  • Random SEO success

    Jun 12 2006

    In November, I put some tools written in JavaScript on here. These are mostly conversion tools, things like pounds to kilograms, kilometers to miles, etc.

    I had the idea of coding and hosting some random JavaScript things on here, but since then I haven't added anything.

    Then I forgot about them.

    Now, I get most of my traffic on these conversion tools. As of recently, if you search millimeters to inches on Yahoo!, my site is #1. Because of this, I've gotten a whack of traffic just on this one page.

    I wonder what it is about that page that Yahoo! considers so special. There aren't even any sites that link to it. It's really some kind of SEO marvel.

    Note: HTML tags and entities will be converted so that they are displayed as you type them. This means if you type in <em>, people will see <em>, and if you type &lt;em&gt;, people will see &lt;em&gt;.
