Headspace2 is no longer supported. I can’t tell you how sad I am. Frustrated. Confused. Maybe a little bitter. Headspace2 was an SEO plugin I found some time ago. As anyone who follows me knows, it’s a plugin I have proclaimed long and loud. I install it on all my client blogs. I teach how to set it up. I encouraged it’s use far and wide. And now it’s gasping it’s last. The Handwriting On The Wall For Headspace2 I can’t say it’s a complete surprise to me however. For some time there have been little niggling issues after each update. A quick review at Google for the search term “headspace2...

Posted by Cenay Nailor in Online Marketing, SEO | 2 comments

A successful online business will have a few things in common, but first, here are a couple of concepts you really need to be clear on. You can build the very best website on the planet, but unless people can find it, you won't sell a thing. You can get hundreds, even thousands of visitors to your site every day, but unless you are offering what they are looking for, you won't sell a thing.

While cashing out a couple thousand on a search engine optimization operation is commonsensical to some, others may find it difficult to shell out cash unless they understand the true benefits of search engine optimization that is transmitted on to their business.
