SEO and Social Media, by Lisa Pansini, Legal Productivity Blog

http://tinyurl.com/nuj2nwp

SEO has always been about one thing: publishing high-quality content that gets seen and linked to by as many people as possible. For years, the foundation of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) has been dominated by two key elements: content and links.

Today’s online society has given rise to a third: social media. It wasn’t around during the dawn of the SEO industry, but it’s difficult to ignore the power and importance that social media has in any marketing strategy.

Social Media does more than allow companies to keep up with their competition. It allows them to reach out and interact with their customers while building their brand, creating a sense of community, and driving traffic to their website.

When it comes to social media, however, there is no ‘one size fits all’ rule. . . .

App of the Week: Pushbullet- Share Anything Instantly Between Your Electronic Devices, by Lisa Pansini, Legal Productivity Blog

http://bit.ly/1sOoY5P

In June’s WWDC Keynote, Apple introduced their new iOS for mobile devices as well as Yosemite, their new Mac operating system (both of which are due sometime in the fall). One of the most talked about features is the way it will connect your computer and mobile devices. Phone calls and SMS can be pushed to your computer, and with the new ‘handoff’ feature you can pass whatever you’re doing from one device to another.

If you don’t own a mac, or you’re just tired of being left of of the Apple loop and would still like to have similar functionality on your devices, download the free Pushbullet app today.

Pushbullet makes it easy to get files, links, and more from your computer to your phone or vice versa. You can also send information from one mobile device to another (e.g. phone to tablet) and anyone else who uses the app. All it requires is a chrome or firefox plugin for your computer and an active gmail account. Once the plugins are configured, you can use it to push links to your other devices, or go to Pushbullet.com to send files, notes, lists, or addresses.

Android and Windows devices have full use of the app’s abilities, but Apple devices are currently lacking the “notification mirroring” feature that allows you to receive your sms, phone calls, and other app notifications on your computer. While a major bummer, the Pushbullet website mentions that this feature is coming soon!

All other push notifications show up instantly on your desktop or your mobile device, making the Pushbullet app perfect for anyone who wants a seamless way to stay on top of their notifications. Pushbullet is currently available for iOS and android devices. You can download the apps and necessary plugins directly from Pushbullet’s website.

App of the Week: Smart Safe Pro – Secure Sensitive Data on Your iPhone, by Lisa Pansini, Legal Productivity Blog

http://tinyurl.com/lxzhvrw

Regardless of whether you use your iPhone for docketing or receive emails from clients, legal ethics require that information about your clients be treated as confidential. And guess what, there’s an app for that. -CCE

Smartphone data is sacred to many. The mere thought of another human being infiltrating the privacy of their devices is enough to bring them to their knees. Rejoice, over-protective iOS user, for there is Smart Safe Pro ($2.99).

Secured with a AES-256 encryption, Smart Safe Pro operates as your digital vault, allowing you to secure passwords, photos, credit cards, and other documents. All this can be done without having to put a password lock on your device (but you can still have one if you really want it!)

You can choose between a PIN code, dot lock, numeric or alphanumeric passcode. The app can also send break-in reports with photo and GPS data via email, just in case someone tries to worm their way into your private data (requires in-app purchase). As if that wasn’t enough, the app also comes with a decoy login mode to throw potential snoopers for a loop. . . .
