Our hearts and prayers are with those who suffered tremendous loss this week when Ike hit the Texas coast. Although we fleed our area of the coast to higher ground, we were spared this time. Thank all of you who called and emailed us worried about our safety.

This week I will speak in Dallas at a national convention and have the pleasure of talking about some of the newest elements that need to be included in your Search Engine Marketing Strategy. The numbers bear out that Search is a Killer App, for both consumers and marketers.

Consider the fact that almost 50% of all Internet users engage in search behavior daily. 80% of all web users begin their browsing with a search engine. If you don't currently have an SEOM strategy, and a balanced budget for organic and paid search tactics, now is the time to get moving. You can catch up but you really need to work fast and hard to do so.

If you want to receive my paper on New SEOM and Technology, email me and I will be happy to send that to you.

And, keep the email coming in, I love reading it.

Till Next Time.
