Flattered and Honored at Semmy Best 2009 Local Search Article Nomination

admin

In their own words:  “The SEMMYS are an annual awards event honoring the great content produced across the search and online marketing industry. Search Engine Marketing (SEM) has grown to include a variety of disciplines, including blogging, social media, reputation management, and much more. The SEMMYS attempt to include all these elements into one awards event. I hope the SEMMYS serve as a complement to the excellent existing awards which honor blogs and bloggers.”My article published on Search Engine Journal was nominated as one of the five best 2009 articles on Local Search:  How to Optimize Local Business Profiles for Free Local Directories

Thanks.  The other four nominees have written excellent articles and there should be five awards.  All the articles plus the right to vote can be found at Semmy nominated Best Local Search articles for 2009

2,000 FREE Legal Forms – Nothing Sexier Than Saving Legal Fees

admin

I hate to pay attorneys when they generate a templated legal form, then send a $2,000 bill, especially during a recession.

I am happy to pay any professional, even a lawyer if there is some real service rendered

I do not consider boiler-plate forms to be a value-added service so…..in the spirit of recession economics and just good sense AllAboutLaw.com offers more than 2,000 FREE legal forms
