How to Bring a More Conversational Style to Your Writing ~ @BryanAGarner
Rankings are not a business goal. ~ @iPullRank (Michael King) at the 2016 Dallas Digital Summit (DDSum).
Mike King said this during his in-depth SEO session at DDSum. Of course, he was primarily referring to rankings on Google and similar often-requested goals for SEO. I believe the thought also pertains to legal rankings. In recent years, the call has increased for lawyers and firms to eschew the pay-to-play lists, as well as ranking lists of all types – though the Chambers guides may be an exception. The January 2017 Marketing Partner Forum provided an almost unanimous verdict from In-House Counsel: ignore the ranking lists. One holdout said, “I do read Chambers. …though, I have never used it to hire someone.”
7 Facts About Cats that will Help Rock Your SEO ~ @Wilde_Agency
I try to refrain from the use of too many things "cats" in my content because I know it may be off-putting to some. The title of this item might make you ignore the content, and I encourage you to reconsider. For example: "Fact #3: Cats don’t want to be told to what to do. But they will follow you if they see a benefit in it."
