The Life Of A Web Marketer – Blissfully Wasteful
A life of a web marketer can be a very relaxing one with the ability to choose your own hours and to work when you want to work. I have worked in this field for the last decade and in this time I have helped a great many people. In this article I am going to describe a typical day that I would have a few years ago(before the wife and kids arrived). I love my current life however I do sometimes miss those happy quiet days when I could do
what I wanted to when I wanted to.
It is the year 2000 and I have eight people/companies who I am working for. They have contracted me to promote their websites with the view of gaining a higher search engine ranking position and to increase their overall profits.
I have learnt rather a lot about SEO, webmaster resources and link building services up to this point mainly from reading the views of the established specialists from the industry in the webmaster forums.
I would mainly carry out my work in the hours between 11pm and 3am as this is when the world is seemingly at its quietest.
This would be my typical day:
7am – This is the time that I would normally wake up; I would clean my teeth and go to the toliet before going back to bed.
10am – After an extended “lie in” I would turn on my laptop and the television whilst still in bed. I like to spend this period of the day to reply to the e-mails that I have received overnight and to read through the news.
10.10.30am – It is now time for my breakfast – a nice piece of toast. It is time for a relax after all it has been a hectic morning!
1.20pm – I could do with some exercise therefore I decide to walk to the shops to buy a paper.
2pm – I drive to the tennis club as I have arranged to play a game with a good friend of mine.
6pm – I cook myself a quick meal before watching some more television.
8pm- I quickly check my e-mails in a short break from watching the t.v. I speak to a good friend of mine on the telephone who is arranging a service for me where by I will be able to make cheap calls.
9pm - The company who provides my article submission services e-mails me with their latest works – most impressive I have to say!
The time has come to do some real work – believe it or not this is the time of the day that I love the most.
3.00am – I am now off to bed.
