I created a website a year ago and I simply cannot find it using Google. Searching for the site title: Google - not in top 100, DDG - result 8. I am in Google, since I can search for the exact URL (which is the same as the site name), but otherwise I don't show up. It's incredibly frustrating considering the amount of no-content and repeated articles Google does return.

Related, my biggest gripe with the WWW today is how difficult it is to find personal websites among (what I'd call) all the ad-revenue garbage.
