I’m pretty sure that you know that search engine optimization (SEO) can be very beneficial for your website.

Here are some of the benefits.

1. Your website gets seen as an authority in its field if it ranks highly on Google and the other major search engines. People just assume that Google knows best. Hence you get tons of traffic and clicks.

2. People tend to prefer clicking on organic search engine results rather than those pesky Google advertisements on the side. More clicks = more traffic = more money

3. It’s a long-term strategy that continues to give you free traffic everyday as long as you set it up right.

So now the million dollar question is. How can you go about performing search engine optimization for your website?

Simple, there are basically 2 areas for consideration with regards to SEO. On-page factors and off-page factors. From my experience, on-page factors contribute about 25% to the SEO process while Off-page factors contribute the remaining 75%.

So let’s get started on on-page factors first. These are basically the edits that you can perform on your website. Here are some areas that you can change to improve the on-page factors of your website.

1. Page title
2. Meta Keywords
3. Meta Description
4. Internal link structure

Just Google “SEO onpage” and you will see tons of tutorials on getting your SEO on-page all fixed up nicely.

Now off-page factors are a lot more tricky and time intensive. In a nutshell, having quality, relevant and huge amounts of back links from other authoritative websites help in your off-page factors.

Authority Link Bomb

Now if you intend to spend your time on more productive stuff such as planning your marketing and all that. Then you might want to check out the service called “Authority Link Bomb” that these 2 search engine optimization consultants have came up with.

They have the manpower, know how and resources to basically handle all your off-page SEO needs. And beauty of it all? They’re providing the service at a price that’s absolutely dirt low.

Go take a look.

I have been using My Article Network for a little over a month now, and I have to say I am quite surprised with the results. My initial thoughts were a little sceptical – I actually got burnt by a similar article submission service about 6 months ago – and my sites have never recovered. So I undertook some pretty heavy testing on some new sites to see what benefits there were to be had. This review is going to set the record straight and hopefully answer some of your questions.

How Does It Actually Work?

Firstly I want to explain how the my article network works, and what sets it apaprt from the vague competition in linkvarna and submityourarticle. The network is built upon an immense amount of quality blogs which represent a vast amount of niches. Now I really want to focus on the point of quality. The most certainly do not accept any old blog onto the network – and they favour older blogs which have a decent amount of PR. Also you can get all your blogs on the network and have fresh content posted automatically – this is going to give them a massive lift.

The flip side of this is that you can submit articles into the system and get them ‘spun’and released gradually over time across an amount of blogs on the network which you can specify. The end result is a gradual distribution of your articles, ongoing natural link building, which results in an unfair increase in your search engine rankings.

Tip 1 – Post Only Fresh Articles

Now if you are as excited as I was, after you invest you are going to drag out all those great articles you submitted to ezinearticles.com and pump them into the network. My advice is to re-write them so they start out being as original as possible. The main purpose of the network is the creation and re-invention of original content which can be posted time and time again for more indexing and Google ranking.

Tip 2 – Spin Article Titles, Body Text & Anchor Links

The spin feature of my article network is unlike anything I have ever seen. The makers of my article network have made it simple to create multiple versions of the 1 main article. You can do this via the semi automated process or use the manual spinning feature. This feature is crucial to the success of the system, and is probably the main reason the service I used earlier failed me so miserably.

As an absolute minimum I recommend you re-write the article title the full 10 times and re-write the body at least 150%. To do this you would need to provide about 2 alternate sentences for each sentence in the re-write feature. For an experienced article writer this should take no longer than 30 mins per article. Believe me when I tell you it will be the most worthwhile 30mins you can invest in article creation.

Tip 3 – Control Where Your Articles Get Published!

I think that the creators should have put in an automatic limit to the number of sites to publish to dependent on the number of versions you have created. Sure the articles are only posted on relevant blogs, but you should be in proportion with the number of versions you created – this will give you more bang for your buck as Google will see more unique versions and give you the power for the backlinks. As I discussed in Tip 2 about minimum rewrites – I strongly advise you limit distribution to 15 – 20 sites max. This will keep you free from any potential Google slap.

My Results

I have just found that my new sites are now frequently grabbing top 20 placements on Google for pretty competitive terms. For my less competitive terms I have hit page 1 – give it another month and I am pretty confident I will get top 3 positions.

In Conclusion

My Article Network is going to revolutionise article submission, and is probably over time going to make the larger article directories such as ezinearticles.com and goarticles.com less relevant. This is web2.0 at its most devastating and is the next generation of internet content. I suggest you get on board while it is still new and the price is still low – the more people who join the more likely the price will increase.

Article Writing Assistant

Here’s a nifty online tool that could save you hours of time every day.

It’s something called “Article Writing Assistant” and it’s free. Doesn’t cost anything. What does it do?

