Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I don't think I have ever seen any data for "the most viewed" press releases. Some of those free press release websites might have a public view count, but sites like prnewswire or prweb etc, I don't think they do.

I believe allinurl:fit OR fitness OR crossfit OR health OR strength OR shape OR workout OR muscle OR sixpack OR bodybuilding should work. Hope that helps, Adam.

Thanks, I know about this, but the results show everything, including blog posts. What I want is a verified study that shows results

thanks!

I would either look at http://www.dmoz.org/ or http://www.alexa.com/topsites/category Google Trends might also assist in research and comparison - http://www.google.com/trends/

Hi, I would suggest that you check in b2b portals like Alibaba. Email marketing, adsense and seo. Plus you could try to get few affiliates and pay them a commission if they make any sale. You could go in various embassies of different countries based in your country and ask them for contact details of people who might be interested in buying this kind of products.I hope that this helps.

Some questions that can be on the list: How dose he (the client) measures success  out of SEO?  What are the SEO KPIs and targets ? ( with those you can really get a very good feeling on what type of client you have or you will have). You can also elaborate based on the answers and drill down to understand better their view. Leave room for your proposals and other better KPIs that you can propose. What keywords he would like to target ? (in order to have a good starting point for your keyword research session) In his view, what are the main competitors and why ? (starting not only with rankings but also with content, UX and social exposure) What SEO efforts have been done on the website so far ? (really important one - you will probably need a list and dates for changes in order to have a clear assessment of the project) Dose he track and monitor the site ? if yes, with what tools ? (GA, WMT, SeoMoz etc). Ask for access if possibile (sign and nda if needed) Ask more about the current tracking: dose the client have goals and tracking events setup in Google analytics. Dose he review the feedback from those tools and what decision did the client take so far based on this feedback. Dose he uses event tracking - when, why. Separate chapter about Domain Authority - Link building. Any activities done so far ? Try to see if he knows the trends with link building as you can provide a lot of support about the topic - it's a dangerous topic and you need to be in the driver seat. If not clear, ask about the monetization channels of the website. What is the website income: sales, Saas, adsense, baners, partnerships - it's only for branding etc.  At the end of the day you will need to help him reach those targets: income, visibility , exposure etc. Just a few random ones - Hope it helps

If the negative press is towards a person rather than a website you could try and build backlinks to some more positive stuff that is already present on the web about them. For example lets say your client is Bob Smith of Atlanta Georgia, do you find this stuff when you Google Bob Smith Atlanta Georgia?  What I would do is build backlinks to the good pages online about Mr Smith, it doesn't matter whose website it is find 10 good websites that are online about Mr Smith, and add links to the pages about Mr Smith. Also while you're building up some of the other established sites webpages create a few new ones of your own as well, and tag them with negative tags, but have positive comments, use something like is Bob Smith A #@# in the title, and description however, in the text tell a different story. I see companies doing this all the time when I do background checks on shady sites for clients, and it works. Usually if the site knows what it's doing I will have to search 3, or 4 pages back to find the bad stuff.

Thanks, it is a social networking site, much like Twitter

Step one research: Are there any similar contests out there? What does your contest offer that other don't? How much time will it take the user to do the work/enter the contest? Step two outreach: Who are the social leaders in or related to your niche? Can you get them involved? What are they currently talking about? Are they friendly? geeky? Can you make them you friends and have them share your contest? Maybe get them involved... Step three Tracking: Can you test this out before launching it to see how users interact? How did the user find this contest? Can you find more users from this same source or related source? Google Analytics? Step four Social Media: Can you create videos for the contest using you tube? http://www.seomoz.org/ugc/dominating-youtube-search-and-related-videos-results-case-study What will drive people on facebook/twitter to enter the contest? Is this something worth investing in facebook/twitter adds?

great answer! More feedback from others is appreciated, but this answer is thorough and well thought out. Thanks!

It is required that affiliates with a site do list on the site somewhere that you may get a commission for items purchased from links on your site and that it does contain Affiliate links. If you put this in your tems of service under disclosure Should be fine. If you want to be totally honest and upfront with your Visitors you could also put a mention of it in your about me section And ensure your visitors that even though you may get a commission If someone makes a purchase from a link on your site that you would Never endorse a product unless you believed in it 100%. Or you Could only promote products and services that you actually do use Yourself. And disclose that as well. The more upfront and honest you are online the better off you will be.

Same way you would SEO any other site. Why do you feel it there may be different techniques involved? I highly recommend you read https://developers.google.com/webmasters/smartphone-sites/ - In addition, I would consider the difference in PC v mobile website users - what are they searching for? Mobile users should be given immediate access to the most trafficked pages and phone/contact info. Check out http://searchengineland.com/5-seo-tips-to-get-mobile-apps-ranked-in-serps-104595 for tips on how to have your app page rank higher in serps. If you are referring to having your app higher in Google Play/ iTunes - use your main keyword in your title and within the product description. Test different searches to see where your app appears and adjust the app info until you are satisfied with the results. I believe ratings also play a big part (apps are not my forte).

All you need to do is go to feedburner and click on the "monetize" tab.  From there link your adsense account. In the adsense account you can go to "my ads".  In that tab there is a section called "my feeds".  You can select which feed you want to monetize. Hope this helps.

You could always use a ticketing website like Eventbrite - http://www.eventbrite.com/mytickets/ They also have an iPhone app for scanning in guests tickets : http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/id368260521?mt=8&src=af&affId=2064962&ign-mpt=uo%3D6 Hope that helps! Stuart

I don't understand how it would interfere with on-site SEO.  We use the Quantcast scripts and haven't seen any issues with it.  Our rankings have been increasing steadily and we haven't received any notifications of crawler errors. Quantcast is generally pretty on-the-ball with things like this and I think if Google had issues with their script then they would fix it fast. Best, Jason

Use Keyword Tool, Export all keywords to Excel. Delimit text and put .coms for all of them. Copy and paste to here. http://www.domaintools.com/buy/availability-check/bulk/ Bulk check all the domains.

To get a rough idea , check the cache date in SERPS for a couple of days ad see how often that changes.

great, I'll check them out, thanks!
