Am I wrong in assuming that the word "bro" has connotations of "gay dude"? Every time I see the word "bro" I can't help but think "gay". Are all bro's gay, or just almost all but the handful that won't admit it?

Bump. Looking for a real answer and not some drool from the local retard.

The question is wrong. The industry is not "saturated" nor will it ever be. 99% of all local businesses will never hire a professional to do their local SEO. The word "saturated" is misapplied and it's a low-priority concept compared to what's most important. Do they need it? Yes. Do they...

Don't worry about a single review, 5 star or otherwise. Claim your listing, claim ALL your listings (all the local citations, etc...) there's a "Big Picture" here and that one review isn't going to affect much one way or the other. Make certain your NAP is precisely consistent on all of the...

Let's say I want to get a list of all the URL's that have the word "skype" in them, i.e. "worldwideskype.com", "skypesucks.org", "dontuseskype.net", etc... Is there tool or a method to do this?

First I wonder if the country qualifies as a "local" business. Which doesn't mean that some LocalSEO shouldn't be done, but LSEO as a marketing effort is geography based and local results only. While I think a strong local presence will help in organic search results, it's not unlimited.

Black Hat methods will condemn a local business to failure and obscurity forever.

Calling someone's considered opinion "input" is an insult. Input is raw data, with no analysis, no meaning, no point, it's just input. He's given you OUTPUT, the result of his time, energy, experience and analysis. Anytime anyone thanks me for my "input", I make a silent promise to never give...

I want to name a website "word1BIGNAME.com", with "bigname" being a very widely known website. "word1" is a word like "fix", "improve" "repair" and the purpose of the site is to improve the "bigname". I know that "walmartsucks" is legal, and am wondering where the line is drawn.

I've read stories like this, and then it happened to me. I ran a search on GoDaddy for "word1word2word3.com" and it was available for $3.00. So, I thought I'd think about it for a few days, in order to decide if I really felt like doing the project, and 4 days later it's not available. WhoIs...

That's not how Skype groups in particular, and collaborative efforts in general, work. You don't presume to know what is and is not a quality that you desire, and the idea of "leaching" is otherwise known and LEARNING, and if you start out right from the beginning that you don't want anyone...

What you really mean to say is that you have no clue if it's possible to post a 2nd review on Google+, you really don't know much about Local SEO in General, you really aren't interested in answering the fundamental question I posted in the Local SEO subforum, have no real interest in Local SEO...

Disagree. When a person is accused of a crime, they are 50% guilty already. Juries don't look to prove he's guilty, they look to prove he's innocent. And having a bad liar for an attorney, telling bad lies and lying badly, making the attorney look just as shady and GUILTY as his client, would...

Actually it's you that doesn't understand much of anything. I've read lots of your posts, and in general you are a superficial and insubstantial person that finds consensus with your intellectual peers (that's the low-end of the pool) and not much else. Your opinion lacks credibility, because...

consumerist.cxoxmx/2013/08/29/facebooks-policy-changes-will-mean-your-content-can-be-used-in-ads-if-you-use-facebook/ Pretty sure I read a story where a FB User's image was used in advertisements. Looking for it now.

While messing about in one of my Google accounts I discover that some comments I have made about a local attorney (but outside my location) were deleted by Google for being outside their ToS. No profanity, racism, hate, sexuality, etc... I merely offered my opinion that an attorney in a police...

I gave a 2-star review to a restaurant, and the owner/marketer posted a response that clearly proves he didn't care to even read the review; just gave a propaganda-ish response to it, as if to say "this person is unreasonable, ignore him, we're a good restaurant", which they are, sort of, except...

Ad-words is a waste of money. Ad-words, particularly for local business, is the exact opposite of Local SEO. You do Local SEO as a "fire & forget", "one and done" type of effort. Ad-words is like going crack, or heroin. Sure it might work for a short time, but then you are right back where...

Here's a secret. Google trusts certain citations over others, with government being at the top of the list. Most states have an online directory of LLC's, DBA's, etc... Any kind of government listing is a tier 1 citation.Backlink your government directory listings.

Local SEO will always be a viable trade because businesses fail so frequently. There will always be a "new kid on the block" looking to compete with bigger and more established businesses, and Local SEO will be the only way in which a skilled and motivated small business owner can have a chance...
