Natural born blogger - NOT!

Thought I would blog to raise my profile outside of the very small SEO click I mingle with. You need to make connections in this industry, and being well known helps - Have seen some average people and some complete tits do extremely well out of their self publicity. Which is a good demonstration of the power of building a brand around yourself, and a reminder not to believe the hype.

But blogging is such a chore! Well it is if you’re not a natural writer like me. Blogs are great seo and marketing tools, sometimes entertaining, or just a great way of keeping an eye on friends, but boy do I suck at writing.

Not sure I will post much in the way of SEO stuff in future. Bloggin about seo related stuff seems too old, too good to mention, has been told in confidence or will hurt a friends current strategy if blabbed about.

Had little internet access lately so that also dented my blogging efforts. On the upside the lack of internet means I have been able to finish a bunch of coding projects that have been in the pipeline for several months. May share some of the bits, if it doesn’t giveaway the whole project.
