I agree that the more your URL is out there, the more likely Google's bot will pick it up. My site, however, is not listed by the greek life office or IHQ. I did a lot of searches for my site and picked it a huge number of times to get it to move up the Google list. Also, make sure that your page has a description imbedded that describes your chapter how people will most likely look for it. I had to change mine to AOII at Towson University since using AOII Theta Beta Chapter made it harder to find on Google.
