See here and here for background on my vanity search and experiment to see what influences Google search result rankings.
I just did another Google seach for "marybeth" and found that I moved up from 92nd to 25th in the results. Still not as good as the SE love coming from AlltheWeb (1st result) and MSN (also 1st), but much better than before.
