A user on IRC noticed that Clojars SEO for Bing and DuckDuckGo (at least) is kinda bad. I wonder what's up with that or how to fix that; none of the first page links point to actual http://Clojars.org
Interesting. I have no idea how any of that works, but if someone wants to figure it out, I'll help where I can
@U8SFC8HLP Is that when you type in just clojars
(because you can't remember whether it is .com or .org maybe)?
On Bing, the GH repo for Clojars is in the top few results and that does at least have a link to the actual http://clojars.org site. But a lot of search engine "rank" comes from authoritative inbound linking so updating http://clojure.org so every mention of Clojars was a link to http://clojars.org would help.
However, search engines also down-rank sites that a) don't change much and b) don't have "interesting" text on them. Moving the tutorial from a GH wiki into pages on http://clojars.org itself would probably help (and then replacing each wiki page with a stub linking to the appropriate page on http://clojars.org, so folks' links are not broken).
