Read More LifeLock How To Take Control Of Your Identity
one of the most effective ways to control a keyword phrase in the search engine rankings is to own the actual domain name that matches that phrase. if you own the domain name that’s identical (or at least as close as you can manage) to your own name, then over time you’ll quickly rise to the very top of the search engine results any time someone searches your name.
when it comes to the internet, you can’t effectively protect your identity by hiding, because eventually someone out there is going to have something bad to say – that’s life. however, if you take a proactive approach and dominate the search results for your name, you will be better placed than anyone else to decide exactly what the search engine says about you to future employers, landlords, people you date and otherwise.
better yet, if and when you do become famous, you won’t have bottom-feeding domain-squatters trying to overcharge you for the domain of your name, because you’ll already own it.
