<br />
I was very excited to hear about the new restaurant opening here in my hometown of Coral Springs, Florida. The menu looked very promising and being the fat person that loves all things american and fried I had to stop by for my experience. If you like check them out here.<br />
<br />
I decided to go with my good friend Brandon as him and I go to different spots all the time. I told him about the place and the menu and to try a various amount of foods to give the place a chance.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Let the Party Begin</h3>
<br />
Or so we thought.... we were confused of the concept of getting up to get our own drinks. We thought the concept was interesting but almost made us feel like we were in a Chipoltle concept..... Not to say this was a horrible or the main reason we didn't get to enjoy our experience, we were just confused on the concept. So we got our drinks and began to first open up with an appetizer.<br />
<br />
We ordered the Buffalo Pita Nachos. Again the concept seem interesting having fried chicken, buffalo ranch sauce, blue cheese, and pita chips. We first noticed how quick the turn around was and was concerned and impressed. We both said, "cheers" and began our first bite.... and probably last.<br />
<br />
The food was needless to say awful. I mean horrible. The blue cheese was raw, sauce was cold, I could go on. How about the fact the pita chips weren't even crispy and tasted doughy still. We immediately decided that it can only get better - right?<br />
<br />
We decided not to complain as we wanted to get the full experience possible to see how the rest would go. The thing that confused us was it wasn't busy at all on a weekday at noon. Which gave us a red flag as well. So let's go on to the entree.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Entree Time</h3>
<br />
Brandon ordered the B-T Avacodo and I did the Super Grilled Cheese to play it on the safe side. Both of us got the chips. Our food again came pretty quickly, when we finished we both described the good and bad of each.<br />
<br />
<b>The good</b> - chips were crispy and felt fresh. The grilled cheese was super cheesy and had various flavors. Avocado on the B-T was fresh and tasted good.<br />
<br />
<b>The BAD</b> - Oh man, how to go on? Well certain part of the cheese, mainly the smoked mozzarella was cold and chunky, You would think a grilled cheese would be properly temperature to melt. The bread itself was just not impressive and probably the concept of it being a waffle isn't the best.... But that's just a personal preference and nothing against the food. Brandon explained the sandwich was just too bland and mainly overflowed with the avocado. I wish I could get more into detail but unfortunately I even myself can save the $11 price and just make it at home.... What a joke.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Verdict</h3>

<div>
<br /></div>
<br />
The only grace that saved this place was the Smore Dip. I would recommend this place as a desert and highly recommend to rather save your money and at least take it home. Oh and a good note is never EVER take any of this food to go. If you end up placing an order to go, it gets worse. You are better off eating it as fresh as possible as the food just simply tastes awful and soggy taking home, save yourself the trouble.....<br />

I have been asked this a lot and I thought it was time to
share my thoughts. Before I do, let me present to you what Matt Cutts says
about Social Media signals and if they play a role. Well you guessed it, the
answer is no. At least from what he says…..</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now let’s put yourselves in his shoes, do you really want to
reveal the true works of SEO and any new signals/changes that may help? Of
course not! They will spam the hell out of it and make it useless like guest
blogging has become over the years. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
If you want to be the<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>popular search engine, you want to show something we all know is part of
SEO, great content. Well what is considered great content? Content that people
share and discuss about. Google knows from referall sources where traffic comes
from. Even with Share This tools we can see what is or isn’t popular. So for
those who think otherwise, that’s fine. I mean Matt Cutts did say it didn’t
play a role.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
Some interesting findings in my history of this theory was I
took two pages with about the same idea and content. I sent one with traffic
from referral sources and tactics with Reddit, sharing all my social media
channels etc. And the other I just left as is. After about a few days I was
able to determine my more popular page was indexed quicker, higher positioned
and actually started getting natural comments and shares. Even my rich snippets
of authorship were showing. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For the other content, it was indexed after two days after,
no little to any traffic. No rich snippets, and couldn’t be found in the top 10
pages of rankings. So to just say social media doesn’t affect SEO, I can’t say
for certain that is true. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There
is however a part in Matt's video that explains in the future he
expects Google to be able to better identify who is writing the content
and where and place a more importance based on the influence an
individual may have. So perhaps Klout score may be some thing to
consider as a good source of where you stand. </div>

