Bloggers who are compensated can use the “nofollow&# tag within their outbound links to keep those links from being tagged by Google as paid content. The nofollow may well make that harder, but then again, if you are under contract I think it’s the buyer’s responsibility to track the postings of the paid blogger.

A client I worked with last year received a massive boost in search traffic when we removed their brand name from title tags on their blog posts. Focus On a Keyphrase Unless you’re very into branding, it’s a good idea to try to optimise your site around a keyphrase that can send you search traffic.

Tweet Spinner also has a “nofollow&# user list that will algorithmically never follow users who meet certain criteria. Moreover, you can also nofollow people based on their tweets. Tweet Spinner would make a good addition to an agency or big brand needing to have a little more control over Twitter. Happy Holidays!

The annotations include things like a thumbnail image or an indication that someone the user is connected to (be that a person or a brand) has shared or liked the page. Unfortunately many social media sites add a “nofollow” attribute to any links within user generated content.

Branding – Research suggests it takes someone eight views of a brand name or logo to have it stored in memory. On the web, your name and your blog are your brand, and guest blogging helps you get them out there in your industry. This massively pushed my brand around the niche and put my website on the map.
