Working on other peoples sites is a great way to learn more about the world of online marketing. Business owners who know little about the web actually teach you things that you could never learn simply by sucking on that RSS teat.<\/p>\n<p>This blog is a product of wanting to become an SEO consultant, the funny thing is the blog has been wildly more successful than I expected.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, it&#8217;s not for everyone. Social and communication skills are a must, although I feel these can be learned. If you haven&#8217;t got a stable base already it can be hard chasing down those first few leads, but afterword gets around referrals start coming in.<\/p>\n<p>I really like the fact I am helping my local community rank with some of the big boys. Although dealing with corporates is not for me, too frustrating. I am happy being a local SEO consultant for now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Being new to the world of SEO consulting, I have had to learn to communicate with civilians, and those who do not have a consultancy do not know how hard it is.
