I received a message from a reader in the U.K. wondering if social media marketing still matters. She had read my book The Tao of Twitter (which is really about social media strategy) and wondered if the book’s main ideas were still relevant in a world where it is so difficult to earn attention and connect with customers. The short answer is, yes — it still matters, but probably in a way that is much different than you think.

So first, let’s try to understand the essence of link building before we even start with link-building methods. As Moz states, “ Link building is the process of acquiring hyperlinks from other websites to your own. ” A hyperlink serves the purpose of helping the users navigate between pages on the web. It is no secret that businesses are putting their focus back on the web presence, thanks to the global pandemic.

Marketing as “an art and a science” is as platitudinous as it’s nebulous —but true nonetheless. What comes to mind when you think about marketing? Do you consider the connection between your creative work and your customer’s neural circuitry? As you package your message into a creative art form, you attempt to elicit thoughts, feelings, emotions and behavior.

Have you noticed that no matter how well-written your content is, it’s hard to get views? Or even if you create video, audio, or image-based content it’s tough to get likes, shares, and engagement. Most marketers believe it is because there is so much content for people to choose from. In other words, why should someone read yours? And the stats do tell that story ( 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are created each day ), but it’s simpler than that.

What do creators like Mr. Beast and Ali Abdaal have in common? Not much, actually, other than the ‘Creator’ label and being YouTubers. They serve distinctly different audiences and create very different types of content. However, no matter how you look at it, they’re both pretty successful in their own rights. For content creators , one of the biggest debates is whether or not to "niche down" and focus on a specific topic or audience.

I’m bullish on ChatGPT’s utility for several different SEO-related functions like keyword research , local SEO , content , and link building. Having spent much time using ChatGPT, I’m also painfully aware of its limitations. While the API won’t be a panacea (and the web interface is actually much better for some tasks), it can help address some of the shortcomings of the web interface.
