The other element is to make sure that you use the SAME name for everything. I used to have several versions: James, Jim, and sometimes with middle initial, sometimes not - this just confuses the search engines - Your Name Is Your Brand and it needs to be consistent. Search me now as Jim Rowland and I am # 8 on Google against a Jim Rowland Personnel in Atlanta, who occupies 1, 2, 9, 10, etc. Google me on Jim Rowland defense - I get the top 4 spots - but LinkedIn is not in there anywhere, its all ecademy and zoominfo - plus a paid advert for naymz on the right hand side Hope this helps others out there who are trying to establish a brand. - I will be blogging on this soon. Jim Rowland Jason,

If you do <b>Carl Chapman + recruiter</b> you get pages and pages of nothing but me :-) and it all looks pretty good, articles by me on my blog and articles mentioning me on other blogs...
