Beth - I hadn't gotten too deep into the "follows" so I spend last night going through all those followers and blocked a whole bunch. I actually decide to follow a few who seemed to have more to offer than just some product they are pushing. This af…
Patrick - Thank you for clarifying and more important what you do with follow requests. Some "experts" say to let everyone follow you and to reciprocate with all. That becomes no more than a numbers game. For the spammers, as you said, it's just lik…
Thanks Jane, my inclination was to "block" some of the marketers, but I'm not sure if that's what you mean by "dump" them. The interesting thing is that the "expert" has some good info - but I am tempted to unfollow him.
Can you or someone else cla…
A novice twitter - @BettyByrnes I made the mistake of following a self-proclaimed twitter "expert" and now it seems he shared my handle with the world! Fify+ new followers within 24 hours! (It's not as if I have any great posts or thoughts either.)…

Kevin Hood said… - Betty, if I understand correctly, try this:
Redirect Old domain to New domain (htaccess redirect)
Create a .htaccess file with the below code, it will ensure that all your directories and pages of your old domain will get correctly redirected to your new domain.
The .htaccess file needs to be placed in the root directory of your old website (i.e the same directory where your index file is placed)
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.newdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
Please REPLACE www.newdomain.com in the above code with your actual domain name.
In addition to the redirect I would suggest that you contact every backlinking site to modify their backlink to point to your new website.
Note* This .htaccess method of redirection works ONLY on Linux servers having the Apache Mod-Rewrite moduled enabled.

- Hey Betty, saw your comment about moving a site from TypePad to Wordpress, but couldn't reply. I did the same thing with Movable Type (from the the same makers of TypePad) using an old Wordpress plugin called "Underscore Permalinks." The plugin changed the hyphens to underscores, because Wordpress uses hyphens by default. I also had to change the permalink structure to: /archives/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%.html
Let me know if you need help.

Kyle Lacy said… - Ahh the age old question of being productive in Social Media. I encourage you to keep reading my blog. It really is dependent on whether or not you feel social media could fit into your overall marketing strategy. If not.. there is no reason to spend the time to learn and commit to a strategy.
We can help with building a strategy and developing ideas for brand development but that is only if someone really believes in the concept of social media.
