                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Lake Leelanau, MI (PRWeb) December 5, 2006 -- Lisa Wehr, CEO of Oneupweb, the online search marketing and corporate podcasting leader, today released The Value of Podcasting for Search Marketers, the first white paper to address the connection between Search Engine Optimization/Search Engine Marketing (SEO/SEM) and corporate podcasting. The free white paper is available in the <a href="http://www.oneupweb.com/search-marketing-results/white-papers.htm?source=pr_value_pod_sem" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="Library">Library</a> of <a href="http://www.oneupweb.com?source=pr_value_pod_sem" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="Oneupweb.com">Oneupweb.com</a>.



&quot;As a leader in online search marketing and the only major SEO/SEM firm that offers podcast production, tracking and marketing services, we believe it&#039;s important to raise awareness in our industry of how search marketing campaigns can incorporate podcasting for even greater effectiveness,&quot; says <a href="http://www.oneupweb.com/about_us/team.htm?source=pr_value_pod_sem" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="Lisa Wehr">Lisa Wehr</a>. &quot;While many of the same search principles and best practices apply, there are some vital differences. Plus our paper outlines opportunities for both natural optimization and paid search campaign strategies.&quot;
 
First, few podcasts are optimized, missing the opportunity to be properly indexed in podcast directories and search engines. Additionally, search engine results linking to podcast XML feeds need user-friendly webpage designs that help the audience know what to do to access the podcasts. Podcasts also represent an opportunity to increase an organization&#039;s content and inbound links. <a href="http://www.oneupweb.com/search-marketing-results/white-papers.htm?source=pr_value_pod_sem" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="The Value of Podcasting for Search Marketers">The Value of Podcasting for Search Marketers</a> describes how various corporate departments can use podcasting to build more website content from current webpages and materials. And discusses how podcast production values (voice, music, video) can enliven a brand personality, attracting inbound links and encouraging listeners to become brand advocates through the viral nature of podcast file-sharing.  

Secondly, podcasts also improve paid search activities, helping to attract and qualify customers, build customer relationships and mange marketing efforts. Podcast downloads, the paper stresses, are a popular means of inducing a paid click-through, engaging potential customers and keeping prospects connected to the company after the click. The on-demand nature of podcasting extends the impact of paid advertising without adding to the cost. 

Finally, this new white paper looks at what Oneupweb&#039;s growing podcast tracking database can tell search marketers about consumer behavior and how to structure podcast content, timing and placement for the greatest effectiveness. 

&quot;Our industry hasn&#039;t even scratched the surface,&quot; notes Lisa Wehr.  &quot;Clearly anyone who is engaged in search marketing can profit from reading the paper.  And we hope it generates discussion at next week&#039;s Search Engine Strategies conference in Chicago.&quot; Oneupweb will be offering disks of the paper at its booth #213.

Previously, marketers had to rely on less-than-accurate statistics from directories or server log files or even asking listeners to install software on their mobile players that would report usage back to the client.  &#8220;We couldn&#8217;t find anyone offering this level of tracking, so we invented it,&#8221; says Oneupweb CEO, Lisa Wehr.  Oneupweb is the only podcast producer offering this level of tracking (often called metrics or analytics), a critical component in the ongoing evaluation of ROI for marketers.

With PodTractor&#8482;, producers and marketers can:

-	Inform management &#38; minimize second guessing
-	Use strategic keywords to attract a larger, preferred audience
-	Use tracking for optimizing their podcast on search engine results pages
-	Coordinate pay-per-click or other advertising around popular podcast search terms
-	Consolidate their online marketing tracking in one place for greater consistency and accountability
-	Save time and costly duplication

Lake Leelanau, MI (PRWEB) June 5, 2006 -- Oneupweb, the <a href="http://www.oneupweb.com?source=pr_sus_pod" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="trusted leader in search engine optimization and online marketing">trusted leader in search engine optimization and online marketing</a>, today announced the launch of its podcast series, <a href="http://www.oneupweb.com/podcast/podcast_home.htm?source=pr_sus_pod" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="StraightUpSearch">StraightUpSearch</a>. where marketing pros, including Oneupweb CEO Lisa Wehr, dish out humorous perspectives on Google, poorly designed Web sites, free online marketing tools and other oddities of online marketing.  Six episodes in the weekly series are currently available free at Oneupweb.com, StraightUpSearch.com, iTunes and Yahoo! Podcasts.