What kinds of social media signals have you seen on your
website or blog? Has the popularity and sharing helped you? Did you see any
natural comments or links come to you? Or maybe you feel that social media is
just no cooralation to SEO period…. Hey I look at both sides of the fence and
totally agree with all the positive and negative thoughts about this. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Per our discussion about the importance of EDU backlinks.
There are good edu backlinks to get, but to help educate everyone on the team,
I wanted to point out what some people are doing to get backlinks to EDU’s and
things we need to avoid so we avoid getting penalized in the future.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
To my point earlier, EDU backlinks can be helpful but it
depends on different factors, including the relevancy to our site or page,
authority of the school, and what page it is on the site. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Below is a EDU that has a bunch of links on it, one of them
pointing to investpedia.com. The link is a deep link on a subdomain
of the site, the page looks spammy (it says on the page, “this site is under
construction”, and the url also looks spammy. This page does not look like a
trusted page on the site. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/%7Ewidjaja/">http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/%7Ewidjaja/</a></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">This is an example of bad
.edu link to get even though Berkeley is an authority school. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">The problem with EDU links is that
a number of shady SEO’s in the past have paid webmasters on EDU sites to put
their link on the site or created fake EDU online schools to get EDU backlinks.
Google knows this and therefore devalued a lot of .EDU links. I doubt many
universities watch every page on their site. For some universities, they
allow students or non authority people to create their own pages on the site.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">This link even to Harvard, one of
the most prestigious universities, has a redirect in their blog link, <a href="http://content.ksg.harvard.edu/blog/wp-content/themes/default/images/kubrick/lowratesauto.html">http://content.ksg.harvard.edu/blog/wp-content/themes/default/images/kubrick/lowratesauto.html</a></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">, really spammy. Their blog either
got hacked or their webmaster is getting paid to do a redirect to another link.
So getting backlinks from a subdomain or blog that has little editorial review
probably has no value.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">Here is another example of a
bad .edu link, <a href="http://www-personal.umich.edu/%7Elpt/links.htm">http://www-personal.umich.edu/~lpt/links.htm</a></span>
<span style="color: black;">. This page has thousands of links on it and there
isn’t any valuable to this page. Why is the purpose of linking to all these
sites? We want to stay away from putting our link on a page that appears spammy
and/or has thousands of links on it. We want to stay away on getting on a page
that has thousands of links, it doesn’t look like there was much
editorial decision making if any.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">Below are examples of .edu
backlinks from our competitors. Majority of competitor links are on
resource pages:</span></div>

<span style="color: black;"> </span><span style="color: black;"> </span>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">So remember not all EDU backlinks
are equal and some are really bad and just because it has a .edu TLD, doesn’t
give it special authority because it has an .EDU as the end of the domian. </span><b><span style="color: red;">Google says about EDU</span></b><span style="color: black;">
links are as follows:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="background: #FAFAFA; color: red; font-family: "Segoe UI","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;">“In general, I would like to add that no,
backlinks from .EDU domains generally do not get “additional credibility from
Google.” Because of that, the whole topic of working especially hard to talk
webmasters of these domains into linking to your sites seems a bit
problematic…”</span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: #FAFAFA; color: #333333; font-family: "Segoe UI","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;">Getting .edu links from authority EDU sites
that are finance related are good, but a low authority .edu site or an .edu
from an agricultural school won’t help us. Getting links from government sites,
high authority financial sites like Forbes and high authority news sites like
the Wall Street Journal are probably more valuable to us than many .edu links
that are out there. I do think that we get backlinks from some of the top
business schools main site, will be good.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When it comes to backlinks diversity of high authority and <b><span style="background: yellow; mso-highlight: yellow;">diversity are important</span></b>.
We should not just focus on getting EDU links since they are not more important
than high authority finance sites. We don’t want to only get the same backlinks
over and over otherwise it looks like we are trying to game the system, and
Google looks for these type of things and could lead to a penalty. There should
be a purpose of people linking to us. Google keeps saying links she be natural
from people liking our content, not us trying to force or pay people to put a
link on their site. We need to focus more on “link earning” and not “link
building” through authority/compelling content and good content promotion. When
you check out the bad links mentioned in this email you start to understand why
Google has cracked down on link building and nullified the value of many back
links out there including EDU links.</div>

