If you ever had any questions about SEO you’ll want to check out the excellent interview Tara Reed did with SEO expert Daniel Tardent. This interview definitely gets the Bob Ostrom Studio Seal of approval. It answered a lot of nagging questions I had about SEO and best of all I didn’t have to run [...]
It’s that promo time of year again and I’ve been working on this year’s submissions. Most of them are in production now and will soon be on their way to the printer. Here’s a piece that didn’t quite make the cut. You might remember it from an earlier post. I had hoped to use it [...]
