Slideshare experiment + harnessing power of social media
Making the most of the internet - my first Slideshare foray
As mentioned in my previous post, I'm trying out Slideshare as a digital marketing tool. In a matter of days I got 2070 views, an amazing result for a Slideshare novice (+ Powerpoint beginner - yes, I use its templates still!).
I only had one 'old' presentation there (Making the most of the internet, at the top) but with very few views because I had only tweeted about it once or twice. This time round, each new presentation was tweeted, pinned, facebooked, g+ed and linkedin-ed.
I took up a Slideshare challenge to mark the 10th birthday of LinkedIn (above). I then contacted one of the sites I recommended on Lucky 7 steps to let them know I had featured them. This gained me an endorsement: http://www.trafficgenerationcafe.com/weekly-marketing-skinny-may-11-2013/ (scroll down till you see Ming). Thanks Ana for your comments, I know you are a busy lady!
I'm also experimenting with branding - I have launched a Take 5 series, starting with a very popular topic (see above). I haven't invested a huge amount of time in all this - I'm doing it on top of a full-time marketing job, so I'm pleased about the results I got so far.
So if I can sum this up, the lesson I learnt is: come up with a popular theme, share like mad and do some blog outreach!
PS: If somebody wants to appear in my Take 5 series, I'm doing the first one for free! You need to provide me with 5 enticing facts about yourself or your company...

Long time, no SEO... Just joking!
I haven't been posting for months because I have been really busy with work and other projects. I picked up a new client around the time of my last blog here and have been working less and less from home.
Since April I have a full-time job in international marketing while doing bits and pieces in my spare time. So it might be long time, no see, but I have been reading, implementing, devising... breathing SEO techniques.
In the meantime, cast your eyes on some presentations I have uploaded on Slideshare, my new addiction! I am experimenting with Slideshare as my new channel, adding it up to my LinkedIn, Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter activities.
