Drum roll please….:

Summary – The search for Alan Reeves

This has been a long journey, going from #91 on 1-25-12 to #1 on 6-22-14, about 2.5 years.  It has been a while since I have been actively pushing my rankings by commenting on blogs, signing up for and optimizing social media profiles, etc.  At long last, my goal has been reached.  In next week’s post, we will take a look at the entire 2.5 years (an amazing 126 weeks).  The data will be crunched, charts will be created, and this project will be put to rest.

Until then, in the immortal words of Dory, “Just keep swimming, just keep swimming…” towards your goals.
