I have been working on optimizing my company’s website EkoBuzz and in the process came up with the thought of sharing my experience and resources with other people who are interested in learning optimization and doing it themselves. I started reading Bruce Clay blogs, attended Jill Whalen Organic SEO Training Class and enrolled for SEMPO Institute’s Insider’s Guide to SEM program.
