Yep - I guess a lot depends on what people are searching for. If they type 
"python eggs" then the Python Eggs page will get the #1 match regardless of 
the domain it's at. Especially if the domain name is "eggbasket" :)

I was sitting in the Lightning Talks session in which Holger was talking about 
rlcompleter2, and Michael Twomey said "what's the URL?" and typed 
"rlcompleter2" into google. The second hit was for:

  http://www.python.org/pypi/rlcompleter2/0.94

which is a URL that *didn't exist* until a couple of days earlier. Google 
likes that URL (and the page layout includes a useful title and heading, 
which helps a lot too).

That's pretty cool, and kudos to Martin for implementing it :)
