Many people have asked me for the typical timeline for an SEO campaign. The timeline of results is dependent on budget & competition, but below is a graphic I created to show expected results with a recommended budget from Coalition Technologies. SEO TIMELINE:

I just took & passed the Adwords Search Advertising Advanced Exam and passed with a 93%. I got a little cocky after my last exam and didn’t study for this one and was surprised by some Adwords API questions. Also probably didn’t help taking it right before bedtime. Oh well.

After much procrastination and annoyance, I finally got around to taking the Google Adwords Management Certification Exam. I passed with flying colors- 96% score. I would’ve had 100% but a few of the video ads questions tripped me up since I focus primarily on search-related ads.
