I got into internet marketing by way of SEO copywriting. Eventually the SEO interested me more than the copywriting, and it’s turned into my passion.
I love how SEO combines left- and right-brain thinking. You’ve got to balance the dollars-and-cents ROI and the code with compelling marketing messages and searcher intent.
Internet marketing is newer and more efficient, effective and measurable than any other type of marketing out there. Of every internet marketing tactic available, right now SEO is my favorite because it requires a certain level of geekiness, it’s really, really cost-effective and it’s second only to PPC in its measurability.
In my advertising copywriting internship I always wanted to know “how is this going to sell products?” And with traditional advertising, the link between ad and product sales was tenuous. But with tactics like SEO, conversion optimization and PPC, you can actually tie your efforts directly to sales and revenue.
Check out my DC SEO blog. I’ve tried to gear it towards other internet marketers as well as business owners who want to learn more about SEO. If you’re a DC-based internet marketing professional I’d love to talk shop. If you’re a business in need of SEO, I’d love to help you out. Either way, drop me a line by filling out my contact form.
Besides SEO, I like sushi, non-fiction books, politics and economics and horrible reality television. Sister Wives? Can’t wait until it’s available online or on DVD. Really I just love television way more than someone without cable should.
