Part of SharePoint’s platform is the powerful OneDrive for Business. OneDrive offers users a complete system for storing, syncing and finding files easily from anywhere in the world, as well as providing collaborative workspace for users.
OneDrive allows you to do several things that make work much easier for you and your employees, including:
You may be confused by the terms “geo-targeting” and “local landing pages” but it is not hard to understand the basics with a bit of study. Once you learn what these terms mean, you can begin the job of ranking your local landing pages for geo-targeted terms that will result in real, live customers to your business!
Geo-targeting is a term used when you focus on a geographically specific area that is pertinent to your product or brand. For example, when you travel around holding exhibitions in various locations, you might want to target specific cities with your brand information. You may also want a geo-targeting strategy for local businesses that do not serve customers worldwide.
When you host your OneNote notebooks on your SharePoint document library, you gain two important advantages: the ability to arrange and organize the notebooks in one location and the flexibility of controlling access to them.
It is usually best to give the responsibility for placing OneNote notebooks on SharePoint and controlling access to one person to avoid confusion. Once you have determined who will be responsible for this job that person can do several things with SharePoint:
In SEO as in other businesses, there is a great deal of misinformation floating around. Unfortunately, since SEO is primarily about information, bad “facts” can hurt your business by denying you the opportunity to increase your website traffic, conversion rates and ROI.
Here are some SEO myths that may cause you to take the wrong directions with your SEO efforts:
“Panda” is the name given to the set of algorithms released by Google that are designed to filter poor content and penalize websites that do not follow Google’s guidelines. Now, the latest version of Panda began a “slow rollout” this week, according to Google sources, and is predicted to affect up to five percent of all search queries.
There are a few signals added to this new algorithm that theoretically will help small and middle-sized businesses rank higher on search engine results pages or SERPs. Here are a few pointers:
You may have heard the term “farm” thrown around in connection with SharePoint or other software. What does this term mean when it is used in the context, and how can it help your business with data management?
A “farm” is a logical grouping of servers that share common resources and send data to multiple sites. Typically, a farm stands alone and is not connected to any outside servers, but there may be connectivity through another part of the data platform that allows users to connect to cloud-based storage, for example.
If you are still performing keyword searches by going to Keyword Tool, typing in some words and creating a list of terms, you may find that you are missing several golden opportunities to improve your keyword analysis.
Part of the problem is that long-tail keywords rather than fathead keywords have gained ascendancy, so it is much harder to predict what searchers will type in. Fortunately, there are a number of ways to find good keywords that will increase organic traffic—if you know where to look.
When OneDrive for Business upped user’s storage allotment to 1 TB and removed the quota management tab from the Online Administration Center, the experience of using SharePoint’s many features became easier. Now, a new storage model based on usage will make it even easier to manage storage availability across your team sites.
First, you will notice that you can reclaim much more SharePoint Online pooled storage capability with the new system. Reserved storage now applies only at the tenant level and does not tie up blocks of reserved storage; only actual use counts against your total.
When Google rolled out its latest algorithm change, this one known by the ironic name of “Pigeon,” local SEO and organic rankings were affected. How do your provide support and sound advice in the wake of Google’s changes?
Pigeon changed several things including the calculations for distance around a search. In most cases, Google reduced the default radius. That means that you may no longer appear to certain local searchers, and your ranking may be affected by the new radius as well.
We can hardly say enough about SharePoint because every time we talk about one great feature, two more seem to pop up! Here are some great features of SharePoint that you may not realize you can incorporate into your own business management.
