Is Tweetdeck Killing My Tweets!?!
-
So I remember reading a while back that there were some disadvantages to posting on Twitter from Tweetdeck, but when I went back to find this information again, I couldn't find anything related to that topic.
With that, do any of you Mozzers out there have any compelling reasons as to why I'd prefer to tweet directly from my Twitter account on the Twitter site, instead of on Tweetdeck!?!
Any and all insights/commentary/speculations would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!

One other thing came to mind overnight. I think that the API had some limits with regards to follow/day. That might make an API reliant app less useful for some purposes.
-
I believe sometime in 2011, Twitter started clamping down on third-party apps. One example is that TweetDeck had a feature that allowed you to post a tweet that was longer then the standard 140 characters. That feature no longer exists, as many third-party apps had to meet the requirements that Twitter asked for. Basically, Twitter wants any app to behave like the Twitter site so in hopes more users start using the Twitter site.
Twitter is making the API rules tighter yet. 3rd party apps can't go over 100k users, unless they have permission from Twitter. http://thenextweb.com/twitter/2012/08/17/twitter-4/
As far as TweetDeck goes, I use it and I love it. Twitter now owns TweetDeck, so if you prefer TweetDeck over the Twitter site, use it all you want, Twitter won't mind

The only thing I can think of is related to facebook not twitter. Posts made by 3rd party apps were beleived to have inherently lower edgerank. I don't think that was officially confirmed though.
Can't think of anything for twitter.

How does the background on my product photos impact SEO - step and repeat vs. plain background
I have a new e-commerce site and I'm focused on optimizing it for SEO. If I am taking product photos, will having a step-and-repeat (background with our logo repeated) in the background of the product impact how the images are scanned by Google? In other words, would I benefit from having a plain background behind my item shots vs. a backdrop with our logos all across it? I don't want Google to think I'm spamming my logo across all our items, but also want our photos to be recognized as ours. I want to gain SEO from my effort and definitely not hurt it! Thanks!

Reducing Amount of Text on Web Pages-Risk of Killing Ranking?
We are a commercial real estate brokerage firm in Manhattan. Our site (w w w . m e t r o - m a n h a t t a n . com) is text heavy and somewhat uninviting. Ranking is fair. Conversions awful. Our niche is very competitive. We plan on reducing the amount of text and making the site more visual. Among the planned changes: -Reduce amount of text in home page and text heavy pages. More emphasis on product (listings)

-Much larger photos for listings
-Lighter cleaner design with more open white areas
-Use of more visible fonts
-Better forms New design will be like: http://www.dernieretage-paris.com/ Theme and graphics based on Manhattan. More visuals. Better photos. Less text. But are we shooting ourselves in the foot by reducing text? Is there a risk that Google will reduce our ranking? Can we compensate for reduced text that is visible to visitors by completing meta tags more fully? Any thoughts??? Thanks,

Instagram for small manufacturing business?
Hi all, We're a small business based in the UK that manufactures a range of PVC strip curtains and rubber site safety products. We have a presence on twitter, facebook, LinkedIn & google+... I've been considering Instagram for a little while now as I know we would have plenty to post (strip curtains are seen in multiple industries, it'd be great to post unusual applications that we've supplied to...) but I'm wondering what experience anyone has had with Instagram in an industrial manufacturing business... Is the audience there or would it be a waste of time for us? I've briefly looked through # but I'd like to know first-hand experiences!

1 Website, 2 Business Names, 2 Locations
I took on a dentist office as an SEO client. They have 1 website, 2 business names and 2 locations. Each location has it's own business name. They are both within the same city as well. I'm not exactly sure where to start with them since they have 2 different business names. If it were 1 name with multiple locations I would just create a Contact Us page for each one, but is that the best thing to do when the location names are different? Should I create a different website for each location or is that smart because then they are competing against each other? Any help from the community on the direction I should take would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
