I don't know how they're creating themselves? It's like 1 post has several of them?!
(etc etc.)
And btw... I don't intentionally have a slideshow set up, but I do have Next Gen on my site?
I have a whole bunch of them and I have no idea how I created them. I just make titles, that's it. Nothin' fancy.
positive thinking
?
But ya... I think Egol is right. What are his objectives?
YA, but where does SEOmoz get the data for that App from? Just because SEOmoz updates it every week doesn't mean it'll be up to date?! Right?!
I've used Open Site Explorer here at SEOmoz for the first time and I'm confused by the results.
I'm wondering how dated the results are? And, what are they based on?
For example, I'm certain my facebook shares and like are higher...same with the twitter links. It seems kind of old?!
One of my competitors who gets about 2x more traffic than me DOES have great backlinks. I know that. BUT, it's odd that her facebook and twitter results are what they are compared to mine - they're WAY higher in site explorer AND her links seem on par with her facebook page whereas mine don't. Whereas mine seem WAy Way lower than what they are in reality.
She barely tweets and facebooks any more. Maybe once per month. She started out gangbusters, but doesn't do it much any more.
That's kinda why I'm wondering if it's based on older stuff and not updated often? Anyone know?
Hootsuite is a web-based application. Tweekdeck is something you have to download to your computer.
There are a few others but I can't remember what they are right now.
What business are you guys in?
My opinion....
Linked In if you need to make contacts/relationships with other vendors. It's the most professional way of doing this. But I don't use linked in so I can't say much.
Facebook is a must IMO
Twitter if you want to make contacts and relationships with other vendors. I've made some good relationships here... it's easy and candid.
Re Google +1. I think you might have a google +1 account automatically if you have a google account. I'm not sure if you're +1's are automatically related to that account though? I haven't been paying much attention to google +1 stuff 
"Keywords" isn't necessarily the best term for "keywords". What you're really looking for are the right Keywords OR Key Phrases. With that in mind, all of the examples you provided are keywords.
Hootsuite is fabulous for doing just that. I've been using it for more than a year. There's a paid version and a free version. If you're the only one working on it, you have fewer than 5 social networks, and you don't care to see link reports the free version is fine. the paid version is $5 per month.
There's lots of competition. I think it was beaches real estate (toronto, canada).
Everyone else in the list had data. The one in the first position didn't though.
