SEO Tips, How to Improve Search Engine Optimization

By Ricardo d Argence

With search engines ranking as a top traffic driver for many blogs and content sites, optimizing a site for search engine exposure is an increasingly critical component of any online marketing effort.

Search engine optimization, or "SEO" is the method of applying technical and non technical techniques to a site to insure that the site appears on the list of search engine results when someone is looking for something that is featured on your site.

I did some online research and received some great tips from other site managers on how I could improve the SEO for my website, and I've distilled those tips into some basics that are relevant to any content site that wants more search engine traffic.

Many sites just starting up would have to focus more than I do on getting incoming links, which is how Google ranks sites (more inbound links = more authority).

Also, it's important that in seeking increased traffic, you don't go overboard with SEO-motivated site changes: if you create dummy pages and links just to increase your site's exposure for a particular keyword, Google will catch on and lower your ranking.

With these caveats in mind, here are some SEO tips to consider:

Get both inbound and outbound links. While Google ranks your sites importance on the number of inbound links coming from other sites, it gives much more weight to in links from authority sites.

Use headlines and title tags with the keywords up front. As you consider search engine optimization for your site, you should think about the most important keywords that people will use when searching for your site in Google.

The search engines seem to put more weight to keywords that show early in the page title. One of the drawbacks of using these keyword rich headlines is that you are unable to use the creativity that tabloid newspapers do.

3. Web addresses for your blog posts or articles should include keywords. Similarly, it's important that the URL for each story contains the keywords from your headline and even the category for the story.

4. Page descriptions should be unique or eliminated. If you grab the first sentence or use the same meta-description on every page, it's nowhere near as relevant as the description that Google can pull itself from your site, so, if your description is the same on all the pages, you are better off removing it and letting Google auto-generate it.

5. Highlight your best content on every page. One feature that is common on major news sites is a list of "Most Popular Stories" or "Most Emailed Stories." Having that list in a prominent place on your site, on all pages, would bring more traffic (and inbound links) to your site's best content, and serve as an entree into the site for people who just came to read one post.

Many readers will leave the site after reading only one they read the post they came for, but if you make it easy for them to find your very best work then they might stick around and read more or may even subscribe to your blog feed if they find your content compelling enough.

Limit the use of title tags and categories and use just the one that is most important. You should highlight only the important categories and put the others on a different page. Using too many tags will create a bunch of links that aren't really useful. The best practice is to use tags for just the most important keywords.

7. Create a Google News sitemap and optimize images. Google recommends that publishers submit special "sitemaps" to help the search engine to index your pages. Sitemaps are dynamic XML files that you submit to Google and are used by their spider to index your content.

By Kurt Henninger

If you look around, it's not really need to buy network marketing leads anymore. The internet has become a virtual playground for everyone to almost create out of thin air your own network marketing leads. Many companies do still provide some half way decent MLM leads for your business, but if you take these 3 basic approaches an skill sets, you'll never have to buy leads again.

The 1st formula to never buying MLM leads is to get oneself known on the web. Ever heard of the old saying that "A company without a sign is a company with no customers". One of the easiest arenas for having oneself know is using of the leverage of the web.

A few of the easiest methods to do this are to go get involved in Internet MLM Forums, and placing advertisements or ads in electronic magazines. By putting ones website out there ones business will automatically begin gaining clients who want your services.

Secondly, another great way can be handing out useful information to your potential prospects. Give people a ways and means for them to be a success. This is really what true value is about.

Offer a free ebook or ecourse that will train people and teach them to be successful in their own network marketing endeavors. People love things that help them and provide some information or education for them.

Third, situate oneself as a mentor in the business. How does one do that? Begin a blog about MLM of one's own, start a no cost ecourse and inform people that they can email it all over to their internet friends. If you do those 2 tasks and absolutely work at it, your message and fame will move like a breeze across the Internet.

Individuals who desire to educate themselves about something, if it is Network Marketing or something else automatically gravitate to others who are leaders in their field. Educate oneself and become an expert and leader in ones field.

Simple Search Engine Internet Marketing Advice

By Frank Palani Madan

The way to get a high page rank on the search engines is to use the right keywords or phrases in the articles on you site and get the right links pointing to your site. These are the keywords that the searchers are using to search for your products. This article will help you find the right keywords that you can use to get high placement on the search engines.

My internet marketing advice is to start with a list of keywords you think people will use when looking for your products. Use keywords search tools to help you expand on that list.

Google's keyword tool is a good free research tool to help you come up with a big list. This is most popular and comprehensive research tool on the web. It has all the features that are needed for you to build a large list of search terms.

Enter some of the terms you think people might be using to search for your products in the search bar of Google's keyword tool. It will come up with a large number of related keywords and phrases that the searchers have used in the previous month. It also provides the search volume for each keyword. This search should provide you with an idea of what keywords you should use in the content of your site.

Put yourself into the mind of the searcher's. Selecting keywords is about thinking like your customers. Choose keywords most likely to be used by people interested in what you are selling. Do it right and the visitors who arrive at your site will buy what you have to sell because that is what they are looking for. If the keywords you use are related to your products, the visitors you get will be buyers nit just searchers.

Take into consideration the response that will be caused by the words you use in the content of your site. Find words that fit your niche. You can get to the top of searches for a keyword, but if nobody is looking to buy anything based on your keyword it will be a waste of time.

Place yourself in the searchers mind. This will help you come up with words and phrases that you would enter in the search engine if you were to looking for your product.

Use the words and phrases and their variations in the paragraphs of your pages content. Use the main keywords in the title of each page. This content will be indexed by the search engines whose job is to select and rank your sites content.

