25 Blog Marketing Tips

With so many blogs being created every day, it’s a mystery to many bloggers how to make their blog stand out. There are many types of blogs or purposes for blogs and a certain number of tactics are applicable to just about all of them.Some companies choose to hire a Blog consultant, but others like to try things internally. For those “DIY” companies and individuals interested in practical tips for marketing and optimizing a business blog, try out the following list of blog marketing and optimization tips:

1. Decide on a stand alone domain name www.myblog.com or directory of existing site www.mysite.com/blog. Sub domain is also an option blog.mysite.com. Avoid hosted services that do not allow you to use your own domain name!
2. Obtain and install customizable blog software - WordPress and Moveable Type are my favorites.
3. Customize blog look and feel templates - aka design.
4. Research keywords and develop a glossary - Keyword Discovery, WordTracker, SitePoint, SEOBook Keyword Research.
5. Optimize the blog:
   • Template optimization - RSS subscription options, social bookmark links, HTML code, Unique title tags, URLs, Sitemap
   • Add helper plugins specific to WordPress or MT
   • Create keyword rich categories (reference your keyword glossary)
6. Enable automatic trackback and ping functionality.
7. Create Feedburner Pro account and enable feed tracking.

17. Request feedback or reviews of your blog in relevant forums, discussion threads. If you have a resourceful post that will help others, point to it.
18. Research and comment on relevant industry related blogs and blogs with significant centers of influence.
19. Post regularly. If it’s a news oriented blog, 3-5 times per day. If it’s an authoritative blog, 3-5 times per week, but each post must be unique and high value.
20. Monitor inbound links, traffic, comments and mentions of your blog - Google Alerts, Technorati, Blogpulse, Yahoo News, Ask Blogs and Feeds.
21. Always respond to comments on your blog and when you detect a mention of your blog on another blog, thank that blogger in the comments of the post.
22. Make contact with related bloggers on AND offline if possible.
23. When making blog posts always cite the source with a link and don’t be afraid to mention popular bloggers by name. Use keywords in the blog post title, in the body of the post and use anchor text when you link to previous posts you’ve made.
24. Use social networking services, forums and discussion threads to connect with other bloggers. If they like your stuff, they will link to you.
25. Remember when web sites were a new concept and the sage advice to print your web address everywhere you print your phone number? The same advice applies for your blog.
    =============
26. If your blog’s goal is to promote you as an authority, interview other prominent bloggers in your industry. Your own credibility will improve by association.
27. Build out your online networks through services such as MyBlogLog, Twitter and Facebook and leverage them to promote particularly useful content on your blog.
28. Once your blog has 1000 or more subscribers, show your Feedburner badge
29. Host images with Flickr making sure to include an anchor text link in the image description back to the post where the image is used.
30. Use your blog to gain press/media credentials at relevant industry conferences and use the event to create content, connections and increase your knowledge.

FREE Classified Advertising Review

Do free classified ads really work? The truth is, sometimes they do and sometimes they do not. Marketing is all about numbers. The more methods you use to advertise the more visitors to your website you will get! Two of the best ways to currently bring traffic to your website is with pay per click search engines such as Overture and Google along with solo ads in ezines.

With that said, free classified ad sites do still work! What is important is that the product or service that you are promoting should be something that the advertiser can benefit from. Remember this, it must be a product or service that advertisers need! What I mean is that many website owners see other ads while searching for their ads to make sure they are being displayed. The trick is to find out what website owners need and your traffic will greatly increase.

So, should you use Free Classified Advertising in your marketing campaign? The answer is Yes! Some advice for using classified ads is to test, test , test. Try a variety of different ads and when you have one that pulls, keep posting it! Once you locate some classified ad sites that work for you keep posting to them regularly, that way your ad stays close to the top. Not everyone will get the same results, it depends on your ad's heading, the quality of your ad and how often you post it.

One of the tricks to free classified advertising is quantity and testing. It is critical to test every ad that you run. And, you may not like this, but you need to submit hundreds of ads every week. That is why it is important to find classified sites that work for you. Once you do, you can then concentrate less on posting ads and more on finding new classified ad sites that produce results for you.

