As others have pointed out, this search result isn't so surprising.
You're searching for a particular string that occurs as a heading on
your page.  Of course your page will come up fairly high.

Try these other searches:

  mathematical proof definition
  definition proof mathematics
  what is a mathematical proof?
  mathematical proof defined
  mathematical logic definition of proof

I don't see your blog on the first page of any of those.  On the other
hand, it occurs when searching for

  proof in mathematics definition

as well as "definition of mathematical proof" with or without
quotations.

It is silly to think that these latter two searches suggest you're an
im****tant mathematical researcher.
