Google+ Vanity URL Help

November 7, 2013 by Paul Spoerry 5 Comments

Ugh… so Google offered a page a ran the /+PaulSpoerry (which was retarded because the page was Awesomesauce. I deleted the page in hopes it would free up the name. Sure enough today I get notified I have a custom URL. But I got offered /+PaulSpoerry<plus add some numbers or letters> bullshit. WTF… I own the domain PaulSpoerry.com and totally manage/p0wn Google results for my name. 

Does anybody know who I can contact / how I might get JUST my damn name like on every other social network I'm on?

Does anybody have suggestions / ideas for the <plus add some numbers or letters> if I get stuck with that?

About Paul Spoerry

I’m a groovy cat who’s into technology, Eastern Thought, and house music. I’m a proud and dedicated father to the coolest little guy on the planet (seriously, I'm NOT biased). I’m fascinated by ninjas, the Internet, and anybody who can balance objects on their nose for long periods of time.

I have a utility belt full of programming languages and a database of all my knowledge on databases... I practice code fu. Oh, I've also done actual Kung Fu, and have a black belt in Tae Kwon Do.

I run. I meditate. I dance. I blog at PaulSpoerry.com, tweet @PaulSpoerry, and I'm here on Google+.

I'm currently work for IBM developing web enabled insurance applications for IBM and support and develop a non-profit called The LittleBigFund.

    Not sure if this is the same for a nonlocal page, but they sent me a custom URL for a local business using the domain name.
    I wanted the business name, after ignoring the notifications for 3 days they sent another custom URL option with business name and city as you can see here: https://plus.google.com/u/0/101092842064661430666/posts/UNYcJZbwG8E
