Tips For Effective SEO

Tips For Effective SEO

When Google changed the rules for SEO to make it harder for black hat Internet marketers to game the search engine, many people felt that SEO was dead. However, there is still a place for SEO techniques, not just to attract traffic, but also to monetize your site. The problem comes in when people start following formulas that don't change and adapt with the market.
SEO is time-sensitive. 
 What may be a brilliant strategy in one time-frame can end up being panned by Google in another. That's what happened with all those people who took such great care to stuff their meta tags with keywords. Now, they're basically ignored. If that was their entire SEO strategy, it would have left them with a rapidly declining page rank and virtual anonymity in the search engine result pages. So, try to follow good, time-tested, rules of practice that can keep your site active and ranking near the top of the search engine pages.
These strategies may sound like common sense, and they are. You should try to keep up with changes as Google changes their algorithm so that you don't end up being affected negatively by a change in their policies. But, using straightforward common sense can also help to keep you doing fine when others are scrambling to implement new strategies to make up for poorly thought out choices earlier. So, let's review some ways to make the SEO in your articles and press releases have a timeless quality to them.
Choose Familiar Words
Don't try to get too fancy or hog all the trendy words coming out for SEO keyword phrases. While they are great for a short time, they'll eventually fall out of favor and so will your traffic. Try to stick to keyword phrases with familiar words in them that also have been checked for low competition, high CPC and search volume. You may not get everything you want from those criteria, but try to get whatever you can.
Choose Words That Follow The Goldilocks Rule
The keywords you want to focus on shouldn't be too narrow or too broad in scope, just like your website niche. That's to help you target the demographic in a way that generates the most traffic that you can from it.
Start Small
If you don't have a whole lot of time to devote to SEO, don't worry about it. What's most important is to get a start on it. You can start with just developing a niche from SEO research or using it to add value to your advertising campaigns. Don't feel like you have to go whole hog and flood every press release with tons of keywords. Don't think you're not doing it right if you don't have time to join a social network or write for article directories. Do what you can and learn as you go.
By the way, are you a coach, consultant, entrepreneur, speaker, small business owner or online marketer who is tired of getting paid less than you are worth for your coaching and consulting?
What if you could learn how to package and sell your coaching packages for $4k, $8k, even $12k or $25k and enroll multiple clients per month at those prices?

The Price for Lying

The Price for Lying: "The Price for Lying
PostDateIcon October 22nd, 2009 | PostAuthorIcon Author: John Berling Hardy

People lie so easily these days. There are overt lies, such as how old we are, how much money we make and where we were last night. Then there are the covert lies — lies of omission. For instance, when an executive tells his wife he will be travelling abroad on business but neglects to add the fact he is also visiting his mistress.

Then there are lies of implication – we know, in saying one thing, there is a whole series of implications our listener is likely to make based on their character and previous experience. Of course these do not count as lies in court of law, but they are no less misleading than the other two categories.

An example that comes to mind was when my friend Chris referred to his friend Lex, saying, “That boy, I worry about him. I do my best but I don’t know…”"

Making Money On The Internet Is No Easy Task

Making Money On The Internet Is No Easy Task

There are many so called experts on the internet that claim that making money on the internet is every bit as easy as wiping your butt after using the bathroom. And they of course will give the "inside secrets", for a price. In my experience many such offers are a scam, and the information that you receive for your money is full of more fluff than crème filled donut from your local supermarket. In most cases you can get information that's just as good by searching article directories.
Don't let anyone fool you, making money on the internet is exactly like making money in any form of business. Remember the Internet is just a way to do business. Just like the telephone or direct mail are ways of doing business. Contrary to popular belief, making money in any form of business is a process and not at all an easy task.
The task can become easy and fun in time, but it's not going to start out that way. There are many things that you must learn in order to make money on the Internet, or anywhere else for that matter. It's kind of like riding a bike. Did you jump on a bicycle the first time you ever saw one and ride off? No you had to fall down and keep trying in order to learn how to ride a bike. Making money on the internet, or anywhere else, uses the same principle.
The bottom line is that making money on the internet simply isn't a simple and easy task, and anyone that tells you that this is the case has their best interest in mind, not yours. You can make money on the Internet, just realize that it takes time and effort, and it's not going to happen overnight. The best weapon that you have at your disposal is educating yourself. Good luck and remember what Henry David Thoreau said, " Do not hire a man who does your work for money, but him who does it for love of it." Your internet venture should be done because you love it, not for the money.

