Tag and Ping - Social Bookmarking Secrets

2009-06-03T01:38:00.000-07:00

Tag and Ping, these three words have suddenly become the mantra that every body seems to be chanting. Its almost reminiscent of the days when Blog and Ping was being sold as the sole panacea for indexing and getting traffic to your sites.

The "Tag And Ping" method that every body is talking about is nothing but taking social bookmarking and leveraging it for SEO.

While social bookmarking has been around for quite some time and was originally intended to help users categorize and store their favorite links online, SEO professionals soon saw the potential for utilizing this to get their sites to rank high.

Tag And Ping can be used to promote any type of website, whether its a website monetized with Google Adsense, your Blog, Your sales page or even a site promoting affiliate products.

You know, luckily not many people know that Social Bookmarking can be used as a link building methodology and this presents you a great opportunity, as a Tag Automator subscriber, to stay one step ahead of the competition.

The strategies explained over the next few emails will help you get an unbelievable avalanche of traffic to your sites and the Tag Automator software suite will multiply that many times more.

So stay tuned and make the most of this strategy.

So, What Is Social Bookmarking ?

Social bookmarking is utilizing a web service, where users create a public repository of bookmarks pertaining to sites that they like.

The concept of social bookmarking dates back to 1996 with the launch of itList.com, followed by services like Blink and Hotlinks and many more. But, the popularity of Social Bookmarking increased with the advent of the most popular bookmarking site till date, del.icio.us.

Social bookmarking sites organize their content using tags. Social bookmarking sites are an increasingly popular way to locate, classify, rank, and share Internet resources through the practice of tagging and inferences drawn from grouping and analysis of tags.

And What is a Tag?

A tag is basically a keyword. It is a label that you categorize a website under. For example if I was tagging this website, I would tag it under "tag and ping", "tag", "ping" etc.

Tagging is simply a way to find a website that I bookmark without remembering where you put it. You can just enter a tag to find websites that you have marked with certain tags.

The tags act as a way to quickly find your bookmarks without remembering where you put them. This is why the bookmark sites allow you to assign more than one tag.

These bookmark sites allow you to share your personal bookmarks with the public. This is where the term "social" comes into play. When you bookmark a site other people can also find the site that you bookmarked if they enter the same tag that you classified the site under.

Not only can you find the sites that you tagged under certain keywords but so can everyone else.

These bookmarks and tags may seem like geekspeak, but from an SEO standpoint these can build you a massive amount of backlinks which seem to originate from authority sites.

How to Use Simple Tag and Ping Marketing Techniques

2009-06-02T01:24:00.000-07:00

If you're just heard the phrase 'Tag and Ping' and scratching your head in puzzlement --- this article may be worth your time. Not that Tag and Ping is some magic marketing formula that will deliver untold riches. It won't.

It is just one more marketing tool professional online marketers are using to give their site or sites a competitive edge over their competition. It will help put your site on the Internet map and if done right, Tag and Ping will deliver plenty of very targeted traffic to your sales pages. It will boost your rankings and increase your sales.

Tag and Ping is one of those simple, yet relatively unknown marketing techniques savvy Internet Marketers have been using and trying to keep quiet for years. To truly understand how Tag and Ping works, you will have to know some basic background information on keywords, blogging, tags, and how all these can work in sync to deliver traffic, links and sales to your site.

What are Blogs?

Most web users will know a blog is an online journal where bloggers post their daily or hourly entries (their opinions, views, info, links) on any subject that interests them. The most popular blogging systems are Blogger.com (owned by Google) Bloglines (owned by Ask Jeeves), LiveJournal, and many professional marketers use the free WordPress software which they can host on their own websites.

Each blog has its own RSS feed -- RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication although its original acronym stood for Rich Site Summary. These RSS feeds broadcasts the information in the blog posts to all concerned parties -- those who have subscribed and use an RSS reader or aggregator to view the posts. Or more commonly, they use the FireFox browser, Google Desktop, or MyYahoo to access their favorite RSS feeds. The next version of Windows will have RSS embedded into its operating system.

What are Tags?

Tags are really another name for keywords. Most surfers will know keywords are the exact words Internet users type into search engines to find what they're looking on the world wide web. Tags work in the same way and are a form of social bookmarking, a way of classifying and accessing all that content in all those countless blogs.

Many major blogging directories such as Technorati use tags to serve up the information to its patrons. One simple technique to create a tag in Technocrati:

<*a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Laptops" rel="tag">Laptops<*/a>
(remove asterisks in actual code)

Or if your blogging software supports categories; this will be recognized by Technorati as a tag.

What the heck is a Ping?

A ping is a simple way to notify the different search engines to let them know that your blog has been updated. You call up or ping your blog post.

You bookmark or place an entry in any one of the countless blogging sites such as Technorati, Furl, del.icio.us, Blinklist, Flickr --- you go to these sites and click your blog or tag to inform them you have updated your blog. Many blogging systems will automatically ping your blog updates.

Or you can do this manually, for example Technorati's ping form is here: http://www.technorati.com/ping

Simple Way to Ping

If this is still confusing to you, one simple way to ping your tags/blogs is to use a site like: http://pingomatic.com/ and it will automatically ping your blog in many of the most popular blogging services.

Enter The Online Professional Marketers and It All Hits the Fan

Of course, online marketers have long discovered that the whole blogging system -- blogs, rss, tags, pinging -- is an excellent marketing vehicle. One great marketing system delivering targeted traffic to their products and services.

It really is a corruption or commercialization of blogging and this surely wasn't the idea the original designers of blogs had in mind. But the whole blogging system is so lucrative, many professional marketers (the author is pleading the fifth!) are using blogging systems like WordPress to create mainly marketing sites that may have little resemblance to a real blog. It just uses the backbone structure of blogs, RSS, Tags to give their sites a slight competitive edge in a very competitive world.

As we saw with the 'comment spam' there is a great likelihood that Tag and Ping will be misused and further antagonize the blogging purists. So if you are going to use Tag and Ping make sure you're creating valuable, usable content -- then most sites will want to link to your site anyway. Content is still king no matter what tricks the professional marketers want to use. Always will be!

Using a Simple Tag and Ping Marketing Technique With Technorati

To explain further the whole idea of Tag and Ping. Lets just walk through a marketing system you can quickly create using Technorati, one of the most popular blogging services.

First, sign your blog up with Technorati. This is quite a simple procedure. Just upload a photo, doesn't have to be of you -- your site's logo will do. Register your profile with your 20 or so tags relating to your blog. Make sure these are keywords you're marketing with your blog. Then you have to place the Technorati code on your blog for a link back.

Next, you must understand that Technorati creates a landing page for each tag in their system. This page is made up of four parts:

Flickr Photos
Recent blog posts tagged with that keyword or phrase
Who’s Blogging About sidebar which links to any profiles of blogs that those same keywords or phrase in their profile
Links from Furl for the same tag

So to take full advantage and to use this marketing technique you have to sign up with both Flickr and Furl. Your aim is to get your links in all four spots on this Technorati landing page for your tag or keyword.

When signing up for Flickr, many marketers use their site's name for their Flickr username, just use a dash instead of a dot in your site's url. You can use a photo of the product they're promoting to get a link from Flickr in the top spot on the landing page. Pick your tags and description for the product.

Set up a Furl account and download the Toolbar , bookmark a few sites to get the hang of how its done.

Now You're Really To Put Everything Together To Tag and Ping

You can start with the Flickr photos at top of the Technorati page. Just post a photo or cover image into your Flickr account, making sure you tag it and use a catchy headline in your description. Link it to your landing or affiliate page url. Example: Don't buy another marketing tool until your check out this site.
Next, make the first of your blog posts on your particular subject or product to your blog, making sure you tag it with your keywords and then ping Technorati. Make all your posts good content, reviews, product information or free downloads. Your entry will appear on the top of the list for that tag shortly in Technorati.
Furl your blog post and your landing/affiliate page with your tags to make sure your entry/post is listed the bottom section of the Technorati page for your tag.

To work this system, add another blog post every few hours, Tag and Ping, plus Furl your posts. For better results you can sign up for countless other social bookmarking sites and bookmark your pages. Here are just a few good ones: del.icio.us, blinklist, moreover, icerocket, weblogs...

Marketing Tips From The Tag And Ping School of Marketing

2009-06-01T01:14:00.000-07:00

Tag and Ping, Google Analytics, Micro-Dissecting Logs, Visual PageRank...

What does all those topics have in common?

