EP:009 – The Cotton Club Podcast

Just wrapped up another episode of The Cotton Club Podcast tonight w/ guest hosts Brant Collins and Robert Blake. The topic for discussion for this evenings show was SEO, or search engine optimization. I have actually gotten a lot of requests from people to do a show on this topic so hopefully we did a good enough job explaining our viewpoints without confusing everyone.

On the show we discuss some popular misconceptions regarding SEO as well as some standard practices that we all put into our clients projects for SEO. We also discussed which search engines you should worry about, and what market share the big SE’s have at this time.

Brant and Robert also shared some findings from a few of their own personal analytics reports to help give us some insight as to what they are seeing and we also touched on what impact social media saturation can have on a websites traffic. We also discussed quality versus quantity in terms of traffic analytics. If you own a website and would like to maximize your search engine rankings, you should definitely check out this episode.

To wrap up the show we each talked about our favorite iPhone apps of the week. Robert mentioned a game he has been playing called Angry Birds, Brant mentioned an augmented reality browser app called Layar that sounds pretty interesting, and I shared an app called Wind Meter that uses your phone to measure wind speed.

As always, thanks for listening and if you have any questions or topics you would like to see us address on the show be sure to drop me a line at: pleth.com and I will be happy to consider it.
