SEO & Christian Rap Fusion



This video is of a Christian rapper (Poetic Prophet) who is discussing the importance of SEO for Christian rappers. The video is a promotional tool and establishes the "SEO Rapper" Charles Lewis as an expert in the SEO field. Charles works for a company called Poplabs, an online marketing firm. Even though the song seems humorous there is some very factual information being mentioned in the song. He discussed the importance of branding, site design, having a call to action, and creating an easy to use interface. He suggested that users should use Xml, Css, describe the doc types, check all browsers, title everything including pictures and content. He also discussed some things to avoid such as using graphics in moderation, staying away from incorrect color combinations, no tables, no background colors, no bold, and not to use italics.

I believe that SEO is very important in the Christian Hip Hop industry because there are so many artists and to stand out there needs to be a way where people can find them easily. SEO does exactly that, so I agree with Charles that if an artist wants to build their following they need to have all their websites and content online optimized correctly for search engines.

  1. Now that's an interesting way to talk about SEO. It's clever... the rap is catchy... and the fact that it provides good information makes it useful stuff. You can remember the basic details by the lyrics, which could be a great help when you're a beginner in website-making.

  2. And here I thought I've seen everything. I guess life's still full of surprises, and this is one of those surprises. I doubt there will be other SEO rappers aside from him.
