Back at it again

okay, it’s a little past three in the morning and I just woke up to start a new session of work.  I went to bed with the intention of sleeping the night through, but as it turns out I was a little too excited about things to ever really fall into a restful sleep, so here I am.  Although it may not be the healthiest pattern, it’s a really good sign for my quest and I’m so excited about my work that I can’t sleep.  Besides, the middle of the night is one of my favorite times to work as I find it a very productive space, as long as I’m not tired.  So I’m going to return to my work of the day, which was adding links to play with your mind and searching out potential websites to network with or link with.  I already got the few links out there today, and send out a number of e-mails promoting my site so hopefully those efforts will bear fruit.  my new search engines standing report or play with your mind is due out in a couple days so I’m excited to see how much upward progress there has been as a result of my new site design and the added love it’s been getting recently.  Much of my SEO work for the site was undone by the neglect of the past year so it’s going to take some time and effort to get back up there.

cracked the top 10!

The Keyboard Playground is now coming in at #10 on the google search for ‘typing games’ so I have reached my preliminary goal.  Now each step up the ladder will mean a noticeable increased in traffic.  In a week or so I’ll post some info my my google analytics account to see how this ascension has impacted the site traffic.

seo progress

Well I have definitely made a considerable amount of progress in my seo (search engine optimization) for the keyboard playground in the past few weeks and I expect that trend to persist as I continue to add new content and as my efforts to get inbound links bear fruit and get acknowleged by the search engines.  I am now on the front page for ‘free typing games’ and ‘online typing games’ and ‘keyboard games’ and ‘play typing games’ in pretty much every major search engine.  The big prize of course is just plain ol ‘typing games’ and I currently sit 12/7/25 in google/msn/yahoo which represnts upward movement in all 3.  You  can see a summary of my progress compiled by this fun tool called Exactfactor.
