Local Search
For many businesses, local search engine marketing is all that matters. You may want a site on the world wide web, but if you’re a plumber in Wichita, a framer in Charlotte or a real estate agent in Boise you’re probably more interested in getting local people to your site than then entire world.

Seasonal Trends in Content Writing
While we all hear a great deal about marketing what’s and how’s, we don’t hear a great deal about the when’s of the entire website marketing and website content that we’re using. Here’s a good article from the folks at Need an Article.
Need an Article is also a place to go to get articles written for your website. Costs vary from around $5 – $8 per article. I’ve used them and they are not bad.
Email Marketing
Mail Chimp is free for 1st 500 subscribers. Looks good. So many email marketing programs are expensive. This one may be a better bet price wise.
