Tracking Google (Update)

A search of the keyword "rheology blog" puts this blog at #5.  For some reason, the post on iTunes is selected as representative, even though it was posted in February.  Even though he often uses the word "rheology" in his blog, John's Rheo Thing blog isn't listed.  Searches of "rheology blogger" and "rheology blogspot" bring up his work.

  1. Too funny, especially when the top result is the Zimbio blog and it's one post from almost 5 years ago.

    I reran the search with "rheology blogs" and suddenly mine is there.

    Looks like Google is optimized for the big action and not the long tail.

  2. If you type in site._blog name_.blogspot.com, you can see if your blog is indexed by Google. Both our blogs are indexed.