Use the main keyword/phrase in the title or headline of the article. Also use the keywords or their variations in the paragraphs of your article content. These keywords will attract the attention of the search engine robots whose job is to select and rank content. Don't overuse the keywords. If you over stuff your content with unnecessary keywords, the search engines may consider it spam.

Exchange links with other sites and hyperlink your keywords. This hyper-linking of the keywords shows search engines what keywords should be associated with your website and content.

Mix it up, do not hyperlink the same words every time. Use related versions of your keywords. If you use the same keywords every time, it may look like you're trying to manipulate Google, which Google will not like.

Follow my internet marketing advice and you will get a high page rank in the search engines.

Online Marketing Lesson 1 - Don't Get Sucked Into Tricks By Internet Marketers - The Sales Funnel

By Tracey Dornelles

As you've probably guessed I have fallen for a few gimmicks online, promising wonderful things only to be left disappointed again!

There's plenty of sneaky things marketers create to get to to buy their products or sign up to their business. Most of them are totally legal, but some aren't as ethical as others.

When I was looking for a home business opportunity I came across similar types of websites using the sames sorts of techniques.

So, here's a basic guide of how they draw you in and attract you to them. This can make you a bit more aware of who is genuine and who's not.

Lesson 1 is all about the SALES FUNNEL:

Lots of pages you may come across are in what we call a landing page or squeeze page format. They are SUPER LONG and take and eternity to read, but let's just be clear: These are written by professional copywriters and many are paid thousands and thousands of dollars to do this.

They are paid the big bucks because they can convince people to buy just about anything. Most of us think were smart enough to see when were being SOLD to, but seriously they are so good, I have often found myself wasting half an hour of my life reading them.

They make you believe the product or opportunity is the answer to all your problems. They tug at your heart strings and get you hooked with their clever writing. Then they show you all these people who have done it successfully too. I mean really, some of those testimonials are written just too perfectly.

It's kind of like hypnosis as you read all the way down to the bottom and before you know it you're reaching for your credit card.

This is just one of the tricks marketers use to seduce you. There are more, but I'll save them for my next few articles.

I eventually found the right online business opportunity for me and I love how it's changed my life and now I'm helping others do the same.

Keyword Tools For Effective Adwords Campaigns

By Cindy P. Edwards

One of the most important elements of an effective Google Adwords campaign is selecting the right combination of keywords and keyphrases. There could be millions of keywords associated with your niche and playing a guessing game for the 'right' keywords can be costly. Google offers its own keyword selector tool to make the process of choosing keywords easier, but there's are a handful of other tools you can use to fine-tune your campaign.

Almost all Adwords masters use a three-step strategy when selecting keywords. First, they will start with obvious keywords and run them through the keyword tool to determine the volume and types of searches performed. Then, they may start researching synonyms to find out similar and related searches being conducted by their target market. Finally, they will identify underperforming keywords and eliminate or tweak them from the campaign.

If you're looking for ways to build an effective Adwords campaign, you'll need to choose the right keyword tool and then follow the three-step strategy outlined above. Howie Jacobson, author of the book 'Adwords for Dummies' explains that the most favorable keyword tools you can use for PPC campaigns are: Google's Keyword Selector Tool; Keyword Discovery; Word Tracker; and a basic Thesaurus.

You have free access to Google Keyword Selector Tool in your adwords account. This tool is great for searching synonyms and other relevant or appropriate keywords for your niche by entering your preliminary keywords into it. This tool can also make comparisons between keywords in terms of search volume, monthly trends, advertiser competition, and average cost per click.

Keyword Discovery tool has more features suited for experienced Adwords users and SEO specialists. Its main features include the ability to handle many lists of keywords, compare and analyze different data and easily convert data analyses into reports. It is a paid service though but it is a step above Google's free Adwords Keyword tool.

Word Tracker has a paid service and a free tool. The free keyword tool is quite useful for cross-referencing keyword data. It only provides very basic data such as the number of searches conducted within a month for a keyword or keyphrase. It is also important to note that the data this tool produces may have some discrepancy with Google's Keyword Selector tool.

Using keyword tools can be an effective way to 'mine' for long-tail keywords and synonyms in your niche. You'll have an opportunity to compare and analyze dozens, even hundreds of keywords easily and can export the data into an Excel spreadsheet or other document for easy retrieval.

Use free keyword tools in building your keyword list for any niche. That's the most important advice I can give to anyone just starting out on Google Adwords. In this way, you get to see how your niche and the mind of your market work allowing you to create effective ads with high click-through rates.

Identifying Internet's Best Scams, Schemes & Cons

By Travis Ristig

The Internet's best scams, schemes & cons are growing more powerful and more widespread seemingly everyday. Is there anything that we can do as individuals and as consumers to protect ourselves, our information and our money from the dangerous Internet environment? The good news is that the answer to that question is a resounding yes. By learning about the various available schemes and fraudulent techniques, you can better protect yourself in all situations.

People today are making themselves victims in situations they can avoid. One common scam that everyone has seen for themselves is when you receive an email from some African or Asian royalty or businessman of some sort. They promise you millions of dollars, if you spend some money to help them right now that is.

All together you can break down the Internet's best scams, schemes & cons into several major categories. The first of which is described above as the auction and retail sales cons. With this you make purchases and spend money on items you will never receive, or on items that aren't what they are supposed to be. People are lured by seemingly great values and then end up stuck with a bill for nothing.

