Can Mark Eisner be Influential for topic Kloutless?
So, what’s your take on Klout scores?
On Facebook and Twitter recently Klout has been getting lots of discussion. Mark Eisner of Advanced Land & Water is a small business owner trying to use more Social Media techniques to strengthen his internet presence. And a fine job he’s doing at it, I might say. Go Mark! But even with a high Klout score of 55, he remains Kloutless with no Influential topics at all. What’s up with that?

How to avoid the dreaded “Unsubscribe” Request
It’s clean out email trash day around here again … and I’ve got to shout out (or at) email marketers!
1. The quickest way to a Trash Bin is to oversend emails. Seriously, stop email overkill. I have found myself on the opt-in list of many Internet Marketers who are sending up to 8 emails a day … every day!
Oh my. Do they really think we can’t go a few hours without hearing their latest offer or words of wisdom? Or we’ll forget them if not hounded by email? If your writing isn’t more memorable than that – give it up!

I don’t like the concept of Link Credits, Link Clubs or “Click a bunch of random links and a slew of random websites will link to yours”. You can be certain the Search Engines don’t either. Get real, folks.
I’m always surprised that the search engines haven’t YET penalized everyone swapping links mindlessly. In 2007 Google clamped down on Link Farms. But of course, now in 2011 ”link farms” have been replaced with variations of the same. They’re a bit slicker now. And harder to detect. But still gimmicks whose sole intent is to boost link popularity for better rank in search engine results. My advice is to avoid any bad practice or you will get burned. Read more...
Sending too many emails will get you un-subscribed …. or un-read.
Now, let me elaborate. I just spent over an hour Unsubscribing to Email Marketers who abuse the auto responder system. After months of being overwhelmed daily by Internet Marketing Tips, Tricks, Schemes and Scams, I’ve had it. And I’m not alone.
New Internet Marketers say their biggest problem is Information Overload.
Anyone sending daily (or more) emails for months is just adding to the problem and should re-think their email marketing strategy…

As the new year gets firmly off the ground, I am making strides to re-group, get organized again and back on a sustainable path.
The biggest mistake I made in internet marketing during 2010? I just had way too much going on and found myself scattered … which leads to putting out fires. I’ve always been good at multi-tasking but this got way out of hand. Have you ever been there? Read more...
‘Farmer’ Algorithm Update: Ezine Articles slapped too?
Even Ezine Articles is vulnerable to Google tightening. Are you? Just after the major “corrections”, I posted my SEO View of Latest Google Update. I’m addressing a reader’s comment because it warrants an update.
Nick commented: “Ezine Articles was hit really bad by this update. I heard that their traffic went down massively.”
Yes, it is so true. Twice. The Panda Google Algorithm update hit many website URLs hard in February; then again in April 2011.
Ezine Articles included. It is estimated that Ezine Articles lost 35% of their traffic.
It is this blogger’s understanding that they are fighting back by tightening up and making modifications to their parameters including:
