Thanks to the very cool blogger over at Metrosophical I have just discovered a slightly scary fact.
I am not sure how Google decides to rank websites (I understand they recently changed the algorithm used) but:
if you type in English Major I come up third. AND - if you type in "English Major" with the quotation marks (an exact phrase search) I come up first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (so if you hit the "I'm feeling lucky" button, you get me).
Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
