Have you ever wondered about the mysteries of SEO? There has to be something about it to consider it as a business . There has been a debate raging about SEO that there aren’t any secrets at all. If you’d wonder why only a few sites get to the top of the list, it is simply due to the help of real research, and content design. There aren’t any tricks here, actually. But there are certain tips you can use to improve your site ranking.

Someone has worked exceptionally hard to pull up their web site to number 5 from number 50. All he had to do was to add a site map menu CSS to the default navigation menu. He used a 2-word popular keyword phrase and had 100000000 results on Google.

Another secret is to minimize the use of graphical photos. Before you select a location record and writing descriptions, writing web site text in Word and check out the keyword density is very important. Keywords must be relevant. Different titles and different details and description of pages must be done. But the keyword has become foreign, just relax internal pages to the body text.

Google may be showing its competitors. But there are new search engines that can add sites and are able to display it in an instant. So this search engine can be out of service soon.

You can trick robots also. For a new installation work of a copy and put it on the website. Stir spiders with links and your site will get immediate notice. When a site gets launched, it is no longer new to the spiders – they think they’ll see new content. The site has been shown already. But now there are govina spiders. In order to acquire their nod,a person should learn how to use the HTML code that attracts spiders; avoid creating trip chains that send spiders scutt ment away, know where certain specific keywords to display, and take advantage of JavaScript and CSS.

In the case of keywords, use of Meta tags, deleting keywords that don’t appear on the pageis helpful. Thesr are the factors that can promote a website from the bottom to number one. Google denies using the keyword meta tags. Do not believe it. Remember to include a list of unique META keywords on each page and ensure that they are clearly displayed on the page. Just in case.

Do you want your new brand new website to be indexed by Google real quick? Go to Blogger.com and create a new account. Take advantage of the template. Write a press release for the site focused only on the right size and links to other sites, and then go on to publish. Blogger is owned by Google, see? That is why it is indexed quickly. When Google follows links to your site, links may be indexed also. Some of the new seats made this way to get their sites partially indexed within 24 hours.

Are you looking for sites associated with Google? Look for the tilde ~ in the Google search. The defendant also related terms of the other sites. There are a lot of secrets out there to become successful. Some SEO secrets are revealed. The real catch with search secrets? Scoring high on the find ability of a lifetime!

Keywords are those very important words in the world of Google ad words that offer you a niche over the rest in the business of ads on the internet.
The keywords initiate Google to show your ads when people or your potential would be customers search for the terms and thus the results relevant to the same are then displayed on site along with your sponsored ads on the right side of the results being displayed.

Let’s take for example you are in cloth business and you specialize in selling baby clothes so what will your key words be, “Clothes” NO it has to be Baby Clothes cause it’ll be worthless to unnecessarily go about having more competitors in the line of field where you don’t provide service at all. So the importance of key words is “relevance” to your work for best hits to come across your site and fetch you good money making business options.

Though the customized versions allow a bit of diversion from the initial line of reference, that is when some one types or searches for Baby food, or baby toys, or just plainly babies there still is a chance that your ad word may be displayed in such contexts there is over more a possibility of the user to o ahead and click your site cause he or she may not be interested at first but may seemingly get interested on due course of browsing the net and getting to see a featured ad of yours site and go about surfing through your product line and may be actually ending up purchasing few of them. Because what matters the most at the end of the day is how much you make out of it, thus realizing the importance of keywords is very necessary.

Keywords are further classified into four sub divisions these are an initiative by the team Google to help you serve better and ease out your problems and they happen to be as:

1) Broad match
2) Phrase match
3) Exact match
4) Negative keyword.

Broad matching refers to the default option which will make your ads appear for relevant matches such as plurals or keyword variations. As the name suggest it is not as narrowed an option like in Exact or Phrase match and offers you more freedom.

Secondly the Phrase match option involves surrounding the keyword specified by you in inverted quote, say for example “keyword”. When we use phrase matching, the ad would appear for the selected search terms in the order that we have specified, and in some cases for some other terms too.
The most preferred or lets put it the most logical sounding option is the Exact keyword as it displays the ad only when the keyword is exactly being searched for, it avoids all useless search information and ensures display of your ad when the appropriate term is being searched.
Lastly the Negative keyword as the name suggests, refers to the option where in you would want to specify the keywords for which results you don’t want your ads to be displayed,

Reading through all that was above the main reason behind the article is to make aware adwords user about the options available and the importance keywords.

There was a time that the concept of domaining and people called domainers was so new that no one knew it would be it’s own specialty. Today, it’s still a growing industry (despite the slowdown in the overall economy right now), and finally, professional people in the more mainstream, online and offline, are seeing the value of a good domain name.

