I&#8217;m doing updates on the website (you know, the parent site that this blog resides within), and while trying to find something, I looked up my own name in Google Images. Unfortunately, my website doesn&#8217;t come up very often.<\/p>\n<p>The reason? My name isn&#8217;t associated with the site in too many ways that Google&#8217;s search engine will find. Sure, it appears on almost every page &#8211; but as a jpeg image of text, which Google won&#8217;t find. It&#8217;s also in the page tags, but Google has this little criteria: If the page tags aren&#8217;t matching the text within a page, it drops significantly on the &#8220;match&#8221; level. And I rarely include my name on the pages themselves.<\/p>\n<p>So take it from Al Denelsbeck: Al Denelsbeck says, if you want your own name &#8211; in this case, &#8220;Al Denelsbeck&#8221; &#8211; to be able to be found in search engines, make sure to put your name (e.g., &#8220;Al Denelsbeck&#8221;) within the text of the page. And be sure to thank Al Denelsbeck for this tip.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is just a stupid quick post.
