Re: 5 Reasons You Should Start Commenting On Blogs Again

Warren Whitlock — Wed, 21 Oct 2020 01:06:18 -0000

I just talk to people. Usually on social media. Used to be more on comment threads. Today is the first time in months I got notice for Disqus

When I am promoting my sites, I find relevant blogs to comment on. Add value where I can. Guess it's been a while since I did that too :)

Re: Social Commerce in 2019: The Latest Strategies to Master Selling on Social Media

Being social to get sales is good. Using sales as a road to a relationship is even better.

yes. I rarely write posts anymore. I spend most of my time in conversations

Re: 5 Reasons You Should Start Commenting On Blogs Again

Every time I get the chance, I remind audience, students or clients to comment on blogs.

"If you have time to read a post, you have time to comment"

I write in a lot of places but the ROI on my writing is highest when I'm commenting.

And it's the easiest too. You don't have to hit your talking points or push a message and beg for a click. Just be yourself.

Show your authentic awesome!

Re: Will Bitcoin go up? Artificial intelligence may have the answer

Warren Whitlock — Wed, 03 Jul 2019 13:53:03 -0000

As soon a any market system starts to show trends, people will think up ways to get ahead of it. Add some AI to that and people will create even more ways to gamble on predictions.

Bitcoin would do better if the volumes used in non-speculative trade increased and prices stabilized. Until then, it's the wild west.

I'm okay as long as at least one Sula Tribe Chief is depicted in each episode

As usual, Razor does the round up best.

I read each one and more often or not, I am reminded of a tool I could be using to generate more revenue.

Re: The Mysterious Creature In ‘Bird Box’ Was Shown In A Deleted Scene

Warren Whitlock — Thu, 27 Dec 2018 09:16:26 -0000

I'm not quite to "midwarm" though I never thought about needing a glimpse of the ridiculous creature. When I see such an overwhelming killing machine, I just start yelling at the screen "stop being scared. Find a solution or die"

What about infrared goggles? Living in a cave?

No hope is no fun. The payoff did not feel like they were solving much.

Re: The secret to writing successful content

In the creative process, I believe ideation is served well by mindmaps. The trouble comes when you try to implement the ideas. It's unorganized by nature :)

Re: How to Edit a Facebook Ad and Retain Social Proof

Warren Whitlock — Thu, 29 Nov 2018 12:14:32 -0000

Wow!

I have too often seen metrics tossed away by something as simple as fixing a typo. Frustrating that people don't see the value of keeping the metrics and social proof.

Even this simple workaround will go unnoticed by many so your readers now have another "Loomer Edge"

Thanks

That's their problem. They needed you in that boardroom. You would have done much better.

That doesn't mean I like the concept. I'm not convinced that a roommate app seems like an iffy business model. :)

Re: Tracking the Evolution of Influence 2.0

Warren Whitlock — Mon, 05 Nov 2018 13:31:41 -0000

I work hard to add tracking and ROI calculations to every aspect of influencer marketing but the more I do it, the more I'm convinced that asking for the right way to do it is like trying to determine what makes a hit TV show, musical act, or artist.

I find that the more talent and experience devoted to strategy, marketing and creative content development, the more successful the promotion. The best talent for content is likely not the best talent for audience building and strategy.

It's a business to be sure. Just remember that collaborations of brands, content, and influencers are better when the team is working together to achieve everyone's goals.

I completely agree and think it's pure nonsense. There isn't a right answer to predicting the future until after it happens. Read John Kay

Re: Take Your Ads From Failing To Scaling

Warren Whitlock — Thu, 19 Jul 2018 16:05:08 -0000

Thoughtful post. Reading it felt like Facebook Ads can be an art rather than a science. Data informed rather than data driven.

Start with "paint by numbers" and create from there... all the time knowing if the creative path in working.

Re: Your Link Building Guide for 2018

Warren Whitlock — Thu, 19 Jul 2018 11:33:07 -0000

Excellent roundup.

On question. Looks like you are saying not to syndicate but it's a good thing. While I think I have a handle on best practices, I'd like to see more clarity.

To me, it's not about whether you syndicate but how you do it.

Agreed?

I'm off to try one right now.

The conclusion that impressions can be added together with "reckless abandon" is one of the best lines I've read on Page articles... ever!

Made me smile and really sums up what you can and can't count. Great article
