So far, the increase in business = zip, but it's early days and a very specialised market. I only need a couple of good leads and I'm quids in. The website now competes with top line agency and on-line jobs boards for my chosen keywords, good result, I'd say. Total work, about 5 or 6 hours.Public Service Posting by the BBC - Bloggs Bulls**t Corp.

For a UK search on my keywords, I'm one up from the bottom on the first page now. Not bad. (Seems a good tip above to use IE8 private browsing to do searches from, BTW).Public Service Posting by the BBC - Bloggs Bulls**t Corp.
