Last night I had an SEO dream. No kidding. It was strange, and when I woke up in the middle of the night I just had to remember to jot it down.

I have been doing a lot of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) lately – researching keywords, building the keyword matrix, competitive analysis, writing meta titles and page descriptions, and on-page copy. But the dream specifically focused on writing the page description for a client who doesn’t exist in an industry which I can’t recall. What I do remember is that I kept rearranging the words so that my Scribe Content Optimizer would give me a good score.

Doing Web Marketing SEO is like solving a puzzle or playing a video game where you try to make your way through a maze. When I was a teenager, I used to play a lot of arcade games. But the game I played the most – hands down – was Ms. Pac-Man. I’m still pretty good because I figured out patterns for each level. Back then (1980′s), I played so much Ms. Pac-Man that I would dream about the patterns (go left here, get the peach, turn right, avoid blinky).

I’m doing a lot of SEO for clients at the moment, so I wonder if I will start to have SEO dreams  more regularly now. [Reminder, I need to do some SEO for ourselves. Sometimes, you get so busy that you forget to market your own business.]

Have you had SEO dreams? Details please…

I don’t need a blog schedule, or an editorial calendar. The fact is no one is waiting for my next post. I’m not a journalist. I don’t have a regular column with deadlines. I am a PR person. An independent social media and SEO consultant, which reminds me of the days before blogging. When I worked at a big PR agency back in the day, we advised against oversaturating with press releases and e-mail newsletters. You don’t have to announce to everyone “hey, we’re still here! We haven’t gone out of business. Don’t forget about us.”

Like many of you out there, we here at Concera Media are busy doing work. We can’t be “social” all the time or we wouldn’t get anything done. [stay tuned for a blog post about socializing online].

So, don’t expect regular posts – I know you’re not. But expect Scott and me to start posting more regularly about a variety of topics, which may not include social media or facebook strategies. Maybe it’s about how Sloan is an underrated Canadian pop band. Or which spots are best for fly fishing. And then Google won’t know what to do with us.

Anyway, I’ll blog whenever I feel like it. And now that monkey is off my back.

Can I post with my iPod classic?
