Friend, possibly more. Let's see what happens.
I am very social, and love to be out and about. I'd like to find someone that is as extroverted as I am, and enjoys fun times. My friends say that I am very outgoing and energetic. I love to be outside in the summer, working in my yard, gardening, or just hanging by the pool. Hobbies? Aspirations? Goals? and Taste in Music? They really want you to get deep on here don't they? Its always hard to talk about what makes me so different & unique from everyone else. I could say I am the best listener, never have a bad day, will never argue, and always agree with you, but, as perfect as I think I may be, I am still human, and I'm good but not that good. There is one thing that makes me unique and its that I am fluent in three languages....English, Sarcasm, and Hilarity. I am that person that laughs at the inappropriate things at inappropriate times. And even though sometimes I may have the mouth of a well educated sailor I do know when its time to be a lady. I'm just looking for my partner in crime, so let me know if I sound like someone you may want to get to know.
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Gardening/Landscaping , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Aerobics, Dancing, Other types of exercise, Swimming, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines, Yoga
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Cats, Dogs, Fish

For all the respect and praise that has been heaped on Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald over the years, here's one you probably never heard:
He can help his team win when he isn't even playing.
As crazy as that sounds, it's true. With Fitzgerald nursing a sore left hamstring Sunday against the visiting Detroit Lions, his playing time began to diminish. By the fourth quarter, he was done and watching from the sideline. ...

"SARACEN" - Empire Battle Class Ship. Main shock ship of the empire of people
In a manner of pictures from Karanak
In a manner of pictures from Karanak
I love it
Great looking design!
I know I'm missing the point by saying this, but I love the logo in the upper left.
Overall I like this design, but it kinda feels like a giant rectangle. I think if the mid sectional protrusions could be exaggurated slightly, it would improve the dynamism of the design.
That is quite an attractive ship.
great look!

The Lord in Judgment and Salvation
1Who is this who comes from Edom,
With dyed garments from Bozrah,
This One who is glorious in His apparel,
Traveling in the greatness of His strength?—
"I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save."
2Why #(Rev. 19:13is Your apparel red,
And Your garments like one who treads in the winepress?
3"I have #Lam. 1:15Rev. 14:1920Rev 19:15trodden the winepress alone,
And from the peoples no one was with Me.
For I have trodden them in My anger,
And trampled them in My fury;
Their blood is sprinkled upon My garments,
And I have stained all My robes.
4For the #Is. 34:8|NoBook| 35:4|NoBook| 61:2Jer. 51:6day of vengeance is in My heart,
And the year of My redeemed has come.
5#Is. 41:28|NoBook| 59:16I looked, but #(John 16:32)there was no one to help,
And I wondered
That there was no one to uphold;
Therefore My own #Ps. 98:1Is. 59:16arm brought salvation for Me;
And My own fury, it sustained Me.
6I have trodden down the peoples in My anger,
Made them drunk in My fury,
And brought down their strength to the earth."
God's Mercy Remembered
7I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the Lord
And the praises of the Lord,
According to all that the Lord has bestowed on us,
And the great goodness toward the house of Israel,
Which He has bestowed on them according to His mercies,
According to the multitude of His lovingkindnesses.
8For He said, "Surely they are My people,
Children who will not lie."
So He became their Savior.
9#Judg. 10:16In all their affliction He was afflicted,
#Ex. 14:19And the Angel of His Presence saved them;
#Deut. 7:7In His love and in His pity He redeemed them;
And #Ex. 19:4He bore them and carried them
All the days of old.
10But they #Ex. 15:24rebelled and #Num. 14:11Ps. 78:40Acts 7:511 Cor. 10:1–11grieved His Holy Spirit;
#Ex. 23:21Ps. 106:40So He turned Himself against them as an enemy,
And He fought against them.
11Then he #Ps. 106:4445remembered the days of old,
Moses and his people, saying:
"Where is He who #Ex. 14:30brought them up out of the sea
With the shepherd of His flock?
#Num. 11:172529Hag. 2:5Where is He who put His Holy Spirit within them,
12Who led them by the right hand of Moses,
#Ex. 15:6With His glorious arm,
#Ex. 14:2122Josh. 3:16Is. 11:15Jos 51:10Dividing the water before them
To make for Himself an everlasting name,
13#Ps. 106:9Who led them through the deep,
As a horse in the wilderness,
That they might not stumble?"
14As a beast goes down into the valley,
And the Spirit of the Lord causes him to rest,
So You lead Your people,
#2 Sam. 7:23To make Yourself a glorious name.
A Prayer of Penitence
15#Deut. 26:15Ps. 80:14Look down from heaven,
And see #Ps. 33:14from Your habitation, holy and glorious.
Where are Your zeal and Your strength,
The yearning #Jer. 31:20Hos. 11:8of Your heart and Your mercies toward me?
Are they restrained?
16#Deut. 32:6Doubtless You are our Father,
Though Abraham #Job 14:21was ignorant of us,
And Israel does not acknowledge us.
You, O Lord, are our Father;
Our Redeemer from Everlasting is Your name.
17O Lord, why have You #Is. 6:9John 12:40made us stray from Your ways,
And hardened our heart from Your fear?
Return for Your servants' sake,
The tribes of Your inheritance.
18#Deut. 7:6Your holy people have possessed it but a little while;
#Ps. 74:3–7Is. 64:11Our adversaries have trodden down Your sanctuary.
19We have become like those of old, over whom You never ruled,
Those who were never called by Your name.

