A few months ago, the person who runs elliott.org (a travel/consumer advocacy website) used a web poll to ask for opinions on whether Uber etc. counted as mass transit. I gave mine, and a week later was asked to approve a quote. I OK'd the quote and offered a quick copyedit on the article, which was accepted.
Then I waited for the article to appear, and then I forgot about it. The article is now on the website, with my quote at the very beginning, so everyone who gets the newsletter will see my name and "an editor who lives in Arlington, Mass." (Spoiler: he quotes my opinion as a lead-in to disagreeing.) Not exactly SEO, but I am going to wait a bit and then google myself.
