Using SEO to Design Your Website

2008-01-23T04:44:00.002-08:00

Here are some of the things you will need to learn about before you will be able to properly market your website for increased traffic and sales.

Link Farms:
Some search engines use a recommendation system as part of how they rank your web site. So webmasters will often trade links with other webmasters. The different search engines see a link from web site A to web site B as a recommendation from web site A. a link farm is when a web master will have many different websites and will just fill them with links to all the pages of his other sites no matter how unrelated the items on the different sites may be.

Garbage:
In the world of online marketing the more people u reach the more people that may check out your site. In an attempt to get more traffic webmasters have bought lists of email address and regularly send garbage emails called Spam. These emails advertise everything from Viagra to Rolex replicas so amazing a professional can not tell the difference, but the webmasters did not stop there. Email is not the only source for their garbage. Some webmasters have even made websites and filled them with garbage content packed with keywords designed to brig their sits up on as many different search engine searches as they can. On these websites there is no content of any interest and chances are none of it is even remotely relate to the subject you were doing the search for in the first place. These sites only exist so that you will come to the site and hopefully leave thru one of the many links provided on the page. The links are to partner sites that pay for each person who you get to come to their site. Sites like this are also Spam.

Writing:
What you write on your site is very important. The writing has to be good and it has to on topic. If your site if about carpets, you should be writing abut anything subject related such as carpets, rugs, cleaning, storing and anything else that you can think of about carpets. The search engines check ever word on your page and they take the keywords and use them to help determine when you will come up in a web search. Their are many free tools to check which keywords are stronger then others, maybe rugs gets 500 hits a day but carpets gets 1000. Then you would want to have more writing abut carpets.

Algorithms:
An algorithm is basically a mathematical equation. The search engines check over website on the internet every few weeks. It then tallies up how relevant your content keywords are compared to your Meta keywords, the basic design of the site and it counts all the links to your site. It then takes all this information and does what it does and then it comes out with your page rank. Then in another few weeks when it runs it again it will recalculate and re rank the site.

Ease of Use:
It is important to keep in mind when making the site that it needs to be easy to get from one page to another, and that everything is in a logical order to make things easy to find next time. How well the site is designed is a factor in your ranking.

By taking these things into account when building a new site you will make your live much easier.

How To Get Better Blog Traffic by Using Comments to Cement Connections

2008-01-23T04:43:00.002-08:00

Why don't I consider leaving comments a traffic method?

Because commenting isn't meant to generate traffic, it's more of a
by-product.

And yes, there are some things we can use to generate traffic, even
though that isn't their intended purpose, but only when it's ethical.

Leaving comments for traffic alone isn't ethical.

You're trying to take something from a community that worked hard to
get it, instead of getting credit for sharing something with a
community that you belong to, and reciprocating when it's given to you
- these are two different things.

Think about how you'd feel if someone did that to your blog, everytime
you want to evaluate a traffic method related to blogging. If you
wouldn't mind and allow it at your blog, then knock yourself out,
because whatever you are doing to others is about to happen to you.

Commenting to get traffic is also inefficient.

Why?

Let's say you leave one comment.

That comment will probably only bring you traffic as long as that post
is new. When it fades into the archives, you won't get much traffic
from it.

Let's say it's a DoFollow comment, and you're getting link juice. (A
DoFollow comment is one left at the site of a blogger who is purposely
not using the NoFollow attribute.)

Sure, your link will get followed by the search engines, and counted
among the number of links to your site, which may give you a little
boost.

But wouldn't it be better not to have to share that link juice with
the other commenters?

Wouldn't it better to have a whole post dedicated to your site?

Wouldn't it be great to get a Permanent link to your site from their
Blogroll, on a page that has more weight than a single post?

Wouldnt it be cool if someone discovered you by your link and then
shared your link with other people?

So how do you get that kind of action?

Let's look at it logically.

Good Bloggers tend to make posts about…

* Quality tools, content, services, & products that will serve their
community.

* People who are doing innovative, interesting, creative things that
will interest their community,
* Quality tools, content, services, & products that will serve their
community and make them money,
* News of interest to their community that will either save them from
doing a full blog post or help them to do a full blog post,

.. just to name a few.

It follows, then, that if you want a blogger to blog about your site,
to share your site with others, or to add you to their link roll, you
should :

* Make comments that will both help and intrigue the blogger and
his/her community, which make a good introduction to you.
* Form a relationship with that blogger on the basis of what you have
in common that could serve their community.
* Form a relationship with other commenters in that community.

