This post has a subtitle of Doing Podcasts Right But I'll get to that later... So a weird thing happened yesterday. We had the incredible Leigh Thomas Brown on the radio show (Social Media Edge) and naturally we were talking about her book "Outrageous Authenticity". But the part that struck me …
Just a quick public service announcement. It's hard to be safe and smart in this day and age. Just as soon as you think you are smarter than the bad guys, they come up with a different plan of attack. Here's a few things to be aware of. Recently a client forwarded to me an email they …
Podcasting seems to be what all the cool kids are doing these days. What is a podcast? What would I say? Why should I start one? Those are all perfectly good questions. Let's get to all of that but first... Take a look at the time. Make a mental note of the time (or jot it down). …
I'm a big fan of RSS (real simple syndication) - it powers a bunch of stuff you may never think about. If you get my newsletter, it's because of RSS. I also read about 200 blog posts a day - all via RSS (and feed.ly). RSS makes the internet better for busy people. Much better. I'm also a fan …
I've been a big proponent for using strong passwords. Every site you log into should have a unique password. You never, ever want to use the same password for all the sites you use (but I know you do, right?). The reason you don't use unique passwords is that it's so hard to remember all …

Want to get into Guest Posting? Never use a stock photo. Simple as that. Well, let's say that it's a great start... So, I just got this email. I'm not going to even try to hide the details. Apparently I have a "one of a kind web blog". Hey that's pretty cool. Julie looks like a nice, …
No, not this one. It's a post I read today from Chris Lema. Simply titled "You are awesome. Thanks." Click on the title and go read the post. I'll be here when you get back... Did you read it all? Wow right? I'll bet you didn't know a single person …
Generally there are two schools of thought when it comes to social media and marketing... 1. It's a numbers game. "Blast out the content to every platform, to as many people as you can - the more the better!" 2. Quality over Quantity. "Strive for better engagement, continuously." If you …
I was reading a post from my friend Ken Montville on his 'other' blog entitled, "Website Traffic And The Fire Hose" and it got me to thinking. In his post he starts out talking about Facebook Ads, links out to a post on using the 'dark post' strategy , moves a bit into SEO, and then finishes …
