How Tweets Are Ranked In Bing
Oct 26th
Twitters search results displays tweets in chronological order and offers no relevancy factors. Bing has introduced a “Best Match” options which attempts to rank the tweets providing more relevant search results. This “Best Match” option compares the number of followers to establish authority on a particular keyword search. There is also a “Most Recent” option which will display real-time results.
“If someone has a lot of followers, their Tweet may get ranked higher,” says Bing. “If a tweet is exactly the same as other Tweets, it will get ranked lower.” As I’m sure you can see there are flaws in this early version of the algorithm which I guess Bing will iron out as updates are realised. If someone chirps out a tweet that is of high relevance, but is a newbie to Twitter, their follow count will be low and therefore in this first roll out be ranked lower.This shows social networking is a key element of your search engine promotion for your website. We are not saying that stuffing keywords in Tweets is the way to go, instead, having a campaign strategy is a must. You need to keep to the basic rule…. keep providing good relevant engaging content and your follower More >

Got a lift to London from our favourite cab driver sal from www.linkairports.co.uk . Started the evening in a pub on Broadwick Street, Soho that sold organic beer. Tasted great. Cost £7.58 for 3 pints…. Say no more. Then moved on to Hix restaurant in brewer street, very cool. Drink downstairs very retro. Great food upstairs. 10/10. Then onto Chelsea to watch champions league game. Looking to carry on afterward somewhere else……
Stephen Covey – Event Summary
Oct 16th
Just like to say what a fantastic night I had in the presence (albeit it 20 rows back) Dr Stephen Covey, world renowned author of, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and the 8th Habit. Having recently read the E-Myth by Michael Gerber and The Sticking Point by Jay Abraham I would highly recommend this to any business owner regardless if your new to business or been around the block a few times. In-fact the longer you have been in business the more mistakes you probably have made and are making day to day. When I read the E-Myth it was as if Mr Gerber had placed a camera on our walls and based the whole book on us!!! The changes we have put in place in our business have made an immense difference to both the quality of our product, the delivery of our service, profitability and more importantly happier staff and clients.
Dr Coveys opening statement rang very true to me, I have implemented this theory through our company and I know it works. “If you want to make minor improvements, work on behavior and attitude.If you want to make huge improvements work on your business map.”
The map he refers to is the map that us business owners created More >
