14 "PR & SEO" Tweetable Tips

What’s the role of public relations when it comes to search engine optimization? When PR thinks SEO, we often talk about jamming keywords into press releases, headlines or blog posts. In reality, overstuffing keywords actually damages search rankings. But, there are a whole host of other ways PR — specifically social media — and SEO can support each other.

Special guest Lee Odden schooled imparted his knowledge on all of us, offering a number of tips, tools and action items. Below are some of my favorites tweetable moments from Lee, with nuggets from other chat participants sprinkled in.
