Everyone knows about the “elevator speech.” It’s what you give when someone asks “what is it you do for a living?” or some other variation of that chit-chat ice-breaker. The idea is to solidify your answer to that question in a nice, pre-packaged (I like hyphens today) response to share your profession in a way that someone could understand exactly what you do within a matter of moments. Hence the name “elevator speech.” It’s most commonly used by an entrepreneur to gain funding by a venture capitalist or as a pitch to a potential client.

Sometimes it’s easy to forget that you own a business, or are advertising it all the time; even when you’re not at work. Especially in an industry that requires so much customer oriented attitude, you should be very mindful of the perception you are putting forth.

Google Blogscoped reported today that, according to Google Trends:
“Apparently, people search for the word “Google” on Google more than they do for “music”, “movies”, “flowers”, even “sex”. And it’s happened in the last couple months.”
Hmmm…in the last couple of months.

Text-Links-Ads has a tool in which you can input a URL, and you will be given an approximate worth of a link purchased. For example, you put in http://www.seo-factor.com and it will tell you that placing TLA on my site isn’t worth the amount of time it would take to implement the code. However, there are a few that return funny results, due to the site in question’s status. For example:

With the recent uproar over Google’s request that people report paid text link purchasers, and the penalties that seem to be rolling over a large number of sites that buy and sell links, there’s a bit of fear out there for the site owners that take part in this method. I wanted to give a few tips on purchasing links, and a few things to keep in mind while considering to do so.
Well, it was an interesting week. Seems everyone is at the SMX Advanced this week, so it was a little slow. I thought I would wrap up a few bits of news for a nice Friday informative. I haven’t been blogging a lot lately (seems less and less every week), but that’s just a sign that SEO Factor is doing well. Catch 22 I guess.
This is a tricky subject. I really don’t like to cover it because I feel that sometimes the point is lost in translation, but I would rather explain it here the best I can as opposed to my clients/potential clients catching something online I don’t agree with. So today, I’m going to discuss identifying a quality directory.
Me me me. Read all about me. Oh, and about SEO Factor too.
