Amazon dumping paid search affiliates / associates

      Twitter don’t need SEO

      Greetings All,

      I spotted this post over at Dave Naylor’s blog today.

      In the post, he & the commentors are berating twitter for ‘getting it wrong’ – “I bet their inhouse SEO feels like a right cock now”.

      Do they (twitter) really care though? do they need their pages to be ranked in google? do they need trending topics (which are just links to searches) to be indexed? would google index links to search results anyway? My guess is that twitter couldn’t give a rats ass about SEO – what do you think?