Retail giant Wal-Mart Stores is contracting with Microsoft and Novell - Microsoft's preferred Linux partner - to build out the company's Web operations, according to a Wal-Mart executive. On Tuesday, Microsoft and Novell are expected to announce that Wal-Mart is the latest customer to purchase both Microsoft software and support certificates for Novell's Suse Linux Enterprise Server.
Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols (what's with the middle initial?) has reviewed the recently released OpenSUSE 10.2. "Sooner than anyone expected it, Novell's openSUSE community Linux distribution project has delivered a new version: openSUSE 10.2. As a dyed-in-the-wool SUSE user since S.u.S.E Linux 4.2 first appeared in 1996, I decided to immediately give this version a try."

1At that time did Herod the tetrarch hear the fame of Jesus,
2and said to his servants, `This is John the Baptist, he did rise from the dead, and because of this the mighty energies are working in him.'
3For Herod having laid hold on John, did bind him, and did put him in prison, because of Herodias his brother Philip's wife,
4for John was saying to him, `It is not lawful to thee to have her,'
5and, willing to kill him, he feared the multitude, because as a prophet they were holding him.
6But the birthday of Herod being kept, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and did please Herod,
7whereupon with an oath he professed to give her whatever she might ask.
8And she having been instigated by her mother--`Give me (says she) here upon a plate the head of John the Baptist;
9and the king was grieved, but because of the oaths and of those reclining with him, he commanded [it] to be given;
10and having sent, he beheaded John in the prison,
11and his head was brought upon a plate, and was given to the damsel, and she brought [it] nigh to her mother.
12And his disciples having come, took up the body, and buried it, and having come, they told Jesus,
13and Jesus having heard, withdrew thence in a boat to a desolate place by himself, and the multitudes having heard did follow him on land from the cities.
14And Jesus having come forth, saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion upon them, and did heal their infirm;
15and evening having come, his disciples came to him, saying, `The place is desolate, and the hour hath now past, let away the multitudes that, having gone to the villages, they may buy to themselves food.'
16And Jesus said to them, `They have no need to go away--give ye them to eat.'
17And they say to him, `We have not here except five loaves, and two fishes.'
18And he said, `Bring ye them to me hither.'
19And having commanded the multitudes to recline upon the grass, and having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, he did bless, and having broken, he gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes,
20and they did all eat, and were filled, and they took up what was over of the broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full;
21and those eating were about five thousand men, apart from women and children.
22And immediately Jesus constrained his disciples to go into the boat, and to go before him to the other side, till he might let away the multitudes;
23and having let away the multitudes, he went up to the mountain by himself to pray, and evening having come, he was there alone,
24and the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
25And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went away to them, walking upon the sea,
26and the disciples having seen him walking upon the sea, were troubled saying--`It is an apparition,' and from the fear they cried out;
27and immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, `Be of good courage, I am [he], be not afraid.'
28And Peter answering him said, `Sir, if it is thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters;'
29and he said, `Come;' and having gone down from the boat, Peter walked upon the waters to come unto Jesus,
30but seeing the wind vehement, he was afraid, and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, `Sir, save me.'
31And immediately Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, laid hold of him, and saith to him, `Little faith! for what didst thou waver?'
32and they having gone to the boat the wind lulled,
33and those in the boat having come, did bow to him, saying, `Truly--God's Son art thou.'
34And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret,
35and having recognized him, the men of that place sent forth to all that region round about, and they brought to him all who were ill,
36and were calling on him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment, and as many as did touch were saved.

