Link Building with Blog Comments
August 20, 2008 | Leave a Comment
A powerful way to quickly build inbound links to your website is to comment on other peoples relevant blog’s with interesting and useful commentary. However due to spamdexing or comment spam many of the blog’s and guestbook’s out there today have introduced the use of the no follow (rel=”nofollow”) tag.
While this doesn’t always prevent me from commenting on topics that I find interesting or relevant to the content of my website it does help to regularly post to blog’s that not only do not have a nofollow tag but also have some page rank.
There is a free tool called Comment Kahuna that simplifies a lot of the process and makes building links and traffic that much simpler. It will automatically scan for blog posts on sites that do not use the nofollow tag and sort the results by the blog’s page rank.
Use of the tool on a regular basis can generate a lot of traffic, not only from the blog itself but your rise in rankings for you keywords due to the extra inbound links. You’ll be able to find high authority niche blog’s and get free backlinks.
Finding relevant blogs to comment on however is just the first part of building quality backlinks. Finding something interesting and useful to say is also part of the process.
This is where it helps that you have built your website around a topic or subject that you find interesting. Read through the post, even if its just a speed reading quick scan and get the overall feel for the blogger’s perspective on the subject. If you have any familiarity with the subject matter you should be able to quickly come up with a two or three sentence response.
If you aren’t really familiar with the subject matter it is possible to copy a sentence from within the blog post, paste it into the comment box and reword it as if you are agreeing with whatever was being discussed.
That is not a technique that I use often as I tend to build websites around topics that I would want to read blog posts about and I recommend to clients that they do the same.
While writing an interesting comment is important as that is what determines whether or not your comment actually gets published upon review, your name is also very important as this is going to be your anchor text for the link back to your website.
Many people make the mistake of actually typing in their real name in this field. This is where the keywords should go that you want your website to rank highly for as that is how the search engines will interpret the link.
Depending on a blog’s page rank your link can be indexed quickly and you will soon see the power of building backlinks through commenting on relevant blog posts.

How Social Multimedia Helps Your Website Grow
August 20, 2008 | Leave a Comment
I’m sure someone somewhere has already coined the phrase social multimedia, but I haven’t seen it yet. You hear plenty about social networking and social bookmarking but what is social multimedia and more importantly, why should you care?
As you likely already know social networking is building a network of friends using social networking type websites. This would include sites like…
* Facebook
* Squidoo
* Myspace
* Twitter
* Friendster
All of which you should consider in your Internet Marketing campaigns.
Social bookmarking is saving your favorite URL’s in a place where you can find them easily on the Internet. One of the nice things about this process is that people who view your profile will stay connected with you especially if you focus your bookmarks on the specific niche target for which they are interested; which just so happens to be what your website creatives focus on as well. Sites that fit in this category would include…
* DIGG
* Dropjack
* Propeller
* Technorati
* StumbleUpon
Which are also all important to your Internet Marketing strategies.
But what is Social Multimedia and how does this help your Internet Marketing success?
Ever hear of YouTube? Yes it’s a video website but really it’s much more than that. It combines content (audio) and visual (video) together as one for people to use.
The problem with written documentation is that overall people are lazy and won’t take the time to read unless they are seriously interested in the topic. Problem solved with audio information.
The problem with audio content though is that you don’t necessarily hold the full attention of your audience as they can quite easily do other things at the same time. Problem solved when you capture their attention with video.
And while I would certainly use the services of YouTube there are several other social multimedia websites that I would consider as well. Here are just a few…
* GodTube
* Google Video
* BlinkX
* LiveLeak
* Spike
* PhotoBucket
* Veoh
* JibJab
* MyVideo
* GoFish
And, of course…
* YouTube
You don’t need to use all these services as once to promote your videos, but the more targets you have pointing at your website the better your results will be on the search engines.
Was this social multimedia article helpful? See an innovative example @ http://Search-Engine-Optimization-And-Beyond.info. Here’s a site promotion audio file http://search-engine-optimization-and-beyond.com/A-Audios/single/SitePromotionWithDigi.htm

