Was This Link Useful Google UI Test
Well, today Google started serving me their latest SERP UI test, “Was this link useful?” It only makes sense for them to test this as a viable contributor to their signals of quality and, as always, they need everything they can in the way of usage data to help unpollute the PageRank link map of the current Web.
As a Google user, I like this. It’s not invasive at all. It appears to be an AJAX script that runs when you go back to the SERPs from the site Google suggested. Click “Yes” or “No” and the line disappears. Totally liveable.
As a jackass SEO, I imagine it would be interesting to test a pounding of a result with a natural looking “No” answer profile. Just imagining that, though…
