Understanding Search Engine Optimization

Self promotion

as opposed to self adulation

Do you know the difference between self promotion and self adulation?

Some time ago I wrote an article for Squidlog, which was prompted by a blog post I read on Copyblogger: The art of shameless self promotion. In the article Nathan Hagan defines Self Promotion as:

the art of spreading ideas, concepts, and a greater vision

Self-adulation is:

just the promotion of accomplishments, deeds that have already been done

Squid Etiquette gives tips on how to promote yourself and your lenses on Squidoo, without falling into the trap of over promoting either yourself or your lenses and How to become popular on Squidoo gives great advice about how you can participate in the Squidoo Community.

Yes, spam and self adulation are two different things, though it is a thin line from one to the other. Thanks for featuring a few of my lenses here :)
