Broken Link Building →
seoscapes:
Broken link building is a white hat SEO method which some of you may have already seen in action, and may be wondering how it’s done. The premise of broken link building is that you are doing someone a favor when you contact them and tell them about a broken link (404) on their website, then you offer them an alternative link to replace it. That alternative link, of course, is one...

chrisabraham:

There are still Americans who are dallying in the 19th century.

jamesglazebrook:
As PR practitioners, we’re getting to grips with social media, and in many cases, getting our hands dirty. But how many of us are going beyond token, tactical use of social media and developing a real strategy? In her book PR 2.0: New Media, New Tools, New Audiences, Deirdre Breakenridge warns: “when constructing your PR plan, or strategising for your campaign, you need to...

I have read a number of articles in the past two days criticizing NBC for their Olympics coverage. Mostly the complaints have centered on the tape delay, the extreme level of commercialization, and the difficulties of watching online for folks in the US. Overall, it has made for a rather painful…

It doesn’t matter that your startup’s product is better than anything else out there. There, I said it.
