Resume is the tool to Market yourself, show your professional experience and this is the best tool to give more solid impression on employers mind.

Wikipedia Says

A résumé (French pronunciation: [ʁezyme]) is a document that contains a summary of relevant job experience and education for specific employment search. The résumé is typically the first item that a potential employer encounters regarding the job seeker and is typically used to screen applicants, often followed by an interview, when seeking employment.

Got surprise after reading Title.

But it’s truth that according to Search Engine following titles are different.

• www.site.com
• http://site.com
• http://www.site.com
• http://www.site.com/
• site.com
• site.com/index.html
• site.com/Index.html

Thought we are getting same data using any one of them. Did you notice that when ever your submitting URL for comment or registration form etc are using with www or with out www. If your answer is I am using both and you had do link building for 100 links but according to search engines it might be 50 link for your www URL and 50 for non www URL (just example) Even index.html and Index.html (capital word / character ) is different in terms of Search Engine.

No are you worried that ohh my God what to do ? Don’t get panic. There is a way out of it. It this is known as URL Canonicalization.

What is URL Canonicalization ?

Canonicalization is the process by which URLs are standardized. For example, www.site.com and www.site.com/ are treated as the same page, even though the syntax of the URL is different.

Why Is Canonicalization An Issue For SEO?

Because many times Search Engine treat www.site.com, site.com/ and http://site.com as three different URL but actually it the same URL. This difference will lead you to low PR as there not better link juice or traffic on one URL.

What Conditions Can Cause This Problem?

• Different URLs i.e. www.site.com V/s site.com
• Capital URLS like Default.html and default.html are different URLs.
• If you are forwarding multiple URLs to the same contents.
• If you are generating Dynamic URL based on different conditions and this URL keeps on changing.
• Trailing questions marks, with or without parameters i.e. www.site.com/index.php? or www.site.com/index.php?data=google
• Inaporoprite use of 302 redirect

What the Step needed to solved this problem ?

The following things can help you to get better result for your Link Juice and other benefits.

Fix Your URL

Fix up your URL with www or with out  www. Submit your URL whenever needed in your specific manner. If you decided to go with www.site.com then you should not use any other option.

Use Google Webmasters

Update Google about your preferred domain via Google Webmaster. You can log on to Google Webmaster and then go to Site configuration –> Settings and update your Preferred domain. Check the image bellow.

Use 301 Redirect

You need to write a bellow mention code in your .htaccess file which will redirect your all traffic which comes on http://site.com on www.site.com (Kindly edit site.com with your URL before updating .htaccess) .htaccess is crucial for website just make sure to take backup before editing site.

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^site.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.site.com/$1 [L,R=301]

If you want reverse thing i.e. www.site.com should convert in http://site.com then use following code.

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.site.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://site.com/$1 [L,R=301]

Election fever had started now in India and many people who are using internet regularly can see internet advertisement of L K Advani, Jaagore and some other leading politician of India. Now the question is that will this active campaign can change voters mind or can this provide more information about candidate / party or this will really turning point to get more influence?

As many people know news which is released before few days back that “Narendra Modi beats all in web popularity” . I feel this is just due to Modiji is spreading his brand vertically not horizontally. I mean to say that he was using all media including internet since long. Now this election gives idea to start their own site / blog as they had seen example of Barak Obama at USA and Narendra Modi at Gujarat.

If anyone wants to influence people for getting good votes then they must use this procedure:
(this all things done by political party’s / individuals IT team so don’t thing that any politician is going to do this)

• Promote your work / achievement and present the same in statistical manner or visual manner (I must say here : if any)
• Use social media like Facebook, Twitter up to the mark. If required make micro-blogging atomized.
• Join discussion forum and share your achievements
• Rather spending much on PPC spend it on Banners on specific sites like news site / leading portals / Social Network
• Spend on specific keyword for PPC. You also can make customized ads for different keywords.
• Use all media like News, Photos, Video, Podcast, RSS, Social Networking, micro blogging etc
• Make your site interactive, anyone can ask you question or anyone can post comments. This will give user personal touch.

Any political party or individual can influence voter if they can able to reach to voter and convey about their achievement and manifesto as they are going to target educated and young crowd.

Just check list of active websites which design by / for / about Election 2009 or Political personality (Sorted Alphabetically – suggest me if I am missing anyone)

• http://www.bjp.org
• http://www.congress.org.in
• http://www.jaagore.com
• http://www.lkadvani.in
• http://www.narendramodi.in
• http://www.soniagandhi.org

I think Internet Marketing, Social Media Optimization is necessary for all who want to get more audience if they are politicians or if they are business person.
