Egosurfing (also called egosearching, egogoogling, self-googling, or simply Googling yourself) is the practice of searching for one’s own given name, surname, full name, on a popular search engine, to see what results appear.
It has become increasingly popular with the rise of popular search engines such as Google, as well as free blogging and web-hosting services.
With EgoSurf, you can check how many points you get with EgoSurfing, and compare your results with others, which gives you a clue as to where you stand.
Addictomatic gives you the search results of your name from various services like Google Blog Search, Twitter, YouTube, Wordpress.com blogs, Digg, Flickr, Bloglines, so you can see if your name is mentioned in any of these services.
So how often do you Ego Surf? Do you use any other services for Ego Surfing?

I do search a lot about me to see where my blog is. Ego search shows me having 774
Never the less, my full name re-directs to my profiles on various sites

774 is good compared to my number, so be happy
Im somewhere in the 600’s.
Earlier, my site never popped up in the first page on searching for “Ritesh” now it does, so I guess my site ranking has gone up a little
