Every now and then I like to see how highly ATK is listed on Google and Bing for "gaming community".

As per usual, both search engines completely love us and list us as the top search result (Google link (https://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en&sugexp=frgbld&gs_nf=1&cp=12&gs_id=1b&xhr=t&q=gaming+community&pf=p&output=search&sclient=psy-ab&oq=gaming+commu&aq=0&aqi=g4&aql=&gs_l=&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.,cf.osb&fp=37b244dfe41e981b&biw=1280&bih=675), Bing link (http://www.bing.com/search?q=gaming+community&go=&qs=n&form=QBLH&filt=all&pq=gaming+community&sc=2-13&sp=-1&sk=)). Just now though, I found something else :).

Bing is now listing us as a Related Search too!! Click here (http://www.bing.com/search?q=gaming+community&go=&qs=n&form=QBLH&filt=all&pq=gaming+community&sc=2-13&sp=-1&sk=), or see the image below:

How freaking awesome is that? Obviously search engines generate "Related Searches" etc completely algorithmically, so I find this quite amazing. We're pretty popular it seems!

Just checked Google, and they don't show "Related Searches" for "gaming community". If they did, we'd blatantly be there too :D.

I guess this is less surprising, but still cool. We seem to be a bit lower down the list on Google.

Pretty sure the search bar comes up with suggestions from your past searches or sites you have previously visited, but still tis cool.

How many straws were destroyed in the process of ATK being "selected" by Microsoft ;)

Its automatic. I could easily take out the atk community from the searchbar by making My metakey more relevant than yours to Gaming Community. The site has strong meta so is high up

Yeah, obviously I've targeted all of our SEO towards queries similar to this, so that's why it happened!

Actually, if you have any other queries you think I should target (about gaming sites), let me know.
