Brie E Anderson (me!) covers Digital Marketing News from Jan 13 - 19, 2020.   Stories Covered: http://bit.ly/flip-brie3  In this video, I talk about YouTube showing up in the Search Engine Result Pages more often than Wikipedia and what that should mean for your content marketing plans.   I also touch on the roll-out of some new LinkedIn features (including LinkedIn Live) for pages and why I think that LinkedIn may be shifting some focus to the little man.   I talk Pinterest and why I believe it is an untapped market,  ESPECIALLY after passing Snapchat in user numbers.   I go into what little is known about the January 2020 Core Update from Google and some best practices when it comes to dealing with Core Updates.   Lastly, I cover a story in which a TikTok video led to many negative reviews on Google for a doctor and what that doc's plan of action should be.   Follow me on Twitter: http://bit.ly/briecapTW Let's connect on LinkedIn: http://bit.ly/briecap-LI --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
