LOL - how things work out so well in the end.

In my datacenter, it is currently moving DOWN.

Blame me for this, as I didn't check the site out thoroughly, but I believe that if this trend continues, it proves that serps can be manipulated. I am double checking with some friends in different datacenters who aren't part of the experiment, just to make sure, but I think we have something.

The homepage for this site is the only page indexed by Google because technically, it's the only page on the site. Every button is a link to a subdomain of d--lercon---tion-.com. As we're moving through, clicking on it, then clicking on any of the buttons, since they aren't internal links, Google is counting it as an instant bounce.

We need to continue to experiment, but switch gears and make it a true Google bounce - in other words, click, then leave, then click on one of the other sites and stay a while.

Let's see how far and how quickly we can make this puppy go DOWN in the serp, since Ford Motor Company made it impossible for this site to move its way up without some serious SEO (which I'm not going to do).

For anyone with any moral reservations, please remember that this is my secondary site and is completely irrelevant to me (not to mention free). Hurting this site in this obscure serp will not be a bad thing at all.

In the meantime, we need to find a new site to experiment on in the other direction. Suggestions?

If this doesn't change anything we need to try it with Google analytics installed. I believe that may make a big difference. Alot more data to go by.
