Well it looks like MSN.com FINALLY got around to indexing this site. It took them a week longer than Google.

And they wonder why people think their links aren't as relevant....

I'll have to see how my user name does in an MSN search later today.

Right now Google is looking at this post.

SEO is more black magic than science. It's a war of escalation. However the key to a high ranking on Google now a days is new content. Chance are it's coming in on the RSS feeds.

Still if there are good links to VC Fodder the two should have a multiplier effect and the traffic here should significantly raise the ranking of the main site.

I've noticed that, too.

Frankly, Bill and I are humbled by the amount of traffic VC Fodder receives, and our high rankings on major search engines.

Just a note to say that I've seen Google indexing the site while checking "Who's On". I went and did a Google search for BRodda (Its more common than you think, it's a Tolkien character too).

My user profile on VCFodder Forums was ranked number 9 in the natural search results. Not bad, a real nice ranting for a site less than a week old. Means the forums have some really great SEO charateristics.

Just some kudos
