To get started we will talk first about whether or not social media is a fad. Facebook’s IPOs is on the horizon if you have not been looking at the news LinkedIn went public last year (May 2010) and currently valued at over $9 billion dollars. Facebook is expected to go for much, much more. So to answer that question, is social media a fad? The answer to that question is clearly NO! Not when social media companies are going for billions of dollars and the majority of people are spending their time on social media sites. Social Media is not to go away it will transform into something that’s a little more creative than just hanging out with friends, for instance we might start to hang out with people that have similar likes and interests like the new site PinTrist or Twitter, I am just about out of time but some things to take home is known where to engage your audience, engage people were they are engage consumers in the networks that they’re involved in. 21.3% of the total time spent on the Internet is inside social network, comScore poll showed and average of 33 hours we spent on the Internet, and eight of those 33 hours are in social networks. It is important to have a sounds media strategy and to be thinking about creating content so that when people are looking for your products and/or services your easy to find on the Internet. I am out of time but for more information on the cloud, internet, and social media technologies please subscribe to our video blog, will deliver a nice e-mail with a video attached of our next episode of “60 Seconds or Less to SEO and Social Media Superstardom” each week.

Does Content Help Drive SEO?

I recently wrote an article that covered this topic, titled “Understanding Content Creation and SEO“, where I discussed the importance of structure when creating content to promote your business SEO. The short and skinny was that it  is as important how you write (structure) as what you are writing when you are driving SEO. (OK, maybe not as important as compelling viral content, but pretty important!)

Several years ago, Google started ranking pages based on a cumulative score, which was a sum total of your site ranking combined with your linked site ranking and which links were pointed at your website.  Nobody knows for sure what the Google algorithm looks like, since the algorithm is better guarded than all the gold that is allegedly held in Fort Knox!  For more information on how to increase your page ranking, visit the Google Webmaster Tool Box.

Real World, Made Up Example!

Let’s say you wanted to rank very high for selling “Wonder Widgets”.  The more websites that link to your site with “Wonder Widgets” as the anchor text, the higher your website would rank with organic words search for “Wonder Widgets”.  For a more detailed explanation on anchor text, please refer to our posts on Understanding Content Creation.

Let me give you a small example of how this would work in the real world. If there are 100 web pages on the Internet, 10 pages that are selling/promoting “Wonder Widgets”, and you have 9 of the 10 pages which include TARGET LANDING PAGES, helpful information, and professional expertise on “Wonder Widgets”, that makes up 9% of those 100 pages. The other 1% is hosted by a competitor of yours. All things being equal, if someone searched for a “Wonder Widget” in this scenario, who do you think they will find?  Who would rank higher on the Search Engines for keyword, “Wonder Widgets”? That’s right, the golden rule applies, content is king…when you factor in nothing else, the more relevant “Wonder Widget” company would be yours. But remember, not all content is created equal…

Find this interesting, join the conversation below.  Remember to subscribe to the 4C-ITB (4C-Internet Technology Blog) on the right to stay up to date with the latest in Internet technologies to help drive your business at the speed of light!

What research and experience has taught us is that how you structure your content can be as important to getting found as the content its self. What this means is that how you write is as important as what you write and how your rank in Search Engines evaluating your online content.

*Make sure you use a blog on your website to write about your industry. The content you write will get found and link to your website.

Understanding Link Authority:
Link Authority in addition to all the factors that drive your website and webpage ranking, all the links back to your (compelling) content over the life of your webpage will drive site relevance, authority and help improve your webpage ranking online. Several years ago Google changed everything and began ranking websites according to importance. The more times a website linked to another site, the more important it became and the higher it ranked. Google encapsulated this formula by not only ranking your site but the sites that link to your site with page value between 0 and 10 and providing an overall page ranking based on their formula.

