On the 17th February 2009 I will be flying to London from Tenerife (Spain) to listen to the Marketing Supremo Seth Godin. Seth will be talking about his latest book TRIBES, building and nurturing communities (Tribes).

experiences, keeping up with popular culture…

If you offer
high value unique content others will as you would expect talk about you online and even recommend you to their friends. Other websites will want to link to you, without you having to pay for the link. What does this all mean? Search Engines will rank you high in their search results and you will benefit from referral business

Far too often
SortedSites.com will set up and optimize a Flickr account for a client, someone in a department will be assigned to update it with photos but I think they are missing the whole point of
Social Media marketing for a business.
The real key to Social Media marketing for business is to contribute to the conve…

SEO used be an exclusive club, the few who knew how to follow the rules got the results in the search engines. Keyword density, inbound links, page titles...all the jargon known by a select few. This is set to change, SEO will no longer be a discipline held by those who know the tricks of getting good rankings. As Google evolves to deliver relevant search results they will strive to provide what users are really looking for.
New rules of marketing is about conversations and providing good relev…

Just read another good post from
Seth Godin, it costs nothing to be a little more friendly and personal when making or taking enquiries! At
Sorted Sites we get a number of email and call support enquiries every day, perhaps we could take some advice form Seth and try and be a little more personal and pleasant, especially in today's business environment!

A year ago we had clients almost everyday contacting us for a

I'm often talking to my clients about what is your social marker for your business and directors names or even staff names. I have joined a few Social Networking web sites, the idea being when someone searches Sorted Sites or John Beckley I can show what kind of sites should show up on the first page of google in order to get that credibility factor.
This is not a ego trip but more an exercise in internet marketing. When some of our clients are selling land for in Cape Verde for over a million…
