Re: Pinterest Gives Businesses a Way to Get in Front of More People

Thank you so much for this Pinterest update. Yes, I have a business account and have numerous Pinterest Boards and have not figured out Pinterest SEO yet. For example, I created a board of a new residential development and purposeful to label each post with Americana Zachary Louisiana. 1 Month later, I do a google web search and image search and not 1 of my Pinterest images for Americana shows up in search. So, now I'm rethinking my time spent trying on Pinterest. Americana Zachary Louisiana does show up in Pinterest search and not logged in. So, I guess Pinterest is strictly its own search engine and doesn't allow Google to index content?

As of 08/12/2014, Scoop.it Pro still doesn't post to my Wordpress blog(s) like it used to. I thought this was being fixed? Bill http://www.scoop.it/t/baton...

Re: Curate or Drown?

Maybe a better question to ask in terms of Curating Content is that I want the most recent post to be nearest the top, chronologically. In terms of user "navigation" around a site, have you come across a specific Wordpress theme that makes the most sense to visitors for the navigation of curated content. It's difficult for me to press full steam ahead with content curation if I don't have a logical navigatable site to post it to. Am I making any sense at all? Thank you!

I understand your point, well taken and I have purchased Curationsoft. My question is this specifically with using Wordpress as my only CMS and "navigation" being the issue...how do I take a newer site like this http://www.batonrougehousin... and add 250 pages to it to get Google's attention and have the navigation of such a site make any sense to an average visitor? Can you show me an example of a site run on Wordpress CMS that has 250 pages and how their navigation works. I don't want my navigation to be cluttered, nor my site. I'm in real estate and would like to cover my local housing market by 21 different MLS areas or pages, 21 local community pages, 30 school districts pages,etc.. But how do I make all of this findable on a Wordpress CMS site? I mean, would you recommend that I possibly create a left sidebar and make that my navigation from top to bottom? 250 pages of content could certainly take up that much space. Or, is there a specific Wordpress Theme for a 250 page site that's more preferable and seo optimized? I would really appreciate any help or examples you can provide. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much, Richard, for this helpful tip on the freeware download! You may consider the Sony Vegas Movie Studio Prof Pro Pak for about $100, comes with Sound Forge and Limited Cinescore Edition. With Cinescore, you can create your own custom music tracks and it automatically matches the length of your video to the length of the sound track. I love it. I learned about Cinescore while involved with Dave Kaminski's Web Video University. Although I benefited some from Dave's monthly fee based site/training, I'd much rather have DVD tutorials from him that are there for me when I need them and when I am ready for that particular topic....and I've spoken with another Web Vid Univ student that agrees. Thank you for your site! Bill

Re: Properly Tagging Your Videos for Search Engines

Richard, thank you so very much for your time invested in helping us understand the mystery of video tagging. I've always wondered what makes Google index a video with the image of the video to the left, while Google indexes other videos without that image. That image draws the searchers attention and figuring out that mystery can really help your site in terms of traffic. We do appreciate you so much! Bill
