It’s official. I am a married man {see the proof at the bottom of this post}.
Now if you’ve been subscribed to my newsletter for any length of time you probably noticed I’ve been a little pre-occupied with the wedding planning and haven’t been as proactive as usual.
My weekly emails haven’t been as consistent and that includes my tweets and Facebook messages too!
That said, it’s been business as usual for the rest of the team. Things have been humming along with client work and we’ve been tightening our systems and procedures.
And I know, once I’m back from my honeymoon, I’ll be “chopping at the bit” to get stuck back into things. We’ve got so many exciting things coming I can’t wait to share them with you.
But I digress!
Here are a few news items I think are important to you as the small/medium sized business owner:

Now, over the past week I’ve been focusing on all things SEO – in preparation of theSEOmethod3 workshop – and you know what I’ve noticed? My methods are evolving. It’s clear, you need more than classic SEO to succeed online! And it’s clear the evolution of SEO is upon us so now is the time to act.
Gone are the days of the quick buck and easy money online with traditional SEO. Sadly, many business owners have incorrectly attributed their success online to their “magical talents” rather than the fact that the internet was a new media and they were getting first mover’s advantage.
Now, competition is moving in and we’re sorting the men from the boys. We’re discovering those who have hobbies vs those who have real businesses.
The fact is, real businesses aren’t single traffic source dependant and they use multiple methods to reach and communicate with prospects and clients. You need an SEO, social media, YouTube, podcast, and blog post strategy just to keep up!
So, have you been lazy in building your businesses? And are you evolving with the changing times or going to get left behind? Something to think about.
I’ll do my best to help but you’re going to need to make an effort…
But I digress, let’s get back to the news I spotted this week: Read More>>
Here’s the Small Business Internet Marketing Weekly with a summary of news and helpful links for small/medium sized business owners. And WOW what a big week it has been! You’ll discover in this week’s SEO news that SEO is definitely not for the faint hearted – this week we’ve seen a massive shake up with Google’s latest Panda update.
There’s plenty of talk around the traps about how SEO as we know it is dead – but you always expect that 
SEO is long from being dead and it’s really just a matter of responding to the changes.
We’ve found those following our methods have been safe since we’re following the rule “build a variety of links, from a variety of different sources, with variety of different anchor texts, pointing to a variety of pages on your site”. If you’ve been following the method… you’re safe.
I’m actually working on a new report (as we speak) about solid SEO. Stay tuned for that since I’ll be looking for some proofreaders who want a preview copy 
Anyway, I digress, here’s the news from this week: Read More>>
