I’ve started writing regularly on all things web strategy again over at Web Strategy Workshop. Today we created a quick Bing Website Optimization Guide as well as offered 5 Bing SEO tips.
Why? Well as the data junkies we are at 48Web we saw a trend in traffic – specifically coming from Bing – and decided to take measures to optimize traffic generation from it. These trends include a jump in organic search traffic and high rankings on targeted keywords.
Afterall – it’s currently the #13 most visited site on the web. People are using Bing. It’s okay – I was hoping to ignore it too.

Over at the Web Strategy Blog we covered two WordPress ReTweet plugins today. This is a great way to drive Twitter traffic to your WordPress blog.
We cover TweetMeme’s ReTweet Plugin and BackType TweetCounter plugin.
In case you are wondering – we are using TweetMeme’s button here and BackType’s button over at Web Strategy Workshop. Which is better? We are leaning towards BackTypes…

I recently decided to try MySpace myAds platform for a targeted advertising campaign. I also wanted to compare click through and conversion rates with Facebook. And with a $75 MySpace MyAds coupon from ShoeMoney it was a no brainer. Who doesn’t like free advertising?
Well after waiting approximately 6 days for my ad to go through the approval process – my ad was declined.
The advertisement in your campaign for account abrudtkuhl was reviewed to ensure that it complies with our editorial guidelines. We would like you to know that your ad was not accepted for the following reason: No twitter ads.
There are two problems here – the amount of time it took to get the ad approved (6 days – seriously?) and the unknown editorial guidelines that caused my ad to get rejected.
So far – disappointed with the MyAds platform.
