Information Sharing between Seattle Web Designers and Freelancers

Here is the Start of what I hope is a long line of workshops that i would like to put on.

This SEO Workshop will explain the many layers of SEO and How it effects your page listing. Also, if you find the listed words below as: exciting, scary, offensive or have not a clue what they mean, then this is class for you.

[*]Cloaking and Doorway Pages

[*]Affiliate Ads

[*]Broad Match, Phrase Match & Exact Match

[*]Black Hat Operations

[*]Reciprocal link trading

[*]Keyword stuffing

So come out and join me for a Mind blowing, over your head, talk about things your parents warned you about and come away from the evening with a better grasp on the ever changing world of Search Engine Optimization.

Please RSVP, I am going to be printing some study materials for the group and want a sense of who is coming. Also the room holds 70 people and I am sure we will get people coming not associated with the group.

I look forward to seeing you all there,

Joseph Goodwin

    I know SEO from building it into the core foundation of a website, via html/css, but not too much of the cloak and dagger - I mean, doorway - approaches...

    Sounds exciting. I'm looking forward to it!

    Thanks, Joe, for an informative event! You clarified for me and for others many confusing aspects of SEO, which seems a challenging task, given that it is a growing and shifting field of work. I will definitely incorporate many of your SEO suggestions into my website and into my work as a freelance copywriter. Thanks also to the several people in the audience who asked for specific examples, which allowed Joe to make some SEO concepts more concrete for us.

    Joseph Goodwin,

    Great energy, kept a potentially tough subject interesting and flowing from point to point.

    Covered a lot of ground is such a short time. Offered relevant information of today's trends vs. the old days.

    Kudos for taking this on and sharing key pieces of what SEO is all about. Look forward to future events.

    Hi Joseph,

    Thanks for hosting this event! With the limited time, you probably couldn't even cover the tip of the SEO iceberg, but it was still very informative and I'd like to thank you for being patient and trying to answer all the questions.

    Best, Jack

    Ditto to all of the above. Nice job Joe. Hope you will do more workshops and also host some longer ones. I would be willing to pay for a more in depth class.

    Somewhere between snake oil and solid sense; between bowing to the bots and keeping it real, SEO has always been a tough one to wrap my feeble mind around...

    Joseph did a good job of elucidating multiple factors while giving an expansive overview.

    Thanks!
