Universal Search Real Estate

The Universal Search roll out on Google is taking its toll on one of my rankings. On Google.nl ranking for a keyword like San Francisco can bring you quite some traffic when the time is there for people to do their summer vacation research.

I used to rank pretty well, #3/4 for the keyword San Francisco, but now days it’s getting harder and harder to squeeze a good ranking out of your site. Reason: Google Universal Search onramp.

My site fell all the way down to the second half of the page, below the fold. It’s still #5, and #2 real Dutch site in the results set, but still… What are all those pictures doing there?

I better get my site higher up there before January or February, when the information phase for the summer holiday starts…
