Another day another… oh yeah. Nevermind.
So I get to work around 10am. Bryan and Matt are talking about link campaigns. I thought we were outsourcing our link campaign and Matt said we have to do it 1st. He was saying what if someone screws up that we outsourced to, who’s responsible? We are. Which is a good point. So he wants us to do the link campaigns and then outsource later. Bryan leaves and me and Matt are talking. He asks if I wanna go to Florida to train the salesmen so they can sell the SEO packages we put together. I told him I hadnt planned on being around that long. He asks why and I told him about Randy and Vince and some other freelance people that were lined up. Then he’s like, “What about after that work is done? What are you gonna do?” Another good point by Matt. So I need to stay here to see where things are gonna go. He told me that Carl wanted to wait until August to start paying me. Which is right around the corner.
He mentioned the other SEO guy that was here before me and how he screwed up stuff. I told him to pass me the extra work so I could fix things and start to get these people ranked. He said some of them are #1 in Google, just under crappy keyword searches. Who knows? We’ll see how that goes. I have some people that are ranked either #1 or are on the 1st page for certain search keywords. I’ve been keeping track of them. I need to put comment tags in there so I can go to people and show them what I did. I also need to call them on a regular basis and try to get some SEO references for if/when I leave…
I’m still debating about the freelance gigs though. Mr. Noels business alone could have me set. Plus Vince was talking about different ways for us to get his site up and running. In addition to that, I have to get my site redesigned. I’ve been working on the design and Vince will help with the content.
A lot of people are leaving Doppler in a few weeks so I might wanna ride that out but Matt has a point. I need a consistent gig. Period. With the SEO thing up my sleeve, I’m thinking about calling Robert Morris and setting up and appointment to see them and find out whats cracking in chitown.
Speaking of SEO, I finished SEO work on JC Builders, Modern Mirrors and some tax site Carl popped up and wanted done. Then had the nerve to want it on the 1st page of the search engines. I look at the site… and there’s no content! It’s just a form saying fill this out if you want to be updated about taxes! And we just told him last week and the week before about Google ’sandboxing’ all new sites for around 6 months! Geez… Whatever…
This weekend is gonna be superbusy figuring all this out…
