Mixing Music and SEO

Posted by borlova on July 4, 2008

Well its a subject thats interesting to me anyway. with the enormous interest in music world wide its a massive area to tackle on its own. Music touches everyone’s lives with such diversity and thanks to the interweb (as me dad calls it) its becoming more accessible than ever. Millions upon Zillions of music tracks available for down load. as well as masses of videos dvds you name it its got to be available.

As far as musicians and artists getting paid for the work that a whooping huge subject again,but hands up now who likes to pay for the music they get, things havn’t changed much since I got me first tape recorder and recorded radio one etc. The principles almost the same no one is going to be able to police the industry……its got too big….people will always find ways round to do what they want. I like the idea of bands or artists asking for donations that was a smart move. Trying to sell anything these days is getting harder people have a huge wad of information to help them make their purchasing choices. The same is true for services such as SEO. Why pay for stuff when you can get it for free has always been one of my theory’s I can see big business needs to pay as it has larger needs and available cash. The small enterprise or entrepreneurs have less to nothing to invest  but also need the skills and services as much if not more than the big business in order to compete. My sympathy is for the small business and the struggling music artists of this world  and I include myself in this group. Thrashing around like drowning fish in a massive pond its not any more a closed world, where the media such as Newspapers, radio and TV gave you the information on which to base your judgements. Its a bloody nightmare of a world with people all gagging for the same  exposure, Mark my words this world will change beyond all control sooner or later i can see someone with a big white fluffy cat sitting in power in the world controlling all our lives with the flick of a switch poof the internets down…then what the hell would we all do?

go back to gardening, reading books, listening to music, going for a walk, fishing, playing golf, football…playing with your kids or going out with your partner for a romantic walk.

Well life goes on and the internet wont disappear overnight, it will be interesting to see how things pan out in the next few years what the next big thing to change our lives will be will SEO become a dying art /skill set? who knows things change so fast with technology but basic human needs dont. We all need Water, food, shelter and love. As well of lots of money for doing a sterling Job so we can go out fishing or buy the latest pc upgrade…life sucks sometimes, but sometimes it comes up and bites you on the arse.

Nice sunny day here, so off out to watch the people go about their lives doing the mundane things us people have to do. I want someone to invent a teletransporter which you could go instantly to another place in the world like on a nice relaxing tropical beach.

Further SEO Talk and Future Radio Norwich

Posted by borlova on June 28, 2008

Well Searching Google i trawled Up The Future Radio Station Norwich, live streaming radio over the net.

Further more as I am interested in SEO and the Effects of Viral Marketing I wanted to investigate the possibilities of using music mixing and live radio streaming to promote sites or messages, i think this has to be a way forward. To further develop web site marketing in Norwich, considering we have some of the UK s finest live broadcast facilities and live streaming capability in the country coupled with some of the most innovative and creative SEO and web site marketing companies in the uk right here in Norwich too.

Still I will Have to ponder the matter a little further Before i can draw any real conclusions, about the future of this, on further research I found we have Some very tallented web designers here too a collaboration and mix of music and SEO would be just the most cutting edge and fun thing to do.

Pension Camping in Romania Seth and Hollys review

Posted by borlova on April 10, 2008

Heres exactly What Seth and Holly thought of the village and pension in borlova

the original can be seen on the travel log. here

Romania

Our stay in Romania didn’t start off on the best foot but got better. We crossed into Romania onto a road in the midst of construction with newly funded EU money. To make matters worse it was a major trucking route. We were ready to make our stay in Romania a short one when we arrived in the village of Borlova. Holly read of a pension in this farming village so we road to check it out. Rolling throught the village there were more farm animals in the streets then cars and no sign for a pension. Having almost given up hope we asked a couple of kids sitting in front of the market, “Pension?” One knew a little english and explained that the family of his friend here had a pension and that he would take us to it. He hopped on his bicycle and took us back to one of the first houses we passed where we still didn’t see a sign. We ended up camping on the lawn outside the pension for two nights. The stay there totally rejuvenated our spirit toward Romania. The village was nestled up a valley in the foothills of the Carpathian mountains. It was still for the most part a farming village where the work was done by hand. The village was mostly self sufficient where the bartering system was still alive and well. Eggs for milk, grain for honey. I went shopping in the market one morning to come to find out it doesn’t sell milk. When asked we were told there were enough cows to support the village so there is no need for the market to sell milk. The kindness of our hosts at the pension supported our theory that as you gained elevation people get nicer. One of our hosts was a Brit somewhat adopted (long story) by the owners who knew Romanian. So we could freely communicate which was a treat. But the best part of our stay there had to be our host mom’s cookin. WOW!! If we didn’t have to be in Hungary in a weeks time we probably would have stayed longer, but alas. On our second morning we set off with rain clouds overhead. For the next four days we road through the foothills of the Carpathian mountains. We probably should have enjoyed the lovely scenery and nice roads more but we spent much of this time dodging rainclouds and then trying to get rid of a nasty 24 hour bug that we passed to each other. This and the fact the Tour de France was now in the Alps gave us a good excuse to stay at some of Romania’s many affordable pensions with satellite TV ( a night’s stay with breakfast is about the same cost as camping in Corsica). So our routine in Romania was to ride to the next town and search out a pension. Once there, ask to see the room and then verify that they had Eurosport on the TV. Go to the store to buy beer and dinner. Eat dinner and drink beer in bed while watching the Tour. Soon after the Carpathian mountains we entered into Hungary.

More Gumff from Norwich

Posted by borlova on April 9, 2008

Well as i am page one number one for “Gumff in Norwich” on google i have to smile and be happy i just wonder how long it will last? it was posted a few hours later there it was. i rate pretty high for Dyslexic SEO as well :-) ohh isnt life boring sometimes enough of these silly games

Still not exactly earth shattering news.

My friends in Borlova are playing host to a couple from Norwich travelling through Romania on their way to Greece. I am Hoping their stay at the pension  in Borlova was ok.

Today another couple arrive from Australia not bad for a small bed and breakfast in a sleepy little village in the countryside in Romania. Since i promoted Borlova on the web they have had visitors they wouldn’t normally expect like, Seth and Holly from The states on a bike tour of Europe, they found the BnB on line.

If you think its an accident that Borlova is getting web exposure think again its been a passion of mine to promote the place, one day when i go back to see how my efforts have paid off i will sit back and drink a glass or two with my friends there and relish in the knowledge i did help get Borlova on the tourist map.