No, I haven't gotten into the happy-pill jar, just in case you're wondering! What does all those topics have in common? They are all marketing tactics or strategies I am presently using to promote and propel my sites into the ever increasing, all encompassing Internet stratosphere.

Let's face it, there are countless marketing methods, tricks, tips, strategies you can use to give your site an edge over the competition. And yes, there are many marketing secrets left to be told. More being born each day. Countless secrets most of us will never discover, let alone understand.

But what you have to understand, each webmaster or marketer employs a whole set of techniques to promote and propel their sites. Each marketing system is different, each one can develop into a complex creature slowly weaving its presence into the fabric of the world wide web. Might sound a bit fantastic, but it is nevertheless true.

Also know each website on the Internet has its own unique linking structure, connections, keywords, traffic... its own unique genetic link-code. Why should da Vinci have all the fun!

Each webmaster, whether they realize it or not, creates this unique linking structure for each site they build. From day one, when the first link is placed on their site -- this complex marketing structure is put into motion. What makes some sites succeed, what makes them become successful automatic profit generating machines... while others fail? That is the real question. That is the only real secret you need to know.

Of course, a site's content plays a major role, but even two sites with more or less the same content will have two totally different dynamic linking structures created. One may succeed, the other fail.

So in this line of thinking, I thought I would tell you some of the marketing strategies I use for my sites and also reveal what I believe to be the underlying factor that is key to the whole shebang. Tactics that will promote and propel your site into the center of the world wide web. Are you Ready? Here goes:

Tag and Ping

A few years back, it was all blog and ping. This technique really worked for a while. You wrote a keyword rich entry into one of your blogs and then pinged this entry with one of the many blogging directories or sites like MyYahoo to get the information spidered and indexed. The search engines wised up quickly and it no longer works as well.

Now, you will hear the magic words 'Tag and Ping' till you're sick of hearing them. This is a method I have been using for some time. It's basically the same thing, only you're using the tag or tagging system of such sites as Technorati to draw attention to your tag or keyword.

It has a special application for keyword marketing and is very effective for getting traffic and links to your keywords. One simple way to use tags with Technorati:

<*a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Computers" rel="tag">Computers<*/a>
(remove asterisks in actual code)

Or if your blogging software supports categories; this will be recognized by Technorati as a tag.

Since this is a relatively new way of marketing your site, expect it to work for a little while. Until the spammers get in and ruin it, like they did to blog comments.

Google Analytics

This is a free program from Google that every webmaster should be using. If you don't use it -- get it! www.google.com/analytics

Google Analytics will give you priceless information about your sites, your links, your visitors and your marketing. It will show you which pages are working, which pages are not working. It will tell you which pages holds your visitor's attention, which pages lead to your marketing goals/sales...in other words it will tell you how effective your site is at getting the job done.

The more knowledge you have about your site, the more successful it will be. A lot of times, being a success is finding/tracking the one method or technique that works and repeating it again and again on your other pages or sites. Google analytics will help you find the successful techniques on your site. Then you have to run with them.

Micro-Dissecting Logs

Another valuable source of information about your site is in your daily logs. If you're not dissecting or micro inspecting your daily hosting logs, you're not realizing the full potential of your site. Your site's logs holds the keys to your site's success, it holds the information that will make your site profitable or more profitable.

It will give you information on your site, it will also give you information on your site's visitors. The real key to Internet marketing is finding out what exactly your visitors are looking for and then giving it to them. Find out the exact keywords your visitors type into search engines, then supply the answer or solution on your site. It is as simple as that -- give your visitors what they want.

Whether it is more information on 'the nature of the universe' or where they can purchase the cheapest laptop? Just supply the answer to their question. Your daily logs will give you this information, read them, dissect them and most of all use them to give your visitors what they want. Make your content relevant.

Buying Links

This marketing technique has mixed reviews, many marketers use it -- many discourage it.

You have to be very careful when buying links, know exactly what you're buying and be wary of the search engines who may look down upon this practice. Don't buy any links from link farms, or sites which have been banned from Google. Stay clear of any black hat tricks or methods, play fair and you will win in the long run.

To me, buying links is just another way of advertising your site. If your site or online business is successful, naturally you're going to put some of your profits back into promoting or advertising your site. One way to do this is through buying links on high ranked pages/sites: PR5 or over.

I recently bought my first text link!

It's something I rarely do, mainly because my article writing produces many one-way links back to my site. However, there was one site I just wanted to get a link from, and if it means I have to pay $7 a month for the link, so be it.

Currently the page has a PR0! Why would I buy a link on a PR0 page -- don't worry, still haven't gotten into that happy-pill jar. Because it's a very new popular page on a very popular new site. The site is www.iwebtool.com and it has an Alexa ranking under 2000. The site is about a year old! The page itself holds what I believe will be a very popular webmaster tool that shows you visually all the PR rankings on any webpage on the net.

Visual PageRank.

In other words, just type in any url and it will show you visually all the Google PR rankings for all the links on that page, internal links and external links. Valuable information any webmaster or marketer can use. Besides, that page has a cool factor which in my opinion will propel it to a very high PR ranking in the future. There are already a few pages on this site with a PR6 ranking, but all those links have been sold. Once this new page was created, I jumped at a chance to get a link there on that site.

Other places to purchase links:

www.linkhaul.com

www.linkadage.com

www.textlinkbrokers.com

One more Marketing Technique

There is one more important marketing method that makes all the above techniques pale in comparison. This simple technique is article marketing. Write simple informative articles on the subject of your site. Submit these keyword rich articles to online article directories like EzineArticles.com and place links back to your site in the resource box at the end of each article.

Article writing is one of the best methods to market your site, you will be surprised at the effectiveness of this simple marketing technique. Done correctly, it can be your most powerful marketing tool.

Information Core.

Did you get the big picture? Did you get the underlying theme running through all these Internet marketing techniques? The common thread that holds everything together? What makes them effective?

That common thread is Information.

Information runs the web. It is the center. Dispensing this information is a complex system consisting of search engines, directories, websites, blogs... you must entangle and entwine your site as deeply as you can into this information process.

That's why article writing is such an effective marketing tool, it strikes at the center of this essential process. It places your content and your site right in the middle of all this exchange of information. The more relevant your content, the closer you will get to the real action and the more popular your site will become.

Remember, all these marketing techniques are not really secrets, just effective ways you can promote and propel your site or sites closer to the information core that runs the web. The thread that binds everything together. The closer you can get your site to this center, the better
it will flourish. The more you can entangle your site into the whole mix.... search engines, directories, links to popular sites... the more successful your site will become.

All these marketing techniques: tag and ping, article marketing, buying links... will help place your site into this information mix. Likewise, Google Analytics, micro-dissecting your logs, and visual pagerank are all information gathering methods every webmaster should use to make this journey easier and quicker. Knowledge is the only real marketing tool you need.

So go 'Tag and Ping' all you like but realize it is just the latest in a long line of marketing techniques you should be using to promote and propel your site closer towards the one common thread that really matters.

Tag And Ping Your Way To More Website Traffic

2009-05-31T01:07:00.000-07:00

What are called Social Bookmarking sites are websites that organize their content using tags, instead of a directory structure like Yahoo. A typical social bookmarking site is Tag4Profit.com

Social Bookmarking is an increasingly popular way to locate and classify websites. Instead of one editor categorizing sites in a directory, tagging takes a populist approach. The more people who tag a website with a keyword, the more likely it is that other people will see those tags and social bookmarks, and also visit the site.

Instead of paying to be listed at the top of search rankings, social bookmarking lets people decide what are the best websites associated with a certain keyword.

At least in theory.

The process can be gamed to some extent. Dozens of accounts at social bookmarking sites can be created for the purpose of creating tags listing a particular website.

There is also the problem with misspellings and people using misleading tags to associate with a web page.

However, since creating tags is still for the most part a manual, tedious process, athis greatly reduces the likelihood of widespread bookmarking spam. Moreover, a complaint from those using a service can cause such spam to be quickly deleted.

A tag is basically a keyword. It is a label that you categorize a website under.

The tags act as a way to quickly find your bookmarks without remembering where you put them. This is why the bookmark sites allow you to assign more than one tag.

You can also share your personal bookmarks with the public. This is where the term social in social bookmarking comes into play. When you bookmark a site other people can also find the site that you bookmarked if they enter the same tag that you classified the site under.

Tags can also be included in blog posts. This also helps the sites find web content that is being categorized by a certain keyword.

There are two general ways this increases traffic to your website.

First, people using social bookmarking websites search on a keyword. When your site, tagged with that keyword, comes back in the results, that link to your site can be clicked on to bring the person to your website.