To help make posting your classified ads easier I have found two great tools called AdWizard and TypeItIn. You can use AdWizard to help you post to free classified sites. It will also keep track of when you post. You can use TypeItIn to define buttons that will type in any information you want into any application. Use it to fill out forms on the web, such as the forms found when posting your free classified ads through AdWizard!

Work smart, time is money and marketing your website comes down to numbers.

Getting a Good Start with Link Marketing

Most of us do not have a lot of expendable income starting out so I do not spend much time explaining the options that involve paying large sums of money. In my experience, webmasters with that kind of money contact a company to handle this for them (I have had enough of them as clients to know). I intend on putting out another article to cover this option more in depth, however this article only covers the less costly options.

There are 3 cheap ways to get get some link popularity:

* Ezine articles

* Field related forums

* Banner/Link exchanges

Ezine Articles

Ezines are online magazines. Ezine articles provide two great benefits. First and foremost, they allow you to link to your site from your article or resource area. Also, they provide a chance to show off the knowledge you have in your field. Although this is essentially a free way to get a quality link, it does come with some work. You must be able to write a content rich article on a topic related to your site. Most Ezine sites do not mind giving you the opportuníty to get your name out there but you need to provide them with a well written article that offers something to their users. Searching for ezine databases on any major search engine should provide you with a líst of great sources for this linking method. Be sure to consult the guidelines of an ezine site in which you decide to submit articles.

Related forums

Forums are another great opportuníty to get your site out there without paying up. Again, it does take some time. Find forums that cater to questions about your field. For instance, if you sell natural supplements for joint pain, search for forums related to arthritis. Find strings that are talking about different options for arthritis or ask about what works. This opens a perfect opportuníty to link to your site. It is important to know that most forums are not keen on letting sales pitches post for long. The trick here is to provide quality information on these posts. You could compare your arthritis product to others, you could even provide a plug for a competitor (attempting to prove yourself superior, of course). This makes your post look less like a sales or link pitch and helps make the internet more content driven like it was intended to be.

Banner/Link Exchanges

There are usually two main ways you can get a banner or link on another site without offering any content. You can pay them a fee, or you can propose a trade. Like the other two options, only target sites that are related to you in some way. Exchanges require a little research on your part. You want to search for your potential link partner to see that they are worth the trade. A easy rule of thumb is to check their pagerank compared to yours. You can use this free tool to compare at CheckPageRank.net. Put your web address in and look at your pagerank as well as theirs. If you are paying for a link and they have a pagerank of zero it would be wise to save your money. If you are trading links, use your better judgment. If they have a quality site it may be worth the exchange in hopes that their site takes off and they can share a little of their success with you.

Take note that a link from no single site will boost your website's importance significantly. Every quality link helps a little bit so you need to practice all methods for some time before you see the results you want. Stick with it and be patient.

Search Engine Optimization is Not Always the Answer

Search engine optimization has a purpose. Keyword targeting lets search engines link their users to your website when they look for your keywords. They will not do this satisfactorily without optimizing your site with proper web design techniques. Unfortunately, however, it is more complicated than that. Have you ever wondered why Google will almost always place Ebay on the first few pages when anything is entered into the search field accompanied with the word buy? The word buy has been targeted from more sites than you could count so what makes Ebay special.

For example, take the word bike. If a person uses Google by searching for the string 'buy bike', a page from Ebay will usually be listed before any of the major bicycle makers. It goes without saying that any of the major bicycle dealers have spent a great deal more time targeting keywords related to bikes than a site that manages hundreds of thousands of different products. The answer to this problem is the nature of this article.

Can My Website Compete?

The answer is to increase the importance of your site in the eyes of the major search engines. Ebay gets searched before many other sites because it has been decided by the search engines to be more popular with internet users. So what I am offering the little guy is a way to do what Ebay and the other 'big dogs' have done to become popular.

The world of search engines boil down to the stereotypical high school hierarchy. Search engines pay more attention to those that are popular. In high school, teens usually become popular by having popular people associate with them. The online world is no different. But how do search engines know that popular sites are associating with you? That is an easy one - they link to your website. The three biggest search engine players all crawl the web indexing links to and from all the websites that they have found. They create a ranking system based on many factors, but the most substantial one is how many sites link to you. It could be argued that an optimized site is key, and my opinion expressed here is based on the assumption that your site has been built with proper design techniques. It is also assumed that you have well written content based on your main products or ideas. If you feel that your website does not currently qualify as well written or properly designed, I recommend that you rectify these issues before attempting to build your popularity as it may turn out to be a waste of time.