When It Comes To Selling Something Is Honesty Actually The Best Policy?

Is Honesty Actually The Best Policy When It Comes To Selling Something?

Is honesty the best policy when it comes to sales? I believe that honesty is in fact the best policy, but unfortunately it seems that most business people don't necessarily agree. Whether it's making statements such as "you will never have to make another cold call" or "Sure, it's got fifty thousand miles, but they're highway miles" the end result is almost always the same. Many businesspeople think these kinds of statements are fine, because they are "technically true". But in reality, these kinds of statements aren't at all honest.
So is honesty the best policy when it comes to selling something, or can the truth be massaged to make your product or service seem better, when in fact the product is sub par? Is honesty the best policy when it comes to selling something? In my opinion, yes, honesty is the best policy when it comes to selling your product or service. In my experience many of the "technically true" statements simply mean that the product or service is less than high quality.
The bottom line is that many businesspeople in the world today just don't seem to think being totally forthright about their product or service will be beneficial to them. Once again, in my experience, this simply isn't the case. Being forthright and honest about your product or service tends to pay much longer term benefits to you as the salesperson.
It's unfortunate that so many people and businesses feel the need to say anything in order to get the sale. In my opinion this approach hurts everyone involved. The bottom line is that some people will like your product and service and some won't, that's it. The weasels (that use statements such as the ones listed above) seem to have a different approach. They live by the motto that everyone is a sale, and although this is technically true, it's just about as true as the "you'll never make another cold call", which of course isn't really true at all. It's just plain dishonest.
So rather than getting caught up in the semantics of this argument, let's simply end the discussion by saying that honesty is the policy when it comes to sales, that is if you're interested in sleeping well at night. I think Plato said it best when he said, "Honesty is for the most part less profitable than dishonesty", which of course is the reason that a question such as the one posed in this article even exists. I still say that honesty is in fact the best policy when it comes to selling something, no matter what that something might be.

Get A Website Going And You're Good To Go

 Get A Website Going And You're Good To Go and make Money



Have you ever had this thought, or heard someone say such a thing? Because I want to be the first to tell you (if you already didn't have an idea) that it's not quite that simple. No not by a long shot. As a matter of fact, a statement like gat a website going and you're good to go, is tantamount to saying "get yourself a couple of lottery tickets, and you're good to go."
Having a website is exactly like having any other business, although you do tend to run into a lot more nerds in the website world. Imagine That! But it's true, having a website is just like having any other business, and it takes work to make successful. There are no quick fixes, although there are a lot of weasels out there that will try to convince you otherwise.
The bottom line is that it's a complete fallacy that you can simply put a website on the internet and be good to go. If you don't put some work into it all you have is a billboard among about fifty million other billboards. And if you have a billboard among fifty million other billboards, you're chance of being seen are slim to none. So being good to go should be the furthest thing from your mind.
Getting a website going is the easiest part of the process. From that point on, the real work begins. This is a simple fact that you need to be aware of before you make the decision to start a website, because if it's not understood, you'll probably quit before you even have a chance. This is probably the biggest reason websites fail…..they quit before they even have a chance.
So perform your due diligence so that you're aware of what you're getting yourself into and learn some of the simple steps that can tip the odds into your favor. I just don't want you to assume that it's as simple as getting a website going and being good to go. Unfortunately it's just not that simple.

Fishing E-books - Should They Cost More Than Traditional Books?

Fishing E-books - Should They Cost More Than Traditional Books?

