Chrome SEO, one of the best SEO tools to Chrome
Many SEO experts are interested in opting for firefox, for the simple reason SEO Quake plugin, but I was very slow firefox, so long I have chosen to Chrome, a browser safer than we can find today and I even venture to say that one of the most stable.
Then yesterday (boring) I began to review the features and plugins that Chrome and I found: Chrome SEO, among many other plugin that gives us information on the various websites we visit.
Compared to SEO Quake (which is also for Chrome) is much more rapid, complete, stable and visually speaking, much more attractive, ultimately what matters to us is the data that we offer.
• Indexed Pages: It indicates the number of sites in which we indexed.
• BackLinks: links that point to the website.
• TrafficandRank: The amount of traffic the website receives and weight in the network.
• Bookmarks: Number of saved links from readers, like favorite system including all web browsers.
• Cached: Last cached version of the site
• On Site: It indicates whether there SEO work on the web.
• Domain Details: Details of server and domain.
• KeywordTool: Finding related words most commonly used
Chrome future changes in SEO:
• Integration with Google SERPs. As SEOQuake or SEOBook Firefox extension.
• The ability to compare the statistics of the ranking of a website with a different one.
• Search Rankings.
• Analysis of keywords in the page
• Integrate the search keyword with Google Adwords, get the tool to do research faster.
• Integration PPC (Adwords, Adsense, Microsoft Adcenter, Yahoo Search Marketing)
• Better descriptions for any web designer / developers to work with the tool.
• Integration with Google Analytics Google Chrome SEO Toolbar
• Allow SEO Google Chrome Add-developers can contribute plugins.
Advertising on Twitter, and what users think
Finally, advertising has come to Twitter so "official" as from yesterday, have begun to show in the form of sponsored ads Tweets that have been paid by companies like Virgin America. After more than three years, this site has been transformed into a platform for real-time information will begin to monetize the content.
After enjoying a site without ads for a long time, it's time to see sponsorships, but has ensured that they are as annoying as possible. After the launch of the marketing of Twitter, some regular users have begun to say in the matter.
According to data from Crimson Hexagon, interestingly 42% of users consider advertising as spam / upset and they want off-site, is a very large percentage of users who disagree, and perhaps the group of users have more activity or considered loyal users.
On the other hand 31% of the twitters regard this announcement as an interesting move, but would like to see more before accepting its operation completely. And if Twitter is able to integrate advertising without annoying users, will be a major step in the monetization of the site and to keep users happy at the same time. It is a difficult course.
Only 27% of the population believes that Twitter tweets are sponsored sensible business model, which does not greatly affect the common user activity and therefore have given their approval.
Now it remains to see if the tweets are sent via API-sponsored as well, since many people (myself included) use Twitter from third party applications (clients, either desktop or mobile platforms). While analyzing the possibilities, it is likely that third-party programs are free of advertising, at least at first.

Tumblr suggests premium templates, his new way of making money
Tumblr has begun to suggest to their users to use themes of payment from your blogs administration area.
Tumblr is a microblogging platform free most known and used, not to mention the most known and used worldwide, after Twitter. Its ease of use and ease of customization have become famous among fans of quick, short post.
Until now, when acceding to the administration area to customize our Tumblr blog on the tab called "Theme" we suggest the latest free templates uploaded for users to be shared.
But what was my surprise today, when access to the same section, I found that, before displaying the latest list of free templates updated, Tumblr showed me the list and screenshot of the last 13 payment templates.
Among the prices of these templates are for all budgets, ranging from $ 9, about 7 € to 49 $ that would become the change about 37 € but I say that if you register on a free service is for microbloggin pay nothing, if not you'd have a blog with hosting and domain fee, right?
That is as it seems, Tumblr expects to earn money to finance their microblogging platform, though this is the second option since a few days ago and announced they were going to launch payment service for premium users.
Spotify does not ensure entry into U.S.
It seems that the introduction of a Spotify free in the U.S. is being more cumbersome than its CEO, Daniel Ek is wanted and that unlike what happens in Europe, where they already have than 320000 users and pay more than 7 million users of the service, conduct negotiations with the various parties is still much more difficult because they have to deal with many more people.
While in Europe have been only a few brokers in the United States reached the figure of 5000. Moreover, a pay-only model, could lead to competitors like the Apple App Store and decided to impose it aside, is why a free model is essential to make it attractive to users.
Moreover, it appears that the earnings of artists do not become entirely satisfactory and profits are ridiculous after playing a thousand times in his works, so the model would also have to improve in that regard.

Dot-com domain marks 25th anniversary
It's amazing how fast time flies. Just 25 years ago recorded the first domain. Com by company Symbolics Computers, located in the city of Cambridge in Massachusetts, USA. A March 15, 1985, there was symbolics.com registration, but also four other domains were also recorded: BBN.com, Think.com, and MCC.com DEC.com. Later in November of that year recorded in an act Northrop.com mark the beginning of the business of domainers.

With the addition of new TLDs it ensures that this growth to remain active, as each day exploring new ways to have a presence on the network with a domain.
Symbolics.com Currently, the first domain in recorded history has been turned into a blog showing hundreds of links to affiliate programs on the purchase and sale of domains. A sadness that a piece of Internet history has turned over a pile of links that provide little or no visitors who come to learn more about the origin of domain names.

