SEO: It's hard to find this GitHub project when searching the web for 'CMSD'

Closed this issue · 3 comments

I remember this project by its acronymn rather than the full name - but when searching on Google for 'cmsd' it doesn't show up. 'cmsd cta' doesn't really help either. 'cmsd cta wave' gets me a link to the parent GitHub org (but it's flagged as missing 'cmsd'):

I wonder if some more uses of the acronymn in README.md might help search engines associate the acronymn with this page?

(this is obviously not a major deal - just flagging as a minor thing)

@ali - add some SEO text to that search engines with index us via CMSD

Here is the suggested text for the readme.md:

Editors:

  • Will Law - Akamai
  • Ali C. Begen - Comcast / Ozyegin University
  • Josh Evans - Datazoom