Have you ever noticed that fishing e-books, actually almost all ebooks, cost twice as much as traditional books? Have you ever asked yourself why this is? I'll tell you why, because the weasels who sell most e-books have no problem taking their customers for a ride! It simply makes no sense to sell an e-book for more than a traditional book just because of some sort of "perceived" value. Well, not if you're an honest and forthright business/person that is.
I have seen many fishing ebooks out there being offered for thirty dollars or more, when if you go to any bookstore you can buy any fishing book on the shelf for well under this amount. Oh sure, you get the "perceived value" of five or ten bonus reports, and all kinds of supposed guarantees to make the offer seem better, but it seems to me that something is just "off" about this whole process.
Again, should an ebook cost more than a traditional book? Let's think about this for a moment. With an e-book, you download it onto your computer. If you choose to print it out, you're using your ink and paper. So why should it cost more than a traditional book? In my humble opinion, it shouldn't. The information is no different, all that's different is the hype. I'm sure this is true with all e-books, but I know it's true for fishing e-books.
I've seen many fishing e-books being pimped out there and every one I've seen costs at least twenty dollars, and in some cases upwards of forty dollars! It seems to me that this is a complete rip off and an e-book, which puts all of the "labor" on the buyer of said e-book, shouldn't cost more than ten bucks. In any case, that's my opinion, and I could most certainly be wrong.
If you happen to be in the market for fishing ebooks keep an eye out for affordable alternatives to all the options out there, and be careful. There are a ton of less than scrupulous people and companies out there, which have no problem taking advantage of anyone they can. The bottom line is that an e-book shouldn't cost any more money than a traditional book, no matter how many "free" gifts they include. Keep this in mind the next time you're in the market for a fishing e-book.

Making Awkward Keywords Sound Natural in Website Content

Making Awkward Keywords Sound Natural in Website Content

Punctuation and stop words can be used with the keyword phrases you choose to make the copy sound more natural and less search engine oriented. A stop word is a word that is ignored by the Google search engine when it is scanning the copy, so they don't have any effect on the actual keyword phrase, even if they're plopped right smack in the middle.
Google Stop Words
Stop words in Google are words like "and," "the," "for," and "a." There are actually many of these words you can use to help add a little sense to some nonsense sounding keyword phrases that you've found are highly profitable to target. To find a list, just Google; "Google stop words" and you'll get a nice list of them.
Punctuation is also ignored by the Google search engine when scanning the copy for keywords. Even capital letters are ignored. So, if you have a keyword that can end one sentence with a period and start another sentence with a capital, Google will read it as a connected keyword phrase. This type of tip is very useful for the regional keywords that might be something like, "New York Publishing Arts" or something odd. In that case, if you kept repeating this phrase, it wouldn't be hard for a reader to tell that you're trying to feed the search engines the same keyword phrase, and it also sounds very repetitive to the reader.
To keep that from happening, you can use stop words or punctuation. So, the keyword phrase might end up looking something like this in copy:
"The publishing world centers around New York. Publishing arts have grown and matured due to the number of quality writers attracted to this great city."
Or, if you are using stop words:
"Go to New York for publishing arts exposure. You won't regret it!"
By the way, are you a coach, consultant, entrepreneur, speaker, small business owner or online marketer who is tired of getting paid less than you are worth for your coaching and consulting?
What if you could learn how to package and sell your coaching packages for $4k, $8k, even $12k or $25k and enroll multiple clients per month at those prices?

Free Lifetime Traffic

Free Lifetime Traffic for your Website

I heard it said recently by a less than honest person that you could receive free lifetime traffic if you only signed up for this weasel's service. Free lifetime traffic? What in God's name does this even mean? For a neophyte that's new to the Internet, it might sound great, but as someone who runs an online business and actually provides an honest service to customers, I can tell you unequivocally that the term 'free lifetime traffic' is complete and utter BS!
If you have a website of any kind, you need to be weary of weasels making claims like this. Traffic is the lifeblood of any successful website, but there is no person, company, or banner exchange that's going to give you traffic for free. As a matter of fact the only effective way that I have ever found to get free traffic is by writing articles. While this is in fact free, it does require time and effort. The entire prospect of this weasel claiming 'free lifetime traffic' and then attaching a monetary value to it, is just infuriating to me.
If you want traffic for your website you're going to have to invest in it. Either by investing money through advertising, or investing time and effort through writing articles and such. The bottom line is that you must bring value to the marketplace, and in this case the marketplace is the Internet. There are many ways to do this, just make sure you stay away from weasels claiming things such as 'free lifetime traffic'. Remember; anytime someone claims that you can get something for doing nothing, beware!

