Ferrari Mailing List: Re: NFC - Google

[Steve Jenkins (steve]

Do you sign in when you search? Are you using Google subscribed links? Are
you using personalized search?

All these can affect your queries.

If you really want to see how queries (and clicks on those queries) are
finding your site, check out:

http://www.google.com/webmasters/

Then click on Webmaster Tools (including sitemaps).

Sign in, verify your server, then have fun with the data. I spend a good 30
minutes a day looking at this page for my sites.

Hope you guys don't mind,  but I have an off-topic query.  I know there 
are a bunch of Internet-savvy types here,  you may be able to provide 
some insight into this little enigma.

When I Google "surface mount prototypes" from my computer,  my little 
tutorial (You, too, can do 0402) comes up as the #1 hit.  When it's 
tried on other machines it comes up anywhere from #1 (about 30% of the 
time) to #5.  I had expected that since it came up #1 for me it would 
come up #1 everywhere.  Does anyone know how Google comes up with their 
search results? Why the results are in such seemingly random order?

Thanks in advance,

Bill
