How to Increase Authority Using Google+

Google PlusOnline authority is a big deal. It not only helps your blog’s PageRank but also builds credibility with both your audience and major search engines.

Don’t believe me?

Then explain to me why Google consistently refreshes its search algorithm. I assure you, it’s not for kicks and grins!

Instead, it’s Google’s way of refreshing its system. In other words, it’s their attempt toward accurately indexing content linked to the original authors. By doing so, original authors get credited with higher PageRank whereas scrapers get dumped.

With the beta introduction of Google+ linked with +1s, Google can now more fully test a system of site ownership using those two entities.

In a nutshell, Google allows site owners to attribute authorship by linking their Google+ profiles to their blogs and vice versa.

Here’s how it works …

The Growth of Mobile: Stats and Figures That Will Shock You

During my continual research and study, I ran across another exceptional video that summarizes the staggering growth of mobile.

The good news is that it isn’t over an hour long! ;-)

Matter of fact, it’s only around three minutes in duration but provides some great stats on why small business owners should start thinking mobile for local marketing.

In addition, I’ve provided a few charts and graphs to help drive home the point. So, before you click that play button, take a look at the following charts:

Why Thinking Mobile to Market Local Is Smart For Chiropractors

Mobile SmartphonesRegardless if you’re new to Next Generation Chiropractor or have been with me since day one, my purpose has never changed — I’m incessantly bent on providing valuable content that trains chiropractors on how to effectively use blogs and social media networks to grow their chiropractic practices.

For some, the information has been overwhelming. They understand the importance of having a presence online but are too intimidated with the process.

For others, the information has been emphatically embraced and implemented. Three quick examples that come to mind are Dr. Jon P. Heins of Belvidere, New Jersey, Dr. Eduard Burt of San Francisco, California, and Dr. Todd Sullivan of Springfield, Virginia. To use the words of Gary Vaynerchuk, they’re crushing it!

But, as many are aware, technology changes at a blistering pace. Case in point, no matter when you buy a new tech gadget, the sad fact remains that it’s outdated the moment you walk out of the store!

Why Chiropractors Need an eMail List

If you’ve been paying attention lately to my most current blog posts, you’ll notice that I’ve been hinting around at how important email opt ins are to your internet marketing success.

Well, today instead of just promoting a certain product or service, I’d like to discuss why chiropractors need an email list.

Before I begin, remember that your chiropractic blog should be setup as the hub of all your online activities. By writing keyword-rich, niche-specific content that meets the needs, wants, and desires of your prospects, your chiropractic blog will be more readily found through major search engines like Google and Bing.

However, driving traffic to your blog for the sake of traffic isn’t worth a dime unless you know how to convert that traffic into quality leads.

How I Received a 2010 Top Chiropractor Blog Award

Recently, I received an email stating that Next Generation Chiropractor had been nominated by my readers for a 2010 Top Chiropractor Blog award presented by BloggingAwards.org.

At first, I was a little perplexed, somewhat skeptical, and wondering whom had nominated me.

You see, many awards are given with strings attached — if you want it, you must agree to embed it with a hidden link associated with some form of marketing campaign or advertising agenda.

VoxOx Gives Chiropractors Another Choice Besides Google Voice

Over a week ago, I wrote a post about Google Voice coming out of beta. Based off of the comments I received for that post, it appears that several chiropractors were able to put Google Voice through its paces before the rest of us.

Nevertheless, I still activated the service within my Google account and started exploring its features. I must say after a week of testing it out, I’m quite pleased with the service.

However, I’m also cautiously optimistic. Based off of several readers’ perspectives, all the kinks apparently haven’t been ironed out yet.

Eyejot Allows Chiropractors to Send Video eMail Without Using Tokbox

Yesterday TokBox announced that their highly utilized video messaging functionality would be removed from their provided services beginning mid-July. As stated by TokBox, what this means is that you will no longer be able to record a video message and send it to multiple people.

At first this made no sense to me since TokBox was founded upon making video communications easier for people through the tools they commonly use — like email.

But upon further investigation, it appears their mission has shifted to become an industry leader in video conferencing and virtual meeting services instead of more antiquated technology like email.
