Visible networking is turning into a really great opportunity to get to know people better, get to meet new people, and have some interesting conversations. This time I'm getting to know Mark Geller ( LinkedIn , @markgeller ). He has a really interesting background as a product manager and now an entrepreneur. Tell me a bit about your background. Like many product managers, my background is fairly eclectic.

I've known Farida for quite a while. Maybe ten years. She is a go to person for me when I have questions around technology or early stage marketing and branding. I hadn't talked to her in a while and then because of a presentation I did around Social Media for Service Professionals she and I reconnected. It has been fun to get to know her again. And I'm looking forward to more interaction now that she's blogging.

I recently had a conversation with an pre-launch startup where they discussed how SEO was going to be really important for them. They went on to describe a fairly common type of site that has some original content, but not much. They are in a space where there is lots of search traffic, but they didn't have anything particularly interesting to say about how they were going to get ranked.
