Face left it, people put ‘t tend to trust great organizations more, if him ’s the government of the USA, Microsoft, sitecom, Enron, etc people however trust people that they know, and as to make deals with people they know and make confidence. When the executive blogs, they become part of the face and personality related to the organization. They establish confidence. They establish approval.

The Benefits of Learning SEO

Filed Under (Affiliate Marketing, Article, Bidding, Business, Google, Links, Organic SEO, SEM, Search Engine, Search Engine Optimization, Seo Services, Tips, Traffic, Website, advertising) by Deepak Shrivastava on 20-11-2008

Learning SEO has a number of benefits, including :

  • Learn to drive traffic to your own websites, selling your own products, and / or affiliate products & services
  • Become an SEO consultant, providing services to other businesses by driving targeted search engine traffic to their websites
  • Opportunities to gain well paid positions within professional SEO companies.

So if you were thinking about learning SEO just to help you to get more traffic to your own website, you’ll now realize that the benefits are not limited to this, in fact there are a number of possibilities & opportunities that come from learning to do SEO properly.

Where do you begin?

Unfortunately leaning SEO properly, isn’t quite as simple as buying a couple of ebooks or programs - if it were, everyone would do it - in order to really learn SEO takes a lot of learning & practise, and can actually take many years.

I started off a number of years ago, with a few ebooks. I thought I knew it all - started working on my own websites - and didn’t get the kind of results I was expecting - in fact I got virtually no search engine traffic to begin with, and felt quite deflated. So I continued to learn & practise until I started to “get” it. I made a number of wrong turns, made mistake after mistake, I tried shortcuts & loop holes which lead me into dead ends, I read good info, bad info, and gradually I started to put the pieces together, finding out for myself what did & didn’t work - and this is how I learned.

What are Web Feeds?

Web feeds are special files, which can be read by almost any computer, and are often used to transfer and deliver important information, news updates, and more. These items can be received by any of several applications known as readers or aggregators. Once the information has been received, an aggregation will display the feed in a more easily readable and “user friendly” format.

Internet users can subscribe to web feeds and get automatic updates, made to the web feed, as soon as they are published. Users can many times view these updates online, in the case of news updates, or you can download the information to your computer, as would be the case if you had a subscription to a podcast or vidcasts.

The process is known as syndication and users can access all the information from one place on a home computer, rather than have to access dozens of websites to skim materials; many times the feeds will contain short summaries of the articles and information available, and to finish reading the content you will have to click through to the website. With web feeds users can now receive any kind of content including news headlines, blog posts, lists, podcasts, and vidcasts (video podcasts).

Three Simple Seo Tips

Filed Under (Affiliate Marketing, Article, Bidding, Business, Google, Internet, Links, Organic SEO, SEM, Search Engine, Search Engine Optimization, Seo Services, Tips, Traffic, Website, advertising) by Deepak Shrivastava on 11-11-2008

Update your site with regular content updates…
Why not ad a blog to your site? The search engines go nuts for websites that regularly update their content. Make that new content keyword rich and the search engines will really eat it up. Regular tweaking and tracking of results is the key, otherwise you’ll never know what works for your site.

Use targeted Keywords and keyword phrases…
There’s a big difference between keywords that will drive traffic to your page but not convert into sales and keywords and keyword phrases that are laser targeted for what you have to offer – meaning MORE SALES!!! This is where a little extra work can make all the difference. The new Google Adword keyword search tool is a fantastic way to research your keyword phrases. It has recently been updated to show actual search numbers for particular keywords and phrases so you have an excellent idea of what your prospects are using to search for you.

Pack your Pay Per Click and SEO campaigns with the same keywords…
If you use the same keywords in your PPC ads and on the capture page of your site, you let your prospects know they’re in the right place. Different keywords in your ads and on your capture page can lead to a disconnect with your potential customers. We want to instantly connect with a prospect and using this technique works wonders. Don’t believe me? Give it a try. You’ll be very pleasantly surprised.

Google Spam Filters

Google, the Search Engine King, gave more emphasis to keep their search results as clean as possible.

Google search engine ranking algorithm has a variety of spam filters in their ranking algorithm that try to remove low quality web sites.

If your web site gets caught by one of these filters, it will be very difficult to get high Google Rankings.

Google Spam Filters are :

1. Google’s Sandbox Filter
2.
Google’s Trust Rank Filter
3. Google’s Domain Age Filter

All the three Google filters take into account the age of a web site. Google Sandbox Filter, implemented by google is a filter that prevents New Web sites from getting high rankings for competitive search terms. This filter is called Google’s Sandbox.