If you are new or considering jumping in, where do you start? The first question is what is your ultimate goal with domaining? Do you want to start with a few good domains, and develop them? Do you want to spend a lot of money on one domain? Do you intend to buy a group of (probably) lesser domains and flip them? Each of these plans has a pro and a con, and in a group of domainers, you’ll find someone who tried one of these plans.

If you really don’t know the answer, then a good place to start is to read how some of the most successful domainers today got started. In the early days, domainers were secluded and worked alone with no communication with other domainers. There was no way to know what they did, what worked and what didn’t. Even until a few years ago, the top people in the industry didn’t speak publicly on what they were doing, or how they got started. This has changed. People like Frank Schilling, Rick Schwartz, and a few others started speaking more openly online. Michael Gilmour has an interesting story on how he started in domaining not that many years ago.

I recommend that you do some reading – not unlike reading the biographies of leaders in other industries, or reading about the underdog who made it from no-where. I really recommend reading Frank Schilling’s now retired blog “Seven Mile.” Frank generously shared his experiences, his thoughts on many, many domaining topics, graciously answered questions, and gave us all hope that we can be the underdog. He stopped blogging in early 2008, but the information there is invaluable.

It caused quite a stir when Frank and a few other well-known domainers starting openly sharing their thoughts. Take advantage of it! Sometimes all you need is one kernel of an idea to get you on the right track that works.

I get a lot of emails from affiliate networks and ad agencies via Blogging Tips, who want me to tell readers about the launch of their new site or announce a major update to their product or service. If the news is related to blogging then I usually cover the story as I like to tell readers about the latest blogging news.

These ad companies and agencies are really sneaky though. More than a dozen of them have signed me onto their company newsletter or press release list without my consent so I have to then go and unsubscribe. I did not even write a post about some of them, I simply emailed them saying that I didn’t think their news was relevant to blogging so I wouldn’t be covering it on the site. Clearly this was a mistake.

I absolutely despise spam. Affiliate companies have no right to sign me up to a newsletter without my consent. It really pisses me off, particularly after I did them a favour by writing about their news story.

But what can you do? I could remove the post I wrote about the site but I’d be shooting myself in the foot as I’d be removing another page for the search engines to spider. I’m not childish or scummy enough to put their email on a spam list either so all I can do is tell them to stick it next time they ask me to tell readers about their ‘important news‘.

You reap what you sow!!

I’ve been trying to be more active on Digg and StumbleUpon in the last few days. There are a number of factors which determine which articles get the most votes yet it’s clear that those with a lot of social friends easily get votes to their submissions.

Take Digg for example. A few people voted for one of my posts last week so I added them as friends. A few accepted and in the last day or so I’ve had a few shouts (quick messages) from them to vote for their posts (which I did). At the moment I have 7 friends but I’m going to get more as more friends means more voting power. This is why regulars with hundreds of friends can get diggs so easily.

Imagine you had 1000 ‘friends’ on Digg and you shouted for a digg. Even if only 100 or so friends gave your post a digg you would still get a huge traffic boost. Not to mention the extra diggs you would get from normal digg users who just liked your post. It’s clear that one of the biggest factors in social promotion is to make lots of friends and to actively digg their posts.

Digg, StumbleUpon and other social sites have been cracking down on those who exchange votes but I think they turn a blind eye to a lot of it i.e. they know they would lose a lot of members if they really cracked down on it.

Until they do crack down it heavily I’m going to be Mr Friendly on Digg! :)

A few days ago I talked about making money with mini sites. Whilst I am still looking to make money using this method, my priority at the moment is still to monetize and promote Blogging Tips and if I have more time, I want to start getting Electric Bandits off the ground.

One of the most effective ways to promote a blog is through social media. Although I’ve read lots and lots of articles on the subject, I still consider myself a novice in social media promotion as I have found it difficult to become active within these sites. To be perfectly honest, I find it time consuming and I don’t like requesting votes for my articles. Most of the bloggers I know buzz me for diggs and stumbles frequently so clearly this is one important aspect of getting traffic from social sites.

A few months ago I decided to give the social media site Sphinn a try. I checked Sphinn most days as it’s a good place to find news and tried to be active too but after a while I got frustrated with it. I saw some really poor posts getting loads and loads of votes because the site was from someone who is very active in the community and saw some great posts only get a few sphinns (I honestly believe some people spend 5-10 hours a week on the site!). And there were a few blogs where every single post was submitted and it got lots of votes, regardless of the quality.

Perhaps this comes across a little as sour grapes. I did find this frustrating however I understand that this is how 80% of social media promotion works. It’s a ‘Scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours’ environment.

I haven’t given up on social media though. I just don’t think Sphinn was for me plus the traffic which I did get from the site was low. Digg and Stumble on the other hand, bring me a lot of traffic.

