This article started off as a simple premise, I would use the experience I had gained while at InsWeb to write an article describing the ins and outs of trying to push a site to the top of Google’s organic search engine rankings.

Jumping onto the bandwagon…
I’ve finally succumbed to peer pressure…all those billboards and commercials finally got to me. Not really, but I decided to move to a blog format because it should be easier to write and publish my articles.
Not only have I moved to a new format for my writing…I moved my whole site! I’m now on HostMonster.com (which I discovered is the same company as BlueHost.com). So I said goodbye to Bizland.com (too many problems to list).

So in the next few days I’ll migrate my writings to my blog from the existing site. This should be fun.
