Anyone know the benefits of sharing articles blogs posts on stumble upon?
-
Hi ALL,
Just wondering if it is worth setting up a stumble upon account and sharing our articles or blog posts? I noticed a few companies in my industry who write alot of blog posts who share their articles to stumble upon. Anyone have any insight into the benefits of doing this for SEO?
Cheers

If they copy it then submit a DMCA to Google.. I don't even bother asking people to take down content. WHat I was referring to was legitimate referencing when they write their own unique article because they like the idea of my own article. This latter thing is what I would like to achieve. Social sharing helps get your content in front of other bloggers which can help facilitate this.
Basically if you have good content, people will over time give you links naturally.

Hi Jonathan,
Thanks very much for your feedback! I noticed you mentioned "you have someone decides to provide a link back because they write their own version or a related article" I heard this from another source I have been speaking to, someone I noticed re-created my article but put a link to my site from the article they re-created, is this something that is done quiet often? Or do we have the right to ask them to take the article down ? Although I don't see the article was completed a copy of mine, it was re-written of there own version. Any thoughts around that?
Cheers

Every post I write gets shared to about 16 different social media outlets. I do this not only to drive traffic (although some hardly drive any traffic if I am honest) but to also get the content out in front of other people. Who knows... sometimes I get a burst of traffic, other times I hope someone decides to provide a link back because they write their own version or a related article.
My best social networks are Twitter and Google+ and that is where my efforts go. If I had more followers elsewhere I would love to use those as well, it is just I use whatever I find easiest etc. Overall though, I have not found Stumbleupon very useful, although I don't really understand how best to use it or have not really put much effort in.

My G+ for business currently has 55 followers and no engagement - apart from me liking the posts from my personal G+ Apart from the benefits of having content indexed faster, is there any other benefits for me in this situation, from an SEO perspective? I would like to grow the followers and engagement but not sure how as my social marketing skills are not as strong as my technical seo.

Is it ok to correct someone who spelled and styled our name incorrectly in a blog post?
A writer recently recommended my company, Swiftype, in a blog post. However, he called us Swift Type, which adds an additional t, splits our name into two words, and uses an additional capitalization. Would it be out of line to email him and gently correct him? I appreciate the recommendation, and will absolutely focus on thanking him for that, complimenting his content (which is fairly good), and just add the correction at the end of the email. While it isn't a huge deal, a search Swift Type brings up the Swift programming language and SwiftKey as first page results, while Swiftype only displays our content (he also didn't link to us, so a user would have to search to find us - reaching out could also be a chance to spur him to link to us).

Should I submit my articles to article submition sites myself or have a service submit my articles for me?
It seems that articles I've written about the transmission industry and submitted aren't being noticed by Google. The sites I've submitted them to were free sites, so my question is should I pay to submit them, or pay a service to submit them for me? Or, should I just continue to submit them myself to as high a ranking site as I can find?

Facebook, Google Plus - What to share/like?
Hi everybody! We are planning to offer an incentive to all our customers who interact with us on social media websites. What's the most important thing to ask from a customer? Facebook to like our Facebook business page or to like our own website through Facebook? to just follow us on Facebook or to actually comment / interact on our wall? Google + to +1, share, add to circle our Google+ business webpage or to +1 or share our own website? So basically what do we need to promote most? Our Facebook / Google+ business pages or our own website through social media marketing? While we understand it's important to actually interact with the customers and offer value on social media websites, we are looking to boost our SEO efforts. Thank you!

What is best way of using facebook share
I recently launched a scrollable web comic at www.shoutout.co.in. In space of 2 days after launch, i got more than 100 likes. While this is great number, i am not sure if this is best usage of options provided by facebook. Which option is best share/like/share-with-comment option? Currently i only have "like" implementation. Is this giving less probability of visibility to friends than "share-with-comment" option? stats and numbers from your experience/campaigns will help.
