The Story So Far In Yahoo’s Drive To Double Its Production Of Original Content

Leave a comment

Since the acquisition of Associated Content in May, Yahoo! have been increasing their efforts to produce a substantially improved amount of original content on their site. Associated Content is a large contributor based source of material, with approximately 380,000 writers.

Yahoo have since capitalised on this move through a smart programme of hiring, and luring in high profile names such as Ben Stiller, whose ‘webisodes’ will be created and broadcast exclusively on the Yahoo! site.

The search engine company have been making strides towards the ultimate goal of 20% original content since 2007, with the formation of Yahoo! Sports. In the development of this new dimension, Yahoo! brought in a series of editors and bloggers tasked with the job of writing original articles.

By moving into this arena, and by taking steps to evolve their business model from a search engine provider to a content provider, Yahoo! are now in direct competition with companies such as AOL and even the New York Times.

In fact, according to eBizMBA.com, Yahoo! News is the most popular news site in the USA with 70 million unique monthly visitors.

SEO experts QueryClick.com commented on Yahoo’s ongoing mission, highlighting the importance of originally produced material:

“For Yahoo!, it is the difference between covering a news story, and breaking one. The benefits of self produced content are significant, insofar as they not only enable the site to move into the more lucrative arena of content generation, but also enhance the reputation of the site as an authoritative figure in journalism.”

In another move towards the 20% target, a new VP and Head of Originals and Video Programming has been hired by Yahoo!. Erin McPherson, a trained lawyer, will be responsible for the development and production of material, as well as brokering various content partnerships between Yahoo! and other content providers.

Search Engine Bing’s Increased Market Share Hailed As Catalyst For Innovation By Search Engine Marketing Experts QueryClick.com

Leave a comment

After a year online, Microsoft’s search engine Bing has successfully asserted itself as a real industry competitor by securing 12.7% of the search market share in just 12 months.

While Google and Yahoo retain 62.6% and 18.9% of the market respectively, Bing’s achievements are thought to have found a resonance with web users through its ‘consumer friendly approach’ and ‘type less, do more’ strap line.

Microsoft’s mobile web strategy has also added to Bing’s success with an iPhone widget being downloaded by some 4.3 million US users in the past six months alone.

Search engine marketing experts QueryClick praised Bing’s successes in such a highly competitive industry.

A spokesperson for the company said:

“When you think about web search there’s one big player and that’s Google. For years, Google have held sway over the market without much competition but this could all be about to change.

“Microsoft have invested a significant amount of money into positioning Bing as a recognised search engine and will continue to do so. In a bid to offer web users a service that goes beyond that of Google and other rivals, Bing have had to push innovation to its limits and, in turn, Google needs to do its bit to stay one step ahead.”

Looking ahead to the next twelve months, Bing developers revealed that the service would move towards returning search results based on the user’s location which would encourage more relevant suggestions; especially where shopping and travel are concerned.

SEO experts QueryClick.com Welcome China’s Renewal of Google’s ICP License

Leave a comment

Following speculation that the search engine giant would have its license revoked after its redirection of Chinese users to the unfiltered Hong Kong site, the Chinese government have decided to renew Googles ICP license, for 12 months at least.

This is the latest in a long series of events involving Google and the Chinese authorities, in which both have refused to compromise in their operations. Now however, reconciliation has been achieved by the mutual appeasement of both sides, with sacrifices being made in order to prolong the presence of Google in China.

The immediate outcome of the announcement was a 2.8% rise in Google shares during Friday trading. The license renewal is a significant factor in the continued growth of Google, as well as a beneficial conclusion for the Chines internet industry and internet community.

In the opinion of SEO experts QueryClick.com, having access to the usage of the largest internet community in the world will prove to be a seminal step in Google’s future success. While the access of the Chinese public to the Google search engine provides a huge boost to the improving sense of open-ness in China, as well as bolstering their economy

However, the search engine has had to make a concession insofar as users are required to make an extra click in order to access Google’s search facilities on the Hong Kong site. This may lead to users turning to an alternative and more convenient option such as the Chinese engine Baidu.com.

