- SEO
- PPC
- Small Business
- Local Search
- Blogs & Blogging

- Analytics
- Search Tech

Three articles that I wrote this past year: In the Trenches: the reality of SMB Marketing- Bruce’s Sew Handy Interview in the Small Business Category and Ranking Factors in Google Maps – Cracking the Code SMX Local & Microsoft’s listing in Google Maps Hijacked (oops by me) were nominated in the Local Search Category.
Thank you for the recognition and my hat is off to the many other nominees. I must note that I was slightly disappointed that I didn’t receive any nominations in the Rant category. I guess I need to further refine the curmudgeon parts of me going forward. I am sure the Merchant Circle and Google would both appreciate seeing more of that side of me. 🙂

Congrats Mike – great articles and well deserved.
Maybe Matt will make a ‘Rant’ category next year 😉
Here’s hoping!
Mike
Congratulations, Mike! I must say, I am totally thrilled not only to have some articles nominated, but also to have been part of 2 of the other articles which have been nominated and which I consider to be 2008’s Local powerhouse pieces. I will be totally proud of anyone who wins and wish you such good luck, Mike.
