Remember - if your manually checking results, you definately need to take into account that Google now "personalises" results based on cookies of your past history. Basically need to clear out your cookies or use a proxy or turn off personalisation to get a true accurate reading, otherwise you can THINK you are at the top but are only at the top for YOURSELF - because you have been to your own site so much. Others searching a topic for the first time will see "unpersonalised" results which may be different!

I'm being lazy right now in that I haven't got a link at hand with more info on this, but if anyone wants to know more and can't find it themselves through a google search let me know and i'll post some more links/info!

No probs Corey.
I will be writing something on this myself once I finally get my new website up (I know, I know, it's been in my signature for a month), but until then these more expert opinions will do!

Google's offical blog on the launch:
http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/personalized-search-for-everyone.html

Personalised Search - The "new normal" that deserves extraordinary attention:
http://searchengineland.com/googles-personalized-results-the-new-normal-31290

SEO Guide to Personalised search.
http://www.huomah.com/Search-Engine...-SEO-guide-to-Google-personalized-search.html

SEOMOZ - How personalised search changes SEO and also doesnt.
http://www.seomoz.org/blog/how-personalized-search-changes-seo-and-doesnt

Want to search the web WITHOUT being personliased? Try either of these options:
http://www.iexposure.com/googlecamo (Google Camo firefox plugin - turn off personalisation)
http://yoast.com/tools/seo/disable-personalized-search-plugin/ (Plugin for both firefox and IE, to allow you to search unpersonalised results from the google toolbar in a variety of Google international versions)

Hope this is helpful Corey and of use to others also!
