Michael pitches right in and adds his expertise to help us find the most efficient way to accomplish our goals. His knowledge of Wordpress -and the options out there to enhance it -made a huge difference in how we approached the project and we completed it on time and budget. I'm happy to recommend him, he's a pleasure to work with!"

Michael Martine puts the 'remarkable' into blogging in so many ways. As a PR person who is new to the blogosphere with a personal venture, I knew a ton about marketing, writing, editing, business & research, but was really restrained by technical hurdles.
So many of the new Internet gifts are 'free' to use, but have zero technical support, and for a low-tech person, it's extremely time-consuming and frustrating to search FAQs & forums without ever getting to the right answer. Michael was an amazing, 'remarkable (!)' short-cut, not only making new tools & resources available, but explaining in a very simple way, how I could start to drive these things as well.
He has a keen business sense, and has combined valuable consulting, excellent communication skills, and a very approachable personality, to create a fantastic go-to option for anyone looking to create or extend their web business.

When I switched my blog over from Wordpress.com to an independent hosting service, I lost 100% of my hard-earned organic search traffic. I had been told by experts (at my day job) that re-directing was impossible. I believed them until I found Michael.
He gave me the key to the Wordpress re-direct gate and in less than an hour all of my old search engine traffic was pointing directly to my new blog. He was such a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him.

"Michael knows blogging, always provides insightful feedback and suggestions.
A critical thinker with his own original thoughts. Michael does not indulge in regurgitated, recycled, or reused tired strategies. Fresh, insightful, and caring."
~ Greg Balanko-Dickson, Marketing Safari
"I hired Michael as a consultant, and I have conversed with Michael on several occasions, read his work, and attended several of his gatherings. He is a fantastic person and has a brilliant mind for business. It doesn't matter whether I ask him a basic blogging question, or have a complex marketing question, Michael offers well thought out solutions and creative ideas.
"Each tip or hint he supplied has not only solved the issue, but has more than exceeded my expectations. In addition to all of this, he is a friendly and great person to work with or just have a friendly chat. I would not hesitate for a second to hire him for anything blogging, marketing, or business related. I am already looking forward to future dealings."
~Angie Haggstrom, Freedom Freelance
I particularly appreciated Michael's thoughts on my content. He believes I should showcase my consulting and design work by writing up some case studies of projects I've worked on. I think this is a great idea, and it's good to hear it from someone else.

"If you wish your blog was better, you need to talk to Michael. I thought I was experienced enough that if there was an answer, I knew it. After talking to Michael I realized that there were some simple, important things I'd missed. After only a few consulting sessions I noticed these changes made a real, positive impact on how I attract clients."

"The blog posts bring more traffic as time goes on with longer tail KWs but all considered - before 55K uniques a month and now 70K but what is more important to me is the number of people asking questions and visiting the forum - this has more than doubled."
