Using Slideshare For Keyword Rankings
Apr 16th
I just had an interesting experience. I was Googling myself (dirty) and found that my Slideshare profile had shot up to the top of the rankings. It overtook all of my various profiles, websites, blogs, etc. Basically, Slideshare just one-up’d Squidoo, EzineArticles, Myspace, Twitter, Wordpress.com, and others.

Is The Magic In The Wordpress? Or Elsewhere?
Jan 4th
