Internet Strategy Forum Summit West Tomorrow

ISF Summit logo Internet Strategy Forum Summit West Tomorrow I will be spending the day tomorrow at the Internet Strategy Forum Summit West tomorrow.

I plan on having a great time in Portland. It was fantastic last year and I know Steve will blow us away with the schedule this year.

Ranking in Google | I Want to Rank High in Google

Ranking on google

I hear “I want to rank high on google” a lot from new clients.

What do you do if you have 44 keywords in your meta keyword tags and you are only in the top 500 search results on only one of those keywords and that is only in two search engines?

Snake Oil SEO | Keyword Research

Yesterday I was sent a link to a video about a couple that traveled around the US for a year

My wife and I have been throwing around the idea of creating a mobile studio so we could take short trips to the Oregon Coast or where ever we’d like. The whole project is to be able to take our whole studio with us with out packing it up and unpacking it when we get to the hotel.

LinkedIn | Of-course You Know About LinkedIn

Are You LinkedIn?
I am LinkedIn and I really enjoy using it.

Just in case you haven’t heard of LinkedIn yet, it is like MySpace only for business professionals. You can read my original post from May ’07 when I had only 22,400 in my entire network. Today I am pushing hard on 10 million.

Online Press Releases | How to write a Press Release

Are you ready to launch a new online business or refresh a stale one? A great way to drive targeted traffic to your website is to write a compelling online press release. But sometimes it is easier to give blood than to write anything let alone a press release. Here are some steps that will help.

WordPress Plugins | Marketing Nightmare

As you can probably see my blog has undergone major cosmetic surgery.

I installed the latest version of WordPress 2.5.1 and the major problem I had was all the plugins available. Every time I found a cool plugin I would load it and before long I had quite a list. I carefully installed the ones I thought I needed and took a look at the site.

Steve Wozniak | How the Mac Began

If you have been following me at all you probably aware that I am a Mac fan.

The two Steves in 1975

I have met Steve Wozniak in person before and actually shook his hand. I think The Woz is an incredible person and a great educator.
