Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Ouch! My suggetion like others here on the forums: create a press release saying how you were ruined by an evil employee and throw your twitter name all over, make it almost viral to help you?

What did you use for scanning him?

Not really MORE, but a better mix of backlinks may help shift from page 2 to page 1 also, wouldn't you think?

Whenever I lower my adwords PPC cost, my organic positioning seems to go down? Are they related, if so that seems pretty shallow.

Anyone else seeing this?

Anyone else buildling their website using Ruby on Rails? If so, are you also using any memcaching?

Do you have any tips on memcached concepts, tricks, caveats, and experiences. How are you also doing SEO, any tricks for generating traffic and some Google love?

Thats what I hear from chatter from the google employees, they are too busy working on new features to look back at how people are exploiting them. I think we'll see a big change in the future now that it got a bunch of press.

Subquestion: Is it bad to follow a bunch of people on twitter, to get followers too?

Thanks for the response Rand!

I'm really looking for industry recognition, if any traffic make it to the site for a sale, that’s a bonus.

It just feels so spammy to following a bunch of people, to get them to follow me.

I find books out of date soon as I read them, the online resources and forums like this are your best bet!

Hey Guys,

I created a referral program (http://www.culini.com/cultivate)

Has anyone done this? did you have any luck?

Tips on how to make it successful?

Thanks!

Hey Guys,

I created a facebook fan page and I created a twitter account. I'm following about 175 people on twitter and 30 people returned the follow.

Now what? How can I keep building? Any tools to help me?

image sitemaps is the way to go, Google is loving that lately

I'm finding very conflicting results with my clients thinking that they are ranked higher or in some cases lower than what a non-related fresh computer network shows. The social results really are changing the landscape of seo!

Thanks mark, i'm looking into both of these sites. I agree that bloggers and journalists probably don't care without using other factors

looks promising

Thanks Barry, great information

excellent tool! thanks

Are you talking on-page optimization? is there such thing as an off-site optimizing for local search?
