Kick ass monkey and band
I have added the portfolio section, with a little help from an angry, kick ass red monkey. There will be more cool projects being added to that page soon, stay tune. One question that prospective clients and fellow freelancers kept asking me is why do I have to keep some of these projects private (MIA in portfolio). Well the main reason is SEO. When you work with a startup company, the company name will most likely does not even exist in the search engine index because there’s no content other than a splash page on their domain. If you put these clients into your portfolio before they even launch the product, chances are your name will appear higher in the search rankings when the buzz starts to kick in. Which is good for you, but bad for them. And trust me, you dont want bad, angry clients. I’d learned that the hard way so hopefully this will serve as your tip of the day. :)
Did I ever tell you guys how much I love Mayday? I have a lot of respect for this band for many good reasons, but mostly for crunching out songs that are just pure fun to listen to. No one really writes real stuff in their songs anymore. I hope they will stick out for a while. And do you know they are the best selling artist in Taiwan’s entertainment history? Me neither. I thought that honor would’ve easily gone to Jay Chow. Maybe I was wrong.
Anyway, here is ’salty fish’ (direct translation, of course).
