A short note

I remember back in February or March of this year when I was first checking out what Internet Marketing entailed - I listened to a training on pay-per-click marketing and throughout the whole video I thought the presenter was saying "paper clip marketing". Don't laugh - or maybe DO laugh as I am - I actually Googled "Paper Clip Marketing". Just to remind myself I have come a long way from that point in these past months and I am sure others can remember similar humorous experiences! So I just blogged that to remind myself to lighten up!

That's so cute... I like that. I probably have some but I just can't think of them right now!!

I had to make a list of marketing terms and memorize them. It was a whole new language to me, especially initials like SEM and SEO,
CPA, PPC, CPM, CTR, and more.

Over the years my wife has had great entertainment from my vocabulary:) I used to think murals were called muriels as in muriel's wedding. We'd be driving along and see some artwork on a wall and I'd say "that's a cool muriel" :)

Ha ha ha!!!
Now that's a good one!
I like how Canadians and Europeans say "niche". They say "niche" like "each". Here in the states I've always said "niche" like "hitch".
When I first heard Jay on the WAbinar I was like "What, is he trying to sound fancy?"
To each his own :) LOL!

Isn't learning all the new jargon fun?1? We've come a long way Lisa.

hahahahaha....can you imagine?

Talk about silly things...when watching a training video, have you ever tried to control things like the mouse and the scroll bar that the presenter is using on their screen? It's kinda like a reflex I guess..we were talking about it in Chat during the last Wabiner. Forget who was trying to scroll Jay's screen but it is funny.

Maybe you found a new niche...lol

LOL< that is funny. I too was in the same frame of definitions when I first stumbled in the door.

We have all done those sorts of things. I don't have an excuse... I knew what PPC is and was listening to a webinar the other evening... It sounded like the speaker said"paper clip" to me as well. I thought perhaps it was perhaps a more precise marker (pinpointing a phrase within an online document or article) within a bookmark or something like that... I googled too... to my surprise, they exist but not for online pin pointing. I still giggle about that.

good to have stuff to giggle about!

Ha,

Oh Sorry...But I remember when I thought long-tail keywords were called that because they were so long.

They are not?? :P

I think he means a long, single word...long tail is like a phrase really... :)

Long-tail keywords refers to the fact that if you graph out the search results these keywords will fall in the long tail of the graph because they have fewer searches than the other keywords.
