Comment on Pinterest Now Generates More Referral Traffic Than Twitter: Study by Alison Gilbert, Digital Age Storyteller

Now I realize what you were discussing. I have stopped worrying about people ‘stealing’ my work. The concept of ‘open source’ and pinning other people’s images is part of the Internet community. BUT permission is best asked first when possible AND credit should always be given where it is due. Also putting something on Pinterest is not reproducing it for sale. That is another issue. If you are concerned, you can always put © the copyright sign and copyscape warnings. But in the long run, what can you do? This is the age we live in. I happen to love it. I know others do not. Does that help answer your question? Feel free to contact me again with your thoughts and/or more questions. Thanks!

Dear Matt,
I am not sure which blog post your are commenting on about losing the rights to your images. I would like to address your concern. Could you be more specific about what you are referring to. I would be more than happy to discuss this issue with you.
Thanks,
Alison Gilbert

I heard there are also negatives, like losing the rights to your images. Have you heard this?
I guess it really comes down to what your business is.

Comment on A Blog Post a Day, they say. I say, Are You Crazy? by Holly

Holly — Thu, 09 Jun 2011 07:10:47 +0000

I am subscribed to some blogs that post over 25 times a day! I can barely keep up with the reading, and actually I find this strategy counteractive. It’s just too much and most of the time I just “mark all as read” in my reader without even looking at any of the posts. One post a day is just fine with me as a blog reader – I can manage that. As a blogger, I post on average twice a week (sometimes more, sometimes less) – that’s what I can manage =)

Thank for your nice comment on Holly’s Blog. It’s nice to meet you!

Another blogging guru said once a week is sufficient. I am going to see if I can go with that. And I am going to have two blogs because I am separating Marketing Bytes and Alison*s Art, Inc. into two entities.
Good to hear from you.

You have to admit, though, that blog posts have “juice” all out of proportion to their perceived value. And, the more coherent and original content you have out there, the more “social capital” you possess.

Now, I agree that a blog post per day may seem a bit obsessive (I use the word “bit” advisedly), but if your goal is to push you or your clients to the top of Google’s SERPs, you may have to drag yourself up, kicking and screaming, by a heavy, linked chain of blog posts.

Oh, and I know the preceding metaphor is stretched and a mess, but I’ve been out of action the past few weeks and I’m trying to get the flow back.

Thank you, serendipitousness2011. I do my best. Everyone agrees that there is more information available than anyone can digest or be aware now. This is a result of the advent of immediate interplanetary communication and dissemination of information and opinions. So one my be both very selective and focus down to a niche of interest and professionalism to survive and not drown in the sea of words.

Comment on Essential Marketing Tools: Local Directories and Google Places by The Marketing Bytes Maven

The Marketing Bytes Maven — Sun, 15 May 2011 10:59:47 +0000

Hello Roger,
I hope you found your way to the Yext link. They still send me updates even though the free trial has ended. There are so many fantastic tools that have free trials or that do not cost anything to start. Two of my favorites are being incorporated into both my renovated websites. They have to do with Google placement, reviews, and Local Online Business Directories. All are my favorite new tools (tech toys). So keep an eye out for them. You will figure out what they are if you go to marketingbytes.biz and AlisonsArt.com

Thank you Sally. It is good to know that someone out there heard what I said and even agrees with me! It is sort of a love-hate relationship, this computer technology. Take care and I will look at your website (if I can find the time, just kidding).
