SEO Christmas song - Jingle bells cover "Analyze Optimize"


Lyrics for the SEO Christmas song (Jinge bells cover):

Dancing through the SERPs, 
keywords are on their way. 
To the top we go, 
is were we want to stay. 
Sourcecode clean and smooth 
H1 is in its place.
Let's go longtail and begin on a new landing page

Analyze optimize, 
need I say it twice?
Spam and black-hat cloaking 
are not choices that are wise 
Analyze optimize,
what is the grand price?
Getting tons of traffic,
oh you won't believe its size

2)
You know what Santa says 
that good content is king. 
If you please your users
more traffic it will bring. 
Yes Google+ is new,
but please don't leave it blank.
Let's get social and begin improving AuthorRank.

Analyze optimize,
we just want to rise
Traffic and convertions 
reaching record-breaking heights. 
Analyze optimize,
Begin to Googlize
Soon you'll see your S-E-O 
starts to monetize

3)
Be aware of Panda
pages cannot be thin.
If you build spammy links
you'll get hit by Penquin
Fix duplicate content
although it seems complex
You may set meta-robots to nofollow, noindex

Analyze optimize
Santa never flies,
with his sleigh unless his route
with Google Maps complies
S-E-O never dies
just a kind advice
So have a merry Christmas and then start to optimize

Google Christmas Spam Fighting & Webmaster Support

Google representatives have been in the webmaster forums helping webmasters with their SEO and webmaster related questions all Christmas eve and day.
There are dozens of threads that Google's John Mueller has responded to both on Christmas eve and day. Plus, Google's Zineb also has been responding today.
Of course, Google's lead spam fighter, Matt Cutts reminds us on Twitter that no matter what, spam fighting never rests:

One example is that Google penalized Rap Genius last night/this morning for link schemes.
This is not uncommon, where Googlers respond and help over the weekend. We see it year, after year, year, after year, year and after year.
I am sure the spammers don't like it but some do.

December 6th 2013 PR Update: Christmas Gift From Google

Google constantly like to entertain people with their unexpected updates and launches. As for year 2013 Google page rank update, we surely lost all the hope to observe an update, and astonishingly Google started giving out a PR update immediately prior to the end of the year. On 6th December 2013, Webmasters all over the world started mentioning regarding the Page rank update.



But this seems to be a minor Page rank update from Google as i have noticed most of the websites have been demoted. Indeed its a surprise update by Google as Google spam head "Matt Cutts" had already announced on twitter that there wont be any Page rank update this year,although he hinted for a major Update might be expected before end of the year. It was most awaited Page rank ever and only second page rank update this year(earlier it was in Feb).  We can expect a major page rank update soon may be in February next year.
