(From the article): As you can see, these five hacks to optimize every piece of content for SEO are very powerful if put to good use. I encourage you to try them out, experiment with your content where applicable and start ensuring that more people can discover your great content through good optimization.

Long, short, short, long. I agree with Jason Quey. This debate on the perfect number of words per post is asinine and useless.

Really interesting info!

I recently conducted a survey of small business owners.  The lead question asked what their single biggest challenge is.

In more than 70% of the responses,  the owners felt marketing was the challenge vexing them the most.  That matches data from the Small Business Administration.  The SBA also found that as businesses grow, the number who list marketing as their biggest challenge only drops to around 56%.

They also found that 56% of companies invest less than 1-3% of their revenue on marketing, including infrastructure.  Interesting that one of the biggest problems is getting the least fiscal attention!

All I could think of while reading Barry Feldman's post is how marketers and small owners need to try their hand at poetry or photography. 

Barry starts with the idea of discomfort, which is exactly what all potential customers experience before they find you. It's your role to make the experience unforgettable for them. 

He then goes on to describe seven things you need to focus on when writing your copy, with examples to help you better absorb the advice. 

Based on the many posts I have read on the topic, this one is hands down the best because it "walks the talk". It is long but has a lot of bulleted parts and short paragraphs, with bolded sentences and sub-headers.

A simple conversation can lead to a revelation. 

These are simple words, but the reminder is worth thousands of dollars. 

Sometimes, we spend hours focusing on the wrong things. The answer is always within...
