It’s the little things sometimes. Queries about “Mike King” with terms like “cg consultant”, “artist”, “writer”, and “blog” start listing my site now. It also helps a lot if the names of movies I’ve worked on are included. I’m not the first entry, but at least I’m on the first page of results.

Hey, google used to not list my site at all except for some of the Salad Bowl pages.

Okay, so the query must be super-specific and nobody is going to find me on a random search. But that’s probably a good thing. All this really means is that people looking for me specifically can have an easier time finding my site.

It’s like if google doesn’t know about you, you don’t exist. I don’t know why it matters, but I feel validated somehow.