E-commerce – Learning To Make Money Online

E-commerce – Learning To Make Money Online

That's what we're interested in, correct? Making money online, and making money online is accomplished through E-commerce. That is, having a website with a product to sell, and with any luck, selling that product via the World Wide Web. E-commerce isn't as simple as having a product that you think will sell, slapping a website up, and selling it.
I used to think this is how it worked. I thought if you had a professional looking website, with products I thought would sell, I would receive orders. Then I realized that nothing could be further from the truth. Why I would have thought that the internet was any different from any other business, I'm not sure, but that's obviously what I thought. It may have something to do with all of the crap floating around about people becoming "overnight successes" on the internet. It seems like everywhere a person turns, there's another story in the media about someone making it big on the internet. In any case I fell into the trap of expecting the impossible. Namely, expecting to have a successful website without much effort.
Then after about six months of spinning my wheels, expecting the impossible, I realized a lot more effort was going to have to be put forth. I realized E-commerce was a process. I had to convince people to buy my products, just as is done in any other business. It wasn't enough just to have a page with a product on it, you have to convince the public that they need it.
While learning to make money online, I also realized that many of the people that you talk to, want to make money off of you, and don't truly have the best interests of your website in mind. For example, for months and months our webmaster was pushing a certain product on us to create newsletters. It seemed like a great product, but we had no one to send a newsletter to. Did he have any suggestions for getting subscribers? No, he just wanted us to buy the product. He wanted us to buy the product, because he got a piece of the action. He didn't care whether or not we actually needed it. This kind of thing seems to happen a lot on the internet. I suppose to be truthful, it happens everywhere, not just the internet.
The biggest thing to remember is that making money online is a process and doesn't happen overnight. If you want to make money online, the best thing you can do is start educating yourself. The more educated you can become about the process, the better. You didn't learn how to do long division all at once, right. You learned through a process and making money online is no different.

The Truth about E-Books

E-Books - The Truth

So you've got a great idea for an e-book, huh? That or you've recently purchased an e-book that tells you how to sell e-books, right? This is great, but do you really think it's that easy? You know, just put one of those long, really long, single page websites out into cyberspace explaining everything about how your e-book will change their life, business, or whatever, and the people will buy it. This is the theory, right?
I've even heard it said that that you don't need to know much about a subject, simply do research and write an e-book, and you'll be good to go. This is BS, my friends. All of this garbage comes from people trying to sell you their e-book. Writing the e-book is only a small piece of the puzzle. The weasels want it to seem as if writing the e-book is most of the work. Let me ask you a question, if this were true, why wouldn't everyone write and sell e-books?
What everyone seems to fail to talk about is how you are going to get traffic to this wonderful website promoting your e-book. This is the work my friends, because without traffic, you might as well not have a website! Someone said to me once, "I'm just going to buy a list of names, email them, and a percentage will buy." Again, if it were as simple as buying a list, then emailing that list and making money, why in God's name wouldn't everyone do it?
The truth is that it doesn't work this way. If you truly want to make money with an e-book (or anything else for that matter) you have to work at it. There are no magic formulas out there. The only magic formula is to work at it and bring value to the marketplace. If you're getting into the e-book game just to "make money" you're going to have real problems.
The bottom line is that you're going to have to put whatever your offering in front of potential customers and then convince them that they need your product. The truth is that putting that offer in front of potential customers is the work, and there is nothing that simple or easy about that. Selling e-books (as well as anything else on the internet) takes work my friends, there's simply no way around this 800 pound gorilla that no one wants to talk about.

Do You Want To Make Money Online?

