I don't know if anyone has noticed, but Google has started adding
gnomes and some photos in TGH search results. Only on this site so far, but I'm hoping it will go worldwide.
I did a search to check how my Cyclamen page showed up in search results and clicked on my link, checked the page over and clicked 'Back'. Back on the search page, I noticed that I now had the option to 'block all search results from www.thegardenhelper.com'
That mad me nervous that something wrong with the page so I went to Google and learned that it is a new option, in case I reallly hated TGH... I immediately blocked Wikipedia and e-how

Search results to forum pages, on ANY forum or bloggy thing that allows replies will now show how many posts and persons in the results.
On that note, I think I brought up last
spring the my rankings on Google plummeted when they implemented their new algorithm. Many pages literally disappeared from searches. Just in time for
spring! It cost my 50% of my income, at a bad time. I am happy to say that in the last week, I have jumped back up to the top of the page for most of my key words so I'm looking forward to seeing what will happen next
spring.
I timidly asked one time for anyone with a Google+ account to plus 1 pages they like, but I guess that Google+ hasn't really caught on yet (except Google's webmasters LOL) but I can tell you, its safer than Facebook! If anyone would like a G+ account or Gmail, I would be glad to send you an invite!