Do Not Jump Right into Getting Links

There are many tempting ways to get other sites to link to you that are very unsavory. I choose to address these first. These include:

* sites that promote linking as a primary activity.

* sites that have illegal or inappropriate content.

* sites that are entirely unrelated to your target market


Sites that do nothing more than link to other sites may look like a great option but a site without content is not very popular with the search engines. They need to provide something to internet surfers in order to be important. If they are not important to the search engines then a link from them should not be important to you. Link marketing is based on quality links not the amount of links. I advise staying away from these sites all together. Next, it goes without saying, sites with illegal and inappropriate content are never a safe bet.

Web 2.0 Strategy: Why You Should Be a Maven, Not a Marketer

As a website owner, how should you position your message in the Web 2.0 world?

The increasingly savvy buying public will quickly shun marketers. Internet readers want information from the Internet. They don't want advertising, marketing, or a "pitch".

According to Schefren in his Attention Age Doctrine, the solution is to become a social media "Maven".

A Maven is a trusted authority, like a friend, on the social media websites. As you gain their trust, your audience will return to you over and over again wanting to invest in your advice.

Five Steps to Becoming a Social Media Maven

Social Media Maven Step 1: Get in the Game

Begin blogging immediately. Create a video explaining how to solve a problem and put it on YouTube, MySpace, and Facebook with links back to your main website. Just those two things alone will establish more Web 2.0 presence than 90% of your competition.

Social Media Maven Step 2: Share your passion

Build your Web 2.0 website around your passions. Thirty-two year old Gary Vaynerchuk transformed his wine knowledge to his video blog. It now has thousands of subscribers and does $50 millíon dollars a year in wine sales.

Social Media Maven Step 3: Be Controversial

Your audience will remember you more when you challenge the status quo. Controversy sells. Think like the tabloids and the local news channels here. For example, Web 2.0 Business Coach Rich Schefren challenges traditional marketing wisdom in each release of his Attention Age Doctrine special reports at www.attentionage.net/doctrine.

Social Media Maven Step 4: Create World Class Content

You will drive repeat traffic to your website by offering top notch "how to" information. Gary's wine tastings are highly educational on the benefits of wine, how to cook with wine, and how to choose a wine for your special occasion. Rich's reports teach Web 2.0 marketing principles.

Remember, as soon as your audience feels that you are "pitching" them, you've lost them. So provide content not advertising.

Social Media Maven Step 5: Engage in the Conversation

Web 2.0 is a dialogue not a monologue. Internet businesses profít more when they observe and listen to their communities first before they broadcast their messages. Savvy mavens such as Gary and Rich encourage their audience to ask questions. The answers to these questions then become part of their user-generated content.

How Marketing in a Web 2.0 Social Media Environment Is Exciting.

Visualize it like a big radio or television station or movie screen where you're the star. You're building a fan base so you need to entertain, inform, and deliver consistently for your audience.

You have more publishing power at your fingertips right now than at any time in history.

So use it.

Share your passions.

Reveal your trials and tribulations

Web 2.0 The Real Revolution on the Internet

The Web 2.0 social media revolution is in full steam. Are people finding your website?

As an entrepreneur, how do you make your business website stand out amongst 435 million other websites and more than 1 million blogs competing for your audience's attention?

It's not as hard as you might think.

To begin, let's look at the demographics of Web 2.0 social networking sites, Myspace.com, Facebook and YouTube.com. This will give you an idea on how to position your message in the Web 2.0 World.

The Web 2.0 Social Networking Revolution

Web 2.0 is a real revolution on the Internet. And these aren't just college kids...

* 62% of MySpace visitors are older than 25 (40% are 35+), and 83% are makíng over $30,000 a year. Nineteen percent (19%) are makíng $100,000 and up...

* On Facebook.com 46% are over 25 and 34% are 35+, but they've got deep pockets. Eighty-eight percent (88%) makë more than $30,000 and twenty-three percent (23%) makë $100,000 or more.

In the years ahead these numbers will get ridiculous...

* Social media giant Facebook is currently ADDING a million 25+ (non-student) adults per week to their rosters. That's 52 million new users a year.

