I wanted to give a shout out to my friend Christopher Donahue, and his brand new shiny blog. Chris works with me, so we are constant talking about webby things, including SEO. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is used by webby types to improve a site’s page ranking and position in search engine results, and it’s a good skill to have.
Ever Googled your own name? When Chris does this, an American Most Wanted page comes up featuring a serial killer by the same name…and from the same home state. What’s a guy to do? Start a blog, and optimize it so it appears near the top of the search results. After just 1 week, Chris’s blog is the #20 results…the very last entry on page 2. With some incoming links and additional activity, it should move up in no time. Good luck Chris!