48 Phenomenal SEO Guides, Tips & TacticsTuesday, February 24th, 2015
As Geddy Lee of Rush sang in the band's 1981 hit Tom Sawyer, "changes aren't permanent. But change is."
While he wasn't referring to SEO (which wouldn't really exist for another 16 years), the lyrics certainly apply.
Search engine algorithms are constantly being updated. SEO practices which may be very effective one day are useless the next, and then actually invite penalties, before being once again ignored.
So what's an SEO professional to do? Which tactics are most likely to stand the test of time–and which should be avoided? What needs to be done to recover from search engine penalties? What's most important–on-page optimization, link building, or technical SEO? What are the current best practices (and which aren't worth spending time on) in each area?
Find the answers to those questions and many more here in four dozen phenomenal SEO guides, tips and tricks from the past year.
Guides to SEO for Beginners
The Complete Beginner's Guide to SEO by Buffer
Before you turn up your nose at yet another beginner's guide to SEO, check this one out. The practice of SEO has (of course) changed considerably over the past few years, and Courtney Seiter recognizes those changes in this noteworthy guide explaining what exactly SEO is today, how search engines rank content, and what SEO professionals do now to optimize websites for search.
SEO for Dummies: Learn SEO in 10 Simple Steps by Social Media Today
SEO isn't easy, but according to Brian Hughes, it is simple. He walks through 10 basic steps for site optimization here, from getting the foundation right and doing keyword research through on-page content, meta tags, and link building ("Focus on link building through content marketing, blog writing, guest blogging, infographics, site directories (CAREFULLY), and other tools that allow you to leave online footprints leading back to your site").
Infographic: Search Ranking Made Simple by Sword and the Script
Frank Strong showcases an infographic from Neil Patel that provides a simple, widely accepted explanation of how Google's search algorithm (probably) works, including the importance of keyword domains, image optimization, domain age, social shares, title tags, keyword repetition, content length, and other factors.
15 Step SEO Checklist for 2015 by Social Media Today
Jason Parks serves up solid advice "to ensure that you are well prepared for 2015" in SEO terms. Among his 15 steps are title tags, on-page content (keywords used naturally, not stuffed), video, site audits, and otpimized photos ("use alt tags to help describe your image. Google image search only gets a half a percent of Google's overall traffic. But due to blended search results, images actually get a lot more traffic than that half a percent").
Expert SEO Guides, Tips and Tricks
Facebook's VP of Growth Gives You Tips on Growing Your Product by KISSmetrics
Alex Schultz, the VP of Growth at Facebook (and formerly marketing manager at eBay) "has no educational background in marketing, instead opting to get his masters in physics at University of Cambridge." In this fascinating post, he shares strategies for growing website traffic, the importance of customer retention, finding your "north star metrics," and SEO ("the single most important thing is to get valuable links from authoritative sites. Then you need to internally link effectively") among other topics.
How Long Does SEO Take To Start Working? by Forbes
Joshua Steimle writes that the answer to the tragically common question "How long will it take me to get ranked #1 for my keywords?" is not simple, "because the question itself is misguided." SEO has changed, with searchers now making much greater use of longer phrase and natural language search (driven in part by the use of Siri and other voice-based tools). He goes on to state that it takes roughly four to six months for SEO efforts to start showing results, but to "bear in mind this is when you start seeing results, and SEO results grow over time."
18 Online Marketing Priorities for 2015: Advice and Predictions for the Year Ahead by RKG Blog
Lauren Polinsky summarizes "the most important and interesting issues" which may face SEO professionals in 2015 and beyond, from multichannel reporting, local search, and mobile optimization, through monitoring brand citations ("brands will want to work on building more citations, linked or unlinked, from authoritative websites").
The SEO "Food" Pyramid by The Elumynt of William Harris
Creatively using the traditional "food pyramid" as a metaphor for SEO, William Harris places architecture (proper coding, optimized page titles, correct use of headers, an XML sitemap, etc.) at the base, with a healthy SEo program layering on smaller portions of content creation, promotion, UX, and social signals–topped off with (careful) link building.
Content Quality Score: Google's Best Kept Secret For Rankings by Mace Dynamics
**** 4 STARS (would be five if not for the popups)
Contending that "Every page indexed by Google has a content quality score assigned to it. This score directly influences how well a page ranks in Google. This however is not promoted by Google and few webmasters or SEOs are even aware of it," Terence Mace supplies an in-depth post covering quality signals, page purpose, "Your Money or Your Life (YMYL) pages…(which) are pages that can impact a person's future happiness, health or wealth," quality factors, EAT (expertise-authority-trust), and much more.
How To Use SEO To Boost Your Brand's YouTube Channel by MediaPost

Eric Enge talks to Bing's Duane Forrester about the keys to improving SEO rank on Bing. Link building is somewhat surprisingly at #4 of Forrester's five top areas. Content remains number one, though he warns, "The reality is that it's not up to you to decide if (your site has) quality content. The quality is determined by the interaction of the visitor to your website. If they're interacting with it, if they're finding value in it, then there's quality to it."
7 Things That Will Improve Your SEO More Than SSL by Search Engine Watch
Erin Everhart deconstructs Google's announcement late last summer than SSL may impact organic search rankings. She concludes that while SSL may indeed play a small role in SEO success, many other factors carry far more weight; she details seven of those here, including consistent URLs ("the link you use in your internal linking strategy, and the links you use in your XML Sitemap need to match"), relevant content, and CTA-friendly title tags (include "action words — Shop, Buy, Apply, etc — in…title tags").
SEO: Link Building, Keyword Research Becoming Most Challenging Tactics by MediaPost
Laurie Sullivan reports that enterprise marketers generally view SEO as critical to achieving their ojectives, but also challenging to be successful with.

Some 33% admit that quality content creation proves challenging, followed by 30% for social media integration; 28%, frequent blogging; 26%, frequent Web site updates; 22%, mobile search optimization; and 13%, local search optimization."
SEO Tutorial. The ultimate SEO 2.0 guide by Seolution
Albert Mora compiles one of the most valuable and comprehensive guides available for SEO in 2015. One warning though – at nearly 6,000 words (plus a lot of pictures), this is no quick read, not a post to skim. It's one to bookmark as a vital reference.

