Alex Ovechkin test or why Microsoft wanted to buy Yahoo

I guess all of us, bloggers, went through Ted Leonsis' quest to find yourself faster online.

That's why today is a big day for me, maybe it happened a while ago, but last time I checked, my blog was on the 5th or maybe 3rd page of Google Search results. Guess what, I've typed "Alex Ovechkin" on Google today and, surprise!, my blog was on the first page!

I went to Yahoo, did the same, and my blog was on the first page of Yahoo search results as well.

I then decided to check Microsoft Live search... I don't exist there. :-) I went over 5o pages of their search results and gave up.

Now you know why Microsoft wanted to buy Yahoo, Microsoft Live search engine sucks. And my blog is a good test for that. :-)


P.S. I was just about to publish my post, but decided to run another test. I went to AOL Search, typed "Alex Ovechkin", my blog was right there, on the first page.
