PinPioneer & TumbleForce good or bad?
-
Hello,
Surfing on a black hat forum I found a link to this software:
PinPioneer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=1_V38W2ElPE
&
TumbleForce: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=EdGT2UNZNkU
As I saw on the videos the features are great, but I don´t know if automated link building is a good idea, I would like to know your opinion, would you use this software to generate backlinks faster though Pinterest and Tumblr?
Is it a good idea to use this kind of software or should I keep my hands off this?
Cheers
Arnold

I hear you. There are some decent tools out there but for the most part, spending your time on the tried and true ones tends to be the best use of your time and your client's money. Short cuts are paying off less and less.

Hello Chris,
I think It´s always good to stay informed about white & black hat techniques... mea culpa, as soon as I saw the videos I had a negative and a positive feeling about this, I think it depends on how you use it, but definitely it can be used to SPAM and without the knowledge to ruin your website, I just wan´t to hear people opinions on this matter, maybe someone is using this or similar software and have something to say about it.
Thanks!

Hey Arnold,
A couple of things stand out regarding your question, specifically, "automated link building" and "surfing a black hat forum". A question pertaining to the validity of either is almost always answered in the negative--mainly because if you're not knowledgeable enough not to have to ask the question, you're best staying away. As far as those specific pieces of software--never heard of them and if there is any value in them, it's likely to be short term and likely to backfire on you in the future (if you have future plans for your site.

Twitter Analytics: Follower Count & Reporting Inconsistencies
Our number of followers on Twitter has suddenly dropped (yet not dropped) in a really weird way. Twitter Analytics shows follower counts in two places: Monthly increases in followers, and then also in the Audience Insights tab, where you can see three months of follower counts mapped in a chart. Month-to-month, the total number of followers continues to rise. What’s inconsistent, however, is the total number of aggregate followers shown in the cart. Twitter just dropped our to total count of followers by about 600. But it’s not like we just suddenly lost 600 followers last month (in fact we gained far more than that), but rather that Twitter seems to have adjusted the aggregate numbers across the board retroactively for all months. So while month-to-month continues to show gains, overall, we still went down. The only way we would have even noticed this, by the way, is because we have a record of the OLD total follower count that Twitter had previously displayed as recently as last month. So confusing. We’re trying to figure out what happened, and the only thing that seems to make sense is that Twitter may have done a huge spam account purge, and instead of making it look like we suddenly lost a lot of followers, they just updated the aggregate total # of followers across all time……? [For the record, we do not buy followers, but we don’t always do the best job at blocking spam followers when the do follow us either.] Any advice would be appreciated, thanks. 🙂

Facebook Likes, Google +1s tactic - is this a good idea
Hello, For our eCommerce site, we're considering doing the following: When people call in to place an order by phone, we take their order and tell them while we have them on the phone that if they click the Facebook Like button and Google +1 button on our site's home page, we'll knock $3 off their total. We would just show them where the buttons are and refresh our screen to make sure the count went up by one like and one +1 when the customer said that they pressed the buttons. Then, we would continue with their phone order and just knock off $3.00 I may not do this just because it may be grey hat, but it seems 100% safe forever. If you recommend against doing this, can you think of any 100% white hat way to do the same thing? Thanks.

Social Media & SEO
I just wanted to see what your opinions were on this. Does being active on social media help with your SEO efforts. I'm not talking about having a link to your website on your Facebook page, but in general commenting on news stories and having conversations. Would Google prefer you over a competitor if you were more active on social media?

Good idea to include links in Facebook posts teaser-text?
Hi guys, I'm wondering; is it a good idea (for the engines primaliry) to include links with targeted keywords in facebook posts. From a user perspective I would say it's not desirable. But I'm wondering how Google and co treat links which they find there. They are nofollowed, yes. They are indexed however but when I want google to show me the text-only version of the cached page I receive an 404 error which is odd. Anybody else getting the 404 from google? Eg. clicking on this cache-URL: https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:jsC_26QVKbgJ:www.facebook.com/echoonline/posts/156674087731661+site:facebook.com/echoonline&cd=3&hl=de&ct=clnk&gl=de&client=firefox-a and then on "text only" leads to this page which does not exist: https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/echoonline/posts/156674087731661?_fb_noscript=1 Looking forward to your ideas on this topic.