Facebook Changes Praised By SEO Experts Queryclick.com Following The Installation Of A ‘Panic Button’ as Recommended by CEOP

Leave a comment

Following months of negotiations between Facebook and the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP), the social media site has agreed to the provision of a panic button to all users, specifically targeting those aged between 13 – 18.

Facebook have made a raft of sweeping changes recently, from the closing of its online gift shop, to the most recent addition of the CEOP backed child safety application. The social networking site had previously been resistant to the panic button feature, insisting that it already had sufficient reporting systems in place.

CEOP has recommended the inclusion of additional measures such as the panic button since November 2009. The feature, which has also received the backing of 44 police chiefs across Britain, is an opt-in service which will be promoted most heavily amongst the 13-18 age group.

Due to the optional nature of the service, a campaign is to be launched by Facebook and CEOP in a bid to raise awareness of the application, as well as the significance of online safety. This campaign involves the display of an automated message on the homepage of users within the most vulnerable age group.

This will be reinforced by a CEOP-Facebook information page which hopes to further educate youngsters of the dangers associated with social networking. By appealing to teenagers through the coverage of topics of interest such as music, celebrities and exams, the page hopes to reach as large an audience as possible.

SEO experts QueryClick.com have welcomed this approach, with the belief that the offerings of popular content will draw in the targeted traffic. One QueryClick spokesperson explained that:

“By appealing to younger Facebook members through their potential areas of interest, and by specifically targeting the 13-18 age group via automated messages, this campaign will contribute greatly towards the improved online safety of Facebook, as well as the level of confidence in parents with regards to their children’s online activity.”

Facebook have cited the reason for the closure as a result of the need to focus their attention on developing the more popular features of their site including, the news feed, photos, the ‘like’ button, and Facebook advertising. In particular, it is the advertising aspect which PPC experts QueryClick.com believe will go from strength to strength in the coming months.

Government Looks to Facebook Users for Ideas on Spending Cuts

Leave a comment

With 23 million members in the UK alone, the social media site could provide Ministers with a wide ranging source of suggestions from the public with regards to the proposed spending cuts. The growing presence of the political world on social networking is a logical step forward according to SEO experts QueryClick.com.

The ‘Spending Challenge’ profile set up by the government has already received some 50,000 responses to their invitation for spending cut ideas. On the page, users are able to discuss spending priorities, offer their views and vote on their favourite suggestions.

It is proposed that the most worthy solutions will be further analysed by Treasury officials, in addition to the Chancellor George Osborne set to meet some of the contributors to the page to discuss their opinions.

This move signifies a turnaround in the view held of social networking sites by Prime Minister David Cameron. Prior to his election into Downing Street, the PM was deemed to be dismissive of this form of communication. Now however, the government is to make Facebook its primary means of public communication on issues of the economy.

Earlier this week, Prime Minister Cameron spoke with Facebook Founder Mark Zuckerberg to discuss a possible partnership with the site. On a recent visit to London, Zuckerberg was impressed by the level of public oriented online sites created in Britain after attending the London Facebook developer event. One particular project which appealed to Mr Zuckerberg, and one which he discussed with the PM, was the ‘Together We Can’ initiative. It offers communities in the UK a chance to influence the development of their local area.

The idea of integrating politics into the world of social networking, and subsequently creating a series of dialogues between ministers and voters, is a logical and inevitable step forward according to SEO consultants QueryClick.com. The increasing usage of social media, and Facebook in particular, cannot afford to be ignored by governments seeking to better understand and converse with a greater majority of the population.

Social media experts QueryClick.com believe that this process will vastly increase traffic levels on Facebook, and will even tempt first time users to the site. With such an influx of users, the SEO benefits will be strongly felt in terms of the traffic increase, frequently updated information, and the huge potential for information sharing across sites.

