WebProWorld

Post by faglork opens discussion and links to some useful articles on LSI theory and practise
He writes "I will try to find more information, above all on 'if and how do existing SEs already use LSI'"

Greeneagle quotes http://www.bayst-search-engine-optimization.com/LSI.html:
"Anchor Text Repetition: another form of duplication is the presence of repetitive anchor text in links (e.g., web promotion) pointing to a site. The overuse of anchor text in links is one of the major reasons LSI was brought in."

voasi supplies "a list of LSA/I topics and papers: http://www.voasi.com/2005/02/lsa-for-better-google-rankings.htm

Here's a quite lengthy thread over at Search Engine Watch that goes into the dymanics of LSA, with some PH.d's and Grads getting into the discussion which really helps to break down the complexity of the subject. http://forums.searchenginewatch.com/showthread.php?t=4009"
