Your personal Facebook and Facebook business pages should remain separate, with no crossover. There are different etiquette standards for each. Of course, there will be times when you have a Facebook friend who is also a Facebook fan. Many business owners (the same business owners who initially only considered Facebook to be a social media [...]

As you already know, some of the scarcest (rarest) yet most valuable information a CEO can obtain is honest, unfiltered feedback.  Think about it.  You interact all day with managers, employees, and handlers working to keep the boss happy and therefore keep their job.  Sure, being surrounded by “Yes men” can be more comfortable, but [...]

Natural Traffic Gets More Clicks Than Paid Traffic Okay, so technically this is not a myth. It is true that very often natural traffic to your website will out-number paid traffic to your site.

HTML 5 has a lot of changes in an attempt to make it easier to develop a standard-based web page. The first thing in those changes is DOCTYPE declaration.

Why we keep hearing in every meeting, every presentation and nearly every discussion about social media, the question arises: “Can You Create ROI?” It’s a legitimate concern—we’re running a businesses here, not free NGO —and beyond anything else we do, we sell things to make $$$ . And while numerous other benefits of social media [...]

  Hopefully, if you’re participating in social media marketing, you’re using more than just the tools everyone else is using.

Social media is currently all the rage because it’s new. But let’s be honest here. It’s really not that new. In fact, we’ve been offering social media services for 2 years now, well before most even knew about the potential of social media or believed in the promise of the technologies. In other words, if [...]

Let’s say you meet a guy at a dinner party — we’ll call him Mike. Mike’s daughter is selling hot dogs to raise money for her school class. The immediate day after you meet Mike, he starts calling you and emailing you with requests to help his daughter out. (You don’t tell him you’re a [...]

This is quite obvious, but hear me out. Social media is more than just broadcasting. It’s about connecting and networking. Every so often, a potential client comes to me and asks me to promote a blog post or article, mostly because they don’t have an audience for the blog post to spread on its own. [...]

Especially with the popularity of SEO. This myth suggests SEO has no limitations when there are actually quite a few. For example, SEO can’t create the same buzz as a traditional marketing campaign.

3-5 Ranking factor 3: content Your website won’t get high rankings on Google if it only offers articles and affiliate links that can be found on dozens of other websites.

2-5 Ranking factor 2: keywords Choosing the right keywords is one of the most important steps. If you choose the wrong keywords, you won’t succeed with your campaign. Optimize different pages of your website for different keyphrases. The more pages of your website you optimize, the better. Start with very targeted keyphrases that consists of [...]

1-5 Ranking factor 1: website accessibility It doesn’t make sense to optimize your web pages if search engines cannot access your web pages: Your robots.txt file should allow search engines to visit your web pages.

Social Media Monitoring (SMM) can be a powerful supplementary tool to Search Engine Optimization (SEO) for getting your web site ranked and found by your target audience.

There are few more effective ways to get people to link to your site than to offer something for nothing. 2. Share useful information. Links [...]

It’s important to be aware of what hurts SEO. For one, using “blog blasting” or other Free-For-All link services are poison for your reputation – don’t use them. As we keep mentioning, don’t purchase backlinks- search engines are known to blacklist entire networks of purchased backlinks. Also, doing anything deceptive or tricky (Black Hat) in anyway will [...]

So busy these days, we never been so booked !

It seems that even some of the biggest brands in Jordan aren’t using social networks to their full potential (or even at all).

In days gone by, being an entrepreneur often carried with it a negative connotation. The general public associated business owners with insanity.

Search engine optimization may become less important in the future as Internet users rely more on recommendations and social media to find information. Already, people are asking questions on Twitter and Facebook instead of Google. This means that high-quality content and usability will become ever more important, because users are more likely to recommend a [...]

Who is the easiest person in the world to sell to? That’s an easy question to answer, yet one most business owners, unfortunately never ask themselves. You see…the easiest person to sell to is one you’ve sold to before. It’s someone who already trusts you, someone who’s already had a “Wow” experience with your company. [...]

A lot of companies are trying to get on the social media bandwagon. You might have two companies, both wanting to leverage the power of social media but one gets it right and the other struggles. The biggest shift for a lot of companies is to make sure your mindset is outward-in rather than inward-out. [...]

One thing I’ve noticed is that entrepreneurs feel like they have to be innovative, creative, and singular in their sales and marketing.

WHO ? WHAT ? HOW? BUT .. They’re listening to the wrong people. It’s easy to form a bad opinion of just about anything if you listen to the wrong people.

When your follow-up is inconsistent and infrequent, you’re [...]

“When people refer to “organic SEO” (search engine optimization), they almost always use it as a blanket term to describe the unpaid, algorithm-driven results of any particular engine. However, a sophisticated search engine optimization company will often take the meaning of “organic” one step further. ” To such companies, the “Organic SEO” is essentially 2 [...]

A search engine optimization company using “artificial SEO” will ask, “How can I get links pointing to this site without adding anything of value to it?” The latter approach usually leads to reciprocal linking schemes, link farms, the purchase of text links, and more—anything except making changes to the Web site that entice others to [...]

Whether you are still presenting your products “face-to-face,” or have embraced the benefits of webinars and online demonstrations, here is one technique that continues to drive results: use a selling script.

Well before that, let’s talk about having mobile web site or an app ? When evaluating which tactics or delivery methods to use, consider that consumers are connecting to the Internet with their devices increasingly through Wi-Fi rather than through the cellular networks, even 3G networks. This is significant. This means that many devices — [...]

Online demonstrations should be used solely to promote your products and services. When prospects agree to join an online demonstration, they are waiting for you to show them how their life will be better, easier, or more fulfilling because they have your product.

Gardening and SEO are incredibly similar when you think about it. Rankingsneed links, just as a garden needs water. Sometimes people link to you on their own, sometimes they don’t, and you have to go out and get them – just as sometimes it will rain, other times you have to get the hose, but [...]

According to Google, all Local Search results are based primarily on relevance.

Technology is changing, and so is advertising. If you want to keep up, you absolutely have to adjust — traditional advertising is no longer effective. Though consumers are treating online advertising like it’s invisible, they’re still using the internet. You have to be there when they’re looking for you. An example: Say you’re a guitar [...]

Conventional wisdom says that to beat your competitors you need to one-up them. If they have four features, you need five (or 15, or 25). If they’re spending x, you need to spend xx. If they have 20, you need 30. This sort of one-upping Cold War mentality is a dead-end. It’s an expensive, defensive, [...]
