I've been playing with possibilities using the symbiocards
previously, i'd collected all site info into a db
http://cascoly.com/symbio/testsymbio.asp (http://cascoly.com/symbio/testsymbio.asp)
now that db lets you display the promoted keywords and categories for each site
------
my main goals now are to automatically collect the image info from each site & update the db, and then do the same with keywords
-----
this info will be freely available and I can add different searches & lists if there's interest
any other ideas for how this information can be used?
-
No idea yet how they could be used in other ways unles some has the idea of collecting lots of thumbnail sized pictures, not sure I like this use where they appear separated from the home, and thus marked, sites

any thumbnails are taken directly from the symbio produced csv files and thus have a direct link to the original site -- displaying them on another site both gives google backlink cred AND possible clicks to the actual site

leo's added a new fle in 2.3.7
symbiostock_keyword_info.csv in the root with other csv's
by itself you can use t to check your keywords, find misspellings, etc and see the distribution of your keywords.
i'll be writing a separate db that will collect keywords to allow keywords to be searched across all sites - showing # of images each site has with that keyword as a total and a %. I plan to set it up so you just enter your sitename and it will add/update your info to the database

I just tried to find where I can set up my promoted keywords. I was looking in user - my profile, symbiostock - autor options and symbiostock - marketing, but didn't find it ... perhaps it's just to late and I should get some sleep :D

Go to symbiostock-network, and below is "Promoted Keywords" field.
-
new searches online for frequency of keywords and keywords used across sites
http://symbiostock.cascoly.com (http://symbiostock.cascoly.com)
-
new searches online - i'vecollected, then totaled all keywords - there are about 15,000 in use
here are some new reports:
Show all promoted keywords alphabetically
•Show most popular keywords
•Show keywords used by most sites
•Show combined keywords alphabetically
http://symbiostock.cascoly.com (http://symbiostock.cascoly.com)
the idea for these isn't as much direct by users, rather to let you see what keywords are being used, and where there are gaps you can fill - both in promoted keywords and keywords in general
eg, you're in a crowd with keywords 'white', isolated' or 'illustration', but the field is wide open for 'restroom', 'warlock', and surprisingly 'seagulls'
(these reports only show those keywords with at least 10 uses.)