In other words, comment to give, not to get.

If you get the same amount of love back from comments you make, then
great. If you don't, that's fine too, at least you got a link, and if
you stick to it, you'll get that love elsewhere some other day.

What to look for in a Network Marketing Business

2008-01-23T04:43:00.001-08:00

Network Marketing is also called Multi-Level Marketing or MLM for short. If you happen to be thinking about getting into Network Marketing then this may be helpful for you. There are things to look for in a Network Marketing business that will keep you from just spinning your wheels and getting nowhere. It is true that most Network Marketing businesses fail. That is what happens to most any business in their first five years. But if you know how to do it right, then Network Marketing is the best career in the world!

You should be able to start with little cost. Avoid big sign-up fees and expensive frontloading where you have to spend thousands of dollars to get started, buying your way to the top of a pay plan, having to purchase large volumes to qualify for your check, and having to stock inventory yourself. Run away from anybody requiring you to do those things.

Do not fall for outrageous claims such as making money with no selling. In Network Marketing you can get people placed under you without having to do anything if the people above you are doing a lot of work and your compensation plan is a forced matrix or power leg binary. That kind of thing is called spillover, but you cannot count on getting rich from that. People joining with that expectation will be disappointed. Even worse, do not get involved with a company that is offering a business opportunity but has no product or service to sell other than the opportunity. Always, before you join any company, go to the Internet search engines and check for complaints and scam warnings.

Sales and distribution are the backbone of all business. Direct sales are the type we are more familiar with. The products of a company are peddled by a salesperson that receives a commission, which is a percentage of the money gained by the sale. That is the traditional sales approach. The salesperson can also be paid on an hourly or salaried basis, even per lead contacted as long as they meet a sales quota, but the source of income for business is always sales driven.

Network Marketing is proving to be a better way, both for the companies and their product distributors or salespeople. You are still selling a product or service for the company, but you also are looking for people who want to do what you are doing, selling the company's product and making money doing it. You are building a team. What that does is take sales to another level, because once you get someone else selling for the company, the company has a new distributor and you get paid not only on your sales, but also on the new distributor's sales as well.

That is why it is called Multi-Level Marketing. When that distributor on your first level gets a new seller for the company, you also get paid from the work of that new seller. If that new seller on your second level recruits, then you have a third level. You can have a team building under you, doing sales for you, making money for you, and it can be happening without extra effort on your part! The payment plans in MLM mostly include binary, breakaway, matrix, stair-step, and the best is unilevel.

With the unilevel plan there is no limit to the number of people you can have under you at the first level. The purchases from your first level are where you get the highest commission. Commissions for purchases from your second level on down are not as high percentage-wise, but can add up to a big amount through the shear number of sales. Those earnings are often called leveraged earnings because you have utilized the work and the time of other people. That is the way to get wealthy!

Network Marketing is about the referral and soft sell. You do not have to give people the hard sell to be successful. You simply use the company's product or service and recommend it to others. It helps a great deal if you are passionate about it. The company provides promotional materials such as sales letters, brochures, recruiting calls, recorded messages, websites, flash movie presentations, DVDs, and even magazines. They should be persuasive materials that put forth the benefits of the product or service to the prospect and should include plenty of testimonials.

The company should have a valuable and desired product or service that people would really want to have. Preferably, the product should be unique and manufactured by the company itself. You want the service to be a continuing monthly service or the product to be a consumable one, so that you get recurring purchases every month and an ongoing income from each customer.

With Network Marketing you will not just be making one-time sales as in direct marketing. You will be building a residual income that keeps coming in whether you work or not. It is the perfect way to build a retirement income, so the company you choose should be debt free and have been in business for at least 5 years so that you know it is solid.

Having found those things, you then present the business opportunity and the product to as many people as possible. Your warm market is people you know, such as friends, family, and co-workers. Beyond that, you can advertise, or buy lead lists of people interested in starting a business or interested in your type of product or service.

For Network Marketing the most targeted list you can get are MLM Genealogy Lists. Those are people who have showed an interest in Network Marketing by already having been involved in it. Do an Internet search for MLM Genealogy Lists if you want to buy one. Those lists are not expensive and many of the people on it already have experience building a business. Those are the people you want on your team!

Affiliate Marketing - some thoughts and ideas.

