    I know this is going to sound generic, but what a great blog post this is! Social media marketing is clutch and there is some really good info here. I especially loved the piece on content creation for the average person. Great stuff.

    At this point, the entire golf industry needs as much marketing help as it can get. I’m a golf instructor in Orlando, and I’ll be the first to admit that the industry does a poor job of marketing the sport to bring in new people. Most courses still operate as they did 30 years ago, totally oblivious to the seismic changes taking place, courtesy of the internet. So thanks for what you are doing.

    I’ll be sure to bookmark this page as it is a great list of resources. There is so much garbage out there when it comes to building links that you don’t know what to believe anymore.

    Having a list of link building resources like this from someone that has tested them is a good find.
