Enquiro: A Decade of Search Marketing Posts: Part I

Wow, can you believe that ten years have passed since the turn of the millenium? For those of us in the Western world, and perhaps the entire world, the past ten years have produced a world that is more frightening and complicated than it has ever been before. We have experienced:

Heinous acts of terrorism including September, 11, 2001
Increased natural disasters such as the Indian Ocean Tsunami in 2004 and Hurricane Katrina in 2005
Genetic advances never experienced before
Soaring oil prices
The Boston Red Sox winning their first Word Series title since 1918 (in 2004)
The phenomenon of blogging and micro-blogging (Twitter anyone)
Monster bailouts and bankruptcies
The inauguration of the first African American President of the United States
The death of the King of Pop with the passing of Michael Jackson in 2009

Newsweek has some cool images from the past decade that can be viewed here:

Then there is the online world. The Internet has transcended quickly and Search has allowed us access to information that we would have not been able to access otherwise. Like the real world, the Search Industry has transformed drastically over the past decade. Enquiro has been around for the entire decade and we have posted thousands of search related and marketing articles over the past decade.

Through various environments, blogs and websites, Enquiro has been on top of the latest in the Search industry since the start of the decade (and even prior to 200) and we wanted to share the past decade in the Search Industry with a look at 200 (yes I said two hundred) of our memorable posts from the past decade. This is but a sample of how the industry has transformed during this time. For thise of us who have been in the industry during the past ten years, the only constant we have experienced is change.

Some of the posts have been modified from their original version. We apologize for any formatting errors or omisions. Take note of the date of some of the posts and thik back about how different things are in the world of Search as we head into the next decade.
