I thought of several titles for today's post. "All my eggs in one SEO basket" "Count your search chickens before they hatch" even "Humpty Dumpty had a great SEO fall" Why? Because I got complacent. I never considered that I was vulnerable. I never considered that the world was plotting against me. Let's face it, I just wasn't smart enough to see what I was up against.
I know that the content in my blog gets indexed by Google. As most people can tell you I'm totally obsessed with my blog right now, so naturally I've been blogging about the importance of corporate blogging and neglecting other keywords like SEO. Consequentially, we no longer rank as high as we used to for SEO. I'm upset. In fact I'm down right mad. I want my ranking. I had it. I worked for it. Now I've lost it. Let me set one thing straight Mr. Google; we are search engine optimizers. We are SEO experts. We have something to say about search marketing. Is that enough key words for you? Can I have my 1st page ranking, please?
Let this be a lesson to all you corporate bloggers out there. Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Spread your topics out over all aspects of your business, or your competitors will gain ground. You will sacrifice all that you've worked for. You'll be forced to whine and cry like I am. You'll end up down on your knees begging for Google's forgiveness. Heed my warning.
