SEO and SEM Tools

Matthew Wilson SEO, Uncategorized

I recently had the opportunity to spend some time working with Doug Drees, the Director of Search Engine Marketing at Mudd Advertising (formerly with Target Click Marketing – the UNI student startup!).  

We talked a lot about both Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and Search Engine Marketing (SEM) campaigns (also known as “Pay Per Click” or PPC campaigns).  He shared some excellent resources with me that I am passing along to you!
