The Katie Invasion

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I myself have been overlooking something very important in my life. My name!

Who knew that something as simple as a name could affect your brand in such a big way! Especially in the world of online marketing. A few simple letters could be the difference between your website and one dedicated to someone or something else. And sometimes this can be a very negative thing. 

Luckily for me I don’t share my name with any unsightly characters, porn stars or hooligan types. In fact if you Google the name Katie Barnes you’ll actually come up with a respectable business women. 

The “other” Katie Barnes is a freelance photographer based out of Colombia, Missouri and New Hampshire. Specializing in wedding photography, fine art pieces and portraits, I am happy to share my name with this talented artist. 

So my advice to you is... Google yourself! It sounds dirty I know, but it’s worth it. Take some time to find out who you share your name with. It could save you some confusion in the future!