The Truth about Video SEO by acSellerant Studios
Bob Leonard transcribes his interview with video SEO expert Daniel Loeschen of LT Creative Media on how to search-optimize video content. Among Daniel's advice: "Videos that are meant to drive traffic to your site should ONLY be hosted on your site.

The right keywords and key phrases just happen to be in them").
The decay and fall of guest blogging for SEO by Matt Cutts
If you somehow missed this—or perhaps blocked it from your mind due to intense mental anguish—here's the post where Matt Cutts declared that guest-blogging is dead. Except that he really didn't; he only said that spammy guest-blogging purely for the purpose of generating backlinks is dead. Note this post generated nearly 700 comments. That's enormous power—whether used for good or evil.
Guest Blogging and SEO: Still a Match Made in Heaven by QuickSprout
Here is Neil Patel (again), this time reacting to Matt's post above, essentially clarifying what type of behavior he believes Google will actually punish, and how bloggers can still get value from guest-posting (e.g., "Focus on writing high quality content that actually educates the reader").

Expert Guides to Google Algorithm Updates (Panda, Penguin, Hummingbird and Pigeon)
5 SEO Trends From 2014: What We Learned by NewsCred
Jayson DeMers looks back at five key developments in Google search from 2014 (including the "diminished impact of Google+…Social media marketers are still using Google+, to some degree, but search engine marketers are no longer viewing it as the significant platform they once projected" and the Pigeon update) as well as forward, with predictions regarding key optimization factors in 2015 and beyond.
An Introduction To Google's Algorithm Updates by MediaPost
For those who aren't immersed in SEO on a daily basis but still need a general understanding of how the field is continually evolving, Jeremy Walker provides "a quick primer on the most notable algorithm updates of the past five years and why they're significant to marketers," from Panda (first launched in February 2011) through Pigeon in July 2014 (which primarily affected local search results).
Your Google Algorithm Cheat Sheet: Panda, Penguin, and Hummingbird by Moz
Marie Haynes provides a comprehensive summary of Google's three most recent major algorithm updates, explaining the focus of each as well as how to recover from related penalties. Panda, for example, focused on thin, duplicate, and low-quality content; recovering from a Panda hit requires "removing thin and duplicate content" and then waiting "sometimes take several months for Google to revisit all of your pages and recognize the changes that you have made."
5 Reasons a Site Hit by Google Penguin Won't Recover by Search Engine Watch
Writing that "When Google launched the Penguin algorithm April 24, 2012, many sites who had relied strongly on low-quality link building were severely affected" and had difficulty recovering their former levels of search traffic, Marie Haynes (again) digs into a handful of common reasons for slow-or-no recovery, such as improper disavowing: "In almost every case, if you're going to disavow a link, disavow it on the domain level."

