    How much do/would you pay for content?

    About 6 months ago I did a test and bought an article from all the top writers on a marketing forum. It was like 8-10 native writers. I wasnt concerned about the price. I was just interested if content writing had gotten any better since the Penguin algo came into being back in 2012. Only 2...

    SEO: Wedding Photography & Video, or just focus on one?

    Photo and Video will be fine if your site is structured around both of these. If you try to add something totally unrelated like "Car Sales", thats where your going to run into some issues.

    Do you or have you sold e-books?

    I tried my hand at selling short stories on Amazon for the last year or so. You have to be publishing a book quite often to keep rankings and buzz within Amazon, is what I found to be key. But recently Amazon change their borrowing program rules, where they dont pay authors per book borrowed but...

    Video Editing/Production

    Here's a Polish agency I have worked with in the past that does good work. They speak English and can get the job done for quite bit less than what local agencies charge. http://www.genezis.pl/?page_id=67

    Wasting my time !!!

    Been in security myself and know how you feel. Money's good but the lifestyle sucks. With the economy tightening up throughout the foreseeable future I would say go with something that people need continually, but not food, unless it is prepacked. The hygiene inspections and licensing of a...

    Help Me Out With Some Blog Content Ideas

    I think people want deep connections nowadays. Of course most arent willing to do the work to get those connections in real life, being too busy and all.

    SEO Is A Horrible Word

    Its not even really SEO anymore. Its SEM that blends with Social Media, PR, Email, etc. You dont say PRO for Press Release Optimization and you dont say SMO for Social Media Optimization. If you look at all the big guys that have been in SEO for at least the last 5 years, many of them have...