As if this wasn't an obvious reasons from <a href="https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/66356?hl=en" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Google's Policies</a>, you know that buying and exchanging links are a "no no"....<br />
<br />
To have a public back and forth discussion on a social media platform for others to see is so bad! I guess we know someone will be fired soon in their SEO strategies! <br />
<br />
What makes it worse Matt Cutts apparently saw this as well. What do you think is going to transpire cause of this? Honestly, I wouldn't be suprised....<br />

I was able to get in touch with them and bring this up, apparently they are "saddened" and wondering why this is happening. Well I hope Matt Cutts takes this seriously and looks further into this. If companies of this size are trying to do these sneaky tactics, they deserve to be punished like the rest of us regardless of our size or wallets..... Here was our discussion:<br />

Let me know your thoughts about all this, do you feel they deserve punishment? Perhaps because it was an outsource or individual they shouldn't?

This discussion today on <a href="http://www.seroundtable.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.seroundtable.com</a> got me thinking and dug into a little bit deeper into the search results. Now I didn't find anything that could really verify any of these beliefs but be sure to give your opinions below.<br />

If you are interested in the discussion, you can read it<a href="http://www.seroundtable.com/google-mobile-seo-desktop-18271.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> here</a>.<br />
<br />
In other news, I decided to start doing some video blogs about discussions, topics, questions, etc. I want to know your thoughts and always looking to connect in some way. I hope to do some more editing and being able to keep you informed of all things <b>SEO</b>, <b>Paid Search</b>, and <b>Social Media</b>. I do apologize for not writing or being active on my site as much, we just launched debt.com and work is going crazy! Hopefully I can have some more down time. Anyways, enjoy the quick video!<br />

Target Pattern is a great way to build your Twitter audience
and actually have the engagement we so desperately want. I can’t express how
quickly not only my targeted audience has become but how when I share my ideas
and content how it’s shared throughout. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I have seen an increase of around 30% of my referral traffic
from Twitter ever since using this program. I must say I was quite skeptical at
first, but was proven wrong! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
One of the milestone’s was being followed and actually
engaged with one of the most influential social media woman, <b><a href="https://twitter.com/sandikrakowski" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">@SandiKrakowski</a></b>. She
was named the top 20 woman in social media by Forbes Magazine. To be even more
excited I been invited to write an article to become a influencer in the Paid
search area!</div>

I must say if it wasn’t for Target Pattern I have no idea

had some great success, but I wanted to share my thoughts and success with it!</div>

The payment plans are most certainly affordable, you can view

mine, let me know! Thanks guys!</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
There are many charities that exist out there. When choosing
a charity, pick one that accepts car donations. Make an inquiry if they are using
vehicles or if they are going to sell it to fund a charitable projects and
alike. There are charities that use cars for haulage or deliveries. If they are
going to sell the vehicle, ask them of how much of the proceeds will be put on
the charity’s fund. Also, make sure that the charity you choose to donate is
qualified to receive tax deductible contributions. Organizations that mostly
qualify for tax deductible contributions are churches, temples or mosque.
Asking the organization of your choice about this valuable information is
important to make sure that they are putting your charitable contribution into
good use.</div>

