| | I've been spending an inordinate amount of time thinking about Navi's, Bessemer Venture Partners Entrepreneur-in-Residence and one of the people working on Songbird, Trillion Dollar Web 2.0 Matrix. It basically is a matrix that lines up content with scope, if you can fill the hole with a service you should have a billion dollar company. Of course there is a huge difference between knowing the niche and being able to fill it. Hope this give others something to think about.

| I think if you combine the Trillion Dollar Matrix with the Million Dollar Home Page, then you'll have a, uh, Gawdzillion Page Matrix Home!

| Technically it would be a Quintillion dollar matrix page.

| | Thanks, this is a really interesting post. One thing I find really interesting about Google is that it doesn't track clicks in search results. It tracks AdWords clicks, true, but its system has no built-in mechanism for assessing the quality of its search results. The human eye/brain is far better than any algorithm at scanning a set of search results and assessing relevance. I'm happy that Google doesn't track what I am clicking on (plus getting to the link I want is faster because it doesn't have to redirect through a click logger) like other search engines, but I am also getting tired of weeding through tons of crap in Google to find what I am looking for. |

| I'll let you in a a secret, Google does count clicks in the organic results. It's a large part of the ranking algorithm. The more times is is clicked in the search results page the higher it's ranking becomes. They don't keep track of who clicked it, but it does know that someone found it more relevant than the returns ranked above it. Gotta love "secret" algorithms. I have a technical report on how AdWords bidding system works, but I don't recommend it unless you have a perverse love of 3D vector math.

| | How? Their links go directly to the sites, not to a redirector. Look at the anchor tags in the source. Did I miss something? |

| Checked with our software team and it looks like I'm wrong. They increase the ranking for relevance only in CPC (AdWords) advertising ranking for relevance.
