We welcomed a new addition on 6/11/2011. Marion Elizabeth Wilson was born at 2:58 am, weighing 9 lbs 11 oz. To answer some common follow-up questions: Yes, it was a natural birth (no c-section) and No, I did not have gestational diabetes. She was just a big girl who definitely enjoyed her Jamms frozen yogurt and McDonald's McFlurrys. :) http://www.wilsonmediaconsulting.com/wilson-media-welcomes-new-addition/

Keep your politics to yourself! A short post about the importance of keeping politics out of small businesses, even with small things like an email signature.

Stay tuned as we progress our own personal SEO journey while trying to get our website to page 1 for "North Idaho Web Design." http://www.wilsonmediaconsulting.com/north-idaho-search-engine-optimization-wilson-media/
