This week at Search Engine Roundtable we covered a wide range of SEO/SEM topics. Most recently, AltaVista & AllTheWeb bid farewell to Add URL whereas, Microsoft announces it will launch its MSN search service in July. Yahoo in its attempt to catch up to Google’s popularity, has released a Beta Yahoo Toolbar with WebRank, and Google in its attempt to catch up with Yahoo’s yellow page success releases local results in main stream results.

More topics on Google include; people perceive that AdWords has a flaw in its budget allocation system, AdSense adds enhanced reporting features, AdSense also adds graphics to its banners, and Google takes a look at your JavaScript code (what are you trying to hide?). SEMPO is asked tough questions and to wrap up Dan Thies talks about keywords. All this happened the week of St. Patrick’s Day.

That highlights the major coverage over at the Search Engine Roundtable.
