Not a good day for Bill

- Dreamed unhappy, angry dreams, in spite of the fact that one featured a dear friend and the other an unidentified "hot chick"

- Woke up with the broken sinus-y feeling announcing that Jami shared his cold with me

- Left the house with my morning cappuchino still sitting on the shelf by the front door.  I consoled myself with one from the Main Street Coffee House, but their's aren't even close to as good as mine.  Like the cheap cookware set and copy of the home game, it ain't the "brand new car!!!"

- I'm in the office instead of working from home.

On the bright side:

- My work path is clear for at least the next few hours

- The office is quietly busy, which is nice

- The office is comfortable, though that will change as the sun gets higher, but...

- I have an air conditioner in my office now.  Loud, but effective.

Bettering your Google ranking

Raising your Google position:

As I do this for a living, I thought I'd offer a simple list for anyone who could derive some benefit from the advice.

Disclaimer: the advice I offer here is based upon a great deal of research and personal and professional experience, but lest you misunderstand my intentions, I'm not inviting debate. There are a great many opinions about how Google works since no one outside the company actually knows, and thus you may feel inclined to disagree with my recommendations. Be my guest.  You have a blog of your own, I'm sure.

Late edit: there are some clarifications inline.

Let us begin. 

For the record, merely having many visitors to your website isn't going to help your rankings. Google can't read your visitor count - nor would you want them to.

To increase your Google ranking, your site needs two things: relevance and importance. In this article I will detail how to achieve both in the eyes of Google.
