homefriday is working with Google daily to get you listed on the world's biggest search engine.

Google is all about relevance, so it gets excited when things are changed or updated and it wants to know about every new member. We let Google know what's happened each day with the result that our premium members end up with their own Google listing and can be found according to their profile title - try keying yours into Google now. Your title comes up in the search results with a bit of info about you - usually in the primo position of the first page of natural search - and linking directly to your full profile.

Not everyone appears on Google straight away. The "bot" has a lot of ground to cover, so visits periodically and randomly, but much more frequently when it receives regular updates.

To help out, we designed the site so that it can find you simply and easily (Google hates snags and barriers).This is great news and is another benefit of the full profiles. Keep it in mind when you write your title - you want something that isn't too general (ie Babysitter), but something that you think people would naturally type into Google (ie Experienced nanny in Melbourne bayside).

Oh...and keep on posting to the forums on homefriday. Not only is it informative and fun, Google is checking out your pearls of wisdom there too!!
