Not sure quite what’s happened, or why, but this site has lost it’s position one ranking for “Dan Cryer”, along with it’s previous position 4-10 for “Leeds Web Developer”. The first page that now ranks for “Dan Cryer” is “my latest attempt at a blog” in position 11, with my about page right below it.
Naturally, I posted about this on the Google Webmaster Help forums, and the general guidance I got was that the homepage doesn’t feature my name enough. I’ve now added a short “about me” bit on the homepage, and also changed my author name in WordPress, but I can’t think what else I can do to improve it. I’m also stuck for what to do to correct the problem, I’m assuming I haven’t been penalised, as I’m not doing anything dodgy.
Hopefully it’ll come back, but if anyone has any ideas, I’d very much appreciate them.
