MCCKC ranks near top of most-searched list on Google

MCCKC is the second fastest-growing search term in Kansas City, according to Google's annual Zeitgeist list of fastest-rising search terms.

In an article in yesterday's Kansas City Star, MCC was mentioned among other popular terms like "Staley High School" and "kcmo.org" as the top rising searches in the Kansas City area.

"This means Google is definitely one of the major gateways for gaining attention for MCC as a whole," said Mike Ekey, public relations coordinator at MCC-Longview and a close watcher of MCC's cyber footprint. "All of the work we have been doing to increase our page rank and realign our information over the past six months is worth it," Ekey said, referring to search engine optimization efforts led by the MCC web team and the district-wide marketing and public information teams.
