<\/a>The title of this post is not just hype, but a serious question.<\/p>\n

Here is what happened.<\/p>\n

I wrote and published 5 days ago on 4\/24\/2006 my article about my experiences and opinions about the current beta of Google’s new toy called Google Pages. Link to Full Article: Google Pages Demystified<\/a><\/p>\n

It is now 4\/29\/2006, for only 3 hours, because it is right now 3:00 am in the morning here in Fresno\/California. I got my usual email from GoogleAlerts.com<\/a> at around 6:00 pm. GoogleAlerts.com is the commercial version of Google’s Free Service<\/a> with the same name. It has some more features and options that the free version does not have. Anyhow, I use the service to monitor Google Search Results for important things that affect me personally or professionally, such a my Name, Artist Nick Name, Company Name, My Websites etc.<\/p>\n

Here is what I looked at and had me read it twice.
<\/p>\n

The Account is now a bit over a week old<\/b> and the content <\/b>(5 Pages) is up for about 5 days<\/b> now. <\/p>\n

The Site is already in Google’s index and here it comes: outranking<\/b> a lot of old sites for the same key-phrase. It ranked #17 and when I checked now in complete disbelieve, was it still #17<\/b>. The Search Results are for my companies name, VisionOne,Inc.<\/b><\/a> (#24 if you count the indent sub-results). It outranked almost a 100 other websites<\/b> (our clients for the most part), with an estimated 487,000 Pages indexed by Google. <\/p>\n

I am absolutely speechless. This is something for the SEO bloggers to blog about<\/b>. Too bad that this blog is actually about Text Art and Fun Stuff and not SEO, butI I had to post it somewhere :).<\/p>\n

That my Article links to it can’t be enough. It was posted on a few good ranking and Google trusted Sites, but that was 2-3 days ago. It was not like a home page feature at CNN or something like that. It was posted to Digg.com late at night 3 days ago and only 5 people dugg it<\/a> which means that it never saw the light of the day there, not to mention it’s homepage. <\/p>\n

I sent a link to the article to the Google Pages team as feedback after 2 previous emails with stuff that found its way into the article as well. The pages written are quite personal (some people start eating when they are unhappy about something and I start writing to get my mind busy with something else), hence Pulizer Price worthy content can’t be the reason for it either. <\/p>\n

The whole thing became an article by accident and had nothing that would “boost” anything it links to. I simply pieced together and partially rewrote the bunch of comments and feedbacks that came together over a span of 2 days while I was playing with Google’s new Toy. I decided to make an Article out of it, because I realized, that all this stuff might be of interest for somebody. Anyhow …<\/p>\n

The Point is<\/b>, that I can not find any plausible reason to explain this. This blog and site is getting slowly Google’s attention after constant growth from an one-page Website for some years until last December to about 30-something pages or so during the last 4 months.<\/p>\n

I know a thing or two about SEO (without doing it as profession), you can find out more about that on my professional home page<\/a>, if you like (I have some nice free tools there too \ud83d\ude09 ).<\/p>\n

Ideas, anybody?<\/b> I need a little help here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
