Seems that several SEO Companies are starting to "make the rounds" once again in calling and trying to convince some of you that "Search Engine Optimization" is the end all solution to your traffic problems. So allow me a moment (if you will) to address this topic:
I labeled the subject of this post "Search Engine Optimization?" with a question mark, because that's exactly what it is. A BIG Question mark!!!
If you use Google Adwords or Yahoo Search Marketing (formerly known as Overture) for your pay per click advertising, you'll want to "listen up". There's a new competitor on the scene: "MSN Ad Center." Microsoft's pay per click program is called "MSN Keywords" which is the first of several advertising options they have planned.
Hope none of you ever have an emergency where you need to contact Microsoft. I had just that last Thursday (February 2nd) when my main work computer suddenly couldn't remember who I was… and booting up, wanted a password that didn't exist. There was literally no way to get my computer to boot, it just kept asking for a passord that doesn't exist.
For any of you who use GMail (I have a GMail account but have never used it
) Google has come out with a notifier that you can download that will let you know when you have mail in your GMail account, without having to log on to Google to check, only to find that you have wasted your time…. "You have NO Mail."
