What does it mean to be an SEO Consultant in Philadelphia?
Well to be honest, I am not located in Philadelphia, but rather about 1hr outside of Philadelphia. We do get into the city quite often, but luckily we don’t have to do the commute down the Schuylkill on a daily basis.
As anyone from the greater Philadelphia area knows, the commute into Philly, like an city, can take up to 3 hrs if you are having a bad day. Some mornings if you hit the highway early enough(530am earliest) you can make it into the city in slightly over an hour.
We however, usually drive to Conshohocken and take the train into Philadelphia.
So the primary reason we don’t work in the city, is the commute really bites. Currently we have a 5 to 10 minute commute to the office. Not too bad at all. On nice days, I frequently ride my bike to work.
