    1. Just as a crawler needs to discover your site via links from other sites, it needs a path of links on your own site to guide it from page to page. If you’ve got a page you want search engines to find but it isn’t linked to from any other pages, it’s as good as invisible. Many sites make the critical mistake of structuring their navigation in ways that are inaccessible to search engines, hindering their ability to get listed in search results.

      There are hundreds of possible search results when someone does a search, so how does the search engine choose which information to display? Is a blog article made on a regular basis and  maintaining a regular schedule a good way to ensure that Google crawls your pages more frequently and saves more possible query outcomes for future users? Maybe this is what causes some pages to be buried in other pages on Google searches.

    2. Many beginners wonder about the relative importance of particular search engines. Most people know that Google has the largest market share, but how important it is to optimize for Bing, Yahoo, and others?

      Is this because Google gives easy-to-understand results? Many don't venture past the first page of a search query. Is it because on Google most people are satisfied if the search results they receive are relevant to their search queries? Users who are pleased with their experience are more likely to return, and that could be why it is most used.

    1. In June and July, we asked respondents whether they got any coronavirus news from Facebook, CNN, Fox, MSNBC, the Biden administration or Newsmax.

      Anti-vaccine sentiment on Facebook became so strong that, despite important public health groups such as UNICEF and the World Health Organization urging people to get the vaccine, the organizations declined to utilize free Facebook advertising to promote vaccination.

    2. It’s important to know how many of those people are out there and whether they are more or less likely to be vaccinated than others.

      Facebook is not the place to acquire information on covid. you are bound to get misinformation because anyone can say pretty much anything. Facebook isn't a trustworthy source and things can be thrown around there so easily and reach the wrong audiences. 

    3. While it’s hard to establish whether Biden is right, Facebook’s rebuttal doesn’t provide convincing evidence that he is wrong. It doesn’t compare Facebook users with nonusers, which could help us understand whether there is a meaningful difference in the two groups’ attitudes. More important, it doesn’t talk about the vaccination rates among people who don’t just use Facebook but actually get their coronavirus-related information from it.

      Hundreds of records indicate that during the COVID-19 pandemic, Facebook investigated how its platforms propagated false information about life-saving vaccines. They also disclose that personnel on the ground level often proposed strategies to combat anti-vaccine content on the site, but to no avail. Several articles have been written about Facebook's efforts to address anti-vaccine comments.

    1. “Man Who Killed Amanda Knox’s Roommate Freed on Community Service.” My name is the only name that shouldn’t be in that headline.

      Knox's conduct has changed dramatically over the last few years. Then again, we've witnessed her growth from a student to an adult on the television and in court. In interviews, she acknowledges her regret for not being able to handle the situation more calmly and rationally. The most difficult thing for us is to distinguish the difference from immaturity and guilt. This could have been motive for the news media and tabloids to paint her as a villian.
