No meta tags necessary, just something like writing a short blog post about TW (or whatever) with links containing the keyword wanting to rank for, pointing at tiddlywiki.com. You could even just paste the links I provided into the content wherever seems appropriate. These are called backlinks and are the bread and butter of ranking. As an example, TW is ranking #5 on google usa for 'personal wiki', despite only having 3 indexed backlinks (noted in row 197 or the anchor tag tab in the spreadsheet i shared). Of course, this is to rank the main site, not your own tiddlywiki--in order to grow the community. And your intended dev areas sound super! Do you aim for these because > you've identified them as bottlenecks for the development of TW? I don't > know how much you've heard[...] I haven't immersed myself yet in the specifics of what plugins have been developed, planned, or discussed. If there is a centralized place for this, I haven't found it. Today I plan to dig more into the github and explore more tiddlyspaces. I haven't heard anything about this federation, but it sounds cool to hear there is discussion about this somewhere!.
