It can summarize an entire presentation. Most speakers would even use quotes from famous people to make their speech memorable.

There might have been a few that got lucky somehow, but it's not like that. You have to build a real business online, and then it's hard work, it's making something good. It's like any business; you can't just open up a store somewhere and expect to get business. It's all marketing, and it's really come full circle now, with people trying to understand that you have to market your web site online and offline and any way that you can.”



- Jill Whalen, High Rankings



8. “SEO isn’t an entitlement program. It’s an ongoing investment that must be resourced properly. It’s not a one-hit, one-phrase paradigm. It’s not built on quick wins for trophy phrases. There are hard costs and soft costs associated with building a successful SEO strategy that deserve proper budget allocations.”



- P.J. Fusco, The ClickZ Network
