Social Media Sharing Strategy: If All You Share Is _____ You’re Doing It Wrong
If all you’re doing is sharing selfies, you’re doing it wrong.
If all you do is share quotes, you’re doing it wrong.

The Hat Farm: An Example of Social Enterprise Using Instagram || Eps 29 #InTheLab
Born out of necessity the Hat Farm has grown into an amazing example of Social Enterprise.
The Hat Farm started at Carmichael Outreach in Regina. Carmichael Outreach is a place where people can get clothing, food, a cup of coffee, help with housing, drug addiction, plus pretty much anything else people need when they have no where else to turn. In 2014 Carmichael Outreach served 53,689 meals to people in Regina. In 2015 it’s looking like that number will be closer to 70,000. They’re growing, and that’s not a good thing. I mean it is great people who maybe weren’t getting a meal last year have the chance to but as an organization they can’t just keep growing. Read more
20 of the Most Difficult “Regina” Keyword Searches in Google [Top 10 Google SERP included]
Your search results are wrong. Well not exactly, but kind of. Google personalizes your search results based on your search history and location. To get a true look at the top search results in Google you have to turn off your cookies or use a service like Moz (the company we use).
Before we get into the 20 top Regina keyword searches we need to define a few terms for you.
Domain Authority
From Moz (formerly known as SEO Moz): “Domain Authority represents Moz’s best prediction for how a website will perform in search engine rankings.”
- Based on 40 different signals Moz measures, including linking root domains, number of total links, MozRank, MozTrust, etc.
- It’s a logarithmic scale so going from 10 to 20 is significantly easier than going from 60 to 70.
- It’s a relative measurement for predicting Google search results. It’s better to compare Domain Authority to other websites than simply using it to track a single websites’ success.
Page Authority
From Moz: “Page Authority is Moz’s calculated metric for how well a given webpage is likely to rank in Google.com’s search results.”
- Based on 100 measured variables Moz tracks
- Also a logarithmic scale, going from 10 to 20 will be easier than going from 50 to 60.
- Page Authority differs from Domain authority as the former measures how well a single page will rank in Google and the later predicts the overall performance of your website in Google.
External Linking Domains
External Linking Domain are hyperlinks on websites pointing back towards your website.
- Top SEOs believe that external links are the most important source of Google ranking power.
- Links to your website act as votes to search engines. The more votes you get, the more valuable your website appears to Google

We Love SYPE and You Should Too
Saskatchewan Young Professionals and Entrepreneurs (SYPE), is a group of young, influential business minded folks who are the future leaders of our economic powerhouse of a province. That’s correct, these people are moving AND shaking. Last Thursday night SYPE hosted their Movember Gala.
It turns out that we not only attended but I (Jeph) ended up winning Mustache of the year. Ironically, Derek Wu, Brandon’s brother, proudly won the worst mustache of the year, which might I add, came down to a sock off which Derek prevailed.
The night was a hoot to say the least.
If you haven’t been to a SYPE event, try one out or if you want to get involved in a major way, join the board. Read more