Expert Guides to Semantic Markup, Schema.org and the Google Knowledge Graph
6 Ways to Make Your Search Results Shine by Search Engine Watch
P.J. Fusco says "your content can leap off page-one results – if you are willing to invest a little time learning how to understand" the Google Knowledge Graph and how to use Schema.org structured markup. Fortunately, she writes, "adding structured markup is particularly easy" using Google Structured Data Markup Helper or WordPress plugins.
5 options for semantic markup to improve SEO by Smart Insights
For those on the technical side of SEO, Yusuf Bhana details "useful semantic HTML elements for SEO" including authorship, local business schema, product details ("Ecommerce businesses should consider product mark-up to incorporate product data such as colour, manufacturer, weight, height and price"), and breadcrumbs, with examples of each.
How Rich Snippets Add Spice to Your Online Content's Search Results by Content Marketing Institute
Amanda DiSilvestro demonstrates how rich snippets can enhance a site's appearance in search results, and how to get started with the most popular types of rich snippets including authorship and video: "When I want to use a video rich snippet, I use this link and enter in the URL or YouTube ID of my video. It automatically generates a source code for me to use, so I don't need to know much about coding."
Updates to SEO by MediaPost
Lauren Kade discusses how the Google Knowledge Graph works, what rich snippets are and how to use them, and "how to add (rich snippet) markup yourself using the data highlighter feature in Google Webmaster Tools" to make your site's organic search listings look better.
How To Rank Above 25 In Search Queries by MediaPost
Laurie Sullivan (again) reports that "The Schema.org markup code aims to help Web sites rank better in search results, but only 36.6% of Google's search results contain at least one Schema.org rich snippet and just 0.3% of the 50 million domains analyzed by Searchmetrics make use of Google's Schema tools." Consumer-oriented sites in particular can increase their probability of ranking higher by incorporating Schema markup language.
Google Sends Manual Penalty for "Spammy Structured Markup" by TrueLogic Online Solutions
Elrica Gosiengfiao reports that Google is "cracking down on rich snippet spam more actively," exactly what this means, and how web developers can avoid problems of this type with Google; for example, follow Google's rich snippet guidelines and "make sure the markups used are correct and use Google's structured data testing tool to preview your snippets."
31 Expert Guides to Maximizing Online Brand Visibility – WPOTuesday, April 29th, 2014
Given all of the changes Google has made affecting organic ranking factors (asking webmasters to disavow low-quality links, reducing the value of guest blogging, ignoring links in press releases, etc.), the practice of SEO—optimizing owned content for search—is no longer sufficient for maximizing a brand's online visibility.
This is not to say "SEO is dead" or that it no longer has value, only that it can no longer stand on its own. It needs to be part of a larger, coordinated strategy encompassing owned, earned and paid media: web presence optimization (WPO).
The original WPO model focused on content-sharing to maximize organic brand visibility; as the WPO framework evolved, it incorporated paid and industry (e.g., event sponsorships, community outreach, analyst coverage, trade association membership) components.
Today's WPO model emphasizes the importance of fusing a solid content strategy with a comprehensive online distribution strategy in order to maximize brand visibility and credibility.
Yet despite the analytical and strategic power of the model, WPO still largely remains the concept that everyone talks about, but no one names. It's as if sportswriters constantly wrote about "contests in which opposing teams of five players attempt to shoot a round orange ball through a hoop with a net attached" instead of simply saying "basketball." As indicated by the posts from Search Engine Watch and All Twitter highlighted below, that is starting to change, but only just.
How can social, PR, SEO, and online advertising efforts be coordinated to maximize brand visibility? How can paid, owned, and earned media be harmonized to achieve business goals? How can paid and organic content promotion channels be used together most effectively? What role does email play in extending online visibility?
Find the answers to those questions and many more here in 31 of the best blog posts and articles about WPO (even if they don't call it that) of the past year.
Beyond Search & Social: Online Marketing in 2014 by Search Engine Journal
Marcela De Vivo covers a great deal of ground in this thought-provoking and wide-ranging post, from the impact of social signals on organic ranking to earning (vs. building) links, measuring key performance indicators (KPIs) based on your goals (e.g., "If your goal is organic visibility, your KPI's will be based on increasing your rankings and organic traffic"), and the debate around paid, earned and owned media: all critical consideraations in a WPO strategy.
Convergence: Merging Disciplines Between PR and Marketing by InNetwork
Hessie Jones contends that while marketing and PR have traditionally been separate disciplines, due to social media, "these roles are converging in a big way," so today brands need "a combination of PR and Marketing to stay on top of the conversation, and be ready to develop compelling content to engage and build advocacy," and furthermore to pair "mainstream and digital media experts with creative specialists like copywriters, digital designers and video producers to uncover storytelling opportunities in real time, deliver critical business insights, engage influencers and customers and create the content that shapes news and conversations." Which is to day: they need to coordinate the efforts of everyone involved in maximizing a brand's online visibility and relevance.
How to build a robust content program by iMedia Connection
Writing that "Today, superb, consistent content best serves your customers and leads to increased loyalty and bottom-line results," Deborah Hanamura explores a baker's dozen considerations for content marketing strategy, including social, SEO, PPC ("Great Pay-Per-Click advertising requires great content. Create an impression versus multiple impressions"), and events—in other words, most of the key elements of WPO.
Integrated Marketing: The Magic Formula for Success by Blue Kite Marketing
Laura Click (correctly) asserts there is no "one singular tactic that will help you achieve results" in digital marketing, but rather that achieving the objective of being everywhere your prospect look online requires an integrated marketing approach coordinating efforts across:
- • content marketing;
- • media relations;
- • advertising;
- • search engine marketing (actually, a form of online advertising);
- • social media; and
- • email marketing.
Add SEO to the list above and you've got WPO.
Integrating POEM: The Rhyme and Reason of Harmonizing the New Media Mix by iMedia Connection
Aaron Dubois explores the strengths and weaknesses of paid, owned and earned media (POEM), and advises marketers, "Throughout the planning process, take a step back and look at your brand's overall marketing strategy. If the P, the O, and the E aren't working in conjunction with each other – with a consistent brand voice across all communications – then it's not likely you're going to get as much out of your campaign as you hope to." That's another way of saying: adopt WPO, which coordinates efforts across these these three types of exposure.
Creating a Multi-Channel Content Marketing Strategy by BlueGlass
Kevin Gibbons illustrates the POEM concept and recommends that marketers "have a fully integrated strategy, where everyone is involved towards having success across all of your owned, earned and paid media channels" in order to properly plan and execute to achieve online business goals (or in other words, adopt a WPO approach). He then provides further guidance regarding content creation, measurement, and audience targeting.
6 Reasons Social Media Is Critical To Your SEO by Convince with Convert
Jason Clegg offers "six reasons social media needs to be an important part of your website marketing and SEO strategy for years to come," such as that social media enables you to "crowd source" your link building; social links actually drive traffic to your website; and "Google hates link building." Though the post goes a bit over the top in spots ("link building as a direct SEO tactic is completely dead"—not quite true), Jason's overall points regarding the SEO value of social media are spot on.
The PR Strategies SEOs Haven't Learned by Siege Media
A helpful companion to the post above, Ross Hudgens here focuses on the value of PR for SEO: "Many PR companies still blast releases out to publishers that have no reason to receive them. Many SEO companies do the same with their outreach to bloggers. The best of both worlds will find the intersection, combine agility with empathy, and make for an extremely potent content marketing package."
Marketing Research Chart: Integrating email and search marketing tactics by MarketingSherpa
Daniel Burstein notes that the chart at right "highlights one of marketers' key challenges. They're doing a lot. Even the least used tactic — digital asset optimization — is being conducted by 45% of marketers." He then explains three ways that marketers can be more efficient by "SEO and email tasks to get more done in less time." This type of coordination between different types of content promotion efforts is also at the heart of WPO.
