Social media sites are great; they can drive traffic to your site, helping you gain wider exposure, and build your backlinks.
But Digg, del.icio.us, and the rest, pull from the whole word wide web. That means your page, post or picture has to get A LOT of bookmarks to make it to the front page and get a rewarding traffic surge.
That’s where niche social media news sites come in. These bookmark sites are topic-specific, so not only are you only up against your competition in the niche, the users who click through to your site are your target customer!

You might have noticed that Google’s results page looks a bit different. There’s a new way to navigate the search results. There’s an options panel on the left-hand side of the page that enables you to sort the search results by information type: news results, blogs, shopping, images or books related to your query.
The change is really about customizing search results. Google keeps perfecting their search to provide the most relevant information for their users. The tweaks to the design are to clear up the search engine results page (SERP) so it’s more streamlined.
The sponsored-links on the right-hand of the page, have also changed a bit. They’re closer now to the main body of the search results, and the look of the ads is similar to the natural search results.
So what does this all mean for you? We’ll explain after the jump!

The iPad: Bonus or Bust?
The reviews are in. Apple Computer’s iPad was released to the public on Saturday, April 3rd, and the crowds are crazy for it. Approximately 300,000 have been sold in just the last few days.
While Apple lovers rejoice, the critics are critiquing. But the lack of USB ports or cameras is less notable for Internet marketers than the fact that the iPad shares more significant similarities with iPhone than with a Mac.
As with the iPhone, any applications offered for the iPad have to be approved by Apple. And, unlike a computer, the iPad is not an open platform, which means users can’t download any unapproved or unauthorized software.
It also means that you can’t view sites that use Flash.
