For example, when you move recommendations to the top to highlight the feedback from Bill Gates, all of your other recommendations move, too, which might make it difficult for someone to scroll down to find your skills and experience. Take a peek at the LinkedIn video and let me know in the comments what you think of this new feature.

The site does not resolve on smart-phone browsers, and if they sell products online, their e-commerce platform has no social functionality (no review functionality, no commenting functionality, etc). The design and UI looks like it’s circa 1997. Still not sure how to take action on this rule of thumb?

For example, if a person is susceptible to a drive by sale from salesperson A… then if salesperson A puts on a mask to be salesperson C,D,E, and F with different products, they will likely have sales as well. Otoh drive by sales do occur, and they do so at a statistically significant number to make it worthwhile to do so.

For example, if you wanted to research historical information, like to learn what year World War 2 ended; or if you wanted to find out how many games your favorite professional team won last year, a traditional search engine will get you this information. A real time search engine should not be used for the majority of your searches.

Those comments on your blog are great way to hear the feedback and to improve your blog constantly. Someone made a comment to me that this blogger writes simply to look smarter than others but doesn’t have anything valuable to say — that’s the kind of reputation this type of complex writing actually gives off!

I guess it’s assumed in social spaces that when s/he initiates the friend request, you can comment on anything on their Facebook wall or tweet back at them about something personal or even comment on a photo. Unless the comments are not appropriate, no offense should be taken at all by the other person.

They don’t read 20 blog posts and comments. I blog and comment too, however; 1. Some advice I give to my Social Media students is to be careful following the example of some large brands who are relatively new to Social Media but seem to be successful. Small businesses can’t always follow by example, unfortunately.

In the example I used above we saw that 50% of the front page of Google were links to my social media profiles. SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization, and even though people keep saying it’s dead or dying and it’s all because of social media, but the absolute opposite is true. How does social media affect SEO?