Middlemen and car donation organizations can help you with
the paper works needed for transferring your donation. However, most of them
take their own cut before the charity receives your donation. If you are
thinking of using the service of middlemen, ask if how much of the proceeds the
charity will receive. If the charity will likely receive a flat fee per month,
your donation may not be qualified for tax deduction from IRS. </div>
<h4 style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
Make sure to transfer your car and the title to
the charity correctly.</h4>

In order to be legible in receiving tax deduction contributions,
complete the IRS form 8283. In cases that the charity of your choice received
over $500 from your car donation, complete the said form together with the
acknowledgement that the donation has taken place and received by the charity.
You should also present the receipt of the vehicle’s amount if it is sold by
the charity together with other documentation that it has been sold. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
You should always put lots of
thought into making a large financial decision like refinancing your mortgage.
Even though it may seem like you could get a lower rate, lower your payments or
even cash out some of your saved funds, refinancing can often involve other
costs as well, including additional closing costs to secure your new refinanced
loan. <br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Ideally, if you plan to
refinance, you should pick the best time and <i>do it only once</i>. While you
aren't going to be able to predict the future, keeping an eye on the market for
good pricing trends and great rates can help you pick a time when it would be
the most beneficial to you. <br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Some homeowners choose to
refinance their mortgages because they'd like to get our of debt, move into an
adjustable-rate mortgage, or release equitable funds in order to purchase
additional properties or mortgages.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Before you decide if refinancing
is right for you, try to sit down and define what your goals are going to be.
You should make a list of all of the things you hope to accomplish by
refinancing your home and remember, refinancing doesn't make any of your debt
go away, however it can help you reorganize it. Often times, this can be a nice
break or change from the same routine when it comes to your finances, giving
you the opportunity to make any changes to your accounts, since changes in your
lifestyle are frequent. <br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Another great reason to refinance would be if you're seeking
to consolidate multiple smaller debts. If you have more than one mortgage or
equity loans, consider putting the two payments into one fixed-rate payment.
Then you can level out your payments during the time of your loan, without
putting yourself into a hardship type situation. <br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For those who are considering refinancing their mortgages,
oftentimes the question is not why, but <i>when. </i>If you're currently paying
more for your home than it's worth it may be possible to refinance your home
loans using the Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP). Other types of
re-financing involve cash-out plans or 'vanilla' refinancing. For any type of
refinancing program, you'll also want to be sure that you put your credit
history and score in order, this way you can apply for lower rates and better
terms. <br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Refinancing your home loan or
multiple mortgages can help you save more money, but it's also necessary to
keep from paying into costs which will eat it. Understand that you will <i>always</i>
pay the closing costs for a mortgage, no matter what they call them,
(origination points, higher interest or higher overall loan amounts) so don't
be suckered into thinking you've found a mortgage with no closing costs. Other
expenses can involve private insurance or similar lenders fees. <br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
If you have any questions about
refinancing your mortgage or you'd like to speak with a professional financial
adviser about your options, please don't hesitate to contact one of my good friends at <a href="http://www.mortgage-matchers.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Mortgage Matchers</a>. Interest
rates are currently lower than they have been in years, slowly becoming stable
again after years of uncertainty in the housing market. Don't miss this
opportunity to refinance your own home loan. <o:p></o:p></div>

<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhg4MiFap7XKNUXVWP4JVfRzK3IAQPLJVJySXfEtcYOmBK0QVGGgLtpWjXmiWow-RGTdB13qiBvjXHWZ_F72RMi3BPtzs4af6ni1iBuh7eRVu4e-5JAQcZwFeD17NW0U7JOU69y2hiFLnqp/s1600/google-adwords.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Google Adwords" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhg4MiFap7XKNUXVWP4JVfRzK3IAQPLJVJySXfEtcYOmBK0QVGGgLtpWjXmiWow-RGTdB13qiBvjXHWZ_F72RMi3BPtzs4af6ni1iBuh7eRVu4e-5JAQcZwFeD17NW0U7JOU69y2hiFLnqp/s1600/google-adwords.jpg" title="" /></a></div>
<br />
I noticed this morning in my Google Adwords accounts that the new design is finally here! Google announced a few months ago about it, and now it is here!<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>Barry Schwartz explains that, "<span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: #050505; display: inline !important; float: none; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 19px; orphans: auto; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;">The new design is aimed at making the AdWords console more unified with the other products, services and platforms Google offers. Google said the new design aims to also make the console simple and beautiful user experience that helps you get tasks done quickly and efficiently."</span></i></blockquote>
<br />
I personally like it and it really feels smooth with the transitions of things. The ability to navigate around the platform is far superior than it previously was. Here is an example of the new design:<br />
<br />

