GoogleIgnoreDataBase?

Finding a good name for our start-up was hard. But we figured Fleck would be good and descriptive name for our technology and we hoped a short domainname which was registered first long ago would do good in Google. Imagine our surprise when we couldn’t find Fleck.com in Google, at all…

No, the whole site wasn’t available in Google no matter how hard we searched. We clicked through all 6.500.000 results looking for it and it just wasn’t there. The whole domain disappeared into the GoogleIgnoreDataBase. This was a huge disappointment!
But then we started this blog and some blogs started linking to us and something changed. Today I decided to give it another try and lo and behold, we are suddenly there, and on the second page! We are now search result numer 18 for ‘Fleck’.

I hope we can even improve on this by getting a few more links to our page. So if you have a blog or homepage I am going to bribe you with this scheme: If you want to make sure you are the very first person to get your hands on our beta product you can now earn that right. Display the FleckBadge on your blog and send me the URL where I can find it and you will get a premium placement in our BetaUserDataBase.

Here is the code you need to correctly display the Badge:

<!– Start Fleck.com Badge of honour –>
<a href=”http://www.fleck.com/” target=”_new”><img src=”http://www.fleck.com/images/fleckbadge.gif” alt=”Fleck.com” border=”0″ height=”30″ width=”88″ /></a>
<!– End Fleck.com Badge of honour –>

I hope you like it! Any other ideas for getting a good rank in Google are welcome…

UPDATE: we are now search result number 10 which means we are on the first page! Only 9 spots to go…

UPDATE 2: we are now search result number 8! It’s getting better every day…
