Information Overload
For the past week, I’ve been using Twitter a lot more. It’s fun and almost like a message board but with only people you choose to read their comments. Twitter can also be a great way to update followers when you have a new post or information you want to share.
I’m not following that many people right now. Mainly those that I’ve either heard of through message boards or the Internet in general. A few are some recognized names in the world of blogging like Darren Rowse and Robert Scoble. It’s a lot of information and quite frankly hard to process it all. But with each day, or even hour, there is new content and new opinions to read. I love it but it makes it hard when you run across a great idea or something you want to explore a little more to have time to do it.
I can’t count the number of ideas I’ve had for my blogs this past year or even just this past week. Sometimes I’m on fire with ideas. The sad part is that at least half never make it out of my head.
The really good ideas, though, always come back. Most fall by the wayside but those that stay with me are the ones I develop into content. I think this same philosophy can be applied to SEO practices. You have to vigorously pursue those methods that feel right to you. Using keywords might not be a talent you have. Keywords aren’t everything when it comes to SEO. Find those traffic building and promotional methods that really set you a blaze and pursue them to the fullest. Let those other great ideas of the moment fall by the wayside. If an idea stays with you for a few days, then take notes because it could be something big and well worth doing.
