[...] I’ve seen several posts now about running Google searches and doing keyword research to find baby names that aren’t competitive.Â Unless you’re starting a baby blog and want to start ranking for the name tomorrow I wouldn’t spend much time worrying about Google competition.Â Â Search personalization will solve the ranking problems of most the John Smiths and Sarah Jones of the world.

People are crazy? Fortunately in our country you cannot have name which you made up, we have to choose from list of names and if you want some special you need to get confirmation from goverment. Than it is easy to choose from about 350 names total each of them belongs to one day in Callendar so we can celebrate name day. That is advantage and not being listed in SE. At least for child it is better.

I thought “Marketing Pilgrim” was going to remain a competitive search term for the #1 spot.

Bill that site idea is a good one and easy to monetize.

Wow, now there’s a missed opportunity for a cool new site or tool: use the Google API to create a site where you can search for a baby name–and it crunches the numbers automatically, using the number of search results.

Add Google Trends data into the mix and perhaps one could predict the future and how often that name would be searched for in the future?

I’m naming my child Mesothelioma Mortgages. That way she’ll always have a steady revenue stream.

They should do exactly the opposed — it’s not funny going to a job interview knowing that because your name is unique, a couple minutes of googling will reveal your private web-life at MySpace and such.