HubShout Promotes Transparency and Accountability in New SEO Reseller Program

Leave a comment

HubShout, LLC (“HubShout”) is a national search engine marketing (“SEM”) firm that specializes in search engine optimization (“SEO”) and pay-per-click (“PPC”) management. In 2009, after several successful years of direct client SEO and PPC management, HubShout opened up an SEO reseller program to a select number of web design companies and agencies. This initial launch was actually a pilot program designed to test the applicability of HubShout’s proprietary SEM technology platform to SEO outsourcing. HubShout expanded its SEO reseller programs in 2010 based on early success and positive feedback f r o m pilot program participants.

HubShout’s co-founders, who both have backgrounds in Fortune 100 companies, agreed f r o m Day One that existing SEO reseller programs lacked both transparency and accountability. It seemed logical to them that web design companies and agencies would want to outsource their SEO; however, the state of the SEO reseller industry at that time-particularly the industry’s dominance by off-shore entities-was rife with problems and questionable practices. Many SEO resellers preferred to work under a shroud of mystery and promoted fear of inappropriate SEO tactics as a deal-closing strategy on a regular basis. HubShout views this activity as nothing short of irresponsible business practice and has made transparency in SEO outsourcing a primary focus of its SEO reseller program.

Accountability is another of the major tenets of HubShout’s business philosophy. Many SEO resellers avoid taking direct responsibility for the business results of their outsourcing campaigns. Even those firms that guarantee results tend to do so based on long-tail keyword phrases that reap no real benefits for their clients. HubShout believes that this SEO outsourcing approach is wrong. HubShout believes that the best foundation for a successful working relationship is complete honesty in all business dealings. It prominently displays and regularly discusses its search engine ranking results with resellers and end-customers. Campaigns that, for some reason, are not producing good results are openly addressed. HubShout’s founders firmly believe that successful long-term business relationships are built on open and honest win-win scenarios.

Web Content Management Solutions For A Strong Web Presence

Leave a comment

databasepublish.com: With a wide selection of web content management solutions on the market, several organizations are choosing to use a content management consultant to ensure a good fit for the organization. The combination of system requirements, pre-existing systems, organizational goals, out-of-the-box functionality all contribute to the effectiveness of a particular product.

Web Content Management Solutions For A Strong Web Presence

A web content management solutions consultant can provide valuable insight into the various products on the market. While there are some standardized terms in the industry, each product tends to have its own set of vocabulary when describing some of the system functionality. As a result, a content management consultant can be of great assistance by putting the various platforms on a level playing field and play the role of translator for some of the terms whose definitions vary f r o m product to product.

This is true for Drupal content management systems as well as for many of the other proprietary products on the market. Although the Drupal CMS is an exceptional choice for many organizations, there may be other solutions that are more applicable for a given organization. As a result, it becomes important to consider a content management consultant that has experience with a number of different products and is product neutral. In these instances, highly experienced web content management solutions consultants can impartially evaluate the Drupal CMS along with other solutions on the market.

There is good reason why Drupal CMS is a popular choice among businesses. It allows organizations to repurpose IT staff and brings content experts into the forefront of the web activities. Drupal CMS is an incredibly powerful solution that is also easy to use. The result is that technical personnel can focus on other organizational concerns and the content experts are able to better able to maintain the accuracy and effectiveness the web content.

Web Content Management System Solves Web Formatting Problems

Leave a comment

Several organizations have invested considerable time and money into manually formatting web content in order to update and maintain their web presence. As a result, executives and decision makers have sought web content management system solutions that eliminate the amount of time and energy required for website maintenance activities.

Among the many solutions, Drupal content management solutions are becoming increasingly popular among web content management systems. The advantage of Drupal is in its powerful functionality and simultaneous ease of use. Drupal content management is a powerful solution that makes the updating of blog posts, press releases, photo galleries, video, search functions, e-commerce functionality and many other functions accessible to the non-technical user.

As a result, Drupal content management liberates IT personnel and places the management of web content into the hands of the content experts. As a consequence, the content experts are better able to accurately tag content and increase the usability of the organization’s website or websites. Drupal content management system makes it so that multiple websites can be easily managed by a single or multiple departments.

