Archive for the ‘Work’ Category

Today I am happy to announce, that one of the options I had recommended for realization during my work on the pan-european Strategy Team of Scout24 in Munich has officially been launched in BETA mode.

www.scout24.ch is Scout24 Switzerland’s newest portal. It’s a general merchandise (or “stuff” as my friends) classifieds portal and covers about 300 different categories.

Also we cover events as an own category and have approx. 10’000 events on file.

I have been named Director of this new portal and have staffed 5 new positions for it.

So in case you happen to be searching for a place to post your “stuff” in Switzerland, come and visit Scout24!

Lustige Woche… Bin gerade auf den Weg nach Frankfurt, wo ich anlässlich einer Fachtagung der Zeitung Marketing Gesellschaft (ZMG) ein Referat zum Thema ‘Branchenfremde und Medienpartner bei Online Immobilien’ halte.

Am Sonntag ab nach München, PR-Workshop bis Dienstag, Dienstag abend Rückflug nach Bern, Weihnachtsessen und Mittwoch morgen 08.00 Soll-Ist-Vergleich… Danke Toni

Last week, I was at PubCon in Las Vegas, learning about Google AdSense, Duplicate Content issues and a lot about SEO in general
(You can read some of my keynote blog posts in my business blog).Additionally I got to meet a bunch of cool people.

Whoever knows me, knows that I am rather good at bullshitting myself into as well as out of things. Well, at PubCon, there was a special party, hosted by YAHOO! (use their services if you can).

Luckily enough and thanks to some SEO friends, I got an invitation and attended the party. It was in Hugh Hefner’s Las Vegas suite, at the Palms Hotel what a location, wow.Now of course I would love to give you all the juicy details, but I’m afraid you know the rules: ‘what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas’

Thank’s again YAHOO!
