How the heck can this happen? I just lost the number one spot on Google for ‘Jeff Wheeler’, without the quotes, but I have tons of blogs linking to me as Jeff Wheeler (every single one that uses my theme). The site that beat me has only three sites linking to it.

What happened?!

Look, that site only has three sites linking to it, according to google.

ARG! I’ve added my name back to the footer of my site, in hopes that helps.
