A while back I had stated that I would gladly put your website On The Spot and feature your website on this blog for free. Only stipulation is it had to deal with internet marketing and a slight profile about you so the readers could get to know you a little bit better. You never know, in the future a reader could want to hire your services. Well I have not received anyone wanting some free link love and being put On The Spot, so instead I took it upon myself and will add sites that I like to read, contains great information and I feel that some of you readers might enjoy as well. So this week I am putting Shady On The Spot!
SlightlyShadySEO is not your typical marketing blog, he talks about techniques that range from white hat to the blackest of black hat. He goes over techniques that most people would never think of doing or even using in there marketing campaign. Shady brings you into his world and goes into great detail on his methods. At times literally holding your hand and walking you through step by step in showing you how it is done. Some of his posts are on the extreme side for some marketers as they are afraid to even think about black hat techniques. If you are afraid to try any of these techniques, you should at least take the time to learn more about them. It is always good to know new and different marketing techniques no matter what hat you wear. You never know, in the future you may want to test out some of the techniques mentioned and test it for yourself. Shady is not afraid to express his opinion either, he keeps his cool, is polite and shows his respect while getting his point across.
So if you have not already done so, I suggest you open up a blank word document, head over to SlightyShadySEO and take a few notes. You never know what marketing techniques you will want to implement into your campaign now or in the future.
If you or a friend are interested in being featured On The Spot, then do not hesitate to contact me. Friends, family, readers, you name it. If it deals with internet marketing then I would gladly feature them here. There is no charge, this is my way of giving back to the community that has taught me so much over the years and simply saying thank you.

Would you like us to know who you are? Well here is your chance to let the marketing community know by being put On The Spot. Every Monday I have tried to have a new person to feature, which has been slow as of late if you could not tell. There is no charge, and I am not asking for anything in return. I have tried this in the past and it did not take off the way I had thought it would, probably due in part to not enough traffic coming directly to this site. I am asking for your help on what I think is a great idea, let your readers know about what I am trying to do for the community and have them take up on it. This is my way of giving back to the community that has helped me out over the years.
So if you want some free publicity and be put On The Spot then send me:
- Full Name
- Nickname (if you have one)
- Picture/Logo/Avatar (if you have one)
- Website address (include anchor text you would like used)
- Give me a writeup that talks about yourself, what you do in the world of online marketing, how you got started and anything else you would like to include about yourself that would be interesting for the readers.
There is no limit really on what you can say, just I ask that you do not write a book. This only applies to online marketers, so no viagra, insurance, vacation specials and other non marketing topics will be accepted.

Company Name: WebPageOne Solutions Ltd.
Position: CEO
Search Engine Marketing Company
I became interested in the subject of Search Marketing back in 2003, and still study the various methods of Organic SEO Techniques today. I reached the conclusion that SEO is about providing Relevant information and Quality Content, not just to the search engines, but to real visitors. An effective SEO Service should always provide the Client with a good return on Investment.
WebPageOne Solutions has been established formally as a limited company since February 2007. Having looked into the various aspects of Internet Marketing, I decided that the main focus of the Company would be Organic Search Engine Optimization.
I am also fully conversant with Local Area Network Design and IT Infrastructures, having spent around 21 years working as a Consultant within the IT Networking Industry. The Client based ranged from large Blue Chip Corporations to SME Company’s.
WebPageOne Solutions has grown organically, and now has a good client base that would provide potential new customers with testimonials to our Quality of Service. We offer web design and web hosting services through our business partners, which allows us to focus strongly on the Promotion of our Clients products and services.
The Search Marketing industry although well established within certain sectors, remains little known to the Global Business Community. Therefore I believe that the growth factor within the Search Industry is enormous. Established Search Marketing companies providing quality services and products, will certainly benefit over the next 5 years.
The Search Industry needs high levels of promotion and advertisement. Our joint venture or mission as Professional Search Marketers should be to build awareness and educate.
If you would like to featured On The Spot, please email steve “@” semspot dot com There is no charge for being On The Spot so please contact us today.

