Go figure! Here’s the linkie - http://www.networkedblogs.com/topic/Film/Have no idea how they decide on these things but I guess I’ve made it to Networked Blogs’ (part of Facebook) Top 50 Film Blogs.
Defining a Multi-Topical Blog
Film might not be the focus of most of my posts but when I weighed the options: Do I write a political blog? No, not really. All the real-deal political writers wouldn’t think so, anyway. Politiku is politics, yes, but fancified. And I only post my Politiku on Huffington now anyway, for SEO purposes.
And, yes, I write a lot about science. I’m not a scientist, though. Nor am I a Search Engine Optimizer, though I write about Search Engine Optimization.
Embracing Hot Topics
Boring as this may be, I simply write about about whatever inspires me. New hot topics like SEO, yeah, I’m into it. Into it in so far as I’ve been doing it for almost a year now and am just starting to embrace this particular “hot topic” as a new direction in which to take my freelance writing. What prompted me to embrace it was not the “hotness,” so much as it was the pragmatic simplicity of gaining a skill that there is an abundance of demand for. Well, okay, that is “hotness” maybe?
Film vs Optimized Content
Unlike film –in which, content is an end in and of itself– the SEO stuff I write about creates content based on trending terms. In other words, content is determined by the swarm rather than from within.
Thank you, Networked Blogs
So, thank you, Networked Blogs, for putting my ‘Film Blog’ in your top 50. Glad to hear you like what I have to say about film. Back to trying to find an agent to represent my unsold screenplays and back to trying to find new clients while seeking out a real job to get me by. And yes, perhaps a real job that would involve writing in some capacity but I’ll take a permanent position with health insurance over that, any day. In other words, if you –yes, you the reader– need someone to create Search Engine Optimized, keyword rich content, even better!

Hey Susanna, congratulations! I was just in NYC last week for the American Academy of Poets Forum and thought of you. Take care.
That’s awesome Irene. I so miss all those seasonal poetry events in NYC. Guess you’d already noticed but Huffpo choose your Obama Nobel Peace Prize Politiku as the default text below the title. Everytime it comes up in the search now its your words ringing true!
