A Short History on Social Media, Facebook and Twitter!!!!

Social media is all about people interacting online and discussing things like messages, movies, images and links with one another. The earliest source of a social media network can be found all the way to 1994 when Google Geo Cities developed a web hosting support where internet users needed to select their town in which to point content. However, the idea of Geo Cities eventually died out and by '09 Yahoo closed its social networking tool in the US, and the web hosting service exists only in Japan now. 

MySpace Became Popular In 2003 MySpace was founded within 2003 and rapidly became one of the more well-liked social media networks online. It was originally designed for bands and music artists and their fans, but quickly became popular as the social network of choice by the mass internet neighborhood.

The Emergence associated with Facebook Between Might 2005 and February 2008 it was the very best social network in the world, however Facebook was pending large in the chicken wings and by April 08 Mark Zuckerberg's social networking giant overtook MySpace, which ultimately plunged into a fast decline. 

The Arrival associated with Twitter In '06 When Twitter was introduced in early 2006 it had seemingly small in the way of competition. Even though it was a social network website as such, it was more for micro blogging statements, known as "tweets." Users would publish a statement telling all their own followers what they used to do in messages which were no longer than A hundred and forty characters long. 

The issue With The 140 personality limit because there was a small limit on the amount of characters 1 was able to post on Twitter, URLs needed to be shortened to accommodate a brief statement and the URL itself within the 140-character restrict. A shortened Web address would often reduce a URL down from anywhere between Fifty characters to 150 characters to just 10 or so. Any user who clicked on the shortened URL would still be directed to the website the tweeter desired.

Twitter has gained enormous popularity in recent years, not just because of its simple way of micro blogging, but because of its many celebrity users and attention it gains in the media. Facebook joined in the cell phone revolution and produced its own apps so that registered users can now socially interact on the go. 

The thought of Twitter was developed in a day by a group of board members at a pod casting organization called Odeo. The idea had been for one member in order to update all the others with a short couple of words of inconsequential information, similar to twitter posts from birds.

The Google Zebra Update Is Coming : One More Algorithm Update of Google?

Is there a new algorithm update of Google coming soon? Will Google Officially name it as Google Zebra Update?

Seems Google is now dealing with different animal names for their updates to protect endangered species, including Panda, Penguin, but is it worth enough to consider Zebra as an endangered animal and giving it’s name to it’s new update.
Or, it is just a rumor spreading all over the internet from yesterday that Google is going to roll out new update with name as “Zebra Update”.

Will Google Zebra Hit Social Marketing?
Will it work against spam content?
Will it Wipe All Websites Off From The Web?
Or something else is there in Google’s mind?

Is Matt Cutts saying Authorship updates are not imminent?

In a new Google Webmaster Help video, Search Engineer Matt Cutts explains that marketers shouldn’t necessarily take the search engine’s decisions to patent certain technologies as a sign that SEO game-changers are coming their way. On the contrary, Cutts states that Google acquires many patents, but it may not be using them at that specific time.
As an example, Cutts reports that there are Google employees who have been issued a patent for a mechanism that would allow search crawlers to determine if web pages changed their web content following an update. Some publishers recoiled, fearing that Google would then reward or penalize their sites based on their responsiveness. But the search engine’s decision to patent that technology does not guarantee that the mechanism will go into effect. Cutts even issues this warning, “Don’t take it as an automatic golden truth that we’re doing any particular thing that’s mentioned in a patent.”

"The search engine’s decision to patent that technology does not guarantee that the mechanism will go into effect"

Authorship for web authority?
This comes at a poignant time when many publishers are anticipating Authorship will soon be a deciding factor in SEO success. A Brafton article explained that Google has supported Authorship markup since early 2011, but it gained attention earlier this year when Matt Cutts said at SMX West that Google will consider authors’ identities and social reputations with more gravity in the future.
Google already has patents that might help its crawlers attach authors to their “digital signatures” and assign a score that indicates their reputation and authority. This ranking might be factored into search results, positioning authors with the most influence at the top of search queries. Some signs of strong authority include frequent posts from an author, comments around articles and conversation-sparking posts on other sites More, a content writer’s Google+ following and the amount of social shares his/her web content receives might also affect search results.

Algorithm update or SEO best practice?
Cutts’ mentions of Authorship might have sparked buzz among publishers who want to stay ahead of Google’s updates. There is growing support for the practice simply because it associates names and photos with articles, which ultimately increases transparency. It’s a fact that readers are more likely to click links when there are complementary images, but higher clickthrough rates aren’t the only advantage. When publishers embrace Authorship, they also strengthen their personal brands, which can improve their companies’ content marketing efforts.
If Cutts’ recent video is a message telling marketers that Authorship updates aren’t in the immediate pipeline, publishers should not necessarily put their initiatives on hold. Developing an Authorship strategy well in advance of an official algorithm update can bolster a company’s online authority and improve its SEO results.

How to choose the Right Domain Name?

SEO Material provides few important rules to choose the right domain name. While the availability of domains which follow all of these rules may have become limited, try to follow as many of these rules as possible.

Consider naming your company and registering a domain name starting with the digit 1. Better still, choose a name starting with "1st". Why? When people create directories of web sites, they have to decide how they are going to classify those web sites. One way to classify web sites is to list them on the basis of how "good" they are. Another way is to simply list them in chronological order (and sometimes in reverse chronological order) based on the dates the sites were submitted.

The other, and far more popular classification system is alphabetic. Now, the first character in the ASCII chart which can be used as the first character in a domain name is the digit 0. The next character is the digit 1.

