Those who have read all the posts on this blog know that I registered this domain after Syed Balkhi challenged me in twitter to rank #1 in Google for his name.
I took up the challenge because it would seem that someone interested in the ranking of his name, would register the .com of his name if it was available. The domain was available so I registered it late at night on April 23rd.
It wasn't till early morning on the 24th that I put up any content. Now early morning on the 29th, the site is indexed and showing the Google SERPs.
It has actually been showing in the SERPs for a couple days, but just some of the pages, not the home page. This morning the home page is in spot #2 behind balkhis.com, Syed's blog.
Balkhis.com was registered in January 2008, and I'm sure has plenty of links to it. I think it is pretty amazing to get the #2 spot in under a week with a brand new domain and not very many links to it.
