Why I search for Rick Dixon on Google:
This webpage comes from me working on my website's SERP. SERP stands for Search Engine Results Page, one's Google ranking. I type Rick Dixon into Googleand look to see the earliest my website shows up on the results page. I dance pretty high up on the list, toggling with Rick Dixon Auctions and a Rick Dixon Real Estate guy also living in Maryland. Your Google results might be different due to Google searching for results in your proximity. If you live in TN for example, and Google me, a Rick Dixon from TN ranks high up on the list.
In some ways none of this matters. In the web development world Search Engine Optimization is a fun game, or better said, a serious business challenge. That is why I Google myself. I do so to learn more about how to have my little, personal website crawl its way to the top of the Google rankings.
Googling Oneself Using "Quotations" Around Your Name
Have you ever Googled yourself? It's interesting. You may believe you are a nobody but you just might be amazed how many of you are not only out there in the world but have some type of web presence. I am no exception to such a search. Here is a snapshot of what I found from my Google search of Rick Dixon. Oh and before we go there I just want to share that if you place quotation marks around your name as in "rick dixon" Google will search for the string of rick dixon, not rick and dixon. Otherwise you quickly find results that have a rick in them and also a dixon in them, but not necessarily rick dixon. Onward:
