  1. SearchEngineLand asks if your websites are social media friendly - SearchEngineLand

  3. Today I want to move on to look at some general principles of building relationships with bloggers that I think are important - ProBlogger
  4. Whether you’re promoting a product, a program or just an idea, exuberance sells. One of the reason blogs can be so effective is that their writers tend to show more enthusiasm than polish. - CopyBlogger
  5. Akamai is out today with their first “State of the Internet” report. The report is well worth a read as it covers a variety of topics including: security, connection speeds, geography, network access, and Internet penetration. - CenterNetworks
  6. Mozilla are organizing a “Download Day” to promote Firefox 3.0 and set a Guinness World Record for the most downloaded software in 24 hours.  Are you in or out?  - Hardware 2.0

  9. Blog posts are great for getting quick ideas out to the marketplace, but when you create something in depth it is usually better if you place it on another part of your site rather than making it a blog post. - SEOBook
  10. This entry is about how to have the articles you submit to a social news site actually rank in the search engines. There is such a thing as a “power profile” that has nothing to do with frontpaging. - SlightlyShadySEO
