Create HTML Signatures Right Inside Gmail

Gmail Signatures Step-by-Step

Step 1: Go to Gmail Settings –> Labs and enable “Canned Responses” as well as “Inserting Images.”

Step 2: Compose a new message in Gmail and create a signature just like you would compose any other email message. Be creative!

You can either upload logos and icons* from the computer or use images that are already on the web. I suggest the former style as that will permanently embed the image into your email signature.

[*] You can find images of icons through Google Image Search. Go to Advanced options under image search and type 12 for height and width (use 16px if you are looking to add slightly bigger icons). While optional, you may also select the filetype as PNG or GIF for transparent backgrounds - see example.

Step 3: Once your happy with the formatting and layout of your new “HTML signature,” go to the Canned Response menu and Save – give some logical name like “Personal” for a signature that you want to attach to your personal emails

Google Changes SEO Game with Instant Search

With the new Google Instant Search now as you type for search terms Google will update the SERP pages in real time as you are typing and try to predict what you are looking for.
I was going to do a search for “Real Time Search” but while typing in Real Time into Google Search bar it assumed I was looking for Real Time Flight Tracker and already had displayed search results.
Google Changes SEO Game with Instant Search
In theory had I found what I was looking for with my first 2 keywords I may not have even typed further, so what this means is that bloggers, companies and users targeting keywords now must consider that Google will display results before they finish typing.  You not only need to use the “base keywords” of SEO terms, but look to see what Google tries to “assume” and possibly leverage some of those as well to increase your chances of your page showing up while a user is typing and hopefully they will see and stop before they type past what you were targeting.
No doubt about it, this change alters the SEO Landscape and no matter what the mega bloggers tell you, there is nobody with enough experience except Google themselves who will be able to tell you how to optimize for this new methodology of search.  I also this can lead to search distraction as a user may not even finish typing their search only to find a link to another site which may take their interest away form their original search topic.
Well, this is one Technology Blogger who is curious to see how this will affect the SERP rankings and SEO of my sites and I am wondering if there will be negative or positive results.
