Interesting read thanks – This is the first i’ve heard of Google using the number of citations to ascertain ‘branding’ in order to determine search results.

As a system its just as open to corruption and manipulation as the PageRank/Link structure at the moment though – surely SEO’s could pay blogs for mentions and citations rather than links?

Another drawback was mentioned by another user – A fraudulent company could be perceived as being a brand by Google when they get ALOT of negative press. This would serve to reduce the quality of search results, not improve them.

Branding is essential in order to gain trust withing Search engines.

Its a strong signal of trust when loads of high authority domains link to you using a mix of brand a keyword rich anchor texts..

I also agree with your point about references in social media – its a big signalk that cannot be ignored right now in the branding issue.

Brand can be decided only after you see the progress of a particular site or firm after seeing its progress. To become a brand it takes a lot of hard work and lot of work has to be done to become so. If you become a brand then you are the most favorable of all the small sites.

It is very bad on the part of Google to do this. They should also look at the upcoming sites and i am sure many upcoming site have got huge ability to become a brand. After all the sites that are brand today were sometimes before a new site.
