Two years ago, I had very little presence on the internet. A search for me would turn up an ancient website I did more than a decade ago.
Several clients asked about promoting themselves and their businesses on the Web.
After eight months of testing, learning, reading, researching and redoing, this is the result of a Google Search for "david anders seattle". I have to add seattle to the search because there is an actor using the alias of David Anders. His web presence overwhelms any search done just for my name.

Eight out of ten links on the first page are my connections, blogs and websites.
There is a Madmimi Newsletter about expanding your web presence, your internet footprint, your standing in searches on Google, Yahoo, and Bing that I sent to some several months ago.
The second one is about claiming your business listings on these services. (Yes, your business liisting exists, claiming it and customiziing it costs nothing but some of your time.

Google Local Business
This is without paying for anyone's help or paying for listings.
You can do the same. There are 15 or 20 options that have appeared since I began the ressearch.
REMEMBER 15 to 30 year olds do not use the Yellow Pages.