Second, since the social bookmarking tags can themselves be tagged by others, some tag pages will become authoritative resources for the best websites. What this means is that a page of tags for sites about, for example, 'polar bears' may become so valuable that webmasters will link to that page on the social bookmarking website as a resource about 'polar bears'.

In short, this gives the social bookmarking tags page a good page rank. Being linked to, or tagged, from such authoritative pages increases the value of your website to some search engines, particularly Google. In turn, this will bump your website up the search listings.

How Can Your SEO Keywords Make Money?

2009-05-29T00:43:00.000-07:00

As you likely know by now, there is a big difference between effective, quality website content, and search engine optimized (SEO) website content that will obtain the highest ranks in search engines and directories such as Google, Yahoo!, and MSN. However, to apply SEO properly to your website, you first need to know which keywords to use. Once you have them, you also need to know if those keywords are working for you, or if you will need to tweak them to get better results. After all, a keyword is only as good as the money it makes for you.

The keyword itself is a certain word or phrase that someone would type into a search engine or web directory in order to find your website. The keyword you choose for any given page should describe that page in a way that a regular web surfer would search for it. The keyword should be a direct reflection of the content of that page. They should never contain any random or additional words that have nothing to do with you, your business, or your website. If they do contain these excess words, then you won't obtain the maximum results from your SEO strategy.

Among the most widely accepted keyword strategies is that the number of keywords in a website should never exceed 21-22. There are sites out there that have well over six and seven hundred keywords, without any content to back those keywords up. Even if they did have content for every one of those keywords, there would be no point, since search engines will ignore any keyword over their limit of 22 words.

Keywords are each counted as one word. Key phrases, on the other hand, are also counted as one, no matter how many words make them up. For example, if you owned a computer company, a keyword could be "computers". This would be counted as one word. However, you could also have a key phrase "discount computer company", which would also be counted as one.

Even though key phrases are each counted as only one keyword, you should always keep them very short and straight to the point, without any excess words or puff.

To properly apply these keywords to your website, you first need to come up with a list of 21 or 22 keywords/key phrases that will describe your website content, such as the product or service you are selling. You then need to work them into your content, as well as into the site description coding and any additional information you submit to the search engines upon registration with them.

To identify the keywords, there are many different tools that you can use. You can pull them straight out of the air, have friends and colleagues brainstorm with you, or use one or two of many different softwares that are available for specifically that purpose. One of the most popular among these softwares is the Overture Keyword Suggestion Tool. You simply need to tell it what your site is about, and it will suggest a number of different potential keywords based on what has been searched for within the last past month.

By making sure that you're using the right keywords, you're much more likely to choose exactly the word or phrase that a web surfer might type when searching for what your site has to offer. This is the entire point of SEO. When done properly, you'll increase the number of visitors to your site, and will therefore experience increased sales. Your website will be more visible, more find-able, and more successful, all by selecting the right wording. Though it may sound complex at first, once you get the hang of it, it does become much more routine. You must remember, though, that this is a time consuming process, and is something that you will need to maintain for the entire life of your website. If you don't have the time or willingness to dedicate to your website, be certain to hire a professional to do it for you. It is definitely worth the extra few dollars that it will cost. The increased sales will pay for the SEO many times over.

Should You Tag and Ping?

2009-05-27T00:47:00.000-07:00

You own a blog, and you want to make money from it. How do you do that? Well, to start with you need to get traffic to your blog. It doesn't matter how brilliant the content of your blog is, if nobody ever sees it, then you're never going to make any money from it.

So how do you go about getting more visitors to your site? Well, unless you're willing to pay money for a Google Adwords campaign or something similar, then you need to make sure the major search engines like you. Or more to the point, convince the search engines that other websites like you! This is known as link popularity, and is often used by the search engines to determine whether or not to improve the ranking of a site in search results. The more links you have from other websites pointing to your website, the more "popular" your site is deemed to be, and the better its ranking.

Of course, like most strategies for improving traffic, linking has been abused and overdone in a big way with Internet marketers. They set up thousands of links from sites that had nothing to do with their own blog, and got rewarded for it. Now, however, search engines are mostly interested in relevant links. So if you have a blog about grooming dogs, and you have a link from a dog site, great. If the links is from a site about cheese, however, chances are it won't help with your link popularity.

So the bottom line is that there's no point joining any type of link farm, where you can buy or trade links with sites that have no relevancy to yours. You need to focus on obtaining links from complementary sites, which is best done by finding those sites online and writing to the site owner. Time consuming, but it pays off. Particularly if the site that links to you has a high page rank in Google.

If this all sounds like a lot of work - guess what, it is! That's where the tag and ping technique comes into it. Basically, you list your blog on an authority site, and every time you update your blog, you let them know. The authority site needs can be either a social bookmarking site, like del.icio.us, or a blog directory, like Technorati. When you list your blog, you include a list of tags, or keywords, that your blog is about. So going back to the dog grooming example, you would use tags like "dog", "dogs", "dog grooming" and so on. That way, when people go to these authority sites and search for dog grooming, your site will be on the list.

The second part of the technique is to ping the sites you list your blog with. A ping is simply like giving the site a courtesy phone call to tell them your blog has a new post on it. It's all done automatically, either by visiting the site and clicking on an update option for your blog, or you can set up a ping facility at a site like Pingomatic. Then all you need to do is refresh your ping request, and Pingomatic will automatically notify as many blog directories as you choose. This is a great way of letting lots of places at once know you've updated your blog.

It takes a few minutes to add your site to sites like del.icio.us, or to create a new job in Pingomatic. But the good thing is that once it's done, it only takes a minute or two to update these authority sites, so that they can list your freshest content immediately.

To help you get started with tag and ping, I recommend that you check out an automated social bookmarking tool called the Auto Social Poster. This tool will allow you to automatically bookmark pages of your Wordpress blog and then tag and ping those pages. It does the tedious work so that you can focus on other aspects of your business.

Tag and ping is quite simple, so give it a try, and once you get the hang of it you'll find it's almost an automatic thing to tag and ping every time you post something new to your blog. Even better, you'll start to see an improvement in your traffic and ranking.

Tag and Ping - the Answer to Easy Traffic?

2009-05-25T00:50:00.000-07:00

Tag and Ping, there has been lots of hype about this relatively new and unknown method of getting lots of traffic.

How does it work? Whereas normal websites use keywords, blog sites like Technorati among others use tags. Tags work in a similar way to keywords.

Lets take an example. If a post is written about Labrador retrievers, it could be posted under the tag Labrador retrievers.

It is possible to post under more than one tag, so it could include puppies as well for example. Use tag and ping for maximum traffic by posting under different tags.

The big benefit with using tags is that with sites like Technorati which monitors millions of blogs is that when a post is added, the tag that is was posted under will be at the top of the index for that tag.

It is possible to do search by tags and find the latest post under any tag.

If a highly popular tag is used like music for example, then the post will not remain at the top of the tag lists for long, as there are many posts added using music.

The benefit is that when using a very popular tag, it can result in a lot of traffic and back links.

If a high traffic tag is used, then it is possible to use this traffic for adsense payments, direct to affiliate links or any other way you like.

If used correctly, tag and ping can result in a lot of traffic and links to your sites.

If blogs are something new to you, then sign up for either a free blog like Blogger, which is owned by Google, and it is possible to have a blog up and running in five minutes.

There are several options available for free and paid blogs. I recommend using Wordpress. It is available as a free and also a paid version that can be used on a paid hosting account.

The reason why it is advisable to have a blog on your own hosting account is that there is more control of the blog.

With hosting very cheap, from around $7 per month, and domain names form $8 per year, it is recommended to have your own hosting as this offers a more professional image to visitors.

To get maximum benefit, use a combination of free and hosted blogs.

Then sign up for an account with Technorati or other blog sites enter your blog details, and the tags you would like to use.

Start to post to your blogs; the next step is to ping (which is a way of letting Technorati know that new content has been added, and they will visit your blog).

It is possible to ping Technorati directly, or use other services like Pingomatic, which not only pings Technorati but various other sites to let them know new content has been added.

If you want to know what are the most popular tags, visit Technorati.com and it is possible to see the most popular tags. Of course posting under one of these tags means you will be at the top of the list of results for that tag for a short time.

But using some other tags that are less popular, with tag and ping it is possible to have your post with links to your sites or affiliate links on display for several days.

Tag and Ping is an effective way to get traffic to blogs and websites, use it as part of your plan for getting traffic.

