Ok, so I've had a lot of people/clients complain about how they don't think they can compete in a world where social is going to start really becoming important. Like, when Mashable.com has tech geeks who will click on the +1 button (which is definitely going to start affecting rank), it becomes difficult for other sites to compete. So I got to thinking, why don't we all try an experiment where we help each other out.
I setup an email newsletter. Sign up by going here: http://www.spidermarket.com/beatsocial/. What I'd like to do is get the emails of 1000+ marketers. Once a week, I'll send out an email with various links that wickedfire members and others have asked help getting likes, +1s, or tweets.
Only those who have joined the mailing list will be allowed to suggest URLs. These URLs will be selected editorially. We can create more rules as we go. But for now, basically, I want to put no restrictions on this. Let's kind of just start it, see if it works.
I know it looks crude right now, but I think this is an interesting way to start really crowdsourcing social. Just like SEOmoz talks about the linkerati, if we play our cards right, we can kind of become the hub for sites that need social bumps. Figure we can kind of do HARO for social factors.
If you think this is a good idea, put your email in the "Join our email list form" at http://www.spidermarket.com/beatsocial/ go confirm it, and then bump this post back up.
