Google’s latest project, the knowledge graph, should not worry businesses said an SEO expert. The Internet giant’s newest upgrade is an intelligent system which collects information across the web to create a massive database of more than half a billion people, locations, and things and the combined 3.5 billion connections between the two. Currently, Google is testing out the inclusion of Gmail messages in search results.

However, according to chief executive of StewArt Media Jim Stewart, the latest development will have little impact on SEO players and businesses since it focuses mostly on collecting information and relating them to develop the so called “knowledge graph”. The only concern SEO specialists may look into would be how the update would affect more specific categories wherein the graph will most likely come into play.

Google came up with an alternative so you can finally add authorship seal in your links without the mark up. Click on the photo to learn more. 

Social media and SEO are becoming more and more crucial for both small and big businesses and organizations who want to get their messages across to a wider audience. The two have been increasingly intertwined and with more people registering in the diverse social media universe, it’s also become important for organizations to take advantage of the social medium.

The biggest problem is to how to make social media and SEO techniques complement each other. The conflict arises when an individual or organization pushes both in exclusive zones when the two need to be coordinated.

With that in mind here are five ways to better leverage social media for enterprise SEO, courtesy of Adam Sherk of Search Engine Land:

  1. Google Authorship and Author Rank
  2. Train The Social Media Teams
  3. Factor SEO Into the Social Promotion Plan
  4. Coordinate with Outside Agencies
  5. Integrated Measure and Reporting

PageRank would be a great indicator of page quality and relevancy if there is no link selling or artificial link building involved. Lacking that, Google has to implement a quality scoring system independent of link popularity.

You must be one of the countless bloggers who hate WordPress.com for forbidding useful html tags like <object>, <iframe> and <frameset>.  These tags are automatically stripped when you save your draft. Without these tags, Flash applications cannot be loaded on your blog. The solution is to use the gigya function. Gigya is a legitimate tool in paid WordPress account,  but its use in free WordPress.com blogs is not officially documented nor explicitly forbidden by the host.
