Since its conception, the world wide web, simply referred to today as the Internet, has taken the world by storm. From creating new opportunities for global commerce to staying in 24/7 contact with friends and family, the Internet has forever changed how we live our lives.

Just as the Internet has and continues to do as time passes, social media has made our world shrink. Websites like GeoCities, MySpace, Twitter, Facebook, Google+ LinkedIn, Vine, and Instagram have opened doors for online networking and business that weren’t there before. Citizens from countries miles apart are instantly able to share various bits of information with one another via this miracle we call the internet.

Today I received a $50 domain inquiry for a top 3 word .com.

I’ll take a few moments to share a few thoughts for domain buyers and sellers.

I’ve received a few offers on this same domain over the last year, so I knew that I was not going to rollover and blindly accept this offer without doing a little research.

Just based on the previous domain inquiries and offers, the lowest price I was willing to accept was $25K.

As I do with every domain and right from the start, I also checked to see if the other domain extensions where registered, available, or developed.

And to my surprise and advantage as a seller, all other domain extensions were registered and a few had fully developed websites belonging to thriving businesses.

So I did what anyone should do, which is performing a few business searches to be sure that those businesses were legit.

I recently was invited to an Entrepreneur Summit sessions held in Round Rock, Texas by a close friend and business partner.

I always find it an intriguing challenge to hear from business owners looking for ways to launch, sustain and grow their businesses.

Having had a chance to address a small group of entrepreneurs about how to grow their businesses as it relates to SEO and domain names, at the table was a photographer, baker, imports/exports operator, and an online retailer.

I didn’t learn much about the online retailer as he wasn’t too forthcoming with his business or business model.

However, I thoroughly enjoyed answering internet marketing and business strategy questions about the photographer, baker and imports/exports operator.

We talked about and discussed many aspects of launching, sustaining and growing their businesses. I’ll attempt to highlight some of the questions asked and addressed in our short time together.

If you haven’t heard or read somewhere across the Internet in recent weeks, Google is stepping into the domain space as a registrar, and full force too!

Personally, I’m not sure what this all means for the Internet in general other than saying that Google has now put 1And1.com, GoDaddy, Register.com, Web.com, Network Solutions and the likes clearly in the crosshairs of their radar.

In addition to forcing their way into domains, Google has also partnered with service providers to offer unique drag-and-drop, no coding required, website creation platform via Wix, Weebly and Shopify.

These partnerships are huge because now customers are able to streamline finding and buying a domain, and easily developing and hosting their website with best-in-class intuitive tools.

For GoDaddy, this has to be the worst timing due to their recent IPO announcement. Not only that, but Google once was a domain partner that referred their customers to GoDaddy and Enom for domain purchases. Well, no more!

The more and more I think about Google Domains, which is currently in an invite-only beta mode, and it’s impact on domain names and search in general, things could very well be changing for domain and search industries, and in big ways.

So, what does this all mean?

It’s the silver bullet to SEO: Automation.

Every small business owner would love for SEO to plan, implement, execute, measure and sustain itself automatically.

However, the truth and reality is that it doesn’t. The End.

Okay, there is more to it that just stating the obvious and calling it a day.

This doesn’t mean that certain aspects of SEO cannot be automated.

In fact, there are many aspects of SEO that can be automated.

But the wisdom in automating SEO is knowing what to automate and how to go about automation.

Blinded by future rankings and the expected tsunami of traffic to be receive moments after signing their SEO agreement, business owners fall prey to paying large sums of money for services that either can’t be rendered or are rendered and leave their website severely penalized or de-indexed by search engines.

Too many times, business owners and businesses fall victim to the ole’ foolproof SEO automatic packages that tout overnight page one rankings.

Instead of taking the time to invest in SEO for the long haul, most business owners opt for the silver bullet approach.

Now, I can’t stop you or any other business owner in search of SEO strategies and services from falling prey to automating SEO.

While you can automate some of your SEO actions, there are some SEO actions that you should never automate.
