Mike Friedman Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Linda Buquet noticed that Google has removed the Local navigation button from Google+'s navigation menu. Side by side's of the old menu and new one: Stole those from Barry. Collections is the new item in the menu. I have not looked at it yet. From what I understand, they failed to conquer Facebook with Google+, so now they are copying Pinterest with Collections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yukon Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I read about the Google Collections on Google News trying to ripoff Pinterest. Typical Google, they always try to copy anything that's popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Friedman Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 They have yet to really have any success in the social media market. I have to admit, I do like Hangouts, and I thought that might be their key to getting Google+ more popular, but so far, not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Friedman Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 I just gotta say, so why not here, I do like this better than the-forum-who-cannot-be-named. Lol... They can be named. I have no ill will towards them. I honestly wish the place was more like it was 3-4 years ago. But then if it was, I might never have started this....

But then if it was, I might never have started this.... How long has this site been up? (I don't wanna hijack this thread so I'll get my answer and redirect back to local SEO.)

Mike Friedman Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 It was up as a solely private forum since October (maybe September, I forget now). Then it was known as The SEO Pub Academy. I decided to rebrand because I teach a lot more than just SEO (working on a PPC course for example), and I do a lot more than just SEO for my clients. With the rebranding, I decided to open up a public section and move everything to a forum format. This rebranded site just launched a few weeks ago.

DarthSCULPT Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Looks clean and streamlined. The minimalist in me loves that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Friedman Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 It's run on IP Board. Xenforo is another good one. In my opinion, IP Board and Xenforo both feel much more modern than vBulletin. vBulletin is really starting to show its age and probably needs a redesign from the ground up.

DarthSCULPT Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Rock and roll. I like it. It would be funny if you ran ads on WF for this place. But, then again, no it wouldn't. I think the most fringe SEO you need around here is me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
