The Future of Google : Boom or Bust? - SiteProNews

 I am not a big fan of any one company having a monopoly or even being close to it. I base that on the thought that power corrupts. Google is a necessity in my field or in anyone's business. I just love talking to someone who thinks they know all about web design and SEO but have no idea who Matt Cutts is.



 This article is on Google+ which was developed to grab a piece of the social media market.

It don't mean a thing, if your content is not King.



High Quality Can Mean a Higher Price


Google will continue to evolve and update its algorithms, and we’ll

off any issues by ensuring your site’s content is of high quality, and
that your link building efforts are following best practices. Ride out
the updates, stay competitive, and you may find yourself able to demand a
higher price for your business.

2014: A Comprehensive Review of SEO - SiteProNews

 Highlights are:

The end result are a few very obvious takeaways:


1) Content, content, content. It’s your ticket to top rankings, but
it has to be authentic, relevant to your audience, original, current,
and interesting. Please do not add to the clutter; make each publication
matter.


2) Mobile is more important than the web for many (if not most)
companies now. Consider shifting your focus to mobile primarily (or even
exclusively if you need to choose) if this is where the bulk of your
audience is.


3) Black hat tactics will take down any of your sincere efforts for
high rankings. It’s getting harder and harder to fool the bots, so
seriously, don’t even try.

Is Facebook Still Worth It? Why It Is and How to Use It - SiteProNews

 FACE IT, FACEBOOK.



 ...1. Let’s Face it, Everyone Has a Facebook Page (except Copyblogger).
Facebook may be on the decline, but it’s not dead. Mostly everyone who
is engaged in the online world and wants to promote their business is on
Facebook. A lot of businesses that are living in the 1990s with no
website even have a Facebook account. Of course, a company website is
still ideal, but being on Facebook is better than nothing. This isn’t to
say you should jump off a bridge if everyone else does it, but let’s be
honest here. For the majority of businesses, it looks kind of weird if
you aren’t on Facebook...
