As well as this blog I look after the Mensan.eu blog. I am the main blogger but we have a few other bloggers signed up, so I remain hopeful that as the site gets better known, a few more will sign up.

I’ve also been promoting, marketing the site if you like and have set myself a challenge. To see how high I can take the site for these three phrases. No tricks- just making sure relevant content is added every day or two.

• Mensan Blog – 1st out of 930 results (on Google)
• Mensa Blog – 3rd out of 1.4 million results
• Mensa – No Idea out of 9.8 Million results!

I managed the 1st place exactly 31 days after the domain was registered. No black hat methods either! All legitimate. PR BTW is 0. Webserver logs indicate 190 MB of traffic so far but thats probably me! (True story- On another site I’m working on, I mucked up a sql query- each run output between 30 and 70 megabytes. Do’h! 1.85 Gb in all.

I’ve extended the Mensan.eu site this week, not just with more blog entries but with a Google map of events and bloggers, bios of bloggers and a live feed from Google News on Mensa stories.