Auction cons are very common. With the auction con, you buy something that might not exist or you will never receive. If you do receive it, it's damaged or it's a fake. It's a complete waste of money and as soon as you pay for something, you'll never hear from the company again. Many people fall victim to the limitless array of work at home schemes and fraudulent business opportunities. The deal with these is usually that you can become involved with some millionaire making system, as long as you buy something now or sign up for some kind of expensive service.

Identity theft is one of the most prevalent and dangerous of the Internet's best scams, schemes & cons. When you share your credit card information or social security information with a website you are putting yourself at risk. Additionally, you should never provide that information to some supposed company or friend through an unsolicited email.

To help protect yourself and spot the phony from the real, you have to use some common sense. If a company is selling you something but there is no way to contact them or if they seem a little bit sketchy, then you shouldn't go through with any transactions. You have the power of the Internet at your disposal, which means you can research companies, individuals, products and more. Find out for yourself who is real and who isn't and see what other people on the Internet are saying about the person or company you are searching for.

Don't fall into the trap of believing something that is too outrageous and odd to really happen. Messages saying you won millions of dollars in the lottery for example. How is that possible without even entering the lottery? Similarly, those scams with people claiming to be royalty or millionaires but leading a loan for one reason or another don't make any sense. So don't pay them any mind and just delete these messages as soon as you receive them.

The Department of Justice has an ongoing campaign that encourages people to be vigilant in identifying internets best scams, schemes & cons. This is because of the continuously increasing number of cases of online fraud. If you suspect that you have been victimized by an internet scam, contact your local police department to be guided in filing, preparing and handling your complaints. Get help from the local authorities to get more advice on how to proceed with your case.

One of the ways a twitter authority can be used is to track celebrities who are increasingly making themselves known on twitter. Another way twitter authority could be used is to allow users to post automatically 24 hours a day seven days a week. There and many twitter authorities known on the Internet right now. Find them, just use your favorite search engine.

Some of the authorities are better known than others. This is mainly because they've gotten more publicity, but that doesn't mean that they're a better tool at helping you to navigate the twitter landscape.

If I had to give an opinion, I would say to look for as many twitter authorities as you possibly can. If they fulfill it your looking for then you're doing well. Try not to just settle for the most popular twitter authorities, because it's the easiest thing to do.

This authority can help you gain more followers faster than any other method especially the manual method. It would take hours to go to a webpage, such as twitter, find a follower, and then click follow 1000 times.

This would take too long and be very boring.

Try as many stories as you can. This will save you time and money and you will eventually find one that works perfectly for you. Allow you to generate some great relationships and to new customers, which will eventually get you more visitors to your website. This is a good thing, because those visitors may purchase your product.

Choose The Right Web Hosting Option For You

By Wade Henderson

In recent years different types of web hosting have emerged on the internet. In order for you to understand them and recognize them, we present you here a few options of what you may encounter. Remember to look for the one that suits your needs.

One of the most popular options is of course Free Web Hosting.

When you use this type of web hosting you share the space in the server with other users. In short, you are not the only one and that is why it is free. It has its limitations. One of them is the fact that one user can monopolize some services and space and you may end up having less as a result. This may affect the quality of the hosting. Another limitation is not being able to install programs because this may affect the stability of the servers for all users.

There is also Dedicated Private Web Hosting.

It is similar to Private web hosting, with the only difference that you do not own the server. Through this web hosting you only rent the server. One of the benefits of this option, as opposed to free or shared web hosting, is the service include. Different providers may offer different services.

This type of server costs 80-100 euros. The terms of the offer are often very general and it is necessary to clarify the details with the host. Before you hire, ask the server what responsibilities you have and what type of assistance they provide, including security. Private web hosting is good for game servers to large sites amateurs but not legitimate businesses that require monitoring.

Dedicated web hosting is yet another option. It is also called Managed or Turnkey.

This type of web hosting, just like the other ones, also includes maintenance and assistance form the host. This option provides more advantages to the user because it also includes the monitoring and updating of the server. Hardware warranties are also included as well as their installation of security patches.

Private web hosting (rental space)

You buy your own server (Dell or HP) and you supply this server to the host. This installs your host machine as a server, log on its fiber optic network and connected to a feeding system adapted. The center is responsible for the reliability of the network, and you are responsible for maintaining your server.

Choose the Most Reliable Email Host, Succeed in Your Internet Marketing

By Greg Black

You may think that your email host is not that important to your internet-based business. One thing to remember is that most of your communications are done through your email. There are many communication methods including various types of phone service, but it seems like we are always running to our inbox to keep up on what is new in the world of business.

The use of free email service is highly discouraged for your business. Most free services will not look professional nor use your domain in the address. The use of a professional email host will provide you with enhanced options and fewer limitations which is a much better benefit. When you choose an email host, it is recommended that you be concerned with their secure server capabilities, the space they allow for storage on their servers, the access alternatives they provide and the speed of their servers.

The availability of certain scripts and software are important along with access to server logs. You should also choose a email host that has been in the business of email hosting for awhile so that they have experience and stability. There is no reason why an email hosting company would have less than 99% uptime for your internet-based business. Downtime is a big problem to business because it hinders the success of your business.

Other things that you should consider are as follows: Email Forwarding Capabilities: Email forwarding can be very helpful because it will automatically forward other email accounts that you have into another address. This saves a lot of time and a lot of energy on your part.

Auto-responding: This function is great because you can designed some emails to be send automatically to answer specific question that your client might ask. This is a very useful business tool.

Mailing list: With this option, you can manage your organization better. You can create list so that emails are directly sent to a certain group like, marketing list or administration list. It is a very good way to have the news out to the person on the other side.

