The "unique and fresh content" may be the best tip on that list. I know I try to add two new pieces a week. Having a blog integrated with your website seems to help too.

I think the content and title metatag really need to be concise on the keyword phrase you are targeting. That is the # 1 factor that can boost you in the ranking.

The problem is...once you think you have it figured out...Google changes everything!

Can you speak more on this?

I use Facebook for business. I was you the PPC on Facebook, but found the time on site was nil and I got no leads.

I post my listings on Marketplace and post lots of videos and pictures, but it just doesn't seem all that powerful.

Search me under my name on Facebook to get an idea of what I have been doing.

Thoughts?

Thanks!
