As you'll see from my last post on Thursday, I added some links to three new sites that we've recently finished building. Sheds and Hotel Soap were finished a little while ago and we've had an ongoing campaign to drive visitors to them (Adwords/PPC in the case of Sheds, email marketing in the case of Hotel Soap).
The other one, the animal feeds site, only went live on Thursday morning. About an hour before my blog entry.
It was a brand new website with no search engine positioning at all. Within 22 hours Google had visited, indexed it and it now sits at the top of the rankings for FeedsDirect and position four for Feeds Direct. Not bad eh?
What will be interesting now though is what happens next. We often see new sites hit the search engines in a blaze of glory followed by a period where they seem to disappear or drop quite dramatically before slowly and steadily moving up to a more stable position.
The elves are back...
