Case Study: Evolvor Client Goes Viral, Get’s 30,000 Views & the Momentum Continues
A few weeks ago I shot out an email about a good friend’s recent article that got published on a VERY well known blog. The article started a great conversation and did well. So well, in fact, that last week she got another one published, which got a lot of people talking on Twitter.
After the first article was published, a well known celebrity/gossip/lifestyle blog picked up the post and it since has gotten almost 40,000 views, over 700 facebook likes, plus hundreds of Tweets. That’s one hell of a pop to get people talking about her and her new book.
Alcorub, Cocks, & Mojo: An Interview With Debra Devi about “The Language of the Blues”
Rock musician Debra Devi’s book The Language of the Blues: From Alcorub to Zuzu is about as far from a dry, boring dictionary as you can get. In fact, the LA Times calls it “one of the wittiest, bawdiest, most fascinating dictionaries ever.”
I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Debra for a few years now and she’s one of my biggest supporters, so when I found out the book was being released digitally, I had to pick her brain about it and share it here. We’re currently collaborating on using various SEO and Social Media strategies (check out what she’s doing on Twitter to promote the book), which are kind of interesting when you think about all the phrases that she defines throughout the book.
Did Google + Just Became the Most Important SEO/Marketing Tactic of 2012?
It’s been quite a LONG time since I’ve written a post that wasn’t some diatribe for musicians that would cause headaches and break hearts (and ultimately be looked at as rubbish, even though I was right). Now, with the recent news from Google regarding the inclusion of Google+ sharing as part of their search results, I’ve decided to re-join my SEO family that gave birth to me so many years ago and pick apart the topic. After months of insight boiling in the back of my mind, and seeing the growth of Google+ (and the +1 signal) influence on search in my own projects, I’m here today to say that Google + is going to have a very important impact to your SEO strategy here in 2012, and it’s going to be a lot bigger then you might expect.
You Don’t Have to Work It Out to See the Value in Free Downloads
Disclaimer: This is a blatant plug of a band that I’m a street team member of, and I am doing so because 1. I want to get the attention of their label so someday I can maybe work for the band and 1. ‘Cause they promised a few of us Street Teamer’s some free schwag!
If you’ve been living under a rock for the past 6 month’s you probably missed Fitz and the Tantrums, who have been getting serious press and just got done a long cross country tour. I was a little ticked off that I missed them earlier this month at the TLA because I know the next time I see them, it will be in a much larger venue. This is by far the coolest pop act I’ve seen in years and I love their classic sound.
