Christy Canyon / imdb

A: If I go to imdb and type "Christy Canyon", her name is not on the
list that comes up; only names that are more or less close matches.

B: If I type "Christy Canyon" on Google, a link to imdb's page on her
can be found a few links down.

C: Even typing "Christy Canyon" when her imdb-page is showing results
in the same close-matches-page I mention under point A.

Why is it so?

I tried Ginger Lynn, Candy Samples and Kitten Natividad. No problems
there.

Not sure why it works that way. I would suggest that it might be a bug
in their searching software. Send a note to the administrator at imdb
describing the problem and maybe they can help you.

Here's what you have to do:

Search "names" - "Christy Canyon"

You'll come up with about 20 partial matches. Scroll down and just past that
list there is "Suggestions For Improving Your Results"

Click on Enable adult titles and names. That will take you to another page.
Place a check in the box under "Search Adult Titles/Names"

Now reenter "names" - "Christy Canyon" and there she is!

Worx! thanx!

However:

From imdb:
Search Preferences
You must be registered and logged in in order to update your Search
Preferences.

It seems, that I have to have a login-name and password as well. But I
do, so that is not a problem for me.

From imdb:
When this option is enabled Adult Titles and Adult Names (which are
names that only have credits for Adult titles) will be included in
searches.

Hm, so if you are a pornstar and you want to show up on imdb, you need
to do something non-porn. Which explains that a search for "Ginger
Lynn" gives me a link to Ginger Lynn's page.

Funily enough "Ginger Lynn" gives a list of possibilities with the
right one at the top (One Exact match) whereas "Candy Samples" takes
me straight to her imdb-page.

Same thing with "Kitten Natividad" ("Airplane" and "Airplane II" and
"Another 48 Hours" (I knew that one! ;-) ) among other stuff)

All those people you mentioned have non-porn credits unlike Christy.
