PubSub: the Newest CooperKatz Client
As my three loyal readers know, since I started this blog back in April I have struggled whether or not I should blog about my employer's clients. The reason is simple - I don't want you to feel that I am using this site solely as a platform to build their visibility. My policy to date is when it's appropriate, I subtly refer to them. I am writing this post in the interest of remaining transparent.
I am pleased to announced that CooperKatz is now representing PubSub. We are very excited about this company and its prospects. PubSub has developed a robust platform that scans millions of sites continually and provides email and RSS alerts once a keyword is matched. The CK account team generated its first PubSub media interview with CNET News.com today.
If you feel that this blog's content should change now that we are working with PubSub, please do leave a comment to this post or email me at steverubel@gmail.com.
UPDATED: PRWeek.com has posted a story that adds more color and comments from our esteemed SVP, Anne Green.
Yes, Steve. I think you need to start making lots of posts that say how great pubsub is. Actually, I think you already display a high standard of disclosure whenever you mention one of your firm's clients. As for me, I'll keep burying links in the text of my posts to affiliate stores I've set up.

I have no hesitation about blogging about my clients and former clients. I figure if I don't consider them newsworthy, why should editors? I just tell my readers that the subject is one of my clients. No one comes to a PR blog expecting Lincoln Steffens or Peter Zenger.

You are on your right to write whatever you want, specially when it is newsworthy: A new client for your posts! Wow! Congrats.

Maybe you could share some inside knowledge on what is going on with the PubSub rankings these days? A lot of blogs are taking steep drops in hits, which is a little odd looking. Would be cool to know what is going on, bug-bashing? See Kullins post here:
