Google: Only SEOs Go To Page 35 In Google's Search Results

Nov 3, 2014 - 8:30 am 18 — by

35Google's John Mueller posted another funny on Google+, this one mocking how only SEOs travel as far as page 35 in the Google search results.

He wrote, "I guess I at least found someone who goes to page 35 when searching." Then he quoted an email he got from an SEO solicitation about telling him how he can do better in Google.

The email specifically said that John's "website ranking at 5th position of 35th page." Of course, sending that to a Googler is funny.

Here is the full text of the SEO solicitation John received:

I came across your website ... and have noticed that there are a few things that can be improved on your website to help you rank better in the search engines and ultimately drive more traffic to your webpage. Just for example currently your website ranking at 5th position of 35th page for keyword website which can be easily improved along with other keywords which are on your target list.

I just tried to go to page 35 for the search [35] and Google stopped me at page 33. Must be some sick joke Google is playing on me.
