Re: How to Get a Brand New Blog Off The Ground [Traffic]

adamloving — Sun, 16 Nov 2008 20:37:30 -0000

I think you are right about making videos. But it is difficult to get started. It is just that when I see a bad video, I don't want that to be me - and for it to be captured forever. I think I'm going to start with some screen casts ;).

Re: The Hidden X-Factor That Causes Some Blogs To Grow Faster Than Others

David, I think the underlying force here is the recognition that "traffic" is people. Multimedia content and Social Media distribution (and I would further argue active commenting) are just ways to reveal that you are an actual human, not just "content" sitting on a blog. Promoting a blog takes a lot of social engineering.

It will be fascinating to watch this battle play out. Google has a head start with widgets and ease of integration, but Facebook has the user base and profile data. It seems like Facebook can only be a short-term winner.

Re: Business wiki AboutUs lands $2.5 million from Voyager Capital

I was turned on to AboutUs by a random SEO tip suggesting that listing your business on AboutUs would be a source of an easy, free, dofollow link (it wasn't). I am curious how much this "promote your business" aspect has lead to their success.

Re: Where Tom Is Baffled By the Point of the 8 Minute Facebook Connect Integration

I think Facebook put out this video because Google Friend Connect appears to be faster and easier to implement. As for the purpose of this, allowing someone to log in with their Facebook credentials potentially allows their friends to see that they've subscribed to your blog (giving you more exposure). As opposed to a Gravatar, which has no social network behind it.

This is one that only us developer guys will care about. HostGator did a great job of replying to any tweet I made referencing them this year. I admire any company that is trying out Social Media, it can be a lot of work!
