Title: Apparently my evil plan to take over the intertubes,,, WORKS!! or not...
Post by: 280plus on March 21, 2011, 10:39:23 AM
Bwaaahhhaahahahahaaaaaaa...

Do a search on "Jon Herington", see if my abriefepisode.com/herington address is on the first page of results. Please? Please don't click on it unless you really really have to though.  =)

If so congratulate Mr Tuttle on a job well done! I know it comes up at like #5 on mine.

Or not,,,

Are search results tailored to the individual over time? So like, If I search on the same name "jon Herington" a lot it will go up the ranks on my list but noone elses?

it'd be real helpful that if you don't see my page on the first page go back a few pages and see if it's showing up anywhere ?

Sorry.  Searching for  "jon herington" in quotes I didn't see your url until the fifth listing on page 10.  Searching without quotes took me directly to "http://www.jonherington.com/" instead of a list of results.

I think Mr. Tuttle now needs to compensate us all with an amusing or titillating post of some kind.  =D

That's ok. I generally search IE (I guess) without quotes and get a list with his site at the top. What engine are you using?

Thanks, overall those results aren't bad considering how new the pages are. would everyone agree they should climb up the list as time goes by?

jonherington.com is #2 on the first page, but abriefepisode.com/herington  is not on anything up to page 13 -- and your name drops off at page 12.

Are you sure you/Harold muttered the correct incantations?  Sometimes a small change in one sylable can make all the difference.

stay safe.

yup, checked it on the kid's computer and found it at the bottom of page 10 in the yahoo search. I saw it on page 15 just a few, maybe 5 days ago, so it does seem to be making progress.

Post by: Harold Tuttle on March 21, 2011, 10:54:13 PM
well part of the problem is having exclusive terms that only your website would have

"a fistful of oboes" only leads to one place on the innertubes

the other thing that pulls it up in the rankings is by having other sites link to you

Can you get CD baby to add a link?

Google seems to re$pect them
Title: Re: Apparently my evil plan to take over the intertubes,,, WORKS!! or not...
Post by: 280plus on March 22, 2011, 10:59:23 AM
I do not believe so. They do very little promotion other than flash your CD cover every so often on the main page. They are mostly just a warehouse. I'm not worried. JH's page was on 15 a week ago now it's around 10. That's not bad movement. Too bad I can't use this box to check anymore. PITA...

Like I said, I don't know what sparked the 43 visits. It ebbs and flows but people are definitely finding their way there somehow. CT Guitar has it on their homepage now. That's generated a couple.

very interesting all this computer stuff. Nice to have a good selection of people around here that know their *expletive deleted*it, err, stuff too.  ;)

I'll tell you one thing. Precious few people are going from ABE to the CD baby page. I'm not sure why. I'm hoping that Itunes button is where the payoff is.

well googles spider was on the site march 14th and they crawled the site and ingested the content

getting them to promote the site in web searches is the trick

(https://armedpolitesociety.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fpremium1.uploadit.org%2FdocZox%2F%2Fpizzarsearch.jpg&hash=7115898db02606361a4f4232aef9c3e26710e6f9)

I am thinking if we make some youtube videos,
even if they are 30 second snippits with just image moves,
then link to the site in the comments,
we should move up the hit counts and rankings

Post by: Harold Tuttle on March 24, 2011, 10:25:38 AM
it's always possible that those hits are from robots

Our version of the Scofield / Mayer arrangement.
Rickie Miller vocals, Tony Dioguardi guitar, Stu Woods bass, John Rispoli drums,
Dusty Bobo guitar (not in frame due to inability to secure legal permission to use his likeness)

ask him if he can edit this and add a link

maybe you can comment add a link
