The Brand That Sticks: Turning Consistency Into Connection

Photo via Adobe Stock In an age where attention fades in seconds, the brands people remember are the ones that feel familiar—no matter where they appear. They look aligned, speak with confidence, and never seem out of place. That kind of recognition doesn’t happen by accident; it’s the result of showing up with intention every time. Consistency isn’t about sameness—it’s about connection. It’s…

Embracing AI: How Writers Can Enhance Their Craft

How the WWW Was Won with Words Written by a Human “As a writer, I am sensitive to Artificial Intelligence (AI) generated content because it has the potential to replace my job entirely. But, it won’t because Google won’t allow it. Google does not like it when you use AI to produce all of the content on your blogs and websites. And, it knows when you do.” Those were my words and thoughts on the…

13 Years, 130 Sites and 1300 posts

Where has the time gone? From Penguins, Hummingbirds and Pandas to a more modern version of SEO, I am happy to say that SEOSAM is thirteen years old. When I first started writing blogs and came up with the concept of seosam, I didnt even know what a Google penalty was. A few quick lessons and a whole lot of failures made me learn quick. It was a tough time back then for white hat SEO providers…

Does grief cloud your judgement? You betcha.

Does grief cloud your judgement? You betcha.

Two years ago, my life was settled, peaceful and secure. One critical mistake, a terrible car crash, and everything changed. When someone you love dies, you don’t really understand the trauma that grief causes. That is until you snap out of it and come to the realization that every major decision you make is based purely on emotion and not sound judgment. It’s terrifying. Is it too late to go…

Choosing the wrong content provider can be a Buzz Killer!

Get the skinny on why I didn't take an SEO job

Let’s Get to The Facts, Shall We? As a freelance consultant and “hands-on” search engine optimization (SEO) content marketer, one of the biggest obstacles I face is challenging business owners and enterprise project managers to re-think how they currently manage content. There is a multitude of reasons for the reluctance. Great SEO takes time and quality content can be expensive. Experts charge…

IF A JOB OFFER SOUNDS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE, IT USUALLY IS

IF A JOB OFFER SOUNDS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE, IT USUALLY IS

I was not going to share my experience with everyone for fear of being judged harshly. Anyone who knows me will say I do not shy away from the truth, regardless of how difficult it may be, and I want to stay true to myself. I have to share my experience. Besides, writing is good therapy and lets me put a positive spin on things that do not always go as planned.   Everyone is wondering what I am…

Clickbait is not a good marketing tactic, here's why.

Clickbait is not a good marketing tactic, here’s why.

To be a great marketer, you must think like a user. I have seen it happen a lot of times in my industry (and I am pretty sure I have done this); a marketer gets a great idea, pitches it to the team and runs with the campaign only to realize that while it works for them, it doesn’t appeal to the populous. That is because they were not thinking like the user. I have seen it happen a lot of times…

Online dating made me want to stay single

Online dating made me want to stay single

The best way that I can describe my journey into what I now consider the black pit hole of modern dating is to say that a few lonely nights got the better of me. Compared to most people I would consider myself to be quite reserved when it comes to sharing information on the web and often I will provide false information when I have no other option. Needless to say, creating a “dating profile”…

Are Employment Agencies Working For or Against You?

Are Employment Agencies Working For or Against You?

As a marketer, I analyse everything that I do, this includes things that happen in my own personal life. I suppose in some ways it helps me to make sense of the world around me. In my recent quest to find a full-time job, a very disturbing pattern emerged and I am baffled by the results. It has made me question whether or not employment agencies are a good idea? You be the judge. After taking a…

What about the Covid-19 deaths no one talks about? They need to be counted.

What about the Covid-19 deaths no one talks about? They need to be counted.

May 21st of 2020 was an ordinary day, a week after I had celebrated my 55th birthday. My family bought me a laptop that I was proudly parading around the house while preparing for an upcoming interview with a potential client. The red dye in my hair had barely set when a knock came on my door that would change my life forever. I can tell you that you will never be prepared for the sight of a…

Remote working is a matter of safety for some.

I admit I am a bit old school when it comes to working at the office because I like the comradery and social aspects of it. It makes me feel as though I belong to something bigger than myself.

Is Your Freelance Business Built on Passion or Profit?

There is a moment in every consulting business that has a major turnaround point, I commonly referred to this as an “A-Ha” moment.

Have you had yours? I did.

Mine happened during an online freelance business training session. The host of the webinar could or would not answer (I am not really certain which) any questions that I asked him.  To be honest, in some ways I truly doubted that he…

Have you ever had a situation happen to you or a coworker that makes the hair on your back stand up? Have you ever wanted to just stop and say to your manager or colleague, “Really George?”