* YouTube.com gets over 50 million unique visitors per month. That equals over half a billion a year.

* Facebook and MySpace have the equal daily traffic of Google. Experts predict within the next year they will DOUBLE the daily traffic of Google search.

So your prospects are there. The traffic is there. The spending power is there. So NOW is the time you want to establish your presence on the social networking websites.

Start A Social Marketing Campaign

Social marketing is a relatively new, often misunderstood form of online marketing that is reaping huge rewards for website owners who incorporate it into their marketing plans. I work with clients and customers who, while being very new to social marketing, are seeing results in the following areas:

1. Higher search engine rankings for their top keywords.

2. More rankings of additional keywords or "long tail" keyword phrases.

3. More link popularity from sites linking on their own accord.

4. More link popularity from social media sites.

5. More activity on their blogs, such as more commenting and interaction.

6. Direct traffic from incoming links on social media sites (One good StumbleUpon.com submission can net thousands of visitors alone.)

7. Fast traffic increases and steady growth in unique visitors month after month.

8. An increase in subscribers and sales. Social traffic, properly acquired, is very warm to your message and products.

The problem for most people when thinking about social marketing, after getting a taste of all the hundreds of sites there are to interact with, is becoming overwhelmed and paralyzed into inaction.

They assume established social marketers gained their "social authority" in a short period of time. This is simply not true. Although the opportunities for driving serious traffic and rankings from hundreds of social sites exists, it is an embarrassment of riches.

And it cannot be conquered over night. It is a gradual process you manage with all your other responsibilities and grow as time allows.

What I encourage my clients to do is set aside enough time each day to get one more link, participate in one more conversation, or sign up for one more account on a social site.

A little goes a long way and social marketing is not an "all or nothing" situation. Eventually you will have established yourself on the major social media sites you need to be on. And you will have a schedule that allows you to keep up with your other work while adding this extremely powerful marketing method to the mix.

10 Steps For Starting a Social Marketing Campaign

1. Schedule a bit of time each day to do some new things. Don't just say you are going to do them. Write the time into your day and follow through.

2. Sign up for the major social news sites: Digg.com, Propeller.com, Mixx.com. Don't submit anything to these sites until you have filled out your profile completely and submitted news from elsewhere on the web to generate a real presence and avoid being labeled as a spammer.

In fact, BE a real presence and don't try to push your own content onto the networks you belong to. It should feel and be natural and you will know what "natural is on each network by participating, commenting, voting and getting a general sense of what members think is good and bad content. Watch their comments and votes and you will know how to proceed with your own site's content from there.

3. If you don't have a blog, you must install one immediately. This is not an option. It is an absolute necessity on today's web. I recommend Wordpress which can be downloaded and installed by you or your webmaster. Wordpress download

Option #2: Check with your web host to see if they have Fantastico available to you and, if so, that it installs the latest version of Wordpress. If so you are very lucky because the software can be installed by you very easily in just a few steps with Fantastico.

4. Once you have your blog set up, join the following networks. (These are blog communities that will help you generate visitors, authority, and links and most bloggers belong to them.) MyBlogLog.com (install the widget on your Wordpress blog), and BlogCatalog.com. (they also have a widget to install)

5. Join groups, make friends, and interact with other bloggers on these networks. Especially the people who would be most likely to link to your blog and send you traffic who write about similar things or have an audience similar to yours who'd benefit by knowing you. You can even start your own group, promote it in the network, and send "shouts" to the group when you have announcements or need attention to a new post.

6. Once you have established yourself on all the sites above, meaning you have a decent profile in each that shows you've been active and involved, move on and search for networks that are geared toward your particular market niche. There are a lot of new "vertical" social sites popping up that focus on much more narrow markets and their membership is far warmer to your kind of information than on the bigger, more general networks above.

Add a new site to the mix as often as you can and repeat the steps for becoming established there as mentioned in Step 2 above.

7. Join a group dedicated to social marketing to pick up tips from other social marketers and find new places you can sign up with to continue building your social authority. New sites pop up every single day. Follow places like Go2Web20.net to find new opportunities to connect with your market.

8. Remote blog. Join blogger.com and put content there that is good, just not good enough to go on your main blog. This serves two purposes: 1) you get to use more of the great content you find as you travel through all the social news sites and 2) it gives you another place to link back to your main site and pass on traffic and link popularity over time.

