Being a Swede can be a GOOD thing! by Torbjrn Reidarsson



In my work as a webmaster I have to consider the search engine friendliness of the sites I work on. Sometimes I feel lucky being a native swede, since the competition for swedish words is a fraction compared to english. Recently I was updating a site that sells stamps. (The kind that goes ka-dang and makes an imprint on paper. Not the small papers you lick on the backside and put on envelopes.) Since the swedish word is 'stmplar' I do not have to compete with the word 'stamps' and my work is so much easier! Sometimes it is a good thing to be a swede... ;)
