ProBlogger: What is Your Posting Rhythm to Social Media?

What is Your Posting Rhythm to Social Media? Posted: 06 Jun 2013 02:09 AM PDT Last week I was on a panel discussing social media at a conference here in Australia and a question from the floor asked about how often is ideal to post to Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest? I was fascinated to hear the range of answers we gave as panelists and I thought it might be a good discussion to have here on ProBlogger. What frequency do you publish to the social networks that you’re active on? I’ll kick things off: Facebook Pages: On the dPS Facebook page I try to update 3-4 times a day with posts spread out over a 24 hour cycle. I find if I do it too much more regularly that the posts don’t get as much engagement. Twitter: On my ProBlogger Twitter account I find I can post at a higher frequency on Twitter as tweets tend to have a shorter life. Having said that most of my tweets are done live when I have something to say (and time to tweet). Tweets go up automatically when I post a new post here on the blog or when a new job goes up on the Job Boards and I’ll often share another link to a blog post 12 or so hours later. The rest of my tweets are more personal/conversational and not scheduled. Pinterest: on the dPS Pinterest account I’ve employed Jade to update our board. Google+: My Google+ account is something I don’t update with great frequency. I use it more when I want to test an idea that I’m thinking through, ask a question or share something I’m excited about. As a result there are days when I might post 2-3 times and then it might be 2-3 days before I post again! My posts there can be as short as a link or up to 2000 words! LinkedIn: I’m a dismal failure on LinkedIn. Status updates are largely new posts on the blog and automated. I feel like I could improve a lot in this area. What about you? What’s your posting rhythm on to social media? Do you update them all the same or have different strategies for each one?

I love SEO contests (look at this new one) Posted: 06 Jun 2013 05:21 AM PDT Those of you who have been following me for years know that I used to love to compete in SEO contests.  For those not familiar basically someone picks an obscure term and whoever can rank for it at the end wins cash.  I have won 2 out of the 5 and over 6k in cash.  There has not been a SEO contest in many many years… But there is now and this one is SUPER LEGIT on its prizes. A Porsche for #1,  10k for #2.  Never been prizes like this. So whats the catch?  Simple the company putting up the cash for this is looking to hire the worlds best SEOs.  So the top guys will have the opportunity to work for a very very large company as a employee or agency. This isn't some nonsensical, ego bait SEO contest.  This is a contest for real SEOs looking to earn real prizes while beating their competition. The dominant SEO will drive away with a Porsche Carrera S. Second prize is $10,000 US. Plus, there's a payment of $10,000 for anyone who refers the winning entrant. Some basic rules and conditions will be placed on the contest. Besides that, the more aggressive you push, the better. Here is how the contest breaks down. Round 1: The objective and goal of the first round is to accumulate points for a keyword on Google.co.uk. This keyword will be provided after registration ends. The first round begins on 17 June 2013 and ends on 31 July 2013. Round 2: The details for the second and final round will be revealed to the qualifying contestants from the first round. Terms & Conditions The registration date of the domain used in the first round of this challenge cannot be older than five days prior to the end date of the registration. The ownership of the domain has to be verified. No hacked domains/parasite sites, etc. are allowed. No illegal activity including, but not limited to hacking, DDoSing, etc. is allowed. There is no limit in terms of how many websites the contestant can register. Only the top contestants, who are measured as per a point system, will pursue into the final round. The details for the final round will only be revealed at the end of the first round and only to the qualifying contestants. All rules and contest details can be found at BlackHatChallenge.com. This prize pool is sure to attract the best and the brightest SEOs in the world, so get registered, start planning, and be ready to pull the trigger on June 17th.
