Social bookmarking has become very important for getting targeted traffic and for getting higher rankings. You simply must have an easy way for your visitors to bookmark your content in all the social networking sites. I find the Addthis button extremely useful for this purpose. The more social bookmarks your content has in these networks, the higher they will rank in the search engines, not to mention all that traffic.

Using WordPress blogs are very beneficial because they are SEO friendly and search engines really like and favor them.

Simple, direct and very effective for getting your message on the web and into the search engines. You must include this social bookmarking/messaging site in your campaign and marketing. You have to make sure you integrate your Tweets into all aspects of your marketing… web content, articles, videos, pdf downloads, etc. … tweet them all.

Understanding One Way Links

Friday, October 22nd, 2010 | Author: Rickbob

one way links

Building one way links can be done the right way or the wrong way. It is certainly one of the most important aspects of website success these days but you really have to know what your doing. You can just hire an SEO company but you really should know what you are talking about or the one way links you may get won’t help and maybe even hurt you.

I will quickly explain why one way links are better and how they can help boost your site in the search engines.

Understanding One Way Links

There are several types of links (aka backlinks) which I will explain below and one way links are the most important of them all for a few reasons.

One Way Links Types

Directory One Way Links: These are standard one way links back to your site from a variety of directories where you can include a combination of title about your site and a short description. These really don’t help help your site much because directories really aren’t niche specific, they are like a phone book helping to point people in the right direction which is why they are called directories. Although they will give you one way link and can directed traffic only 8% of people actually use them to find what they are looking for online. You better of spending you time working on “content one ways links”.

Content One Way Links: These are one way links to your site found within the body of content (articles, blog post, etc.) from what’s called anchor text. Anchor text is simply a keyword that links back to your site. As an example, let’s use the word “Link Building” and create a hyperlink back to the site we want the get traffic to so that people can get more information to help them out. As you can see our anchor text is highlighted and now has a one way link to what ever site you own or promote. These are the best type of one way links because they will come from content that is directly related to your niche, from a site that hopefully has page rank itself that will help your one way links authority.

Social Sharing One Way Links: You can get one way links using social media from sites like Facebook, MySpace and Twitter. These are great because and others can see what you are up to by reading your post. Every time you write a new blog post for example, you can update your status showing what you have done. This will help you become provide your “Brand” and services as an industry resource or expert in you niche.

Social Media One Way Links: This means driving traffic to your site using videos from sites like YouTube. This is a bit different because in most cases you cannot get direct one way links from your Videos. Instead people will have to check out your profile to find your website link. You will not be able to use anchor text on YouTube but the power of driving traffic from your videos is certainly worth mentioning here.

This strategy can include posting of “how to” videos on your related topics and social bookmaking them on sites like like StumbleUpon or De.licio.us.

Bad One Way Links You Should Avoid

Bad Link Building

Now let’s discuss one way links that can really hurt your site. Most people don’t realize these and yet search engines specialist tell us not to do them all the time.

Do Not build one way links from sites that have a low page rank as these are considered to be very low in regards to popularity and search engines will not recognize them. It’s better to a few one way links from high page rank sites then 10,000 from low page rank sites.

Do Not participate in link trading or reciprocal links. I know everyone is doing it these day but the truth is that this can hurt your site. Example: You trade links with a dog training site when your site is related to real estate. These are unrelated niches (Topics) there fore your links are not related and Google won’t recognize them and may even penalize your site because your links are not specific to your niche and there fore are useless to visitors.

Building one way links using a solid strategy can really drive your page rank, so follow these steps and you will see results.

Selecting The Correct Domain

Monday, August 23rd, 2010 | Author: Rickbob

Getting website visitors can be as easy as selecting a domain name. After a few sites and struggling with backlinks and SEO I now have a new website with Zero backlinks earning me $4000 a month, yes you heard me correct ZERO backlinks.

Also this site ranks on the first page of Google and one of those spots is at the top of Google. How can this be? I know, I know I can’t be telling the truth well I am and I will explain how you can do the same.

It all starts with a few key things,

Selecting A Domain

Like most people that are new to web building and online business development, they think if they build a website they will get rich, it’s that easy. NOT! You certainly have to know what your doing and selecting a domain name is one of the most important parts. Also see How Can I Create A Blog.

How you’ll get traffic depends on what people are looking for. What you want to do is find the keyword that is being searched for the most and try to choose one that has low competition. What you looking for is a keyword that is being searched for on the internet via Googles search engine around 5000 searches or more a month. Use the FREE Google Adwords Keyword tool. This tool will also show you how much competition there is for that keyword. See keyword selection.

For example: If your selling pens through your website you will want to find the high volume keyword that people are searching for. “kooky klicker pens” is searched for 1300 times per month so here’s a good start.

When your selecting a domain name make it specific and NOT generic. In this case you will make your domain kookyklickerpens.com. Does this make sense? Obviously if you do not sell kooky klicker pens this would be a bad idea but the process is the same for any product niche that you are in.

Keep in mind that it is always best to go for a .com as all search engines rank this as a universal website.

After Selecting A Domain Pick The Right Web Host

There are so many web hosting companies out there these days how on earth can you select the right one? Well I can make it really easy on you see my web host comparison.

Why is this important?

You will want a professional looking site with email and auto responders. You will want unlimited storage and transfers, anything else you wasting your money.

Some web hosting companies have website builders that you can use for free and as long as the site looks professional it will convert your visitors into sales.

It can really matter if you have one website or a network that has a bunch of sites linked together because you can actually get your web hosting for FREE. Being able to host multiple domain names on your server space is important if your project involves building more than one website.

