Found a great blog for multilingual search – since I am now a great deal more heavily involved in international SEO and SEM. So for years the most popular ccTLD was .de (Germany) now, this may not come to many as a surprise, China or .cn is the most popular! *FYI: Important factor in optimizing for international – acquire the correct ccTLD please.

This question spurred on by previous post of my list of SEO tools. “do you think its worthwhile to get a professional SEO company to perform the seo work for us. Or to just learn it like you and implement the strategies ourselves?” So, as I commented, this isn’t just a clear cut answer.

Since I generally have an opinnion on most things, I figured I would share mine with you about Chrome. After using this browser for a couple of weeks now my overall opinion is “ok it’s not bad” .
I like that it was built from the ground up, if one tab isn’t working the entire browser doesn’t go to hell. You also have to really like the security features
