What will the B2B company of the future look like?
Marketing automation. Behavioral targeting. "Day-parting." If these concepts aren't part of your strategy, they soon will be, according to an executive roundtable at ABM's 2013 Annual Conference. The panel debated the changing value proposition of B2B media, including whether B2B will continue to be organized as editorial enterprises or if it is morphing into something new.

When every page is a homepage
Reuters has unveiled a preview site for the future look and design of Reuters.com. It's a river-of-news approach that mirrors the flow of data on one of Reuters terminals, but has also become increasingly popular in the era of social media. If every page is your homepage, why not treat them all like one?

Where did all the search traffic go?
Search traffic to publishers has taken a dive in the last eight months, with traffic from Google dropping more than 30% from August 2012 through March 2013, according to research done by BuzzFeed. We can draw a lot of assumptions but few conclusions from the drop in search traffic. It's probably safe to say that user behavior is changing, and we are seeing a shift in the way readers discover their content.

Microsoft Surface captures a sliver of tablet market
Research firm IDC says Microsoft shipped about 900,000 Surface RT and Surface Pro tablets in the first quarter of the year. That was enough to claim a fifth place ranking on IDC's latest worldwide tablet tracker, but with a very low percentage of the tablet market — just 1.8 percent.

How do RSS users share content?
Digg and Feedly, which are hoping to lure users of Google's soon-to-be-discontinued Reader to their competing RSS services, both posted the results of surveys this week in which they asked current Google Reader users how they share content. A theme that comes through in both surveys is that RSS users still often rely on email.

Reverse product placement and other innovations
We've been following the trend of brands becoming publishers – aka content marketing – for a while now. It's time for publishers to start acting like brands by adopting a more customer-centric approach. Publishers that think differently – and much more broadly – about their audience's needs will find many new opportunities for innovation.

Blackberry CEO predicts demise of tablets
Blackberry CEO Thorsten Heins said the popularity of tablet computers may wane, an indication the company may shelve a follow-up to its ill- fated PlayBook device. "In five years I don't think there'll be a reason to have a tablet anymore," Heins said in an interview Tuesday at the Milken Institute conference. "Tablets themselves are not a good business model."

Customer data is key to to B2B media success
Data was a prevalent theme at ABM's Annual Conference this week. Sessions repeatedly hit on the growing importance of customer data as a key to cross-platform media success. The opportunity for publishers is to better understand and harness their own data to solve the needs and pain points of their customers.

Native advertising is a means to an end
So much of the discussion around native advertising is narrowly focused on placement and less on the value of a brand's presence for consumers. The real opportunity in native is about a chance to move away from the old-school model of extracting value from readers in favor of starting a conversation with them through great content.

Digital agencies launch their own 'newsrooms'
As the lines between advertising and editorial continue to blur online, newsrooms are sprouting at digital agencies. The idea is to marry journalism and marketing to promote clients (or themselves) by producing what's sometimes called "brand journalism." The question is whether editorial with marketing under the hood can get much mileage with consumers.

How to fix Twitter's misinformation problem
One of Twitter's enduring drawbacks is that there's no reliable way to issue corrections with the service. To address the lack of a correction function, an independent developer has built a tool called Retweet Retract. Until a more polished solution comes along, it's not a bad option.

Lousy vs. Great Images on your Landing Page: 5pm Eastern

Mel,

A picture IS worth 1000 words. But only some pictures. Not all! Some pictures are worth zero words. Some pictures kill your sales, kill your opt-ins, put your customers to sleep.

Today Bnonn Tenant will serve up major "aha" moments about the images you use on your landing page. He'll show you why most companies' choice of images is plain ridiculous.

Today he will showcase *dozens* of examples of both lousy and great landing page photos. A gallery of awful advertising, a parade of greatness.

Date: Today April 30

Time: 5pm Eastern / 4pm Central / 2pm Pacific / 22:00 London

Link bait: A fine line between aggressive and dishonest
Any publisher worth its salt is schooled in SEO, and yet there are some tactics like blatant bait and switch that are verboten. One man's link bait is another's smart content strategy. A publisher's job is to generate audience attention that can be transferred then to advertisers. How that's done is, in many ways, irrelevant from the buy side.