 Do You Want To Make Money Online? Then You Must Read This Article

There are many people that want to make money online, and that's wonderful. The problem is that there are a few things that must be considered before you embark on becoming the next internet millionaire. Contrary to popular belief, making money on the internet isn't as easy as say.....winning the lottery. Making money on the internet is just like making money doing anything.....there's work involved. Before you make the decision to attempt to make money online, consider these points.
1) Traffic doesn't just magically come to your website. You have to "go out and get" traffic. Most people don't realize this. They have the Field of Dreams mentality, "if you build it, they will come." Let me clue you in.....they don't just come, in many respects, you have to go get them.
2) Simply being an affiliate for other products isn't going to make you wealthy. For example, many people believe that slapping an Amazon banner on their site will generate orders. Nope, without traffic it doesn't matter who you affiliate with. Being affiliated with good companies is great and something you should probably do, but again it doesn't matter without traffic.
3) Like any endeavor that you undertake with the goal of generating abundance, there's going to be an investment of money involved. To actually make money online, you're going to have to invest money into your online business. It's as simple as that. If you opened a pizza shop, it would require you to invest money. The online arena is no different.
4) You've probably heard a lot about lists. Email lists to be exact. All of the experts say that you must have a big list, and to continually build your list. If you're just starting out, this means that you have to buy email addresses. This costs money. You hear a lot about opt-in lists, which simply means that a person decided to sign up for your newsletter or e-zine. This is absolutely the best kind of list to have, but what the "experts" fail to mention is the fact that it's difficult (at best) to get people to voluntarily sign up for your e-zine or newsletter. Impossible.......absolutely not, just more difficult than most people let on, and you should be aware of that fact.
5) Making money online is exactly like making money in any other business, the method is just a little bit different. Many so called experts make the internet out to be something that it's simply not. Making money online requires work, just as making money anywhere does.
Keep these points in mind as you move forward. All the success in the world is available; I just wanted to clear up a bit of the misinformation floating around out there. If none of these points scare the living daylights out of you and you still want to make money online, good for you! Keep in mind what Jim Rohn says about money as you move forward, "Time is more value than money. You can get more money, but you cannot get more time."

Getting Your Site Indexed by Search Engines

Getting Your Site Indexed by Search Engines

Not to be mistaken for new page indexing that Google now offers 24 hour on demand page indexing for existing sites that have deployed Google Site Search on their sites. However "On Demand Indexing" now offered by Google can be useful if you decide to get serious about your hot trends business and run a Word Press Blog on your own domain. More on that later.
Site indexing is just that. Getting your new web site or blog's domain name (URL), indexed into it's search engine database. There is no hope of attaining any search engine position, low or high, without Google first doing what is called spidering the Internet with "Bots" that go out and search for new sites and new information on existing sites. These bots are generated from the numerous data centers Google has around the world. When they spider for indexing is a closely held secret. It is not on any regular schedule.
I can remember before Google was even in existence and it taking weeks to sometimes months to get a site indexed in what was the hot search engines and directories of the day. Old systems like Netscapes search engine, Web Crawler, Magellan, Excite, and others have been folded into the biggies we know today. A Few like MSN and Yahoo are a couple that have stood the test of time and the onslaught of Google. One relatively new one "Ask.com" (Used to be "Ask Jeeves), is the only newcomer in years to grow and remain a semi major player. So when I hear people complain about it taking a week to get their new site indexed on Google, I have to laugh just a little. They don't know how good they have it.
Getting your site indexed quickly in the search engines is still not an exact science. At least not in the time frames we need to get them indexed in. so we're not going to rely on them being indexed and certainly not getting 1st page search engine results. Be proactive and getting our own traffic is the key.
However I have seen the methods listed below get a brand new blog indexed in less that 24 hours. That is livable in the fast paced world of hot trends marketing. I will occasionally not mess with the following processes if I found a hot trend that is pretty iffy. I won't take time spending time on something that is a long shot. Why do I take iffy long shots? Because I can afford the time or am between other projects when I do. And it's kind of a kick when I do go for a long shot and it pays off.
With that in mind, it is still worth employing a couple of tricks I've learned along the way. These action steps will only take you a few minutes once you have the process down.

Do You Need Traffic To Your Website? Then Go Get It

 Do You Need Traffic To Your Website? Then Go Get It


If you've had a website for any period of time, you've realized that traffic doesn't magically appear. When I started on the Internet I think this is what I thought. I must of thought that the Internet was like the movie Field Of Dreams, and if you built a website, the traffic would come. I quickly found out that this wasn't at all the case, and actually not even close to the case.
As a matter of fact I found out that you don't magically get any traffic. You have to go out and get traffic. What do I mean by go out and get traffic? You have to write articles, and do book reviews, and go to forums, basically anything where you can get your website "out there" via a resource box. You simply can't expect the traffic to magically appear, because it doesn't.
You also need to optimize your site for the search engines. This should be done while you build it, or you will simply have to redo the stuff that needs done. I'll let you research the SEO process yourself, because once you open that can of worms, you're going to have worms freakin' everywhere! Just don't fall into the trap of thinking you can pay someone 50 bucks a month and be dome with SEO. This is not true.
The bottom line is that if you don't have a big budget to spend on advertising and employee's you need to get creative and go out and get traffic for your website, and if you're reading this article I would have to assume the big budget and team of employee's isn't a viable option. So stop reading this article and start writing some, because writing articles is a good way to drive traffic.

