Millions of people use this search engine each day. Thus, I'm not really seeing this as a big movement. But if you constantly search the term "Redwall Warlords" on google, it will pop up easier. I realize that we are a small force trying to gain ground here, but if we manage to bump up this on google, there is a (slightly) higher chance bored people will come and play the game. Think of it this way. A youtuber asked for people to search a certain term. That term became the first thing that popped up if the word is was typed. Just search the term a little more often than you do. We could churn up some big numbers (if we're somehow lucky).

Google is very good at adjusting for search manipulation

But, as it has in the past, it will not adjust unless something is being directly harmed. All I think we can accomplish is get the term redwall warlords to pop up when the term redwall is typed.

This suggests that search manipulation is frowned upon no matter the reason (of course it is) and it also suggests, rather logically, that the quickest way to get redwall warlords into the first page would be for people to search "redwall", not click any of the links, then search "redwall warlords" and click the link. Google is clever!

That would explain why the first link has been changed when the term "kevjumba is" is typed in.

The Lady Shael

We're #1 for "redwall warlords" and on the first page for "redwall game", I'm pretty satisfied with that. :) We're also on the external links section for the main Redwall Wikipedia article, which actually counts for a lot (I think a couple of our permanent members got here that way).

SEO is a powerful tool though, one that we could probably be taking more advantage of if we have time (which we often don't =|).

RWLers, your wish is my command...as long as it complies with the rules.

I think it might be possible, but is it really worth it?

Using SEO to rank RWL higher on the search results?

If you've got a ton of time and know what you're doing, then sure.

It's wasting time you would otherwise spend in the Spa. Not that costly.
