Jennifer Laylock of SearchEngineGuide.com wrote a nice post today about Targeting Conversions and Traffic with Long Tail Writing.

She gives a great example of how a local wedding cake company in “podunk” can get a little creative, while much more relevant, with their copy to increase traffic.

Our skilled cake designers spend time working with each bride to create the wedding cake of her dreams. We have existing relationships with banquet halls in Hubbard, Brookfield, Youngstown, Girard and Austintown.

It’s funny to think that most people are racing for the long-tail now and didn’t start with it from the beginning.

Dead on again Jennifer!

You really ought to know this. The human body is a machine that is full of wonder.

This collection of human body facts will leave you wondering why in the heck we were designed the way we were.

I’ve highlighted the ones that stood out for me…

1. Scientists say the higher your I.Q., the more you dream.
2. The largest cell in the human body is the female egg, and the smallest is the male sperm.
3. You use 200 muscles to take one step.
4. The average woman is 5 inches shorter than the average man.
5. Your big toes have two bones each while the rest have three.
6. A pair of human feet contains 250,000 sweat glands
7. A full bladder is roughly the size of a soft ball.
8. The acid in your stomach is strong enough to dissolve razor blades.
9. The human brain cell can hold 5 times as much information as the Encyclopedia Britannica.
10. It takes the food seven seconds to get from your mouth to your stomach.
11. The average human dream lasts 2-3 seconds.
12. Men without hair on their chests are more likely to get cirrhosis of the liver than men with hair.
13. At the moment of conception, you spent about half an hour as a single cell.
14. There are about one trillion bacteria on each of your feet.
15. Your body gives off enough heat in 30 minutes to bring half a gallon of water to a boil.
16. The enamel in your teeth is the hardest substance in your body.
17. Your teeth start growing 6 months before you are born
18. When you are looking at someone you love, your pupils dilate, and they do the same when you are looking at someone you hate.
19. Your thumb is the same length as your nose.

At this very moment I know full well you are putting this last fact to the test…now remove your thumb from your nose and pass this on to the friends you think might be interested in comparing their thumbs to their noses as well.
