Last week I went to a seminar in Nashville called Lifework 2.0 (www.lifeworkseminar.com) that is about Web/Blog design, Seach Engine Optimization (SEO), and Social Marketing (facebook and twitter).  It was led by Spence Smith (www.spencesmith.com & @spencesmith) and Randy Elrod (www.randyelrod.typepad.com & @recreate).  Learned a lot, and am experimenting with what I learned on this blog. 

To start, I moved it from Blogger to WordPress (www.wordpress.org) hosted by Bluehost (www.bluehost.com).  I will also be moving my other two websites (www.bellpaintingandremodeling.com and www.myaccuratebookkeeping.com) to blog-based websites as they come up for renewal. 

I learned about SEO and how and why to implement it.  My head was spinning by the end of the day.  It is really difficult to cover all of the information that Randy and Spence could spit out and absorb it all.  Fortunately, they provided us with many links that will help us keep doing what they taught us to do.

If web work is something that drives you, interests you, or your are simply curious, I would encourage you to attend this seminar.
