I'm literally the only person in the world with my exact name/spelling (... or was until a few months ago).
I'm really not exaggerating. My first name is so unique that I was literally the only person who ever came up in a Google search. Professionally, a blessing, because it required absolutely no effort to promote whatever I wanted to about my image/reputation. Socially, a curse because I had to be *super* careful to make sure I was never tagged in anything "untoward." I'm a lawyer and my work is *heavily* traditional/formal, so image is incredibly important. And it needs to be as politically & socially neutral as possible. For example, I used to work at a firm where it was considered a hot take to suggest that the color gray was workplace appropriate.... Right now, I'm applying for new jobs, and employers like that will for sure be googling my name. And now there's suddenly 1 other person in the world with that name who now comes up in a Google search. And guess what?? She's rushing one of those "Animal House" style sororities........ FML. And now that her Instagram is public, you can imagine what that Google search looks like now... I reeeeeally don't have time to deal with this nonsense myself. With a newborn, I'm already lucky to get 4 hours of sleep. I'd be happy to hire a freelancer/professional to deal with it, but I imagine that also requires a shit ton of my time vetting a trustworthy one. That or spend $7,000 I don't have, in order to pay an agency or platform that does the vetting for you. Please send help!!! I know nothing about SEO. Anyone have suggestions on the best course of action?? I'd kill for an effective solution that requires as little of my time/money/energy as possible with a newborn to take care of.3