It automates big parts of writing articles, and gives you a sort of “template” to go by, via a Q&A format to prompt you along. This way, you can spend more time thinking “What” you’re going to write, rather than “How” you’re going to say it!

Pretty cool.

The following information is shared by a member of the Texas SEO | Dallas Marketing Forum, Maureen Donovan (maureendonovan9).

Microsoft has released a 24-page whitepaper on how their new search engine Bing works and related SEO implications. I would advise webmasters to download the document and read it.

Create an account in the Bing community, then login and go to this page.

To quote directly from the whitepaper, Microsoft’s viewpoint to webmasters experienced with SEO is:

1) “…there’s no need to resubmit your sitemap to Bing if Live Search previously indexed your website and there have been no recent changes on your website.”

2) “…the type of SEO work and tasks webmasters need to perform to be successful in Bing haven’t changed—all of the skills and knowledge that webmasters have invested in previously applies fully today with Bing.”

3) “…SEO is still SEO. Bing doesn’t change that.”

At least we can all do the following on-page SEO to rank well in Bing:

· Target no more than two keywords per page
· Use unique tags on each page
· Use unique description tags on each page
· Use H1 tags
· Use text navigation links
· Create content for your human visitors, not the Bing web crawler
· Incorporate keywords into URL strings

For backinks, they state that they prefer quality to quantity and that “backlinks should be relevant to the page being linked to or relevant to your domain if being linked to the home page.”

Within the webmaster tools, they rate your backlinks from one to five in a little green bar—the higher the green bar the higher the quality of the link in Bing’s eyes. However they don’t actually say whether these backlinks should be anchored or not. I’m guessing that like Google they want anchored backlinks.

Let Your Salesletter Sell.

Posted July 23rd, 2009. Filed under Copywriting

A salesletter shouldn’t be optimized for a certain number of keyword density. If you want search engine traffic, you should be driving it through other means. Don’t water down your salesletter because of this. Your salesletter has ONE PURPOSE—MAKE A FREAK’N SALE!

A regular website’s purpose is to get leads—that’s it! If your website and your salesletter are the same thing, you’d better split them up by registering another domain or you make the home page your landing page and your salesletter on another page.

Don’t waste your time, money and effort on a salesletter that is keyword-rich. Let your sales letter do what it’s suppose to do—sell! That’s why it’s call a salesletter. It’s not a SEO letter.

I have no problem in including keywords into a sales letter, but I don’t want it to be the PRIMARY FOCUS. In fact, I make it a RULE to do keyword research and analysis. This allows me to know what my client’s customers and buyers are looking for in a product. This helps me write a more powerful sales letter. However, it doesn’t mean I chime in on every single keyword phrase because the keyword phrase might not make sense.

Being able to do the research myself, I can analyze it and act accordingly, but my client isn’t responsible for conversion—it’s me. So if they want to include the keyword phrases without my suggestions, then there’s no point in hiring me. It all depends, but as the copywriter, we know what sells and what doesn’t.

So to reiterate: I find it to be very helpful in doing keyword research when writing for a client—especially on a product I am not familiar with. It’s all part of researching the product and the audience to know what their “hot buttons” are. Only when you find them and KNOW them will you then be able to push them. If you can’t find the hot buttons, there’s nothing to push. Salesletter is for sales, not SEO.

Why conflict is your best friend.

Posted July 21st, 2009. Filed under Self Development

I just finished watching a video I think you’ll enjoy.

It’s refreshingly different…and not your typical hyped “Law of Attraction” stuff. Check it out and see how a simple shift in the way you see conflict can change EVERYTHING for you.

“How Can Conflict Get Me My Happy Ending?”

The video comes from Chris Cade, creator of “Inscribe Your Life”. He’s been using story-telling as a path for self-discovery and spiritual growth. His unique approach has changed his life and the lives of those he coaches.

I’ve never seen anyone approach personal development quite like this and I have to say it’s fascinating and exciting. We all love stories! We relish getting lost in Shakespeare’s star-crossed lovers, George Lucas’ galactic battles, or the magic of Harry Potter.

What if we could use story to get ourselves from where we are now to our own storybook ending…the same way these magnificent authors get their heroes to their happy endings?

Chris Cade shows us how.

Because stories work just like life does: they’re only satisfying when our hero encounters and trumps conflict.

Conflict is what makes a hero—what allows him (or her) to discover who he is and what he’s made of. There’s no happy ending without it.

You can use conflict to achieve YOUR storybook ending as well! It’s only when we run away from it that it can defeat us.

By watching the free video you’ll also receive 2 additional bonuses:

* Another inspirational story video (think Chicken Soup for the Soul)

* A leaked chapter from Chris’ new spiritual writing package, “Inscribe Your Life”, about how to overcome your doubts and fears.

Hope you enjoy them!