A Different Way To Make Your Articles Work For You
August 19, 2008 | Leave a Comment
I think it’s a pretty well-established fact that article marketing is a great way to promote your business. But, it may not have occurred to you that there are also other ways in which you might use your articles to grow your business.
This is not for one second to suggest that you should stop submitting to directories but to point out to you that there are other things that you could be doing as well.
Here are some examples:
You could approach authority sites in your niche and offer to write for them directly in return for using a resource box at the end of anything you write for them.
With the use of any simple microphone you could speak and convert your article into audio. There are a number of free tools available that would allow you to convert this into a podcast that could be submitted to all of the podcast directories.
The above ideas are good but this next one is probably the most powerful alternative way to use your writing skills. You could barter your writing services for other things that you require to help you to build your business. This could include things like graphics, website design, video, programming or all manner of other things that you may need to help you with your business.
Once you have a skill such as writing there are a number of things that you can do with it. You can sell your writing. You can use it to promote your business directly. These are definitely things you could be doing but an extremely powerful and mostly overlooked idea would be to use your writing skills as leverage to get professional work in the areas where you’re not 100% comfortable.
From talking to different people it seems to be an idea that only rarely occurs to people to barter what they’re good at in return for professional work of other types.
The Internet is an ideal context for barter. One of the main problems that a lot of marketers suffer with is trying to master too many skills. With this approach you could concentrate completely on what you are good at and use that skill of writing to directly get a high-quality work you need done in other areas.
Different people have different skills and maybe it’s time to embrace this and make it work for you.

Attract the Right Joint Venture Partners
August 18, 2008 | Leave a Comment
To find people to Joint Venture with, start with your MasterMind group. If they work in your niche, discuss ways you can work together to build your respective businesses. Whether they work in your niche or not, they have contacts that you don’t. They may be able to put you in touch with a valuable partner. Or know someone who can put you in touch with a good partner.
After you ask those you already know within your personal network, research your competition. Look for people in your market whose products would complement yours and your products would complement theirs. By the way, partnering with people outside your niche is futile. If you sell information about gardening, you’ll have poor response rates and angry customers if you start promoting information from a JV partner about Internet marketing.
Remember, the overriding goal is to provide the greatest value possible to your customers. Finding other quality products and letting your customers know about it shows them you care.
Think about it this way. Since they are in your market, they could find your competition on their own. But then you wouldn’t be able to make any money off that deal, your competitor wouldn’t be grateful to you for bringing them a new customer and your customer won’t be grateful to you for telling them about this other product. So the best way to beat your competition is to join them.
Contacting possible partners is as simple as sending an email, a letter or making a phone call. The point is to simply ask. If you never ask anyone to work with you and instead wait for them to approach you, you’ll be waiting a long time. In other words, take the initiative. Not everyone will have the time or inclination to work with you, but you need to develop the resolve to keep asking even if some people turn down your request. If you ask enough people, you’ll get the positive responses you’re seeking. You can increase the chances of people saying yes by doing two things:
1. Make the process simple. Do everything you can to make the process easy and painless. Sign them up for your affiliate program, write the sales copy for them and provide them with a checklist of things to do in order to maximize the profitability of the JV. The less work they have to do, the more willing they will be to promote you.
2. Focus on the benefits your partner will receive. Contacting them and asking if they can refer you to their list without the promise of receiving something in return kills the deal before it begins. But if you start by showing what’s in it for them and how they win through the arrangement, you are more likely to gain a JV partner.
All in all, the best way to find great Joint Venture partners is to be a great partner. Think about what you have to offer and get busy helping people. The more you give, the more you’ll get. Don’t wait to get or you may never succeed.

