‘Tis the Season to #shareSEO and Win!

Sometimes I say “bah-humbug” to Twitter.  Yes, there are some REALLY great SEO nuggets, but I spend a lot of time sifting through ongoing conversations, unrelated content, and other noise to find them.  How can SEOs find the nuggets amidst the non-nuggets? 

This holiday season, in the spirit of sharing, we’re holding a contest to kickoff a better way to share SEO nuggets on Twitter. With busy in-house SEOs mind we’re introducing #shareSEO, the hashtag that allows you to quickly see the juicy SEO wisdom sent in the Twittersphere.

To build momentum, every day until December 20^th we’re inviting you to tweet your best tips using the hash tag #shareSEO.  Not only will you get the warm and fuzzy feelings that comes with sharing, the best original submissions with #shareSEO (re-tweets don’t count) get entered into a drawing for one of two prizes;

• A ticket to the In-house SEO Exchange at SMX West* - an $895 value (even more after Super Early Bird rates end Dec 17th)
• A $500 Amazon gift card. 

So what kind of tweets are we looking for?  We’re looking for the best ideas – no matter how simple or small.  It’s sometimes the simple ideas that inspire the ‘ah-ha!’ moments and can have a big impact on SEO.  Like this one:

“Give ‘thank you analytics’ for x-mas that demonstrates the impact of others’ contributions to SEO in the organization. #shareSEO”

So put on your creative hats and let’s start to #shareSEO! 

PS, don’t forget to ask Santa for a ticket to the In-house SEO Exchange - it’s the best brainstorming event of the year for many in-housers!

*Note: the In-house SEO Exchange is available to in-house SEOs only, but the ticket is transferable to your favorite in-houser who will then owe you a really big favor!

Great idea, and as an in-house SEO I can definitely appreciate this. Often times twitter is crowded with independent SEOs looking to make a name for themselves, which leads to lots of noise. Don't get me wrong I'm all for it, but at the same time my paycheck isn't determined by how many SEO articles go viral on Twitter :)

@Optimizethis: Thanks! I'm always looking for ways to reduce the noise (but of course one person's noise could be another person's music). Watch for an upcoming post on strategies to help overcome the noise!
