Purple Trout


So, I have been interning at this SEO Internet Company called Purple Trout. Before I started I had not one clue what SEO was and for those out there who aren't in the know SEO means Search Engine Optimization. In non computer terms it means to get more traffic or people to view a certain webpage. The company is really cool and I have learned soooo much since I started! I never knew about black hat tricks to get Google to give a better rating (which they dont do, of course)! Who would have thunk you can HIDE things that the human eye can't see but a computer can read?? It's crazy. Everyone at PT have been really nice and seem eager to help the interns out which is really nice. I know most of you are thinking umm Erin haven't you been an intern like 10000 times...well yes I have but I decided it's better for me to be doing something and learning than looking endlessly for a job that's not out there!! What can I tell you about PT?? The president is really into fishing (the name purple trout)so if you see any cool fish decor let a sister know! The building is super nice. It's located in Newport by the Levee which is good and bad for me. Good - near Starbucks, Brio, Dewey's Bad - near Starbucks, Brio, Dewey's!!! Kate you feel me?? Hopefully I'll learn a bunch and expand my BRAIN and move on to the next chapter in my life!!
