Own Your Name: A Practical Guide to Digital Disambiguation in the Age of AI

You registered your name as a domain. You let it expire. Someone else took it. Now when people Google your name, they find the wrong person. Kenny Kane knows this story because he lived it. After losing KennyKane.com at seventeen, he spent twenty years competing with a comedian, a rapper, and a fictional character for his own digital identity. Then he learned how search engines and AI systems actually recognize people — and built a Google Knowledge Panel in a single day. Own Your Name is a practical guide to making Google and AI know exactly who you are. No agency. No coding background. Just a proven system built from real experience. Inside, you'll learn how to: Use structured data and schema markup to tell Google who you are — and who you're not. Create a Wikidata presence and trigger a Knowledge Panel without a Wikipedia page. Get cited by ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity through Generative Engine Optimization. Build a digital ecosystem where your website, profiles, and publications reinforce each other. Measure what actually works and stop chasing vanity metrics. The results: Kenny went from 7 Google clicks per month to 720. From invisible to the top five results for his own name. From erased by AI to cited by AI. This book shows you how to do the same. "Your website isn't a digital resume. It's proof that you know what you're doing." Whether you're a consultant, author, executive, nonprofit leader, or anyone who has ever Googled themselves and felt invisible — this book was written for you. About the process: This book was written with Claude AI as a writing partner. The ideas, the data, and the twenty years of experience are Kenny's. The transparency is the point.