How to Improve Your Google Listing and Achieve a Higher Search Engine Ranking
August 15, 2008 | Leave a Comment
There are many ways in which you can improve your Google listing, and some work better than others depending on the type of website you have or on your niche. Here are ways in which you can get a higher Google ranking, or even a better search engine ranking in general.
We shall forget about onpage SEO such as use of meta tags and use of keywords since that has been done to death by now. There are other things that you can do to improve your search engine ranking, and among them are:
1. Put a site map on your website. You can generate an XML site map using any of several tools listed on Google, and a simple, search should enable you to find one. Once you have followed the instructions, you should submit the site map to Google and to Yahoo, and each will then be able to crawl your website without hindrance. It will also be updated each time the search engines crawl your site because XML sitemaps update as you add new pages to your site. Your site map should uploaded to the root directory of your website.
2. Start up a blog using one of the two main free blogging hosts, Blogger or Wordpress. In fact, why not use both and get the benefit of each? Blogger is owned by Google, so a Blogger blog is of particular benefit for Google listings. Put the URL of the pages of your website that you want promote on your blog, and these pages will be visited next time your blog is crawled.
3. Open an account with Technorati, and some of the other social bookmarking sites, and submit your blog to them. Ping them each time you make a new posting, and you will get good exposure to search engines whenever they visit these sites (which is very often).
4. Use social networking sites such as YouTube, MySpace and Facebook to advertise your blog, or even your website. In fact put both your blog and your website on these sites, and you will get one-way back-links to your site, thus improving your Google PageRank and search engine results positions.
5. Make sure that all of your links are open. Nothing ruins your Google listing than broken links, and you must test all of your links to make sure that they are all working. You aren’t expected to do that manually, and there is software available online to test your links for you.
6. Avoid reciprocal links like the plague, unless you have arranged them privately and both of you are happy with their positioning. Links farms, and large list pages on which you are at #259 on the SEO page, are not only useless with respect to any PageRank votes, but can actually do you harm. So steer clear of them. There are enough ways of securing one-way links without having to negotiate reciprocal links. These days are long gone.
7. Register with Google Webmaster Tools, and check out their analysis of your website. The software can detect broken links, but more importantly, can carry out other tasks such as making sure that only one form of your URL is recognized, and checking out your Meta tags. Although these are not used as much as previously, they are used or Google wouldn’t be checking them for you!
8. Register for a free Squidoo lens, and use your URL on that. Not simply just as a URL, but as a means of solving a problem. A Squidoo lens is like a mini-website, and you can use it to present a problem, and then your website as a solution. Not only does that get you one-way back-links to your choice of website page, but also the potential of loads of traffic: people that want their problem solved.
So there are eight methods of promoting your website and improving your search engine ranking. There e other ways to improve your Google listing, but these are very effective off site methods of doing so, other than 1 and 5 that are essential on-site techniques - even more important than meta tags and the correct html tags.
Apply each one of these and you should be rewarded with an improved Google listing, and your search engine ranking in general should be enhanced.
These are only eight methods of improving your Google listings, but SEOcious will provide you with many more methods of attaining a very high search engine ranking for your website.

How to Use Yahoo Answers to Get More Traffic to Your Website
August 14, 2008 | Leave a Comment
What is Yahoo answers?
Yahoo! Answers is a community-driven knowledge market website launched by Yahoo! on December 13, 2005 that allows users to both submit questions to be answered and answer asked questions from other users.[Wikipedia].
This can be a great tool to drive traffic to your website – by answering questions that are related to your web based business. You should not have your link to your website on every answer [the moderators from yahoo will see it as spam] but the more you establish yourself as a knowledgeable authority the more people will know you and eventually know your website.
It works like this:
The more quality answers that you provide the more points you get. For each answer you get 2 points. Answering questions and getting them starred are the most common way to get points [there are other ways].
You will start off at ‘level one’ - which means that you can only answer twenty questions a day, so choose your questions wisely. The more points you get the more levels you go up and that means you get to answer more questions on a daily basis.
How to get started?
First you will need to create an account with yahoo. It’s very simple and free.
Then go to Yahoo answers:
answers.yahoo.com
Start researching topics/categories that are related to your business. If you want quality traffic then you should ONLY be answering questions related to your business or industry. If you are an expert on men’s health and your website is about men’s health chances are you’ll find some Questions that are being posted by Yahoo Answers users that pertain to your niche, this is where you come in to show off your expertise.
Answering questions with high quality answers is already pre-selling to your potential customers, when people see you as the expert, when people see that you can provide a solution this gives you the oppotunity to pre-sell to your visitors and maybe just maybe make them your customers!

