Hey all
Just wanted to apologize for the blog silence over the past few days. I’ve been moving house and have been without Internet access for 48 hours. I’m now in the new place, surrounded by boxes and an overflowing In-Tray so I know you’ll forgive me if I skip question duty this week.
Will hopefully get my mojo back on the weekend when I head off to Hanmer Springs with family and friends for some serious soaking in the hot thermal pools. Catch you next week!

Hey gang
Just wanted to say thanks for the recent influx of blog questions and caffeine donations. Sorry for the delay in answering these, I have quite a backlog of questions built up since SMX Sydney and I’m slowly wading through them. If you have submitted a question to me in the past 2 months and are yet to see an answer, please be patient, I WILL answer you.
If you submitted a question to me over 2 months ago without a response, please ping me here and I’ll do my best to move it to the top of the pile. Keep in mind that if you’ve asked me a series of questions or a highly technical question, it does take me some research time, so a caffeine injection would be appreciated as a fair trade.
thanks
Kalena

Well after only a month of being listed in the Top 100 Australian Blogs Index, I’m thrilled to say that this blog has moved up 14 spots from position #75 in March to position #61 this month. Heck, I’m even beating Duncan Riley who’s at #63. Woohoo!
Thanks to all my subscribers who have helped boost the stats. If you haven’t yet subscribed, press the big red feed button on the left and help me reach the top 50 next month.

Hey groovers!
Just a heads up that I’m flying out to Oztralia in the morning at some shocking hour - 6am or something - for a fun-filled 5 days in Sydney. which means I won’t be posting here for a couple of days as I’ll be too busy partying working.
I’m heading off to SMX Sydney to (wo)man our Search Engine College booth, give a presentation and meet some fellow geeks and industry rockstars like Danny Sullivan, Jane Copland, Rand Fishkin and Marissa Mayer. I might even catch up with some old friends and family while there. Old as in historically linked, not old as in ancient!
When we’re not (wo)manning the booth and dishing out rather boring schwag (sorry about that - but you try coming up with a witty t-shirt design at 2am), my trusty sidekick Sarah and I will be taking copious notes in the hopes of blogging some of the more exciting sessions next week.
If you’re heading to SMX Sydney, make sure you stop by our booth and say hi. Later!

Have you ever experienced a self-defining moment? Where you realize that the seemingly benign thought that just floated through your mind has the potential to change your life?
Well that happened to me today. I was reading a blog post about the problems that a particular company was having with their online marketing model and thinking about how to apply some of the ideas to my own company, when suddenly one of those concepts came rushing back to me in huge bold flashing font complete with the opening chords of Beethoven’s 5th.
In that one moment of complete clarity, I realized that I had both the solution to a frustrating time-management problem AND a new business model. Eureka! My “Aha” moment has given me renewed enthusiasm for this industry and I can’t wait to get started on the big idea. More details soon!
