  • Doing research on website & email conversion strategies. Making sure we have a smart automated system that is controlled by user behavior. #
  • The web requires more than SEO. SEO should only be a small tool in getting traffic. Conversions, follow up and customer retention are king. #
  • Working on creating Web 2.0 Logos. It’s pretty fun. I wonder when everyone is going to catch on that they should not being paying a lot. #
  • @idiot_girl I don’t charge for logo design. I don’t even charge fees. I am too busy making money on our own company websites to have clients in reply to idiot_girl #
  • testing out Dragon Naturally Speaking voice recognition software which allows me to automatically transcribe my SEO podcasts into text. #
  • @idiot_girl I just said I don’t have clients. I work for a business that owns websites. We make money with the websites. It is pretty simple in reply to idiot_girl #
  • @idiot_girl Actually, that is what I am saying. Logos do not bring businesses money. They can repel money if they are horrid but not usually in reply to idiot_girl #
  • @idiot_girl Designers who are not “usability conscious” and do not know “SEO” usually cost their clients their only hope of online success. in reply to idiot_girl #

  • @idiot_girl Branding is for multimillion dollar companies if and when they are willing to put up a million dollar branding budget. in reply to idiot_girl #
  • @idiot_girl Design for the sake of art is irrelevant on the web. Design with the backing of psychology for conversions is where it rules. in reply to idiot_girl #
  • @idiot_girl I am not sure why you seem so upset at me and insulted. In 8 months we have built a business that is grossing over 100k monthly. in reply to idiot_girl #
  • SEO Tip: SEO has a new name “Content Creation.” Create video, audio, PDF Downloads, ect. & track which visitors like which & market that. #
  • Institutionally educated people are stuck in the dark ages and will usually continue trading hours for dollars with no real profit to be had #
  • Going through the massive tons of email before I get my work day going. @dangayle ’s idea for a spam profiler comedy site is a good idea. #
  • Trying to come up with new & exciting ways to create content that is attractive to visitors for enjoyment and bloggers for them to link to. #
  • @dangayle You are doing really awesome work on that stock website. You have a great way of viewing the web through code. #
  • @mittalpatel have a good time. in reply to mittalpatel #
  • @mittalpatel Things are really good. I have been working more on company projects then my own right now. Can you design skins for Thesis? in reply to mittalpatel #
  • I hate slow PC computers. My IMAC is so sweet compared to this stupid hunk of junk windows cracker jack box. Arrrgg!! #
  • I want to learn PHP so I cam mod all my own Wordpress Themes so they are SEO compliant. I haven’t found a good one yet even out of premiums. #
  • I am thinking about designing a training course for teachers so they can teach their students about the internet and how to use it. #
  • @wordcast Headspace2 is better than All In One. I hate using plugins when theyre not needed. I like SEO design not patching holes in themes. in reply to wordcast #
  • @icelander Search Engine Optimization’s new name is Content Creation (Not Voodoo) See http://bit.ly/jyb0i in reply to icelander #
  • @icelander Matt Cutts of Google said “Wordpress is pretty much compliant.” One problem is no control of meta description and meta title. in reply to icelander #
  • @woothemes Your home page has your name as your H1 tag. Your meta title is messed up & your meta description is missing. View with no styles in reply to woothemes #
  • @icelander Google cares about click through rate (CTR). The more compelling your meta title and description the better CTR & more visitors. in reply to icelander #
  • @icelander The more people who click through to your site & don’t immediately hit the back button the better. Google tracks user behavior. in reply to icelander #
  • @icelander Google only wants to rank sites that their searchers value. If you do not create compelling content they will click back button. in reply to icelander #
  • @icelander If you are ranked #3 but get more clicks than number #2 because your meta title/description is better, you will soon out rank #2. in reply to icelander #
  • @MCoMarketing It is about 100 times more advanced. I don’t like that headspace2 does not have character counter on the meta description box. in reply to MCoMarketing #
  • @woothemes Your themes look especially awesome. I did notice your site is very highly ranked. What would a 1% sales improvement mean to you? in reply to woothemes #
  • @paydayloanlady What are you doing that for? How does that help? Please explain? in reply to paydayloanlady #
  • Waiting for the DNS to populate when moving a website is a drag. Seems to be taking longer these days the in the past. #

  • @woothemes SkyRocket Websites now has a lot of links pointing at this worthless page: http://skyrocketwebsites.com/go/woothemes/ in reply to woothemes #
  • @woothemes I did notice that they used the link title tag in the links to their site in the bottom of themes and you did not, but should. in reply to woothemes #
  • @woothemes I did notice that your showcase themes where using an H1 tag to surround the logo image. See http://optimizationtutor.com/?p=661 in reply to woothemes #
