Stacy Williams Named as TechLINKS' First Blogger

Founder of Prominent Placement Selected as a "Community Voice"

Atlanta, Georgia – March 23, 2009 – Stacy Williams, Founder and President of Prominent Placement, Inc., was named TechLINKS’ Search Engine Marketing blogger by Mike Adkinson, TechLINKS’ Founder.  TechLINKS recently launched a series of blogs called Community Voices focusing on various topics of interest to Georgia’s technology industry.  Stacy’s blog within Community Voices is named “Search Advisory,” and focuses on search engine optimization (SEO), pay-per-click (PPC) advertising, and other search marketing strategies and tactics.

“I asked a number of Georgia business leaders who they considered to be a leader in search engine marketing, and without exception, everyone I spoke with recommended Stacy Williams and Prominent Placement,” said Mike Adkinson.  “We’re pleased she’s willing to share her knowledge with our community.”

“TechLINKS is an amazing resource for Georgia’s technology industry,” said Stacy Williams.  “They reach over 50,000 people through their emails, website, and magazine.  It’s an honor to be affiliated with TechLINKS and be able to interact with their community through Search Advisory.”

Search Advisory already has more than 25 posts on search marketing topics, ranging from basic “101” articles for newcomers to more advanced SEO and PPC topics.  Measuring results, avoiding pitfalls, industry trends, and the synergies with social media are also discussed.  The blog is a good information source for anyone interested in learning more about search marketing, even outside the technology field.  Search Advisory can be found at www.searchadvisory.net.

Community Voices is a TechLINKS feature allowing invited personalities from within the local technology industry to post regularly about a topic of interest or expertise. Prominent members of the community maintain blogs in this feature as a means of providing the community a variety of perspectives from different vantage points. Community Voices provides a platform for these local thought leaders to keep the community connected by sharing their observations, conversations, ideas, and opinions.

Posts made by “Community Voices” are presented in a blog format, so other members can comment and interact with the ideas and topics introduced by these personalities. Update comments will occasionally be mentioned from within the TechLINKS email broadcasts and those blogs generating the most activity within the community will also be featured in the TechLINKS magazine.  Community Voices is at www.techlinks.net/community/community-voices.
