In time, that became an idea clearing house – a sort of blog behind the blog, where topics and ideas were shared on
things to blog about.

White background? Arial font? Photoshop-ed text as a header? We’ve seen these traits a million times before. They aren’t going to set you apart. You need something more.

…most businesses are not taking part in the conversation and they don’t understand the new rules of communicating online.

…creating linkbait in the SEO social media space is like joining in an incestuous circle jerking link orgy. While there is some content that has value, 95% of the work is meaningless for any thing other than self satisfaction.
