Year 2008 Ending Serp results for Hummerbie

Hummerbie — Fri, 26 Dec 2008 12:53:19 +0000

I august I did my first check on the term “Hummerbie” in Google, you can read the results on Hummerbie on Google Serps.

Today I wanted to see how the results evolved to the Year 2008 ending… so here are the results.

So what has happend in the last months?

You can clearly see that updating and working on my sites and Blog payed off.
In August there where a fewer real Hummerbie domains, as there are now.
Also changing the hummerbie.blogspot .com to www.hummerbie.net workt as well af course with some blogging to support that.

Funny thing is that the social networking sites also have some highter rankings.
The blog hummerbie.wordpress.com has drop down to 21, and thus not shown on these results pages.

If you look at the results of www.google.nl, you can clearly see that those are geotargetted since there are different results in favour of Ducht websites.

Conclusion here can only be that a good domain name works fine and that regular updates for your website or blog also turns out to have a large influence on the Serach Engine results pages of Google.
But I am now going to work on my links and information on the Google pages…because that page comes in Third? and there is practicly now information on it!

Is Google favouring its own hosted pages? That would main that I can really gain some more links for by sites by pointing to them from my Googlepage!
So that will be a great thing to test in 2009

Hummerbie — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 10:35:37 +0000

Yesterday I bought the domain Hummerbie.net to redirect the site hummerbie.blogspot.com to.

So the Blog is in transition now and should work within the next few days.
URLs on the blogspot are already pointing to Hummerbie.net, like the one where I Bought the domain name via Google

Let see how this works out in the next couple of weeks for the SERPS in Google…

I will be writing about the SEO factors and improvements on http://www.hummerbie.net , so if you want to now how to do that kind of transition, read more there.

Hummerbie on Google Serps

Hummerbie — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 13:41:05 +0000

I am looking at some rankings that are on Google when I run a query on Hummerbie

Here are my findings:

Big thing here is that most of the results are from social networks and microblogs:

Just two websites and the rest form Forums where I have a profile…
Besides that Google gives more power to active postings and speedy info, but my Hummerbie Blog was on position 48.

Seems I have to do some social bookmarking work to do

The SEO 4 Series

Hummerbie — Sat, 31 Mar 2007 09:20:18 +0000

I have decided to write a serie of WordPress Blogs about Search Engine Optimization for my three favorite Content Management Systems.

http://seo4joomla.wordpress.com

http://seo4drupal.wordpress.com

http://seo4wordpress.wordpress.com

The First one has allready a lot of information on how to make Joomla Search Engine ready.

The Drupal I am writing as I am learning on how to get my own Drupal webiste ready for optimal results

The last one I am already working on my own blog in Dutch called http://wordpress.itmentor.nl so that information is going to be translated into English on the WordPress.com based blog.

Why these series? Because I like to help people, and build some authority on Search Engine Optimization as well.

Want to learn how to Blog?

Hummerbie — Tue, 13 Mar 2007 12:54:29 +0000

I wanted to, but I didn’t want to read a lot of Books..

But I learned some key lessons from a Tutorial website where you just sit behind your Online connected computer and watch some fine Video like informational instructions..

Well.. kind of like wachting Television, you know Discovery, National Geographic, BBC , Paris Hilton on Viral Marketing…. things like that.

Maybe that is why its called Tubetorial ?
