Top 10 WordPress Tips For SEO

Wednesday, October 14th, 2009

Top 10 WordPress Tips For SEO.  Twitter can be very overwhelming and very helpful. Here’s a helpful WordPress Blog Post with 10 tips for using WordPress for Website SEO, Search Engine Optimization.  Click here to read the top 10 WordPress Tips.

If you don’t have a blog, that’s OK, the article probably won’t mean much to you or your business.

Blogging is much easier and much more impactful than you think.

There are early adopters, laggards, and the people in between (the mass consumption). To be world class in business, you have to out work your competition.  Anyone think that’s possible without the Internet?  Without Social Media?

If so, there’s a place reserved for you in the museum, not far from the T-Rex exhibit.

Recognize These Experts?

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

The big question today, “What makes a person an expert”?

Recognize these experts?  Here’s a small list to get you ready for today’s main post, which is separate.

  • Equality – Martin Luther King
  • Humility – Mother Teresa
  • Creativity – Walt Disney
  • WinningJohn Wooden
  • Independence – Ghandi
  • SpeedUsain Bolt

Okay, ready?  I’m going to tell you I’m an expert too.  Before I do, please read the PS below.

PS.  I’m heading to Helsinki in a few days to represent the United States in the Master’s Track & Field World Championships.  Boastful or not boastful, it all depends on the size of a person’s mind.  Carpe diem, jeff :)

Wait, There’s More

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

My friend, a true Disney fan, even went as far as suggesting, “You really need to be an expert before people will follow you”.

And I thought out loud, “Really”?

So this led to a decent discussion about:

  • How do you become an expert?  It certainly isn’t overnight
  • How do you develop a following?  It too, isn’t overnight.

I boldly, but with unseen humility, stated that I’m a wellness expert.   What makes me a  “wellness expert”?

Mind.  Body.  Spirit.  Money.

Expert?  Really now?

The ability to deliver great results.  That’s what makes you an expert.

When you can make common sense, common practice.

Bold?  Absolutely.

Boastful?  Depends on the strength of the person doing the “judging”.  A small mind will probably say, “Boastful”.  A humble mind, “Not boastful at all”.

It’s a test we’d all like to pass, but few have the courage to take.

Being fanatical about quality and practicing what’s preached, I take the test daily.

Twitterdom or Wisdom?

Twitterdom or Wisdom?

This thought-provoking article is worth a few minutes of your time.

Oh, I almost forgot, you don’t have 180 seconds to spare.

I was at Starbucks on Friday and ordered a tall (which is really a small – too funny) cup of coffee.  They were out.  So if Starbucks has to brew a fresh pot for you – in 180 seconds – they provide it complimentary.

When he made the offer, I thought, “I don’t have three minutes.  I gotta get going“.

Then it hit me, “If you don’t have 180 seconds to spare in your life, you better go look in the mirror and ask why”, I said to myself.

It was amazing, in those brief three minutes, what I saw in the mirror.

I saw a man who has a difficult time fitting all life’s puzzle pieces together.  But a man who doesn’t give up.

I was sad and happy all in the course of 180 seconds.

After picking up my son at summer camp, we went to Gold’s Gym for an hour.

It was a great day, because I took even more time to reflect on what’s important, and then acted on it

Branding Publicity Stunts?

Saturday, June 20th, 2009

Air Tran publicity “stunt”

Cirque du Soleil publicity “stunt”

Getting the word out about your business has never been more important. Never more difficult.

Why?

Because the Internet has opened the flood gates on the consumer attention span.

Good luck with your endeavors.  Hope today’s jungle jeff post inspires you to think differently and more creatively.  It sure has for me.

Carpe diem, jeff noel :)

Disney, Branding, Disney?

Disney, Branding, Disney?

Personal branding is something we are all aware of, right?  Just like personal wellness is something we are all aware of.  Are you with me?

OK, so we know these things, but the people who actually get great results, versus good results, are those that work the hardest.

Seriously, it’s what we all know to be true, but hate to admit.

Why, because hard work is, well, hard.

Here’s a case in point from my early morning drive to work this past Friday.

Like Tiger told me a year ago, “Out work ‘em”!

Words to live by, but only if you want to get great results.

If great results are not part of your responsibilities, then I would just enjoy this post for what it is.

A personal opinion expressed by someone brought up in a culture where getting great results is a personal brand.

Carpe diem, jungle jeff :)

Happy Birthday to jungle jeff noel

Monday, June 8th, 2009

Happy birthday to me.

“How old are you”?, people ask.  “How old do you think I am”?, I ask back.

The answer is I can’t tell you.  You won’t believe me.

Huh?

Exactly.

Many people thought Walt Disney was crazy.  I’m just a chip off the old block.

People thought he was crazy because he dreamt dreams that seemed impossible.  He questioned things, and many were uncomfortable with that.

He was rarely satisfied.  He was always pushing himself and others to think of the next great thing – something that hadn’t been thought of before.

As I reach this milestone today, I consciously give myself more permission to be a crazy man, in the same spirit as Walt Disney.

Anyway, just wanted to wish all you readers a very Happy Birthday, whenever your special day arrives.

Never let your memories be bigger than your dreams.  And if your goal isn’t impossible, you’re not reaching high enough.

Carpe diem, jeff :)