The Evolution of Content In A Big-Content World by MediaPost
Writing that "'big content' is the definition of what content marketing has become: unruly, amorphous, exponential and everywhere," Steve Kerho suggests that marketers should "think of big content as branded content that exists in multiple channels, across devices and…is no longer controlled solely by the brand." Indeed they should, and efforts should be coordinated across these different channels to optimize visibility and engagement while maintaining consistent brand messaging.
The Complete SMO / SEO Guide for Business & Brands in Social Media by REALSMO
Joshua Berg provides an indispensible and comprehensive guide to how social media and search work together; the principles of social media optimization, aka SMO ("Focus on the user and all elSEO will follow"–spot on); and the (possible) future of search.
The Aftermath Of SEO's Death This Summer by Forbes
Writing that Google's Penguin and Hummingbird algorithm updates "mean no more hat tricks, keyword stuffing, comment spamming, backlink image stuffing…Finally, Google uncovered the secret to blocking SEO tricks used to get customers on the infamous PAGE 1," Eris Poringer provides excellent guidance on implementing a "comprehensive plan" for maximizing online brand visibility, incorporating social media, email, content marketing, native advertising, and other tactics. This approach isn't SEM (paid search) though SEM is a key component of a wider WPO strategy.
Social Media Should Not Be A Stand Alone Brand Tactic by Brand Cottage
The smart and engaging Patricia Wilson lists seven reasons why social media should not be a stand-alone brand tactic (such as, "Social Media is very hard to scale on its own") and suggests that "social strategy works best as part of a larger integrated marketing and business plan." Couldn't agree more; it's a vital component of a WPO strategy.
The B2B Marketing Guide to Paid Content Distribution by B2B Digital Marketing
In this highly bookmark-worthy post, Eric Wittlake details almost two dozen options for paid content distribution, from advertising on the large social networks to content distribution services like Outbrain and Taboola to native advertising and sponsored posts on B2B publication sites. As long as you stick with reputable sites that keep up with Google's latest guidelines, these are great avenues for extending the reach of your content and increasing overall online brand visibility.
How to Amplify Your Content Strategy with Social Media Advertising by Content Marketing Institute
Observing that tweets have an average half-life of 18 minutes, Facebook posts have a half-life of 30 minutes, and keeping up with algorithmic changes in organic search is getting increasingly difficult, Dan Stasiewski recommends "creating an advertising flow to your content ecosystem." Excellent advice, though not either/or; successful content promotion requires coordinating all of the elements of WPO.
SEO And Other Web Marketing Techniques: Tools Or Tricks? by Forbes
Roger Kay comes down rather hard on content marketing and SEO ("a rather polite term for another way to game the system"), but writes that he likes "the concept of inbound marketing because it relies on product quality…at bottom, inbound will only work if the product is good. Effectively, the Internet is a fantastic channel to give an idea a chance to make it in the wild, but the virus only spreads if the content justifies the buzz." True, which is why content strategy forms the base of WPO. But as noted here previously, even the "most epic content will FAIL without content distribution," which is why coordinated sharing and promotion across channels is just as important as creating high-quality content to begin with.
When Keyword (not provided) is 100 Percent of Organic Referrals, What Should Marketers Do? – Whiteboard Tuesday by Moz
Rand Fishkin steps through a number of steps SEO practitioners can take to deal with the loss of organic keyword data from Google, such as using "keyword suggestion sources like Google Suggest, Ubersuggest, certainly AdWords's own volume data, SEMRush, etc. to see the keyword expansions related to your brand or the content that's very closely tied to your brand." Running AdWords ads and examining keyword performance is another option.
Time for a New Definition of SEO by Search Engine Watch
Writing that "digital marketing tactics such as email marketing, paid search and search retargeting have very clear, undisputed definitions. The definition of SEO, on the other hand, seems to be just as unclear as the practice itself," Krista LaRiviere suggests WPO (she actually uses the term) represents the evolution of SEO, and defines WPO as "an all-encompassing approach to optimizing an entire web presence for organic search including the website, social channels, blogs, articles and press releases." Her ideas clearly resonated, as the post garnered 50 comments.
The Web Presence Optimization Cycle [INFOGRAPHIC] by All Twitter
Allison Stadd showcases a helpful infographic designed to help marketers visualize "the steps to web presence optimization with the goal of helping you reach organic search success."
Getting less traffic from Google? Here's why it may not matter soon by Jim's Marketing Blog
Jim Connolly details three reasons marketers should diversify their efforts beyond just organic SEO, most importantly because "Google sends less traffic to sites than before…between August 2012 and March 2013, search traffic from Google nosedived an incredible 30%" to a collection of large publisher sites including The Huffington Post, The Daily Mail, Newsweek, Time, Sports Illustrated and Rolling Stone. It's not that search isn't still an important tactic, but that it's only one of several important elements in a brand's total online visibility (the focus of WPO).
Relying on organic SEO? You're losing customers! by Digital Growth
Building on the arguments in Jim Connolly's post above, Luke Chapman illustrates how ads and universal search elements continue to push organic listings further down on the typical search results page, making even a #1 organic ranking less valuable than it used to be. To combat this, he recommends using social media, email, PR, blogging and blog commenting, and industry/community marketing—pretty much the range of WPO elements. And investing in SEM also helps maintain search visibility.
Is SEO Dead — Or Decentralized? by MediaPost
Musing about the decline of traditional SEO and the rise of social media optimization and paid search, Ryan DeShazer concludes that "In today's marketing communications organization, everyone is an SEO…creative teams (now) include content discoverability and SEO into their work streams; technologists are building sites and apps compliant with known onsite SEO best practices; and UX specialists are including keyword research before developing user personas and journeys." Hmm, coordinating the efforts of multiple disciplines in order to optimize web visibility…sounds familiar.
The 4 SEO Trends Every Marketer Needs to Know by iMedia Connection
Tony Quin reveals what he believes are four key trends in SEO that marketers need to understand, the most relevant of which for WPO is number four, "Traditional marketing tactics will boost digital marketing initiatives…Press releases, for example, provide branded mentions and links that will increase the authority of your website while also increasing exposure. Despite what some might say, email is still extremely effective in creating opportunities for awareness and sharing." Creating compelling content is vital, but that content then needs to be shared using social media alongside "traditional marketing tactics."
Inbound Marketing: 15 tactics to help you earn attention organically by MarketingSherpa
Daniel Burstein (again) serves up a list of "quantitative metrics, case studies, how-to articles and other resources to help you improve your own inbound marketing efforts by learning more about how your peers are effectively using these tactics," including SEO, PPC, email, events, PR, blogging, content marketing, and other aspects of WPO.
How to optimize your emails for search by iMedia Connection
Noting "It might sound like a strange idea to optimize your emails for search engines, but SEO is a skill that email marketers better start working on," Michael Linthorst explores the ins and outs of Gmail Field Trial, an "experiment in which Google includes a user's Gmail inbox in his or her search results." Engagement, content, and relevancy are keys to "email SEO"—and a solid approach to email marketing regardless.
Social Search Engine Marketing Throws Search Experts A Lifeline by MediaPost
Laurie Sullivan reports on recent research showing that "Social signals continue to make their way into search results—making social search engine optimization the next major trend in organic listing. Enterprise SEO requires a search across traditional techniques and social media channels." This integration is, of course, at the heart of WPO.
Why Your Online Marketing Department Is All Screwed Up by ClickZ
Andrew Delamarter describes how marketing departments can, and must, sop operating in "silos" and coordinate efforts across paid, earned, and owned media: "Now is the time to stop thinking SEO, media, content marketing, web analytics, and Facebook posts and start thinking holistically about inbound marketing that brings it all together."
Must evolve to:
If you build it, they will come — maybe by iMedia Connection
The brilliant and prolific Rebecca Lieb believes "The winners in content marketing will create not just quality content, but distribution strategies that will get that content 'out there'" (i.e., WPO). SEO, PR, advertising, and social all have their role to play, but so do media companies.

