Hello All,
Mike asked me to try to make the Google search for Fedora[1], looks like the redhat[2] one, with sub links for the main website. So after a few hours of searching i think i have found the right html code to make this thing work.
The idea is to change the links to torrent, tours and downloads, is that okey for everyone?
By this you mean, the cool sub-links that appear in the Red Hat search result?
That is a *really* interesting question. A bit of marketing, a bit of user experience.
When people search for Fedora, what do they want to do?
What do we *think* they want to do?
Up to this point, our ideas about changing the front page were to give people what we thought they wanted: stuff to download; how to do stuff; how to join Fedora.
Would we want to mirror that in the search results?
Or do we want to push a different agenda/set of ideas?
Are the suggested links (torrent, tours, downloads) actually a different agenda/set of ideas? Or are they a result of Apache log traffic analysis? Or something else?
Anyway, I'd definitely like a chance to i) think about this as a group, and ii) get them right, while iii) not wasting too much time.
This list seems like a good one for it, since many of the folks on f-marketing-l who are interested in online marketing are also here.