<br />
You probably have not seen the change yet in your account, but expect to see in the next "few weeks" Google says.<br />

<br />
<br />
As I promised before I want to go ahead and do another contest. I decided to go ahead and give away a free booster box to one lucky winner when the set becomes released!<br />
<br />
What I would like to do differently this time is that the winner actually do a video or article response showing their new box and actually opening up the packs! So if this is something that you feel can do, then go ahead and share this post! <br />
<br />
Every entry will be entered into the contest software provided by Hootsuite. Every entry can be entered by either Google plus, Facebook share, Twitter tweet, or even blog mentions.<br />
<br />
If you mention on twitter be sure to include <b>@alexhemedinger</b>. I noticed last contest that wasn't done and required me to personally find all twitter shares etc. <br />
<br />
The contest was very successful last time, that my wife truly thanks you all for you support!<br />
<br />
Also, if any of you have any contests in the future that you would like to see (be reasonable). I will go ahead and consider it. <br />
<br />
P.S. I made top 8 at our recent PTQ in Florida!

<br />
Well it's official.... Matt Cutts has decided that guest blogging is basically gotten too spammy. Here is what he wrote on his blog today:<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<b><i><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: #111111; display: inline !important; float: none; font-family: Merriweather, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 21.993999481201172px; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;">"So stick a fork in it: guest blogging is done; it’s just gotten too spammy. In general I wouldn’t recommend accepting a guest blog post unless you are willing to vouch for someone personally or know them well. Likewise, I wouldn’t recommend relying on guest posting, guest blogging sites, or guest blogging SEO as a linkbuilding strategy."</span></i></b></blockquote>
<br />
It really has come no surprise to me honestly. But I am glad this may tone down a bit of the spam on guest blogging. Be sure to no follow your guest posts on your site.<br />
<h3>
<b>What this means:</b></h3>
<br />
Well basically now you can't even guest comment by trying to include keywords that will trigger the site you blogged in for branding purposes such as your name or company. Though honestly it may be a small such volume or change, it's still somewhat relevant.<br />
<br />
Here are some of Matt Cutt's video over the timeline about the guest blogging. You can really feel his frustration in his writing and read more of his whole article <a href="http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/guest-blogging/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

I am going to be brutally honest here, I am seriously
annoyed with this situation on Google’s penalty! I wanted to put together a
list of serious causes that your site may be hit with a manual or automatic
penalty from Google.<br />
<br />
Recently one of the site’s managing has become penalized for the second time…..
That’s right the second time! I hope this list helps you so that this may never
happen to you personally, or explain better to your cient what may have
transpired to their penalty to begin with. Although in usual cases I would
suggest to abandon the site instead of constantly trying to remove a penalty.
It requires countless hours of work and I hope none of you do any of these, or
begin to:</div>

</span></span></span><b>Buying links</b> – This is a tricky and grey area,
cause it can and can’t be caught. But one thing is for sure if your purposely
buying links to manipulate rankings, then it may catch up to you. From my
experiences I would stay away from Web Directories! </div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">

</span></span></span><b>Duplicate Content </b>– This one is pretty obvious:
Any duplicate content on your site is going to make it less useful, end of
story! So make sure content is unique and well-written. Copygator and Copyscape
are great tools!</div>

