          Sure is, ML is getting tons more SEO because of content, activity and low response times.

            I have yet to find ML on Google. Is Nodebb the problem for SEO or is everything IT just so competitive?

              I often get it as a number one hit, actually.

                  Lack of content, being new, etc. There is SO much out there. When I search for things that ML has covered, we are a top hit almost every time. But we just don't have enough content yet. It's why I work so hard keeping the tags up to date, correcting spellings, making titles make sense, linking to social media, etc.

                    Part of that is that you have search google for ML specifically in the past. That weighs in on results I have found.

                      I know that I see ML topics mid first page on generic searching. But I also specifically use google to search ML for things because the built in search is so bad.

                        That makes sense.

                          I have been fooled by Google Chrome in the past. Chrome displays your Google results based on your tendencies and browser history. I thought my website was ranking on the first page of several searches until I used IE to find out that wasn't true at all.

                            Could you share a google search or two where ML ranks on the first page? I would be interested to see if it ranks that way for me.

                              It's shocking what difference you see between logged in vs private

                                I see ML on the 4th page after searching "mangocon." If I search "mangocon conference" I see it as the 4th result on the first page.

                                  "mangolassi" puts mangolassi.it as the last result on the 8th page of google. I know it's a drink but you would think ML would rank higher.

                                    Once you hit a certain tier of activity, Google tends to index new content faster. Probably ML leveled up in that system recently (along with the other factors mentioned).

                                      Google is so worthless. Instead of MangoCon results, it insists on showing completely incorrect "Mango con..." results. There appears to be no way to make it search on what I actually said versus what it feels I should have said. There is a reason I almost never use Google anymore, the move to make the platform "idiot proof" has left it only "idiot worthy."

                                          I agree that google can be a pain, but there is no way the majority of people are going to stop using it.

                                            Don't shoot me for saying this, but is a name change out of the question? It's hard to compete with an alcoholic drink.
