[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 335907, member: 9240"] I've got this to say about Bluehost, which is where I host my site. My name has been tossed around the interknot since I was first able to connect at low dial-up speeds - from Smoking Pipe forums (I used to carve) to sites for transcribing guitar charts to various guitar forums to photography sites, you name it. So when I'd Google my name I'd get a plethora of stuff from all over the place. I do not do business under my own name, and only include my name as a "Photography by ..." tack on to the name of the website. So, I just plugged my name into Bing and my website was 3rd on the list, behind my LinkedIn profile and a blog post about me on the MeFOTO website. Google, unfortunately, doesn't find me there until page 3, but that may be because I've abandoned that search engine due to their collecting of, well, just about every ounce of information they can find on me (though my 500px page is #1, which links to the site, so it's not all bad). Yahoo search seems to match Bing, as does DuckDuckGo.com, which supposedly provides pure, unfiltered results. Bluehost states that they work hard to boost SEO scores, and it seems that they're people of their words. The most interesting things I found was that I have a page on IMDB. Damn - I'm finally getting recognized for my star status!! LOL [/QUOTE]