Tag and Ping is not Dead

2009-05-23T00:53:00.000-07:00

Some months ago a young guy from Thailand by the name of Sean Wu revealed what some big name gurus have been quietly doing for years already to get almost immediate traffic to their sites and to get them noticed by the search engine spiders. Of course, I am talking about Tag and Ping.

What exactly is Tag and Ping?

You may have heard the term Blog and Ping before. That´s a method which was a perfect way to get the search engine spiders coming to your site very quickly. I say was because it has become less effective than in the 2 years before.

The search engines do not value blogs that much anymore if they are pinging the blog directories extensively. But you can still get permanent links on these sites if you submit your site to their directories using a tool like my Blog Promoter.

Tagging is another, similar way to drive laser targeted traffic to a website. Basically, tagging means that you want your posts to appear on social bookmarking sites (sites to organize your bookmarks online) under certain keywords or categories aka Tags.

Apart from social bookmarking sites there are a kind of hybrid sites as they combine social bookmarking with blog posts. The most popular site in this category is Technorati.com. As these sites have thousands of regular visitors looking for regularly updated content, it is a much faster way to get traffic to your website than waiting to get listed in the search engines.

What are the benefits of Tag and Ping? – it´s free – nnot too complicated – you don´t have to buy additional software to do it – you can get high PR backlinks to your website – almost immediate traffic to your site

Unfortunately, some spammers have been using these techniques to such an extent that several social bookmarking sites had to take countermeasures to protect their integrity.

Conclusion

It´s important that you don´t use this method in an unethical manner like Sean Wu suggested in his ebook (by creating multiple profiles on these sites and use their voting system to make your site appear more popular).

This would destroy the effectiveness of that method. But used ethically, Tag and Ping and the use of social bookmarking sites in general is a great long-term strategy and will enable you to achieve permanent and long term exposure for your all of your websites and blogs if you´re playing by the rules. Then this method will continue to work and bring your sites many advantages.

And not to forget, you´ll get permanent backlinks from authority sites even if not all of them will help you with your link popularity as some bookmarking sites have added a no follow tag to all of their pages. This means that the search engines won't follow the link to your site and it won't help you in your rankings.

Organic SEO Top 10 Myths

2009-05-19T01:09:00.000-07:00

There are many SEO myths circulating on the Internet. These misconceptions are often crazy and while some are based on partial reality, others have spread due to the lack of being proved wrong.

Here is an example: Let's assume you make a change to your website content. Maybe after a few days you notice that your Google ranking for a certain keyword has altered. Now, it would be natural for you to assume that your content change had led to change in ranking. However, it may not be true. Your ranking could have changed due to several reasons, and may have absolutely nothing to do with the changes made to the content.

Of course, this action of mixing up the cause and effect is a common error on the part of new SEOs. Well, if it were limited to just their work, I wouldn't really mind it. But these guys are clueless and many a times spread their ignorance to other newbies on blogs and forums and create a ripple effect of newer myths. Here, I am making an attempt to discuss and clear the top 10 organic SEO myths:

Organic SEO Myth 1: You must submit your website URL to search engines. Once upon a time, this could have been the "in" thing. But since the past 5-6 years it has become unnecessary.

Organic SEO Myth 2: In order to get better ranking, you absolutely need a Google Sitemap. It's partially correct. However, if you have built your site properly (ensured its crawler-friendly) you don't require a Google Sitemap. That being said, having one won't hurt you and you can even use other Webmaster Central tools offered by Google, but this doesn't guarantee higher ranking.

Organic SEO Myth 3: For higher rankings, update your website regularly. Regular updating of your content pages may certainly increase the crawl rate for search engines, but not your website rankings. Only update your website content it is necessary and not because search engines will like it any better. As a matter of fact, the highest ranked websites on Google are those that haven't been updated in years!

Organic SEO Myth 4: PPC (pay per click) ads can help or hurt rankings. What amuses me most is that several people believe that participating in Google AdWords campaigns will hurt their organic SEO ranking, while many other believe that PPC will spike the traffic and up the ranking. All I can say is that neither of this is true!

Organic SEO Myth 5: Not following guidelines on Google will ban your website. Google's guidelines are common sense but not mandatory. It's advisable to read them, however just don't do any thing purely for search engines and you'll be fine.

Organic SEO Myth 6: Buying links can lead to banning of your website. It is partially true again. Google doesn't like to count paid links as votes for a website page. Mostly Google is unable to find out if the links are paid for, but even if it does, it won't count the links. Google won't ban your website in any case. A quick update, Google has made it easier to report paid links in sites that are unrelated to your site. Thought the reasoning is yet unclear and best practice should tell you don't buy links in unrelated site to your theme.

Organic SEO Myth 7: Header tags or H1 should be used to ensure high ranking. There is no evidence to prove this. However, this is one of the most common myths. You can reach top Google positioning without H1 but they certainly don't hurt so use H tags correctly.

Organic SEO Myth 8: Meta keywords tag need to be used on your page. The fact is that a Meta keyword tag was introduced to use keywords that are NOT on the site page already! However, this tag is ignored by Google in any case.

Organic SEO Myth 9: The SEO copy should be 250 words in length. 250 words is not really an optimal number nor is it specific for SEO rankings. Easily, 250 words allow one to write a good marketing copy and can be optimized for 3-5 main key phrases. However, shorter SEO copies work just as well.

Organic SEO Myth 10: Your pages should be optimized for the long tail keywords. This is not true. Nowadays, long-tail keyword phrases are no longer effective as not many pages use them and not many people search using long tails. You can include these keywords in blogs or even an article, but that is not really optimization.

Remember don't go spreading any SEO myths that you believe may be true. Test it yourself several times on different websites before reaching any conclusion as there are other factors involved as well.

Easy Organic SEO Tips for Your Website

2009-05-17T01:08:00.000-07:00

Many websites want to use SEO for optimal use. The best SEO is organic SEO. Organic SEO is the perfect combination of intuition and skill. There is a saying that many SEO writers and web designers use: write and create websites for human first and search engines second. When you create a top-notch website with excellent articles that capture someone's interest, you are naturally going to use keywords that people will search for that topic most often. Organic SEO is simply using a strong dose of good common sense.

We've all seen websites that look like they were designed by robots, or people that simply didn't keep the visitor in mind. When you use organic SEO, you are always keeping the visitor well in mind. Yes, you do want to attract as many visitors as possible. You do this through having an excellent website that is both attractive and practical.

Update your site frequently - but not too frequently. Many think that SEO means to update your website all the time. This is not quite the case. You want your website to be updated with "sticky content" that has visitors returning to your website. Visitors should find articles and graphics appealing and attractive. When the articles at your website are interesting and people want to email them to their friends: you know you have been successful. Checking your website stats for both unique and return visitors can also give you a strong indication of how your organic SEO is working.

Use multiple keywords. An excellent suggestion to employ organic SEO is to use multiple keywords. Just about every topic one can think of can have several keywords. Incorporate two to three keywords in each article. These will help the search engines catch your articles and web copy easily, knowing that they have the information that people are searching for on this topic. When articles and copy have related keywords it is very useful for many purposes, including organic SEO.

Keep organic SEO copy at least 250 words in length. While you can occasionally write articles or copy (such as a blog post) that is shorter in length, it is probably best to keep things longer than 250 words. Articles and copy that are 250 words or longer help to capture the attention of the search engine and spiders that seek out the information when people do searches for the topics they are looking for. You don't want your copy to not be included, simply because it is too short!

Write longer articles (600 +) whenever. Many Internet Marketers have found great success in using articles that are longer than 600 words. These "long tail" articles are great at getting the search engine and spiders attention. It can be easy to request your copy to be a bit longer from your copywriter when you order it, or if you are writing it yourself simply to write a bit longer. A good practice is to try some long tail articles or copy and see how successful they are for you, notice the hits you are receiving on those particular pages. This will help you gauge your success rate.

Many have been successful at organic SEO without knowing what this was, before it even had a name. These people simply created websites they were passionate about, with top-quality information. They wanted to entertain and inform visitors. They genuinely wanted their website visitor to return to their website. That is at the true heart of organic SEO: pleasing your visitors one by one.

Organic SEO should not be difficult. As a matter of fact, it should be quite straight-forward and very logical. When creating something for your organic SEO purposes, if your first thought is "would a visitor appreciate this at our website?" you know you are on the right track. Always keep the visitors' enjoyment and appreciation well in mind, and your organic SEO success will be along right behind it!

