Search engine optimization for Google News

Follow the link above or click below to have a listen of how Google search ranks news stories. Bob Garfield interviews Brent Payne, director of search engine optimization for Tribune Interactive. While searching for Garfield's Bio, I found this great one-liner, "Bob Garfield isn't exactly a media whore, but he's extremely promiscuous." Also linked here is the video Google posted on Google News, featuring Maile Ohye, Developer Programs Tech Lead. Ohye focuses on three main points during the video: 1. Ranking Factors, 2. FAQs from SEOs and Publishers, and 3. Best Practices to Publish. Cheers!