Normally, you wouldn't want to start a domain name with the digit 0 since it might send all the wrong signals to your customers. For instance, if we had named our domain 0 SearchRanking.com, it would be telling our customers that we cannot get them any search engine rankings at all! Hence, unless you really have a good reason for doing so, you should avoid using domain names starting with the digit 0.

* Instead name your domains starting with the digit 1. More specifically, name your domains starting with "1st". This will ensure that you get a high alphabetical placement in those directories which classify sites alphabetically. Furthermore, depending on the industry in which your company operates, it may also send the right message across to your customers - it indicates that you are the first company to consider in your industry.

And guess what - the mother of all directories - Yahoo! - lists web sites alphabetically based on the Title that had been submitted. Yahoo! wants the Title to be the official name of the site. This implies that sites which start with the digit 1 will be placed at or near the top of a category. Assuming that you can get your site listed in Yahoo!, just look at what a top ranking in one of the categories in Yahoo!'s directory can do for the popularity of your site!

Furthermore, a small caveat here. If you are going to name a domain starting with "1st", also register the domain which starts with "ist". Then, have the domain containing the vowel "i" redirect visitors to the domain containing the digit 1. This is because people will often type in 'ist' when they mean '1st' and vice-versa. Also, for every email alias that you create for the domain containing "1st " (like sales@1stseo.com), you should create the corresponding email alias for the domain containing "ist" (like sales@istseo.com).

Also, this strategy of registering domains starting with '1st' is mainly applicable if yours is a somewhat new company. If you own a well established concern with a well known domain, you simply cannot change your company name and your domain in a hurry because you will confuse your existing customers.

* Don't want to start your domain name with "1st"? Consider starting it with "A", "B" or "C". Although domains starting with A, B or C will be listed after those starting with the 10 digits, you can still get a pretty high alphabetical placement with A, B or C.

*Try to register a domain which contains a popular keyword applicable for your industry. This will help your customers remember your domain name better. Furthermore, for searches conducted in Yahoo!, a higher ranking will be given to those web sites which contain the keywords in the title.

And according to Yahoo!'s instructions, the Title should always be the official name of the site. Thus, if the domain name contains a keyword, you will be able to include the keyword in the Title which will improve your ranking in Yahoo!. As a minor side-benefit, this can also help to increase the ranking of your web site in some search engines. Hence, in an ideal case, you should register a domain of the form 1st[keyword].com (without the brackets of course).

* Try to avoid using domains that contain '2' for "To', '4' for 'For', 'u' for 'You' and so on even if they seem to make your domain sound 'cool'. Your customers will easily get confused if you do so. However, if you must register such a domain, register the expanded form of the domain as well, i.e. if you are registering greatthings2do.com, also register greatthingstodo.com

* Don't register a domain containing the digit 0 in it, unless it is going to be part of a recognizable word (like 1000 or 2000). This is because the digit 0 is often confused with the vowel O. If you feel that you must register a domain with the digit 0, make sure that you also register the corresponding domain containing the vowel O.

* Always use ".com". If yours is a serious business site, avoid using domains ending in "nu" or "to". Your business will have little credibility if you do so. You can consider registering a ".net" domain, but since most people are familiar with ".com", it is better to stick to convention.

*Should you or should you not use hyphens in your domain? Well, the jury is out on the question. While some Internet marketers will tell you that domains containing hyphens are difficult to remember, spell and pronounce, others will state that domains containing hyphens are, in fact, easy to remember, spell and pronounce. Go figure.

Personally, I would feel that whether or not hyphens are helpful has to be determined on a case by case basis. However, if you register a domain containing hyphens, make sure that you also register the corresponding domain without the hyphens. Once you do that, you can simply redirect visitors from the domain without the hyphens to the domain with the hyphens.

* Don't make your primary domain too long. Even though 67 character domains are a reality, exactly how many of your users will want to type a domain name like thisisanexampleofaverylargedomainname.com?

What is SEO?

SEO (Search engine optimization) is simply "the use of search engines to draw traffic to a web site. It is the technique of attaining a higher ranking in search engines and directories via changes to a site to make it more search engine compatible". It is sometimes referred to more generally as search engine marketing, but in fact SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is just one facet of search engine marketing.

SEO specialists or "search engine optimizer" have sprung up to fill the need for these services over the past 8+ years. Most search engine optimizer will work either directly with the site administrator or with their web site designer to alter the site's code and content to ensure it gets the exposure it deserves in the most popular search engines and directories. The key to a successful SEO campaign is to find a specialist with a good track record, in an industry plagued with inexperienced and unethical providers.

Companies are spending tens of thousands of dollars on online and offline advertising, including banner ad, Pay Per Click (PPC) and viral marketing campaigns, so one could be forgiven for assuming that these companies do not need free traffic from the "organic" search engine listings.

However, by ignoring the most common method used by people browsing the Internet, these companies are sacrificing an enormous opportunity to attract more traffic to their sites. After all, brick and mortar companies don't refuse to put a sign up in front of their businesses just because they have put large amounts of money into promoting themselves via television advertising. Online companies, likewise, should not disregard optimizing their sites for search engines - a relatively inexpensive exercise - simply because they have put large amount of money into other marketing strategies.

Web site is a very large expense for these companies, ranging from a few thousand to hundreds of thousands of dollars. To invest such a massive amount of time, money and effort into an online presence and not ensure it can be found is like constructing a storefront without any doors.

It is obvious that companies need to invest in search engine optimization services to ensure their sites are made more search engine compatible and therefore visible to their target markets.
