Last week I had a discussion with my SEO team lead about one of the most controversial things in SEO business—Ah, the page-rank. I still remember the time when I had been interviewed by few SEO companies, “So how soon can you get me a Google page-rank of 1”, was the question raised with a sense of pride by one of the managers. I didn’t care to tell him that it works the other way (higher the number the better), I instead told him I cannot promise and that such things should not be on top of the “agenda” when working for a client

New travel, new countries, and the Pentalog strategy this time will take us to India… Just about a year ago we were preparing Fédéric and Virginie’s fist trip to Vietnam , after a thorough study of several destinations that could receive the next new branch or subsidiary of the group, and help complete Pentalog’s offshore development strategy and contribute also to the company’s growth… We had launched a few weeks before a similar call on this blog to connect with people in Vietnam and China. Now, a year later, Pentalog Vietnam is our first subsidiary in Asia, which already has 25 employees! In the continuity of development plans established in 2008, Frédéric is now preparing to spend some time in India, to study more precisely the opportunities presented by this huge country, with its pool of unique IT skills.