The flexibility of the Drupal Web content management system is quite extraordinary. It is important to note that although Drupal can be incredibly valuable once it is implemented; bridging the gap between a current system and migrating over to Drupal may be somewhat more complicated. For this reason, it is recommended that one find a qualified professional web content management system consultant to ensure a smooth transition.

Web Content Management System Professionally Implemented

Leave a comment

databasepublish.com: There are several reasons why organizations are choosing to consider using a web content management tool such as Drupal for their web site management. Drupal is an open source web content management system solution that combines a user friendly interface with powerful functionality capable of performing in the most demanding environments.

Drupal implementations are spurred on by the need for increased efficiency and more effective use of technical and non-technical personnel. With Drupal, an organization is able to re-purpose technical IT personnel away from the website domain and place the domain of the web content into the hands of the content experts.

The resulting web content management tool maximizes personnel effectiveness. The content experts are able to easily manage blog posts, press releases, photo galleries, video content, e-commerce, and search functions while the technical personnel can focus on other business critical items. Drupal implementations have become an increasingly popular choice in the market as a result of Drupal’s flexibility and ability to create value for the organization.

When considering a web content management system, it is recommended that one consider using a web content management consultant. The reason for this varies from organization to organization. However, web content management system consultants provide value and reduce risk during the implementation process.

SOKULE Combines the Best Features of Free Posting Sites for A More Effective Social Business Marketing Strategy

Leave a comment

A newcomer to social networking, Sokule.com, promises to blend the best features of social business networking sites in order to help businesses boost their online exposure for increased customer contact.

SOKULE Combines the Best Features of Free Posting Sites for A More Effective Social Business Marketing Strategy

Internet entrepreneurs and marketing professionals Jane Mark and Phil Basted launched SOKULE in 2009 in order to create a social media website that was geared more directly to the needs of business owners who were looking for ways to integrate social business networking sites into their marketing plans.

The fact that small businesses face a tougher time in securing the m a s s i v e amounts of marketing exposure that larger companies tend to have is why Mark and Basten designed SOKULE as a social media portal that harnesses the power of multiple free posting sites in order to help smaller companies quickly release information about their companies to many places online.

Each time a user “Squeeks” a Sokule profile update, they can also post the same update at 49 other free posting sites, such as Facebook and Twitter. Not only does this help reduce a business owner’s social marketing time, but this m a s s i v e release of information will also help the company catch the attention of search engines.

Increased search engine exposure will go a long way towards helping a new (or existing) business quickly develop a positive Internet reputation. In addition, any time an upgraded Sokule user’s followers decide to upgrade their membership, the user will earn a commission.

The idea helping to grow the Sokule user base can also be profitable is one of the many features that help Sokule to stand apart f r o m other social business networking sites and traditional free posting sites.

Yahoo/Facebook Deal Brings a Level of Consistency to Social Networking According to SEO Specialists QueryClick.com

In an age when many users are active on a multitude of social networking sites, it makes sense that steps have been taken to link Yahoo and Facebook together in a bid to create a more efficient and cohesive web of networks. SEO experts QueryClick.com see this as a clever move by both sides, and is aware of the potential benefits of such a deal.

Yahoo/Facebook Deal Brings a Level of Consistency to Social Networking According to SEO Specialists QueryClick.com

Yahoo and Facebook have recently announced a site tie-up, reasserting further their relationship in the process.

The dealings between the two began last year with Yahoo’s integration of Facebook’s Connect, a service which allows one to log-in to other services using one’s Facebook ID, as well as allowing users to view what their friends have been reading, watching, and enjoying on the social networking site, and to subsequently receive recommendations from such friends.

Speaking of Yahoo’s integration of Facebook’s Connect, Vice President of Yahoo Jim Stoneham explained that:

“You will be able to see your friends’ activities on Yahoo! and share Yahoo! content…directly on your Facebook stream.”
