Apparently I found a new way to rise in the search engine rankings. And it’s probably the easiest method I’ve ever used. Step away from your blog for 3-4 months and let Google do it’s thing. For the term “Copywriting” I’ve gone from about 450 to about 90 since I’ve let the blog sit. That’s ...

Rock ‘n’ Roll used to be music of the devil. Now those same Little Richard tracks from the ’50’s seem pretty tame compared to what we see on music television. Seems that sins of the past can become mainstream. And I’ve noticed 3 “email sins” that have made the move to acceptable mainstream practices. Just ...
