Its Super Bowl Sunday
Hey its Super Bowl Sunday! just when you thought all the holidays were over. Its time to sit back and feast on Super Bowl snacks drink micro brews and root for the New England Patriots! (or whoever your rooting for) I’m not a huge American Football fan honestly and I barely follow it.
Of Course living in Maine I do root for the Patriots since they are a New England team and all. Plus I love to munch out and drink beer with family and yell out obscenities at the TV now thats fun!!
Now here is something funny that I found … when you do a google search for “super bowl” in the SERP’s on the front page I noticed these two sites:
according too google these are two different websites well on further inspection the www.superbowl.com just redirects to the URL www.nfl.com/superbowl so essentially they are the same website but showing up twice in the google serps. Now I know a thing or two about SEO and duplicate content and it seems to me that google should technically slap a duplicate content penalty on one of those sites. Unless perhaps the NFL are using cloaking techniques and are serving up an entirely different page of content to google bot so that they can dominate the super bowl search results. I know this is old news google has been silently letting certain companies get away with cloaking their websites for a while now even though its blatantly against their google webmasters guidelines. Google has become very hypocritical in my opinion. When they allow this kind of website behavior to go on unpunished but yet they are the Google Gestapo when it comes to paid links and paid blog reviews.
Sorry about the google rant I know I got a little bit off topic. Enjoy your Super Bowl Sunday and hopefully your team wins (if your team is the Patriots of course). Heres a really yummy recipe that I will be making for tonite Sweet Bacon Wraps delicious and easy!
