While we work to stay abreast of the latest U.S. immigration laws and procedures, behind the scenes we are also busy tracking our web traffic, monitoring the MurthyForum, preparing transcripts of weekly MurthyChat sessions, and making constant improvements to MurthyDotCom - some obvious and others not. We were pleased to learn this week that our efforts have been acknowledged in an article by Gord Hotchkiss, President of Enquiro, a company specializing in Internet search strategies, headquartered in British Columbia, Canada.

Mr. Hotchkiss's August 4, 2005 article, entitled Murthy vs. the Goliaths : The Power of Search at Work was also carried by MediaPost Publications, The Inside Line on Search Marketing. In the article, Mr. Hotchkiss states that his research to find the category leader among law firms revealed MurthyDotCom receives more visits than any other website in the legal field. The article says that Hotchkiss expected to find one of the four largest law firms, employing thousands of lawyers in multiple locations worldwide at the top of his query, but found instead that our traffic exceeds ten times the market share of those four firms combined. That is sobering and surprises even us!

While we at MurthyDotCom and The Law Office of Sheela Murthy are honored by Mr. Hotchkiss's article and humbled by the fact that we may currently be the most visited legal website on the Internet, we know that it would be foolhardy to rest on our laurels. The competition is healthy. We are as likely to be unseated by a bright, young lawyer with a new practice as by one of those large, well-established law firms mentioned by Mr. Hotchkiss. But we do not intend to let that happen easily!
