Are You Googleable? Increase Your Findability

A friend mentioned she searched her name in Google- she'd done it before, but another woman had the exact same name, even middle name as her, so she was completely un-Google-able.

But now she said Google had figure out she existed as a separate person- she's finally Googleable.

I don't care if it's narcissistic, I've googled myself more times than I count. And I'm highly Googleable.

We were going to bet, but she doesn't bet, about whether this term was already in Google. I said it was. She said it wasn't.

We also differed on the spelling- I preferred Googlable, she preferred it with the extra E. Now that I've seen it written, I prefer Googleable. With the E. And there are almost three times as many pages in Google for Googleable with the extra E.

Anyhow, if you search for Brian Carter, I have about half the top 20 search results... partly because I do SEM for a living so I know what to do to be findable (my CEO said I should talk about findability if I wanted to be cool. I said I'm already cool), and partly because I've done a bunch of different things online- most of what I do in life is online- music, comedy, adwords, stupid youtube videos, etc.

So I thought I'd write a blog for regular people about how to be more googleable.
