Attention America!!

Errr...

...was someone talking when they should have been listening again ? does this ring any bells from just the previous post?

...since taking the town of "Superior" in the USA siege, during the ongoing superior seo services campaign, which is showing most clearly in the Google ** Superior Small Business ** search

..We will accept your conditional surrender in the above search at any point, conditions as below:

The immediate surrender of Dolly Parton & Barbara Streisand

Immediate & full renounciation of Country & Western Music

We must see at least 100 million hits to Ibiza Global Radio per day from the USA within 2 weeks or we will take your title search in the name of the Ibicenc SEO Warriors and laugh at you from on high. ;)

over and out.

???????

..well we werent messing about and we got fed up with your insolence.

Streisand and Country & Western are NON NEGOTIABLE and so we took it anyway.

We hereby claim this on behalf of the Ibicenc SEO warriors, and you should consider yourselves laughed at until further notice.

..don't make us come after Superior Business too.. you have been warned.

Google Analytics & funny things people type

Apart from being a fundamental analysis and feedback tool, Google analytics / webmaster tools is also a never ending source of amusement at the things people type, and the sometimes random things you accidentally rank for.

here's a few of ours and our clients hits from April that have made us chuckle.

• Us: Ibiza + fairy "nice" - #1
• Us: design fairy dust - #5
• Us: superior small? - #3
• Us: hq pleasure blog - #2
• Us: classy phrases - #2
• Us: blog horse march 2008 dofollow - #8 (..seo @ work :)
• Client: inhibriated dictionary - #4

and (un)surprisingly since taking the town of "Superior" in the USA siege, during the ongoing superior seo services campaign, which is showing most clearly in the Google Superior Small Business search

SEO War

Well, we're feeling a bit like we expect the fighting Americans feel at the moment, overstretched and fighting on several fronts, against some tough opposition on the Business SEO search and as ever the boys are dug in waiting for reinforcements to turn up.

However ** SEO War** looks like a fairly easy term, and as we're floating around there @ #6 without having made any effort whatsoever for it, so may as well take that too on the way past.

We're not even going to bother with an assault page for this one, we'll just get one of the stable lads to pick it up on the way back from the SEO Mallorca Campaign.

The term is also slightly ironic because although we jest about all this in our silliness, it is sometimes a bit like a war between different webmasters for search positioning, and between local rival businesses.

..and especially so in a small place like Ibiza where everybody is all trying to do the same thing, and as soon as anyone sees someone else doing well, they all think that copying them is the way to succeed.

We think that generally, it's not. Standing out with something unique is a much better idea ;)

Blogging for SEO - Fast Indexing

The SEO Forums are full of people asking how to get their sites and pages indexed quickly. by far the best way we have found is to include the page links into a "trusted" blog, ie, one that when you ping Google, they come running and index quickly.

There seems to be an optimum posting frequency to maintain to keep your blog in this category, at about 8-10 posts per week, but anything more than twice weekly seems to ensure you don't get demoted to just getting cached whenever they fancy it.

So say we had just taken over the optimisation of this site www.cardamomcatering.com ...following a server move, and have been making changes and want them to come and look at the new pages..

• catering ibiza

• wedding catering ibiza

• sitemap

...then, probably the best way we could do that would be to make a blog post about it and include the links. In usually only a day or two the pages will be in the index.

All the people in the forums are more likely asking how to get their first site into the index and hence get to the "trusted" scenario initially..

...Content, content, content and then link to it. :)
