What 2012 Taught Me about Search
2012 has arguably been a more eventful year for Google than the past few years combined. I should know – I write about this stuff. All year long, I read more news about the search giant than my brain could reasonably handle. Needless to say, I was never short on good material. However, I don’t just write about this stuff – I do it. I’m a webmaster of multiple domains and I follow the SEO scene closely, so I voraciously consumed every bit of search news I could get my hands on. After all, I needed material, but I wanted to learn for my own sites, too. And boy did I learn. Google’s morphed into a completely different animal than it was just one year prior.

5 Things Your Press Releases Should Be Doing — A SPN Exclusive Article
Submitting press releases has become the new “in” thing for internet marketers. Sure, press releases are a great way to gain exposure and build quality backlinks for your website. However, this entire strategy is based on the assumption that you’re publishing the right kinds of press releases. If you’re dealing with quality press releases, they should be doing these 5 things: 1. Providing Information – Not a Sales Pitch This is the single biggest reason that press releases wind up in the garbage! By definition, a press release’s job is to inform the media of something new, not to sound like an infomercial. When I was in the news biz, we had an all-too-commonly used phrase when we received press releases like this – “send ‘em a rate card.” After all, what you’re really doing by publishing that salesy press release is asking for free exposure on their station, on their website, or in their newspaper. Instead, you’d be better off asking for a rate card – or, the card that TV stations and newspapers use to determine advertising rates. From an internet marketing perspective, many of the good press release distribution websites will not accept your release if it sounds like a sales pitch.
7 Dangerous Lies Your SEO Content Writer is Telling You – A SEO-News Exclusive Article
Now that we’re living in a world where Pandas are something to be feared and relevant links are worth their weight in gold, there is an even bigger focus on quality SEO content writing. The only problem? Far too many of the content writers out there can’t actually write! As a result, they prey on people like you – hoping you’ll believe their promises and never notice that they don’t actually have any talent. Sadly, the odds are high that you’ve been lied to by an SEO content writer. Heck, you may have been told several lies! There are some real doozies being told out there, but these 7 are the most common – and they’re also the most damaging to your business: 1. “I don’t outsource any of my work.” This is a classic example of the ol’ “bait and switch.” Lots of SEO content writers promise that they (or a trusted associate) personally handle all of the writing. Then, they outsource the work to the far-reaches of the globe – and you wind up being the poor sap that gets stuck with content that’s not even remotely close to what you were expecting
5 Common SEO Myths Explained
SEO, which stands for search engine optimization, can be difficult to understand if you are not familiar with it. Unfortunately many things you read about SEO on the internet are not always true. There are a lot of myths and misconceptions floating around the net and they can sometimes be hard to confirm or debunk because of the ever changing techniques and the complexities of the search engines. Some of the most common SEO myths are listed below and with it, the information to expose the truth so you can concentrate on real SEO methods to improve your site rankings and increase your traffic.
Why Both Weight Loss and Google Rankings are Limited Goals
My husband and I were talking the other night about one of his pet peeves: When people start exercising and eating healthier, they usually measure their success by how much weight they’ve lost (or not) as shown to them by their trusty scale. It annoys him because, while losing weight is one sign that you’re doing things right, after a certain point, it can only tell you so much. It reminded me of my own pet peeve: how people usually measure the success of their SEO work by checking how well their site ranks in the search engines. Yet, similar to weight loss being a poor main goal for your health and fitness regime, where your pages rank for specific keyword phrases is also a poor main goal. Healthier Body – Healthier Website Your principal goal when eating in moderation and exercising regularly should be to become healthier overall, and ultimately to live a longer and more satisfying life.
How to Choose a Reputable SEO Company
The two most important elements that qualify companies to promote themselves as SEO experts are competence and professionalism. And the way you find out if a company is competent and professional, as well as legitimate, is to do your due diligence and check their credentials thoroughly, by exercising good old common sense and following these steps: 1. Verify Their Contact Information If the company provides a street address, Google it to see if it’s a real address. If they provide a telephone number, call the number to see if it’s answered by the company or an answering service. If they don’t provide a telephone number, walk away. SEO is serious business
5 Myths About Creating Video Content
Video is arguably the most powerful way to send your message across to an audience, yet it is surprising that such a small percentage of people use it both for their web content and marketing materials. This is perhaps due to a number of misconceptions that people have when it comes to creating video content, which are clarified below: 1. You Need To Spend A Lot: You may have seen or at least heard about companies that will produce your video for you, but charge an absolute fortune to do it (well, what the average person would consider a fortune). It’s not a necessity to get it professionally done – just take a look at the majority of videos on YouTube. Use your friend’s camera, or just record straight into the computer with a webcam. 2. It Needs To Be High Quality: The content of your video is what matters most – as long as this is helpful to somebody then there’s no reason it should look like it cost a million dollars. Don’t worry so much about your poor acting ability (or your friend’s poor acting ability), or whether the picture is too grainy – as long as the sound is okay then just about everything else is pretty trivial
