Capitalising On The Ultimate Form Of Duplicate Content by Manish703777: 5:35pm On Sep 09, 2021
The first time I ever accessed the Internet was from my mother's work computer in late 1995. I was eleven years old and her homepage was set to Yahoo. I can't really remember what it looked like, but Googling (oh, I hate the irony too) "Yahoo in 1995" produced a post by John Battelle with a magnificent screen cap of the portal in the mid-90s. This was thirteen years ago (so, over half my lifetime), and my memory might not be serving me very well, but I'm fairly sure that the first thing I ever searched for was song lyrics. Probably to a very bad 1995 song. My father wanted to try it next and he searched for the lyrics to "Flower of Scotland." That, I remember.

Today, searching for lyrics is a horrendous task. Most top-ranked lyrics websites look like MySpace threw up on GeoCities and, if I dare to click on a result, inundate my computer with pop-up advertising. Earlier today, I actually stumbled on an instance of a robotic voice congratulating me for having won two iPod nanos. To get a coherent result and not be presented with the "Are You Stupid?" test, you have to memorise which sites are worthwhile to click on.

How do search engines really determine which sites should rank well for song lyrics-related material? This niche seems to be relatively competitive, with advertising being the business model of choice. The first big problem is certainly duplicate content. This is an especially important question when it comes to lyrics because of people's tendency to take a sample of a song they've heard and search for it without knowing the song's name. If there are thousands of instances of the same song present online, how does a site make sure its version is ranked?drow last names

The suggestions Google shows for searches beginning with "lyrics" is a good place to start when analysing what search engines value for these types of searches.
Currently popular music obviously dominates. Choosing the search "lyrics to take a bow," you'll see that Google presents both results for a currently popular song with that name by Rihanna, as well as a track from 2007 by Leona Lewis and a fourteen-year-old song by Madonna. Edit: two YouTube videos have made it into the mix in the last twenty-four hours, taking out the Leona Lewis song.