Then Stop Kidding Yourself Do You Want To Make Money Online?

 Do You Want To Make Money Online? Then Stop Kidding Yourself

So you're interested in making money online. I'm assuming that because you're reading an article with this title. The biggest obstacle to making money online is navigating through all of the crap floating around the making money online toilet. And let me tell you something, there's a lot of crap. My first piece of advice is to stop kidding yourself into the fact that it's simple and easy to make money online.
Before I go any further, let me make it abundantly clear that I have no vested interest in you making money online. I'm not selling any e-book or trying to recruit you into a program. My website has nothing to do with any of those things, it has to do with fishing. I simply want to tell you some of what I've learned with the hopes that it may save you some time and money. I realize how incredibly frustrating figuring this "online" thing out can be, so I just wanted to offer my take.
The first thing, as I eluded to before, is that you need to stop kidding yourself into thinking making money online is simple, easy, or quick. Many people, myself included, fall into the trap of thinking that money can be made hand over fist simply because there's a website involved. This is simply not true. Making money online is exactly like making money anywhere else. Many people who want to sell you a "business opportunity" will lie about this fact and make it seem as if making money online is somehow different. Making money online is in no way different than making money in any other business, and surely not because it has the word 'online' attached to it. But these weasels want to make it seem as if it's different simply to get your money.
If you have the intention of making money online you need to educate yourself about the internet before you begin. These 'weasels' that I'm speaking of prey on people who aren't aware of some of the simplest things. I'm not saying that you have to become a tech dork, just educate yourself a bit as to how the Internet works. Look into things such as: affiliate marketing, driving traffic, SEO (search engine optimization), and article writing. Especially the subject of traffic. You need to have a plan in place as to how you're going to get people to your website. Don't do what I did, and jump in to the swimming pool known as the Internet with no real Internet experience or self education. You might almost drown while trying to get a lot of it figured out.
My last piece of advice is to not think that you can solve this puzzle quickly. As I've said making money online is exactly like making money elsewhere, and making money almost never happens overnight. Again, this is where the 'weasels' do their best to convince you otherwise. They will make it seem as if making money with their "system" is easier than taking a breath! Remember what your Mom told you, if it sounds to good to be true, it IS. If you want to really make money online make sure that your passionate about the subject as well. You see, if your passionate about the subject, you won't care about money, and then the money will follow. It's when we do things simply for the promise of money that we get in trouble.

How to Optimize Your Website For Better Page Ranking

As an online entrepreneur, it's very important that you have high page ranking. You would want your website to show up on the top 10 search page results so your target market can easily find you online.
Here's how you can optimize your website:
1. Use keywords on your web content. You will need to sprinkle generous amount of keywords not only on your home page but also on all pages of your website. They must be strategically placed on your content in such a way that you'll be able to help search spiders in analyzing your web content. Use keywords on your headings, on your tags and on your descriptions. However, make sure that you adhere to the appropriate keyword density to avoid being penalized by Google.
2. Build links. Inbound links tell Google and other search engines that your website is informative thus, it's worth linking to. Do an extensive research and find those people who are running a website that compliments your website's theme. Get their contact information and convince them to link with you. I wouldn't lie about it; this can be a time-consuming and overwhelming task but your effort and time will surely worth it.
3. Off page optimization techniques. Aside from emailing webmasters and getting them to link with you, you can also obtain high quality inbound links from other relevant sites through article marketing, blog hopping, and forum posting. Share a slice of your expertise to online users and post your site's URL on your resource box or on your signature. If your audience were impressed with the information you offered, they are most likely to give your site a visit.
