Sneaky SEO – Once I knew what the URL to my article would be, I included it on status updates, profiles, comments (as a clickable link in my name), and MORE. I also used some tools to find out what the top dogs in the contest were doing (and what NOT to do). This is how I learned about Twylah and Trunk.ly which essentially makes Twitter into a search professional’s wet dream, so to speak. While the traffic generated from these backlinks did not necessarily convert, it helped get my article on top Google SERPs during the first 24 hours. Pinging your web site and submitting to some active directories (not to be confused with Microsoft Active Directory) didn’t hurt either. StumbleUpon – According to Klout, I’m one of the top influencers when it comes to StumbleUpon. Truth be told, even after all these years, I’m still learning new “tricks”. The SEO magic with StumbleUpon is virtually endless.
It has built-in search options that can be contextual, randomized, or Bolivia Mobile Number List a little bit of both. When people review you and/or your content, they can tag it so folks can stumble it via interests or keywords (to be entered via the new Explore Box). I used StumbleUpon links to seed my most active social networks. Combined with BufferApp, HootSuite, Google+, Squidoo, and countless other tools, I built links and seeded StumbleUpon with more traffic which, in turn, lead to more organic, exponential growth.” — Yomar Lopez “The biggest thing I learned about promoting a blog post via social media is how little I really knew about promoting a blog post via social media. Let’s just say, I realized I had so much to learn. I think the best thing about taking part in the contest was a renewed passion for improving my blog, building some relationships along the way and reaping the benefit of the varied expertise all gathered in one place. On top of that, I gained a new bud and podcast co-host in Yomar. PS – I’ve kept this short, because I know you can expect a long-form response from Yomar .
(Ha, yes, that certainly proved to be the case – Oli) — James St. John “Twitter was far and away my best tool for spreading the word and then doing the QR Code thing IRL at MozCon that worked pretty well. Getting tweets from other well-known SEOs was also a good look. Sphinn was cool too because Matt Mcgee ended up tweeting it. The freestyle video was cool for my personal brand (I’m doing a rap trailer for the SearchLove conference) but I think more people shared and tweeted the video than the actual post so it didn’t work too well. I didn’t have my own blog for inbound marketing stuff before so I didn’t have a built-in user base that’s interested in this content. For example I have over 3000 facebook friends but they are my friends because of music and when I post SEO stuff they are like “uhhhh…this is cool but but where’s your new music at?” So I’ll definitely cultivate a whole lot more engaged users before I enter a contest like this again and probably coordinate with another guest post on a higher traffic site like moz at the same time to drive traffic to it.
