I am working on launching a new (community like – /pd no details now, please ;-)) site. The main user is called Corsin. The domain is around 20 days old.
On a Google search for "Corsin", this page is on position 2, while much older sites (like ethz.ch) and with more backlinks are behind. Now I am speculating, that Google trusts wikis more than "old-style" websites.
Could this be possible? Any information on that?

In my experience it happens often that fresh sites jump instantly to high rankings, and then later on get somewhat buried...

So, what's http://barcamp.ch ?
By the way there's gonna be a barcamp in Berlin the end of August!

Google is easily fooled if you have a page with little / almost on content. Corsin has a big weight in that page. It's in the title, URL, h 1, first phrase, many links in that page.
