words, articles, Great question today while talking to a prospect about their corporate blogging strategy and had to think on it for a second:  Does Google ignore articles (the, an, a)  and prepositions (to, under, on) of a search phrase?   How does this effect how I should title my potential Compendium Blogs?

Answer:  Google cares about these most of time...for a couple of reasons --- first, it can change the meaning of a search phrase.  Second, each search phrase has its own set of results...as smart as Google is --- it has an entirely different set of search results for "used cars" or "cars that are used".

So - when you are thinking abut best blogging practices and really best search practices it is important to remember to cast the wide net and go after a variety of search phrases, even if to you it all sounds the same.
