Her name is Trina L.C. Sonnenberg, and she’s in danger of becoming part of a growing group of people in the U.S. who are in danger of losing, or have already lost their homes.
But she isn’t sitting around waiting for a bailout. She’s being proactive and using her web business to pull herself out of the mess she’s in.
Here’s her message to Social Marketing Central members:
…set up shop and offer commercial PR services to Irish companies wishing to engage the online channel.
Not wishing to be outdone by Grandad, and just to tell the world that I too joined the illustrious list, I can announce that I too was on the distribution for the PR detailing the latest news about the Irish Times.

I doubt anyone who works in the Internet industry needs any evidence of the huge surge in activity over the past year. Virtually everyone I speak to these days is reaping rewards.

[O]nline advertising spend within the IAB network in Europe during 2007 will reach 11.5 billion euro, up from 8 billion euro in 2006. This is a like for like increase of 38% on last year’s market value. The spend includes values for display advertising, search marketing, classifieds and directories and email marketing.

I’ve more or less come to the conclusion that SEO is now a commodity. It seems that just about everyone in the web design / web marketing industry is now also an SEO. So the obvious move is up the value chain. For me that means Conversion Optimisation and Analytics .
When I say ’site optimisation’ I’m talking about page analysis and optimisation based on statistical analysis of different versions of your page/page elements. In common parlance - A/B testing, Multi-Variate testing and Behavioural Targeting.

Unfortunately it’s not easy to read some of the images used (if any attendee wants the .ppt file leave me a comment and I’ll email you the master).
If you’re looking for a good generic keyword tool my personal favourite is Wordze. For purely Irish data I’d advise using an Adwords campaign.
