With the aim of increasing exposure, have you covered off boring SEO things like having a sitemap.xml and verifying the domain with Webmaster tools?
I couldn't find a sitemap, but it does look like the content has been indexed by Google. On another note, I wonder whether it's worth clarifying the position of the site in relation to the other Clojure Documentations out there. I've often thought it's a shame to see http://clojuredocs.org/ fall out of regular updates. Having an up to date, searchable reference is one of the best things for a language to have. Is this likely to be rolled into clojure-doc in the future? Are they sister sites? If you want help bringing the http://clojuredocs.org/ site up to date I'd be happy to offer some time. I put together some Overtone docs based on a fork of it so I feel like I'm up to speed with the whole thing - you can see my fork here http://overtone-docs.herokuapp.com/ Thanks, On Wednesday, February 27, 2013 6:06:46 PM UTC, Michael Klishin wrote: > > Started in October 2012, http://clojure-doc.org is a pretty extensive > community documentation effort.
