All about the intersection of search engine & social media marketing, optimization and online public relations.
What a year it’s been. Am very optimistic about 2004 for online marketing. The one thing you can count on in regard to marketing online is that things will change. Convergence of SEO and public relations tactics, more active involvement by Ad and PR agencies in SEO, not just PPC. Mergers, acquisitions, IPO’s and new technologies are most likely all in store for the search engine industry in 2004.
Here are some more formal SEO and SEM predictions for 2004:

About 3 weeks before, we began the process of changing our domain name from a keyword rich, hyphenated name to a shorter name that included the name of our SEO service www.toprankresults.com. The shorter name had already been used in radio interviews and our listing in the Marketing Sherpa Guide to SEO Firms.
