YOUmoz entries:

  • Even Kanye Can't Make Twitter Mainstream. Ciaran talks about how Twitter seems to be struggling with becoming widely popular.
  • Why Google Hates Links. Moleskin contributes his first ever YOUmoz post and discusses how directories are a great addition to a website for link building purposes.
  • Social Media is People. Feedthebot talks about the motivation behind social media and reminds us that it's more important and more valuable to have an interaction and a relationship with your audience than it is to build links.

Best of YOUmoz:

We had a lot of great YOUmoz entries this week! I'll share the top 3:

  • Learning SEO: A List of SEO Audio. For his first YOUmoz post, Flying Monkeys shares a list of some great SEO interviews and tips that appeal to our aural learners. Way to think outside the box and offer up some nice audio resources!
  • Small Business SEO: Content Strategies. Rishil is at it again--this time he shares some questions to ask your client in order to come up with some content strategies for small businesses. He's certainly building up an arsenal of valuable SEO posts--thanks, Rishil!
  • Google Refuses to Penalize Me for Keyword Stuffing. Darren Slatten shares an interesting experiment he conducted. Basically, he tried to spam the crap out of his SEOmoz profile in an attempt to drop it down from the #1 spot on a search for "world's greatest seo." It didn't work, but the case study is both amusing and quite valuable. Thanks for spamming us, Darren!
