The Google Forum

OK so I decided to do a Google search of my name (don't ask why):
http://www.google.com/search?num=50&...22&btnG=Search

And I discovered that there's several pages with my name on it (for example):
http://www.mp3talkworld.com/freeprev...73345_preview/
http://supermusiconline.com/hari-pra...c/flute-deity/

And I have NO IDEA how it got there. I had nothing to do with the creation with these pages or whatever artists.

Look at this from the first link for example:

Does anyone have any idea of what's going on here?

Are these just "useless" pages for unknown reasons? Also, I don't know what the chances of these referring to "another" James Lewitzke, but I'd imagine they're pretty slim.

have you ever thought that there may be more than one James Lewitzke in the world?

**jamestl2** · 02-14-2008, 04:24 PM

Yes, but none as really as web-savvy as me

Actually though, I've done a search on my name a few times before, and nothing like that ever came up. You think it's just a coincidence?

**chrishirst** · 02-14-2008, 05:31 PM

It's probably a "content generator"

**jamestl2** · 02-14-2008, 05:39 PM

I had a feeling that may have been the case, the page's content does look like it was randomly thrown together.

**bogs** · 02-14-2008, 08:05 PM

thats usually normal.. you might have a clone... lol.. well i noticed that the name James is very popular.. possible that theres alot of people using it..

With 6.5 billion people, this is most likely?

**dman_2007** · 02-22-2008, 05:11 AM

Your name doesn't seem to be too unique, a quick google search reveals a lot of people named james lewitzke. And the pages you saw were definitely randomly generated spam pages.

**firesign** · 02-22-2008, 07:55 AM

Yeah... Maybe you're not just the only James Lewitzke in the world...

**willcode4beer** · 02-22-2008, 01:41 PM

OMG, you just made me do the same.
http://www.google.com/search?q=paul+davis
Not only is my site #18 for my name but, there are over 7.8 million results. Who are all these spammers ruining my good name?

All those pages you see are either related to something I've done on the web, or it's on those random mp3 spam pages (apparently I'm a famous songwriter

). Which is why I don't think my name is that unique.

**x3mario** · 02-22-2008, 02:11 PM

We are talking world-wide, definitely there have more than 1 result by the name James Lewitzke.

Example:
Your name in your email.
Your forum accounts if you declare your real name.
Your ads accounts.
Your social bookmarking accounts.

That all names declared in different accounts are considered as different people. SE did not even know wether your name in forums are also the same in your ads account.

**ranjuse** · 02-23-2008, 12:22 AM

Hey man.. Its simple... When your submiting directory or posting comments you may include your name.. That name is coming in google indexe pages

**coollokesh** · 02-24-2008, 11:32 PM

My username is more popular than my name ... Now i'm sure i'm a true geek !

It's a program picking words at random to feed to the search engines. Probably it reads pages from the web to build a vocabulary ... and found your name on one.

Edit: According to the webmaster console, I'm coming up as #32 for your name. Apparently this week you've been the 20th most common search I come up for?

**zeruel** · 02-26-2008, 07:56 AM

I haven't tried that on my name yet...
