First, I must apologize to Eric. He tagged me on January 31st, and I knew about it the following day, but I have not responded yet.

1. What have you learned so far from visitors to your blog?

    OK, I have learned (realized) that I don’t know quite as much as I thought I did, but, I also learned that keeping up with the SEO, SEM and website marketing industry can be difficult. I have learned so much from my readers and the people I have interviewed, but the greatest thing that I have learned was more about discovery. When I started blogging for real, back in August 2006, I knew of the industry leaders, but I have found so many other people that bring insight to the news and what is going on in the blogosphere.

2. If someone would offer to pay for a course (or more) for you, what would that course be?

    Considering that I am about to complete my BS in Business Administration at the University of Central Florida, there are many courses that I would have loved to taken during my time there. I think that I would be interested in taking some more statistics courses and would certainly like to take some courses in programing.

3. Are you satisfied with what you’ve achieved in 2006, in general?

    I think that 2006 was a very successful year for me, not financially, but I would have to say that I have developed into a happier person and I am enjoying the new things that came into my little world during the year. First, attending the Search Engine Strategies Conference in San Jose, CA back in August that led me to pick up on my blog Build a Better Website and continued to get me to develop this blog.

    Aside from SEOPittfall, I learned to ski and learned much more about myself and my wife than ever before. If that isn’t satisfaction, I don’t know what is.

4. Has blogging changed your life or your personality in any way?

    I think that I have become more humble (oops, there it goes!). But really, it has really changed my outlook on life and the importance of what is going on online and offline. I feel that I have a better outlook and can handle the changes because I am more proactive.

5. If you had the opportunity to meet one person that you admire the most in the world, who would that person be?

    I think that admiration is a great thing, however, it is easy to admire what you don’t truly know. I know of a few people that I would enjoy meeting, but each one is for unique reasons. I would like to meet (no particular order):
    Dave Matthews – of the band by the same name.
    Ryne Sandberg – Hall of Famer, Chicago Cubs.
    Daniel Jenkins – CometQuery creator.
    Eric and Scott – creator and CEO (respectably) of MyBlogLog.
    There are so many more that I would enjoy meeting. There are many more that I would like to converse with again.

I am not going to continue the blog tagging, it feels a little like a chain letter.

What do you think? As always, feel free to share your thoughts and opinions!

Are there any topics that YOU, my readers would like to hear about?
