The other day I was looking for something I’d written but couldn’t remember where it was. The ensuing Google search was a bit enlightening. It turns out I’ve done a TON of writing over the last 15yrs. And that doesn’t even include the 200+ podcasts and Video sessions either.
Well, it’s time to start documenting it. Yea, mostly just for me, so I can find things in the future. But also as a reminder to some of the newer SEO folks that may not be familiar with the body of work and effort put in over the last 20yrs.
