Re: [dita] Low ranking of OASIS specs in Google search results

[Doug Morrison <dmorrison@dita4all.com>]

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
