SEO is not a dark art. If you break it down into the different parts you can decide whether to do it yourself or outsource to the right expert, or a combination of the two.

The summer is a time when I get to catch up my reading. During the year I make a list of business books to read but I don't get the chance to read as many as I would like.
That changes in August when I take time to relax, recharge and read.
So this is my list of recommendations. 5 books I've read already and highly recommend. And 8 more that are on my list for the summer.

Ever felt overwhelmed in your business? I think most of us have and have dreamt of finding an angel to take some of the tasks off our hands. The tasks we don't enjoy, we're not very good at or frankly shouldn't be doing.
In this episode I interview experienced Virtual Assistant Angela Bottger of AB Client Solutions who does just that. In this episode she shares tips on how to go about finding a VA, the tasks they can do and how to make the partnership successful. We also talk about how to be more productive in our day.

Websites have been around for about 30 years now. And they have changed a lot in that time.
Many website features were introduced because they could be, but they really don't work for today's busy clients.
In this episode I share 7 website features that I think should be consigned to history
