More like a Google-firecracker than a Google-bomb.

So it turns out that currently, 38.6% of all of my Google-searcher traffic is looking for the phrase “firefox settings”. Also, all of that traffic seems to be going directly to my short article about, wouldn’t you know it, Remote Firefox Settings. How could this be?

Well as it turns out, that dodgy little article is number one in Google for a search of "firefox settings".

Beats me as to why such a tiny, unimportant and uninformed couple of paragraphs would be so highly ranked by the Googleplex, but in case the inevitable occurs and I am knocked from the number one position, here is the proof:

According to Google, I am number one out of “about 1,390,000″. All I can say is, bizarre.

Update: It appears the recent downtime I had on this server has booted me from number one. Se la vis!

Update 2: It seems I am back to number one. Just goes to show how much a bit of downtime hurts you in Google ranking.