Inbound links are important to SEO because they are road signs to search engine web crawlers. Simply put the more inbound links that you have the more authority you get with search engines and the higher you rank with certain keywords that are identified in your content. With that being said not all links are created equal. If you remember our distinction about how Google ranks webpages with overall authority and webpage ranking given to an accumulative rank between your site and the sites that are linked to your site. For instance, if you have an inbound link from the NY Times which has a lot of inbound links it will carry more authority than say a link from my cousins Bob’s personal blog.

Anchor Text:
Anchor text is the textual representation of your hyperlinks. For instance the anchor text in the Content Creation link is “Content Creation”. The link is http://4c-comm.com. Anchor text is important because search engines use it to determine what keywords are relevant to a page. For instance if you want to rank for the term “Content Creation” they you should try to get as many links as you can with “Content Creation” as the anchor text.

4C Business Cloud
Internet technologies, SEO & Content Creation is fast becoming a valuable asset for businesses to leverage and implement into their environment. Understanding how content creation can improve your visibility online and implementing businesses processes to manage and scale your business can give you the advantage over a business that does not understand, implement or leverage these technologies.

That leads to the question…

If the market makers are putting all this time and money into cloud technologies, then why have some organizations been slow to adopt?  Well, that probably has to do more with fear and a lack of understanding than anything else.  You see, most people are afraid of change and the idea of moving their infrastructure off-site can be hard to swallow, especially when they just spent the last 15-20 years developing an on-premise or data-center environment for their business, and now may be faced with migrating their infrastructure and applications to the cloud.  Or they may be like millions of small businesses who think that the cloud is something that has a large price tag tied to it.  This could not be further from the truth.  Actually, don’t tell anyone, but the cloud starts off at $0.00 and works its way up from there, depending on the type of business tools you want access to.  Microsoft and other cloud service providers offer FREE Office Apps and an entire suite of tools on their Windows Live™ service that you can use for zero dollars and zero cents.  (We may be in trouble for letting the cat out of the bag.)

Business Advantages

For small and medium sized businesses looking to simplify management of their environment, both the Cisco OnPlus service and Windows Intune system management can provide a tremendous business advantage. Giving an outsourced managed service provider visibility and remote access to your local environment will dramatically reduce the cost of on sight IT personnel while shortning repair response times. Providing centralized management systems to internal IT personnel can free up time by eliminating the need to be in front of PC’s to diagnose issues or update Windows or third party software.

Cloud based systems also provide organizations with the ability to take advantages of future upgrades without paying for costly software or hardware upgrades. Below, we identify what’s new and what is on the horizon for Microsoft’s Windows Intune Cloud Service Offering.

What’s new — in Intune 2.0
The 2.0 version released in October added very welcome capabilities.

• Software distribution: You can deploy both Microsoft and third-party software through the Windows Intune service by creating software packages (in the form of .exe, .msi, and .msp files) and uploading them to a cloud storage space that is reserved for these packages.
• Third-party license management: You’re no longer restricted to managing just Microsoft volume licenses. It’s nice to now have a one-stop shop for all licensing.
• Improved hardware reporting: The new reporting options help you keep track of both hardware and software.
• Improved policy conflict: When Windows Server’s group policy conflicts with Intune policies, you can now resolve them through the administrative console.
• Remote task improvements: You can now initiate full or light malware scans, update signatures, and reboot the system.

Other new features include a better interface and a new read-only access role so that administrators can let other people run reports and such, without the ability to make any changes.

What’s coming in Intune version 3.0
I hope someone at Microsoft takes the hint and resolves the remote connectivity issue in the forthcoming Intune 3.0.

In version 3.0, Microsoft has already said it will help Intune connect with other servers and manage additional systems. For example, Microsoft plans to let Intune connect with an on-premises System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) deployment, as well as with Forefront Endpoint Protection and the Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack (MDOP). Already, for $1 more per user per month, Intune 2.0 lets administrators use the tools in MDOP, including virtualization capabilities like MED-V and APP-V. Microsoft also plans to integrate Intune with Office 365 and some mobile devices.

