[DrunkenSatyr]

lol, how'd you find that out? Did you click on 30 full pages?


use the find in page.....



p.s. I have 100 searches per page.

[Ó Flannagáin]

I don't see the find in page thing. Is it a keyword you put in your search?

[DrunkenSatyr]

You use FF right? It is under Edit

[Ó Flannagáin]

Duh, nice. I didn't realize you could do 100 results a page with google, that makes it a lot easier. I thought you were clicking through 10 results at a time

[ohiobrewtus]

Sweeeeeeeeeet... give it time... they will come.

[Ó Flannagáin]

late addition brewing shows up in the top 7 pages or so.

Google bot has been on the page for quite a while today. I'm not talking the adwords or adsense bot either, but the regular ol' google bot.

[Ó Flannagáin]

[DrunkenSatyr]

diet food recipes....WTF?

[Ó Flannagáin]

I guess one of our recipes in the food section has the word diet in it. Google picks up on the strangest things. And, these aren't necessarily from google, they could be from any search engine that has us listed.

[DrunkenSatyr]

That is it...we need to make an Michalob Ultra recipe.

.5 lbs pale malt
.025 lb carapils
wave a bag of sealed willamett over the 5 gallon boil
chill then rack onto a dirty sweat sock and lager for 1 month.

[Ó Flannagáin]

I'd suggest replacing the carapils with corn sugar... mash around 145

[sanders5x]

watch " Michalob Ultra clone " come up as one of the searches from google now!

[DrunkenSatyr]

LOL

#524 for Home Brew Forum

[Ó Flannagáin]

That's awesome! That is THE search we want to be in. So, we now know google associates us with that search. Hopefully we will keep moving up that list.

[DrunkenSatyr]

Links Links Links. Need to throw links to this site everywhere you can imagine.

[sanders5x]

like http://www.northernbrewer.com ?

[DrunkenSatyr]

Yeah, but that helps them , not us

[sanders5x]

oh, your right, i forgot. Well when I get my personal brew page done, then I'll include this site

[cheesefood]

I see you're advertising. You showed up in my gmail ads in a conversation between me and Rdwj.

[Ó Flannagáin]

I'm really starting to show up in some good searches in google to. I almost always the only ad when searching "how to homebrew" which is killer. I only pay when there's a click thru and I set my limit to like 40 cents max, so I usually pay between 15 and 40 cents a click. I decided to stop advertising with BYO. I got all of 6 click thrus for 60 bucks. I got 2400 impressions, but their click thru rate is terrible and I didn't see my ad once. Not to mention they put me on realbeer.com instead of BYO without telling me. realbeer.com isn't a homebrew specific website. Not happy with their service. I am taking out a text ad in the mar/apr issue of BYO though.

[cheesefood]

Where's your sitemap? Google likes sitemaps these days.

[Ó Flannagáin]

Dunno, never made one. Need to figure that out.

[Ó Flannagáin]

Just found this tool: http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/index.php ... it's building me a google worthy sitemap right now.

[Ó Flannagáin]

Hilarious. Just saw this and had to grab a screen:

[DrunkenSatyr]

That rocks man. I want to see that one on the other board some time!

[sanders5x]

I see I am not the only one to see our own advertising on the site, you think google would be smarter than that!

[DrunkenSatyr]

Do you think they would bump us up the list a bit if we had links to http://www.google.com ?

[Ó Flannagáin]

I dunno, possibly. All my advertisement links go through http://www.google.com. Also, they can't read this forum or the drunk forum/red forum

[Ó Flannagáin]

Makes me think. Should I open this forum up for reading (not posting) by guests and search engines?

[DrunkenSatyr]

Sure. It may show a better sense of community.... and ANY keyword that google can use to find is is a good one.

[Ó Flannagáin]

Done

[Ó Flannagáin]

HBT has a flipping sub result on mine that bumps me back to the second page. I'm number 10 as well.

[Ó Flannagáin]
