Re: Why You Shouldn’t Send Image-Only Emails

webjoe — Tue, 15 Dec 2020 02:04:47 -0000

The biggest concern, is actually that image only emails can hurt deliverability and land it in the spam folder. Why? If inbox providers can't parse what the email is about, it'll assume the worst and punt it to spam. All that great design, and nobody to see it reminds me of the old adage: "If a tree falls in a forest, and nobody hears it, does it make a sound?"

Re: SPI 293: My Top Performing Affiliate Marketing Products, and Why They Performed So Well

webjoe — Wed, 22 Nov 2017 20:46:25 -0000

I am most grateful for the opportunities I have had, the people I have had the chance to meet through my consulting business, and my ecommerce clients who trust me and partnered with me with their businesses.

Above all, I'm grateful for a super supportive and encouraging wife and my family and friends who's been there through the tough and rough times as well as the celebrations of amazing moments too!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Re: Short Facebook Videos: An Experiment

This is very inspiring! Creating quick videos is something I think is a great first step before embarking onto the process required to create full videos with sound and the proverbial talking head.

Curious - which video capturing tool did you find easiest to use? Did you try any others in the process of selecting the software/tool to use?

Re: SPI 200: How Deleting a Third of Your Content Can Triple Your Traffic—How to Do a Content Audit with Todd Tresidder

One thing I would add to this topic: if you're doing a content "edit"and you are removing posts (and 301 redirecting it), make sure to run a link checker on your blog for broken links.

You might have cross-linked posts that may no longer make sense if the content was updated, changed, or completely removed. Or you may have to update the anchor-text to match the new title or topic. Also check your Google Search Console (aka Google Webmaster) for any 404 errors.

SEO pros typically use a tool called "Screaming Frog" to do this, but there is probably a bunch of other decent link checker tools for Wordpress. Don't forget to do this!

Oh and for you Pat, make sure to take a look at your Pretty Link list too, make sure they're not referencing a post that no longer exists.

The battery pack is removable so when you're not charging, you can remove it and get a nice svelte case to protect your iPhone 6 in case you accidentally slam it into your CB Radio or it falls out of your wheelbarrow!

Re: SPI 165: Susan Petersen from Freshly Picked on Selling Moccasins and Her BOOMING Online Retail Business

webjoe — Thu, 11 Jun 2015 14:45:24 -0000

Hi Pat, I'm a big fan, long time listener, first time posting. :)

I run digital marketing for a vintage denim company called RE/DONE here in downtown Los Angeles. We take vintage Levi jeans and reconstruct them into contemporary styles that women love.

The company is scaling very well, and it's fascinating how the business works - from sourcing (in bulk) vintage Levi jeans, to the craftsmanship in the reconstruction process, and to the way we sell our products because no two jeans are ever alike. The founders really believe in the movement of making heritage brands relevant again.

To date, We're carried exclusively in Barneys here in the United States, but most of our sales is still direct to consumers from our website.

Re: Some Perspective on Twitter vs. Meerkat

webjoe — Mon, 16 Mar 2015 18:45:07 -0000

If you listen to some of the really insightful thoughts by Ben Rubin, Meerkat was very deliberate to be a public-only casting at it's start. Twitter is a great platform because Twitter's graph matches that intent. Possibly why other graphs (phone/contact/emails) may have a different use-case is because it has a different type of graph - one based on stronger ties (than the weak ties you have in Twitter).

So the fact that it was all out in the public, using Twitter's graph, I think sculpted Meerkat to be a one-to-many broadcast medium as opposed to livecasting to my "family/friends" of my newborn daughter's first baby steps - it almost dictates some of the potential content (like events, influencers, etc vs me livecasting my lunch and chatting with my friends).

Another easy to understand example is LInkedIn vs. Facebook - one is professional, the other is more personal. Surely you can connect with your friends/family at LinkedIn - and you can choose to invite your coworkers to Facebook. There's some native cultural lines that breaks when you do this, and I think Meerkat is drawing it's own opinions that it want's to be a platform for the public view, not private or friend view (I think they tried that with their previous products/pivots).