I’ve liked Intune right from the beginning. The pricing is sound and the features, which continue to improve, are exactly what’s needed for a small business — except for that remote desktop connection hassle. I hope Intune 3.0 works out that kink.

Q: 4C Communications is different from most companies: Tell us how the model developed?

Ok…well it started when my brother and I were working together on a project in Napa. We were working with an ISP, helping them adopt and integrate a hosted communication platform that included SIP and Voice Over IP technologies, and some other hosted applications. This was pre-cloud, but still the cloud. It had been the first time, in four years, that we had worked together on a project and it was an exciting new time for both of us. What I discovered during this time was interesting; first was that internet technologies was a growth industry and second, we both had a passion for contribution. My brother was big into sports all through college. He wrestled and did quite well in high school and in college. I had a heart for contribution for years and had supported nonprofits, like the American Cancer Society, in my free time. So, we started to work on figuring out how we could tie our passion into our business so that we could support our community as we grew. That is how 4C was born. It is structured as an L3C, which is a legal form of business entity considered a low profit limited liability corporation. Now, don’t get me wrong, we are committed to making a profit however, what we are committed to over and above making a profit is creating programs that impact our community and the world around us. An L3C, which most people are not familiar with, is a bridge between nonprofit and for profit companies. Our fiduciary responsibility is to create socially conscious programs first and profits second, whereas most companies responsibility lies in creating profits for their members or shareholders, which can place some decision makers in compromising situations. If you take a look at what has happened in business over the past several years, you can get a feel for what I am talking about. So, you see, down to the way that we are structured, our focus is our community and what we can do to improve it rather than just making money.

Q: Can you give a one-minute version of your business presentation

The thing that really sticks out for me, and why I am so excited to offer our products and services to other businesses, is that I use the tools every single day. Over the past several years, my wife has been ill with kidney problems and would be bed ridden for days at a time while she was recovering from a hospital stay. These medical challenges were coming every 1-3 months, so it would pull me out of the office for 3 to 5 days at a time. The challenge was that we never knew when she was going to be hospitalized, so there was no planning around it. So, I went to work on creating an environment where I could work from home in support of my wife and our four girls while remaining engaged with what was going on in the office. What I realized was that without the mobility and suite of business tools that we developed through 4C, there would have been no way for me to keep up and be productive at work. It was a hidden blessing to have been forced to use and adopt cloud technologies long before most businesses had considered them. What I experienced was something that I knew most companies would need and want, a set of business tools that could be accessed from virtually any device and give companies and employees the ability to work from virtually anywhere.

Q: What do the 4C products look like?

We have a suite of services that companies can subscribe to that are delivered through the cloud. What we are doing is taking what we earn and learn and putting it right back into our community with our Donation-4-Nonprofit program. Our suite of products are picked only if they support companies with reducing costs or increasing mobility, agility and productivity within the organization. They range in functionality from communication to electronic record management, managed firewall or managed Linux or windows servers, to accounting and file sharing. We have a broad array of products and services delivered in a low monthly subscription model. Again, the key is to get these tools into businesses owners’, managers’ and IT professionals’ hands at as low a cost as possible. The byproduct is the removal of support, maintenance and upgrade costs of the application. We also remove the need for specialized personnel or training and provide a suite of on–demand business applications that companies can pick and place within their organization to meet the needs of their business.

Q: You mentioned the 4C Donation-4-Nonprofit Program, what is that?

4C commitment runs deep. We believe that our success will be directly proportionate to the amount of people we help, so our goal is to help as many people as possible. One of the ways we are doing this is through our Donation-4-Nonprofit Program. We give our customers the ability to designate a nonprofit or club of their choice and, upon approval, 4C will donate 5% of proceeds subscribed to by the individual back to their nonprofit beneficiary. We also give customers the ability to pick one of our existing nonprofit beneficiaries or nominate one of their own. In addition to the 5% donation from an individual’s subscription services and other customers supporting the same cause, 4C donates another 5% back to all of our nonprofit partners, for a total of 10%, into community nonprofits to support programs that our customers are passionate about.

