How To Grow A Network of Social Media Followers

How To: Grow A Network of Social Media Followers... Back in 2013-2014 we sat down with  Inland Finder  ... The company had some 234 followers on twitter and about 300 friend likes on Facebook... It had also only purchased the  www.ladysmith.info domain and had approached us to Web Design and Search Engine Optimize. With our little and fresh knowledge Live Lab steadied on full steam with boastful confidence Excited about the new Startup we called 10 local well established businesses to advertise on the  www.ladysmith.info domain. 9 of them told us to F#%&Off they are not interested as they are paying the local newspapers.... Confidence smacked down within a few hours... Boomed... Bashed and Broken... So we sat down with  Inland Finder  and explained to them that we are dealing with a Donkey Years ago advertising Dynamic.

Twitter Verified Accounts

I-C Please note that: @TweetSmarter is not verified, not a Twitter partner, we don’t work for Twitter, and we don’t run Twitter ads. The upshot: Unless you’re famous and being impersonated, or an important politician or government agency, to get verified: It costs $15,000 to be verified for 90 days -or- You need someone who spends (probably more than) $5,000/month to ask on your behalf (many artists get verified this way without knowing how their agent or agency got them verified) This is based on my experience, and  a recent article from the holder of a verified  Twitter account that says specifically this is how verification works: “…you need to spend a minimum of $15,000 ($5K over three months) in order to “buy” verified status from Twitter. Or you need to know someone who’s “in” with Twitter (read: spending ad dollars with them) who wants you or your business to get verified.” (But: see below for some “loopholes.”) This has also been confirmed by AdAge, which state

Your Business - Local Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Tips

When you're doing Local SEO, columnist Greg Gifford reminds us, you must take a step back and look at the big picture if you want to be successful. Local SEO is getting more and more complicated, and as we roll into the new year, I want to share my biggest, most important tip: STOP Using Your Microscope In Local Search! What do I mean by that? Put simply: A microscope is a great research tool, but it’s a flat-out awful marketing tool. It seems like we’re hearing more and more of the same kind of question over the past few months: “I’ve done X on my site, why isn’t it working?” or “I read your post about Y, does it make sense for me to drop everything and go do it?” Local SEO is not, nor has it ever been, based upon a single tactic. Recently, it seems like many business owners will read a post or watch a video, realize that they’re not utilizing the tactic mentioned, and immediately drop everything and concentrate on the shiny new object. Local SEO is not just
