Linda Jenkinson’s Summary

Since 2002, I have specialized in writing and editing Search Engine Optimized web content for Internet businesses. I write articles and solid web sales content that keyword optimize your website, improve your standings in the Search Engine indices, and encourage your visitors to fully explore your products and services or those of your affiliated partners.

Here's how it all began—

My educational background is in sales and marketing and over the years I have held various positions in sales from a ground-level employee to top-level management.

In 1974, I learned the true power of compelling sales content in my first copywriting position as Copy Director of KDHL Radio in Faribault, MN.

In the early 80's, as editor of the "Cathedral Bells", the monthly newsletter of the Cathedral of Our Merciful Saviour in Faribault, I began to learn design and layout concepts and how to create a union of imagery and words to precisely focus the reader's attention on the main message in print content.

In 1997, I purchased my first computer and immediately fell in love with digital design. Shyflower's started in 1997 under the name of Paquette Custom Gift and Printing. In 1999, using a nickname suggested by a friend, "PCGP" became Shyflower's and the business expanded into the area of publication.

In 1999, I purchased my first domain and opened Shyflower's Garden Library, a literary ezine that introduced both the web and me to the talents of some wonderful authors and artists. Shyflower's Garden expanded into publishing e-books with the Shyflower Press and, although neither is currently in operation, I remain proud that both the ezine and publishing house were noted by Writer's Market (2000-2001) as one of the best 25 places to get published on the Internet.
