Ever since Google launched its Google+ social networking service, the company has not allowed people to sign up using names that were not their real names. However, Google has now realized there are a lot of people out there who are mostly known by their nicknames and other names that were not given to them at birth.
In a post on his Google+ page, team member Bradley Horowitz announced that starting later this week, ” … we’ll be adding support for alternate names – be they nicknames, maiden names, or names in another script – alongside your common name. This name will show up on your Google+ profile and in the hovercards which appear over your name.”
If you are a person who is regularly known by a name other than your birth name, such as Madonna for example, Horowitz says that you will have to prove that to Google before they will allow you to use that pseudonym on your Google+ account. Users with such a name will have to show that they are referred to by that name in offline media like newspaper articles and others. Users will also have to show they have a large online following with that name and provide scanned official documentation of their real name.
Horowitz states:
We’ll review the information and typically get back to you within a few days. We may also ask for further information, such as proof that you control a website you reference. While a name change is under review, your old name will continue to be displayed. For new accounts without an old name, your profile will be in a non-public, read-only state during the review. Either way, you’ll be able to see the status of your review by going to your profile.

It’s important that a website works the way it should. We make sure it functions seamlessly in every browser, on every device, from a home computer to a tablet to a iPhone or other mobile device. We scour through all of that code so you don’t have to. What our clients get is a website that looks amazing, is protected from hackers, and it works as intended to deliver results.
Your website should be as unique as your business. During the initial phases of design, our team will work closely with you so we understand your goals and objectives and build a website that achieves them. We’ve consulted across all industries, and we stay up-to-date on the latest trends. The result: websites that are completely custom, modern, attractive and effective.
Unlike traditional hosting, Our solutions are not deployed on a single server. Instead, a network of connected virtual and physical cloud servers hosts our client' applications and websites, ensuring greater flexibility, scalability and accessibility.

CEO & founder
Almost as much as the increase in sales that I received with my Google Advertising Campaign, I enjoyed how the folks at Digital Traffic Factory didn’t try to BS me and helped make me understand (as thick as I am) what each thing they were talking about was. I had someone handling my ‘SEO’ for years, and I never knew what was going on. Digital Traffic Factory showed me – in our first meeting – where I could see the SEO ‘stuff’ on my website. Come to find out, the person who I ihad been paying for SEO wasn’t doing a single thing.

We know what we're doing when it comes to the web. But like most things on the web, a bit of scepticism is healthy. So that is why we put our money where our mouth is. We don't just talk the talk, we walk the walk.
We're so confident in our abilities, that once we outline a plan, if we don't hit the metrics, you owe us nothing for our efforts.
