Do you want to find out how we created too much demand?
There are three content marketing pillars of SEO: relevance, frequency and authority. These are the classic pillars of SEO, what’s been referred to since SEO became an online marketing practice to drive qualified visitors to websites through search engines. They were the first established pillars, principles that content marketing centered around, even before social media. Understanding the importance of each principle, and keeping them in practice in your content marketing investment is important. Following these principles, the three content marketing pillars of SEO, will cause your site to rank against competition.
We’re getting rid of autoresponders and forwarders configured through all our hosted accounts. Here’s why:
Autoresponders and forwarders are the mechanisms that were, for a long time, useful for managing the flow of email.

Things that may have been safe and widely used in the past are often misused and abused.

You’re probably reading this because your site got suspended. Fear not. It happens. The best of us have been there before, and we’ve escaped to advertise again.
Imagine this: You’ve finally started getting results with your ad campaign. People are visiting your website. Customers are buying. It’s an enormous relief because you weren’t certain whether the campaign would work, worrying that it might cost too much and fail to demonstrate adequate results. But now it’s clear that the risk payed off; traffic is high and costs are low. Smooth sailing.
But then, one day, things change. The traffic slows down. Sales diminish. Then you notice that your ads have stopped running. New business isn’t being directed to your website. What happened? A notification you receive tells you that your ad campaign isn’t running because now your site is suspended.
Managing Facebook Ads is now a common responsibility among advertising and marketing professionals, but you don’t have to be a pro to take advantage of Facebook Ads. You can create and manage the ads yourself, or hire a company like ours to produce and start managing Facebook Ads for you. It boils down to how much time you have to learn how to do it, how much effort you can expend optimizing your buys, and whether you can afford to take time away from facets of running your business that require your attention. Lots of businesses who’ve experimented with advertising on Facebook have concluded that better results are obtained by leveraging expertise from professional marketers.
A Google My Business listing is an important part of appearing properly on search engine listings. It appears on search listings where a the name of a business is typed in as the search term. It shows all sorts of extra information about your business. This is extended information that wouldn’t normally be showing in normal search results, the search results where your businesses is listed alongside competitors. You have to be careful though, because if you aren’t careful with how you handle that listing, you can get it suspended, and customers who are searching for you on Google won’t be able to find you.
Over the last couple years, the SEO strategy we’ve employed at Massive Impressions has evolved. When our clients engaged us to improve their site’s search engine ranking in 2015, a lot of our work last year was based on the content marketing principle of developing cornerstone content.
