Hi Doug,
Did you get the different result (rank
number 2) using the same search terms? I only ask because when I searched
"dita 1.2", I got the exact same results as Kris.
In terms of adding links, I'd suggest:
- make sure there is a page dedicated
to linking to it as a resource from dita.xml.org - that site has the highest
google rank generally for DITA, and it's giving us the first 2 pages in
the results
- add links to it from the feature review
articles at dita.xml.org (such as the keyref articles) - so the current
higher-ranked pages link to the preferred destination
- add links to it from our TC wiki pages
that mention 1.2 - same reason as above

Hi Kris,
It was ranked number 2 when I Googled it a few moments ago. A few suggestions:
1. Add various pieces of metadata that includes DITA 1.2
2. We could all add links to it on our sites/blogs
3. Tweet about it a bit
4. Click on it on Google listings
Kind regards,

Hi, Robin.
One of our DITA TC members (Su-Laine Yeo
of JustSystems Canada) brought to our attention the fact that the official
DITA page is low on the page when one googles “DITA 1.2” – it comes
after pages on dita.xml.org and an internal DITA TC Wiki page used during
the design of DITA 1.2:
I had an action item from the last TC meeting
to bring this to your attention. I’m cc’ing Don Day and the TC list in
case anyone has specific suggestions for what OASIS could do to move the
official pages up in prominence.
Best regards,
Kris