2008-01-23T04:39:00.003-08:00

Affiliate Marketing - what is it?
It is a very simple process where you as the affiliate sell or promote a merchant's product or service for which you will receive a commission . This process is probably the lowest cost business model when starting an Online Business, and as such is the most popular method with many newcomers to Internet Marketing.

This business model exists in many different forms and are commonly called Affiliate Programs. You join the affiliate program that the merchant is operating that is selling the particular product you are interested in promoting. The most common types of programs are as follows:
1 - Pay per click - each visitor you send to the merchant's site will earn you a commission.
2 - Pay per lead - each lead you send to the merchants site will earn you a commission.
3 - Pay per sale - commission will be paid by the merchant for each sale made at his website.
Each one of the above returns a certain payment for delivering the click, lead, or sale. By far the largest number of businesses utilizing this model work on a Pay per Sale system.

Many Internet Marketers will guide the beginner into Affiliate Marketing because it is considered to be the simplest business model to get started and develop. It is also considered to be the cheapest method of starting your Internet Business.

Your prime costs will be in the promotion of the product or service. All costs associated with the product, sales page, delivery, after sales services, as well as merchant services set up and costs, will be to the merchants account.

When starting your Internet Business through affiliate marketing there are five steps to follow:
1 - Find your niche market which shows enough demand as well as a reasonable supply, as well as one that would support future business growth.
2 - Find out what the market is searching for in terms of solutions to problems, or a product/service for which there is a shortage of supply or even a deficiency.
3 - Research the available affiliate products and services for something that will fill the deficiency or fix the problem.
4 - Promote the product by every means available to you.
5 - Although this is not necessarily essential, owning your own website can increase your methods of promotion, but more importantly it allows you to presell the product before redirecting them to the merchants sales page.

The final item regarding your own website needs serious consideration as it will be the way to go to develop and grow your business and to start creating an opt-in list of targeted potential customers.

Creating a trust between you and your customers, as well as your partners, is of prime importance to your business. This trust will serve you well as your customers will gradually consider you to be their expert in this niche and they will take your recommendations and buy. Do not think for one minute that without it you will be able to succeed. Affiliate Marketing, like any other business model, relies entirely upon the trust you painstakingly build over a period of time.

Make Money With PPC Publishing In 5 Easy Steps

2008-01-23T04:38:00.004-08:00

PPC publishing is one of the greatest and easiest way to make money online which involves minimum risk. Let us see how we can go about this simple money making method in 5 easy steps. However you must have the basic knowledge of building a website, using some HTML editor like FrontPage, web hosting services and any good FTP program. These are very simple programs and you can learn about them without much difficulty.

1. Find a Niche.

The first step is to select a niche topic for the website. Niche topic is preferred as it has lesser competition. A niche is a subset of any main topic or subject, for example if 'gardening' is a main topic then 'bonsai' could be a niche. It is desirable that you are already knowledgeable in the niche or at least have great interest in it. This will make your job more enjoyable.

2. Decide a domain name

Search for keywords relevant the niche, starting with some basic keywords and then using some keyword tools like overture, google, keyword discovery or any other keyword tool. Sort out the keywords which have some moderate search volume or at least have some search volume. Placing them on a notepad, remove the spaces between words and have one keyword in a line. Copy the entire list, paste them on an excel sheet, sort it alphabetically. This way it is easier to find and delete duplicate entries. Next open the page in some hosting site like 'Yahoo small business' to check the availability of the domain name (.com) for each keyword, with no spaces between words. If you find a domain name available, check for the number of search result pages in say Google search. If the number of SERPs are around 1-2 million, that is a good candidate for a domain name for us, as it will be easier to optimize the homepage.

3. Build the website.

After registering the domain name, get it hosted and build the homepage, keeping the keyword density of 4-20%. Similarly build 4-5 pages with other relevant keywords. Apply for a PPC publishing if you are not a member already. Place PPC ads at prominent places on the pages like on top, left and bottom portions of the pages. Link all the pages with one-another using a menu. Add contact details and a sitemap. It is important to place PPC ads only on pages where there are some content.

4. Advertise the website

Now the website is ready. It is time get some free traffic to it. Use all known methods to build back links to your website, like submitting in website directories, placing ads, writing and submitting articles, book marking, participating in relevant forums etc. Within 2-3 months you should see the result of your hard work. You can be earning a few dollars daily from this website if your site reaches the first page of search result for the main keyword. You can also add some of your relevant affiliate links to earn more in event of possible sales.

