The Local Search Ecosystem in 2012

Amazingly, it's been nearly two and a half years since I first published my Local Search Ecosystem infographic back in October 2009. With the 2012 conference season kicking off in earnest with SearchFest on Friday and SMX West on Monday, I thought it was high time for an update. I'd like to think that the original graphic has stood the test of time pretty well...but there have definitely been some changes worth noting in the last 900 days or so.

For big brands, social media and SEO link building are virtually one and the same

Ten years ago, there was no such thing as “social media.” But there was social friendly content (blog posts, video, infographics, etc.) and social networks (we called them forums) and guest posts. There were also plenty of influencers for virtually every niche in existence. Granted, there were a lot fewer of each of these things, [...]

Google Places Spam Filter: Still Not Perfect

Normally I don’t like to call out companies for spamming (I am happy to leave that to Professor Maps), but when it’s - this egregious - on this scale - hurting REAL Local SMB’s instead of one big corporation vs. another I feel compelled.

How to Build a Brand for Your Business

I'm going to put this as simple as I can: A brand is consistant message of who you are. It's your business' identity, and should be the same over all of the branding you do, whether it's Facebook, Twitter, Google+, you website, or even your business card. This identity is not just about a logo though, it's about something that people can relate to, associate with; something which will resonate to customers, to keep them coming back time after time.

Who Owns Facebook? ? The 10 Richest Facebook Shareholders

Last week it was announced that Facebook would be releasing their initial public offering (IPO), which estimates the value of the company at roughly $100 billion, in an effort to raise $5 billion in funds. This is a huge step for the company, who have been in no hurry to make the company go public, and with this new valuation, it makes a whole lot of people very rich indeed, possibly even 1000 millionaires.

Is Verizon a Data Supplier to Google Places?

Obviously, I've claimed my consulting business on most of the major search engines and data aggregators, and done my best to make sure that my NAP information (Name, Address, and Phone number, for those of you new to Local Search) is consistent everywhere. Sure there are a few minor variations of my official DBA (David Mihm Web Design / Local SEO) due to various aggregators' limitations on length of business title.

But, I recently came across a crazy bug on my Google Place Page! I couldn't believe it. My phone number had all of a sudden changed from 503-560-2755 to 971-400-6360. I had two questions--#1, of course, why had my phone number changed? #2--and more importantly--where did that number come from?
