October 29, 2018 By Stephan Spencer Leave a Comment

How many marketers have been lured by siren song of reddit, only to have been downvoted, banned, or seen their brand smashed upon the rocks?

YouTube Essentials: 5 Things You Need to Start Doing if You Want Your Videos to Rank

October 15, 2018 By Stephan Spencer Leave a Comment

It has been said many times, but it bears repeating: YouTube is much more than a “video sharing” platform. It is currently the world’s second largest search engine. What does that mean for content creators? Three words: Optimize! Optimize! Optimize! Search engines are about much more than “likes” and “shares”: if you don’t give them […]

5 Things You Should Be Doing if You Want to Succeed on Social Media

August 31, 2018 By Stephan Spencer Leave a Comment

For marketers, social media is both a blessing and a curse. We spend precious time crafting posts in the pursuit of likes, retweets and mentions—only to come up empty handed. While we may have thousands of followers on Twitter and Facebook, the reality is that only 5 to 10 percent of our followers see our […]

Social Media! Web 2.0! Twitter! Some other random buzzword!

July 7, 2008 By Stephan Spencer 4 Comments

I realized while writing my last post about press releases optimized for social media and SEO that “social media” may not mean anything to some readers and to others (particularly the early adopter types) it may mean the world. Some folks even react to the term with religious fervor. But you know what, “social media” […]

Social Media “Hacks” (at SES Toronto)

June 18, 2008 By Stephan Spencer 3 Comments

Avoiding Social Media Burnout

May 8, 2008 By Stephan Spencer 2 Comments

With the amount of time needed to stay at the top of the game in social media, it is inevitable that you will eventually burn yourself out. No matter how much you enjoy being on these sites, and no matter how good of friendships you have made, after a while it becomes tedious. This happens […]

YouTube and Video Optimization

May 2, 2008 By Stephan Spencer 3 Comments

From a social media marketing standpoint, YouTube isn’t an ideal social site because of the way it hoards PageRank (video pages can’t have external links on them, and external links are nofollowed everywhere anyways, including on your user page), so it can’t be leveraged to increase your site’s rankings in the same way that a […]