Google’s TrustRank filter is an important filter. Web sites with a high TrustRank get high rankings on Google. The TrustRank of a web site is determined by the age of a web site, the quality of inbound links and the contents of a web site.

The Domain Age filter is another filter that considers the age of your web site. Web sites with old domain names are more likely to get high rankings for competitive keywords on Google.

Make Your Website User Friendly

Here are three simple tip to make your website user-friendly

1. Navigation:- The navigation on your site is probably its most important element. If visitors find your site confusing or cannot successfully navigate through it, they will leave. Make your navigation bar as simple as possible. One of the worst mistakes is using an expanding navigation bar that makes the visitor scroll over it in order for the menu to reveal their options. Most often, this type of navigation bar has too many choices; your visitor doesn’t know where to go, so they get flustered and leave.

2. Page Load Speed:- It’s hard to believe that some people are still stuck using dial up. Even if you have entered the world of high-speed Internet, no matter what you do, some websites will load slowly. (If you’re frustrated using high-speed Internet, imagine the frustration of those on good ‘ol dial up!)

Page load speed is VERY important. I know that when I am surfing the Internet and I stumble upon a site that loads slowly, I get annoyed, frustrated, and don’t browse the site for very long. If your website is loading slowly, you are probably losing out on valuable customers, no matter what business you are in.

3. Information:- The number one thing that visitors look for is information. They are coming to your site to be educated about your products and/or services and, most of all, how THEY can benefit. With this in mind, it is critical for the information on your website to be accurate, complete and up-to-date. Visitors will leave your site in a split second if the information you are providing is old news.

Title tag - Whenever you put a title tag, make sure that it is relevant to the subject matter, and is not just a random one. You put a title to attract your visitors, so ensure that it is short, and snappy.

Article marketing - Notwithstanding which area of article marketing for your blog you have ventured into, there are many public forums for that topic, which you must actively participate in. There are quite a few online communities, where you can post messages or initiate a discussion to increase your visibility, and attract a huge community of people to your website.

Tagging - Tagging is very important. You can visit Technorati for this purpose. If you have many tags on your page, then it will show in the search results.

Technorati-
Testing Technorati is extremely important. You must notify Technorati whenever you have made a comment on a blog. For this purpose, you will need to ping Technorati, or else, you may take the help of Ping-o-matic, which automatically alerts Technorati whenever a comment is posted by you.

Boosting blogs Visibility -
To increase your and your blogs visibility, it has become clear that commenting on other peoples blog is extremely important. But a primary concern is that you must comment on a subject which you are comfortable with. You need to search to get across a proper blog where your comment will be appreciated.

Important notes about htaccess redirection

Filed Under (Affiliate Marketing, Article, Bidding, Business, Google, Internet, Links, Organic SEO, SEM, Search Engine, Search Engine Optimization, Seo Services, Tips, Traffic, Uncategorized, Website, advertising) by Deepak Shrivastava on 27-08-2008

1. Always be sure to upload .htaccess files in ascii mode, sending it up as binary will break it (and usually          make your server very, very unhappy.)

2. .htaccess does not work if you’re on a windows server.

3. Make sure you triple check your changes. Clear your cache and look, test the server headers to make sure      you see a 301 (that means its permanent) not a 302 (temporary) unless you are absolutely sure you really     mean temporary.

4. Since some operating systems don’t allow you to make a file without something before the “.” you may        need to save it as something.htaccess, some may even have to save it as htaccess.txt and change it once       you’ve uploaded it.

5. Make sure your ftp program will show .htaccess files (FileZilla does and is free) It is a bit hard to edit             something you can’t see ;)

6. Double check that you’re not overwriting an old one (some servers already place one there for your custom 404 pages etc.)

7. Make sure you replace example.com with your own sites URL ;-)

With  SEO outsourcing, you won’t need an extra headcount to do the work; you just need to scout the most suitable freelance consultant or SEO practitioner available. The operations of your business will be streamlined and you save a lot of money in the process.

When you choose a freelancer though, you need to create guidelines of relationships and how such relationship should proceed. SEO outsourcing also demands a high standard of quality; otherwise, you will end up rewriting articles and monitoring SEO activities more frequently. This defeats the purpose for SEO outsourcing. With SEO outsourcing, you get a better chance of focusing on your core business goals and processes.
