I thought, “we could really do something with this to build awareness about SEO around the world.” We collaborated, and I purchased the domain and setup a site. However, we’ve been too busy doing SEO to develop the site and the idea any further. Read the rest of this entry »
Optimize your website for searchers and not specifically for the search engines. Search engine robots and spiders will visit your site. They’ll crawl around, but they won’t buy anything or contact you.

Pixel Position dot com once displayed services for SEO and eCommerce Development and has FINALLY been “remodeled.” Dana Lookadoo, founder and Conversational Marketer with Pixel Position, has revamped the site to help companies engage with customers using various Conversational SEO Strategies.
It’s taken some time to implement the proper blog theme with WordPress on a reliable hosting platform. We made some mistakes and lost previous blog databases and indexed pages (OUCH for someone in SEO). Those who know about Pixel Position know that clients come first. This means that working on one’s own site is often second or third on the list.
It’s too easy to be like the car mechanic who doesn’t work on his/her own car! We’ll share the journey to get this blog live as well.
Pixel Position Site Goals
The goal of Pixel Position is to provide a place to have a conversation about marketing strategies – from A to Z and back. Strategies, tips and tools for marketing your products and services (and even yourself) online will be featured. Topics will include:
- Conversational SEO & Online Marketing Strategies
- Search Engine Optimization, Social Media and the world of Web 2.0.

It’s time to get going, again…blogging again! It’s great to dedicate time to others and to serving clients, but it’s finally time to launch this journey in Online Marketing. Get on board! You’ll learn tips, tools and resources to market your products, services and your people! Your ticket is free. No refunds. No guarantees! Travel at your own risk.
