Hi, At the moment googling "moose" puts moose.unibe.ch on the third page. I would be nice if we could get a better rank. So, I would kindly ask all those that use Moose to provide a link from your page to the moose website. For other searches we already ok: "moose analysis" -> rank 1 "moose visualization" -> rank 2 If you have suggestions for how to improve the ranking of moose.unibe.ch please share it with us.

Thanks Klaus. I already went over to adwords, but it said that it cannot generate keywords for moose.unibe.ch.

If you can take care of 1-5, I would look after the rest.

Doru, it "suddenly" worked again. Below is google's view on the moose.unibe.ch site, sorted by google's relevance. That page cannot be copied to a word processor doc or HTML authoring tools, so I copied&pasted the textual parts. In my experience the below is too unspecific; can you please copy all the words from the moose homepage's "publications categories" cloud + keywords from moose's features to the page's HTML keywords. I will then redo.

> Any suggestions? Better parser? :)

No , just joking :) They show you the most expensive (best $revenue$ for them) entries. This is always a problem with keywords "software" + "Java Smalltalk C C++ Python Lisp" + development-cycle- verbs since competition is *huge*. BTW can you remove duplicate keyword(s) and remove singluars, keep plurals.

We'll have to wait until their crawler sees the keywords change (2-3 weeks, unless you can check the moose web server's accesslog and see that google's hits). SEO is a long term business ;-) BTW: look at this one, can that page be made link to moose: - http://www.google.com/search?q=famix&gl=US

And here are other promising hits, - http://www.google.com/search?q=moose+mondrian&gl=US - http://www.google.com/search?q=moose+dynamix&gl=US - http://www.google.com/search?q=moose+chronia&gl=US it's not that bad :)

Do you know of other sites related to moose specific feature keywords (like: dynamix, chronia, mondrian, etc) i.e. keywords which have nothing obvious to to with software/dev/languages (the verbs parsing, understanding, etc, are too common but do keep them). Can sites with moose specific feature keywords be made to link to moose (like the famix example).