A good example of the traffic Digg can bring

I don’t use Digg often but I am becoming more and more aware of the traffic it can bring. I do use StumbleUpon and give the thumbs up to many pages but I’m not actively making friends or voting for their blog posts. Clearly I should be trying to be more active on both sites.

Last month I had a reminder about the traffic Digg can bring. Whereas StumbleUpon traffic seems to be more stable, Digg traffic usually comes in large bursts. This happened last month on BloggingTips on 22nd October.

Here’s a screenprint of the traffic burst from Webzlier and analytics.

Webalizer : I’ve removed most of the months data and just showed the days before and after the digg traffic burst.

Traffic Sources

The traffic from Digg was from the post It’s a bad time to buy a blog but it’s a great time to sell!. This post was written on September 12, 2008 but more than a month later someone found the post and submitted it to digg and it racked up 360 diggs (which I assume got it on the home page or close to it).

The whole thing has given me a much needed rude awakening. I need to use this promotion medium more and start taking advantage of these social sites. Whilst I am still going to continue writing the same kind of posts for the blog, I am more aware of what posts do well on Digg and StumbleUpon so I will write more ‘digg’ like posts from time to time.

I’ll talk more about my experiences with these sites in the next few weeks and hopefully show you some examples, as I think it’s more helpful to learn from what works and what doesn’t. In the meantime, if you have any practical tips for promoting a site through Digg or StumbleUpon I’d love to hear them :)

Thanks,
Kevin

I run a number of blogs, and some other random money making sites as well. Up until now all my blogs have been single author, meaning that I am the only person writing on them. I have always liked it this way as I can be in total control of the content on the blog.

However, with the rise in popularity of some of my blogs I have less time per blog, so I have decided to change my way of doing things and opt for a writing team on one of my new blogs.

There are of course advantages and disadvantages to forming a writing team on a blog, lets look at why some people prefer working as a team:

  • More content can be produced quicker time frame
  • Different views can be expressed on the same blog
  • Promotion can be done by several people instead of just one, gain exposure faster
  • Regular updates as more people to update

As well as the advantages there are also many disadvantages:

  • Lack of control
  • Posts may be publish to close together
  • Some writers may write more than others
  • Content could get duplicated
  • Payment for writers

The decision to stay solo or work in a team is usually an easy one for each blogger, for example, ProTycoon.com will always be a single author blog, with occasional guest posts.

I have recently bought a new blog called ‘Football News Online‘, it is a soccer news site. The problem with soccer news is that it is updating all the time, and covers such a broad area. This means that it is hard for one person to update the blog all the time. This is the perfect example of a blog that suits a writing team rather than a solo author.

One of the problems that comes with using a writing team is that the writers will usually expect a payment, you will striggle to find bloggers that are willing to work for free, but there are some out there. You then have to decide what payment method you are going to use, the two most common are:

  • Monthly Fee – The blogger is paid a set amount each month.
  • Revenue Share – Each blogger takes a % of the blogs earnings for the month

With my new blog I am going to opt for the ‘Revenue Share’ option as this will encourage the writers to promote the blog more actively.

I am still very new to this and will keep you all informed of how it progresses, this will be my guinea pig blog for writing teams. Stay tuned for progress updates.

Do you use single author or writing teams on your blog? What are your views on using writing teams?

If you are interested in becoming a writer for ‘Football News Online‘, please feel free to get in touch. The site is still in production so sorry about the layout! My aim is to get football news from all over the world, I am currently looking for MLS and English football writers.

Many of my loyal readers will know about my Technorati Targets but for those of you that do not know, I have set myself a number of targets to reach on Technorati, they are:

Target Authority: 200 – Currently 78

Target Fans:20 – Currently 5

Target Rank: 200,000 – Currently 86,554

As you can see I have managed to dramatically improve my Technorati Rank, I want to share with you how I have managed to make such a big leap up the rankings.

Before I explain how I Increased my Technorati Rank lets look at how the Technorati rank is calculated. The rank is calculated using Technorati Authority, you gain Authority by getting mentions on other blogs. Technorati believes that your blog carries Authority if you are being mentioned on other blogs.

So as you can see, to increase your technorati rank you have to get other bloggers to link back to your blog.

How did I increase my Technorati Rank:

  1. I ran a contest
  2. I asked other bloggers to link to my posts

As many of you will know I am currently running a contest here at ProTycoon.com, one of the ways entrants can increase their chance of winning is to write a post and link it back to ProTycoon.com. This of course has helped to increase my sites Authority and in turn helped to increase my Technorati Rank.

Another method that I have used is to tell other bloggers about my best posts, in the hope that they will link to them in their links roundup posts. This has helped me to pick up a few extra Authority points.

If I keep up these tactics I should soon be in the top 50k blogs.

Help me reach my goals by becoming a fan of ProTycoon.com

I want to know how you increase your Technorati Rank, what is your best tactic?
