Spam is a massive problem anywhere. Twitter is one. Blogs have been one for a long time. Commenluv is a darn good solution in my opinion. Not only does it allow fellow bloggers to promote their site, but also encourage to add quality content on someone else blog, which in turn can rank and get more traffic. Lots hope that it spreads to other social medias. I bet it could make quite a difference.
Nice blog this one.

The great thing about finding an influencer to help you is that unlike using Twitter or Facebook, it is an evergreen method.

Everything that goes up will eventually go down. Maybe not in 2012, but Twitter is being suffocated by spam, and bots, and company accounts. I’ve stopped using it for a while now. Facebook is still holding on, but nothing can grow forever.

I still don’w get twitter or how you would get traffic from there when the use is minimal in our country and only the tech people use it? For us small countries only the biggest can provide traffic or make influence such as facebook that has really took off in the recent year or so. But alltogether when you target seo for traffic the facebook traffic is minimal to what google can bring in.

There are so many types of social media that many of us keep forgetting that a few influencers can help us much more than thousands of ordinary followers. Thanks for reminding us.

Twitter and other social media sites has great effect whether on rankings as searches are socially transforms or the increase in a website’s traffic. Great interview too, I guess most of the predictions will come true!

Social media site like Twitter have become a great measure for trends and trend setters. Marketers now have it alot easier than in years past where they had put together questioners and conduct focus groups to gage the public’s opinions. Infinigraph is agreat tool and the first in the line of many such applications. Marketing is evolving in ways never seen before.