The New SEO: Search Marketing Integration by Search Engine Watch
Brad Miller writes that while SEO isn't dead, "the days of SEO as a distinct, independent discipline are certainly numbered. SEO is fast evolving into a more creative, diverse, and challenging profession." He uses the term "search marketing integration" to describe the coordination of activities across social search, branding, PR, SEM, and others areas in order to integrate all your marketing efforts into "into one single, agile, engaging strategy." That would be WPO.
2013 – Break the (Digital) Marketing Silos by The RKG Blog
As noted above in the introduction to this post, WPO is about coordinating the efforts of everyone on your team involved in content creation or digital marketing. As Todd McDonald writes here, "Imagine the insights available to those who successfully bring together PR, social, email, PPC, SEO, and other channels! Each one can feed the next, providing ever-deepening levels of data and connections that will drive data-driven strategic marketing decisions. SEO will be a cog in this machine and it will need the machine to work well in order to functional optimally." He challenges marketers to smash their internal silos—a vital step (as noted above) in WPO, even if he doesn't call it that.
27 More Remarkable SEO Guides, Tips and TacticsTuesday, February 11th, 2014
As noted in part one of the best SEO posts roundup for last year, with all the significant changes announced by Google in the past 12 months (at least six, detailed in a pair of posts below), "These are indeed "interesting times" for SEO professionals, with rapid and wide-ranging changes to the search landscape being announced at an accelerating pace."
The general consensus is that the practice of SEO is becoming more strategic, less tactical; more content-driven, less technical. The winners should be organizations that focus on providing targeted, relevant, high-quality content, as well as their prospective customers; with the (little lamented) losers being the spammers, manipulators and black-hat SEO types.
What techniques still work in the new world of SEO? Which need to be discarded? What new tactics and ranking factors are most vital to understand? How should SEO professionals strategically align frameworks for maximizing online visibility and business results?

