It's time to call your Website Designer/Marketer for a website conversation to mobile. Why? Google has given plenty of clues that it will penalize your website ranking if not optimized for cell phones and tablets. In layman's terms, Google is rolling out changes to its ranking algorithms that favor websites that are mobile-friendly and penalizing or down ranking sites that are not.

AGENT[/heading] A local, potentially up and coming rapper, with some good original music on an independent label, recently approached our Omaha public relations firm seeking a publicist. During our conversation, I wanted to emphasize the difference between a publicist and agent. After all, I assumed before our conference call, that it would appear he really needs a music agent, who books jobs. I told him that. While the rapper certainly is in need of an agent, he correctly identified a stronger present need for a publicist. To re-brand his image in a streamlined, marketable way that might attract an agent, bookings, as well a wider array of fans.
