Proof That Google Loves Social Networking

I’ve got a lot of content out there under my name on the Internet, and most of it comes right to the top of Google when you search for Lisa Dozois . Interestingly, however, my 1 week old blog, LisaDozois.com, comes up #2 even though everything else with my name has been out there for a much longer time.

Big deal, right? How hard can it be to rank #1 for your own name? Well, I’m not the only Lisa Dozois  (oddly enough), and the “other one” used to rank higher than me until I started working on that problem. At least I’m glad she’s not a porn star. Unfortunately, someone who uses the same screen name I use on a lot of forums is :( That’s one of the reasons I started the Lisa Dozois brand building campaign.

Anyway, Google is starting to treat me well. In fact, my current Google search results look like this:

  1. Lisa Dozois – LinkedIn
  2. LisaDozois.com
  3. Lisa Dozois – EzineArticles.com Expert Author Bio
  4. Lisa Dozois (lisadozois) on Twitter

Proof that Google loves social networking and you should be using it if you want to build out your brand.
