Not really that important, but doesn't hurt.

If you type "biometrics in your browser" or "octopus metrics" into Google, you don't get our site.

That will come with time, with tweets linking to the site, etc. We don't even rank for "octopus metrics." That just shows we're in a back-index for Google, and it doesn't find our site to be that important.

Besides, we are doing ok for "Octopus: Biometrics" and "Octopus: EEG" searches.

We need to make sure to link to the site going forward, in FB and Twitter posts. But it will come naturally. No need to focus on SEO. I think the titles are fine, just needs more history. Google likes old things with a history of people linking to it or clicking the web result...

Yeah, like I said, I looked at HTML & looks solid. You got the right things in title, URL, etc.

Bigger fish to fry.

And we'll rank fine once we get publicity, writeup, etc.
