Clicking for Ranking

Live Product Search

This post is for those of you trying to get higher on the Google charts for your specific keywords. I picked up the tip from my good friend Mark Jones who found it at GoogleGuide.com (a great resource by the way).

Essentially this is the key: don’t go to your own site via bookmarks or even directly by typing in the URL. You’ll improve your pagerank more if you go to your site through the search engine itself. So, type in your desired keyword(s) and find your site among the masses and click on it through Google. When you do this, Google’s algorithms recognize that the keyword you were searching for matched the site you clicked on. Thus, your pagerank goes up for that particular keyword.

Now, this does not just work in theory, but it works in actual principal. The case in point here is NateatNight.com, my sleep talking recordings site. What Mark did for the past week was search Google for “sleep talking.” Then he would go to page two where we were ranked somewhere in the top 15 or so. Then, he’d click on Nate at Night :: Sleep Talking Recordings. He did this several times over a couple of days and viola! The site is now on page one, position 6 for the keyword “sleep talking.” Not too shabby if you ask me.

So, if you want to be numero uno for a particular keyword, start searching out that keyword, find yourself in the haystack of sites that appear and click. It may take some time, but the more you go at it, the greater chance you have of getting to the top. So click for rank baby!

 

Nate at Night.

So, it’s up again…and I’m finally posting again. Some of you close friends will remember that back in 2005, I started a website with two of my programmer roommates, Tena and Mark. The entire purpose of the site was to showcase my random sleep somniloquies (sleep talking).

Nate at Night shows how weird my subconscious can be. I rap, I sing, I make up all sorts of odd sayings. It’s all legit of course. We definitely wouldn’t have spent all the time we’ve spent on a site that was fake. It just wouldn’t have been worth it at all. Sometimes when I wake up and listen to my voice activated recorder of the things I’ve said during the previous 6 or 7 hours, I laugh out loud. Where does it all come from? I’m such a weirdo.

Well, as many of you know, I was running a website with Mark Jones which chronicled my sleep talking recordings at night. I’d just record, using a voice activated recorder, and then post them online. I haven’t done it now for over a year. But, soon the site will be fully functional again and you all will have the grand old opportunity to listen to my nightly disturbances.