Q: What would you like people to know about your business?

We are passionate about what we do. We believe that business technology is the great leveler in business, and companies that embrace technology, automation, workflow and mobility will have an advantage over businesses that do not. We want to educate, to encourage people to know their history and to remember where we came from and what has happened in the past 20 years. The greatest indicator of the future is the past, and the rate at which technology and the global economy is changing is accelerating. Be prepared for when the economy turns around. If you are ready when the world takes notice, you will be able to handle the growth and scale your business and you will be able to capitalize on the new globalized economy. If you are not ready, it will not matter if the world takes notice or not, you will continue to do what you are doing today. Cloud technologies and applications will give companies the ability to get and keep more customers, which is the primary objective of most businesses. If you have been waiting for things to get better, STOP. They already have. While most business owners sat back and waited, the wealthy got wealthier with billions earned in bailouts, the poor hunkered down and the gap between the classes grew. Small and medium businesses make up the majority of the innovation and income in this country. It is time to get committed to having it be different, and the transformation starts today. This is our commitment…

One of my favorite quotes is, “What is the difference between inspiration and motivation?  Motivation is where you grab hold of an idea and run with it.  Inspiration is where an idea grabs hold of you and takes you to heights that you never dreamed possible.”

So, what inspires people?  What makes them excited to get up early, go home late, and love doing it?  It is a cause, think about it.  When you think that you are working towards a higher cause, then you have energy that you never thought you had.  You can be and do more than when you feel lost or in limbo.

Inspiration is powerful and companies can benefit from developing their organization around a cause.  By tying products and or services to worthy causes and rallying their employees behind those causes, companies can add excitement, enthusiasm, energy, and, most importantly, inspiration to their workforce.

4C has spent the last several years researching how internet technologies can impact businesses and, more importantly, impact the communities in which we work.  Our intention is to create something unique in the market place;  to create a technology company that is less about what the total cost of ownership is (TCO) and  more about what we can be and do in our local community to make it a better place with what we know and love.  You see, when you focus on something, it expands and our focus has always been on our community, contribution, and commitment to the people we work for…our customers.

This has opened up a tremendous amount of opportunity in the nonprofit community, giving us access to work with great companies like Napa Valley Education Foundation, Grants For Good Foundation, CRUSH Inc. and The Crosswalk Community Church, just to name a few.  One thing all these great organizations have in common is great causes.  These cause driven organizations have people that work joyfully each day and do it for little or no pay.

Now, I’m not talking about cutting employee pay, quite the contrary.  I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to work for a fare wage.  What I am talking about is developing a cause driven organization to improve employee performance and morale.  For -profit companies can learn a lot from the nonprofit business sector about what inspires people.

4C demonstrates this focus with our Donation-4-Nonproft program, where nonprofits can receive free hosting and email services and gain access to our team of Technology Coaches to support them with the challenges they face every day.  This holiday, we have also been actively working with programs developed by Comcast, CRUSH, and The Home Depot to support our local community with everything from discount internet services, discount PC’s starting at $149 , home improvements, food programs and services for families and children stricken by poverty and abuse.  For information on the 4C Donation-4-Nonprofit program  or our other community programs, please visit and like our Facebook page at facebook.4c-comm.com Please join us this holiday season and into the new year as we commit to raise $100,000.00 for charity.  Happy Holidays from all of us here at 4C.  Please remember to share this message with your network.

The small and medium sized business landscape is changing…and changing far faster than expected due to the adoption of internet technologies, aka, The Cloud. Although most of us believe this is a new technology trend, cloud technologies have been around since 1997 when Yahoo first introduced their web email application, Yahoo Mail to the public. The growth of the cloud & computing is expected to create 2.4 million jobs in the next four years in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, according to Cloudtweaks.com. The prediction comes from a report released by IT company, EMC and a United Kingdom think tank.