Noting that in any field, "once a myth has been established it hard to get rid off," Joop Rijk debunks nine SEO-related myths including duplicate content penalties ("Duplicate content is not considered spam and sites do not get penalized for duplicate content.

Search Engine Click Through Rate Optimization (+Infographic) by Marketing from the Front
Brent Carnduff reports on some eye-opening research findings in this post which reminds one of a Geico commercial: Did you know that the top four organic search results get 83% of all clicks? Of course, everyone knows that. Okay, but did you know that "As searcher intent becomes more detailed or specific (long tail term), the click distribution across the first page organic listings begins to even out"? That makes, as Brent explains, CTR optimization as important as SEO.

They want inbound marketers and business owners to shift their primary focus away from Google and manipulative link and content schemes and concentrate this energy on each business' target market and to create the best products, services, and content possible."

Google Panda And SEO: Updated Tips For Online Marketers by MediaPost
Brian Rauschenbach offers half a dozen practical tips for SEO in the post-Panda world, among them: "Ensure that links to your site are natural. Panda likes links from quality sources but will come down hard on you (and may even exclude you from Google's search results) if your site is inundated with overly targeted links, especially if they are sponsored…it's clear that Google is looking to essentially reward companies and marketers who make a concerted effort to populate their sites with authoritative, useful, and shareable content."
Best Guides to SEO for Hummingbird
5 Ways To Unlock The Benefits Of Semantic Search by Search Engine Land
Explaining that semantic search is intended to make search results "more personal, more engaging, more interactive and more predictive," Barbara Starr offers guidance on how to unlock its benefits, from optimizing content based on user intent rather than keywords (based on Google patents in this area) to fully leveraging Google+ and implementing appropriate semantic markup.
Hummingbird Unleashed by Moz

Contending that "The new Hummingbird algorithm will revolutionize the way B2B companies market their sites in search," Harrison Jones explains how Hummingbird works, how that is likely to affect search rankings and traffic for b2b websites, and how those sites can capitalize on the algorithm change to draw more–and more relevant–traffic from search engines.
Google Hummingbird Requires Brands To Step Up Content Development by MediaPost
Somewhat echoing the points made in the post above, Laurie Sullivan writes that "Search engine marketers need to put aside attempts to raise their brand's Web site to the top of first-page query rankings through old-fashioned optimization techniques and focus on content," and more specifically, that they should "Use objects, images, and videos, and with the correct semantic structure the content will get grabbed" by the search engines.
Six Expert Guides to Dealing with Keyword (not provided)Thursday, January 2nd, 2014
In late 2011, Google began redirecting users who were signed into their Google accounts to the encrypted (https) version of the search engine, beginning the keyword (not provided) era. At the time, Matt Cutts assured everyone that the change would only affect single-digit percentages of all organic search traffic reporting.
The reality was, of course, much different. Marketers, webmasters and SEO professionals quickly saw the share of (not provided) keywords rise to the 20%, 30%, even 40% ranges. Then, on September 23, 2013, Google dropped the hammer, encrypting all search traffic and thus hiding keyword referral data for all of its organic search traffic.
The initial response of digital marketing professionals was…panic. Even Rand Fishkin, while not quit declaring the death of search engine optimization, called keyword (not provided) the first existential threat to SEO.
Google's move did not, of course, "kill" SEO, but it did force marketers to adopt a broader framework to optimize overall web presence. And it forced SEO and analytics professionals to get more creative in how they analyzed and assessed organic search keyword data. Here are half a dozen of the best guides to measuring organic search phrase results in a keyword (not provided) world.

It's a great deal to absorb, but worth reading and bookmarking.
Google Webmaster Tools Search Query Data is Accurate (and Valuable) by Search Engine Watch
Yes, Google Webmaster Tools (WMT) data has become more valuable in the wake of the universal (not provided) issue, but no, it certainly isn't perfect. Ben Goodsell does an exemplary job here explaining the value of GMT data for SEO analytics, the limitations of the data, and a "secret" workaround to get a bit more detail out of WMT reports.
(Not Provided) Changes the SEO Landscape by iMedia Connection

Instead, what we have currently is a very complicated set of many different methods to uncover little gaps in insights left by (not provided)."
