Levelling the intagible playing field of professional services procurement (Beyond Referrals Profile)
“I stated that the worst thing a purchasing person can do when using an RFP to buy professional services is to exclude a project budget. Immediately, a rebuttal was offered, “But if I give them the budget,” stated the attendee, “they are all just going to come in at that budget.” He was right.

Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI): What it is, how it works and what it means
When you query a search engine that uses LSI, the search engine examines similarity values calculated for every content word. LSI does not require an exact match to the query phrase to find relevant documents. What this means for the search engine optimization (SEO) specialist and anyone with a website who wants high visibility in the search engines is that every word on your web page is important, not just the keyphrase(s). It is the right combination of all the words in your content that really matters here. What you do with your keyphrase(s) is still important but now you must go beyond that . . . way beyond that. You’ve got to have the right context to support your keyphrase(s).
