this trips me up fairly often as well. The pattern of serving<br>multiple

before they return results for<br><a href="https://docs.python.org/3.5/" target="_blank">https://docs.python.org/3.5/</a> ? I

Perhaps SEO specialists know what<br>trick is at play there?<br></div></div>

I will add it to my list of questions. Normally you'd do it with
redirects to the latest, but that doesn't help if you're trying to keep
archived documentation. <br>

Hi all -
We've contracted a professional SEO firm to help improve search
placement for all OSF projects. I'd like to crowd source this on each
of the project mailing lists, so the community is able to be
involved. Could you all help out in providing the below:
“Wish List” of keywords: 8-12 big terms you think fit your domain (if
you only have 4-5 to share, fewer is okay)
- open infrastructure
- ?
At least 3 competitors
- AWS
- ?
Any other input on positioning, offerings, etc. that you think will
help best filter for relevance
- ?
</pre></blockquote></blockquote><pre>honestly the only think i would like to see is fixing the search result so that the 'latest' version of all our doc
are at the top of the list instead of pike.
the docs for our older release always come up first and its hard fo fine the direct link to the 'latest' version which
tracks master.
granted i have it save in my broswer history but when users are looking for docs on things it would be nice if they got
the more recent docs.
