Re: Scribkin’s WordPress Plugins - Let Me Show You Them

I actually wrote this post over a year ago (5-17-08 to be precise) so the site has undergone many changes since then. Onle of the last changes I made was to go with a very light theme with no CSS so that people could choose their own font via their browser preference.

However, that doesn't mean I'm not using *any* plugins now.. In fact, I currently have 33 active plugins, including: Add to Any, Akismet, All In One SEO, Disqus and more.

Hm, I could probably stand to get rid of some of the older ones, though.

Hey Trina, I'm glad you could make it out to Blogalicious09 and thrilled to hear that our panel was inspiring for you. What's your site? Would love to see what you've done.

A Trackback or Pingback is a way for you to know when someone has linked to one of your articles. It will provide a link back to the site that linked to your content, and sometimes includes a summary of what the article had to say and where your link was mentioned in the article. You can head to Technorati.com to claim your blog and also keep track of pingbacks. If you're using Wordpress there are a host of plugins and social commenting systems like Disqus to keep track of these things for you all. Let me know if you need anymore help on this Trina.

Re: Why It’s Easier To Control Your Brand, Not The Conversation

Corvida — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 16:09:25 -0000

People will only see such negatives if they don't know you and the first thing they see is your brand's name (which they've been previously discussing). You have to get that connection to them without the need for your brand's name to be mentioned.

Stimulating the conversation is also different from jumping in with "cold feet." Stimulated conversations have a sense of credibility, trust, respect, and a deeper need for a better understanding about the topic at hand from people that you can trust.

It's beyond saying the right things at the right times, which can make people nervous when they don't know what to say.

Talk to folks without your brand's name being mentioned. Share your opinions as a person and not just an employee.

Re: Bing, Facebook, And Twitter: The Impact Of Social Media On Search

Corvida — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 16:03:40 -0000

Good questions Chris.

I'm hoping the inclusion of social media in search will help us move towards more natural language processing for both search and also SEO. I think overall it could make managing SEO a lot easier.
