Ade Lewis Talk about the Question - WTF is SEO?

I have had number go family members and friends ask me what it is that I do for a living, and I of course say SEO.

They have no idea what the heck SEO is and/or how important it is to a company that depends on making a money through their website.

Many people can get a fancy looking website - but in the end. If it hasn't had the correct SEO produced - well they might never have their fancy website found.

That being said, I thought a talk I watched from brightonseo.com would be a good starting point for understanding what SEO is and why it is so important.

Work for RepriseMedia.com

One thing that can be frustrating, working in the SEO industry, is the difficultly getting on the same page with the company or individual working with or for.

RepriseMedia.com is not that type of client, and it has been refreshing. RepriseMedia.com certainly not frustrating to work with.

I have been doing work for them, for over 8 months now, and I have been very impressed with their communication style and how much professionalism they show.

A large PR firm like RepriseMedia.com, could be a possible nightmare - if they didn't work so well with subcontractors.
Finding time to talk has not been hard, and if questions or concerns arise about a project, they remedy it quickly.

ShipleySEO.com is thankful for the working relationship that we have had with RepriseMedia.com

So, doing this time of the year when many are reflecting on what they have, and are reflecting on many things that they appreciate, RepriseMedia.com is a relationship that is certainly valued.

SEO is a great job and working with quality companies/clients makes it that more enjoyable.

I hope everyone in the SEO field, find themselves saying the same positive remarks that I have expressed.

Happy Holidays!
