Business Blog Consultants and Web 2.0 Strategists
We are your Online Internet Marketing Business MD's, Michael Snell and Derrick Sorles! Welcome to our site! We prescribe Internet solutions that will "pull" new business and opportunities to you.
Our emphasis is on helping clients accelerate Web traffic and Internet visibility using a combination of Web 2.0 strategies, internet marketing, new media ~ social networking and cutting-edge blogging best practices to exponentially grow their "Web Presence.". We provide business blog consulting and comprehensive Web 2.0 strategies for new online business opportunities. We conceptualize marketing and social media strategies for the continuous development of our clients.
Is your website a glorified business card? Are you even being "found" by search engines? We specialize in strategic planning and implementation around leveraging the endless opportunities to take your business to the next level via Web 2.0.
Increase exposure for you and your company while establishing your organization as the "experts" in your industry. Blogs and most Web 2.0 tools are the most misunderstood and under-utilized marketing resources out there.
Be in the know! The cheese is being moved ALL THE TIME! We are focused at present on business development strategies, complete Internet marketing and Web 2.0 strategies for clients utilizing new technologies (blogs, podcast, video podcast) and other social media and new media networks to drive their web traffic, facilitate online communities and conversations and build a "business celebrity" web presence.
DON'T GET TAKEN! We are experts and have the data to prove it. We have many satisfied clients that will tell you our systems WORK!
We coach clients on understanding the impact of these new technologies to their business and the importance of first mover advantage and SEO ~ organic keyword search discovery over their competitors. Our goal is to get clients to come up on top in an organic search listing for their respective search terms like "BEST FLORIST CHICAGO" or "CHICAGO FINANCIAL EXPERTS" or "HEALTH AND WELLNESS EXPERT."
We have helped many clients get on Google Page 1 organically, and have demonstrated success stories and case studies available for review. Since 2005, we have logged over 20,000 hours of Internet work and research. Our sites are in the top 1% of all blog sites worldwide. On the Web, it doesn't only matter how good you are at what you do-its how many people know about it and can find you through search.
Let us put our expertise to work for you! We can be your mentor. We have BEEN THERE and DONE THAT. We can guide you because we know the terrain, the pitfalls and the challenges. We know what to do - and more importantly, what NOT to do! We can save you valuable time and teach you what we have already learned and figured out.
