It’s the same old story again and again… The other day a company owner who had heard about the SEO advantages of a blog contacted me because now he was keen on getting one for his company too. I told him that a blog is first of all a communication tool to start a dialogue [...]

Posted in Communication, PR, Social Media, tagged , , on September 17, 2008 | 7 Comments »
