Didn’t this current slap prove to you that once your paid source dies so does your traffic INSTANTLY!

This is the reason why I absolutely love S.E.O and organic traffic generation.

The bottom line is it’s not adwords or media buys that make you money its traffic and I absolutely kick ass at getting traffic from search engines and the social web. The explanation why I kick ass is … Continue reading Google Adwords Account Slap.