&#8220;We have a lot of fun working, and so we laugh a lot on our podcasts.  We don&#8217;t sugar coat our commentary&#8212;we speak up about what&#8217;s ridiculous, as well as what works,&#8221; says Wehr. &#8220;We are also quite serious when it comes to providing vital, useful advice during the show.  Listeners will learn something important and topical in every episode.&#8221;

The format is a free-form, entertaining discussion of pertinent, timely, online marketing matters, divided into four segments:

What Were They Thinking?
Oneupweb calls out Web site usability blunders&#8212;no holds barred and no one spared.  From the Vatican to Southwest Airlines, if Oneupweb uncovers your bungled Web site, expect the spotlight to make you sweat.  For the rest of the subscribers, it&#8217;s a lighthearted anti-case study or a valuable lesson in what not to do.

Google Rant
Not afraid to toss a well-spoken stone at Google&#8217;s forehead, Oneupweb pros share their unabridged advice on Google&#8217;s actions.  Pros teach you how to be cautious, what to watch for and how to use Google services to your best advantage.  

Cool Tool
These are bionic parts for marketing plans. Oneupweb shares and reviews free online tools to help marketers and search engine optimization experts do their jobs better, faster, easier.  

Random Keyword Search
Unscripted, irreverent, shocking.  What do you get when you search for _______?  Don&#8217;t expect politically correct edits here.  While Oneupweb won&#8217;t have any wardrobe malfunctions (avoiding that explicit rating), they do find some interesting, appalling, hysterical results for some seemingly safe searches like, &#8220;fuzzy bunny.&#8221;

                        <itunes:subtitle>Oneupweb Podcasts Speak Out on Search Engine Optimization &#38; Integrated Marketing</itunes:subtitle>
                        <itunes:summary><![CDATA[
Lake Leelanau, MI (PRWEB) June 5, 2006 -- Oneupweb, the <a href="http://www.oneupweb.com?source=pr_sus_pod" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="trusted leader in search engine optimization and online marketing">trusted leader in search engine optimization and online marketing</a>, today announced the launch of its podcast series, <a href="http://www.oneupweb.com/podcast/podcast_home.htm?source=pr_sus_pod" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="StraightUpSearch">StraightUpSearch</a>. where marketing pros, including Oneupweb CEO Lisa Wehr, dish out humorous perspectives on Google, poorly designed Web sites, free online marketing tools and other oddities of online marketing.  Six episodes in the weekly series are currently available free at Oneupweb.com, StraightUpSearch.com, iTunes and Yahoo! Podcasts.

&#8220;We have a lot of fun working, and so we laugh a lot on our podcasts.  We don&#8217;t sugar coat our commentary&#8212;we speak up about what&#8217;s ridiculous, as well as what works,&#8221; says Wehr. &#8220;We are also quite serious when it comes to providing vital, useful advice during the show.  Listeners will learn something important and topical in every episode.&#8221;

The format is a free-form, entertaining discussion of pertinent, timely, online marketing matters, divided into four segments:

What Were They Thinking?
Oneupweb calls out Web site usability blunders&#8212;no holds barred and no one spared.  From the Vatican to Southwest Airlines, if Oneupweb uncovers your bungled Web site, expect the spotlight to make you sweat.  For the rest of the subscribers, it&#8217;s a lighthearted anti-case study or a valuable lesson in what not to do.

Google Rant
Not afraid to toss a well-spoken stone at Google&#8217;s forehead, Oneupweb pros share their unabridged advice on Google&#8217;s actions.  Pros teach you how to be cautious, what to watch for and how to use Google services to your best advantage.  

Cool Tool
These are bionic parts for marketing plans. Oneupweb shares and reviews free online tools to help marketers and search engine optimization experts do their jobs better, faster, easier.  

Random Keyword Search
Unscripted, irreverent, shocking.  What do you get when you search for _______?  Don&#8217;t expect politically correct edits here.  While Oneupweb won&#8217;t have any wardrobe malfunctions (avoiding that explicit rating), they do find some interesting, appalling, hysterical results for some seemingly safe searches like, &#8220;fuzzy bunny.&#8221;
