You may know that Fiona has worked very hard to get her online profile into Big G's good books and the effort is beginning to pay off. Many of her articles and recipes now show up on search results with her photo underneath.

Her elderflower cordial recipe is on page 1 and was eighth when I looked a few minutes ago. Let's see if we can help it along a little.

If you would like to participate then just do a search for those three words. 

Then click through to the article on CSH.

Pretend to read it, like for a minute, and the click on any of the related article links below it.

That's it. Do not click on any other link on the search results page. Just close it or something.

Thank you all very much. smooch 

(I can use that emoticon seeing as everybody so far is a lady!)

Let's see if we can build on it over this long weekend.

Bye the way, do not repeat the exercise. Just once is very important.

Thank you Martin, Nadine and Janet.

I think we have not achieved any upward movement but we certainly have helped keep that listing above Waitrose, River Cottage and the Telegraph.

Could we do it again today? Happy to help if possible! We could make it a regular visit if it works.

No, Aly, but thanks anyway.

That topic is now at the height of its season and thousands of people are clicking on all of the links on page 1 so our effort probably was swamped.

We may try again on a less popular subject. It did work nicely a few years ago.