So you now have the secret formula for getting web traffic and as you will see selecting a domain is very important.

5 Main Tips for Link Building

Friday, May 28th, 2010 | Author: Rickbob

While searching around yesterday I found these great tips that summarize some great link building techniques that I’m sure you will be able to use.

1. Perform A Competitive Intelligence Analysis

Competitive intelligence analysis allows you to scrutinize the competitors’ backlinks and their link profiles. Run a Google search for your target keyword and list the top 20 competitors. Capitalize on the Yahoo! Search Explorer tool to determine the backlinks for each of the top competing websites. Use an Excel spreadsheet to make a list of all the backlinks providing websites. The next step is to shortlist the do follow websites from the list. Arrange them in the descending order of their PR. At the end of this procedure, you will have a list of highly valuable do follow websites to link from.

2. Submit URLs to Search Directories

Search directories are of two types: general and niche directories. Backlinks from niche directories are normally considered more valuable than the backlinks from general directories. Most of the search directories take months to process your linking request. There are some directories which link back within a few days. Websites which build a high number of backlinks in a few days are looked upon suspiciously by Google. The best way to build backlinks is over a period of time to avoid getting tagged as a link spammer. Submittíng a website’s URL to directories is a time consuming task but provides great results at the end.

3. Submit Articles to Article Directories

Submitting articles to article directories is a very popular approach to link building. Most of the article directories allow you to include a link in the article. You can also add a link to the author description of the article with appropriate anchor text. Article directories are known to rank well in the search engine ranking pages. An added benefit of submittíng to article directories is the traffic it drives to your website. There are a large number of high quality article directories which accept free article submission. Simply sign up, verify your account and start submitting articles.

4. Post in Forums

Forums initially served as a means of conversing and solving queries. Today forums are also used to obtain valuable backlinks to your website. A majority of forums allow a signature link at the bottom of every post. This signature link is a do-follow link. You can select the desired anchor text and link to any important inner page of your website. There are a few forums which allow you to enter more than one signature link. Just remember to participate in the conversation, ask questions and answer those of others.

5. Create Link Bait

Link bait involves creating compelling content on the website which makes others link to it. You should write frequently and consistently to develop a following. Keep tab on the latest happenings and news in your niche; be among the first few to break the news online. To create that perfect link bait, your articles should contain news, updates, a controversial topic or even some great resources. Keep the information quotient of your articles high and watch the link baits pouring in.

If you want other websites and blogs to link to you, double check who you are linking too. Don’t be in a rush to get backlinks. A handful of good quality and authoritative backlinks are worth more than a hundred low quality, low PR backlinks.

Can I Really Get 3000 Backlinks Guaranteed? Yes!

Saturday, May 15th, 2010 | Author: Rickbob

Getting 3000 Backlinks

3000 Backlinks

I found a proven method that will get you 3000 backlinks guaranteed for under $60. This is better than any other link building system so far and as I mentioned for only $60.

Link building is that method that allows you to be able to build links to the specific website from other websites. The link popularity is judged based on the amount of back links that the website has from other websites so can you imagine getting 3000 Backlinks. Search engines are always on the lookout for websites that have several best back links to them. The moment the search engines fall in love with your website, it is obvious that it will be pushed up on the ranks and will show up right on top.

For a website to receive preferential treatment in the search engines, it must be able to rank highly in search results pertaining to the most relevant query on that site. The most common way for this to be achieved is to generate relevant backlinks to that site, as Google ranks based on link popularity and 3000 Backlinks will boost your site.

They Have To Be A Good 3000 Backlinks

Lets not forget to mention that not all backlinks are equal. Some carry different weight, some pass on more link juice than others, and some are what we call DoFollow Backlinks, which are referred upon as being the holy grail of link building.

When a site is deeming the links on its page as being no follow links, it is telling the search sites not to think about these links as workable or productive. To paraphrase, any links to your internet site that you place on a no follow website may not be counted as ‘juice’ to raise your sites in the search websites. There is always some kind of value to any backlinks, as in any case, they will refer other visitors on to your website or blog, however when more effort is placed into earning legit backlinks link 300 backlinks from blogs that allow the search engines to crawl and pass page rank to other sites, the results will always be much more noteworthy.

That’s the bare facts about search engines and it’s also why you have to actively push the dofollow backlinks to your site and 3000 backlinks can. So, then begs the question about why some bloggers and webmasters push the NoFollow attribute onto their links. Its quite simple really, as blogs that allow crawling of their links and passing on of page rank are easily discovered by link spammers, and as a precautionary measure, a lot of webmasters will enforce the NoFollow rule to avoid having to clean up link spam day in day out.

3000 backlinks can work for you too

The ones that do wish to assemble a fair quantity of backlinks that may help their site should definitely search dofollow backlinks since they’ll be the sole links of any merit towards their business venture. Once the search site bots come across dofollow backlinks, they’ll report the data back to the search websites. By assembling a large amount of high price backlinks, the search sites will deem your website popular and then boost its rankings appropriately.There are oother traffic sources but they can take a long time to total 3000 backlinks.

Ultimately, this can be the making or breaking point of any great online venture, and the reason why it is undeniable that earning high quality one way DoFollow backlinks is vital to how well your website will rank in the search engines. For this reason alone, it is worthwhile to look into the many services available that will earn you high quality backlinks, and at the same time, packages that contain pre discovered backlinks that you can use to build your backlink structure.

In my situation, I prefer to look into link building packages like 3000 backlinks as to assist me in outsourcing this work, or getting it done much faster myself. By doing this, you can get the best results imaginable, in as little time as possible.

See how you can get your 3000 backlinks guaranteed.
