Lately I’ve been playing with search engine optimization (SEO) a lot, and I’ve found some interesting things about how Google sees amwhalen.com. Using Google’s Webmaster Tools, I can keep track of what keywords my site comes up for. Here are the searches where my site shows up on the first page of Google results:
| Position | Search Terms | Page |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | “arsenal 50mm” | 50mm Photos |
| 3 | cyclopress | CycloPress |
| 3 | “obelisk shaped” building | Artwork and Schematics Circa 1996 |
| 5 | sql frequency | Finding Frequency Counts With SQL |
| 5 | flash _lockroot | Flash, _lockroot, Stage, and hitTest |