</span></span></span><b>Keyword Stuffing</b> – You have to be real careful
on this one. It may/may not help you. The rules aren’t proven at which
percentage is the correct ratio, but just be sure to spread and it reads well.
Don’t let Google find weird high numbers of keywords on a page.</div>

flaw I see too common. This can bring an immediate red flag to Google. We
understand you may need to do some for legitimate reasons, but don’t overdo it!</div>

this…. This is common and will catch up to you in the future. Be sure to stay
away from this tactic, especially if it seems to good to be true. Overall, don’t
do it!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
There are honestly tons and tons of more other reasons as to
why Google penalization may be in place. Rented links, buying tons of keyword
domains, 301 redirects, etc….. The best is to stay away from anything
unnatural. Put great effort into user friendliness, useability, great content,
and more! </div>

<span style="color: #1f497d;">This is the overall
importance of looking into the new year with your PPC campaign. Look at
important data involving your goals. See how you can increase your ROI with
adjustments on devices, times, areas, and other ways to optimize. Maybe it’s
time to review your negative keyword list?</span><br />

If you’re the decision maker, then this one doesn’t apply to you. But be sure

changes needed. Test before, there is no commitment on new ideas.</span><br />

the work for you. There is ton of PPC management, analytics, and other
softwares to help improve your ROI. Don’t be lazy!<br />

I found this list to be more of a pet peeve of mine rather than the top 10 crucial. </span></span><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Let's begin!</span></span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> </span></b></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">1. Paying for Negative Keywords:</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> Nothing is far worse than to pay for keywords that don’t
even have any relevance to your goal. If you are having your keywords set at
“broad” that can be the worse case scenario for this problem. Ensure that you also
look into the search details of each keyword to either add or remove keywords
to enhance your ROI.</span></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">2. Not Inputting Keywords in Ad:</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> This is huge! Put keywords into your ads for which you are
paying for! Not only will the ads be beneficial in quality score and click
through rate, but even will show <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">bold</b>.</span></div>

3. Not Bidding on Your Name:</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If your competition is purposely targeting you
as a keyword you want to be able to rebuttle and bid against it. You may also
take legal action if able. The way around it is to actually create a dynamic ad
bidding on a broad keyword that can trigger your competitor’s. It’s not against
Google’s policy so be assured that you can do this too. </span></div>

4. Not Using Extensions:</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> Ok I seen
this a lot with so many campaigns. Be sure to utelize as much as the extensions
Google provides. It is even proven that the more you use the extensions the
better quality score you will receive, even if you are just a lander use a
phone extension. </span></div>

</span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">5.
Not Using Bid Adjustments: </span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">This is
huge! For many campaigns some get a lower CPA on mobile then they do on desktop
devices. If this were true, change your bid adjustment by certain percentage
that makes sense. If you really want to go all out, then create a mobile
campaign only. But not using this bid option is crucial. </span></div>

Bidding for Position #1:</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> This isn’t most of the time being the best strategy,
especially if the CPC is way too high to afford. You want to be around position
3 average (top left side of Google). You may attract visitors more, sure.... But
people will do research before they decide to make an action. Unless your
giving something for free, I wouldn’t immediately decide to be position 1. </span>

Avoiding Help From Google:</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> Not
everyone likes to ask for directions, but let’s be honest you are going to need
help from time to time. I mean it’s free information that a rep from Google can
help you. Am I saying there the best? Are they the experts? Not really, but
they sure can guide and help you in the right direction that best fits there
needs. Let’s admit it, Google wants you… $$$</span></div>

Directing Page Only to Home:</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> You never just want to designate all your traffic to your
home page, unless it’s a lander with a form fill. You want to find a page that
can convert better by being more relevant with unique products, services, or
content. Try even changing your url to being more user friendly. Remember not
everyone want’s to search all over the place. Make it quick and simple. </span></div>