Why Organic SEO is Superior to Sponsored SEO Results and Listings

2009-05-15T00:04:00.000-07:00

One of the buzzwords in search engine optimization at the moment is "organic SEO". Look at any SEO service or content provider and 9 times out of 10 they'll say that they only use organic SEO methods to improve your website's ranking - I should know, since it's one of the mottos of my company! So what is organic SEO and why is it so important?

Simply put, organic SEO is the type of website optimization that offers natural results from search engines. When you go to a search engine like Google or Yahoo and you type in the keyword or phrase that you're looking for, there are normally two kinds of results that pop up - sponsored listings and organic SEO.

Sponsored listings are the ones that you see either at the top, bottom or right hand side of the search engine page whenever the result of a search pops up. These are normally company or business names in their own boxes, ans are a result of that company paying Google, Yahoo and the other search engines to place them on the front page for a certain keyword search.

The problem with sponsored SEO is that unless you have a fairly large ongoing budget, you'll soon run out of advertising space. Additionally, the majority of people look at the top 10 results for the keyword they used - otherwise known as organic SEO. This pretty much negates the need for sponsored listing.

The benefits of organic SEO over sponsored listings are numerous. Some of the key benefits include:

Less expensive than sponsored listings
Offers a true measure of your search engine optimization success
Organic SEO can be more easily managed than sponsored listings

Another benefit of organic SEO is that since any visitor coming to your website from an organic SEO result is doing so because they have found your specific service, there is more chance of a sale or call-to-action. After all, whereas a sponsored listing may just mention a business that sells bananas, your company may sell dessert baby bananas - therefore anyone typing that into a search engine will come to your site, as long as the content is optimized for SEO. This is what organic SEO offers.

As long as Google and other search engines continue changing how their search engine results work, webmasters and companies will need to keep on top of their website optimization. If you're unsure, SEO specialists and content providers using organic SEO will be able to help you keep on top of the Google rankings by using organic SEO and optimized content for your site.

Today, natural looking websites that are designed keeping the need of the visitors in mind are the best way to reach the top of SERPs.

Let's find out how you can do this for your website.

Before we explain in greater detail about organic SEO, why not get to know the advantage of this SEO technique? While organic search engine optimization is extremely beneficial for all websites, it is also highly cost effective as compared to paid search and PPC listings. According to some predictions, the spending on search engine optimization will increase to $11 billion by next year (2011) from just $7 billion last year. Therefore, it is a good thought to balance your search engine marketing spending with organic SEO and paid search such as PPC.

Now that we have understood the REAL advantage of organic SEO, it's time to understand why search engines such as Google lean towards websites that are natural looking and designed more for the visitors rather than the search robots. When you use organic SEO on your site, you are combine the natural appeal of your content with design with development, making it appear on the top of these search engines' page rankings.

Most of the search engine page results that you see at the top are all organic results.

Sure, the paid search results appear at the top of the page followed by organic SEO results, it has been found that more searchers prefer to check out the organic listings! This is especially true for Google results. Because it has a reputation of throwing high quality sites on the first few SERPs. In any case, organic search engine optimization aims to help your site reach the top of the biggest search engines.

Many search engine marketing specialists are of the opinion that organic SEO is an excellent medium to long term SEM strategy. Perhaps that is why more specialists are insisting on organic SEO for their clients.

Fortunately, you no longer have to wait for considerable amount time for your site to get index. Today, the entire procedure takes few months than before. Nevertheless, you will have to wait for a few months with some of your keywords before you can actually start seeing the results of the SEO labor.

As such, organic SEO is a sustained effort and once the traffic start building up, you need to continue with your SEO campaign.

Why? Because the websites after you on the search engine result pages will continue to get better links and if you don't continue your SEO process, will soon leave you behind.

So remember organic SEO or ethical SEO is one of the most beneficial ways to generate traffic and offers you excellent return on investment. Don't get demotivated by the time it takes for results to shine through, just keep working!

2009-05-12T00:37:00.000-07:00

Employing Meta Tags for Search Engine Promotion:

Professional SEO consultants improve your search engine listings and placements by using Meta tags in your website. Most search engines like Google are greatly influenced by Meta tags in listing and indexing web pages. Meta tags are best used for describing your site in the search results. If there is no description tag, search engines will take the first few lines and declare them as a description, which may prove futile. You will have to give a brief description of your page in the Meta description tag and include significant information in the beginning of the paragraph. This is important because search engines grabs the initial 200 characters and displays them in the SERPS.

Keyword Placement:

Professional SEO firms ensure keywords are used in the right places. The keywords pertaining to a service or product are placed in the title tag of each web page. Some consultants stress on using keywords in the domain name itself.

Using relevant content for the web site:

Professional SEO experts always make sure your website’s content is relevant to the targeted keywords. For example, if your website focuses on software, the content must be related to keywords pertaining to software.

There are many SEO companies that offer such affordable SEO services on an annual or monthly contract.

Taking care of all these factors will ensure that the Organic SEO methods that you use for your site will be successful.

Organic search engine optimization methods involve using all the legal and white hat methods for the optimization of a site on the web. If you make use of all the legal methods, it will ensure that you will never be tangled in any kind of legal mess.

It is not humanely possible for search engines to crawl the huge number of websites on the web. So it is not a person rather automated software called spiders or bots used to crawl the sites. The relevance and importance of a site is determined based on the results of the crawling done by the software. Since search engines keep on changing their algorithm and criteria for giving rankings to sites, you must be fully aware of what is needed to attract the attention of all the major search engines.

7 Ubiquitous Organic SEO Myths You Must Avoid

2009-05-09T00:49:00.000-07:00

The Internet Marketing is a world, full of webmasters who vie amongst themselves to topple each other in terms of their website rankings on several popular search engines including Google. They deploy a dozen of so called organic SEO tricks to their online marketing campaign to achieve better ROI and improve their bottom-line. However, quite a few organic SEO companies are embroiled in some organic SEO myths. Let’s take a quick look at what keeps some organic SEO companies in the shadows.

Organic SEO Myth #1 - SEO Copy Should Be 250 Words

One of the most prevalent SEO myths among the organic SEO companies is the number of words on the web page. It is believed that short copies rank better than longer copies. There are no such established rules that substantiate this supposition. However, a word count of 250 words with an ideal keyword density of 2% is, usually, universally acceptable.

Organic SEO Myth #2 – Google Sitemap is Inevitable

An organic SEO company need not worry about the Google sitemap on their website as Google sitemap no longer influences the rankings of a website. However, having a Google sitemap is not a negative factor. If your website is well-designed with a crawler-friendly navigation, you should be able to rank pretty well on that.

Organic SEO Myth #3 – URL Submission to Search Engines is Vital

Gone are the days when this practice was very helpful in bringing good results in terms of higher search engine ranking. URL submission to search engines is no longer effective now. However, submission to search engines is not bad at all for any organic SEO company.

Organic SEO Myth #4 – Header Tags Can Boost Organic Rankings

Header Tags such as H1, H1 and H2 should be used only when they are required to complement the webpage from design stand point. There is very little evidence that corroborate the popular belief that Header Tags influence the search engine rankings of an organic SEO company.

Organic SEO Myth #4 – PPC Ads Influence Website Rankings

Many webmasters wrongly take PPC Ads as a supporting camping to their organic SEO campaigns. However, it is not at all true that running Google AdWords affect any organic SEO campaign, either positively or negatively. It has absolutely nothing to do with the website rankings of any website.

Organic SEO Myth #5 – Meta Keywords Must Be Used on the Webpage

One of the most hyped organic SEO myths is using the meta keywords on the webpages. Meta keywords are usually used because it is not practically possible to use all keywords on the webpages. Hence, by using the meta keywords that do not find their place on the webpage, we increase the chance of the webpages to rank higher. Hence, it is unnecessary to use all the meta keywords on the webpages.

Organic SEO Myth #5 – Website Should Be Optimized for Long-Tail Keywords

Long-tail keywords are not very popular, whether with the organic SEO companies or searchers. Since they are not competitive, no body searches for them, ranking for them is simple. However, it doesn’t make sense to rank higher for keywords that are not very popular or competitive in the organic SEO industry.

Organic SEO?

2009-05-07T00:22:00.000-07:00

Organic SEO is a term used for natural content that lends itself to ranking well in search listings under a specific subject matter or topic. No tricks, keyword stuffing, or other techniques that are considered unnatural. The idea is that if you provide useful content that is of value to the visitor, the search engines will not only give you good rankings now but in the future too.

People spend a lot of time trying to figure out the latest and greatest trick or method to achieve good search engines rankings. There are some important basics to adhere to but in the long run, it's pretty simple to get good rankings. Provide unique content of value in the given subject area.

