This is an Order: Stop Googling and Visiting Transgender Trend. I said Stop it.Website. S

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

I just slipped whilst holding my phone, and accidentally googled The Forbidden Place. On three different search engines.

What link are you talking about? Is it this one?
do not click on this link to transgendertrend
I've heard you're not supposed to click on it.

Obviously you should also avoid doing generally transgender searches (rather than transgender trend) and scrolling down to find the link you want. And definitely don't stay on the TT page, should you be foolish enough to end up on there, for longer to show that it is a quality link that will rank higher. Or go to other pages on the website for the same reason.

So many links, so much clicking accidentally as one scrolls.

Google also really likes it when you visit more than one page on a website, particularly if you click on internal links and stay on them for a decent amount of time, say a minute.

It does. And I’ll tell you what else impresses Google. When it sees that a high-ranking site like Mumsnet has a lot of links to another site and that lots of people are clicking on them. That’s called passing on link juice.

I just ended up at 4thwavenow by accident.

I haven't visited Transgender Trend or read any of their literature either, honest guv

FFS. All of this talk of kittens put me in mind to Google transgender kittens and guess where I ended up? This madness must stop.

Google also really likes it when you visit more than one page on a website, particularly if you click on internal links and stay on them for a decent amount of time, say a minute. It reduces the 'bounce rate'-people visiting a website then closing almost immediately-and improves its ranking.

Sorry OP

A big girl made me do it.

I Googled the same as misscockerspaniel but with different results. My page was full of fish-wall.

another reason why we shouldn't visit the homepage www.transgendertrend.com/ is that they might be able to attract advertisers if they have too many visitors. We wouldn't like that, now. Would we?

They have peer reviewed articles, FFS! Avoid at all costs.

Tis a well known fact that peer-reviewed science can make your uterus fall out. If you have one, that is. Not all women have uteruses (TM)

Of course we are not going to click on that link, google Transgender trend or anything like that. They use science, FFS. Our fragile female brains cannot cope with such things. ...or so we are told ... by men. But it is the TWAs who are born with penises who cannot cope with science. What has the world turned into? It is all upside down. No, we must not visit www.transgendertrend.com/ ever. They have peer reviewed articles, FFS! Avoid at all costs.

I've just googled trans children advice for parents and TT is now on the first page. It just needs to go higher up on the first page.

Yes, Fermats. I’d donate.

Incidentally, I don't want to harsh everyone's mellow (I'm enjoying this as much as the next GC feminist), I don't think a handful of us googling is going to make much difference.

Searches like "trans children advice for parents" don't even throw up TG trend for me in the first 6 or 7 pages.

If we were serious about this, we'd be better off putting together a crowd funder to pay for TGT to get a really good IT specialist to revamp their webpages for them.

ImNotNigel - I don't know about ipads, but that doesn't work on my windows 10 machine.

I've got firefox set up so that it always opens private windows, and clears all history/cookies/etc. between sessions. But I have to close firefox completely. If I have one window open and open a second one, it knows I'm logged into Mumsnet, so I presume also "knows" about my google history until such time as I close firefox down completely. Then it clears everything (I have to log back into Mumsnet/gmail/newspaper sites etc. each time I do this).

Fermats.... ahh good point. Thank you. I better try the whole thing again just to check it’s properly objective

People I wish you wouldn't put these clicky links in your posts . I just clicked on one accidentally when scrolling down the thread. Tsk.

Just remembered not to search and look at TT and not spend some time browsing the site to make sure it was accidental.

Fermats - what about if you open a private browsing window on the iPad and then open another one ?

If you have a WordPress please make sure not to link from it. This would do things with spiders apparently.

Chatty - it's only a clean test if you clear your browsing history in between. Google puts cookies on your computer/phone to record your browsing history and to some extent "personalises" your search results based on what you've looked for in the past.
