First page?
This is very cool to me! I was going to check out the interwebs and see where some of my posts are landing on Google. I learned a trick on WA from, I believe, boomergp08 where you type your search word and switch to images. I didn't get that far because the first thing I saw was my own post in the second spot! Seriously! (I did get that far, my images start on the fourth row! Well, for the first post, didn't see them for the second post) Oh my, and to think the post has only been up for a couple days! I smacked in the keyword for my newest post just out of curiosity and, BAM, another front page post! Now I need to figure out how to expand on my key words without sounding like a billboard so I can catch a wider audience. Enough babble, check out these screen shots!
Interestingly enough I just went back and checked out my links. They go to my Google + page, which will then, of course, lead readers to the actual website. This is odd to me and a bit confusing to travelers, but hey, I'll take it! First page Google, sort of!
Update, as white3322 pointed out, I was signed in to G+. A bit of a disappointment and a big learning experience! I do have an image on row 5 of the first saw, even signed out, so not a complete disappointment! :)

Learning is the name of the game, and sharing is how we learn from that! This is a crazy world, and we are all trying. Getting the words to fit in a sensible manner is a challenge!

All a bit confusing at first as have been down the same road and it all takes time but great that things are happening so you know that at least you are out there - but what about Yahoo???
Page 5 for the first post, didn't see the second post by page 10 and gave up on it. That's pretty good I think though, because it would appear the Yahoo search puts fewer results on each page.
Honestly I don't put too much stock in my page rankings right now, since I am just getting the site going. I would like more content posted before It gets too busy in there, if that makes sense? Like going to the store and the shelves are barren, that store isn't ready for business.
I had the same experience. I was on the first page of Google twice, but they were both posts shared with G+. Then I used the tool and found out that I'm ranked on page 5 which is good considering I had been on page 10.
Thanks much for the tool kennick2015
To find out exactly how you stand in the rankings you should use this tool:

LOL, now that's the way to go! Definitely faster than going page by page... That is bookmarked and stuck in my marketing folder. Thanks!
hi Ken,
but this is not really the rankings it is only where you are showing up in pages - to get the real picture you should use the page rank checker - http://checkpagerank.net/index.php
best regards Paul
Agreed for overall Google website rank but Cronkito was referring to where his posts were ranking for his particular keywords.
It's because your signed into Google plus
It's showing you your contribution but only you can see it. I did the exact thing I couldn't believe it. But just keep writing and attacking those key words and it will move up the pages
Ahh, that's a downer. Heh, yep, signed into G+, no first page post yet :( Tenacity is something that I have that hopefully makes up for my other faults. That's good to know about G+ for sure though, thanks!
No problem I been there. Then I got a real first page. I bet yours is right around the corner

You were right, white3322, first page was right around the corner! As best as I can tell it's true too! Spot three, right behind the manufacturer and a YouTube video!
