I found this kinda funny. I don’t support one over the other, but if you’ve ever read some of the comments on a social media site you know where I’m coming from.

SES Conference Center

Posted by on Aug 20, 2007 in Blog, Internet, Internet Marketing, Search Engine Marketing | 1 comment

No significant updates…just wasting some time while waiting for my ride. Just my opinion, but the San Jose Convention Center could use a face lift. Maybe the 80’s have made a comeback and I missed it. If the building had a gift shop I’m pretty sure MJ would shop there. Looking forward to tomorrow’s sessions and making my way over to the...

Utah SEO, Bryan Phelps and Paid Links

Posted by on Aug 8, 2007 in Blog, Google, Internet, Internet Marketing, Search Engine Marketing, Utah, Utah Business, Utah Internet Marketing | 9 comments

Bryan Phelps has ranked #1 for “utah seo” for the past few days. He recently posted about it and seems to be surprised by the results. Obviously this isn’t some huge dent in the internet marketing world as the search phrase barely gets any traffic. And that limited traffic is most likely composed of others in the field, but it’s still interesting to discuss. Bryan’s site was started early 2007. He posted about random topics early on. Then, about a month ago he changed his title to “utah seo...

Do you have a question for Matt Cutts?

Posted by on Jun 3, 2007 in Blog, Google, Internet, Internet Marketing, Search Engine Marketing | 0 comments

I’m looking forward to attending SMX Advanced on Monday and Tuesday. I was just looking through the agenda and realized Matt Cutts will be offering a Q&A. According to the who’s coming list there’s a limited amount of SMX Advanced attendees so I could actually squeeze in a few questions. I know I’ve had countless questions for the guy in the past, but I’m drawing blanks at the moment. If you’ve got some questions shoot me an email. I’ll post some notes after the conference. It appears SMX...
