Social Media Works Precisely Because Consumers Think it Doesn't

by Jennifer Cario

Study after study after study shows us that people are directly (and highly) influenced by their friends and family. In fact, Neilsen released numbers last year that showed 92% of people trust recommendations from friends and family above ALL ELSE when making purchase decisions. Anyone want to wager a guess on where most people are doing that interacting and getting those recommendations?

When Is Link Worth More Than a Link?

by Nick Stamoulis

I think a lot of site owners are leaving valuable SEO and brand building opportunities on the table because they are still looking at a link as just a link, but in reality the right link can be worth so much more.

9 Irrefutable Reasons Why You Need SEO

by Stoney deGeyter

SEO is much bigger than content or links. It's more than blogging, keyword research or fixing website problems. All of those are things that SEO does, but none of that explains why you need SEO. You may need all those services, but here's why you need SEO.

Should I republish content on my blog?

by Mike Moran

We like to tell ourselves that blogs are this breathtakingly new way of communicating with customers unlike anything we've ever seen before. And, to some extent, that's true. But if you are a veteran of electronic or even paper newsletters, I'll excuse you for not being so bowled over. You've been doing this for years and you know how it's done. One of the things you know is that coming up with fresh content takes work, and one of your secrets is re-publishing content originally published elsewhere. But should you do that on your blog?

How to Get More Links From Every Piece of Content That You Publish

by Brian Dean

Last month I attended Distilled's SearchLove conference in Boston. The speaker list was a who's who of SEO pros, like Neil Patel and Rand Fishkin. But there was one speaker I'd never heard of in my life: Abby Covert. The reason I hadn't heard of her? She wasn't in the SEO field. (gasp!) Why would the Distilled team invite someone who didn't have a clue about link building or canonical URLs to an SEO conference? Because she knew something most SEOs don't: how to create a stellar user experience for users.

True Professions of an Inbound Marketer

by Mike Fleming

A few years ago, I went ahead and got myself a nice liberal arts education. You know, the kind that's supposed to "prepare you for the real world" by affording you the opportunity to take courses in communications, science, budgeting, psychology, etc. I must say that it's a good thing too, considering I landed in the profession that I did. I was recently working on something and feeling a bit "stretched" out of my comfort zone when I realized just how many hats inbound marketers are called to wear throughout the daily trappings of their careers.

Hiring an SEO? Look Out For These 7 Red Flags (And Run Away If You Find Them)

by Stoney deGeyter

Comparing SEOs is sometimes as difficult as comparing beef enchiladas made with a red sauce to chicken enchiladas with a cream sauce. I mean, they are both from the enchilada family and probably pretty tasty, but there can only be one winner!
