Content, Friends and Time - The New SEO ScentTrail Marketing

Content, Friends and Time - The New SEO ScentTrail Marketing | Curation Revolution | Scoop.it

Marty Note
Wrote this piece today in my head sitting in a meeting. We discussed what content marketers do for a living. I realized our main Internet marketing craft is creating content that lives across time via social shares. This post discusses why who, how, when and why you link to is almost as important as the content you are writing.

Turns out we need to have yet one more Internet marketing strategy - a link strategy - or our content won't live as long or go as far. This post describes how to think about your links as part of the chess of content marketing.

Business 101: Social Media Credibility – Why Retweets Equal Implied Endorsement

Business 101: Social Media Credibility – Why Retweets Equal Implied Endorsement | Curation Revolution | Scoop.it
Want to build your followers? Simple: share stuff worth retweeting. Nika Stewart on why a retweet is an implied endorsement and how to get more!

 

**** Even more than implied endorsement is is the modeled data point each RT represent. Since Internet marketing is a fancy way of saying we all roll dice with content and keywords now RTs = what matters NOW and so should be fed.

 

Feeding what matters most to our audience doesn't mean we aren't leading too. We had to create the content that got the RTs in the first place. Watching RTs like hawks on wires above fields looking for movement because movement = dinner makes their value well in excess of their weight. Anyone who thinks Twitter is over needs to understand how such an immediate feedback loop can't be "over" until something 2x as good stands in its place and good luck with that. Slinging rocks in the general direction of giants may work again (David v Goliath) but not easy or sure.
