4 Tips for Amplifying Your Mobile Content Marketing - Jeff Bullas

Once bitten, twice shy: Brands rethink Facebook’s role - Digiday
I've always thought it was weird for companies to be so keen on putting Facebook's name before their own (facebook.com/yourcompanyname).
“Our advice to our clients has always been to simultaneously build owned platforms (especially important for long-term SEO) and not to skimp on the un-sexy basics like CRM.”
Amen!
It's your website, dummy!
Off the Record in a Chat App? Don’t Be Sure - New York Times
"What happens on the Internet stays on the Internet."
Indeedy. SnapChat lied to its users. No other way of saying it. This is serious stuff, folks.
"The complaint also said Snapchat transmitted users’ location information and collected sensitive data like address book contacts, despite its saying that it did not collect such information. The commission said the lax policies did not secure a feature called “Find Friends” that allowed security researchers to compile a database of 4.6 million user names and phone numbers during a recent security breach."
Are we talking about the NSA here? Or an app that teens sext each other with? And it makes you wonder what Zuck really meant when he called Snapchat a privacy phenomenon.
That does it for this week's inbound highlights. Be sure to give your Mom a hug and thank her for making you an inbound marketer.
