Social Media. Is There Such A Thing As TMI?

I did something today that I haven't done in a long, long time. I either hid or outright unfriended two people on Facebook. Don't get me wrong. I've unfriended people before. Stalkers or people who are just outright obnoxious. This time, though, I dumped people out of my newsfeed that were …

Comments – SEO or Engagement

Word cloud for Web 2,0

Back when I first started blogging, I would check out a couple of sites that promised to let me know how to get thousands of people visiting my website. I would go to conferences and other workshops and the like. The goal, so I thought, was to get lots of lots of people coming to my blog and …

Yahoo and Tumblr – Did We Tell You or What?

OK. So I had no idea when I wrote this post back in March that Yahoo! would think that Tumblr was so cool, so hip and so irresistible as to want to pay $1.1 billion with a B for it. Nah. I was just thinking that it was a pretty cool place and that for people who were going to miss Posterous it …

Will Tumblr Replace Posterous?

When Posterous first came out, I was all a twitter (can I say that?). Here was a blogging platform that was pretty and that I could use either on the website itself or from afar using my ever-so-smartphone. Oh. It was also free. Of course, as we've learned, Posterous is in hospice care and …

Is Your Webinar Too Long?

Don't ya just love webinars? You don't have to go anywhere or do anything. No plane ticket. No hotel room. You don't even have to get out of your jammies. Just turn on your speakers and click. They're great for the presenters, too. No plane ticket. No hotel room. They can even present it in …

Why I Stopped Using Foursquare

At first, I really liked Foursquare. And I wanted to be really cool.  So, I registered and started going gang busters with it. I checked in everywhere. Costco? Checked in. Grocery store? Checked in. Starbucks? Restaurants? Gas stations? Home Depot? Checked in. I also learned that it was …

My Open Letter to a President Goes Viral (well, sort of)

As Mike very well know when I started writing in this blog, I am not the biggest fan of social networking.  I was probably the last seasoned agent on the internet to sign up for Facebook & Twitter.  I think it stemmed from my general dislike of real-world cocktail parties and …

So Simple, Even My Kids Can Do It!

I'm talking about WordPress. Yes, it's so easy to use, that my two middle school children can handle it. I've known Virtual Mike for a few years, having not had the pleasure yet of a real world meeting, and have read his musing off and on for that same time frame.  When it came time for me to …

How NOT to Guest Post

Welcome to AreWeConnected, where I have my opinions and I'm not afraid to voice them. BUT What's better than listening or reading about Mike endlessly drabbling on how to do social media or technology right? Listening to the opinions and voices of others. That's maybe why I value my feed …

When Blog Comments Go From Awesome to Blatant Spam

As a regular blogger on various websites including my Social Media Advisors page for my business, you become excited when you receive a comment on your blog posts.  You get this warm fuzzy feeling knowing that someone has not only taken the time to read your words of wisdom, but also taken the time …

How a Hard Core SEO Guy Learned to Live with Facebook and Twitter

Before I finish writing a sentence in this very respectable blog, let me preface this by making a confession: I am utterly terrified of social media. I didn't have a personal Facebook account until I had to.  I sometimes still catch myself saying sardonic remarks under my breath about Twitter (at …

Who to host with?

It's the #1 question I'm asked - where to find inexpensive shared hosting. Here's who I recommend.
Data Servers are a HUGE drain on the power grid. Here's a host that sources 300% of it's power from Wind and Solar! On top of that, their service ROCKS!
Check out GreenGeeks

Need more power?

WPEngine has it!
