		there on April 17, 2012 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Pocket Released (Formerly Read It Later) It doesn't seem to take long for products-named-after-common-words to rank high on Google (though search in the Play store has always been horrible). Case in point: my Pushover app/service was released about a month ago and is on the first page of Google results for "pushover", despite there being a game and movie of the same name.

I pretty sure that is Search Plus Your World customizing the results for you.

pushover.net is number 10 when I search in an incognito window.

I didn't say it was number 1, I said it was on the first page.
