This past Sunday, which was a lazy afternoon, I went do to Lower Manhattan in New York and stood at intersection of Broad and Wall Streets, the location of the mecca of capitalism and arguably the business pulse of the world-the New York Stock Exchange. Just across from this New York business icon, is Federal Hall, which was one of the first meeting places for the seat of government in the United States and which is maintained by the US Dept of the Interior.
The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is one of the backbones of New York business and boasts the Dow Jones Industrial Average, that is, the top companies in the NYSE, whose daily stock movement is a barometer of how stocks may trade for a particular day or session. There is a saying that “when New York City sneezes, the rest of the country catches pneumonia”, which is true as was shown immediately after the events on 9/11. New York receives a large portion of its tax payments from businesses on Wall Street, the employees who work there, eat there and play there, the bonuses and the capital gains taxes. Visiting the New York Stock Exchange, as a tourist or travel destination and followed up by a visit to Federal Hall is a cool way to spend a weekday, especially if you are first time visitor to New York City and would like to see New York business in action.
Additionally, New York is a capital of small business as well and for more information on how to form a small business, you may visit the website of www.businessknowhow.com which features New York business start up information as well as information for all states in the US. They provide help with labor law posters, wage and tax information and OSHA information as well. Those who would like to visit this mainstay location of New York business can take the J train to the last stop, which is Broad St but only Monday thru Friday. On weekends, the J train terminates at Brooklyn Bridge, where you may catch the 4 train to Wall Street and walk a block to Broad and Wall Streets.
This a part of the continuing discussion of New York SEO and how using well known location, in this case an icon of New York business and with search engine optimization and marketing being discussed while physically being at these locations and on video, enhances the SEO process through the use of video optimization.
Here is video of Dallas Plummer talking about New York business outside the New York Stock Exchange and directly across from Federal Hall in Lower Manhattan. One note: In the video, I state that the Federal Reserve bank is a few blocks in the direction towards Water Street. It is actually in the opposite direction up and 2 blocks away, across from Chase Manhattan Plaza.
I sauntered down to New York Penn Station one day because it is one of the busiest rail travel hubs in the country, with Amtrak, the LIRR and NJ Transit operating there. It is also a landmark and a tourist and as well as travel destination. Amtrak has in its infinite wisdom instituted a “quiet car” on most of its trains, that is, if you sit in this car, you cannot have cell phone conversations, music or even loud or disturbing conversations with your fellow passengers. I applaud Amtrak for this as it is new, customer friendly and it just makes sense.
I continually speak about search engine optimization in New York or New York SEO for short by using video to talk about New York City tourist or landmarks and using this as your office space while having a discussion about New York SEO and search engine marketing. The discussion has been amped or ramped up to include New York City tourist and travel information and because Amtrak has this “quiet car” feature, I recommend going to amtrak.com and signing up for their guest rewards programs, which have some great deals. Watch for the next New York SEO and travel video of Dallas Plummer coming soon.

Dallas Plummer talks about how using video at major tourist and visitor locations such as the Brooklyn Promenade, increases visitors to your website and increases its popularity. The Brooklyn Promenade is a well know lovers lane that gives breath taking views of the Statue of Liberty, New York Harbor, Brooklyn Bridge, South Street Seaport and the Brooklyn Queens Expressway. There are also views of the Manhattan Bridge, Staten Island Ferry terminal, Ellis Island and Governors Island.

New York SEO also includes making a subject such as the Brooklyn Promenade relevant to the seo discussion as the subject matter is being discusses at that location. SEO is a worldwide undertaking but by having the discussion at a New York location, this search engine optimization discussion becomes a geo-targeted phrase as it is in NY, hence, the phrase, New York SEO. You may watch the New York SEO video below for more information on seo, sem and pay per click in NYC.
In our continuing discussion about New York City landmarks, we took a stroll to the “last bastion of civilization in New York City” which is Central Park. On any given day, you can find something to do in Central Park be it bird watching, people watching, horse watching or just sitting down and having a picnic. Central Park boasts some of the best trails for bike riding, jogging and leisurely hiking. One of the unknown gems of Central Park is that there is a boat house, where you can rent a row boat for hours and row around the lake in Central Park.
If you simply walk in and around the park, you can find museums such as the Museum of Natural History, Metropolitan Museum of Art, grab a hot pretzel, hot dog or throw a blanket and take a nap. Most major subway lines and buses go near or stop right at Central Park on the east and west side of Manhattan. Oh, for those of you who don’t know what dictates or separates the east side from the west side of Manhattan–it is 5th Avenue. We shot this video of Dallas Plummer on 6th Avenue or Avenue of the Americas near Carnegie Hall and the Plaza Hotel. To find out a wealth of information about Central Park in New York, visit the website, www.centralparknyc.org Using Central Park as his office, Dallas Plummer discusses using landmark locations in and around a major urban area and making the site relevant to his discussion, which in this case is search engine optimization, video optimization and search engine marketing.
This discussion on speak in generalized terms about SEO and SEM and video optimization is not the save-all for SEO but is simply another tool in the arsenal of search engine and digital marketing.

Well, my name is Dallas and I go to Dallas BBQs from time to time, so what better way to get some geographical search engine optimization by linking my name to the like name of a restaurant in New York City and accomplish all of this by doing some video on it. Standing in front of the Dallas BBQs on 23rd Street and 8th Avenue, I describe a little about the restaurant and mention keywords such as New York barbeque, New York restaurant and New York bars. The key point here is relevance as 1. I am Dallas Plummer 2. I am standing in front of Dallas BBQs on 23rd and 8th Avenue and 3.

While walking in New York City on a Saturday afternoon, we decided to shoot some video in and around the midtown area. We went to the United Nations, which many of us haven’t visited since we were about 10 or 11 years old or when we went on our last class field trip.
The discussion Dallas Plummer of www.seoposse.com, www.grimvale.blogspot.com and www.splaxon.com had was about search engine optimization and having this or any discussion at these and other popular landmarks and making it relevant. The discussion focused on travelling around with a camera on your person at all time to provide your own content and where ever it is that you are, you can then incorporate said content into your website, web property or online portal and make it relevant to your website and the search engines will not treat it as spam, simply because the content is relevant to the message created.