How to get Listed on Google in Two Days
August 14, 2008 | Leave a Comment
You can get listed on Google in two days, if you know how and luck is riding with you. In spite of what many might try to tell you, Google included, it is not difficult to get a quick listing of a new website within a couple of days. I recently got a nasty email from somebody who read one of my articles, and claimed it was impossible to get listed in less than 2 - 4 weeks. You know his reason? Google told him!
It’s guys like that who will never get anywhere online because they are unwilling to try stuff for themselves. They believe what they are told, and that is it. Nothing else can be possible, other than what they are told by others. I didn’t believe what I was told, which is how I found out how to get listed in less than 2 days. I now know of others that get listed in less than a day.
There are several ways to achieve that, and here are one or two that I have personally used:
1. Writing articles.
Write an article about your niche, and then include a link to a page on your website that you want listed. Google lists pages, and not whole domains, so you can write one article about every page on your site if you want them all listed! Now submit your article to a popular directory such as Buzzle, Ezine Articles or Article Dashboard. Once Google spiders one of these directories, your link will be picked up, and if your content is not duplicate you will be listed.
Google might claim you cannot appear on their SERPs in less than two weeks, but that is not so. I have been listed in under two days, and others I know have picked up their pages on Google in less than a day after submitting their articles. A lot is luck: if your article is published just as the directory is being spidered, then your URL will be picked up.
2. Blog Postings
If you have a blog that is listed on Google, then all you need do is to post the URL of your new site on your blog. Next time your blog is crawled the spider will follow your link and if your site is good enough then it will be listed. If you catch it at the right time, you could be listed same day as you made your blog post. If you don’t have a blog, ask a friend to allow you to put your website URL on their blog until you are listed. Then you can remove it.
3. Blog Comments
Make a comment to a popular blog, and include your URL. That might just stay live long enough for you to get noticed by a spider. If the blog does not allow links with their comments yours might just stay there long enough.
4. Ezine Submission
This might take a little longer due to the approval procedure, but you can submit an advert or even an article to an ezine pertaining to your niche. Ezines are spidered by search engines, and when they are your URL will be followed, leading to a potential listing on Google.
These are just four ways in which you can listed on Google in a lot less time than most people believe is possible. So if you are having problems getting listed, try one of these techniques, and you should be pleasantly surprised.

If you are like most article marketers, you are always looking for a new article directory to place your content in. Upon talking to some of the most successful authors, I have generated a list of essential and effective strategies for creating great articles that can really boost your success. Listed below are the details of these strategies:
1. Many authors on agree that one of the best ’sellers’ when it comes to successful articles is the ever-popular ‘how to’ genre. These articles are highly informative, detailed, and quick to get to the point. Generally, they are written in an easy to read, step by step matter. Everyone is an expert at something! You can compose ‘how to’ articles on anything from ‘how to treat acne at home’ to ‘how to create an outdoor Zen Garden’! The choices are virtually limitless when it comes to this type of approach in article writing.
2. Many individuals elect to compose articles that are comprised of numbered, lettered, or bulleted lists. When writing, you will find that these types of articles bring in a lot of page views! The standard list genre focuses on simplicity and getting to the point quickly. Readers will stay focused on this type of article and completely read through it as most of the lists are composed of sections that are relevant to one another.
3. If you want to analyze your niche from a professional stand point, you can write an article that is in the form of an interview. Naturally, the interview genre is based on an actual interview, but you can also make it in a generic, no names given, only titles, manner. Individuals who are interested in the subject matter that you are exploring will be very likely to stay in tune with this type of article in order to learn more!
4. Product review type articles are also quite popular when it comes to writing. When conducting the composition on a product review type article, it is always important to ensure that you take at least two articles and compare the advantages and disadvantages of both. A review is not nearly as effective as it could be if two objects are not compared.
5. Last, but certainly not least, the articles that are written from a personal account, story, or point of view is quite popular as long as they contain the proper amount of keywords. For example, if you have experience in Google Adsense, you could write about this. If you have experience repairing your credit, this can make for a great article! Just about any and all experiences make really informative articles!
If you want to write effective and successful articles, following the advice of other writers who have been successful there can be a great first step! By taking their experience and using the techniques that are proven to work, you can easily become a successful author.
