<title>Blog SEO Tips from SES San Jose</title>
<link>http://www.seocentro.com/cgi-bin/rss/go.pl?uid=10130</link>
<description>Moderator Dana Todd &amp; Lee Odden Blogs have been abuzz for at least 4 years in the tech space and in the past 2-3 years in the business marketing world. Like many new marketing/communication channels, there continues to be a need to demystify shiny new objects and what they mean for businesses. Blogs and search engine optimization are no different. One point I would make is that companies are wasting their long term time when setting up blogs purely for SEO purposes.</description>

<title>Word Visualization on Search Marketing Blogs</title>

<description>Lists and ranking resources can be tough and controversial. A while back we ranked top blogs on the topic of search engine marketing (SEO and PPC) that publish their RSS subscriber counts via Google's Feedburner. With changes in the search marketing industry, one can logically wonder, &quot;How many SEM blogs really still post about search marketing?&quot; To help answer that question,</description>

<title>Optimizing the Right Content for the Right Audience</title>
<link>http://www.seocentro.com/cgi-bin/rss/go.pl?uid=9600</link>
<description>Last week I posted about situations where search engine optimization isn't for sales and it sparked some interesting discussions. Most SEO efforts are directed towards lead generation and sales, but prospects and customers are not the only audiences for web content. Fundamentally, SEO is about making the search engines' job and finding, indexing and ranking content easier, more useful to searchers. Companies publish many types of content to many different audiences.</description>

<title>Link Building vs Content Promotion for Links</title>
<link>http://www.seocentro.com/cgi-bin/rss/go.pl?uid=9563</link>
<description>When marketing web sites on the internet 10 years ago, people &quot;surfed&quot; the web, clicking on links between sites they already knew about, links from directories and review sites. Search engines like AltaVista, Lycos, Hotbot, Excite, etc were around as well. Remember those? People like Eric Ward pioneerd the practice of promoting web sites editorially resulting in links from these sorts of resources.</description>

<title>Tweetpoll Results on Social Media Monitoring and Measurement</title>
<link>http://www.seocentro.com/cgi-bin/rss/go.pl?uid=9405</link>
<description>Social media monitoring and social media measurement are two very different things, but I think many of the searchers and social media taggers using those phrases don't always make the distinction. For some quick insight from a qualified audience, I turned to Twitter and within an hour had about 40 replies. It started off with this Tweet: Twitpoll: What's a better term: &quot;social media monitoring&quot; or &quot;social media measurement&quot;?</description>

<description>Networking has been a core tactic for building and marketing businesses long before the internet came of age and certainly even more so with the explosion of services such as LinkedIn, Twitter and Ning. Web technology and the mass appeal of making connections online makes social networking an attractive channel for businesses that want to extend their word of mouth reach, credibility and influence.

<title>Search Engine Optimization is a Team Effort</title>
<link>http://www.seocentro.com/cgi-bin/rss/go.pl?uid=8467</link>
<description>TopRank's SEO Team in Paintball Gear As much as companies find the need to outsource part or all of their SEO efforts, many do not have a clear picture of the value that comes from hiring an agency versus a full time, in-house SEO. While many consultants and some agencies offer &quot;value meal&quot; pricing and packages, the cost for a search engine optimization effort will vary based on the scope of the project, hours allocated, client side resources,</description>

<title>Should Companies Hire Multiple Search Marketing Firms?</title>
<link>http://www.seocentro.com/cgi-bin/rss/go.pl?uid=8149</link>
<description>On occasion TopRank will get calls from prospective clients that ask about hiring multiple SEO agencies in an effort to get the &quot;best of both worlds&quot; in terms of best practices and performance through competition. On the surface, I suppose I could see how someone might think this might make sense but in practice, it really doesn't. The &quot;two is better than one&quot; philosophy might work when it comes to getting a second opinion from a doctor or a mechanic but with SEO,</description>

<link>http://www.seocentro.com/cgi-bin/rss/go.pl?uid=7898</link>
<description>Companies that take their search engine visibility for granted or that ride the technical SEO loophole/manipulation train often get a hard smack back to reality when their online sales disappear. Orders start to slip or fall off the map altogether and the IT team red alert phone rings off the hook with calls from the business owner, &quot;What the hell happened to our rankings???</description>

<description>With so many &quot;Web 2.0&#226;&#128;&#179; technologies coming in to play with web design and online application development, the effect on the search engines' ability to find, crawl and index content becomes an issue.

<title>SES Toronto: SEO Don'ts, Myths and Scams</title>
<link>http://www.seocentro.com/cgi-bin/rss/go.pl?uid=7749</link>
<description>If you've been in the search marketing industry for any length of time, you've undoubtedly encountered a wide variety of conflicting or outdated advice. Since &quot;how to&quot; information in so many other industries is often presented as an absolute, many people look for the same kinds of static and perpetual rules with search engine optimization. The problem comes from not discerning SEO myth and speculation from fact which can be a very costly mistake.</description>

<title>SES Toronto: Deep Dive into Twitter</title>
<link>http://www.seocentro.com/cgi-bin/rss/go.pl?uid=7682</link>
<description>I'm back from SES Toronto and wanted to share the presentation on Twitter with readers that weren't at the show. Fellow presenters @davesnyder and @chriswinfield did a great job and the audience received a deep drill down into many aspects of Twitter. In the end, Twitter on it's own and with it's uptime issues isn't anywhere near as productive as it is in combination with third party tools like Twhirl, Summize and Twitturly.</description>
