Sure you’re coming up on Page 1 of Google…for your name!

But unfortunately 99% of people searching don’t know you and if they do, most likely aren’t spelling your name correctly.

Your meta title along with a meta description is what Google and the other search engines use to find and rank you. Using your name takes up valuable keyword real estate. Yes, we all like our name up top and in lights…it just feels and looks nice. But, in the SEO world…sorry to say…your name means diddly-squat.

One of the first things I do when asked to audit a website for possible optimization is look at the title banner…the header that shows up at the top of your website. Depending on the browser you’re using it could be displayed in the search bar or above the search bar. This title shows what is being displayed to Google and the other search engines.

So, instead of using your name…may I suggest you use keywords that best describe you: NY Medical Malpractice Attorney, Las Vegas Plastic Surgeon, Lancaster PA Chocolate Maker, Albuquerque NM Carpet Cleaner. These are the terms that people use to search. They are in essence the natural way of finding what you are after…use specific keywords followed by a city and state. Yep, the use of keywords will enable people to find you when they have no clue what your name is or how to spell it. Sure, they might find your competitor, but then again your competitors clients might find you instead.

So in order to win the placement of first page ranking with Google and the other search engines its essential your keywords are geared to what people are searching.
