Monitoring or Management? Hootsuite is a good one for both monitoring and management. Google has several tools for listening. search.twitter.com can help you track specific mentions and phrases in real time...

In some situations a higher bounce rate could be a good thing. This could be a sign of very relevant landing pages. Of course this all depends on the goal of your site...

Really need more info! Good trending though!

Sub directories/folders used to be the definite way to go for the most SEO value however things have evened out for the most part. I think sub directories are more user friendly... we are used to the slash... extra periods can get tricky.

If it makes sense to participate in these spaces, do it. Don't worry if they are follow or nofollow.

This would be ideal but only if you have the resources to effectively maintain that many social media accounts...

Unless policy changes 301 should continue to work indefinitely. I've never seen (noticed) this depreciating or expiring over time.

If the sites that are coming from are authoritative, relevant, and trusted... yes.

Consider targeting a little more broad version of the keyword on the homepage? And a little more specific on the product category page?

I agree with both of these guys. I would say there is less "risk" in pointing old links to the new domain than there is hoping the "juice" is passed through a redirect.

I'd be more inclined to put the time and resources into optimizing your main site. Build some links, make sure your on page is flawless.

I was just about to add a reply to my previous post to say the same thing. You are always so articulate, EGOL, it's truly impressive.

Actually a 301 (permanent) redirect does pass the "link juice" along to the new site. I've done it several times and it always works.

Do you have Google Analytics installed?

I agree. Here's a link: http://home.snafu.de/tilman/xenulink.html It looks a little shady but it actually does a decent job.

I'm pretty sure I recently saw that exact match domains were losing ground in SERPS. Cutts has openly said the value assigned to them is being diminished in the algorithm.

It can never hurt. I would also recommend including the transcription for each video!

Life is easier with FF 3.6.

True. I've even seem some instances of anchor text being used in descriptions.