Organic or natural search engine optimization is following the guidelines of the major search engines and providing useful information. So how can you do that when there are already 5 or 6 million other resources that do the same thing?

One way is to do it better, provide a unique twist, and the detail necessary to separate you from the crowd. Some of the one-word popular search terms get up to 2 billion results displayed on a typical search. That's right my friend, you may have billions of competitors for a popular search term.

Dig down a little deeper, just like most searchers will do eventually, and the competition will thin out. Get down to a very specific aspect of the search query, and two things happen. First, you are in a less competitive area and second, you are better targeting your potential visitor.

You don't want just any visitor, you want someone is has an interest in your particular area of the base search term or subject. It doesn't matter if you are trying to sell something, provide information, or promote your opinion to influence others. You should always drill down and be specific in your content to reach your intended audience.

Another important part of Organic SEO is following the known guidelines of the search engines. Naming conventions (page, title, even domain) have an impact on rankings. Creating well-designed layouts for both the reader and the search engine bots (bots are software programs that go out and visit the websites) helps too.

Areas on each web page such as navigation menus and internal links need to be in proper format and easy to find. Descriptive phrases or information about the link should be clear and concise. Providing complementary or associated information gives your reader more options to spend more time on your website.

It's easy to get lost in the weeds when working with search engine optimization. There are few rules, but many guidelines. Too many times people look for an absolute, when there are none to be found. And always remember that the search engines constantly re-evaluate their ranking methods to both eliminate the cheaters and improve the quality of results.

While I can't use a picture in this article, I can give you an example that may be helpful in better understanding organic SEO. For our example lets use gardening as the subject matter. In our example the website will sell items that gardeners might be interested in buying. There are lots of subcategories in gardening to choose from, so lets go with house plants. And maybe drill down a little further in this area to succulents (plants that thrive with very little water).

Providing information on any and every aspect of our subject of succulents will provide a lot of content to attract the visitors interested in that type of information. You could have sections on growing, identifying, indigenous, and flowering for starters. Each page would have very specific information on each area, presented in a unique method around house plant applications.

The layout and design should have the page names, titles, and links that use descriptive terms to identify the subject matter. Unique content could be personal experience, recommendations in specific placements, etc. Each web page could display items for sale that apply to that subject matter. Or you could also display affiliate links to other websites that pay you a commission on sales.

So you can see from this example that the information provided is the key to attracting visitors with an interest in the subject matter. Search engines will see that too, and serve up your web page when someone searches for your topics. The goal of the search engines it to provide the best possible results to the query. If your information provides that information, you get listed.

There are many parts to the puzzle in search engine optimization. Organic SEO is just one part but if you do it well, you can get some good results in search engine traffic. Providing valuable and unique information on your website will attract visitors via their queries on the popular search engines.

Organic SEO and Plucking the Low Hanging Fruit

2009-05-05T00:07:00.000-07:00

Just like planting seeds Organic SEO as an internet marketing strategy requires patience, but the rewards when reaped are plentiful.

Although organic optimization is not the first choice for many (depending on the brand and business model) organic search does have inherent benefits that are unparalleled by sponsored or paid advertising tactics.

Conversion is all About Trust

The distinction of hearing something directly from a trusted third party referral is one of the oldest and most successful forms of market leverage a brand can develop. Particularly when purchasing decisions are being formulated in the mind of prospective consumers.

It is this element of trust (like hearing about a great coffee shop or restaurant from a friend) that encourages people to part with their hard earned cash and step up to try a new product, travel to a destination, try something new, etc.

With the obvious advantages of organic search (ranking highly in the natural search results) and the multitudes of low hanging fruit available for the picking (as far as keywords go).

Is it simply lack of patience, lack of brand flexibility or simple ignorance to the benefits of an effective organic search engine optimization campaign that keeps PPC in business or the people who use it so enthralled by it's influence.

You have to consider the variables:

Not everyone has content that is ideal or suitable for organic search.
Branding may conflict with excessive verbiage
Timing, market share and a fast yielding sales cycles may not provide ample time to wait on organic search results to mature

The entire notion based on volatile purchasing of select keywords and bidding on them (based on competition and click through rates) doesn't necessarily encourage businesses or webmasters to focus on content quality first, only cost per click & conversion.

Rather that viewing your marketing campaigns short-term goals using logic of PPC, the downside of PPC is just that, you have to pay per click.

Not a problem for a publicly traded company or a product with a high profit margin (since branding is important) as not all products can have 10 pages dedicated to them or an entire site wrapped around it to create relevance to develop the process of growing seed keywords into fully grown top 10 rankings.

But for many struggling businesses the costs keep rising and just like gas prices, exorbitant fees are a result of supply and demand.

In contrast, the upside of Organic search engine optimization is, once you overcome the on-page (content) and off-page (link building) factors, you can potentially reap untold amounts of traffic from various long-tail keywords if optimized properly.

The Bottom Line, It's all about the Brand Strategy

It's not always what you sell, it's how you sell it that determines if renting via Pay Per Click (PPC) or owning/developing brand equity (Organic SEO) is the right decision for your business.

I wanted to use an example to elaborate such as the difference between "high self monitor advertising" and "low self monitor advertising".

A high self monitor mentality is akin to a stark Madison avenue ad where images are the brand, the feeling they create is what they are selling, where the person transposes themselves with the subject or theme of the ad. They envision the fulfillment and how the use of the product or service will impact them. Which type of consumer are you or does it depend on the product?

An example of a "high self monitor ad" would be a new fragrance launch employing the advertising angle of a young, attractive, successful couple relaxing on the beach scantily clad in casual attire, the girl wearing a designer bikini and a few pieces of glamorous jewelry, the man ideally wearing a $30,000 Rolex watch, shirt open, pants rolled up and barefoot in the sand, exhibiting playful demeanor and expressions of care free abandon frolicking about the beach.

Then, naturally, "THE BIG FONT" with a stylish Name (after months of A/B testing, focus groups and rounds of review of course) and actual fragrance product/bottle are the only things in sight. The Price tag (doesn't matter) and you probably wont see one until you go to purchase it, it's the lifestyle your buying into.

Whereas a "low self monitor advertisement" and low self monitor consumer would focus on the product (why is the bottle so strange?), the details, what's in it, how much does it cost?, do I need it, why in the hell are they on a beach with perfume?, etc. Clearly the needs of the consumer dictates the marketing method employed in the brand strategy. Which one are you?

Organic search and sponsored internet marketing are no different. There is a clear-cut method that appeals to each type of consumer, so based on the product you are selling it really boils down to if the ends justify the means and who benefits. It's all about building pre-qualified traffic that inherently has a need for your product or service vs. window shoppers or tire-kickers if your business model utilizes e-commerce.

Conclusion:

Organic SEO is fine if you;

Have a product that you can dedicate 300-750 words to to describe it's value.
Can exhibit supporting materials images, references and materials that emphasize the products benefits.
If you can shroud it in semantic synonyms or jargon (essentially keywords consumers might use to find it) in enough frequency, that it can leverage a high-ranking organic search result.

Aside from that, if you have a product that has a high price point, where there is some wiggle room for how much you are willing to spend to keep the cost per sale within bounds, then by all means pay per click advertising is a viable solution. Another alternative is possibly a hybrid of the two (organic SEO and PPC) to find which method has the highest conversion for your brand.

At the end of the day, if you're in business, you have to weigh the advantages of how your marketing strategies and profit margin impact the bottom line. In closing, one key factor to consider is with organic search results, the keywords branch out over time, so dozens of the keywords you pay for every time someone clicks, you could achieve through an organic search engine optimization campaign.

If you have the time and a great product that is news or review worthy, ultimately, the choice is yours.

Choosing The Right SEO Keywords

2009-05-04T00:40:00.000-07:00

The first step is to brainstorm and make a list of, say, 25 of what you think might be keywords and phrases a web searcher would use to find your page. Come up with both single words and phrases. We'll use some neat tools to narrow these down and even discover some nuggets you might not have thought of.

As a rule, optimizing for a single word is a lesson in frustration. For instance, can you imagine how many pages on the web would be competing for a single word like cars? Millions!

However, using a single keyword to search for those hidden nuggets is, well, priceless!

Keyword Research Tools

Next, you will need some tools to help you find those perfect keyword phrases for your site. Although there are tons of commercial tools on the market, I am going to concentrate on some freely available tools that I have found of particular value.

