Read it. Study it. Be prepared to ask me questions about it. It is VERY basic and there is much to add, but Google did a GREAT job of explaining the barebones. (They were more tired than I was, if that&#8217;s possible, of the misinformation that is out there).  I will assume at the start of our lecture and lab that you have already completed this.<\/p>\n<p>1. Have Firefox loaded on your computer. No Internet Explorer. No Safari. No if&#8217;s, and&#8217;s or but&#8217;s, candy or nuts. (You can certainly have those browsers on your computer as well&#8230;but you won&#8217;t be using them with me.)<\/p>\n<p>2. Have access to your analytics of your site. I don&#8217;t really care what kind of analytics you have, we just need to be able to look at them to help you improve. (Advanced class&#8230;we are gonna hit these HARD). <\/p>\n<p>3.  As well, please have the following numbers ready. #1) the # of deals that came DIRECTLY from your website \/ blog #2) The # of leads (define that how you will-don&#8217;t get hung up on it.) that you received from your site in the past year #3) The number of hours you spent this last year doing online marketing, blogging, social media, etc. (Yes, Virginia! I want you to put a NUMBER to it \ud83d\ude09 ). (HINT: We are going to take ROI into account the Bawld Guy way..counting the skins.)<\/p>\n<p>4. Please write down every question that you have ever had about Search Engine Marketing. Seriously. Write them all down over the next month as you think of them.<\/p>\n<p>I am REALLY looking forward to learning and sharing in Phoenix.