You are now ready to choose an email hosting company for your internet-based company after reviewing these features and options. Email and communication is a vital part to your business. The progress and success of your marketing strategy are determined by your choice in a reliable email host. Your success as an internet marketer is directly affected by this.

Easy Ways To Make Money Blogging

By Scott Baker

Most die-hard blogger's have heard that you can make money blogging, but some don't realize how easy it can be. From Google Adsense to pay per post deals, it's never been easier to make money blogging. But should a blogger sell out to a pay per post or add revenue site? What are the most popular pay per post blog revenue sites to make money blogging today?

Blogitive, at http://www.blogitive.com is a pay per post site that offers jobs on a first come, first served irregular basis. When clients buy advertising, the jobs are posted, and the first bloggers to accept the jobs get them. Pay is $5 per post, but a little creative writing work is necessary to get blogitive to accept a blog posting. You are given a lengthy press release, and you must incorporate it into your blog along with a link to the client. You must only use one client link, which is attached to a special keyword. Blogitive pays decently, and is somewhat reliable with payment. Jobs are infrequent, but the more blogs you have listed with blogitive, the better your chances of obtaining a job will be. They pay every dime you make money blogging through paypal.

Bloggingads, at http://www.bloggingads.com is a startup blog pay per post site. They also pay $5 through paypal per ad. They offer the entire ad, which can be copied word for word and pasted into the blog, or you can make the ad your own by altering it. It is an easy way to make money blogging. Bloggingads does not have a lot of jobs to offer, but they pay for the test blog entry. Unlike blogitive, bloggingads puts their client / blogger information on the same page. Blogitive puts its client advertisements on a separate site that is not attached to the blogger base.

Blogsvertise, at http://www.blogsvertise.com is a newer blog pay per post site. Blog sites must be approved, and topics are assigned to members. They do not offer a press release. You must check for tasks, and they pay through paypal. This site is not necessarily for link exchange, but more so for buzz growth. They pay ten dollars for an entry, which is a good rate to make money blogging, but if the quality of the blog increases, pay increases. They are not too selective with blogs as long as they are blogs with real writing in it and not bot writing.

Pay Per Post, at http://www.payperpost.com is a blog revenue site that is very selective with the blogs it chooses, but assignments are easy. The problem with pay per post is that they do not always make clear regulations, they have a tiny link to track blog posts, which leads to confusion, and they are not very user-friendly for all blogger's. In addition, they require a lot of personal information to submit your blog, a practice that has blogger's leery of their practices.

Some feel that pay per post is an awful way to make money blogging. Pay per post pays relatively well depending on the project. Some offer over ten dollars for the post. Of course, these sites are only for pay per post. There are other ways to make money blogging like Adsense, pay to blog which is basically a glorified blog site. The pay per post sites are great because a blogger can use a little bit of time and make a nice amount of grocery money. As clients increase, pay per post jobs become more frequent, which is quite nice for those who make money blogging. The problem with pay per post blogging is basic. If you want to make adsense money, it is likely that your blog will be picked on eventually as an SEO link spammer.

Some will not make money blogging both with Adsense and pay per post. To keep this from happening, a lot of blog for cash sites suggest against the pay per post types of revenue sites if your Google ranking is better than five. Proponents of pay per post sites clarify that Google Adsense is often a limited venture, with very little revenue possible for most blogger's, so why not pay per post to make money blogging. Pay per post does tend to look funny on some blogs, and others it is basically used as a writing challenge or fun game of "Let's see how I can get this ad to fit in my blog."

The more serious of blogger's try to keep one "virgin blog" without advertisements of any kind and then run a few revenue blogs at the same time. For the prolific, this arrangement can net a little extra money and prove to be a great diversion. Pay per post sites are yet another way to make money blogging, a trend that is certain to grow as blogger's and companies needing the buzz of the blog unite for mutual benefit. If you want to make money blogging, all you need is a blog, some time, and the willingness to participate.

Search Engine Optimization Is An Art

By Frank Palani Madan

Search engine optimization is the art of optimizing each page of your website for the best search engine placement. Each search engine marketing campaign should begin with an audit of your website, a competitive analysis of the search results environment and summary outlining opportunities.

The result is to make your website's presence recognized to the search engines as the most plausible choice for the search query. Search engine optimization will boost the visibility of your website's pages for selected keywords. The goal is to get your web pages high on the front page.

Websites that are on the first page of the search engine results are the one that will most likely succeed in getting customers. Many times searchers don't even bother to click on the second page of the search engine results page.

Search engine optimization will target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, and industry-specific search engines. After researching search engine marketing, you can find ways to optimize and improve your search engine rankings and improve your search engine keywords relative to your competition.

Search engine optimization can include changes to the site itself, such as updates to the text and the code, and looking for other sources of traffic by making requesting listings in directories and doing link exchanges with other relevant sites. Researching the competition, tracking and reporting also play an important role in the process. SEO efforts may involve a site's coding, and structure, as well as fixing problems that might bar search engine indexing programs from fully spidering a site. Other, more important efforts may include adding unique content to a site, and ensuring that the content is indexed by the search engine robots. Search engine optimization does not take place over-night.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) plays a vital role in ensuring that your business gets the best possible search engine ranking, which can lead to increased sales for your online company. Search engine optimization is something that has come a long way. It use to be as easy as only listing keywords on your site to get your site noticed. Search Engine Optimization and optimized social media content makes it easier for visitors to find product information online when theyre doing the research that will help them make buying decisions.

Links have an affect on how well any web page ranks in Google. Wikipedia ranks so high because millions of web pages link to them. Links tell search engines what pages are about. This is true on-site as well as off-site.

