Question about influencers
-
Hello,
Can a twitter, facebook, linkedin or instagram business page be considered an influencer
Or
Does an influencer need to absolutely be a person ?
Thank you,

This is a pretty good question, and I admit I never thought about it. Anyway, thanks for the answers.

Really informative thread. Thank you so much for sharing this information with me.

An influencer can absolutely be a travel guide or comparable company rather than only an individual. We run and operate Totally Boise as this purpose, to highlight great things to do and places to see in Boise, for tourists and local. Just keep in mind, influencers should be focused on providing the highest quality content for your query. Dont be a pushy inlfuencer selling goods and services that are not needed. Be a value, as Im sure your plan is to be.

Good to hear that as long as there is someone behind the account that is an influencer. It confirms to me that a company can be an influencer. Good to hear ! Thank you,

Hello there! Influencer marketing can be used in many different ways today. I think an easy way to look at it is... "who are the people or accounts that my target customer/persona etc. are following, sharing content, and engaging with the most and how can I build relationships with these people?" By building relationships with and engaging with these "influencers" you have the opportunity to broaden your reach and hopefully they will share your messages to their followers who likely fit your target market. Another benefit to having "influencers" share your content is that oftentimes people will listen more intentionally to people they know and trust. That's why if an influencer is sharing your content and their following is in your target market you are trying to reach, then it is a great way to get your message in front of the right people!
Back to your original question, I agree with Meisha. As long as there is a person behind the account and that account is being followed by your target audience, it might make for a great influencer partnership!
Hope this helps!

Hi there. Did you have a specific page/example in mind? Generally, when I think of an 'influencer', I think of an individual person. I can see the lines being blurred by parody or anonymous accounts where the person running the show isn't public, but at the end of the day, a person is behind the content and interactions.

Unpublishing content question
Hi there, a disgruntled ex-employee requested that my company (a large publisher) unpublish a large number of at this point fairly dated articles. We're going to honor his request. The traffic numbers to these articles aren't significant, but I wanted to understand the SEO ramifications. Two questions: 1. These articles in sum account for 0.51% of site traffic. Will removing them outright cut off just that chunk of traffic? Or will it also affect search rankings for all of our remaining articles? 2. How should we handle unpublished URLs? Is it better to redirect the user to our homepage or a friendly, recirculation-oriented 404?

Moving to new domain - Social and Branding Questions?
Hi, We are moving to a new domain because our rankings drastically dropped and we want to "start over". For example - If my company is called Joes Computers and the domain was JoesComputers.com and the new domain which will hold our e-commerce website will be completely different for example - BestComputers.com - which do I brand? Which do I put as suffix in all titles?

COOL TITLE FOR PRODUCTS | Best Computers
or
COOL TITLE FOR PRODUCTS | Joes Computers Which name do I take for social profiles? Company or Domain?
(We currently have for the company since it was the same). Please note that our company name is already a little bit known... and therefore inside the website it will be labeled in Logos etc. We would also state "Best Computers by Joes Computers" (as if it is a sub brand or daughter company). Thanks,0 -
Title Question
We have registered an additional site selling items that are different to what we sell now, as an example we have registered a site call www.apple-pears.uk, another company has registered the name applesandpears.co.uk with the view to trying to sell the domain name, would we be OK to call our site Apple and Pears as a title even though our website is www.apple-pears.co.uk.

Google Places Zoom level question
One of my clients (a dealership) has 2 google places listings. One for their actual dealership and one for their parts and service dept (they are separate buildings 5-10 mins away from each other). When you search for their name "Westchester Toyota" both in web and maps the only result is for the parts and service building. Both listings are active and verified (and both are in good standings). The weirder part is that if you take that same search in maps "Westchester Toyota" zoom out a few levels and search again Boom both listings appear... Not only that but the main stores listing is places as listing A. I'm wondering if anyone has ever had this issue and has a solution? I believe on the initial search Google is deeming the parts and service listing as the dominant listing (which is why it zooms in so far) but then Google throws me for a loop making the real listing the "A" when you zoom out. Note: The main listing is closer to Westchester, NY. Any insight is appreciated!

Duplicate Content Question
I have a question about duplicate content. We have our mission statement on our home page, a few paragraphs. When I searched Copyscape the only pages that came back were sites like Google Plus, Manta, Linkedin, AngieLists ect. All of them have the same exact copy. Would this be something that is hurting us for duplicate content??

It is our mission statement so we kind of want to be the same across those sites. Any input would be great. Thanks, Scott0 -

A question on what you should always track on your users
For any website it obviously useful to know about as much of your user behaviour as possible - and part of that involves past user behaviour. This is generally done by cookies and would involve things like: Last Visit Date Number of Site Visits Number of pages viewed etc etc I'm trying to build up a list for my developers so they are trackign the information that, although may not be explicetly useful now, but may be useful for future functionality. So does anyone have a list of the key things you should always track?
