I’m sure we have all been there, we have got a brand new shiny website and we just know that it’s great and is going to make us lots of sales. We have made the decision to spend some time doing SEO on the site and, we’ve got ourselves a few keywords we want to target and are bringing traffic and for a little while all is good and grand, in fact ecommerce heaven, we see our site start to climb the rankings slowly and then it begins to stall and slow down, then we just seem to stop and we are wondering what went wrong.

Just about everyone we know is now using Twitter in one form or another, whether it is for business use or on a personal basis.

Of course as well as a great resource for information, the search commands within Twitter are also great for finding out about topics in your particular business niche so it’s well worth spending a little time getting to grips with some of the more common commands and we will discuss these more in this post. Basic Search and the Hashtag # Twitters basic search commands work much like those of any search engine, so for example type in the words social media

Facebook Timeline delayed but is still coming, so what’s it like?

Recently we decided to take a look at the new Facebook Timeline which is still currently in beta, we couldn’t wait any longer and so used the developer’s app method to get an early sneak peak, if you want to take a look as well then you can find out how here.

One of the first things you will notice is the nice big banner at the top of the page known as the cover image. This can be any image that you already have on Facebook or you can upload a new one, even create a custom image
