I sent some questions to Jared Field, PPC specialist at high street fashion retailer, REISS.

It’s an interesting time for the retailer, with increased numbers of stores and successful expansion into the USA.

Here’s what Jared had to say about life on the PPC shop floor.

It's pleasing to have so many uppercase letters in a headline.

Does your online form look like something from the Department of Motor Vehicles?

I’ve spent almost 15 years of my life helping companies to get their visitors to fill out and submit forms online. Forms to request information, to attend events, to sign up for a service, to complete an order, all sorts of forms.

The conflict is clearPi Datametrics@jonearnshaw@PiDatametrics

Stolen copy conclusion● Content thieves can win● It’s not about links● Google’s way of dealing with duplicate content

is inconsistent● A content thief can come along and disrupt one

site and beat another● Having duplicate content across multiple sites

confuses Google. If you offer product content to a reseller, make sure it is unique
