Hey i just thought of something! if we keep this up we could be the next generation of bloggers! ha! niceeeee! so how about we start a collaboration project and help each other by exchanging trackbacks? If we can contact each other to ask authorization to publish each other's post on own own blogs, and link them back to the original blog we can get cool trackbacks! Anything on my blog can be used by others I give you my authorization! as long as you make the trackback and mention it's me who wrote it! hahaha.

Thanks for the great resource. I really enjoyed meeting your dad today at MauiTVNews.

Aloha Josh, I mentioned to David Fisher that I was looking for a company to work with us in developing an internet marketing strategy, improve our seo and provide monthly maintenance for our web site and he directed me to you and your father.

Keyword Domination
We all know how powerful video and article marketing can be. Instant rankings for long tale keywords and thousands of powerful links back can't be beat!

So I'm going to start looking into some of the other off-site-sites

that will allow you to add content relevant to your long tale keyword. (Basically shooting for instant rankings for long tale keywords...)

Here are a few that I'm going to start looking into:
