42 Days

June 24 means 42 days.  It almost looks dyslexic.

Forty-two days until the prelims at the 2009 Master’s Track & Field World Championships.

Normally, this would mean nothing to me.

This year is different.

I’ll be running in them.  Seriously.

My goal is to be in the worst lane, Lane 8.

Got Soul?

Got soul?

Yesterday morning, at Church, I wrote down two things our Deacon said:

  1. What gift am I giving my children?
  2. Deep and unspeakable suffering.

These two groups of words resonated with me.  And while I can’t put my finger on it at the moment, I am processing it and will figure out if it’s something I can write about.

Have  GREAT Monday.  Carpe diem, jeff noel  🙂

What do these key words, and search engine optimization have in common?

They are great Google, Yahoo, MSN search engine words.

Really?   Yes.

So what does this mean to me and you?   Everything.

Here’s a timely, mostly because it’s funny, video on Googling yourself:

We can all use a laugh. Everyday. Even all day. How could that a bad thing?

And the reality is, if you or your business don’t show up on Google, Yahoo or MSN, you’re sunk.

And that ain’t very funny.

Hard work is the name of the game.   Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂

Orlando’s jeff noel on SEO

Orlando’s jeff noel on SEOSearch Engine Optimization.

Search Engine Marketing, or SEM, is pretty much the same thing, so don’t over look reading about Search Engine Marketing.

Here are a couple easy things I did to learn about, and then execute on, search engine optimization, or SEO.

  1. Google SEO
  2. Google Search Engine Marketing (don’t Google SEM – your Google results for SEM will be poor)
  3. Google Meta Tags
  4. Google Tags
  5. Register a domain name (I recommend Go Daddy)
  6. Practice (there is no substitute for hard work)
  7. Keep it simple – try blogging ( I recommend WordPress)
  8. Use You Tube, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, and other Social Media Marketing tools
  9. Pray  🙂

Good luck to you.  I wish you success beyond your wildest dreams.

If your goal isn’t impossible, you’re not reaching high enough.

PS.  I’m currently on track to exceed 1,000,000 clicks in a year, by practicing what I’ve preached.

I guarantee that is totally beyond my wildest dreams.  Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂
