    Interesting stuff. I reckon we're doing pretty well for a fortnight on the road. Cheers for the update.

    THE PHILOSOPHY FORUM appeared on page 10 of a Google search results. — Bitter Crank

    For what? I.e., for what search term? That's what matters. After all, we're at the very top of the search results for "thephilosophyforum.com" (with the quotes).

    But yes, it's good to see us in the results: 17 Google results pages of thephilosophyforum.com URLs indexed as of today by my reckoning.

    I presumed it was "philosophy" + "forum" but I can't check because Google is blocked and my vpn is playing up.

    The more content we can put up on Facebook, the more traction we will get as Facebook is a feeder pond for Google to fish in. Just a thought!

    We've moved up to page 8 from page 11 (where we were several days ago) for "the" + "philosophy" + "forum". We should be the first result. We're underneath narutoforums.

    Would it help if we all dedicated an hour to search and visit this site? Seems to me by the amount of English football news on my yahoo page and search results that sites that are most visited from the search engine get higher on the list faster. And no I don't like English football, that's the wife's hobby.

    Looks like it's a Bing thing. The same search here, without quotes, returns TPF in second place behind you know who. Pretty cool.

    (Seems to go up and down on each search, so this may not be immediately replicable. But we're getting there :) ).

    We're 7th, now. 4th if "philosophy forum" is quoted.

    If you type in "thephilosophyforum.com" directly into the url, it'll come straight up #1. The trick is in getting people to do that.

    You're welcome.

    What did you type in to get us at 7th place? In my search results, "philosophy forum" without quotes is 6th, and with quotes is 4th. I don't think it's changed in that space of time. Did you miscount?

    On .co.uk we're 3rd for "philosophy forum" and 4th for philosophy forum.

    On .com we're 5th and 6th.

    Ever so closer.

    It's obvious that our rise is due to the increase in quality that I bring to the table. I would only ask that others put forth the effort that I have.

    I'd also point out that we all realize that the UK web is a rural backwater, but I do believe our success there might be an indication that we will eventually succeed in the meaningful US market. Like most, I consider the UK a beta version of the US.

    I consider the US to be a UK spinoff. You're the Joey to our Friends.

    Make of that what you will.

    The UK doesn't seem to know whether they are leaving or staying. Confused old coots.

    The US might end up with Trump as president.

    Yes, but Break Dancing 2 Electric Bugaloo was far superior to the original. Make of that what you will.

    If all the people in the US who don't like Trump and Clinton were to vote for a third party on the ballot as a protest, we might end up with a Socialist Worker Party president -- wouldn't that be a shocker -- especially for the SWP.

    Funny thing is it comes up first if you write in "the philosophy forum".

    Google.at it comes up 3rd with "philosophy forum".

    Meow!