9. Track your progress diligently. If something you are trying on a social network isn't working, you need to know that in order to save time and move on to something more fruitful. MyBlogLog.com (above) has a tracking system which will show you where your traffic is coming from so you can avoid time wasting efforts and focus more on the sites that are really pulling in good traffic for you.

10. Don't freak out! This is only overwhelming if you act like someone at an all-you-can-eat buffet with no self control. You have other things to do and this needs to fit into, not dominate, your current business and marketing.

Social marketing, once you've established some authority, will replace some things you are currently doing to promote your site. Many people completely drop their paid advertising or PPC campaigns once they see the organic, natural traffic and search engine rankings pile up from social marketing.

Until then, just take it one step at a time and do some social marketing. A little goes a long way and before you know it, you will reach a point where a lot of traffic and lots of search engine rankings are piling up because you simply started doing something each day.

There's a lot you can learn about social marketing. And not all of it can be found on free blogs.

If you are already familiar with these, great! If not, then you should start becoming more familiar with them! Paid surveys are an excellent way for stay at home moms to earn some extra supplemental income. You can easily earn around $300 per month from paid surveys with very minimal effort. While $300 doesn't sound like a lot, every penny counts. I know that my family and I spend close to $300 per month on groceries. This extra money earned would eliminate that expense.

Paid surveys are easy to find. You can search your favorite search engine for free paid survey sites to join. The more you join, the more you can earn.

#2 - Sell Stuff On eBay

If you think I'm wasting my time telling you about eBay (because it has been around forever), then you might want to read further. eBay is one of the biggest money makers on the internet today. If you've sold on eBay, then you know how to handle it. Never sold on eBay before? Consider cleaning out the house and listing things you need to get rid of. This can help build up your seller reputation.

Now, whether you have sold before or not, consider opening your own eBay store. Sell products that you have an interest in. Buy things in bulk and mark them up when you list your items. Find out what the competition sells the same item for and sell it for less (if you can afford to do so). This is a perfect job for a stay at home mom who has some extra time on her hands.

#3 - Consider Actual Employment From Home

Did you know that work at home jobs are on the rise? Join the club and find a job with a legitimate company doing part-time work, such as telephone customer service, telemarketing, or freelance work. Many of these companies hire tons of people to work from home, as it saves them a lot of money. It allows them to have smaller offices, lowering their overhead, therefore putting more money in their pockets. It's no wonder why they love to hire people to work at home!

Freelance job boards are also an excellent way to earn some income. Find out what you excel at and put your skills to work. You would be surprised at what you can accomplish. Better yet, you might even end up with a thriving business if you are great at what you do and their is a high demand for your skills.You never know what will come of it, unless you try!

Google Money Pro Review

GoogleMoneyPro Review is all about new adwords course written by a Steven Holdaway who makes an average of $120,000 a month and is also recognized as an "adwords qualified individual." So in short, that means he really knows what he is doing.

From the outside, Google Money Pro looked pretty darn good to me as it claimed to show you things such as:

* How To Tell If A Website Will Be Profitable.
* Make Any Website Explode In Sales.
*How To Destroy The Competition While Paying Less.
* The Secret To Getting 20,000 Clicks A Day.
* How To Build Huge Lists Of Relevant Keywords.
* Getting Inexpensive Traffic To Highly Advertised Sites

And so on...

So I picked up a copy of this mammoth Adwords course to see if it was as good as I thought it might be. Here's what I found:

Google Money Pro is a very comprehensive course, and the author really walks through all the steps so that nothing is left out. One thing that I appreciated was that Google Money Pro had plenty of screenshots and examples.

I also liked the fact that Google Money Pro consists of ethical techniques that are the core of a long term successful business. It seems there are a lot of guys out there that try to sell short term cheats, only to have Google change the rules and make their courses obsolete 3 months later.

Google Money Pro can certainly help anyone make a full time income with Google Adwords, and I think that it might be better suited to beginners because of how comprehensive it is.

Making money from Internet businesses are as many and varied as things that are found in the local mall. Personal grooming products and health products are now easily purchased with one's computer. Flowers for special occasions, or home decorating items can be ordered with a click of a mouse. The person with a local store who wants to expand can obtain a web site and join those who make money from online businesses. They can fill online orders quickly, and expand their customer base substantially.

