Just thought I would chime in with some things that may help. I'm the president of Netconcepts. I'm also one of the owners. First off, here are some recent articles that should help establish the company's notability:

• http://news.com.com/Newspapers+search+for+Web+headline+magic/2100-1038_3-6155739.html
• http://news.com.com/2100-1025_3-6155618.html
• http://directmag.com/searchline/2-06-07-Long-tail/

I can dig for more (just ask if you want more), but some more press mentions can be found on our website at http://www.netconcepts.com/tag/press

I don't know why the information about me having daughters and moving to New Zealand is pertinent to this article about a company? Can that be removed? Also wondering why I'm the only person mentioned, when we have over 50 staff? Granted, it's my picture on the company's home page, but we have some very talented folks working here, and they aren't invisible -- they have done media interviews, spoken at major conferences, contributed to open source, won awards, written columns and articles, etc.

Can the article reflect that we're a U.S. company -- headquartered in Wisconsin, with around 20 staff in North America, including some of the owners and key executives?

Finally, I don't know that I'd characterize Netconcepts as an "Internet marketing company"; we're a web agency -- encompassing search engine optimization, e-commerce, web development, online marketing... We started as a web development company in 1995.

I appreciate having an article written about us (thanks Nzgabriel), so don't think I'm not grateful for the work and research put into this article. It's a great start and I hope it survives the AfD process.

Is there any more info I can furnish to improve this article? Stephanspencer 00:23, 22 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
