What do you like about this subject?
Passion! I am passionate about helping businesses with getting ranked on search engines. I am passionate about "localized" product or service internet marketing. I do not believe SEO experts need to be fluent with Social Media expertise.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?
Everything that Danny Sullivan, David Mihm, Chris Smith, Rand Fishkin, Stephan Spencer, David Wallace, etc etc.....
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:
SEO has more factors than a roll of tissue paper has tissues!
Something controversial or provocative about this subject
Some folks think it is dead...... they are dead wrong!
