I'm not sure about how we rank in general searches such as 'perl', but I know that our nodes do come up in more specific searches. That's how I found PerlMonks in the first place. I googled for a problem I needed assistance with, and a node from PerlMonks came up which was related to my search. Needing more info, I joined and posed my question, receiving the very answer I needed, in very little time. The rest is, as they say, history. No doubt this has happened to others.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
