I shot this wedding last fall in Temecula at the Temecula Creek Inn. The sun had long fallen behind a large hill and it was getting dark fast.
Photoshop came to the rescue. The most prominent feature in the original was that light on the wooden building.

I'm about to test my own theory. I'm giving an SEO presentation to a small group of agents in a startup office. The agents are all experienced. This startup is not new to the business. It's just a transition from new homes to general sales of both new and existing homes. The agents have to use every tool at their disposal. One of them, Like other clients I've had has already expressed that they hate to write. It's going to be interesting to figure out how I can motivate someone who hates to write to provide content for their own interests. Sometimes the challenge of SEO writing is simply getting content and overcoming writer's block.

Months back, I wrote on writer's block. Not much has changed since then. Most people who hated to write then, hate to write now. I checked up on some former clients right here on AR. They also hate to write. They have blogged maybe once per month with nothing more than listings. So much for SEO. If you don't like to write, then find someone who does, or for that matter keep a simple diary and put in some backlinks to your site!
Or maybe just make something up like the AR Blog of Dwight Schrute (character from The Office)

I noticed some of the features cited by Activerain for their "outside blogs" which includes "100% SEO Optimized"
Just out of curiosity, I used a popular tool, domaintools, to check on the SEO score of localism which yields an underwhelming 73%. Well that couldn't be it, could it?
I checked activerain.com - better at 96%, even better than my own website which stands at 94%, but still not 100%.
Then I checked an outside blog one of my clients has which clocked an impressive 97% but that client knows how to do SEO on the fly.
By the way, why does my own wordpress blog usually index within 30 minutes while AR takes around 6 hours, hmmm? Must be an extra kicker there somewhere.
100%? Well maybe...

If you get satellite radio, you'll have heard the Chet Holmes ad that discusses how few people consider how they want to appear in the eyes of their clients. This is absolutely true when it comes to websites. With a few exceptions I get clients that want a certain "look" but have given so little thought to what their message is that they can't
