In fact we don't even appear on the second page. We're relegated to the second half of the third page. I shall have to update my meta tags and stuff! Dammit!

According to a thing I once read somewhere, one of the best ways to rank highly on the major search engines is to get linked to a lot because the search engines like that sort of thing. And apparently some of the best places to get linked from are blogs and discussion forums cos they're easy for the search engines to trawl. So I've written a post about the JDBB on my blog. It's not very intertesting, though.

I think we should rise to the challenge of becoming the number one search result on google by mentioning (and/or linking to) the JDBB as much as we can - legitimately, of course; we wouldn't want to be accused of spamming - for a couple of weeks until we reach the coveted spot!

From there, we can implement our plans for world domination. Mua ha ha ha ha ha!

Easiest thing to do is update your signature on any forums you frequent to include a link to the JDBB. They usually take HTML in which case you need to type the following (using pointy brackets instead of square ones, which I've put in to stop the board from converting it to a link):

[a href=http:\\jdbb.activeboard.com]The Jammie Dodger Bored Board[/a]

Which should end up looking something like this at the end of your posts:

The Jammie Dodger Bored Board

And do the same in any blogs you happen to post in.

We'll make it back to the top. You'll see!

This is a pointy bracket: >

So is this: <

That'll be because I cocked up the header code this morning when I was mucking about with the meta tag and forgot to put it back in. Sorry. I shall go and fix it now.

And...er... since I've just figured out how to make pointy brackets appear without being interpreted as tags, I can now give Stead the exact code he needs:

<a href=http:\\jdbb.activeboard.com>The Jammie Dodger Bored Board</a>

You should be able to just copy and paste that, dude!