These will help you find out how popular your keyword phrases are (how many times they are searched for in a given time period) and how much competition you will have with your phrase. And, because this article is targeted to the newbie SEO, these free tools give you a chance to kick the tires before you buy the top of the line model.

My favorite is the Google AdWords Keyword Tool. What? You say you are not running any AdWords pay per click campaigns! Why would you use this tool?

The answer is that Google AdWords Keyword Tool is free for anyone to use. You do NOT have to be running any AdWords PPC campaigns and the tool gives valuable keyword research information in a graphical, easy to understand format, perfect for the newbie!

And, yes, this tool is based on AdWords, so the search volume reflects PPC search and competition, but these estimates will apply to organic search as well.

Here's a perfect example of how what you think you want to rank for might be in opposition to reality.

I live in Palm Springs, California and have done web design for real estate agents in the past. We must have 10,000 real estate agents in the desert and each and every one of them has a web site and each and every one of them would like to rank #1 for the keyword phrase palm springs real estate.

The trick here is to find more green in the Search Volume bar and less green in the Competition bar. In this example, you'll see 100% competition for a moderate search volume for the phrase palm springs real estate. This tells me that optimizing for that phrase is probably not worth the effort. It would be better to try to target other phrases with less competition for the search volume.

For instance, the Palm Springs area has a large gay population and there's no competition (no green bar) for palm springs gay real estate which has a moderate amount of search volume. If this is a community that you'd like to target, then this is the kind of search phrase you want to look for - search volume with little or no competition. Look around. You never know what targeted keyword phrases you will discover.

See how you can think you know what to target as far as keywords and how easy it is to be way off?

Try running your single keyword ideas through this tool and you are likely to find good keyword phrases with little or no competition for you to target as well. And, the Google AdWords Keyword Tool makes downloading the keyword lists you generate a snap for offline use.

Then, select the keyword phrases that look like they might work for you and run each of them through the tool again to create a list of even more highly targeted keywords.

Another free, non-graphical tool you might want to try is the Free Keyword Suggestion Tool from WordTracker. WordTracker also offers a good paid version, but the free tool is enough to get you started.

Unlike the Adwords Keyword Tool, this tool takes data from DogPile and Metacrawler, so the results are more organic in nature, but, as you will see, somewhat similar.

As you can see, you get a list of keyword phrases and the volume of searches for them in the past 90 days. This gives you a great place to start looking, but it does not give you any idea of the competition as the Adwords tool does. My suggestion is that you use both tools, comparing the lists to see what you might have missed on one or the other.

The main objectives of organic SEO is to strategize and find techniques to improve the company's brand visibility, attract larger and better-targeted volumes of search engine users and to expand the company' market shares.

It refers to manual page optimization in contrast with the automatic submittal and page alteration, which is completely different from the general Search Engine Optimization and an automated way of optimizing the ranking of a particular web site.

Other Things to Know:

Similar to organic SEO, the general search engine optimization have their importance. They both are simultaneously used these days. General search engine optimization follows the concept of pay per click advertisements. It is known that many search engine optimization companies prefer organic search engine optimization and are using paid searchers more regularly for various businesses.

Next, it may take several months to plan a web site for organic search engine optimization. On the other hand, it is also crucial to work hard and make the web site unique from others, as there is cutthroat competition in this industry today.

Successful and major organic search engine optimization listings consist of key words or phrases, which are unlikely to be found on other sites.

Tricks on Organic SEO

2009-05-01T01:25:00.000-07:00

Search engines help to generate traffic to your website at the same time they also help promoting your website on the internet and build a web presence for it. There are two major ways in which a website can be optimized on the search engines. Organic SEO is the more beneficial one between the pay per click and organic search engine optimization procedures.

Out of the numerous benefits that organic SEO provides to the websites, the most vital one is that they are permanent and free of cost. The rankings acquired through organic search do not run the risk of being lost after a certain time period. Similarly it is not bound by any contract payment unlike the PPC, where a particular campaign expires as soon as the pre paid amount for the clicks is exhausted.

Though organic SEO is a comparatively slower process than PPC, it is always suggested to run an organic search engine optimization campaign in order to enjoy its long term benefits. But before getting into the process there are a few important points that must be remembered and followed so that the organic SEO techniques prove beneficial to the website.

The first tip here is to be extremely clear about the website. What product or service does it sell, how does it do it and how many deals does it make in a given point of time. It is important to get focused on a particular USP of the site that has the potential to sell the most.

Just in case the website as many important USPs and all of them are important and need to be highlighted. There must be a provision to have separate pages for each of these services or products. A separate page will help in optimizing each of the pages separately and will provide better returns from them.

Keywords play an important role in organic SEO, the concerned website will be listed in the search engines only when the end user types in the keywords that has been optimized or a comparatively relevant keyword to the website content. Hence, the selection of keywords must be done with great care. Select keywords that are popular with the end users and match with your website content as well.

To Know If Your Seo Keywords Are Making Money

SEO - Managing A Site With Natural SEO

2009-04-30T01:51:00.000-07:00

Most sites that can be said to have natural SEO are those that are classified as informational sites. Informational sites can be money-making monsters as it is your clients that supply most of the keyworded copy that ends up in your Q and A sections, forums and other places on your site.

The most successful informational site include magnet content authored by experts (and search engine optimized professionally if need be), a means of collaborating with another equally big or bigger site and most importantly --powerful facilities for allowing users to contribute content. After all it is crucial to the success of your site to have your web visitors constantly adding their own thoughts to your site, which in turn are then crawled by the search engine spiders and indexed as new content.

However one problem with an informational site with natural SEO is that it can become hard to manage over time. You need a means of moderating the site and also a way of identifying and eliminating problematic members of your online community who may be supplying irrelevant content or even hijacking your business.

Managing this type of site comes down to choosing the right web host. You need to choose one that will allow you to keep a database of users, keep track of who looked at your site and at exactly what and keep track of which users are costing you the most time and money with little payback. You might also need to buy software to keep track of how users are coming into the site and which external links they are selecting (clickthroughs) and keep track of which advertisers' banner ads have been served and to whom and whether or not they were effective. This type of vigilance is typical of a successful SEO maintenance program to keep an informational community operating at its smoothest.

SEO - Insider Tips To Creating SEO Keywords And Phrases

2009-04-30T00:26:00.000-07:00

If you have been practicing search engine optimization you probably already know that it is a good idea to include quotes in your keywords and keywords phrases to make your web copy more attractive to the search engines. You probably also know that is a good idea to put things that your site specifically sells in quotes so that the search engine spiders see you as having exclusive or specialized content or information. However there are a few more tips that come along with creating SEO keywords and phrases that are less well known.

Many SEO experts advise practicing word stemming. This means that when you do find a keyword that works that you should not hesitate to use it in the words different forms. For example take the phrase "SEO optimization". You might also want to use phrases such as SEO optimizing, SEO optimized and SEO optimizers which branch out linguistically from your original keyword.

Another big tip is to avoid using what are called kill terms. This is just a phrase for conjunctions and prepositions that are largely ignored by the search engines. Common kill terms include a, an and, at, by, for, in, it, of, the too, to, web and with.

Yet another tip is to be aware of case sensitive keywords. When in doubt you should always submit them in lower case. However when it comes to names and places you might also want to put things in their proper cases. For instance if you are searching for Frank Kern you will want to put in Frank Kern as well as frank kern. Some experts even advise putting in a keyword all in caps as in FRANK KERN as many individuals have stuck capital key caps when they search. The search engine that is thought to be most sensitive to case is Alta Vista.

SEO Copywriting Services Secrets - The 7 Essential Elements of Killer SEO Copy and Content

2009-04-28T21:59:00.000-07:00

Gone are the days of stuffing copy with target keywords and watching it climb to the top of the search engines. Search engines have become a lot smarter than that and when you hire SEO copywriting services, you have to be sure that the writers put human readers before search engines. Here are the 7 essential elements of today's killer SEO copy.

1. The copy is good enough to attract links

Professional web copy sprinkled with target keyword phrases and written by a professional freelance web writer will help your site's search engine ranking improve. However, the most important factor in improving your site's ranking is through link-building. As such, your site copy's primary objective should be to attract high-quality backlinks. The best way to do this is with professionally written web content that is informative and interesting in addition to being keyword-rich. Make sure the content on your site is easy to find and add a blog to your site. Search engines love sites that are updated frequently and blogs of course require frequent updating.

2. The keywords are strategically placed

Using target keywords in your copy is important but they must be placed on certain parts of each page for optimal effectiveness. The headlines of your content and the title tags of each page must contain your target keywords. Search engines also place importance on the first few sentences of your copy so make sure the writers providing your SEO copywriting services include your target keywords there.

