		<title>Global SEO</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Site-wide SEO can be added in many ways, which are then consistent on every page. Doing this helps to reinforce messages through the whole site &#8211; but there is a place for site-wide SEO, and a place for page by page optimization.

		<description><![CDATA[To me, it is part of the American Dream that anyone can start a business if they are determined enough, even if they don&#8217;t have money. It takes an unbelievable amount of determination though, and a huge amount of time and grit to do it.

I can understand gasping when you really don&#8217;t have it &#8211; I mean, I&#8217;ve been there too. But to begrudge it when you CAN afford it just isn&#8217;t wise.

		<title>The Problem With Flash</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve made my peace with Flash in some instances. It can enhance some sites, if used properly. But I still have a major problem with people offering &#8220;Flash Websites&#8221; without telling their clients what the drawback is.

		<title>The Tenacity of the SEO Myth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Myths start in one of two ways:

Someone misinterprets something that was said, and determines that a totally illogical pattern must be observed. Thus we see things like the &#8220;leaking pagerank&#8221; myth &#8211; a totally illogical and rather absurd theory.

		<title>The Basics, in Dynamic Sites</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Most dynamic site types have a way to put in Title Tags, Keyword and Description tags, and Alt-tags. Most also have a way of putting in Titles for links and images. And many have control over URL output, in one way or another, though sometimes that control is limited.

		<title>Leveraging Social Networking</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Is it marketing, or is it SEO? Somewhere in the realm between, lies Search Engine Marketing, which is marketing targeted at increasing search engine traffic to your site.
Social networks can help with that. People with a lot of connections or &#8220;friends&#8221; on social networks seem to get a higher advantage than those with few. That [...]]]></description>
