Here comes the news that the French town, “Eu” is planning to change its name, reason being it wants to have higher rankings in Google! Amazing! The County of Eu was created in 996 by Duke Richard I of Normandy. No doubt, the town holds hundred years of civilization.

According to the Mayor of Eu, Mrs Gaouyer, “As far as the Internet is concerned, we have to bring ourselves up to date.” Her favored option is “Ville d’Eu (Town of Eu)” Some other possibilities include Eu-le-Château and Eu-en-Normandie.

Currently, “Eu” is not getting better rankings, while other similar pages related to the European Union are ranking higher! And due to its poor rankings, people are not able to find the town in search engines, and as a result, it is not getting ample amount of tourists.