Sitemaps are especially helpful for sites with content that is otherwise inaccessible due to dynamic URLs, SSL, or other roadblocks to the search engine spiders. Cut down on the amount of links in a sitemap to less than 100 or build sitemaps around groups of pages. Site map or index pages are a frequent element of web sites, and users who prefer to browse through lists of links know to look for site map or index pages in a well-organized site.

Relevant Website - Your Online Business Success

By Vince Darrel

Are you looking for ways of getting your website ranked in search engines? You must have thought of Search Engine Optimization, but is too way complicated for a person, who never dealt with it before.

How can you build a website which will get ranked and avoid long process of all SEO approaches and techniques? If thats what you want, keep reading to find four key principles, which you can use to get started.

First and foremost, think about focusing. How specific is your business? Do you know your target audience? If you cant answer these questions, you will find it very hard to differentiate your company.

Get specific on what you are going to offer your clients, even if it takes time, it is worth it, as your visitors will be more targeted.

Secondly, you should place your keywords exactly where search engines will be able to read them and to understand your website is relevant - headings, your images alt tags etc. If you want this to work, placing them only in content will not help.

Third, make sure that you have a strong call to action which will lead your visitors to click on to the next page from where they are. Google can actually tell what your click through rate is and considers your site to be more relevant if people are taking action once they get there. If you are unsure what kind of results you are getting then you need to install Google analytics right away.

Fourth, you need to make sure that you are linking to sites which are relevant and well known by the search engines. This means that you can have one thousand back links to just any site and still be behind a site which has fifty relevant links. The best way to build back links is to comment on other peoples blogs and to place articles on content delivery sites. Just make sure that you are connecting to relevant sites.

Take about twenty minutes a day to work with your site and make sure that these things are in place. As you do, be sure that you are treating SEO as a process and always looking for ways to improve and to become more relevant to the search engines. Then you can be assured that you will have a site which will get attention.

10 Tips To Improve Your Blogging In 2009

By Deb Powers

Every blogger has dreams for their little corner of the Internet. Achieving those blogging dreams is not just a matter of luck. The blogging fairy won't just sweep down upon your latest post some night and grant it a million views. Or maybe she will. There's an element of luck and happenstance in getting a single blog post to jump the hurdle and become a most-viewed post for 24 hours, but if you want consistent success and regular readers then it will take a little work. Why not take the energy of the New Year and pick a few New Years blogging resolutions to apply to your blog this year.

1. Evaluate your blogging goals--or make one for the first time.

Setting goals for yourself is always the first step toward achieving them. What do you want from your blog? Take a few minutes to think about what you hope to accomplish with your blog. Is your plan to make extra money? Create a niche web site? Promote your business? Build your readership? Become famous? Once you know what you want your blog to accomplish, you can make a targeted plan to achieve your goal. (hat tip to Melanie Nelson at Bloggingtips.com)

2. Post more regularly to your blog.

One way to increase readership to your blog is to post regularly. Readers build certain expectations based on your posting frequency, but frequency isn't as important as regularity. If you can only manage time to put up one blog post per week, resolve to post it on the same day each week. Consistency is key--when your readers know what to expect, they'll become more engaged. (hat tip to Nate Whitehill at NateWhitehill.com)

3. Learn how to write fast posts.

Fast doesn't mean low quality. If you can learn to write your blog posts quickly, you can write more blog posts, right? There are many methods to help you pull your thoughts together and put them out as a fun-to-read blog post, but the basic process is the same. Keep a running list of ideas, learn to pre-write posts in your head, learn to write straight through and ignore distractions. (hat tip to Alisa Bowman at Problogger.net)

4. Evaluate your posting frequency.

Are you posting enough or too much? The ideal frequency for blog posts varies according to the kind of blog and type of posts you usually write, but there are ways for you to evaluate whether you should write more or scale back on your blog posting. Once you find your ideal rhythm, stick to it. (hat tip to Darren Rowse at Problogger.net)

5. Pick a remote blogging tool that you like.

Blogging is easy, and you can make it even easier with a remote blogging editor. Being able to pull up an editor and blog from where ever you happen to be on the web lets you write and post blog posts on the fly, while the information is still fresh in your mind - or right in front of you on the page. Top picks: Windows Live Writer and Scriberfire. Scribefire also includes an ad network that you can drop right into your blog.

6. Be a good blog community participant.

Interactivity and community are the two things that make blogs stand out against other writing and advertising platforms. Making the most of your blog means building and/or becoming part of the blog community. Attracting people to your blog starts with reaching out to other blogs. Read, comment, share and link to other bloggers who write in the same niche as your own blog. Get some more tips on building your blog's presence in the wider community from JohnTP at johntp.com-- it may be an older post, but the tips are still worth the reading.

7. Write an About Me page.

Yes, you! People who read your blog do want to know who you are, and why they should listen to you. An About Me (or About this Blog) page should be a total requirement for every blog. Your About page should tell your readers who you are, why you're qualified to write about this subject and what they can get from reading your blog. (Hat tip to Jeff Atwood at codinghorror.com for this one. It's another older post that's well worth reading--the whole list of 13 blog cliches)

8. Comment on at least one other blog a day - and be sure to link your name back to your blog.

Commenting on another blog is an excellent way to increase your own readership. Most blogging platforms allow you to include your own blog URL which will be linked to your name when you post the comment. An interesting response will almost guarantee that some readers will follow the link back to your blog to read more of what you have to say, or find out about you. At the very least, the blogger you comment on will check you out-- and may even link back to your blog.

