The second quarter of 2012 is already well on its way. With Google topping all SEO news charts, one can safely predict that there are going to be dynamic changes in the industry.

Experts are predicting a major shift of focus from just Link Building to brand link building strategies. Viral Content and Social Media are also on the search engines’ radar.

Change is a harbinger of a new world order; this is true for all SEO campaigns. The perception that SEO is all about link building will not stand in good stead, just as it did not previously.

I recently published an interview with Andrew Rondeau on my blog. If you read that interview you would notice that one point he consistently hammered on was this,

That’s the quickest way to be successful. Find a mentor who has a reputation for being excellent and ‘suck them dry’ of all their info and knowledge.

I definitely have to agree with him; you need someone who has tested the waters and can differentiate between a hoax and the real deal. If you prefer learning all the details by trial and error, you can still beat the mark you set for yourself but at the expense of time.

Strangely enough, sometimes the best way to see whether your email marketing campaign is doing well or not is to do some internal testing. Just for a moment, you can disregard what your metrics and analytics tell you and put the changes you want to make out to your subscribers directly.

But, first, let’s figure out how to set up testing so that it provides you with honest-to-goodness results.

  1. Pull 100 random email addresses from your list
  2. Divide them into two separate groups
  3. Only test one change at a time
  4. Set one group as the control (what you’re already doing) and the other as the change
  5. Monitor the results
  6. Request feedback through directed surveys about which your subscribers prefer

We’re going to look at 4 of the most common places that marketers like to update in their emails and walk you through how to do it.

Who is it that decides who will be the most popular bloggers and who will be left banging their head against the keyboard?

You might think that it is the “people,” or you might even think that Google and the other search engines are the ones who decide who the most popular bloggers will be.  Although the search engines and the people do hold a lot of influence, most bloggers who have worked their way up to the Rockstar level got there in a way that might come as a surprise.

Most great bloggers got appointed to their positions of fame by other bloggers, namely the inner circle of bloggers for that niche.

Now, I know that you may not be interested in returning to the high-school social scene where everything was about being more popular.  The pursuit of being popular and accepted by “the group” mandated all types of conformities.
