Search Engine Strategies and Online Marketing Summit Day 1 Recap

Search Engine Strategies and Online Marketing Summit 2010 – Sunny San Diego – Day 1 overview.

So much to cover.  With 3 different forums, Personal Labs by Business Online, and 2 show floors it’s impossible to cover all the action.

Stay tuned as we’ll be filling in the holes with links to lots of material that we missed in this very brief report.

Twitter – Tweeting fundamentals

I sat in on a Twitter Talk with @Dharmesh Dharmesh Shah, Founder and CTO, Hubspot and creator of  TwitterGrader.  Mr. Shah was fun, funny, and extremely informative.  I’m going to fish the slide show that went along but I gathered these strong bullet points;

• Register a personal Twitter handle and your business business along with variations of your business name and KEEP THEM SHORT!!
• Your profile has to answer right away “Why do I care?”
• Locate the stars in your industry and follow them.
• Robots suck.
• Don’t spam.
• Make it stupid easy to retweet.
• 1pm is the optimal twitter time.
• Ask for retweets.
• Don’t tweet about yourself.

Bit.ly is the best shortner for analytics Su.pr is another good one because you can get your tweets stumbled at the same time.

Strongmail is here to help you use email to stimulate your social media presence and vice-versa.

Kristin Hersant explains;

That’s all I’ve have so far.  I’ll be updating this post quite a bit in next few days because there was much more going on that I don’t have the time to cover right now!!
