No Im not lost, I was logged into my Google Web master tools this morning and saw that my number one search query on google that returned my site has changed to ‘Gavin Taylor’. So I decided to see where I am on various searches, then this time next year I can search again and see how I’ve faired.
| google.co.uk | ||
| search term | search type | search position |
| gavin | web | unknown (page 50+) |
| gavin | uk | page 43, position 5 |
| gavin taylor | web | page 1, position 3 |
| gavin taylor | uk | page 1, position 2 |
| gav taylor | web/uk | page 1, position 1 |
| php developer | web/uk | unknown (page 50+) |
| php developer manchester | web | page 3, position 9 |
| php developer manchester | uk | page 4, position 1 |
not bad results there really, not much to done on searches for my name, going to focus on php developer I think
| bing.com | ||
| search term | search type | search position |
| gavin | web | unknown (page 50+) |
| gavin | uk | unknown (page 50+) |
| gavin taylor | web | page 1, position 3 |
| gavin taylor | uk | page 1, position 2 |
| gav taylor | web | page 1, position 4 |
| gav taylor | uk | page 1, position 2 |
| php developer | web/uk | unknown (page 50+) |
| php developer manchester | web | page 2, position 8 |
| php developer manchester | uk | page 8, position 9 |
interestingly on the web search for ‘gav taylor’, my twitter feed came top.
again searches for my name do quite well, confirms I need to improve seo for ‘php developer’
Will be interesting to see where I end up for these searches in Feb 2011
