Getting rid of scars… (the physical kind that is)

AnnabelH — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 10:28:00 +0000

As some of you may know, I had a bike accident last summer. It was pretty unspectacular, no other people or vehicles were involved, I have no recollection of what happened and the man at the bike shop couldn’t for the life of him figure out what happened to mangle my entire front wheel when [...]

International SEO Presentation, International Search Summit 2011

AnnabelH — Thu, 01 Mar 2012 11:24:06 +0000

Morning sinners. I’m utterly terrible at remembering to post my presentations online so today I will regale you with not one but two, yes TWO, works of art by yours truly. First up we have the presentation given by myself and Martin Macdonald at the International Search Summit towards the tail end of last year. [...]

Spotify Playlist: Wake up! Music! Fireworks!

AnnabelH — Fri, 04 Nov 2011 14:44:43 +0000

I’ve abandoned this blog. Too many blogs, not enough Annabel. I’m still writing all about SEO and other such fun things over at State of Search (and now for the SEO Chicks too). I’m also still putting up silly pictures of animals, arty farty stuff and food I’ve devoured over at the Search Panda Tumblr. [...]

Even if it was just all the pick n mix sugar talking, I’ll take them! Big love. KPI’s, Data, Reporting and Communication. Stop Pandering to Clients, Start [...]

Music to cry to & come out the other side – EmoPanda Playlist

AnnabelH — Fri, 17 Dec 2010 16:01:58 +0000

It’s been a while since I last posted. There’s lots that I want to say but I’ve not quite figured out how to say it. I’ll get there at some point, too much to take in and think about over the last few weeks. Too much to be able to put into words just yet. [...]

My Street Fighter Characters

AnnabelH — Wed, 22 Sep 2010 15:53:22 +0000

I casually retweeted something today about the upcoming launch of Street Fighter IV for the iphone (thanks PJC) – if you’re interested, more information here. Before I could say K-O, I’d got myself into a twitter photoshop battle with Sam Loomes which I unceremoniously lost. Not to let Sam’s hard work go to waste, may [...]

Music for In Sickness & In Health – A Spotify Playlist

AnnabelH — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 22:04:45 +0000

I’ve been ill again this week – that’s twice in three weeks and it SUCKS. I do not go quietly into the night shall we say. Unfortunately I can’t really whinge too much about it as if I think about it for more than one second, it’s pretty obvious that it’s all self inflicted. A [...]

BrightonSEO – When is an SEO campaign not an SEO campaign?

AnnabelH — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 12:04:54 +0000

After my lovely ‘search muggle’ pal Chris randomly googled my name last night from the US of A and decided I must be a ‘professional’ due to its appearing across a range of Google searches (mostly with images of pandas associated with it) – I realised I should really at least try to make sure [...]
