The 100+ vectors that Google use for their secret sauce to rank websties also rewards longevity. Andrew’s site has been known as the rosacea blog for much much longer than this site has. BTW I just added a redirect and updated the named link blog to use http://rosacea-support.org/blog – it just redirects to the URL that will scroll through the most recent posts. Thus if people do want to link to rosacea-support.org/blog they can. (I still haven’t quite cracked a good way to have a static front page and a scrolling blog in wordpress).

a google search for “rosacea blog” still lists http://www.rosacea.co.uk/blog/ before your page, although it hasn’t been updated for almost a year.

that’s quite unusual. googles index really loves regular updates.

maybe that’s because there’s no http://rosacea-support.org/blog page people can link to?

Yes that is correct only 1 of the 3 was mentioned as having rosacea. I thought the Vitamin K reference was interesting also because it is a popular ingredient in several treatments that are targetted at rosacea. Thus sufferers might not be aware that an allergy to the main active ingredient that you were using the product for, is a possibility.

A quick search for “rosacea vitamin k” finds several products so it certainly is out there, especially given the thoughts that rosacea is vascular in origin and vitamin K is good for blood vessels.
