google: 8 Facts About Duplicate Content and Google
- 12/11/11 10:38 AM
EDIT 12-Dec: We're talking about duplicate *content* in significant numbers. After reading the comments I want to clarify - reposting your AR article to your hometown blog is not duplicate content. Creating 10 blogs and posting the same articles to them every day, day in and day out is duplicate content. Over the years I have addressed "duplicate content" at least 10 times here on this blog, another 5 or more times on Social Media Edge radio and no telling how many times at conventions and seminars where I have been speaking. It still comes up. Here are the facts, Googlesque, … (77 comments)
google: The Buzz about Google Buzz - death of Twitter?
- 02/13/10 04:56 AM
Now that we have had a few days to use Buzz on the "open market" it's starting to get more and more attention. Here are some things I have observed about using Google Buzz from my personal perspective.
Simple to join - I have a Gmail account so it was automatically on my Gmail page when I logged in. A little troubling - it had automatically followed the people I most email. Frankly I didn't want some of them added so I immediately "un-followed" them. Allows photos inline - unlike Twitter if you post a link to photos in your … (11 comments)

Money Maker - noun - the website where you actually convert surfers to prospects and prospects to customers.

Most of those do not know why and some of those do not care why they are simply happy it works. Maybe right now your links are coming up in the fourth … (7 comments)
google: Making Number One! HWAPAPO ...
- 10/31/08 03:11 AM
Okay, I thought the title was cuter than "Being Number One". And the truth is you cannot be number one unless you make it to number one. My friend Brian Brady calls himself "America's Number One Mortgage Broker". Don't believe it? Then just click that link to Google and see what you get. This posting is not about being number one on Active Rain - this is about being number one where it really counts: with your target market. Those would be people who would search for you.

google: Gauging Trends For Your SEO With Google Trends (Working Examples)
- 10/09/08 02:36 PM
Having a rent-a-website $35 per month. Having a custom developed website (that actually gathers information) $899. Being in the top three on Google, Yahoo and Live ... you guessed it. Priceless. For the last several years my money maker websites have been in the top 10 on at least two of the three almost every week for my most important key phrases.
