I began my journey of SEO and Content Writing at the inception of the internet and the start of Google. That makes me older than dirt and I didn't earn any certificates or special awards - I just worked my way through things. And then... One day I woke up and realized that I'm really good at this stuff and started selling my business services. And well... Here I am. I'm not a self made millionaire because I believe in helping small businesses and doing good. Maybe some day... And then again there is PowerBall.
Truth is the most important thing to me. I've been there - done that... and lived to tell about it. So it's important to me, to tell the truth, about SEO and content writing without tricks, without some crackpot belief that there is an ancient SEO "god" to pay homage to. Just make your site for your customers and your clients. Stop thinking about the Search Engines and make a difference in your world. Tricks die... Good writing will remain. Pay attention to that last sentence.
I'm famous in some industries - and in others they find me a nuisance. You can choose whatever you like to think about me. My work speaks for itself and the businesses that I've managed online and offline speak for me!
