Hyperlocal News Roundup
by Matt on May 16, 2010 in Industry
Apologies for the slow blogging this month. I’m just back from GetListed Local University outside Minneapolis, where I spoke to small business owners about blogging and other social media tactics they can use to grow their businesses. I do some of my best writing on airplanes, and managed to get a really good start on that Hyperlocal SEO series that we talked about a few weeks ago. I’ll keep working on that even though I’m on the ground for a few more weeks.
In the meantime, here’s about 10-12 links of interest from the hyperlocal scene.
