¿Has sufrido un bajón relevante en el número de visitas a tu sitio? ¿a pesar de los días que has esperado encontrar una mejoría siguen las estadísticas sin reponerse? Si es tu caso, es muy probable que tu sitio haya sido penalizado por Google. Respecto a los motivos puede que se trate de un equívoco método de monetización o contenido cuya calidad no satisfizo los requerimientos de los recientes algoritmos del buscador (hasta considerarlo como SPAM), pero también puede que se trate de un error de tu web y no esté en la “lista negra” sino que está teniendo fallos que evite el acceso a los usuarios.

What is Social Selling?

There is a growing amount of buzz about a concept called "social selling" (often used synonymously with Sales 2.0). Many will argue that sales, particularly B2B sales, has always been a social activity.

After all, selling has always revolved around relationships (i.e. WHO you know) and hence the focus on networking, establishing rapport, and leveraging existing relationships.

Traditionally this was done via face-to-face business meetings, industry conferences, athletic clubs, civic organizations, social clubs, etc.

Social Sales and Customer 2.0

As with many new trends enabled by technology, social selling has a tendency to be thought of as the adoption of social media and online collaboration tools by sales organizations. In reality, social selling is itself a response to fundamental changes in customer behavior and their buying process.

Customer 2.0 now has access to unlimited information about your company, your products, and those of your competitors. 

Intelligence Is Key

Social selling is about recognizing that the buying process is controlled by a better informed and more connected customer. While sales remain a relationship-driven business, the power of "who you know" is trumped by "what you know about who you know."  

This has heightened the need for comprehensive sales intelligence that brings together both traditional data and social media.

A great lesson in humility... I think this article touches the major problem of social media, too much blah blah and personal promotion and not enough real useful information for all. It's to each of us to finding the right ratio between the two... I have an idea about that, and you? [note mg]

Why brands have this endless fascination with social media is one of the more fascinating phenomena in business today--especially since many are missing the one key ingredient that, if ignored, will turn their most choreographed efforts into social media hell.

When it comes to branding and the ever-changing social media phenomenon, you’re not a mushroom. In other words, you shouldn’t be kept in the dark and fed a pile of...well, you get the idea.

Every once in while, a certain business mania surfaces. As you saw in the video above, history is filled with these blips: The telephone. Radio. TV. The fax machine. The Internet. And now social media. Within social media, it splinters further--it seems like there’s always a shiny new network. Before Pinterest, there was Google Plus. Before Google Plus, well, you know the drill. And on and on.

From the original article: "Title tags are the nuclear warheads of content marketing: While they contain only a very small mass — roughly 65 characters — they pack an unbelievable punch.

Because of title tags’ enormous impact on SEO, social sharing and conversion, content marketers should know how they work, and how to put them to work

Theoretically, title tags can be of any length. However, length and composition are greatly influenced by the fact that Google displays only the first 65 characters or so in search engine results.

a) Remember that each title tag on a website or blog should be unique, and completely relevant to the content of the page.

b) Besides appearing in search engine results, title tags are displayed in many other high-visibility locations, including in browser tabs and social media shares.

c) Title tags are the most important onsite ingredients for SEO because they explain to Google and other search engines what each page is about.

d) Explain well and your pages will enjoy higher rankings; explain poorly and Google won’t know how to match up your page to search queries."
