socialnetwork If you have been involved in Internet marketing a while, you will know the SEO (search engine optimization) benefits of links to your content. You should also be aware that being aggressively self-promotional could be harmful to your search engine rankings. Earned links, on the other hand, tell the search engines to sit up and pay attention. These are backlinks that other people create naturally, because they found your content useful or entertaining.

gigyasociallogin1 While Facebook remains the dominant social login, Google+ has made strong gains, according to a new report from Gigya. Social logins, which let site visitors register and log into sites and apps via a third-party social media site, reduce barriers to entry and, more importantly, let web publishers access the rich profile data held by the social network.