5. Welcome the profits.

Repeat the above steps and build 1-2 new websites every month. In a few months time you will be pleasantly surprised to see the outcome of your efforts. Eventually you may become addicted to building more and more websites and see the profits rolling in.

Ways to Get High CTR, Low CPC and High ROI in PPC Advertising

2008-01-23T04:38:00.001-08:00

Among the traditional methods of advertising, the fastest growing way is internet advertising. PPC advertising is one of the most popular method of internet advertising. It is effective, cost effective, proven and affordable to every pocket. If you are desperate and frustrated with failures using PPC advertising, you must know that every successful marketer has his own share of failures. PPC advertising has the advantage of speed as the result comes almost instantly. It is ideal for generating leads, you can track the performance and can improve the campaigns by tweaking.

If you have a high CTR which is the percentage of clicks with the number of impressions, it will automatically reduce cost per click (CPC) in case of Google Adwords and if you have a good product to offer, you can get a high return on investment (ROI). It is desirable that you have a really good useful product to offer and the landing page is able to generate interest in the product. Normally PPC is used for generating leads and making visitors know about the product. The visitors may return back later to consider your product.

You need to build, customize and manage campaigns, however you must first read about PPC advertising otherwise it can be very expensive. Initially keep your daily budget less than $10. If you do not see any sale for 300 clicks, you must consider some other product. Whether to have large or small list of keywords depends on your objective. Normally you should go for more specific and targeted keywords which are cheaper than broad keywords. More keywords means more traffic, but we do not need just traffic, it has to be a good quality and targeted traffic.

In PPC advertising the first important step is keyword research. You can use any keyword tool like Yahoo's overture, Google, MSN, keyword discovery etc. to get more related keywords. You can even try some keyword spy tools which can show your competitors' keywords and ads. Initially use only searched keywords, not the content feature offered by some PPC programs. Minimize using broad keywords. Use more long tail keywords and 'exact' and 'phrase' match if available. If you are using few keywords- they should be long tailed, targeted, and bid should be such that the ad position comes to 1-4. Use of misspelled keywords can also be tried. If you need really cheap clicks, you can try some PPC like goclick.com who accept bids as low as $0.01. You must use quality ads following the guidelines of the PPC company, to increase

Working From Home -- The Online Business Reality

2008-01-23T04:37:00.000-08:00

According to a recent Harris poll, 72% of American households are thinking about starting a home based business. This is quite frankly a staggering statistic. Almost three quarters of Americans are unsatisfied with their current employment situation for one reason or another. Many of these unsatisfied workers are turning to the Internet to fuel their work from home dream jobs.

Quitting the never ending rat race is a personal decision that many work from home entrepreneurs face. Their reasons for wanting to work from home vary. Some people find that they simply have no other choice but to work out of their home office. Perhaps they have to take care of their elderly parents or their children, or they themselves are house-bound. Some people are retired and find that finally having an opportunity to spend time in their own home is a huge comfort and joy. Even college kids, stay at home spouses, and those recently downsized are finding that the Internet is simply the best option for starting and running a profitable home based business.

Working from home is a serious commitment that all entrepreneurs should consider. However, they must be aware of the negatives and risks of the Internet. The Internet is fraught with get rich quick schemes. It is also overflowing with misleading business building hype and flat out work from home lies. Any program or opportunity that promises big bucks with little work is a fraud. Proper research and common sense should eliminate many frauds and scams. Developing a solid Internet business requires partnerships with strong and professional companies.

Building a real business, no matter what kind of business, requires hard work. That's the bad news. The good news is there has never been a better time to start a business from home because the Internet makes it a low-cost and low-risk venture. Building an online business or work from home business does not require massive amounts of start up capital. With that said, it is possible to over spend on your business simply by neglecting the research.

Learning about web hosting companies and traffic building strategies in the beginning of your work from home business plan is a tremendous positive step. There are many web hosting companies that offer cheap domains and seemingly endless features. The problem many web entrepreneurs face is they invest in the wrong web hosting company at the start up phase of their business. They soon discover that they have not built an online business. They have simply built an online brochure that sits unvisited by the millions of web surfers. Now they must invest more and more money into building a bigger and better site, or paying a firm to optimize their web pages, or paying a search engine to display their ads.

