Hi Rob,
I just want to reiterate to you that I thought your workshop was extremely valuable even though I had to leave early. I have already put what I learned to work in my work with clients and will be instituting many of the principles you taught into my own web site. I am very much looking forward to you next workshop.
Thanks so much,
Linda
Great class – an informative, step by step, down to earth, guide to optimization of your website.
Hi Rob,
Your class was so helpful. It was engaging, useful and even fun. I was worried I wouldn’t be able to understand everything given my lack of IT knowledge but you made everything presented easily understandable. I’m enjoying my work in updating my site and look forward to your next workshop. My only regret is that I didn’t contact you sooner!

This class on search engine optimization provided great information that anyone can apply to their website. Even though I am not the web designer for my site, I developed a “To-Do” list for my web developer. He seemed just as excited as I was! I am looking forward to see the increased search engine ranking as well as increased traffic to my website.