Bloggerwave returns scheme sponsored posts to the blogosphere
3 years ago was very popular meet enterprises engaged in contacting bloggers with advertisers so that they write posts (reviews) on certain products or services. In fact this model was very popular and many people were enrolled in this type of site where sometimes there were good payments. That yes, influential blog required to be at least considered. And so it worked then.
The problem came when bloggers published some positive comments about a product when it was really poor quality. The lack of honesty sparked much controversy, especially when it comes to these markets where they sell and buy sponsored posts.
Bloggerwave is precisely this style a site where anyone can register a blog to make money. Once an account is created and approved by an administrator, you enter a market where advertisers choose manually the sites where they want to advertise.
Once you have selected (on) a blogger, this (a) must write a post with the conditions specified. The information provided by the page is very clear and it is said that honesty should prevail above all, if someone does not like something, I must say as it is, without guile.
At first you may not have many advertisers and, worse, the few that there will be interested in the American public, which leaves little scope to compete. Anyway, it's interesting to see the revival of business models that were successful in the past, see if there comes a second wind of such sites.

MySpace has renewed its website to compete with Facebook and Twitter
MySpace was a pioneer among social networks, but the competition was very strong and soon Facebook pages forward in fame, views and registered users, so now MySpace has raised redesign its website and review the operation of its entire platform to get to against these young competitors.
The co-presedente of MySpace, Mike Jones, has "confessed" that some workers have lost the strength to keep fighting to top the list of social networks, seeing the strength in their Facebook and Twitter, and now need new "fighters" and "believers" that they can cope and return to the leadership.
Because of this, News Corp, has suggested that these employees were not committed to the company to leave and have hired new and enthusiastic employees. Let what you say a renewal of personnel to get new air and ideas into the company.
Over the coming months, as declared by the president of MySpace, we will see gradual changes in the web that we will reach the new version.
In this new face of MySpace, is itself more to the music and all that are multimedia content as the company's goal is to get new users and bring back those who have gone and to pass the 100 million user 300 ... (so now they have to run)
Earlier this year, MySpace had lost 7.4% of visitors compared to last year on the same days, so it's time to put the batteries and I hope to offer much more content and many more things to do within your network, because right now, all you can do on MySpace, also be done on Facebook and much more besides ...
Google wants to take their searches also television
Go to the Mountain View not satisfied only with being a very well-known search engine on the net, but apparently also wants to venture into the small screen, yes, yes as you listen, on TV.
Not that from now begin making products by hand (though not surprise me), but apparently the company had signed a collaboration agreement with the company Dish Network, which has a TV service satellite which has a market share of 14 million users in the U.S.
Well, in that agreement, which, moreover, has been neither affirmed nor denied by Google, Dish Network decoders are installed and the Android operating system could do with a keyboard Busca offer television and video over the Internet, such as Youtube which is also owned by the giant California.
And how Google would benefit from this offer? for integrating its Google TV Ads advertising, giving each family an advertising "customized" depending on the searches made.
It appears that service is already being tested since last year via some employees from Google.
Twitter ads will launch soon
Twitter has so far remained a completely virgin network, which has not been touched too much by advertising, unlike other sites such as Facebook. That does not mean there are no plans to do so, and indeed, could soon see ads on our timelines, this state killing Twitter neutral with respect to advertising.
The most discussed possibility is that the introduction of so-called sponsored twitts in which products are advertised and / or services. Of course these messages are written on accounts with large numbers of followers, and it would be interesting to see the performance of these campaigns, as until now there has been no way "official", although third-party tools do you incorporate this business model.
I think the extent that these messages have controlled the lives of people who use Twitter every day will not be much affected. I hope that the inconvenience of this type of activity are minimal, since if anything characterizes Twitter is the freedom it offers us all.

Among several features that can be found inside VWO is for example, integration with Google Analytics, reporting A / B with support for Multivariate, graphic and accurate details about the visitors, WYSIWYG editor (visual editor WordPress style) that allows editing of any site without ever touching the code.

For the time being is in Beta, which is free for everyone, however, later on when the Beta expires, will likely become a paid service. We must seize the duration of this phase.

Facebook changes its policy of advertising: it now accepts PayPal
Facebook besides being the second most visited site in the U.S., has become more than a social network, since the integrated applications, events, media and above all, a lot of content to users, now is more a social platform, robust and interesting for many people around the world. Among people who use Facebook, there are the advertisers who take advantage of the insight that has Facebook to advertise certain products and / or services.
However, one of the main problems was the method of payment, although not as complex for people living in the United States, aliens (small businesses / developers) that do not have large bank accounts were not an easy option to pay claims on their campaigns.
As a strategy to attract more advertisers, Facebook has announced it will soon add support for PayPal. Thus, any person, whether a casual user, a developer or a sales manager of a company may use this payment method known worldwide. It is certainly a breakthrough that facilitates the process of buying ads on the social platform.
This move is expected in the future, perhaps in the medium term, PayPal will be consolidated as the standard payment on Facebook. Whether to buy advertising space and buy items of applications (like games for example) and even non-virtual goods if they are offered such products. It seems a wise move that will give much to talk, especially about the prospects of integration represents.
