Buy a Pixel For Charity

Yes the Buy Advertising on a Pixel Page has been done before. But I would like to do something that no one has done before in this industry. I am putting up this Pixel Page to collect donations.

As some of you know I lost my younger brother about 4 years ago, he died of complications from a lung transplant after suffering for many years with Cystic Fibrosis. In his honor and the hundreds of young adults I know who will not live past their 20’s I want to try to do something special for them.

If you can find it in your heart to donate $20 for a 10x10 pixel, these kids would greatly appreciate it. In fact I may be able to get my employeer and a few others to match a certain amount of the donation.

You may have heard of children with multiple sclerosis, cancer and many other un-bearable diseases. Trust me you have not seen anything more painful than CF. Imagine being born with terminal Emphysema and then unable to digest normal food.

Please spread or Digg this article.

I have been in the search industry since the late 90’s, no not 10-20 years. My career started early in the search Day’s at Inktomi, where I supported large search portals. For example, MSN, AOL, iWon, Hotbot, CNet too name a few. After Inktomi I became a freelance consultant. I consulted for a few of the Top SEO’s around 2002 time frame; obviously the market has changed since then. After consulting I joined a small SEO firm called SEO Inc as the CTO. At SEO Inc. I successfully optimized some of the largest clients including IGN, Sony, VEGAS.com, Beaches and Sandals Resorts to name a few. Even though SEO Inc was a ton of fun, I still wanted the ultimate SEO challenge. I moved on as the global head of SEO for Shopping.com an eBay company. This challenge was an interesting one, how do I optimize a site with 50 million products? Every month I helped the business grow by leaps and bounds. I am now consulting for mostly enterprise e-commerce clients. Yes there is more too me than this profile shows, but you will just have to ask.
