Back in the Saddle Again
After a long break from blogging I am back in the saddle again. I moved to New York City a little over a month ago and I am long over due on posting. So over the next few days look for me to publish some new info.
Some friendly reminders:
Don’t forget to up-date your blog software to the new version. - The lastest version comes with some pretty nice additions and cleans up the administration area. Make sure you check it out as it also comes with some DB upgrades.
Windows Vista is still a waste of time. My new job requires me to use it. It does have some promising features but overall it is more problem than good.
Keys to Successful SEO
Many people ask what is the key to successful SEO? In a short answer there is no one exact scheme or plan that fits every website, except to have a plan. Like in a business if you don’t have a plan then you are destine for failure. With any effective plan you have to know what you want for an end result and how to get there. Effective plans begin with:
- Target Keywords and Key Phrases
- Targeting your audience
- Writing effective content
Simple right? If you can maintain and understand those basic things you have a the basis for an effective SEO campaign. There are many detail postings and strategy oriented Search Engine Optimization articles, always remember to keep it simple.
The word optimization means streamline, simple, and easy. Keep it simple. If it seems complex then you should change it.
SEO World Update
In the world of SEO there is constantly some new tool that is forever popping up. Well I just found a user input search engine that is fully interactive and user contributed, Stumpedia. I have added several keywords and links. I have already found a couple ares that can and will be abused. I am not going to share them as it may cause problems and that isn’t right.
Google is updating
In addition to that gem of a find I have also started noticing a Google update happening. Webmaster tools are updated and Page Rank is being adjusted. I haven’t heard any official word but some major update is going on.
I couldn’t help but share those two bits of information as I begin final preparations for the beginning of the move. I am still seeking Guest Bloggers.

Calling all SEO Bloggers
Ever wanted to post about SEO? Ever wanted to be a guest blogger?
Here is your chance. Due to my impending move and job change I am not going to be able to up-date as frequently. So if you are interested in guest blogging use the contact form and we can discuss.
SEO Employment
Since the middle of January I have been in search of fresh employment. I choose to focus my attention onto my passions and experience in IT and SEO. After making a few trips around the US interviewing and sharing my skills I have found a fit in New York City.
New York City?
Though I am not yet releasing the name of my company… I can share that they have a long list of powerful clients and they have recently launched a new marketing initiative that will incorporate me!
Why are you just now making it public?
Typically I keep these things separate from my personal blog. A couple days ago I made the career and location change public with a mass e-mail and post on my personal blog.
Due to the pending changes…
In my life I am sure that my frequent post will become even more infrequent. That is where you come in. If you have a post that you would like to make I invite you to contact me and we can discuss.
Stay tuned for future updates and to my personal blog for more updates on the move.
