Example of Google QDF Algorithm in Action – Anyone Want a Pizza?
Following my SES recap post yesterday, titled 77 SES London Takeaway Tips & Tricks we are now ranking in Google UK for a number of “London takeaway” search terms!

This shows that Google’s QDF (query deserves freshness) algorithm can definitely achieve good results, as suggested during the conference and noted in my recap post:
“66. Google heavily using QDF (query deserves freshness) algorithm, bear this in mind when targeting keywords and updating content.”
It will be interesting to see if these rankings are maintained or if they slip away during the next couple of weeks (which I expect will be the case). But for now I’m seeing the post ranking in the top 10 for the following terms:
#6 London Takeaway
#10 Takeaway in London
#1 Takeaway Tips
While the traffic is obviously untargeted, read this comment, it’s good to see that Google are valuing SEOptimise blog posts highly even for reasonably competitive and unrelated keywords.
We just need to figure out how to fufill all of these pizza delivery orders now!

[...] For example, if there is an event occurring, that already has a flurry of Twitter activity about a topic that you would like to associate with a site you are marketing, you can tweet a single link to a substantive post on that site your are marketing along with the keywords that you are targeting. If have built a loyal following of people that will be interested in the subject of your tweet and those people retweet, there is a good possibility that your site will increase in the organic SERP rankings, at least temporarily. There is an interesting, real-life case study on the triggering of QDF because of smaller events that can be found at: http://www.seoptimise.com/blog/2009/02/example-of-google-qdf-algorithm-in-action.html.
