I’ve always been hesitant to publish personal information on the interwebs for obvious reasons, but I came up with an idea in the shower one day that I thought was too amusing to pass up. Recruiters and companies often ask me for my SEO resume, and I thought it might be funny to say to them “just type my name into Google”.
So, for that exact reason, I have posted my SEO resume online for all to see. Why am I not concerned about having it online? Well, for one, I share the name with a christian rock singer who is popular in those circles, so I liked the challenge, and I thought if my job is to make sites #1 in search engines for keywords, why not prove it with my own name? For two, it can get me work (re: monetizing your site).
So, new experiment… can I rank for my own branded term? We’ll see…