For those persons who want to target a specific market that coincides with their beliefs or philosophy, it is possible to make money from online businesses that reflect those ideals. For instance, there are many kinds of Christian items that can be sold as easily on the Internet as through a store: Bibles, candles, pictures, wall plaques, etc. are items that have a constant customer base. Christian books in several genres are another possibility for items that fit that particular niche. Spreading the word without preaching to people is a gentle way to get people to thinking about their spiritual lives.

When a person has things in her home that are still good, but she has no use for any more, there is an alternative to the old-fashioned garage sale. She can make money through Internet businesses that sell or auction stuff off online. That can be taken a step farther and she can accept items from other people to sell and open her own store. Just as with any other of the ways to make money from Internet businesses, there are rules of conduct and protocols that must be followed to be successful. Records must be kept, items properly packed and insured, and deliveries made promptly to build a reputation of reliability.

How To Make Money Online Secrets

Money-making opportunities that require the user to pay a company a fee in order to make money are rarely good ideas. Investing in a franchise or paying for viable tools to earn an income is realistic, for example, but paying others for a job opportunity is not always successful. In most cases, a company should be paying the skilled person for their expertise rather than vice versa. Opportunities that offer free or very low fees for pre-built business opportunities may also imply that all a person needs to make huge profits from their money making secrets are included within their particular business package. Buyers should beware and always read the fine print as to the extra marketing tools that will need to be purchased in order to make the business successful. This form of hype can cost more and more as the months go on without large returns on the initial investment. Companies that offer these opportunities make money off of the marketing and business tools that are constantly being advertised to their owners.

Although there are many pitfalls and some disappointing information on the World Wide Web as to legitimate potential for making an income, there are many legitimate sources to investigate that can offer ways to earn cash online. Secret ways to make money online are really only secrets to the less informed. In order to find a way to earn cash through Internet methods, research is the first order of business for anyone. Keeping in mind personal talents, expertise, and abilities that can be brought to the table for a business idea are key to matching up with the right online opportunities. For example, those who have really made it in affiliate marketing use content rich sites that exploit an area of expertise that they may possess or wish to knowledgeably target. Systematically building an affiliate site can be monetarily rewarding as the building blocks of information, SEO strategies and solid affiliate programs are added.

Some MLM business opportunities can be viable as well, although MLM ventures should be thoroughly invested before jumping on the bandwagon. For years, MLM schemes have been touted as one of the top money making secrets in both the offline and online world. Many people have made large, yearly incomes from these ventures, but many also have been scammed or disappointed by unsuccessful efforts. Some of the earmarks of a good MLM opportunity will be longevity of business, good reports from longtime owners and a clean financial history for up to 10 years. While many people are anxious to get in on the ground floor of an MLM opportunity, thorough research as to any opportunities' organization, structure, service, support and marketing education is tremendously important. For those who want to find secret ways to make money online, a balance between riding the first wave of a great idea while exerting cautious research is highly recommended. There are many secrets to making money online in today's continually evolving virtual marketplace for anyone who is willing to learn just a little about computers, the Internet and themselves.

2) Show screenshots of your earnings.

You can never claim to be successful without showing your business performance and earnings. Of course your earnings will dictate if you are truly someone that people should learn from.

4) Make your products known online.

You cannot be classified as a true info product creator if what you sell does not create a buzz online. Unless your product is popular, that’s the only time your product appears to be valuable.

These are the basic things that show the internet marketers credibility. The list above can really help you however, it is difficult to get to this point if you are a complete newbie.

It will be unfair if those are the only ways to show someone's credibility.

Get Google Adwords Ads Free !

A new breakthrough secret is all you now need in order to get your Google AdWords pay-per-clicks FREE!

A gentleman from New York discovered what he calls an “oversight” on the part of 99.9% of all marketers that allows him to get otherwise paid-for advertising at Google as well as all other search engines that allow sponsored ads.

And no, nothing about his “secret” is illegal – nor does it require that you know someone on the “inside” at Google, Yahoo, MSN, Overture and others.

Instead, the New Yorker boasts proudly “…this is something that I caught onto just before 2000 when there was so much search engine craze running around, and started doing small just to test things at first … but which I later expanded on after getting the hang of it.”