Not Tracking Conversions: </span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">You would be amazed how many clients never had tracking
installed. It’s like throwing money out the window! Wether you are tracking a
conversion on a page (thank you) or a call, It’s wise to track efforts. With
Google’s CPA bidding option now your able to let Google optimize your campaign
to receive more conversions. Makes sense right? Even if you enable Enhanced CPC
will also help as well<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">. </b></span></div>

designated areas that you want to advertise. It doesn’t make sense to show

each ad group/campaign to the areas. </span></div>

If it’s one thing that pisses off a consumer is the lack of
social media engagement. So far to this date with the new year approaching the
last known post from the company <a href="http://redflygames.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Red Fly Studio</a>, was October 4<sup>th</sup>,
2013. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With myself being a TMNT fan as well I feel so upset being a
PlayStation owner. I mean how awful it is knowing any other platform can play
the game?! Patiently waiting I was hoping someone even from the company would
respond by now…. <br />

There is a lesson to be learned here and the consumers voice
doesn't end with just Facebook. All social media avenues have been sent with
negative responses and questions when will it be released? I feel to represent
such a high brand of one I grew to love you should put effort into good
companies running it. (Hopefully something positive will come about this, sheesh!)</div>

Now I haven’t played personally, aside from the issues at
hand I am confident the game is worth the $14.99. This thing could have blown
up and became a huge thing with online play etc.</div>

My advice for all this is that eventually this comes out
soon. No matter how long I will move on with a newer system and get purchases
here and there. I am hoping the company itself personally apologises for the
lack of response and updates of the progress. We deserve not only the finest
polished game, but a discount and bonuses as well. This will be the only way to
maintain somewhat positive reinforcement in your brand. <o:p></o:p></div>

That is the question we are all asking ourselves is how this
update will be affecting SEO? Well as it shows more than 90% of it will affect
us. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When I heard about this update I wanted to capitolize and
test to see where the searches were going now. I instantly was able to use a
blog post with a giveaway and using minimul social media engagement only using
Reddit. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It was for a good cause and actually was a gift for my wife
to show the positive impact that people have in showing respect and excitement
for something free! Within one hour’s time people were sharing the post and
commenting reguarly. Starting to see big page views and other referral urls
from other sources people used to share from their own social media accounts. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
By the end of the first day I started to see over 5,000 page
views, 700 Google pluses, 70 Twitter shares, 80 Facebook likes, and tons of
adds on social media. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of course I was excited personally from an SEO perspective
but more importantly able to show a good cause that people truly do care. There
is a big lesson here from small business and big business. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now for the fun part…….. I started to see organic results
hitting my blog and started to run ranking reports. Well to my surprise I was
hitting over 3 keywords organically first position with my authorship! (Yes I
have personalized results hidden) </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of course there is a negative aspect to all this. Google did
actually update their Google Authorship in hitting rankings, but stay positive
and still utilize the tool! Don’t give up! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Overall, for me what I see working is being able to write
great content, people sharing and engaging and building your authorship and
trust with Google. This is the future and I know with social media engagement
we are going to see some great results as Google wants to become more
personable in the search results! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Tell what has been working for you since the update? Any
tips and tricks welcome to share!</div>

I will admit I was nervous at first, cause I don't know how he was treated before. But we took a chance and it was worth it!<br />
<br />
When we first received him he was originally raised by an elderly woman and wasn't raised well. He was always shaking and unable to cope with the change. He wouldn't eat and always hid under the bed. Of course this could be considered normal since he is scared and the difference in the environment. <br />

After a few days he started to open up and shown his personality. He was a lively dog and a lot different behavior (not that this is bad) from my previous experiences with Dachshunds. He was very calm and never barked at strangers, he wouldn't become territorial or anything. He even was fine around our one year old son.<br />

What also helped us was my marriage with my wife. He brought us closer because we had something even more in common with the love of animals. We would go on a daily basis to the dog park and just spend time as a family. With work and travel, it's hard to be that "perfect husband". I even felt Willie was able to protect her and keep her company while I was gone. <br />
<br />
As a family we are glad to have Willie a part of our lives and bring us closer. We look forward to many years having him touch our hearts. <br />

