Love Content? Set it Free! (It’s No Longer Yours Anyway)
I’ve been revisiting an old chestnut with a bunch of clients lately: why, where and when should we be free with our content? The answer to ‘when?’ is ‘as often as possible.’ The answer to ‘where?’ is (usually) everywhere; and the answer to ‘why?’ is neatly summed up in this PPT from Mike Ellis of Eduserve…

Rich Snippets: Who is He?
Last year Google introduced Rich Snippets to their search results (we even blogged about it here). Originally, there were options to enhance results with reviews and information about people. They have since added support for videos and most recently, events. Why? And who is the mysterious man ‘Rich Snippets’
Google Sentiment Analysis: For Breakfast
Computer-judged sentiment analysis is about as reliable as a Met Office weather forecast. A Met Office weather forecast barked-out by a stolen Jack Russell in the absence of anyone else who knows better. And the dog has had catnip.

Social Media Measurement & ROI: New Tricks for Old Dogs, But Still the Same Old Dogs
Social Media is not the ‘new marketing’ per se. The aims remain the same. In other words… teach the Old Dogs new tricks, techniques, metrics, etc. But they’re still the same Old Dogs – acquisition, interactions, awareness, SEO, etc… Here’s a handy ‘Cut Out & Keep’ diagram to explain…
Google Goes Real Time: Social SEO Now Big Time?
If the goal is to stay on page one of the SERPs all of the time then no doubt we’ll see a raft of real-time-content-optimisation-update-bots that happily spew out a stream of SPAM via any Social Media profile you may care for… but to go this route would be short sighted…
