A trust agent places himself in a position of trust, and then leverages this unique position. I could simply place a list of my web services on this very page, but instead I am educating you, and in the process trying to become a trust agent. I don't just offer web services, I "own" them.

Understanding how to leverage this trust is what makes some sites successful. Do you understand how to take what you’re doing in one instance and extend it out into something bigger or better elsewhere? This is the Archimedes Effect.

If you have had a web presence for many years, and built up some trust with Google and Yahoo, moving or changing your site incorrectly could have disastrous effects. Have you heard of people just "losing traffic"? Most often it is self induced!

Why is that?

The key thing to understand here is that Google ranks web pages, not web sites. Let's say you have a site for years with the following three pages - index.html, aboutus.html, and services.html and Google has you nice and cataloged with links going to these exact pages. Now you upgrade to a content management system, which has pages called index.php, about-us.php and services.php.

The names are different, and in the process of changing your site, you are pulling the three pages you have had listed with Google, and providing an error page instead. Google does not like error pages. Soon, your rankings will begin to drop. Your new site will start building back up over time, but who wants to start from scratch?

Likewise, improperly forwarding a domain (web address) without a proper domain alias can be catastrophic. You must move your chess pieces wisely. Having your secretary manage your domain without any knowledge of the underpinnings of domain and server management, can take you out of the web game without even knowing it. Watch this video on redirects, which can catch old web page addresses, and forward them to new pages, while keeping Google happy and content.
