Gita Bantwal a Bucks County. Pennsylvannia real estate agent wrote a post titled:
Gita's post is Members Only so other than the title I can not tell you what she said, or I'd have to kill you. If you are a member of ActiveRain you can read what Gita discovered.
Gita Bantal did an experiment. I carried on that experiment.
I believe I can tell you what I commented on Gita's post: here's the link if you are a member - Searching for "ActiveRain agents Alabama" the gist:
- No one cares about ActiveRain except ActiveRain members. Well, the ActiveRain haters care but that's another post altogether. The words ActiveRain has never been branded for consumers. No one would search for ActiveRain Agent Alabama except an ActiveRain member....
- What you see and what I see Googling for a term may be different. What a consumer sees is different.
- If you are signed into Google it is different search than if you are not signed in to Google.
I can NOT tell you what Gita saw on Google in her search. She says in her post if you are a member. It is not the same thing I see.

In fact the first time I searched "activerain agent Alabama" Google gave me slightly different results. It says that result in the comment. Nick was not so high in the rank. Cal was #2, it looks as if it is all about Charita in Birmingham if I am signed into Google. It shows me her face... we are buds on Google+
