As our lives grow more and more complicated with day to day tasks and everything gets more technical, our language becomes shorter with ‘text talk’ and acronyms scattering our communications.

To new comers in the world of ‘Digital Media’ seems like there is a strange, foreign or even alien language that can take some getting used to.

Many a time at the beginning of my journey I often wondered not only what was being said to me but what I had to actually say in reply! Knowing my PPC jobs from my SEO jobs and my ROI from my CPM.

I decided the only way to get a real understanding was to BYO (bring your own) list from which I work to. It’s ever growing, ever changing but a tool I now can't live without.

So, FYI I have included some of it below for you to use, share and update. I have even created my own for the new mix so social media and SEO, SO-EO.

Get in touch at "Mind Over Media" if there are any others that are NTK (Need to know) or comment bellow.
