After the last several months of using it, and testing it, and testing it more ... and running it into the ground I really can't find anything I don't like about it. It works, and gives you the important data that you need. (and NO, I am not just saying this because I am partners with Chris) This tool just rocks!
UtahSEOPro,
Thanks for the Sphinn - it't funny how we miss what is right in front of us at times!
This was a great post, but if we didn't get Googles attention with the post we did on 97th Floor, nothing will. By them saying nothing they are admitting they are allowing ROR to spam. I hope the money is good.
Hey guys, thanks for the comments,
Normally I would 301 the extra domains (.nets, .biz etc) to the main site, but this was just a suggestion (one of many different ways if you needed) to help you build additional sites (with your brand name in them) that could fill up the SERPs when people type in your name. If you 301 all of the domains you will only get one result in the search engine (the main URL) but what I suggested can help you dominate for your brand with your content.
Again, I am not saying you have to do this every time, it was just a suggestion (or one strategy) if you feel you are going to need it.
But I would agree that in most cases you will just do the normal 301s to those extra domains. As far as preventing someone from hi-jacking your name through these other domains - YES, you do that so nobody buys those domains from under you, and creates negative or competing content with the risk of customers thinking its you! (that is just good reputation management too) I hope this clears up what I was suggesting in my post!
Thanks for the Sphinn!
I wish everyone could have heard him live ... he killed it. So much good info to be learned from! Good job Chris...
I have been preaching this one for years. Thanks for sharing Cameron...
I thank everyone as well trusting us. Getting the emails that we have got from people telling us how they have used it to hit the homepage, (which is the point of digging stories, and why people use digg right?) has been worth going through all this spying nonsense! We created the tool to help Social Media Marketers, and so far it seems to be doing just that!
