		<description><![CDATA[Generally when it comes to software, web-based or otherwise, a user should always have the most recent version available.  However, while Drupal 7 includes many functionality and performance improvements relative to Drupal 6, the latter has been extensively tested by the development community and has more complete documentation.  So which version of Drupal is the right solution for your project? Modules Most of the value from using Drupal comes from its extensibility through modules and themes. However modules built for Drupal 6 will not work &#8230; <a href="http://www.dbswebsite.com/blog/2012/02/15/drupal-6-vs-drupal-7-finding-the-right-solution/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

When a client comes to us with a question, it is our job to steer them in the right direction, and away from any situations that could harm their reputation. Recently, we were confronted with a question that to most would seem harmless enough. To jump-start a new campaign, a client was considering purchasing an email list. The allure of purchasing an email list is often hard for some businesses &#8230; <a href="http://www.dbswebsite.com/blog/2012/02/08/email-lists-to-buy-or-not-to-buy/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Think Google’s algorithm changes are determined only by a mathematical equation run by a gigantic computer? Think again! Since at least 2004, Google has utilized the services of third party companies to hire search quality evaluators- actual humans who help rate the quality of results and test potential algorithm configurations to see if they work as planned to improve results. I recently learned about Search Quality Evaluators from a Search Engine Land interview with one. Evaluators are asked to test algorithms or potential algorithm changes &#8230; <a href="http://www.dbswebsite.com/blog/2012/02/01/the-people-behind-googles-search-results/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

Aside from the fresh facelift given to your website, your redesign may have also included a Content Management System (CMS), which allows you to take charge of updating your content. Using a CMS rather than a web design professional makes economic sense, and affords you some control without having to learn how to code. Often times though, a basic CMS may lack a bit of functionality that you believe would be beneficial.

Despite early support from the Senate and many major companies, the bills became a target of public scrutiny because of how they would restrict seemingly inherit freedoms of the Internet.  SOPA and PIPA are not protested because they attempt to enforce existing copyright law, but instead how they would enforce &#8230; <a href="http://www.dbswebsite.com/blog/2012/01/18/sopa-a-problematic-solution/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

Just about every month, Google makes one significant update to the search algorithm, but for every one major change there are many tens of minor changes. The amount of updates last year was reportedly over 600, To help simplify the hundreds of changes that happen each year, Google typically assigns a catchy codename to each major algorithm change.
