Clients can easily become obsessed with on-page SEO, constantly tweaking title tags, headings, and on-page content. While these activities are important at the right place and time, people shouldn't get obsessed with it. Do the necessary work up front, make some decisions, and then move on.

Tweaking on-page content on existing pages quickly begins to offer you diminishing returns. In addition, you probably have limited resources for SEO. As a

Google knows a lot about the future of news — more than many publishers. It’s evident in Google’s new product, Fast Flip, which allows news consumers to "flip" through news stories. What’s striking about Fast Flip is that Google is innovating precisely where publishers used to lead innovation. Fast Flip is a new package for news. The publishing business has always been about packaging content. Newspapers. Magazines. Newsletters

As social media has grown in acceptance within companies over the past few years, one debate never seems to go away -- whether agencies should be involved in social media communications, or whether the only way to maintain an “authentic voice” is for companies to undertake it all themselves. Agencies can help:

Not surprisingly (given that I work for a PR agency), I sit in the camp that says that agencies have a significant role to play for ma

If your business either has a traditional brick and mortar store front, or your site can value by being associated with your location, then you can benefit from Geo Tags. If your location is irrelevant to your online success, then Geo Tags will be of little use to you.

Geo Tags are trivially easy to implement and they can help to improve your ranking results for searches specific to your area. This ultimately results in higher search rankings

A certain kind of mental re-framing is required as part of the proper perspective for ongoing landing page optimization.

Each Landing Page Test Has a Cost

You will have to expend time and effort to set up the test, monitor data collection, and analyze the results. Even if your test is successful, you still have to consider alternative marketing activities that you could have been engaged in rather than testing, and the lost opportunity cos

I was lax for years and years about letting in just about anyone to Cre8asiteforums and letting them create their existence there. However, it became clear that the moderators and myself were spending most of our days deleting spam and banning members who spammed the Community. We're often assisted by the Community because members hate spam and report spam posts to the staff.

For the past year or so, every new member is screened before they

You can often customize the link location and anchor text (so long as it's relevant and sensible) - just ask when you send over the testimonial (or, better yet, send over the exact HTML code that will embed the right link so all the receiver has to do is copy + paste). 2) Testimonials are frequently sitewide, but even when they're not, they tend to reside on popular, important pages (even homepages sometimes - an otherwise impossible place to ge

With the announcement of Google Public Sector, the adaptation of Google's standard applications for use within the US Federal Government, it becomes clear to those behind the ball that Web 2.0 is a real thing, and mandatory. As a veteran, I know firsthand that this did not happen overnight…or even a fortnight.

The first step in reputation management is preemptive: Think twice before putting your personal information online. Remember that although something might be appropriate for the context in which you're publishing it, search engines can make it very easy to find that information later, out of context, including by people who don't normally visit the site where you originally posted it.

If something you dislike has already been published, the n

The takeaways here aren't tremendous, but they can be valuable to help explain to SEO outsiders why pages may not be drawing traffic even though metrics like appearing in your XML sitemaps, showing in Google Blogsearch queries or appearing to be crawled in Google Webmaster Tools suggest they should. If you want to determine if a page (or set of pages) are actually included in the engines' main indices, there's only two definitive ways to know: 1

If you don't buy links it is hard to influence the anchor text, particularly if you are doing SEO at the enterprise level AND want to get deep links into commercially oriented pages. Companies spend billions of dollars a year on organic SEO because ranking a few spots higher in Google can be worth a lot of money. If you know a #5 ranking is worth x, then there is a good chance that a #1 ranking can be worth something like 8x.
