New Google feature – direct links from search results to Stumbleupon

June 22nd, 2009 · View Comments · Technical Writing

It’s hard to keep up with Google these days. One of the new features is the new text link to the right of the search results URL.
You can see in this example, that when we search for ‘technical writing’, it displays ‘writing’ to the right of each link.

Google to Stumbleupon

And where does this link take you?

Over to StumbleUpon.com

Which then shows results its users have tagged for ‘writing’.

New Google Trick - Go to Stumbleupon

Not sure what the point of all this is.

I would suggest that if your into SEO type activities, you could do worse than focus on StumbleUpon and see how this effects your ranking on Google.

There must be some connection, surely?

Let me know what you think?

PS – the text link only appears on the first page of the search results. The poor devils on the second pages don’t make the cut.

Regards,

Ivan
