  • MobileMobile apps, marketing tools and connected devices are the single most important new topic you can learn about. It’s all over wi-fi, 3G and 4G phone networks — and every website, network and device handle the technologies in different ways.  Lately the technology is finally affordable and the general population can easily access tools that are user friendly. We use these devices to do everything wherever we are, every day, right from our fingertips. It’s already here, but mobile platforms and tools are the future of everything we do in our business and personal lives.  Social media has sparked a revolution of its use through our personal phones and tablets, but you can bet that mobile technology is the core of all marketing going forward.  If you are designing your traditional marketing venues to be “mobile ready”, then you are already going backwards on the spaceship to the future. Everything you do now should start with mobile strategies and then be able to integrate traditional forms after that. You website, store pages, social media and promotions must launch into air space first, and worry about landing on terra firma later! Want to share your geeky mobile tips with our readers?…
    • Mobile Marketer – Social Media and Traditional
  • Social MediaYou think you know Social Media Marketing? Newbies are pretty satisfied with the difficult hurdles they must overcome just to set up some pages with a good images and that actually connect with their audience. But there is MUCH more to social media marketing.  Advertising, analysis of data, linking accounts, updating tools for new devices and techniques on a monthly basis are just a few topics to consider. Also, whatever was “best practices” on 3 networks last year is probably completely changed for this year.  Remember when you just needed to get ‘likes’ and you could repost 10 tidbits a day to keep everyone happy? If you do that now you’ll be sent to the SMM “unfollow and opt-out” dungeon by your visitors.  You need to know the newest tools and techniques that your audience wants, and you need to target the way they want their data, too. Mobile and video are changing everything lately, and if you post just a few irrelevant pieces of information or don’t reply in the right way, you’re toast! Are you a social media marketing pro who loves to share? We want your articles, links and tips to help our readers, too. Drop us…

  • SEOSEO, the common acryonym for “Search Engine Optimization” is a mysterious and elusive set of tactics for optimizing the content on your website and social media pages to help search engines find you and direct internet searchers to your site. You are always competing with other entities on the internet who want the same traffic from search engines you do. And the algorithms and guidelines that Google, Bing, Yahoo, Amazon and other search engines use to assess your data change radically as they rank your content against your competition. It’s a constant battle to keep up with changes. It’s not even possible to get detailed information about exactly what you should do because “blackhat” SEO sites figure out and manipulate the algorithms which negatively impact other site’s ratings, and causes the search engine owners to, yet again, change the algorithms. There are so many factors that influence your SEO – image titles, video sitemaps, bad or good links, page loading time…. it goes on and on!  The best way to keep updated is to follow the SEO leaders who use it effectively and publish their tips and results frequently. You can find them in our favorite blog feeds here and…
