That’s a great achievement! But don’t forget you can only say that “we are second in the English Google”. A “Fortran” search in the French google does not show [Fortran-lang.org](http://Fortran-lang.org), not even in the first results pages… Same situation as two months ago: [Promoting Fortran in non-English languages](https://fortran-lang.discourse.group/t/promoting-fortran-in-non-english-languages/678) A question: is it possible to appear at the first position? or will Google always show the Wikipedia page first? In my Google, [Python.org](http://Python.org) is appearing first, and Wikipedia second. Hence it seems possible. But Wikipedia will always be either first result or at the top right of the page in a framework. So [Reviewing all "Fortran" Wikipedia pages & improving Fortran imagery](https://fortran-lang.discourse.group/t/reviewing-all-fortran-wikipedia-pages/785) can also be important for Fortran. Another question: how are the “People also ask” questions chosen? By an algorithm (or a human being)? Have we an idea of the criteria it uses? We should search information about that tool. Interestingly, and happily, in the French Google the questions are much more positive (translated with DeepL): > Other questions asked: > How to write a program in Fortran ? > How to install Fortran? > How to compile and run a Fortran program under Linux? I really don’t know why there is such a difference! --- _[View the full topic](https://fortran-lang.discourse.group/t/fortran-lang-is-now-second-in-google/931)._
