  • #11 – My personal blog, BlueCapra.com (Up 35 places from last week at #46) – With my picture I may add
  • #37 – My LinkedIn profile page (Up 65 places from last week at #102)
  • #56 – Comment I made on AndyTraub.com 2 months ago (Up 51 places from last week at #107)

1st on Google - Search for Alan ReevesThis week was great for my journey to 1st on Google.  Considering the first five search results where I appear, I jumped up 35 places to #11 and overall, I increased a total of 223 places.  That’s great considering last week I only increased a total of 6 places (45 points up for the first occurrence, 39 points down for the next four occurrences)

The search was performed on my work laptop after I had cleared the cache, browser history, etc.  On top of that, I used Google Chrome (which I don’t normally use).  The search setting I used was similar to the first weeks (cleared cache, 10 search results, non-instant results, strict filtering, etc).  In order to verify that the results did not change, I performed the same search on my desktop computer using Firefox about 30 minutes after the first search.  The results were the same.  I feel confident that the computer and browser does not affect the search results.  From this point one, I will do the search on whatever computer and browser is convenient (excluding my personal laptop).