9. Slim down your blog's look.

It's tempting to widgetize your blog with every new gadget out there, but all those widgets can quickly become overwhelming to your readers. Go through your "toys" as the new year starts and decide which of them are actually serving a useful purpose and which are just loading down your page with clutter.

10. Find the balance between proviiding and promoting.

With a special hat tip to DJ Francisat onlinemarketingblog.com, take this reminder that there is a balance to be found between promoting yourself and providing something unique with your blog. If you find that you're spending more time promoting than writing, or if you're collecting friends for the sole purpose of raising your rankings, take a step back and re-evaluate your 2009 blogging goals. Remember that no matter how much promotion you do, your blog is only as good as your content but no matter how good your content, no one will read it without promotion. Find the balance, and you'll have the best of both worlds and hopefully, a wildly successful blog.

Using Forums to Increase Your Traffic

By Theo McLanahan

Most people who are used to using the Internet on a moderately regular basis are very familiar with forums and message boards and how to use them. These online communities let people get together to ask questions, give and receive answers, share stories, and forge relationships. As a website owner, participating in online forums will allow you to get in touch with other Internet Marketers as well as with individuals who could potentially become your new customers. For these reasons, forums can increase the volume of traffic your website receives.

The majority of forums give you a signature line to use with your profile when you make posts. You can include your name, a catchphrase, a logo, and a link to your company's website. The business related information you include in your signature line will draw forum readers to your site.

Forums are definitely an excellent place online to form relationships, but it does not happen immediately. You need to gain some credibility. To do so, post a greeting message with some information about yourself when you first join a forum. Also, be sure not to over advertise your website, since forums are often abused by spammers whose messages are deleted by moderators.

When you answer the questions that people have in a helpful and genuine way, they will eventually trust your advice and see you as an expert on the topic at hand.

You can also include links to your opt-in pages for your newsletter. This will drive traffic to your site and increase the amount of people on your mailing list. Adding links to your newsletter that leads to articles and other information on your website will further increase the amount of traffic to your site.

Whenever you feature a special offer like an e-course or a discount on a certain product, let forum members know by posting about it. They will want to know so that they can take advantage of such special offers.

Since word of mouth advertising is an extremely good way to build up your business, do not be afraid to ask your friends on the forums to refer you to others. Doing so will make your business internationally known. Contacting other Internet Marketers on forums can also help you, as you may be able to get involved in some joint ventures.

Using forums to make new friendships, make others see you as an expert, and link readers back to your website will all help you increase the traffic to your site.

Managed Dedicated Hosting for Your E-Commerce Web Site

By Ben Ingham

A business will often outgrow shared web hosting and it will need its own managed dedicated hosting server. Unmanaged Dedicated hosting, is a type of hosting in which you rent your own server from a dedicated hosting company. This company will maintain a stock of servers and operate its own data center and network. The server is for your exclusive use only, meaning it does not share resources with other users or websites.

If you don't have the in house technical experience, you could consider hiring a technical person to handle these tasks if you feel the self managed server is what your business needs. Check out the many freelancing sites where you could advertise for additional system administration work. Unless you have some technical experience with web servers you may struggle to perform your own server management and administrative tasks. However your host may be able to perform additional task at an additional hourly rate.

With Managed dedicated hosting the web hosting provider will provide ongoing technical support and basic system help. They should have engineers nearby on a 24 hour basis in order to carry out server reboots. You still have complete technical control over your dedicated server, and unlike shared hosting, this server is devoted entirely to your own use. Additionally you will also have access to optional managed services such as software upgrades, security patching, operating system hardening, firewalls, and backup services

Dedicated hosting providers usually offer a choice of operating systems which are usually Windows 2003 and Linux (Centos, Ubuntu, Fedora etc). This will be installed by the web host when the server is first commissioned. To assist in the management of the server the managed hosting provider will often install a control panel. The most popular control panels are Cpanel (Web Host Manager) Plesk, Helm and H-Sphere. This makes managing your server and carrying out routine tasks much easier and is a time saver. If this is a Linux server this will often require command line expertise. A server without a control panel or graphical interface is sometimes known as a "root server."

There are a wide variety of dedicated server providers. Whether you decide to rent an unmanaged or a managed server, carry out thorough research before coming to a decision. Online review sites and forums are helpful to research the various hosting companies and find out what each offers, as are customer testimonials. If they claim 24/7/365 support, make sure they can actually provide it. As with most things in life, always go for quality of service rather than price, because with dedicated server hosting, you usually get what you pay for!

No Reliable Web Hosting Means no Success

By Ricardo d Argence

While the number of web hosting companies continues to grow, it's still not necessarily easy to find a reliable web host. There's a lot of competition for your business, with web hosts and resellers alike all trying to lure you with low prices and promises of uptime 99% or greater.

For any website which intends to make a successful go of it, reliable web hosting is the most important thing to look for. The difference between reliable hosting and hosting which isn't is literally the difference between having visitors return and having visitors come once to see the site out of service, never to come back again.

Pages often returned as not available can also impact your rating with today's ultra-clever search engines who are also in a race of their own to beat their own competition (other search engines!) after all, a customer returns to good service.

Reliable web hosting matters; and not just to your visitors - it also gives you peace of mind.

Imagine trying to build your website, to find that every time you go to upload new content or make any changes you can�t, because the service is down. It becomes tedious and frustrating and we are no longer in the early 1990's were that sort of thing was experienced daily.

You expect better from your web host and more importantly, consumers demand that websites be reliable. There are web based businesses who have failed to thrive all because they chose the wrong web hosting company to work with. As soon as you know you've got a problem with your web host, you need to take action.

