The One Thing You Should Do Right Now to Help Your SEO

January 26th, 2012

1. Open your browser. www. vs. non-www.adclub.org

2. Type in www.[yourdomain].com. After it loads, does the web address stay on www.[yourdomain].com?

New Kid on the Social Media Block - How to Generate Brand Awareness and Valuable Links using Pinterest

December 13th, 2011

Can you smell the SEO potential yet? The brilliance of Pinterest is that it combines some of the most compelling features of social media in general: visually stimulating content and the opportunity to share your ideas, interests and inspiration.

Twitter, a popular microblogging service and social media platform, can be an extremely valuable asset when conducting your internet marketing campaign.

It’s pretty simple: marketing on the Internet is, on one level, about dominating as much real estate on page 1 of Google as possible.

The typical places to dominate are the left side of the page (natural or organic search results) and the right side of the page (paid search results). However, with the abundance of online directories aggressively marketing themselves, the ability to own more of page 1 of Google for a certain key phrase is more and more attainable.
