Canvas is basically an image board, where people can post and remix images, we revealed in our Canvas tour in March. A lot of people don't see the point in funding an image board and wonder how it's possible to make money from memes.
But Canvas is more than just that. As the name says, it's an online community where people can create all sort of stuff, including, as we've found, beautiful art.
In one amazing Canvas thread, one user found an online drawing tool called Scribbler, and the community went to work, producing some amazing stuff.
In a moot interview, Canvas was described as "4chan with its pants on." There's definitely some of that. But skeptics should look at this to see there's much more.
I run an online commercial website at Stinkyink.Com and for the last 10 years have been totally focused on building my business based on organic search. This has meant that I have to be very aware of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and spend a lot of time money and effort in the fields of link building and website optimization. Recently however the new kid on the block has been maturing into an important additional element of this strategy, and the new kid is? Social Media Marketing (SMM).
Before I start, let’s be very honest about this. SMM has been around for a long time in the form of Blogging and the early Social sites and so has had many forms over the past ten years some of which are still very relevant, but the two most discussed at the moment are Twitter and Facebook.
Taking a look at the current position with SMM, this list is a personal list rather than a scientific list of what I would consider the top five SMM websites at the moment:
- Stumblupon
- Technorati
Ones that have been very relevant in the past are probably headed by Digg and could be:
- Digg
- Delicious
- MySpace
- Friends Reunited
And many more.
We are told that increasingly Google is beginning to use Social Media ‘Citations’ as ranking factors in the search algorithm, so is link building dead? – I don’t think so, however Social Media is being used alongside the traditional ranking factors.
So the question posed at the top of the page is ‘Is it possible to make it work for you?’ the quick answer is yes, but at what cost?. Our experience here at Stinkyink Towers is that to achieve any results you have got to engage with the Social channels that you want to use.
