Have you ever just taken a moment to, stop, and wonder about the future of the internet? Where is it going? What will happen in 2012?

  • Will Google stay #1 when it comes to search?
  • Can Google + gather enough data to get them back in the social game?
  • Will Facebook release their own rival search engine or mobile phone?
  • Or will Apple’s Siri will spell ‘the end’ of search as we know it?

Which ever way you look at it the web as we know it is definately changing. With SEO in particular, we have seen more changes in the last 12 months that we have seen in the last 5 years.

I remember a time when Myspace was top dog and people would search using AltaVista or Lycos but those days are now behind us… Google knows this more than most, the web is changing and the only companies to survive will be those who evolve.

So what is the future of the internet in 2012?

Dave predicts the future.

Recently, I was asked to present a full day workshop on the topic for a large corporate here in Australia.

Unfortunately, I’m unable to release the recording from this workshop since it was highly tailored to the client and we discussed some pretty sensitive information.

That said, I do have something for you.

I have put together some snippets from my “future of the internet” presentation… It’s free and my holiday gift to you – you can click here to download it.

Take a listen and let me know what you think – post your commments below and be sure to share your predictions for 2012. Do you think I’m on point or just a little crazy? I want to know.

Hope you’re having a happy holiday season and I’ll catch you in 2012 and we’ll see which of my predictions come true.

Your SEO Coach,

David Jenyns

I’ve been around this online marketing game for quite a while now and every time I say the word “outsourcing” I get one of two reactions. The first is a look of intrigue – the idea of building an outsourced team is enticing to most business owners. It can really save you time and money.

The second is a look of horror. Either the person I’m talking to is scared of the prospect of managing a team of staff half way around the world, or they have tried it before – and failed miserably.

Both of these reactions are perfectly normal :) A lot of online business owners have major problems when it comes to outsourcing. Many have tried and failed. Some still continue to implement outsourcing within their business, but can’t seem to achieve the results they’re looking for. This begs the question… So why bother?

Well, anyone that’s tried building an online business knows it’s literally impossible to do all the work yourself. Whether we like it or not, online marketing has become a “Team Sport”.

If you have a great team, the reality is you can get more done with less work, and achieve far greater results. In fact, I don’t know anyone who is really kicking goals online who doesn’t have a strong team behind them.

But as I said…

Outsourcing can cut both ways. If you implement it correctly, it can be the best thing that happens to your business, BUT if you get it wrong, it can be a disaster – wasting loads of time and money.

In this blog post, I wanted to do my bit and help you get started on the right foot. Watch a recent video I recorded for the Market Samurai team to learn how I do it:

In this video I’ll show you how to build a team of ‘A Players’ using the “George Foreman Method”. This is the exact method I use to attract, filter, pick and train team members for Melbourne SEO Services.

You’ll discover how you can model this same process to build a high impact team at a fraction of what you might expect to pay.

In This Video You’ll Discover:

  • Why being the bottleneck in your business will cripple your results, and lead to failure;
  • The simple 7-step “George Foreman” process that makes top candidates “float to the top of the pile”;
  • How to make your business stand out from the rest, and attract top “A-players”;
  • The websites to use to consistently find the best staff;
  • One simple question you can ask an “A-player” that no B or C-Players want to answer;
  • A real-life case study example of how I found a recent team member;
  • Why Richard Branson avoids the cliche “customers are #1″ and what his alternative is;
  • And much, much more.

As I mentioned, this video was actually made for the Noble Samuari communitiy and I was pretty stoked with the feedback we got from it (click here to see what I mean! 145 comments and counting). Anyway, watch it now and let me know what you think!

Your Business Coach,
Dave

I just posted this late last week and we’ve already had a few hundred people check it out. I’m not too sure why, but after the first 50 views we had 1 thumbs up and 4 thumbs down on YouTube. Now I know I’m biased but I thought it was pretty good – I just figure those people didn’t have a very good sense of humor. What do you think?

“So, what’s the deal with SEO? I mean it’s gotta be the only time when you pay someone to make more traffic… And don’t get me started on Google…” – that’s scripting genius ;)

Hehehe… we’re always having fun @ Melbourne SEO Services. Here’s a couple of my other favourites:

Hi my name is “David Jenyns” and I have a domain name buying problem. I thought I was clean for a few months but then today I’ve gone and done it again – I purchased another couple of hundred dollars worth of domains.

In a effort to help fix myself… I’m letting a few domains expire. I was wondering if you’d like them? I’m not looking for any cash or anything – happy for you to just take them off my hands @ cost ($10 each).

All the domains are a minimum of 4-6 years old and keyword rich… they all have backlinks and have had either public domain or PLR work sitting on them (happy to give you that too). Anyway, you’ll find the list below and if you’re interested just email me @ www.davesupports.com. Be quick though, they’re on pending delete!

Google is piloting the display of author information in search results to help users discover great content. This feature is being rolled out gradually and will be implemented algorithmically, so author information will not always display in search results.
