“…..with search, people are not being
interrupted with junk (stuff they are not
interested in right now). Instead, they
search when they are interested.”
“The result of Google and the
prevalence of search means that people
are far more forgiving of things that need
to be sought out, and less patient than
ever with selfish marketers that insist on
showing up in your face.”
Seth’s Take on Search
“People don't go to Web sites anymore. Web sites come to them. This is, perhaps, the best way to explain the impact of search on the online experience.”
William Flaiz, Search Engine Watch, Aug 1, 2008

“By far the most important piece of writing you’ll do on any given
page is your page title. Search engines consider your page title
to be very indicative of what can be found on the page.
SEO Expert: Steven Bradley
“Relevance means keeping to a topic, helping the search
engine understand what your site is about and, ideally, about
one thing in particular.”Vanessa Fox: Search Engine Land

Business Blogging & Social Media
"It's clear that when it comes to traditional authority figures
– whether they're chief executives or heads of state –
people trust them less," says Mr. Edelman. "Employees are
the new credible source of information. We have data
that shows an employee blog is five times more
credible than a CEO blog – and I say this as a CEO
blogger."