Welcome to the information age!

The internet has led to a new age in business…the information age and the birth of the information worker. Today we access and are exposed to more information in one day than a person in 1890 was exposed to in his/her entire life. As Americans, we are exposed to the equivalent of 200 newspapers every day worth of information. This has grown 600 times since 1986 when the internet first began transmitting information over the world wide web. In 1993, it was estimated that the internet carried only one percent of the information flowing through existing telecommunications channels. By 2007 the internet is estimated to account for ninety-seven percent of all telecommunications information. This is why more and more companies are flocking to the internet to get and keep more business.

So how does this affect my business bottom line?

What this does is accelerate the learning process and in response the evolution of business. The worker of the modern age, and well into the foreseeable future, will be the information worker. That is a person who doesn’t necessarily have a tremendous amount of experience, but has the tools and know-how to get and assimilate more information than their coworkers. With the economic slowdown, globalization and other pressures forcing small and medium sized businesses to innovate and collaborate with their teams more effectively to stay competitive (with the right tools), the information worker will be able to get and use more information than their once more experienced more qualified predecessors. The new worker won’t be the most qualified or knowledgeable, but the one that is able to assimilate the massive amount of information that will be thrust upon them in this new age. Companies can adopt cloud technologies or Hybrid Cloud technologies to provide a more user friendly environment for their information worker centric staff. Whereas three to four years ago, these type of environments were only reserved for enterprise organizations.

My Staff… What should I expect?

The eco-boomers are here.  They are tech savvy and are loyal to themselves, not your company. They are more likely to switch jobs every 1-3 years than any other generation before them. What does this tell us…invest in your onboarding and training process, automate and streamline everything to insure that you don’t spend a moment more on training new staff members than you need to. The eco-boomers are called this because their size rivals the baby bomber generation, their predecessors that fueled the industrial revolution and created companies like Johnson & Johnson, Ford, and GE. This group is entering the workforce at an incredible rate and looking for the tools that they are used to using in their everyday life. They are a generation of gadgets and applications, they are used to sharing on the fly and being mobile and accessible. Our recommendation is, give them what they need to be productive and they will turn into some of the best players on your team, leave them behind or fail to engage them and they will move on and up to a company that can service their instant gratification mentalities.

Last month Symantec, makers of Norton security products, revealed the results of their 2011 State of the Cloud Survey, which examined how firms are adoption cloud computing. What they found is that less than twenty percent of companies were prepared or extremely prepared for a move to the cloud. This is due to the lack of experience in cloud computing, although research found a high level of interest (71 to 87 percent) in how the cloud could impact their business. This is par for the business course with the adoption of cloud technologies. A lack of understanding of business cloud technologies or a misunderstanding of how secure or accessible information is leads to hesitation or misunderstanding of the technology. Another key factor is a disconnect between the IT department and executive leadership within an organization. How many times have we seen a business decision maker open a business, develop a key business process, then call on the IT department to support a mission critical application that runs the entire business. It seems to end in the IT department, but more times than not, it does not start there.

What Can Cloud Computing Do For My Business?

Cloud computing can lower both OpEx and CapEx costs. The billing model for cloud computing is pay as you go, where a traditional IT environment  would have you over subscribe to resources so you can prepare for an increase or decrease in personnel. A cloud IT environment can purchase only what they need based off the number of users.  This provides cost predictability and tighter budgeting for IT resources.

Going Green?

This is a big advantage over internal IT infrastructure. Hosted environments with shared resources use about 60% less power than distributed models. This leads to less energy consumption as a whole.  In addition, companies may opt to travel less and perform more online meetings with video conferencing to save money and collaborate with customers and vendors more frequently.
