I would ''like'' it, but that kind of ruins the whole ''anonymous'' part, doesn't it? :D

Yep. Search for the site. Mention the site - google will detect all of that.

[babs609]

yes...in addition to making the quit train facebook page I also shared this site directly.  

[El Bandito]

Me too - the more the site is shared, liked, referenced, searched the higher it will go in the rankings..

One thing I noticed is that this site is hard to google...keep running into the Q

I am guessing that MQ is working on this - but things that we can do to help:

1. Google relevant phrases, and then connect to the site - you may need to go through several pages to get to this - its new!

2. Share and like on social media - FB, Twitter, anything - we are trying to create 'buzz'

3. Keep posting, tagging and 'exercising'

 

All of these things will help with the ranking with Google. Faster than you might think!

Hi, what do you mean by #3?

That would work - but also Stop smoking, help stop smoking....Google measures what people click when searching - so if they notice that people who want to find 'stop smoking support' are looking for quit train - the quit train starts going up the list...its not all cause and effect - but you get the general idea.

Sorry - I meant exercising the site...

 

Google measures how long people spend on a site - and where they go. So - just doing what we do, going through multiple posts and threads will increase the google rating.

I was able to find it on Google on the 3rd page.  Actually, the second page had a link to the blog page.  On Bing?  Couldn't find it at all.

Second page is good. This will all naturally improve - as traffic hits the site. Helping it along just means that people needing support can get here quicker.
