Google Suggests...

As announced on their official blog, Google is going to roll out Google Suggest into it's native search. The feature has been in development through Google Labs since 2004 (no really), by Friday it should be rolled out live to everyone. So what does this mean? Let's take a look at a few points.

  • People Kant Spel: Anyone who has done any SEO or analytics work knows just how bad people can't spell. In fact, the masses are HORRIBLE at using search engines. The "autocompletness" of Google Suggest is going to help millions find the right information.
  • Suggest for Your Business: Creating content or looking for keywords to SEO your website? Well much like using the Google Adwords Keyword Tool, Google Suggest is going to be a great resource to find terms.
  • Death to Typo Squatters: I've always thought typo squatting was pretty messy work. This new feature is going to greatly reduce their traffic. While parked domains tend to fall out of Google SERPs, their red headed step child the typo splog usually gets good placement.
