Ready to roll up your sleeves and get a little technical? This piece will answer your questions about which links are most valuable if you are willing to give it a little attention and thought.

Speaking of correlation data, no single, simple metric is better correlated with rankings in Google’s results than the number of unique domains containing an external link to a given page. This strongly suggests that a diversity component is at play in the ranking systems and that it’s better to have 50 links from 50 different domains than to have 500 more links from a site that already links to you. Curiously again, the original PageRank algorithm makes no provision for this, which could be one reason sitewide links from domains with many high-PageRank pages worked so well in those early years after Google’s launch.

Once again, we find that business, or at least the marketing business, is just high school with better clothes. Social media marketing can be an excuse to hang out and have a good juvenile fun while making a few bucks, or so says Mashable.

Hey there, ma and pop: Are you hip to Twitter ( ), Facebook ( ) and the myriad of other social media tools that are currently at your disposal — you know, the ones the teens and 20somethings have basically dovetailed into their everyday lives? Social media may seem like a vapid way for tweens to gossip about Twilight ( ) and the like, but it can be an effective (and fun) way to reach new customers and create stronger bonds with loyal fans.

Don’t let this scare you, but the time to do some clear thinking about your social media marketing campaign is before you begin. This post, if read thoroughly, could lead to some very useful values clarification about your next few steps in social media presentation.

5. What feeling do we want to inspire in others through our interactions?
What’s the takeaway for them beyond a “positive brand experience.” Get specific. If your brand is fun, it’s probably a good idea to extend that spirit of fun into your social web presence.
6. Will we be proactive in our conversations? Reactive? Both?
If you’re using social media to address customer service issues, a reactive strategy might be best unless you’re incorporating a loyalty or rewards program into the strategy. This can be flexible, but there should be primary and secondary purposes for the presence on the social web for branded profiles.

“I don’t know what to write about”, or, “I don’t have time to blog”, usually translates to — “I am afraid of the blank page.” Not to worry, many well-known successful writers have the same fear at times.

This article presents strategies that will allow you to escape blogger’s block.

Every now and then I poll my blog readers and ask about their challenges with blogging. Without fail, most people say that their number-one challenge is that they don’t have time to write on their blog. Frankly, I think that is a false problem because you make time for what’s important. I suggest reframing the challenge from “I don’t have time to write on my blog” to “I make time to market my business.” In the context of your business, blogging is a marketing tool.

Basic SEO Concepts

Here is another quick way to get your head around basic SEO concepts. This series of articles stresses the strategic over the tactical and is rich in concepts rather than specifics. Which is the way it should be, because the specifics change weekly, but the concepts very slowly.

Ironically if you take a step back and generally market yourself well some of the more difficult parts of SEO will take care of themselves. That’s not to say you should ignore SEO, but most of us don’t need to obsess over every little detail. There are many, many factors that determine where a page will rank in search results. Obsessing over one of those factors doesn’t make sense. Try to see the forest instead of staring intently at a single tree.

What Google Thinks About Your Links

How much is a link worth?

In this post, I’m going to walk through ten principles of link valuation that can be observed, tested and, in some cases, have been patented. I’d like to extend special thanks to Bill Slawski from SEO By the Sea, whose recent posts on Google’s Reasonable Surfer Model and What Makes a Good Seed Site for Search Engine Web Crawls? were catalysts (and sources) for this post.