Unless your website is one which is made solely for your own entertainment and you don't really care about anyone else seeing it, reliable web hosting is critical. You can lose business and lose your place in the search engine rankings if your site is regularly unavailable when the search engines try to index its pages.

Running a business through your website though makes it critical to have a reliable webhost. You need at least 99.9% uptime, this may seem excessive to you, but in today's modern technology it is perfectly possible to find web hosting businesses that can manage and in some cases even exceed this percentage.

Say your webhost was current providing you with 20% downtime (80% uptime) this could in effect mean you are losing up to 20% of potential customers, who cannot view your site due to this downtime.

This is affecting your earning ability, thus losing you potential revenue. Anyone you employ to help your business, in this case the webhost should not help you LOSE money!

How can you tell if you'll get reliable web hosting from a given company? You can't tell for sure until you try their service yourself. There are, however a couple of things you can do to get a better idea.

There are free tools which can monitor uptime, something every webmaster should have. If you have a site, uptime matters. Being able to monitor this all-important performance benchmark for yourself instead of relying on the hosting company to provide it is valuable.

One of the best signs of a reliable webhosting company is that they will notify customers of any planned downtime or when they expect problems with their service by email and/or a notice on their website. If a webhosting company won't give you this information, it means that they know their service isn't good enough to keep their customers from going elsewhere.

Targeted Website Traffic

By Frank Palani Madan

A web site without traffic is useless. You don't want just any kind of traffic. You want people who will benefit from what your site has to offer. This is the reason why your visitors should be highly targeted. You may be wondering, what is the best way to start your internet marketing advertising and get targeted traffic coming to your site day after day? That is what this article is about. Below are some of the ways that have been proved effective in increasing the quality and quantity of your your web site traffic.

Search engine optimization. Most paying customers find websites through search engines. Search engines are a good way to reach new customers because they are looking for you instead of you having to find them. Search engine optimization should be one of the first things you think about when you build a site. On the web, search engines rule. To get yourself known in the world of the web you need to be recognized by major search engines. Your site needs to be optimized for these search engines.

For successful search engine optimization you need content that is relevant. Content will make it possible for your customers to find you in the search engines. Content, when properly seeded with keyword phrases, will help search engines know how to list your site to bring you buyers.

Ezines. Those who have an ezine with a massive opt-in list are sitting on a gold mine. You can build a huge opt-in list of subscribers to your ezine and it will bring buyers back to your site.

Your ezine should be directly related to the topic of the products you sell and give your readers helpful information. This will help you be regarded as an expert in your field. When your readers consider you an expert, visitors will come looking for you to seek out ideas and suggestions.

Use your ezine to give out tips and advice about your products to your readers. Built up a good relationship with your readers, they will remain faithful to you and come back for more of what you have to offer.

Articles marketing. This is one of the best forms of internet marketing advertising online. Article marketing is a very effective way to get targeted visitors into your site.

Webmasters are always looking for fresh content for their websites. Submit your articles to article directories and webmasters will pick them up and publish them on their websites with a link back to your website. Your content will be displayed on their websites and be read by customers who will be attracted to what you are offering. This is free advertising for you.

You need to write quality articles with good, relevant information that focuses on your niche market. Once your articles get published, search engine link popularity will go up along with your search engine rankings. When you write articles, look for the right keywords to target. They should match the topic of your site. It is best to try and use keywords that have very high traffic but with low competition from existing websites.

Trading links with other sites. This is free advertising, every link is a small ad you dont have to spend a cent on. Link exchanging benefits both sites. Traffic that goes to the site could potentially click on the link to your site and visit your site. This works especially well when both sites are in the same niche.

Pay Per Click. To use pay per click internet marketing advertising you need to find the most cost effective keywords that will get paying customers to their web site without paying a fortune. PPC can take a great deal of practice before it can be called successful. You need to look up competitors, find keywords, and create landing pages.

When you do pay per click advertising it is important to you learn what keywords your competitors are using, and which one are working for them. By looking up companies that are associated with your target market, you will have a better understanding how to manage your PPC campaign.

Blogs. One of the reasons you want to post your articles to blogs is to get relevant inbound links. If the blog content is relevant to your site, search engines will link together your blog postings and tag it as related information. Daily industry news updates, marketing campaigns, press releases, dialogue, all receives credit towards your page rank. Be sure to include industry catchphrases, keywords and terms that relate to the theme of your site.

Regular blogging is search engine-friendly. Blog text is in simple formats which are easy for search engines to find, blog page codes usually contain clean, text rich HTML and are devoid of search engine unfriendly Flash or JavaScript. Search engines love the naturally written, original content people post to blogs. Google even has its own blog search that lets users search for information only found on blogs.

Squidoo Lenses are another way to get search engines and people to find your site. Each lens is a small page full of information and other content that you want to put into it. Each lens is a little blog or personal website, except that its dedicated to just a single specific topic.

Generating traffic is a continuous process that website owners have to maintain. There are other ways but this should get you started. Start with these internet marketing advertising techniques and watch paying customers come to your site.

More effective online marketing: SEO consultants will be able to provide you with the advice you need in order to properly utilize other forms of online marketing, as well as making your site and you work smarter.

An increase in traffic: SEO can significantly increase your traffic flow, a goal you probably had in mind when you created your site.

The quickest and most simple way to achieve these goals is to hire a search engine optimization consultant. The benefits will far outweigh the investment.

However, before hiring you will likely want to do some research to obtain a truly professional and knowledgeable search engine optimization consultant as there are many out there today who give themselves the title, but don't know anything more about optimizing a website than you do. Don't be fooled by these imitations, find someone who truly has the credentials and knowledge that you need.

