Well, it was more like a few hours, but it sure didn’t last long…
This morning, I checked out my Google Analytics account and happened to notice that I had a few hits from the keywords “google analytics beta“. So, out of curiosity, I Googled it thinking that I would be somewhere 5+ pages deep in the search results. But, to my surprise, my “New Google Analytics Beta Version” post was the VERY FIRST result! I have the screenshot to prove it!
Check out the first and fourth results. The first is my blog post, and the fourth is the Digg page for my post.
Don’t let me fool you. I’m no search engine guru, I don’t have very much traffic to my website, and my Google page rank is 0/10, so I’m sure none of these factors did it.
Here’s what I think happend:
I’m pretty sure my account was converted on the first day that they started moving everyone to the new version, and I wrote the blog post that night. I think I just beat everyone to it. That would explain why, tonight, just a little over 12 hours later, I’m nowhere to be found on the first 15 pages of results.
Oh well, it was fun while it lasted…
