I went on to win some good contracts and created work for other moms to do at home. When I won my first corporate contract I told myself, “well, maybe I can find a job when this ends” and I have continued to say that for 20 years. I still own and operate DataPlus but I have a weakness: I grew a company and managed to stay busy through word of mouth and a couple of large corporate clients but I did no marketing.
You can see how dangerous that is, especially when service saudi arabia mobile phone numbers database s are being sent offshore to perceived cheaper labor as they are. Thus my recent interest in SEO. I knew being found on the web had to be a good thing since it's the first, and usually only, place I go when I need a service provider. But when I checked, my site came up nowhere! What good is a website if nobody sees it? I searched the web for help and arrived at SEOnoz.
I found Rand Fishkin's “Beginners Guide to Search Engine Optimization.” I learned about: Keyword research Targeted unique titles and Metadata Avoiding duplicate content Submitting to search engines Writing my content for functionality and accessibility Using keywords in my content How the spiders crawl my site Comparing my site to competitors Link building Nofollow and dofollow links Sitemaps I submitted my site to all the search engines, Google, Yahoo and Bing Local.
It was pretty much Greek to me but I stuck with it and systematically tried to understand and apply his advice
