Everyone who knows me knows I’m obsessed with unicorns – not just the magical beasts you’ll often find hanging out near rainbows but marketing unicorns. What’s a marketing unicorn, you ask? It’s one of those magical campaigns that’s so effective it performs in the top 1-3% of all marketing campaigns. Marketing unicorns are so special that, even though they’re rare, they end up delivering almost half of the value of your overall marketing efforts. For example, here on the WordStream blog, our top 50 articles drive as much traffic as thousands of others (the marketing donkeys) combined. I call it the Unicorn Marketing Power Law. This is why it’s so key, as a ma…

Quote: Just about any independent SEO worth their weight who publishes a number of websites has at least once hit a snag & been filtered or penalized. A person can say "not me" but how do they operate optimally in both the short term and long term if they never operate near limits or thresholds? But now that Google has begun actively penalizing sites for unnatural link profiles & tightening these thresholds, competitors have been giving one another shoves. Some of the most widely highlighted examples of crappy SEO were not attempts at SEO, but intentional competitive sabotage. Quote: Much like wealth, business…

A company has approached me with the following question: Their website had a pagerank 5 on http, because they receive a lot of personal data from a form on their homepage, they put their website *on https and a 301 redirect from http to https. They are on position one for an competitive keyword. With the last pagerank update, they dropped to pagerank 0. They have a good link profile NO spam links. Their question is whether this is the reason for the decline and is there an solution for the https without the 301?

Be warned, this is very long and I'm not finished reading it yet. Grab a coffee first. Quote: In �Keyword Clustering for Maximum Search Profitability� we discussed the idea of clustering keywords and how doing so can increase the speed and effectiveness of your link building efforts. The article was based on the principle of passing internal strength between the pages of your website. Today we'll discuss this subject in more detail. Be warned, it'll involve a little bit of math (we are dealing with Google's algorithm after all, so there's almost always going to an element of that). That said, I'm going to do the math for you to provide what's mos…

Information from Bing's perspective about moving to a new domain: Quote: It makes you want to crawl under a rock. The day your boss comes to you and says �We�re looking at a new domain name. Can you help us move to it?� Worse are the days like that which pass you by because no one ever came to you, and it�s only in the panic of dwindling search traffic that people darken your door to ask the resident SEOgre what happened. Bing - Moving domains: avoiding the pitfalls (hint: there's info on how they treat 301 permanent redirects)

To date the leaders of restaurant takeaway and delivery have prospered, largely, on an open approach, that allows customers to choose between mobile web and apps. But a new breed led by UberEats and Amazon Prime won’t allow mobile web access, as they attempt to drive people download their native apps. Whether consumers want to find/order a meal to eat in, takeaway or have delivered, increasingly the tool of choice is the mobile phone. But many restaurant businesses – with a few notable exceptions – have been slow to capitalize on this shift, which has allowed third-parties to gain a foothold in the market. This is happening in many major cities worldwide, but le…

Take a look at the whole blog post before responding. It's a good blog post to get you thinking. Quote: Now that we've seen entire link building related companies vanish due to Pandas and Penguins and other search quality improvements from Google, my hunch is we will see a surge in freelance or solo link builders who decide to go it alone. I base this hunch on the number of emails I'm receiving from people seeking link building work. Besides those who are working solo, some link building companies are still thriving, doing things well, and looking for talent. But the days of being a half-assed link builder are over, and you'd better know what y…

Google's algorithm has had another update, code-named Penguin. Why? Google's Spamfuhrer, Matt Cutts, explains in a blog post. Ahhh! To improve quality. Needn't have bothered reading that, need we? It is what he always says. What are the effects of Penguin on link-builders? Apparently: 1. Too much anchor-text optimisation will be discounted. If all of your inbound links have the anchor text, "real estate new york", then some of the link-juice will be discounted as unnatural. 2. Out-of-context links will be discounted. If you post on an SEO forum, but your sig-link says, "limo services chicago", then much of the link-juice will be discounted as unnatural. Will t…

Almost all SEO experts suggest that the maximum title length should be <= 170 characters. My titles have the word and and I'm thinking of converting it to & to minimize the number of chars. My problem is I'm confused on what to used: & or & Does & count as only one character?

Hello, I want to register a domain name it's .CO, .ORG & .IN and some other extensions are available so which one should I choose? The blog will be related to Tech & Internet Marketing. It will focus on India but am confused whether to go for .IN itself as it may not perform well on Google.com. And if you were to choose between .NET or .CO then which one would you prefer? Google is considering .CO as a generic domain name like .COM, .NET but I have yet to see .CO domains in SERPs....

Great, yet another social network to join. ;) Quote: I just spotted the news of So.cl going live on Techmeme. This being a Sunday, I wasnt planning to work. However, I couldnt help but go in and play around. So heres a quick rundown on the social network with a triple-handicap: why use it instead of Facebook, instead of Google+ or instead of the new Bing that just added social features. Microsoft Launches Socl Social Network: A Look Inside (there is a dig at Mark Zuckerberg above this)