If you are trying to lower your
mortgage payments to have a positive impact on your budget, you should consider
consulting with the professionals at <a href="http://www.mortgage-matchers.com/" target="_blank">Mortgage Matchers</a>
in order to get a clear grasp on your options when choosing to refinance your
home loans. If you find that your original payment is now too high a refinance
to lower your mortgage may be appropriate, but you should examine more facts
and details like those below before investing in such a decision.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The cost to refinance and lower
your mortgage payment is going to involve another set of closing costs, just as
your original loan did. You will likely receive the same terms for repayment
time, so you can expect to begin all over again, on another 30-year note. In
this situation, it is important to note that you may end up paying more over
time in interest costs, than you would have initially paid for the mortgage at its
higher price. Be sure to discuss this important point with one of the knowledgeable
assistants at <a href="http://www.mortgage-matchers.com/" target="_blank">Mortgage Matchers</a>, who are waiting to
give you even more information about lowering your mortgage payment.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b>Am I ready to refinance?</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
If you do not know if you are
ready for a refinance, you still have other options. Contact the resourceful
team at <a href="http://www.mortgage-matchers.com/" target="_blank">http://www.mortgage-matchers.com/</a> to ask
about a PRA, HAMP or VA home loan. If the home you own is now significantly
less than the loan you are paying for it, consider a Principal Reduction
Alternative (PRA) to have it adjusted. The Home Affordable Modification Program
(HAMP) is a program for homeowners who are <i>not</i>
unemployed, but are still having difficulty paying the amounts stipulated by
their mortgage. Those with home loans that were acquired through the VA or the
USDA can contact these agencies to determine if there are programs that are
available to assist them with a refinance or a lowering of their payments. <a href="http://www.mortgage-matchers.com/" target="_blank">http://www.mortgage-matchers.com/</a> can help you with
these types of loans as well; just visit our site to find out more information
about money saving options.<o:p></o:p></div>

Whenever you decide to do it, you
should aim to do it only one time. Even though you are going to be getting a
lower interest rate and lower payments to make every month, over time, you may
end up paying more for the entirety of the loans. To make the best financial
decision, consider contacting <a href="http://www.mortgage-matchers.com/" target="_blank">Mortgage Matchers</a> to
ask them about any questions you may have. They are a local company in the Anaheim, California area. Two of the biggest reasons that
people will want to refinance or lower their mortgage payments is because they
would like to reduce their interest and re-initiate their loan period, or for
debt consolidation. Homeowners who have an equity home loan on top of their

Still not enough here what experts see in the future:<br />
<br />
Facebook will have a <a href="http://www.allfacebook.com/facebook-will-outsell-yahoo-in-display-ads-2011-03" mce_href="http://www.allfacebook.com/facebook-will-outsell-yahoo-in-display-ads-2011-03" target="">17.7 percent share</a> of the market for online display ad sales this year.<br />
<span id="more-47543"></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 16px;">
That’s <a href="http://www.emarketer.com/PressRelease.aspx?R=1008450" mce_href="http://www.emarketer.com/PressRelease.aspx?R=1008450" target="">eMarketer’s</a> latest forecast for 2011; in March the consultancy first said that Facebook was on track to outsell Yahoo and Google in the online display ad market.</div>
<div style="font-size: 16px;">
By contrast, Facebook had 12.2 percent of the online display ad sales market in 2010. And eMarketer expects the social network to take 19.4 percent of the online display ad market in 2012.<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><i>source: http://www.allfacebook.com</i></span><br />
Online sales in France, Germany, Italy and Spain are rising more rapidly than those in market leader the UK. B2C ecommerce in these four countries will grow an estimated 15.2% in 2011, to $93.5 billion. By 2015, the total will approach $149 billion. <i><span style="font-size: xx-small;">source: http://www.emarketer.com/</span></i></div>
