SEO and Social Media Weekly Reader Feb 11, 2011

Friday is Reading Day
If you are looking for articles related to SEO or Social media, take a look at this list. I assemble it over the week and post it every Friday.

1. 6 Lessons for Awesome Email Marketing (blog.hubspot.com Feb. 7, 2011) A short review of Threadless. I'm impressed that they sent out an email "Open this email or say goodbye forever".
2. Push Me, Pull Me: Push-Pull in Social Media (blueglass.com/blog Feb. 8, 2010) Discussion about various marketing strategies in social media. Includes interesting customer survey results.
3. Facebook Limits Developers To Preferred Advertiser List (allfacebook.com Feb 9, 2011) Is Facebooks new restrictions a good or bad idea.
4. Useful Web Service, Tools and Resources for Web Designers (smashingmagazine.com Feb. 8, 2011) Another list of tools, but worth looking at. My favorite is Browserling a service to do cross-browser testing without leaving your own browser. Sometimes the free service can have a waiting line and you are limited to 10 minute sessions. Scr.im is a close second, it offers a way to hide your email address from bots (test my email address).

I'd be interested in hearing about any blogs or websites you follow, which contain informative articles about Search Engine Optimization, Search Engine Marketing, or Social Media Marketing.
