Google is crazy!
You’ll notice that my first name or last name aren’t mentioned anywhere on my site… My daughter’s and girlfriend’s first names are present in a few pages.
If you search on Google with my full name without quotes, this site comes up third (the 1st and 2nd results being my profile on my employer’s website).
If you search for my daughter’s full name, again without quotes, this site comes up 1st! Which I find pretty cool if you take into account the fact that our last name is NEVER present on this site.
If you search for my girlfriend’s first name with my last name, still without quotes, this site comes up 3rd because of a post concerning her conventum (high-school reunion).
I understand how this all works but at the same time, I’m amazed by the speed and efficiency of their whole system.

Well, as you must know (
), google gives a strong value to the text contained in the link to a site. If people like me are nice enough (coughs!), you’re quickly discovered because your name is on the links section of my site 
Same technique as the classic “Miserable failure” leading to George W. Bush !
Have fun !
