After Google finished with its little dance in the rankings (a.k.a The Google Dance), Chris Hamilton and I finally rank No.1 again for our phrase break, giving joy to both Chris and I. However, the sweet must come with the sour and in this case it’s true for Chris. Typing “Chris Hamilton” in Google, Australia will display a map of Hamilton in the UK with a landmark or business starting with the name of Chris then followed by his blog. This has taken a big chunk out of his visibility and has now been named “The Man Ranking With The Map” (TMRWTM).

It will be an interesting test on how long Google will display the map. It must be determined by how many searches are made with the word “Chris” and “Hamilton” performed in Google Maps, Australia.

To all people who have a vague understanding of search engine ranking positions (SERPs), number 1 spot is vital. 70-80% people will click the first website they see, giving the number 1 website most traffic for the keyword.

Looks like people who have the word Chris in their name in Hamilton, UK are going to be jumping for joy..but then again, who the hell would search for Chris Hamilton, I don’t know the jumping jelly jiggly monkey.
