Waiting is NOT my Favorite Thing to Do…

Posted by Mike Behnken, MS, CSCS

I’m at j+k fitness studio now waiting for Jae’s client who I’m supposed to train while Jae’s in San Diego for a fitness tradeshow. The session is in the book at 7:30 but I think he thinks it is at 8:00 so I’ll just wait it out. While I’m waiting it out, I figured out why not check everything out online. He just got here, Mission St. is under construction and he couldn’t find parking. I WILL finish this post after the training Session, and talk about MSN.

——————————————————————————————————————

We had a good training session.  I was going to talk about MSN and when someone types “personal trainer san francisco” in the search, I’m either number 1-3 in the organic search results.  My website FitSF.com turns up.  In yahoo and google, I’m way down in the Search results.  I guess I’m just unlucky because MSN search gets only 4% of search engine traffic whereas google gets around 65% .

My site is different from most of the personal trainer sites in San Francisco.  I don’t think many sites for personal trainers are actually created and edited by the trainers themselves.  I even add a question and response every single day, which I would guess would look good for a search engine as well as please my visitors.

I did another training session today which I filmed some exercises for the GTS which is like the total gym which is advertised all over tv with one of my idols CHUCK NORRIS!  My Canon HG10 Camcorder takes pretty good videos even in not the brightest environments.  Today I finally flipped the screen so I can see if me and my client are in the picture.

So far I’ve probably got around 50 exercises on HD video.  I have a long way to go before I start working on AskTheTrainer.com but when the day comes it will be fun.  Today I spent a majority of my time on registering my name:  AskTheTrainer on various social bookmarking sites.  I didn’t even get a chance to goto the gym and exercise.  I had a big day exercising (and bike wreck) yesterday.
