Some good news coming from Google is that they have finally updated “Google Related” to show a more complete view of related sites. This is excellent for competitive intelligence. For example, if I do a query for: related:webmarketingnow.com in Google right now, I get about 9 sites returned.

However, going to the new datacenter located at 64.233.187.104 and do the same, I am given 30 and they are much more on target. In fact, many of the new listings are people and or companies that I have done business with in the past. That is a good thing.

Let your mind wander on this a bit as you begin to figure out ways to use this to your advantage. I will be doing a video soon that will incorporate these new findings into ways to uncover key strong holds of your competitors.
