If you want to add information about your business, Google <A HREF="http://maps.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=7039&query=website&topic=&type=" REL="nofollow">tells you how to do it</A>.<BR/><BR/>For Google Finance Plus Box, they already have information about stocks and companies. If you search for YHOO in Google Finance, you'll see a lot of stuff about Yahoo, including their homepage. To get that data in the search results, Google treats it backwards.<BR/><BR/>So most of the web pages are associated with a lot of information in Google's specialized searches. Plus Boxes only make the connection between the site/page and that information.<BR/><BR/>For example, this is a blog. Google could show the latest posts, or related information from other blogs next to "Google Operating System" in the search results.Alex Chituhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618542750965508582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-38982942314899084862007-02-21T05:51:00.000-08:002007-02-21T05:51:00.000-08:00Does anyone have any idea how Google adds these Pl...Does anyone have any idea how Google adds these PlusBox to search results? Does Google collects the navigation data from users and determine which are the most relevant items? Does Google Toolbar help with this? I would welcome the idea of PlusBox as it really takes a lot of time browsing here and there before I get the information I really want, now I can preview them before needing to wait for the page to really load.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05347066082440482385noreply@blogger.com