A web business that sits unvisited is not a business at all. Online entrepreneurs know they need an income to be successful. They also realize that building an online business is a series of steps. They must rank well in the search engines by providing excellent content filled web pages. In return for ranking so well, the search engines send droves of targeted customers to the online business. Now that the online business has customers, it can begin to develop a relationship with them. It warms the customer by creating a welcoming and personal feel. All of the great information and the atmosphere of the website will build a trust between the business and its customer. It is this relationship of that leads to profitability.

Forget the long string of classic work at home dead-end jobs like envelope-stuffing and telemarketing. Use the Web to build something terrific that excites you, a business to be proud of, that you own, and that earns you substantial income. Working from home rewards entrepreneurs in so many ways. If you are interested in an online business or a work at home business, you must be smart enough to do the research. You may receive a free step-by-step guide to building your online and work at home business by visiting the author’s website.

Why it’s a BAD Idea to Promote Hot Selling Products on eBay

2008-01-23T04:35:00.000-08:00

The infatuation with hot selling products exists because sellers believe if you target items that have a robust sales pattern, you\\\'ll have a better chance at profiting on eBay. This is both true and false.

Yes... hot selling products can improve your bottom line. But unfortunately by the time the average eBay seller (a) realizes what the hot selling products are, (b) purchases stock to sell on eBay, and (c) actually puts the items up for sale, the demand is already being met by other eBay sellers who probably started the hot selling product trend some time ago.

Not only that, with thousands of people also having access to the same hot selling product lists, you\\\'ll have to contend with other eBay vendors who have the exact same ideas that you do. So you\\\'ll be up against the original sellers who are currently feeding the demand, AND doing the tango with newer sellers who have jumped on the same hot selling product bandwagon that you did.

Okay maybe this won\\\'t happen to you.

But suppose it does.

What if competition becomes so great that prices start dipping below the wholesale cost that you paid for the item? (It happens all the time on eBay.) And what if you lose $100, $200, or even $1,000 on inventory that you thought would be flying off the shelf? Suddenly that hot selling item is looking rather cold sitting in your garage collecting dust.

So if not hot selling products on eBay, then what?

Do what the majority of PowerSellers do. Sell what you want, instead of what\\\'s hot. Repeat after me, \\

What is eBusiness Really?

2008-01-21T22:53:00.000-08:00

Ask the average person what is eBusiness and they will most likely respond with an answer along the lines of eBay, Amazon.Com, NewEgg and so forth. This common association that is made that eBusiness is solely about online sales exchanges is not all there is to it. It is true that the companies that were just put forth are business to consumer electronic commerce sites and along with there counter parts in the business to business sector only make up a small part of what eBusiness is as we define if here at the California State Polytechnic University, Pomona.

The definition of eBusiness plain and simple is electronic business. Electronic business is any business process that uses a digital means versus an analog or manual system. This means the replacement of paper-based, human-agent based or telephone-based personal transaction with transactions over electronic networks. The networks could be proprietary networks, like EDI, or electronic fund transfer networks between companies, or Lotus Notes, or the internal networks embedded in ERP, or could simply just use the internet.

The eBusiness program at Cal Poly Pomona teaches students how to use the tools and information gathered from these networks and modern business process to bridge the gap between the technological and the management sides of business. Our eBusiness students can walk both sides of the line of business operations management. Effectively understanding and implementing modern business technologies such as RFID, EPC Global networking, EDI systems and vertically integrated supply chain systems as well as having the analytical power and management skills to keep it working. Our students are often times the link between the old world styles of management and the new technologies that are changing the way business will be from here on out.

What is the difference between e-commerce and e-business?
E-commerce covers outer-facing processes that touch customers, suppliers and external partners, including sales, marketing, order-taking, delivery, customer service, customer loyalty management, and purchasing of both production inputs and indirect operating expenses. E-business, on the other hand, includes all business processes, both those external-oriented processes included in e-commerce and the more internal processes like production, product development, finance, human resources, information and knowledge management, risk management, workforce management, facilities management, etc.

Areas eBusiness Applies

eBusiness applications can be divided into three categories:

1. Internal Business Systems:
CRM - customer Relationship Management
ERP - Enterprise Resource Planning
Document Management Systems
Human Resources Management
SCM - Supply Chain Management
2. Enterprise Communication and Collaboration
VoIP
Content Management System
eMail
Voice Mail
Web Conferencing

3. Electronic Commerce - Business-to-Business, Business-to-Consumer, Consumer-to-Business, ect.
Retail
Auction