3. The copy contains high search volume, low competition keywords

If you can afford it, hire a freelance web writer with SEO experience to conduct keyword research to find the so-called "money" keywords. If you are on a tight budget, use a free keyword research tool such as Google's free AdWords tool to find keywords that have low advertiser competition and high search volume. This will give you a better idea of what people are searching for on Google and which keywords have less competition.

4. The copy contains keyword phrases that are synonymous with your target keywords

Don't just focus narrowly on the keywords you have chosen. Use keyword phrases that are relevant to your target terms as well. This will broaden your copy's scope and help you reach a larger audience.

5. The copy contains a call to action

No copy is worth your domain if it doesn't contain a call to action. Make sure it's clear to the reader from the get go that your product or service provides them with benefits. Start with describing their situation and feelings and then list the benefits of your offer. From there, make sure it's obvious to your readers what you want them to do, whether it is to subscribe to your newsletter, buy your product, or call you. Crafting copy that has a clear sales message and is optimized for the search engines requires skill and experience. Make sure to use professional SEO copywriting services to achieve this goal.

6. It's not obvious to readers that the copy is optimized

Nothing is a bigger turn off for readers than writing that is obviously optimized. Keyword stuffing is a practice of yesteryear that only makes your site look bad. Have a professional freelance web writer create copy for you that packs an SEO punch but doesn't read like it was attacked by the keyword monster.

7. The headlines grab readers' attention

Nothing will hook your readers in more than a compelling headline. Of course your headline must also contain your target keyword phrase so it gets the attention of search engines. Some of the most popular headlines ask a question (not a yes or no question) to entice readers to keep reading in order to find out the answer to the question. For example, the headline "Are you making these deadly mistakes when you file taxes?" makes readers want to know more. And then of course there are the quintessential numbered headlines such as, "7 Surefire Ways to Get Him to Propose." However you approach the headline, make sure it gives readers a good reason to keep going.

Is Organic SEO Work Makes Worth?

2009-04-28T01:16:00.000-07:00

What is Organic SEO (Search Engine Optimization)?

Organic SEO" refers to the manual type of page optimization vs. automatic submittal and page alteration." The important thing to note is that when a company first gets listed on Google's first page, the traffic in the first two months goes up almost exponentially, and conversion rates also improve strongly,"

I would say this is my favorite way of optimizing websites. You bring in traffic by using content that works, linking strategies, and adding value via interactivity and a great user experience, not paid search listings.

Money will definitely be spent in the areas of site redesign and probably in getting content (you may actually have to hire writers to get content) but then again, if you are a web designer who is building your own websites on a low (or nonexistent) budget, organic SEO is definitely the way to go. It may take some time, but you will actually grow in real time experience as you move towards your SEO goals.

Organic SEO (Search Engine Optimization) facts: It has always been recognised that organic search listings or general search listings are the ones most used by search engine browsers to the extent that research shows in excess of 70% of search engine users prefer these listings to the 30% of browsers that utilise sponsored listings or PPC. Most corporate search engine optimisation companies now avoid organic SEO and have moved ever further towards paid search (PPC). Although High Position is an expert in paid inclusion programme set up and management the golden egg has always been the organic listings. Ethical search engine optimisation and compliance technology is the only way to gain these listings..

The main difference between the two methods of marketing is that PPC is aimed entirely at your budget and skill in setting the campaign, however, organic listings are based on the quality and stature of your website in conjunction with the strict search engine guidelines.

Complete the exercise for yourself, go onto www.google.co.uk and search for your main products and services, are you there? If so well done but it may be inadvertently, remember 2006 was started with BMW being thrown out of Googles database for black hat techniques. This highlights the need for High Position to analyse your corporation's website to make sure you are compliant and maximised!!

The Myth of Overnight Success

There are few things that get to me more than the assumption that a large goal (such as getting to number one for a keyword on Google's SERPs) can be done overnight. The easiest SEO I have ever done for an unknown site was done over the course of a month, via content refreshing alone. The key word was unique (blue interface), and the competing web sites were half asleep while we worked.

The issue with this myth is that customers actually believe it. They post jobs such as "We want to be number one in the following key words" then list close to a dozen key words, and everything has to be done under a budget of a thousand dollars and in record time. Organic SEO works, is adaptable and ensures high rankings on SERPs over the long time despite changing algorithms, but nobody can guarantee anything in a month.

Why Organic SEO is Better Than PPC

2009-04-27T22:12:00.000-07:00

Despite the fact that both organic SEO and PPC are part of the same system - Search Engine Marketing, there are a few very basic yet essential factors that distinguish organic SEO from PPC and make it much better than the latter. Some of the benefits organic SEO has over PPC are as follows:

It provides long term solutions:

Organic search results might be slow in listing the websites, but its listing is a much more stable and long term process. The search listing which appears through organic search is a more permanent one than PPC which generally runs for a specified time span after which it dissolves and disappears.

The click through rates is higher:

Research proves that the end users too have a tendency of clicking on the organic results more than the paid listings that appear on the search engine result pages. This makes the click through results of organic SEO almost 70% higher than those of the paid search results.

Quality Traffic:

Since the organic SEO are mostly dependent on keywords, that are selected after a proper research and survey on user tendency and demographics is conducted, it suggests that the traffic too will be saturated and of good quality too. The search engine techniques is entirely based on keywords, the end users type in a keyword relevant o their search and the search engines display results that match with their requirement. This makes is evident that the users will only type what they are looking for, and will land into your page only if it is relevant to their search. Therefore, the possibility of having low quality traffic is comparatively low here.

Many more avenues:

Unlike PPC campaigns that only depend on keyword bidding, the organic SEO also involves a number of other techniques of attracting traffic as well. this makes it double effective than the PPC. The natural or organic search also includes content writing, link building or link exchange and other on page and off page promotions to help enhance the traffic flow to a website.

Low Cost Marketing:

The last and the most important difference between organic search and PPC is that the former is a no cost search promotion technique. Organic SEO does not require you to spend any many on marketing, unlike PPC where, one has to keep paying the search engines every time a click is generated.

Search Engine Optimization - Ensuring the Best Results for your Business

2009-04-27T21:59:00.000-07:00

In last, today every site wants to be featured in the top ten list of the search engine. Therefore, to reach such cliff, you need to understand the algorithm of the search engines and you should implement changes according to the search engines. In order to achieve the benefits of search engine optimization, an effective SEO strategy is necessary. One of the biggest SEO strategies is link popularity, keyword research and website marketing.

Doing the proper research and finding the correct keyword combination will bring you're the proper rankings in the search engines and a traffic that is targeted to your site, and the added benefit is that it is free traffic. As you heard many time before content is king, your content should be structured to include the keywords that are relevant to your site, and your website needs to be SEO optimized so the search engines can spider it with ease. All the other pages on your site should revolve around a central theme and all be related in some way.

When visitors come to your website the text on the home page should explain and reflect the theme of your site and all of the other pages should relate to it. Search engine optimization or SEO is the hottest way to drive targeted traffic to your website. Your investment in the future of your website will be worth while. The reason you need to optimize your site is to get rankings in the search engines, by concentrating on search phrases and by promoting these keywords you will begin to build your rankings in the search engines.

Billions of sites are updated daily and they all need to be crawled on a daily basis. You can purchase high PR links and shorten the waiting period of getting your site in the serps. Check you site for broken links, not having links that work will have a negative effect on your sites ranking if the links stay broken for a period of time.

High quality articles are quickly snapped up and published prolifically. Every time you write an article and you get it published you receive another link pointing back to your site which will in turn increase your link popularity. Traffic is generated to your website from your signature box. This article can be freely published on a website as long as. With this wonderful innovation in web writing, each article will surely be given ample attention in terms of engine optimization and accessibility. The natural listing depends on the optimization techniques employed on and off the web site. A single article can be reprinted hundreds of times, and each time is another link back to your site. Ensure that each web page of yours would focus on a particular keyword or key phrase. If there is an article in that page, make sure that the article will only discuss and include one keyword or key phrase from the list you have made.

Getting more traffic is pointless if your site isn't an efficient sales machine. Since there are only a "handful" of search engines that everyone uses (the major ones), this is where we place our best promotional efforts. If you encourage them to link to your site, join your newsletter, read your articles, and so on, then the traffic will increase your search engine popularity. If you only sell product, then that is what you get money for products. Traffic is a must if any online business is to succeed.
