Google Searches and Doing It Right

I asked Aamir to whom he’d wanted to show my site. It turned out it was a cli­ent. He wanted a real world example of how to get con­sist­ent good res­ults on search engines, (without hav­ing to reveal any secrets) and used a google search for my name as an example. I’ve been num­ber one for a search on my name since a few days after I star­ted my blog. I haven’t moved off the top spot since then. That was also up from about page 4 (from older, no longer updated, sites of mine). Cool. I wish he’d told me though, I could have told him about the post I made recently Bad Fel­low­ship Of The Ring Cap­tions which had me at num­ber one (above the site about which I was post­ing) in less than 48 hours!

Dandy Made It

Woot! I had to work late tonight to help imple­ment Pro­ject Dandy’s CMS sys­tem into the live admin envir­on­ment on the main­frame. And it worked! Apart from one minor hic­cup, I for­got we need to add a new row into a DB table, everything went swim­mingly. All ini­tial tests seem to indic­ate it’s fine.
Even my hast­ily thrown together code to pop­u­late one of the new tables worked!
