Another Milestone
I was absolutely blown away several hours ago after receiving an email from a Facebook friend I hadn't heard from for a couple of years. We had worked together about 20 years ago.
They wrote me that they had Googled the two keywords in the title of my blog while researching an article they were writing and saw my picture and a link to my blog on the first page of Google results. Needless to say, I immediately did the same thing and there I was in the third position from the top of the page only after wikipedia and NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness).
I was so excited, I did it about 6 times. Then I ran around the corner to a friend's house and asked them if I could try it on their computer. Same result. I went back home and called a friend in Alaska and asked her to try it. Same result! I just couldn't believe it. My website. First page Google placement!
It was not a direct link. It was in reference to a Google Plus link, but still. It was a link to my blog on the first page of a Google search. Go figure.
It was a link to my latest blog post. I don't know if this is going to be a "One Post Wonder", but I'm basking in it for all it's worth! I'm new to this, so I don't know if I should even be this excited, but my blog is only 3 weeks old and this is only my 4th post.
I figure I'd best just take a deep, long breath, but I'm enjoying it while I can.
