Our search engine placement is dropping.

A year ago, if you did a Google search for Birth Notice, you would be sent to the Well House Consultants web site here, but now we're not even on the top page.

Search for Clock Image and you would come, top hit, here, and under Vancouver Skyline you would find us right at the top here. A search for Bristol Airport Arrivals brought traffic here

None of these searches will bring you to Well House Consultants in the top 3 any longer, and some are a long way down. But whilst I'm a little sad that my favourite demos - my party pieces - are no longer effective, I'm glad at the improved data mining efficiency of the search engines. For it means that people are not being brought spuriously to our site, and that they ARE coming here more effectively and when we're right for them. Our traffic is up, our search hits are up.

Here are some hits that will bring you, currently and correctly, to us - all "top 3" rankings too:
MySQL Left Join
Python Tuple
PHP upload image database
Ruby Course UK
Melksham Hotel
Perl Ftp
Tomcat Course

There's still a few surprises around. A search for Wiltshire business of the year brings you here, but I guess that I shouldn't be too surprised - we are indeed finalists, we're proud of our business, and we did have the judges round to impress them with our outfit on Tuesday. And how better for a company that's heavily into IT promotion than to have such effective IT promotion itself!
