An interview with CrankyDave - aka David Sacco
CrankyDave (aka David Sacco) is a freakin’ institution, bamf par excellence. That’s it, I said it and I’m not sorry I said it. You can learn more about Google and SEO in general from a forum or thread discussion with CrankyDave than you can researching for hours online. Got a question about Google, best just to ask CrankDave. Case in point; once I was researching link development on Google, and on the first page of search results was a forum post by CrankyDave. Ta Da! See, told ya it’s just better to ask him.
Why?
Well I tell you why. CrankyDave has made it his business to know search. He’s a website owner who took the fight in his own hands and made the search engines, especially Google, pay attention to him. That’s an accomplishment that many, rumblepup included, wish we can lay claim to. His website http://www.chainzonline.com is what I love to call a B3B, a Big 3 Babe, where he’s got first page listing for his chosen keyword from Google, Yahoo and MSN, in one of the most competitive industries on the net. That’s workin’ it friends and neighbors, and (as far as I can tell) he did it all himself.
An interview with CTABUK - aka David Castle
When as a young and dumb rumblepup I first started hitting the web “master” forums, again and again I would come up against the handle ctabuk. What caught my attention about this forum member was his quick grasp of a situation, his willingness to help, and the length and breadth of the information he gave out. Many times, when posting a particular question, statement, or announcement, I’d secretly hope to see a response from him, because he either helped you, agreed with you, disagreed and helped you find the right path, or applaud your announcement with a certain class. I’m happy to consider him a friend and mentor, and have always been impressed by his knowledge and willingness to take a personal interest.
Mind you, dear readers, that ctabuk (aka David Castle) is one of the busiest people ON THE WEB. He is a moderator at WebProWorld, member of every trusted web business forum you can think of, owner of several successful online ventures, http://www.counciltenantsmortgages.co.uk/, that he personally handles some aspects of seo, sem and marketing, and incredibly busy as an UK mortgage “right to buy” specialist. This is one busy cat! AND STILL he finds the time to help, to share his knowledge, and to make the world better for little guys like rumblepup. If he gives you an answer to web seo, promotion, or design questions, rest assured that he’s mostly right. And if he doesn’t have the right answer, which is seldom, he finds the guy or girl who does. A web guerilla marketer of the finest kind, it’s my pleasure to ask him some questions, and have him share some insights.
An interview with NeO - aka David Brown
Serendipity is cool word. It’s got all of those neat syllables that just roll off your tongue, and it’s one of those big boy words I like to use to charm the socks off Mrs. Rumblepup. The meaning is just as cool. It’s chance, luck, digging for worms and coming up with gold. Cool Neato stuff. It’s a good word. I don’t use it often, but when the situation arises, here I come out with classy “serendipity”.
