  When you do a Google search for the name of my site, Google search results displays (by “Your Name”) in the results. I would like this information to remain private without making the site’s visibility “private”.

  Any help would be MUCH appreciated! Thank you!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  There is no author name as far as I can tell http://edgeglendaily.com/author

  Do you have a Google plus account?

  Yes, thanks so much! That might have been it. I also cleared out my name from author area a few hours ago which might have fixed it from showing up in search results.

  Thanks again for the quick reply. MUCH appreciated!
