MAPQUEST DRIVING DIRECTIONS


 We recently researched on Duckduckgo and Google, what returns a person gets when they type in "MapQuest Driving Directions".

Of course one gets the official MapQuest website at the top of the page.

This is immediately followed by websites who appear to not be an official MapQuest website. However these websites do offer driving directions similar to that of MapQuest.

We actually think that these websites may be utilizing the same driving directions "search engine" that MapQuest utilizes.

For many years our website that you are currently on "MapquestOriginal.blogspot.com" was the third ranked listing when you typed in "MapQuest classic original" in most search engines which were Google, Yahoo, Bing, or DuckDuckGo.

We diligently tried to remain in the third position of returns, but the search engines were uncooperative in divulging their information on how they ranked a website in page rank of returns, and we eventually dropped off the face of the earth when a person typed in MapQuest Original , MapQuest Classic, or a combination or MapQuest Classic Original.

We went from the first page of results to virtual obscurity. We think this may have occurred for political affiliation and social justice reasons, such as the banning of many famous people from twitter.

We will never know!!!


Every professional SEO company, which stands for "Search Engine Optimization", claimed in order to be a top listed, in the first page rank of any subject that you had to have the following criteria:

1) Backlinks from other reputable websites.

2) Lots of pertinent information on your website.

3) Keywords

4) A dotcom web address.

5) Unique, interesting info, design, pictures or videos.

Our website MapQuestOriginal.blogspot.com never had ANY backlinks from other websites, yet we maintained the third rank on the first page of returns. So all of the professional SEO websites were wrong in the fact that a website HAD to have backlinks for good SEO.

We also never obtained the proper dotcom address the SEO companies said was required. Our address should have been "MapquestOriginal.com" instead we used "MapquestOriginal.blogspot.com" because it was free through Blogger, which is also Blogspot.com

That's all for today , please come back soon!
