Lessons from Vienna’s Café Culture

Today’s web is not always an amiable place. Sites greet you with a popover that demands assent to their cookie policy, and leave you with Taboola ads promising “One Weird Trick!” to cure your ailments. Social media sites are tuned for engagement, and few things are more engaging than a fight. Today it seems that people want to quarrel; I have seen flame wars among birders.   Article Continues Below These tensions are often at odds with a site’s goals. If we are providing support and advice to customers, we don’t want those customers to wrangle with each other. If we offer news about the latest research, we want readers to feel at ease; if we promote upcoming marches, we want our core supporters to feel comfortable and we want curious newcomers to feel welcome.  In a study for ...

Lessons Learned in 25 Years of Freelancing

Embarking on a freelance web design career means embracing uncertainty. You’ll have to book enough gigs to keep you financially afloat. You’ll also need to weather the ups and downs. Most importantly, you’ll have to adjust to a changing landscape. Nothing is guaranteed. Thus, I was astonished and amused when the calendar flipped to 2024. This year marks the 25th anniversary of my freelance business. How time flies. I had no such milestones in mind back in 1999. My goals were relatively simple. I wanted to apply what I’d learned working for others. And I wanted to do things my way. Longevity wasn’t a priority for that 21-year-old kid. Maybe I’ve beaten the odds. But I’m still working with clients. Some have even been with me for the entire run. My goal today is to share some valuable lesson...

SEO Experience: Lessons Learned from 9 Years in the Industry

It’s been 9 years since I started Local SEO Search. At that time, small businesses were no longer getting good results from traditional advertising, and everyone was trying to figure out how to reach customers in a digital world. I remember spending hours upon hours reading articles and experimenting with different techniques. Over the years, I’ve learned a lot about SEO – both from my own experiences and from the success we’ve created for our clients. In this blog post, I’d like to share some of the most important lessons I’ve learned over the years. Digital Marketing is Always Changing Anyone who works in SEO knows that the landscape is always changing. What worked last year may not work this year, and what works today may be obsolete tomorrow. This can be frustrating for businesses tha...

Brand Identity Lessons You Can Learn from Marvel Studios

(Guest writer: Manas Chowdhury) From publishing an artist’s resignation letter on the internet, trademarking the word “zombies”, and now giving a whole new meaning to terms such as Captain, Iron, Thunderbolt, and many others — there is nothing this Studios would step back from. Yes, I am a Marvel fan, and it seems obvious. However, its amazing graphics, storytelling, and an interesting sense of how regular superheroes can be, are not the only aspects that pull us into the Marvel Universe. In fact, it is more about how they combined it all together to connect with the audience like none of the others in the industry. Why Proper Brand Design Is Important Why Proper Brand Design Is Important Some people think that traditional branding design is becoming irrelevant in the age of...

Dogecoin Marketing Lessons | MarketingProfs

I used to be a fan of Doge when it was still a good Internet meme. Wow. Dogecoin, the dog-themed satirical cryptocurrency that had soared nearly 16,000% year-to-date (YTD) at one point in 2021 (in mid-July, it stands at more than 4,000% growth YTD), holds some interesting lessons on trending marketing tactics and channels. Dogecoin was created as a joke on Dec. 6, 2013, after two hours of development by an engineer and an entrepreneur. It could be easily mined, and it cost mere fractions of a cent to buy at the time. So how can we explain the recent Dogecoin frenzy? From the perspective of marketing, what turned a joke into the fifth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap? 1.
