This Blogging Thing

I'm trying to figure out this whole blogging thing. I Googled "David Ehrenstein" and out of sixty-one thousand hits SET was number one-twenty-four. Not bad, but that's page umpteen so nobody's going to find it.

Googled "David Augustus Ehrenstein" and SET was first, not to mention that from number two on the hits had nothing to do with David Ehrenstein. So I am the only person in the world that knows his middle name. And nobody will look for it, so being first fades to insignificance.

I need to go to the woodshed and learn how to get this thing read.

Fred, I believe google results have to do with how many other sites link to SET. If you post your link to the blog multiple times, like spam, on a site that lets you do it, it will rise on the google list. I will do some spamming for you of your site, just in the interest of research, of course. :)

Ah! That's why there are these communities of blogs on the net, what they call "logrolling" in the publishing business, mutual recommendations.

Yup, Jorj, that's him. Best friend for thirty years until he cancelled my subscription. He was a real gentleman in his pre-militant days.
