October 2009 NY Tech MeetUp.

I bumped into Nate late Friday evening on the subway as I was on my way back from a major Nepali event (Interaction With Madhav Nepal: Friday), and he was on his way to a party. That is when I learned about "AnyClip won TC50, now wins your hearts!" I think that is going to be the most exciting of all presentations Tuesday. I think it adds to Nate being the NY Tech MeetUp Organizer that he is a top notch entrepreneur himself. And I told him so on the train. I also told him Nepal is the poorest country outside of Africa, "not many people know that." He didn't.

The Time article grabbed my attention and I signed up right away. The site suggests I need to get paid $34.07 per tweet. I am not complaining. Twitter has been my 2009 fascination. And I have worked hard to build a stream and a following. I am at 23,000 followers and counting and a day or two away from becoming one of the top 100 Twitter users in New York City. I am not complaining.

Twitter so far has been quite a journey.

Search Engine Optimization



Search engine optimization is not black magic. It is essential. It is basic. Unless you entirely missed out on the whole internet thing. How could you have?

You want to be found. That applies to big media websites, but also applies to local businesses. People will look you up on the internet before they show up at your storefront.

SEO is not about tricking people into showing up. It is about helping people find you. Big difference.

It is about putting in the right words, but it is also about deserving and getting inbound links. This is a link economy, many would say.

And the online world is hardly for just tech companies. There is no line of business that need not be online. No business is too small to get online. People do local search to get to you. Are you optimized yet?
