Content Marketing

and

SEO

Content Marketing - is a marketing technique of creating and distributing relevant and valuable content to attract, acquire, and engage a clearly defined and understood target audience - with the objective of driving profitable customer action.

SEO (Search Engine Optimization) - is the process of improving the visibility of a website or blog in a search engine's "natural," or un-paid ("organic“) search results.

Everyday I watch so many brilliant people with invaluable life and business experience come to the blogosphere and

approach it all as if they’re starting from scratch.

- Srinivas Rao

Today you deliver value, Tomorrow you build a

relationship.
