Are qr codes still worth the effort.
-
I Have a client who is interested in qr codes. Not by my suggestion. I haven't heard much about them lately and was wonder if anyone thinks its worth the time.
If you think they are, then where is "the" place to get them at a reasonable cost?

Hi Diegopp, it looks like you might have a relation to this service you're promoting. If you do have a relation, could you please disclose the relation? Thanks!
Also, it looks like this post was an abstract of http://www.cnet.com/news/qr-codes-arent-useless-after-all-nielsen-study-says/, where the original posters might want to go to find more information.

Hi there, this article will help you take you own decision: http://uqr.me/2014/07/study-says-qr-codes-actually-useful/

I agree with Yiannis.
Just use a free online qr code creator, copy, and paste it into your design. It does not take much effort, time, or money.

Hi Nathan,
Not sure what you mean by the "place to get them at a reasonable cost"? there are plenty online QR code generators where you can create as many as you like for free.
In regards to your question there is no one-size fits all answer as to if it "worth the time". It depends the product, the market and how creative you are.
For example I have see QR codes on the train stations that have been very useful for train delays etc and have seen some random ones on building roofs which I am sure the only reason I notice them is because I am an on-line marketer, otherwise I would have probably just passed.
Hope this helps!

Will editorial links with UTM parameters marked as utm_source=affiliate still pass link juice?
Occasionally some of our clients receive editorial mentions and links in which the author adds utm parameters to the outbound links on their blog. The links are always natural, never compensated, and followed. However, they are sometimes listed as utm_source=affiliate even thought we have no existing affiliate relationship with the author. My practice has been to ask the author to add a rel="norewrite" attribute to the link to remove any trace of the word affiliate. I have read that utm parameters do not affect link juice transfer, however, given the inaccurate "affiliate" source, I wouldn't want Google to misunderstand and think that we are compensating people for followed editorial links. Should I continue following this practice, or is it fine to leave these links as they are? Thanks!

Multiview - Are they worth or can I do it myself?
Hi, I'm new to the Moz Community here although I have visited this site quite a few times. Recently my company has been contacted by MultiView for a B2B marketing strategy to get our business in front of targeted and potential customers - based on behavior of website visitors - basically behavior based marketing and inbound lead summary. Are you all familiar with what Multiview does? If not, I can explain some more. But, I have a couple questions: Are they actually what they claim to be? Are they a trustworthy company? Is there a way I can do everything they are telling me with the getting particular ads in front of people based on behaviors (similar to AdWords, but this seems more in depth) and detailed info for the visitors to my site (actually see who they are)? I realize this may take more work on my part than having them do it. But, is there a way I can collect this info myself and do all this work myself? Behavior based campaigns and this sort of thing are new to me, as I haven't worked with this before for my company. So, any and all info is appreciated! Thanks!

Does Google still have a standard search result? How can I get it?
I have heard a lot from the experts that there are no "Standard" Google search results anymore. They said that most of the SERP's of Google that show up are customized/tailored for each individuals even if they are not logged-in using their Google Custom Search. My questions are, Is there still a way to retrieve the standard Google search result? How? Are these scripts will be helpful when searching on Google? *webhp?
