I was just at a website searching for references to one of my favorite bands of the 80s named “The The”. Most of the time, search engines are tuned by ignoring words like “the”. Thus, finding “the the” references hasn’t been an easy task.
To see what I mean, type “the the” into Google…there’s no reference to the band in the main results area. Now try it again with quotes around it. Typically, Google will catch things like this but this still seems to stump Google.
But you might notice that the sponsored link on the right returned the correct band. I did a search of the iTunes music store and it too found the correct band.
So…note to self. Don’t name a popular band with only fillers or conjuctions.
