The name of my company is "wimberley" many people commonly missspell it as "wimberly" when they search for us or our products. We currently have our name misspelled as "wimberly" for the title of many of our web pages (including the index page). I don't know if that was a mistake or a strategic move my our web designer. I guess because of this misspelled title, we come up really well under searched for "wimberly". How can i maintain our search engine status with out having the unprofessional looking misspelled title show up. can i make the title longer and put the misspelled version at the end? Currently, other than the page titles and the meta tags, we don't have the misspelled version of our name anywhere on the site. We probably do have a lot of external links with our name misspelled pointing to our site. Could that be helping us too?
