Week three -- almost four
Things at work have been a bit challenging. It's always a little stressful getting back into the groove after a re-org. That's my excuse anyway. I've been, for the most part, sticking to the schedule, but I'm still in chapter one. Progress has been slow.
On the plus side, I do have a better idea what I don't know. While it's more than I'd hoped, it's manageable.
I'm not sure how Google ranking works anymore -- though at one time I thought I had some clue. It's hard to determine why some sites in which I'm barely, or not active at all, come to the top of the search results, when other sites in which I am quite active fall far lower down the list. For instance, I've joined elgg.org and photo.net, just to check out the services. I haven't actually done anything on those sites. Yet for some reason a search for Robert Rebholz brings those up before my LinkedIn profile. In fact, there's another Robert Rebholz on LinkedIn (with fewer connections and fewer recommendations) that pops up before my LinkedIn profile -- what's up with that.
And how RobertRebholz.com -- a site I use to store graphics for all my other blogs -- is discovered at all is surprising. I suppose it could be that linking photos to that site from the several blogs I contribute to, has increased it's rank. If so, that's clearly broken from my personal perspective.
