The secret to getting more readers, followers, and likes... Is a headline important? Yes! The readability of your article depends on it.  Consider the headline your "ad" for the remainder of the article. It's the thing that captures your attention and makes you ant to learn more.   How many times have flipped through your personal social feeds, only reading headlines? How often did you read the full article. My guess is you fell into the 80/20 rule. With a headline, 80% of viewers will read it... however only 20% go on to read the article. As you are looking...

Too frequent and too boring. These are the main reasons people unfollow a brand.   When creating a post you really need to focus on engagement. Mask yourself: why would someone want to read this information? If you can't answer that question... Try modifying the topic or move to a different topic. Learn what your audience desires.

I find it astounding that in the time you tell a customer "I'll be with you in a minute" 72 new hours of video are posted on YouTube, 347,222 photos are shared online, and 3,472 images are pinned on Pinterest. That's every minute. So... Are any of those generated from you about your business or shared by your customers? Hummm... Seems like a fantastic opportunity. And after reading this article I really got to thinking about the power of images.  As your business grows you really need to provide great content to engage your fans. But,...

Keeping up with the Googles. It's hard enough to create content (regularly) but when you're trying to boost your rankings it becomes even more difficult.  I think that's the point.  It is difficult to "game the system" or have a quick fix to boost rankings.  The search engines have a simple goal and that is to provide the best solution when they're posed with a question.  So, while you might be able to get away with a document that is "keyword stuffed", i.e., you took a single keyword and tried to get it in the document as many times as...
