Here’s a quick and easy way to increase the Google search results for your name: add your name to the author meta tag to each of your web pages. The author tag is generally used by website design companies as a way to designate that they are the webmasters of the site, however, it’s not commonly used.

Keep in mind, adding your name to the author tag is not a magic bullet and will not improve your ranking for any other keywords. But, if you’re a service provider, it is a quick and easy way to improve the rankings for your own name should your prospects Google you before deciding to hire you.
