That's not me either

Following on from my last post about searching for my name on Google and having my site relegated to third place, slipping behind someone talking about me and Australian Reverend Me, I've had a look and found the situation is even more dire if you search for the alternative version of my name, Steve Newey. When I last looked, the first real me is this site, and it's at the bottom of the first page of results!

This situation obviously needs addressing, and maybe, just maybe, mentioning myself, Steve Newey a couple of times here will be enough to fix it. If not, then I appeal to you, link to me as Steve Newey too! I'll link back to you and mention every version of your name I can.

Allow me to demonstrate. My good friend Dick Overton has a website. Some people know him as Richard Overton. Yet others know him as Rich Overton.

See, I could do that for you too! You can also link to me as Ste Newey if you like, though I'm currently second in that results page, so I'm not overly concerned. The real effort must be put into making me Google's number one Steve Newey!

And on a side note, talking of Google searches, I'm currently the second site listed if you look for Star Wrek Pirkinning, after the official website! The film is actually called Star Wreck: In The Pirkinning. It becomes available for legal download upon it's release tomorrow. I'll talk about it more when I've seen it so that my second Google place is actually deserved.
