Default Mispelled name not getting full results - 10-12-2006 , 03:24 AM






When I query google using my name, I only get a limited response
because frequently the information regarding me is under a common
mispelling of my name (the addition of a "c"). How do I get google to
point the searcher towards the frequently mispelled version of my name?

Misspell your name on your page.

I am most interested in pointing others to the mispelled name when they
type in the real name.

So create a page optimised for the two spellings; in your meta description
tag include "You searched for xxx, why not try xxxc?"

You cannot get Google to refer people to what YOU want them to search for -
unless you have a few billion in your back pocket.

If the error was common enough, Google would do it for you - search for
"Googel", and Google says "Did you mean: google"
