Dr. Pete Quotes
Listen to Dr. Pete deliver a crash course in international SERP’s, content creation tips and the art of infographics:
“The nicest thing I hear about MozCast is when people just basically say, ‘Thank you for letting me know I’m not crazy’ and that’s really gratifying.” (6:50)
“I don’t think [Google] know. They know that’s what we need. We need small screens, we need voice. How do you monetize a voice answer if there’s no SERP? They don’t know and they have to figure that out.” (14:31)
“You can’t do everything for Google and complain about Google, and then build a site that doesn’t sell a product and doesn’t make money. That’s self-defeating.” (16:33)
