yesterday Google introduced a new feature
it’s basically a Facebook like button – just from Google, and no, we don’t know yet why you should use it (or why we should promote it), but we want to find out.
so either do it for us or do it for science
thx
That was easy!
Wir sind Nr. 1 bei den Einzelangeboten. Bei ÖWA getrackten Websites. Im Februar. Sortiert nach Unique Clients.
Danke an all die User die uns auf diesen Weg begleitet haben.
Und an all die User, welche uns jeden Tag neu entdecken.
Den geübten Zahlen-Checkern unter euch wird beim Betrachten der ÖWA-Liste natürlich auffallen, dass hier
Äpfel mit Birnen (bzw. Kiwis, siehe Bild oben) verglichen werden (z.B. dass wir “Anteil PI aus AT in %” nicht berücksichtig haben). ÖWA Zahlen sind ein wichtiges Marketinginstrument in Österreich und bei Marketingzahlen sucht man sich natürlich aus, welche man wie kommuniziert. :)
Wir finden das toll. Wir finden euch toll. Danke. Zeit den Sekt aufzumachen.
A verified link is a spot link that has been editorially classified as being ‘awesome’ (or at least ‘useful’) and therefore has a lovely green check mark (or tick, if you prefer) next to it.
i.e.:
Tupaleros (Tupalo community members) with the special “Secret Order of Tupalo” badge can do this – but only if the link fulfills certain pre-defined criteria.
1) It must be the one and only official website of that business.
This means: no links to Facebook fan pages, no links to directories, and no links to anywhere but the official business site.
2) The site must fulfill basic accessibility standards.
This basically means: “NO FLASH ONLY SITES” (basically just because we don’t like Flash.)
3) The site must offer some information that is currently not displayed on Tupalo.com.
E.g. an up-to-date menu, honest product information, or anything else that makes it worth a visit.
4) There must be no affiliation between the reviewer and the business (website) reviewed.
In general, if you think, “Hey, that website is cool – and I want to tell other people,”, go ahead and verify the link.
That’s a secret. But once every full moon (or so), in a secret meeting, we choose some “Power Users” – Tupaleros who have written a lot of high quality reviews – to join.
No. Contacting the Tupalo.com team will also not help. It’s a community member decision, but if you tell some of your customers to give you a **honest** review on Tupalo.com, there is a chance that some of our old school Tupaleros will see the review. Then, if your website is awesome (and if the Tupalero has the “Secret order of Tupalo” badge), there is nobody stopping him or her verifying the link.
That said, any confirmed report of a business owner spamming or bribing a Tupalero to verify a link will result in the blacklisting of that specific link.
If we find verified links that can clearly be identified as spam, we’ll kick the user out of the “Secret Order” and revert all his or her verified links back to unverified.
Well, the small green check mark is one thing, but there’s something else going on in the background. All our spot links are “nofollow”, which is a technology to discourage spam. As anybody can add a spot to Tupalo.com, we want to make sure that spammers don’t try to … well … spam us. But… this “nofollow” is a little bit unfair, because a lot of websites are actually pretty cool. So a verified link is set to “dofollow”, which is just a plain old direct link. So even though this is a small feature, it makes us potential vulnerable to spam – which is not something we want. That’s why we make such a fuss (and such long FAQ) about it.
Remember: life is beautiful. Have fun and, now and then, take some time to look up to the sky.

Ein “Vertrauenswürdiger Link” ist ein Spot Link, welcher von einem Editor als “super” (oder zumindest als “sinnvoll”) befunden wurde. Man erkennt einen “Vertrauenswürdigen Link” am grünen Hackal.
z.B.:
Tupaleros (Tupalo Community Members), welche die “Secret Order of Tupalo” Badge ihr Eigen nennen, können Links kennzeichnen – wenn diese Links gewissen Kriterien entsprechen.
Das heisst: Keine Links zu Facebook Fan pages, keine Links zu irgendwelchen Directories, einzig und allein der Link zur Unternehmenswebsite kann verifiziert werden.
Im Großen und Ganzen heisst das: KEINE FLASH ONLY SITES. Flash ist so Nuller-Jahre.
Also Infos haben, welche auf Tupalo.com nicht zu finden sind z.B.: die aktuelle Speisekarte, brauchbare Produktbeschreibungen oder sonst etwas Sinnvolles.
Keine Freundalwirtschaft.
Einfach gesagt: Nur wenn die Website wirklich cool ist, vergib’ ein Hackal.
Auf gar keinen Fall (nie und nimmer) darf es einen entgeltlichen (oder sonstwie materiellen) Vorteil für den Editor geben, wenn er einen Link als “vertrauenswürdig” erklärt.
Nun ja, das ist geheim. Jeden Vollmond treffen sie sich, und vergeben diese speziellen Badges in grausamen Ritualen an so genannte Power Tupaleros (Tupaleros, welche eine große Anzahl hochqualitativer Reviews schreiben).
Nein, geht leider nicht. Selbst wenn ihr eine Email an Tupalo.com schreibt, machen wir das nicht. Es ist eine reine Tupalo Community Entscheidung. Aber nun ja, wenn ihr euren Kunden erzählt, sie sollen euch eine ehrliche Bewertung auf Tupalo.com schreiben, dann steigt natürlich die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass ein “Secret Order of Tupalo” Tupalero euren Spot entdeckt, eure Seite toll findet und das grüne Hackal vergibt. (Das sind ziemlich viele “wenn” und “vielleicht”, aber einen anderen Weg gibt es nicht).
Sollten uns Berichte zu Ohren kommen, dass Tupaleros zugespammt wurden – oder mittels materieller Vergünstigungen angeregt wurden einen Link zu verifizieren, werden wir den betroffenen Link auf eine un-verifizierbare Blacklist setzen.
Wenn wir “vertrauenswürdige” Spam Links finden, wird der entsprechende Tupalero aus dem “Secret Order of Tupalo” verbannt und alle von ihm / ihr verifizierten Links rückgängig gemacht.
Hmm, das grüne Hackal ist nur EINE Ausprägung des verifizierten Links – es passiert auch einiges im Hintergrund. Alle unsere Spot Links sind eigentlich “nofollow”. Nofollow ist eine Technologie um Spammer nicht zum spammen zu ermuntern. Da jeder User bei Tupalo.com einen Spot eintragen kann, haben wir das als Sicherheitsmaßnahme eingeführt. “Nofollow” ist aber ein bisschen unfair, da es viele coole Webseiten gibt und die haben ein “nofollow” nicht verdient. Wird ein Link als vertrauenswürdig gekennzeichnet, verwandelt er sich in einen “dofollow” Link (einen guten alten “direkt Link”). Damit macht sich Tupalo.com potentiell angreifbar für Spammer, deswegen der ganze Aufwand mit dieser ultralangen FAQ.
Das Leben ist schön, geht manchmal raus und schaut in den Himmel, es zahlt sich meistens aus. Habt Spass.

Die Überschrift ist die Antwort auf die Frage “Hey du, wieviele Billa gibt’s eigentlich in Wien?” “Das ist doch ganz einfach, basierend auf den Tupalo.com Daten für Österreich gibt es in Wien 261 Billa.”.
Oder eine andere Frage: “Hey Horstl, geh’ma zur Aida?” “Sicherlich, zu welcher der 27?”
