Internet marketing lightbulb jokes…► How many SEOs does it take to change a light bulb?

► Just one, but it’s gonna take about 3-6 months to start to see the light bulb change. And that light bulb’s pretty high up there- are you sure you wouldn’t rather change 10 easier light bulbs?

► How many PPC experts does it take to…?► Just one but the cost depends on how much the other light bulb

changers are currently charging.

► How many social media gurus does it take to…► It’s not about the change- it’s about engaging people in

conversations about the light bulb change.

► How many web analysts does it take to…► It depends which system you use / who you ask.
