One important point in successful blogging is consistency -- I've seen some really good stuff where the blogger started out, then, for whatever reason, stopped. Like many things in marketing/business, results often seem 'easy' when they arise, but usually a lot of work goes into the process first.Construction Marketing Ideashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16968597544299489425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35324813.post-2267277681751996312008-09-27T07:39:00.000-07:002008-09-27T07:39:00.000-07:00Mark,Just wanted to update you on my Fence site.

Today, google ranked my site as a PR3, and Alexa ranks my site in the top 1million (worldwide). <BR/>I have recently begun consulting for iBusinessLogic and am already working with one customer (who found me through your site) on blog development. <BR/>So, after only 2mos of hard work, my site shows on the front page of google for most of my keywords. I am also on the second page for a national search for "fence contractors". These results have amazed me! This, by far, exceeded all my expactations for this site. <BR/>Keith Bloemendaal<BR/>Raleigh Fence Contractors, LLCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35324813.post-73446747991503051192008-09-11T03:30:00.000-07:002008-09-11T03:30:00.000-07:00Keith sent this email to me:Mark,Thank you for the...Keith sent this email to me:<BR/><BR/>Mark,<BR/>Thank you for the conversation we had on Tuesday. I completely enjoyed meeting you and Bob and hope to build a long lasting relationship with you.<BR/> <BR/>Having read the NC Construction News after I returned to my home office. I realized it is aimed specifically at commercial construction. I take it this is your aim as the projects are more news worthy. My opinion is you could be missing out on advertising revenues by leaving the residential sector out. There can be some very interesting stories provided about the residential construction market (I may even be willing to get involved, if you would have me).<BR/> <BR/>I believe it would open up a whole new area of advertising dollars for your publication. Of course, this is only my humble opinion, and you are the expert in the publishing department. For all I know, you may have already tried the residential side, and found it to be less worthy of publication.<BR/> <BR/>Just my thoughts,<BR/>Thanks for the additional article on your blog about our meeting. And, if possible, could you link my web designer, just in the article when you mention him? I try to always mention him when people ask how I got started, because without his instruction, I never would have made it.
