Social Media Marketing
Social Media is ego driven, you need to be the expert in your field.

It’s All About the Use of Keywords

Connect with right search keywords
Edit your Social Media Profiles and elements with keywords
Track the results in Google Search Results

Connect with right search keywords
Bulk of search is done with 2 to 3 word phrases
Buying cycle

- shopping
- purchase

Longtail is the way according to Heather. “Build your longtail keywords first.”
(I disagree here longtail keywords are great they actually convert better because they are closer to the end of the buying cycle but since your site traffic is an important part of your SERPs I feel that getting traffic into your site at the earlier part of the buying cycle is critical to your organic search engine rankings for all your keywords. I am of the opinion that if you choose a few longtail keyword phrases and work on the more general keywords at the same time you will be way ahead of the curve. There is nothing wrong with picking the low hanging fruit but you should still water the tree.)

Edit your Social Media Profiles and elements with keywords
Google Narcism
Plurals and misspellings check your keywords
Track the results in keyword tools

(I use Nichebot for all of my keyword research. Nichebot allows you to use many of the keyword research tools from one place and saves you tons of time in the process.)

Social media integration ShareThis
(In the past I used ShareThis until my wife asked me one day what that little icon was. I found if I actually use the little icons I got more social response from my readers.)

Build your profiles

YouTube Profiles if you cut and paste from word you can get more text onto the page.

Use your keywords in all of your profiles.

Video testimonials the worse the quality the better they are.
Get video testimonials from your clients.

When I visited Heather’s site LutzeConsulting.com I was shocked to find she had an Alexa ranking of #967,038 while SEOPDX.com at this time has an Alexa ranking of #190,313. (The lower the better.)
