Organic Search
Raising Your Score

Hamlet Batista, president and CEO of NEMedia, wants to change your content. He wants to change it so much that he can't wait to get his search team cracking on it. It's his bread and butter.

He wants to respect your content - the carefully crafted articles, summaries and reviews you painstakingly labor over. "You have to write the content for the user," he says. "If they don't like it, they are going to leave."
