Life As A Self Employed Web Marketer
Saturday, March 31st, 2012A life of a web marketer can be a very relaxing one with the ability to choose your own hours and to work when you want to work. I have been working as a web promotion specialist for the last ten years and have what is known as “proven results”. In this article I will be describing what a typical day used to be like for me prior to the children being born. I love my current life however I do sometimes miss those happy quiet days when I could do what I wanted to when I wanted to.
It is the year 2000 and I have eight people/companies who I am working for. They have contracted me to promote their websites with the view of gaining a higher search engine ranking position and to increase their overall profits.
I have learnt rather a lot about SEO, webmaster resources and link building services up to this point mainly from reading the views of the established specialists from the industry in the webmaster forums. I would not say that I am any kind of web marketing expert but I certainly know more than most!
I would mainly carry out my work in the hours between 11pm and 3am as this is when the world is seemingly at its quietest.
This would be my typical day:
7am – This is the time that I would normally wake up; I would clean my teeth and go to the toliet before going back to bed.
10am – It is now time to start my day, out comes the laptop and we are in business. At this stage I am merely going to check my e-mail; the news, the stock market and read through a couple of sites that I like to keep an eye on such as seroundtable.
10.30am – I make myself some breakfast and head in to the lounge; I turn the fire and television on. I think it is time for a chill out, it has after all been a rather busy start to the day!
1pm – I walk to the shops; firstly for some much needed exercise and secondly to buy a newspaper.
2pm – I take a drive to my local tennis club to play a game with a good friend of mine.
6pm – I eat my evening meal which would normally consist of pasta or chicken and rice.
8pm- I quickly check my e-mails in a short break from watching the t.v. I speak to a good friend of mine on the telephone who is arranging a service for me where by I will be able to make cheap calls.
9pm – The SEO company who provides my article submission services e-mails me with their latest works – most impressive I have to say!
11pm – It is time to get to work – to obtain those all important one-way backlinks and to ensure that the clients websites are still positioned/ranked within the top ten of Google for their main keywords.
3.15am – I guess it is that time again – yes time for sleep.
