SEO Company
"When I decided to start an SEO company 12 years ago, there was no such thing as Google. It began with Info Seek and a guy by
the name of congressman frost." So I was pulling 90k hits an hour and making about 115 thousand dollars a month with my own sites.
I bought a house in Studio City California and before I knew it word was spreading fast that "Michael could make you a millionaire
overnight".
In came the offers and I was forced to consider them. My best per day rate was 75k for one day plus bar tab, hotel and airfare to Los Angeles to work in the disk forensics lab where I got to work along side with agents from various federal agencies on a 17 billion dollar civil suit). I decided to leave my other companies on autopilot and oursue SEO as an Expert.
The Client Wants A Say In The SEO Process.
Now this is just plain silly but I have to mention it. There is no reason what so ever that a client should ever have a say so in the seo campaign in any way. We simply can not have some one involved who has no experience what so ever.
SEO Click Fu
What keyword search is it that you wish to be listed for? Have you stumbled upon the latest SEO tourist trap saying they can give you the keywords of your competitors? Wouldn't it be wonderful to just go to a website and it would tell you everything your competitor is doing? For kicks I went to one of these click fu type websites and entered our domain name. The data it brought back was totally wrong.
SEO Chat Boards
I had a client recently tell me that he got some information from an SEO Expert and it was differant than what I had told him. I finally got him to admit he was getting advice from some one on an SEO Chat board. I was just wondering how a reputable expert would have time to dispence free information on a chatboard. My clients keep me busy 24/7 and I definately do NOT have time to help strangers on a chat board.
Top SEO Experts
So who are my SEO heros? I love Aaron Wall, he is the kewlest guy except for his article on using porn to elevate traffic. I have read Aaron's book and though most of the information seems outdated it is still a good read. Seth Goding Brad Fallon are pretty cool too. And finaly I like Andy Jenkins because his videos are funny and well done and he reminds me of a faith healer. And finally Matt Cutts from Google who is just too cool.