Hey I am a Student Graphics Designer. I always admired the way I saw things on the web, and in its anticipation i started making somethings of my own. Starting from making Computerized E-Cards to Flash Animations later. It was about 3 years back. I would test my skills every now and then. But then in this summer, I finally decided to start my own Web Designing Company. A company with a Difference, though not at a large scale, i was still determined to start a small organization, I hired some people, but they eventually turned away because I was not able to pay them, come on I am 16 and I wasn’t able to market my services that much. So I decided to sell Virtual Credit Cards Instead, so now after just 2 Months, I stand with a Domain, a Website and a Team of 4 Professionals. Plus I am hired by a Virtual Credit Card Company as a Reseller. And now I am also buying domains now and then.

Lori’s Professional Web Design
I went back to college several years ago to get a BA in English/Creative Writing, intending to become a writer and meanwhile worked parttime in the college computer labs for 4 years, taking several computer and Internet classes. After graduating I decided I preferred promoting the writing of others instead of my own so I started volunteering my HTML services on websites for a few years while working for temp companies. I learned to write HTML by hand and have never used a WYSIWYG program so I’m able to fix the code when it’s “broken”.
In 2000 I had enough clients to set up business as a professional web designer. Having an artist’s eye (being an artist in oils and an amateur photographer) helps with website design and layout. I’m still in the writing profession but now I write in code (HTML/CSS). Having a knowledge of SEO also enhances one’s skills as a web designer. My goal as a web designer is to design websites so they will rank well in generic searches without having to PayPerClick.
What I lacked by not getting a college degree in computer science I have made up through experience. A lot of my early clients had problems with crooked hosts , webmasters registering their domains in the webmaster’s name, or they were under attack by 302 redirects or other problems so I was quickly exposed to verious forms of fraud on the Internet. Google has pretty much eliminated the 302 redirect problem but other ways of ripping off the uninformed are still prevelant on the Internet.
I eventually set up a website evaluation service which I started about 3 years ago and have written many articles on 302 hijackings, how to stop content theft, getting good ranking in the search engines, graphics tutorials, etc. A lot of my clients come to my site seeking information on what is wrong with their website and end up asking for help.
One of my favorite pet peeves is so many companies promoting site builder programs or crooked “SEO” services that rip off the uninformed because they produce websites that are essentially crippled and then they need someone like myself familiar with SEO to fix their website.
I’m so busy now I turn down several jobs per week and refer a lot of jobs to others web designers I trust. I’ve had several offers to work for big firms but I prefer to help small website owners fix their websites instead.

SEO - Webmaster & SEO Blog
After a number of sites, mostly affiliate marketing i went into the SEO/SEM business providing my own SEO services like site analysis, link building or keyword research. A main focus is also my SEO blog and i try to share and give tips for webmasters and entrepreneurs. My interests are mainly focused on google since google is essentially what it’s all about and we all depend on Google if we want to succeed on the web. I see myself as a new, still small player in the field but i do my best to gain knowledge and also want to make this knowledge available to webmasters or small business owners.
Services offer:
SEO Analysis, SEO Blog covering various aspects like SEO/SEM, methods, internet marketing etc.
Outlook for SEO/SEM market:
I see SEO/SEM as a huge market where there’s no telling wheether it will ever be saturated. As far as i know this market is steadily growing. More and more people start with their own presence on the web and therefore the demand for SEO services will increase too. This is not easy since Google is as dynamic as it gets. We SEOs constantly need to adapt to their ranking algorithms and give this knowledge to our customers. Its important to keep up-to-date with everything related to search engines, mainly Google, if you want to succeed on the web.

I am sure everyone loves advertising, especially when it is free and easy to get. Free advertising that works is hard to find these days. Starting next week I will be doing an On The Spot Monday’s which is where I will be featuring someone from the SEM/SEO community. The feature will include a short biography about the person, where they came from and why they got into the industry. Where do they see search marketing a year and two years from now. What they are currently doing, the services they offer (if any), website address, blog, full contact information and even a picture if you like.
I might come up with a small format that you will have to follow, however for now I will leave it wide open since this is your chance at getting some free advertising here on SEMSpot. Please do not send me a book of information, short paragraphs will do just fine. Being put On The Spot is only for those people in the SEM/SEO business, I do not care how you marketing through search as long as it pertains to our industry. The viagra/gambling/airfare spam will be deleted upon arrival. This is one way in which I will be giving back to the community that has taught me so much over the years.
