Copyblogger Kills Facebook, SEO Without Links, Build a Better Blog, Speedlink 44:2014

Hi everyone, hope you all had a great and productive week! We´ve all learned that having a social media presence is a must, if we want to extend our outreach and increase our exposure, specially if one of our goals is not to really solely on one source of traffic.

  • Interesting question. Thx for posting Rand’s whiteboard friday. I had missed that one. I think this approach could work when you have a strong established blog with high domain authority, esp if other people consistently mention their blog. It can also work when you have a high subscriber base.
