When I search for my webmasterworld alias in Yahoo, my personal site comes up #1. That's not so interesting as the Title they show in the listing - it's my alias, not my real name. This is interesting because NOWHERE on my personal site do I actually use my WebmasterWorld alias -- the title being shown in the SERPs is taken 100% from the inbound anchor text, not from anything actually appearing on the site.
Actually my site is so shoddily thrown together I left the <title> of my home page as "Untitled"
Even when I search for my real name (in quotes), the title showing in the serps is "httpwebwitch".
Does this seem right to you? That someone else's links can determine the title of my SERP listing?
I'm going to put a <title> on my page and see if the "problem" goes away. But not right away :)
everyone who reads this: link to me with "regex #*$!" as the anchor. See what it takes to tip the scale and make Yahoo call me a #*$! in the SERPs.
LOL
Even more fun than Googlebombing.
of course you can link to me if you want but please don't take this post seriously, I think there's a rule against link requests in the TOS
the #*$! above (bleeped) rhymes with limp and begins with P
My job here is done
