Most people will Google their name to see what comes up or to see how many others share the same name. Because Google Juice is critical to my business and to gaining visibility for my listings, I’ve worked very hard on my SEO to make sure Google lists my various sites when certain keywords are searched.
I have StatCounter installed on some of my sites to allow me to learn which pages people visit, which keywords they used when finding my site, etc. This allows me to fine-tune my sites to improve the traffic to them. Quite frequently, I see that people are simply searching my name. I assume it’s people who are “checking me out” to see if they want to hire me or just to see what I’m up to - like competitors.
Generally, a Google search of “elaine reese” will bring up a several pages of articles that truly are “me”. Anything to do with real estate is “me”. There’s also a Dr of Psychology in New Zealand - that’s not me. Apparently a namesake also wrote a Chicken Soup book. That’s not me either. There are some other references to my name that I just want to set the record straight, that these references are NOT me (I removed the links):

Of course, I also get lots of Google Alerts for Reese’s candy. Occasionally, there is something for Reese Witherspoon, but not very often.