Carefully and thoroughly check references before you make your final decision. You should also look for someone who has experience in your field.

You may also consider asking others in your field which consultant they used. You should be very careful to find the right person on the first time around, so you do not waste any time or money.

Be Productive By Working From Home

By Daniel Molano

Don't you just hate bosses? They actually give life to the terms "bossy" and "bossing around." Just as you hate it when people acted like they are the boss of you in grade school, you also do not like to be bossed around when you finally earned your degree. However, your boss hands you your monthly paycheck so you have to endure all his or her games because you want to get paid. If you work from home, no one will ever have to play power tripping games with you again.

If you enjoy that relaxed feeling while you do your task at home, why don't you live your life that way? Courtesy of the Internet, you can now find a job that does not have a demanding boss in the package. Yes, you will have an employer but, unlike your boss from hell, he or she won't ask you to pick up her dry cleaning or lunch. You will only need to arm yourself with a PC with a good internet connection and you can log on to danielmolano.com to help you pick the best job that will allow you to work from home.

Your home is your happy place or the place where you can effectively extract your creative juices because you are comfortable in there. You can work easily and efficiently when you are in an environment that is not very stressful. In an office, you will have to bear the brunt of your boss' bad day. If your boss is having a bad day he or she will most likely affect everyone in the office and you will all end up being unproductive because of the bad mood. If you work from home, you can be sure that any bad mood can be cured your pet, your favorite show, or a tub of ice cream in your fridge.

You can also start your own business that works via the internet. This way, you can really be the boss of your own self. No need to meet demands from an authority other than your customers. You will run your business in a comfortable zone because you will work from home where you can think better.

There are so many things we can wish for but there's only so much we can do. We can wish that we can be successful or we can actually work hard to be one. We can wish for a steak for dinner or we can actually make one. We can wish for our boss to disappear into outer space or we can actually work from home and be in charge of our lives. We need to take action so our wishes will not remain as a wish we will be making for the rest of our lives. We have options and we should choose what is best for ourselves and what could make our wishes come true.

What Is Twitter All About- People Sharing Information And Ideas

By Douglas Taylor

What is twitter all about? It depends on whom you ask.

You may hear definitions like Twitter is a website that is free and helps you stay in contact with others.

Others may say that this service is a social networking micro blogging site that answers the age old question what are you doing. You do this by sending out short 140 length character messages. These messages are called tweets and your friends are called followers.

There are plenty of critics out there who just don't get Twitter. They think that people are wasting time talking about boring subjects.

Yes, there's a component of that happening. And it is sort of amusing in a sad way.

What goes on underneath the surface is where the real value is. People often share important thoughts and plans. You will find experts in many different fields offering help and guidance. There are even potential customers that could be yours talking about what they would like to see in products and services.

It is a big site and it keeps growing all the time. Even though a part of it is boring you to death by telling you what they had for breakfast there is also another side to all of this that is making the site very exciting.

If you are one of these people who just don't get Twitter and don't have a clue what is Twitter all about you may what to take a look around. You can become part of this social network and you will never have to mention what you ate for breakfast if you don't want to.

One of the best ways to get the most out of Twitter is to stay on top of new tools, techniques, trends and developments.

The Internet moves pretty fast and things change on a regular basis. When it comes to social networking sites this really applies.

Because of this you will find it worthwhile to take the time to understand what is twitter good for and how it can help you.

MLM Home Business - Is MLM the Right Home Based Income Opportunity for You?

By Eldon Beard

What do you think of when someone mentions "MLM" or "multilevel marketing" or "network marketing"? All of these are basically interchangeable names for a particularly powerful home based business model. Your reaction depends on experiences you've had and stories you've been told.

Lots of people tend to associate this business with "Amway", which is one of the original MLM opportunities, and one of the pioneers in the industry. The problem is, over the course of a few years, people promoting that opportunity (and similar opportunities) in certain ways has led to a generally negative feeling about MLM in general, and perhaps rightfully so.

When approached about a home business opportunity, were you ever:

- given a glowing sales pitch about a great MLM business opportunity but for the life of you couldn't get a response if you simply asked the name of the company?

- given an invitation to attend a business opportunity meeting, and asked simply the name of the opportunity, and were given some evasive answer such as "Jack's Wealth Associates"?

- given the runaround if you asked even a simple question about the opportunity?

- attended a MLM business opportunity meeting and been almost to the end before the "A" word was mentioned?

The rationale for taking this blind, secretive approach is easy to understand. If you mention the name of the company up front, a prospect might have some bad information about the business that would stop them from coming and seeing the "real deal".

The bad news is that all of this made this company, and MLM in general, look shady.

Let's move on and look at the home business opportunity environment of today. It never was very easy for the average person to get people to come to opportunity presentations. People now are busier than ever with their lives. The secretive approach doesn't work so well anymore, either, because people have become suspicious of it.

There is great news here. Even though people are busier than ever, at the same time more are looking for home based income than ever before. Many are using the Internet to find opportunities, as opposed to relying on traditional offline advertising. This is a good thing for everyone.

Is MLM a good fit for you? If you can answer "yes" to most of the following, you should give it serious consideration.

- do you like to work with people?

- can you see yourself enjoying talking to prospects who come to you looking for business opportunity information?

- do you have a true need to make money and strong desire to improve your situation?

- are you open to learning the fundamentals of success in MLM? It's hard work but well worth it.

If you feel good and can see yourself doing these things, you might be an excellent fit for MLM and all the benefits it offers. Take a better look and learn what it takes to pick the right company, products, and make your business a success.
