Was looking through our logs and noticed a referrer string from someone looking on google.ca for an old freind (ie a company by name - and a site I worked on many moons ago..)..
Anyway - copied and pasted the URL into a browser and low and behold we are #2 & #3 for the search term... (The companies's site deservedly being #1)
Checked on .com and .co.uk and we're nowhere to be seen in the search results.. so figured it must be Google thinking we're Canadian and bumping us up.. but... having looked at .de, .fr, .it and many other .[country] domains we always appear #2 or #3.. However I've looked at ten www-XX.google.com datacenters by name, and www, www2, www3 and .co.uk and we're nowhere.. They appear to be completely different indexes..
So.. to cut a long story short ( too late perhaps ;) ) does anyone know which is the index on it's way in and which is on it's way out - would like to know largely because I want to know if our traffic/load is about to double..
Thanks in advance.. do hope this isn't a FAQ!..
Good to be back!
TTFN, :)
Will keep an eye... :)
Still intruigued that there seem to be two different indexes or algo's ....
