Hi all,

Although Google are obviously the GranDaddy of Search Engines, tracking clicks is indeed the perfect feedback.

Increasingly I have steered away from using Google, as I find more and more irrelevant results in the top spots. (admittedly I do still optimise for them, because of their status)

Google, like us all, still need to stay above water, and by providing the "most wanted" at top spot, will inevitably give the percentage of people the results that they ask for, rather than what the algorithyms are providing for them in the way of statistics.

If indeed it works they'll get my clicks, but only time will tell....
