<p>Mashable.com has a nice article about how small businesses can use web video to grow their business</p>
<blockquote><p>There are <a title="25 billion videos" href="http://www.comscore.com/Press_Events/Press_releases/2009/9/Google_Sites_Surpasses_10_Billion_Video_Views_in_August" target="_blank">25 billion videos</a> watched each month in the US alone. That’s <em>billion</em>, with a “B.” So it should be no surprise that web video offers an important opportunity for small businesses to connect with a wider audience. For small business owners, online video represents a chance to reach thousands or potentially millions of people using a relatively simple and inexpensive format. All it takes is a video camera and a little time, and your message could very quickly be spread to a large number of new customers.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a class="post_image_link" href="http://www.formationsolutions.com/blog/seo/seo-with-a-personal-touch-in-santa-barbara" title="Permanent link to SEO with a Personal Touch in Santa Barbara"><img class="post_image alignright" src="http://www.formationsolutions.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/image-shadow/cache/422bc5b0dca1506865f52db09c628004.jpg" width="366" height="50" alt="Post image for SEO with a Personal Touch in Santa Barbara" /></a>
</p><p>We&#8217;d been hearing good things around town in Santa Barbara about <a title="The Search Engine Pros website" href="http://www.thesearchenginepros.com/the-team.html" target="_blank">The Search Engine Pros</a>, a local search engine optimization agency. We thought we should sit down with the founder, and ask him how his firm could help the entrepreneurial clients of Formation Solutions.</p>
<p><img class="alignright" title="Taylor Reaume" src="http://www.formationsolutions.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/image-shadow/cache/0265a70522efaf6c5f56b637cefd6492.jpg" alt="" width="91" height="98" />Over a nice glass of wine on the deck at Coastal Winery on the Santa Barbara Pier, Michael and I recently met with <a title="Fortune 500 SEO Consultant" href="http://www.mywebguytaylor.com/" target="_blank">Taylor Reaume</a>, the founder of The Search Engine Pros. Taylor is one of the sharpest SEO experts we&#8217;ve come across, so we want to share a bit about his company.</p>
<p>The Search Engine Pros is a group of <a title="Santa Barbara SEO" href="http://www.thesearchenginepros.com/" target="_blank">Santa Barbara SEO</a> and Internet marketing search engine specialists offering organic results oriented optimization techniques. </p>
<p>The Search Engine Pros deliver traffic based on targeted keywords by linking, content development and providing tools to track and manage marketing campaigns. Their white hat search engine optimization efforts boost traffic levels. </p>
<p><img class="alignleft" title="Santa Barbara Pier sunset view" src="http://www.formationsolutions.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/image-shadow/cache/c9546cb32a714ebeb0f1bd5bd5c56820.jpg" alt="" width="182" height="249" />As a budget SEO provider, their main goal is to help local businesses stop the losses, and start generating a profit from their sites.  </p>
<p>If you&#8217;d like to meet Taylor and learn about SEO, here&#8217;s something we recommend if you&#8217;re in Santa Barbara.</p>
<p>As a great way to give back to the community, he offers free <a title="internet marketing courses" href="http://www.thesearchenginepros.com/workshop.html" target="_blank">Internet marketing courses</a> and SEO seminars every week. </p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a little blurb that Taylor shared with us about the Santa Barbara SEO seminars and the company&#8217;s busines practices:</p>
<blockquote><p>The seminars are free and are held at the Eagle Inn every Thursday from 5:30pm-6:30pm. A variety of topics are discussed including Internet marketing statistics, Google search marketing, paid search engine marketing, organic SEO, ethical SEO services, link packages, link building strategy, <a title="ppc bid management" href="http://www.thesearchenginepros.com/adwords-ppc-bid-management-and-adwords-consultants.html" target="_self">PPC bid management,</a> <a title="adwords experts" href="http://www.thesearchenginepros.com/pay-per-click-services.html" target="_blank">adwords experts</a> strategy and more.</p>
<p>The Search Engine Pros offer personal and ethical search engine optimization.   Ethical SEO firms on the net are like needles in a haystack.  With so many marketing firms to choose from, The Search Engine Pros are one of the few firms that offer effective <a title="White Hat Seo Services" href="http://www.thesearchenginepros.com/local-search-and-local-seo-packages.html" target="_blank">white hat SEO services</a>, at prices that don&#8217;t make customers run for the hills. The Search Engine Pros is a privately held US-based company that has become an international provider of a proprietary small business <a title="Search Marketing Services" href="http://www.thesearchenginepros.com/all-inclusive-seo.html" target="_blank">Search Marketing</a> services and they are one of the few SEO companies on the net that provide <a title="Multilingual SEO and International SEO" href="http://www.thesearchenginepros.com/international-seo.html" target="_blank">Multilingual SEO</a> Services. </p></blockquote>
