Becoming More Comfortable With Social Media Goals
There are seven words you can't say on television, according to George Carlin, but there's only one you can't say at social media conferences. As Carlin put it, it's the one word that will "infect your soul, curve your spine, and keep the country from winning the war." This deadly c-word is "campaign"; utter it at your peril. Directory:

You Should Only Use One Organic Keyword Per Site Page
I'm sometimes asked this question, usually by someone savvy in search marketing.

Using ASP.Net As A Database
I have a very clear view on what ASP.NET is and what it isn't. I've never given it much thought until recently when I learned that my view was different from a lot of other ASP.NET developers'.

Are You Investing Online From Belief Or Knowledge?
I was talking with someone a few days ago (who will remain nameless) who has been investing what (to me) is an enormous amount of money on their Web site. I asked what was prompting such a massive investment, and was told, "We believe that the Web site is driving a lot of business." Being a smart consultant, I did not let out an audible sign of shock, because that tends to scare clients away. Directory:

There are a lot of discussions going on about security and compliance in the cloud. The concerns are valid, but the belief that they can't be resolved are not. When you buy a cluster of servers and install them in your data center, are they secure? Of course not. There are many things one must do from the perspective of hardware, operating systems, process and policy, network, data center, and software in order to secure those servers and the applications or services running on them.

Your Consumers Are People And Expect To Be Heard
Every expert tells marketers that they must listen to customers. Fair enough. My problem is that too many of us misinterpret what customers are saying to us. I think we forget that customers are people too, and while some of them don't mind bluntly giving us a piece of their mind, most are at least trying to be civil and to protect our feelings. When we interpret what customers are saying, we need to keep that in mind. Directory:

Any Keyword Research Tool Has Its Set Of Limitations
I'm a big fan of keyword research but I know that the data provided from any keyword research tool has its limitations. For the most part, these tools can only provide you with information on what is being searched. What they can't do is tell you which searches were relevant, which results were quickly discarded in favor of a different or more refined search, or which searches actually provide the visitor with exactly what they are looking for.

Choosing Keywords For Content Starts With Brainstorming
The core of search marketing is the mix of keyword phrases that people use to search for information on the web. Part of the value of Search Engine Optimization is to identify what searchers actually enter in the search box. If optimization efforts can focus on the phrases that are equally relevant and in demand, there's a resonable expectation that the optimized news content will attract more visitors of the right kind: journalists, reporters, analysts, bloggers and even end consumers.
