[...] Reclaim Your Twitter Links April 14, 2009 – No Comments If you haven’t already, you may want to add my RSS feed – it’s standard-tasticOn the one hand, I love the Tweetmeme plugin for Wordpress, I think it does an amazing job of letting your visitors easily retweet your blogpost. It looks really nice, it’s really easy to install and it even tracks the number of retweets you get. In short, it’s simple and effective. On the other hand though, I hate it. I really, really hate it. When people hit the retweet button, it doesn’t retweet me – it retweets @techmeme. I can’t style the button, I have to use theirs. And I really, really hate the fact that my links get retweeted with a bit.ly URL shortener.

Great post and best discussion I’ve seen on this topic to date. Historically, anything that dilutes links to content works against long term SEO objectives.

Also worth considering is the dilution of the domain from a marketing and branding point of view…additionally meaningful if the destination becomes popular virally through twitter and other platforms. (pre click trust and recognition)

I happen to agree with pageoneresults’ prediction that at this point in time URL shortening is a trend to resist from both SEO and user perspectives.

As I posted into Sphinn, i’m replicating here:

It’s an interesting research. I want to test it to see if it occurs into some indexed sites already. I mean, I’ll try to link with and without a anchor text from a indexed domain.

I’ll let you know about my tests.