This same fellow went on to start and operate sixteen separate online companies selling everything from pet food, DVDs, children’s toys & games, books, software, and sold not only his own manufactured products but became an affiliate for other web businesses – all the while applying his mastermind secret.

Over the course of nearly eight years the New Englander confesses “I’ve actually gotten over $87 million in advertising that using my secret I never had to pay for … and the largest share of which was more recently in Google pay-per-clicks as well as other forms of pad advertising at search engines … all of which I got for free …”

So powerful is his secret that he’s able to monopolize any niche online, and can always secure the top premium spots just above the usual organic results featured at most search engines.

He still has to set up an account with the search engines – but after applying his secret he is removed from having to pay for all the costs otherwise involved.
Again, nothing about his secret is either illegal or robs from the search engines.

One spokesperson from one of the most popular search engines said chuckling after being made privy to this amazing secret “Wow! Ha! This is really unique … and in my expert opinion it would only serve to enhance and bring more business to us at [name of search engine withheld for legal & confidentiality reasons] and not cause us to lose business in the slightest. Amazing!”

The northerner revealed that in this nearly eight years’ period of time since applying his secret he’s done well over $300 million in sales revenue with a most diverse line of products, and most recently in the last two years netted nearly $166 million after really “buckling down and pressing my secret to its fullest potential.”

Now to everyone else’s fortune, the city slicker is releasing his secret for getting an unlimited amount of pay-per-click ads to the general public. But he’s not promising any of us for how long.

A bit of an eccentric, the gentleman says “We’ll see just how long I can make it available before it saturates things.”

One famous public web guru pointed out that although this man may gain economically more so as a result of the publication of his secret “he’s already so amazingly rich that whether he continues or discontinues its sale will neither make nor break the man, but not grabbing it for yourself while it’s still available could prove disastrous for you as you may only have one chance, and a very limited one at that, to get this.”

…so you may want to head on over there now and get it.

It’s in a very easily readable format and is quickly and readily understood and mastered by anyone with even a 4th grade reading level.

While you’re there, why not scroll down and review for yourself the huge successes others are now having with this incredible breakthrough in targeted advertising now made freely available to the rest of us?

Search Engine Submission Report

Every day, more and more people turn to Internet search engines to find the products and services they need. As an online business owner, you already understand the importance of your web site's search engine placement. It's becoming more important all the time. More and more, search engine rank is crucial to the success of your online business.

A software program, (known as a "robot", "spider" or "crawler") reads or indexes the web pages, follows links between pages and sites, and collects information stored for later use. The information collected is analyzed into an "index" which is a large database of all the sites the crawler visited and read.

When you search using one of these search engines, you are really searching the index or database. The results produced by the search engine will depend on the contents or website competition in the index. Each page stored in the database directory are ranked based on the contents of each web page, including the title of the page, meta tags, text, images etc.

Altering the information contained in your web pages and site, will cause the entries in the index for your site to change, although this will only happen after the search engine's software has seen and indexed your new content.

Whenever a user searches using a keyword or keyword phrase, the search engine searches through the index to find the word(s) or phrase and returns the matching results. Modifying your web page can make your site more or less relevant in the search results.

Competition of Social Bookmarking Sites

The escalating popularity and competition of different sites has extended the services offered to offer more than just sharing bookmarks, such as rating, the ability to import and export, add notes, reviews, email links, automatic notification, make comments, get feed subscription, web annotation, create groups and social networks.

The main downside to social bookmarking is that it can also be susceptible to corruption and conspiracy. Moreover, due to its popularity, some users have started using it as a vehicle to use along with search engine optimization to enhance their website's visibility. The more a web page is presented and tagged, the bigger would its chances of being found, and spammers have started bookmarking multiple times the same web page and/or each page of their web site using a lot of popular tags, which has forced developers to constantly improve their security systems to effectively filter spam mail and other abuses.

The major distinctive feature of social bookmark applications, however, is the social nature of their use, and currently there is a bias toward increased transparency in these tools, to prevent abuse. Although bookmark collections are personally created and maintained, they are typically visible to others. A number of user interface elements are configured to allow open browsing of the bookmark space.

For example, user names are "clickable" links; clicking on a name reveals the bookmarked collection of that user, and allows a web user to get a full idea of the topics of interest for a particular user, which are also visible to others.
