Google......

[Pablo]

I need the cheapskate method for increasing visibility in Google searches. I've done the GoDaddy.com thing....and frankly it's been disappointing. The response has been underwhelming.

Try this, Google "Pablo Amsoil" - hey look, cool I'm Number #1 in the freebie pile, but:

A) There are two Amsoil weasels ahead of me. Paid, I guess.
B) BITOG is #2 in freebie, but why the choice of a cornball thread as daughter to #2? (How did they come up with that thread??)

Maybe I need to know more how Google works.

My website does better on yahoo search than google search. Why? I'm not paying.

If I am to buy Amsoil oil, my search would be "buy Amsoil oil". How does your website fare with that search string?

I would be lost in the rabble....who knows....probably beyond page 20. That's part of the problem. There is no way with just two "general" key words I'll end up on top.

So how did #1 get into that position?

Well "Do lime green tights make you look masculine?" hit sure isn't helping business....

I Googled "how to get listed first in Google", and got quite a few promising information sites.

Day-yum. That's good! Use google against/for google.

I find it amusing that "rocks" appears in the first line when you go looking for Pablo.

You're lucky. If you put Gary Allan Amsoil in google, I'm right at the top. If you put Gary Allan alone ..you get 97 pages of the C&W singer.

Actually #1 is this:

I see the pattern - the linked site has high traffic.

Yes, but you find me (Captain Jack Sparrow: "but you have heard of me") . Try putting Pablo and rocks in google and see where that takes you.

Pablo doesn't even believe in rocks.

People are finally noticing that Google's catchy "Do no evil" motto has been replaced with the more accurate "Do nothing for free."

Google managed a good coup in search engines. I used to use Metacrawler that used (IIRC) 13 search engines at once. I haven't even looked at it for years

edit: I just used Metacrawler and it finds my name with some posts ..but all the links are dead due to "theoildropserver" as opposed to bobistheoilguy.com
