Thank you 02. Surprising Numbers 03. Tip Of The Week --------------------------------------------------------------------- *01 Thank You Various recent events going on in my life have caused me to reflect on my time with The Internet 800 Directory. Unlike Scrooge, my journey down memory lane was not guided by spirits, but by the wonderment of "Has it really been that long?". We started the 800 Directory back in 1995 and are now working on our tenth year. Not one day of this time would have been possible without the support of many individuals that have encouraged and aided us over the years. To all of you that have brought a positive impact to our company, please except my humble thanks. It's my hope that if your reading this, you have a safe a and happy holiday season.

The report showed high placement on our core words, usually in the top ten. This high placement in the search engines was not surprising, as we have always enjoy good placement because of our popularity and number of outside links. But this report also showed the number of times each of the key words or phases taken from the main page were searched for in the seven main search engines. According to this report, our name "Internet 800 Directory" was searched for 115 million times. It was surprising to me to find that 115 million searches were looking for "Internet 800 Directory" by name. This much name recognition can only help the companies that advertise in our data and I was very pleased to see it.

Please don't drink and drive, no amount of fun is worth that risk. +Get sufficient sleep - travel, parties, family, shopping and extra holiday activates can take a real toll on your health. Besides everything is more fun when you're not cranky. +Don't Stress- the holidays can be filled with pressure (mostly self created), try to relax. If you have kids, follow their lead and have fun.
