I haven't been tracking inktomi much lately, altho I used to do a lot of it. I've let most of the 60+ urls I once bought into positiontech expire this past year, I think I have about 15 left, and so far I can't say I see any traffic rise, altho I've been wondering if I would with the yahoo thing.
It used to be if you were in one of two different INK databases, the BOW and the more recent free "slurp" database, ink would spider endlessly off those urls into your whole network. I don't know if this is still as true as it was, there was speculation that ink would devalue those older databases and move to pure pay-to-spider. Ink itself said, and all the "experts" I talked with agree, that ink did not EVER spider off pay-to-spider pages, it spiders only the page paid for. Unless you have a unique keyword, you have to have about 100+ links in the free ink databses in order to rank well, you need 400+ for more competitive terms. It's a very simpleminded linkpopularity algo and is extremely vulnerable to script generated pages. If you have old domains, like 1999-2000, chances are good they are in one of the two free (arguably there are more than two, but I condense them for simplicity) databases and you can use them to generate linkpop. Still, I have been disappointed with ink for the past 18 months. |
