About Bernie Schmidt and Achieving Top Search Engine Rankings
Learning About SEO
Several years back, after setting up a personal web site, I was surprised I couldn’t find me on the Internet. Doctors, German engineers, church choirs in Rochester NY, World War II veterans etc. etc all had their “Bernie Schmidt” search engine listing ahead of mine.
As part of developing my personal on-line brand, I set myself the goal of becoming the most popular (i.e. first-ranked) “Bernie Schmidt” on the Internet. Over time I learned and applied the essential rules of search engine optimization that could be applied across all major search engines to improve my personal web site rank.
I am now the number one ranked “Bernie Schmidt” on all major search engines and usually have at least eight of ten first-page listings.
Search Engine Ranking Techniques
The concepts and strategies for achieving a high search engine ranking for a personal name are no different that those to raise the profile of a business.
I am energized everyday as I meet the wonderful people who are taking an idea and turning it into a small business that they are committed to, day in and day out. Living in Toronto (and I know this is happening in every dynamic city in the world), small business owners are the lifeblood of neighborhood, adding value not only for the service they provide, but geographically as well, a focal point for both consumers and businesses.
My goal is to help every small business in Toronto to be found on the Net.
