Website Promotion is not Voodoo

Andrew Shotland at Local SEO Guide has kicked off a great concept: Giving A Little SEO for Christmas.

To that end, I’m going to work a theme close to home:

• Rebuilding New Orleans
• Support Green Building
• Rebuild The 9th Ward
• New Orleans Business Directory

Nice idea Andrew.

A Case Study of Trusted Reviewers’ Impact on Google Maps Placement

David Mihm, a local SEO in Oakland CA recently pointed me to a post by Tim Coleman of Convert Offline who offers Search Engine Marketing help for small business entitled “Is Google Filtering Reviews or Reviewers”.

I live in New Orleans where people do occasionally rent a television for the big game.

It’s an event. No need to call consumer credit counseling.

If I’m renting my 17″ Sylvania that may be a problem.

Website promotion is the same. Rent or Own.

Ultimately you want to own.
