I was doing some research recently into how Google works so that I can improve the ranking of my other websites. We all know that content is king, and I’ve always been very sceptical about using SEO to improve rankings, preferring, perhaps naively, to create a pleasant site with interesting information in the areas that I work in; these are not mainstream so I’m unlikely to get business directly from the web. So my playing with my sites is safe from a financial point of view.
However …
I’ve now got Google to index this blog. And I’m pretty disappointed to discover that my entries are in the supplementary index which is clearly not a good thing.
I’m confused as to why this should have happened as blogs, particularly Blogger ones, are supposed to be loved by Google.
So experiment time …
I’ve changed the name of the blog for reasons I won’t bore you with and rewritten the description to make it more relevant to me and what this blog is about.
It will be interesting to see if this makes a difference when Google makes another pass in a few weeks time.
I’ll keep you posted!
