The first Thanksgiving celebration is believed to have taken place in 1621, when Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians got together and celebrated the autumn harvest. The tradition continued for many years, but it wasn’t a national holiday until President Abraham Lincoln officially declared it during the Civil War.
Today, Thanksgiving has many meanings, based on various family traditions. It can be anything from watching football, to eating juicy turkey or reuniting with family members we don’t see often. For some, it may even mean getting to bed early in order to get the best sales at the mall on Black Friday, or now Black Thursday!]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.websuccessteam.com/WSTblog/2011/11/thanksgiving-cyber-monday/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>3</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Is SEO Really Dead?

The fuel that drives the traditional SEO engine is still relevant, from keyword-rich website content, code to content ratio and optimization, to being Google compliant. However, today search engines are paying increasing attention to an online social activity. Consistent social engagement indicates that a website is an active participant in commerce and is not just a content generator or link farm.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.websuccessteam.com/WSTblog/2011/11/seo-morphed-social-superhero/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>19</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Black Friday &amp; Cyber Monday – Get Social and Sell!</title><link>http://www.websuccessteam.com/WSTblog/2011/11/black-friday-cyber-monday/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=black-friday-cyber-monday</link> <comments>http://www.websuccessteam.com/WSTblog/2011/11/black-friday-cyber-monday/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 15 Nov 2011 23:41:22 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>WebSuccessTeam</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Business]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Customer Relations]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Facebook]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Facebook Fan Page]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Facebook Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Mobile Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Online Customer Service]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Online Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Social Media Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Twitter]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Twitter Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Web Success News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Amazon Cyber Monday]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Black Friday]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Cyber Monday]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Deals]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Get Social]]></category> <category><![CDATA[QR Codes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Shopping]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Shopping Deals]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Shoppping Trends]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Target]]></category> <category><![CDATA[thanksgiving]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Twitter and Facebook Mobile]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Walmart]]></category><guid

Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, offers lucrative savings to entice people to hit the stores and buy gifts for Christmas or other holidays. Cyber Monday has also become increasingly popular since people can find what they need all with the clicks of a few buttons. Online marketing has been playing an integral role in the promotion of these savings events and consumers have been getting good at ferreting out the biggest savings with the help of social media marketing. ]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.websuccessteam.com/WSTblog/2011/11/black-friday-cyber-monday/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Job Search: Facebook vs. LinkedIn</title><link>http://www.websuccessteam.com/WSTblog/2011/10/job-search-facebook-vs-linkedin/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=job-search-facebook-vs-linkedin</link> <comments>http://www.websuccessteam.com/WSTblog/2011/10/job-search-facebook-vs-linkedin/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 28 Oct 2011 17:28:11 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>WebSuccessTeam</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Business]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Lead Generation]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Personal Branding]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Social Media Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Web Success]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Web Success News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[careerbuilder.com]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Facebook]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Job Opportunities]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Job Recruiters]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Job Search]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Jobvite]]></category> <category><![CDATA[linkedin]]></category> <category><![CDATA[monster.com]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Online Recruiting]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Professional Connections]]></category> <category><![CDATA[social media]]></category><guid

Major job search websites such as monster.com or careerbuilder.com have less impact as social media has transitioned into becoming the front runner for online recruiting. Recruiters are now heavily relying on social media platforms such as LinkedIn and Facebook to locate qualified candidates based on their skills and connections. Since about half of the US population is active in social media, it makes sense that they would be used not only for personal uses, but also for professional ones as well.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.websuccessteam.com/WSTblog/2011/10/job-search-facebook-vs-linkedin/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Web Success Team Goes to E3 2011</title><link>http://www.websuccessteam.com/WSTblog/2011/06/web-success-team-e3-2011/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=web-success-team-e3-2011</link> <comments>http://www.websuccessteam.com/WSTblog/2011/06/web-success-team-e3-2011/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 09 Jun 2011 16:31:28 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>WebSuccessTeam</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Facebook Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Online Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Social Media Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Twitter]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Twitter Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Web Success News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Brands]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Community Forums]]></category> <category><![CDATA[E3]]></category> <category><![CDATA[E3 2011]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Electronic Entertainment Expo]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Facebook]]></category> <category><![CDATA[linkedin]]></category> <category><![CDATA[marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[QR Codes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Snakebyte]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Snakebyte USA]]></category> <category><![CDATA[social media]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Social Media Success]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Sunflex]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Web Success]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Web Success Team]]></category><guid
