SEO Tips 2012 – Google Panda Update – Changes to Implement!

There has been a lot of talk about Google Panda Update so here are some SEO tips for 2012.  While many SEO experts are scratching their head on what needs to be done to get back up with the rankings, these tips below have been tested, and are working for sure.

SEO Tips 2012 – Changes

Reality is, we still need unique content, but we need to write it with the user in mind.  Useful content is a MUST!  But that is not all, your content “on the page” needs to be updated frequently. Squidoo lenses or websites with blogs, or just blogs, are a great way to do this.  It is easy to update your content by writing small blurps! It keeps G happy, and it does not take a lot of effort.

Meta Description – While people for years are saying META does not have effect on SEO, they are right… However, it is invaluable for the click through rate from the Google results page to your webpage.  Google now is watching the % of how many people, who clicked on your webpage link on the results page, actually stay on the page.

“On Page” SEO tips 2012:

Have a very attractive title – this will increase your click through rate as well as keep Google happy!

Have a UNIQUE title – make sure it is not the same as everyone else’s!

Have an attractive meta description – this is basically a promise to the search person that once they click the link, they will get what they are searching for. So keep in mind, if you do this, what you promise, after click through, you HAVE to give them what you promised. The description is the text that is being shown below your website title, in the search results. Please read further to clarify this point.

 

 

“Off Page” SEO Tips 2012

If you are targeting any geographical area, this is not a big deal, but if you are targeting UK for example, getting many links from that geographical area is so important.  So if you are located in the UK, you want as many UK and Europe backlinks as possible – best case scenario it would be the majority of the links you are getting.  Not all, but majority.

Web 2.0 properties are still very important.  You always want other sites to mention your site.  So raw linking as well as anchored text, with short snippets of keyword variations.

And if you don’t have a Google account yet, now is the time to get one.  Why? Google is keeping an eye on social networks (their own to be more exact) from Google plus, Google shares.

CLICK THROUGH rate – so important.  This actually plays a HUGE role in your rankings.  So if you don’t have analytics tool installed on your site, you better get it ASAP.

Lower your bounce off rate as much as possible.  Now Google is tracking new users, new visitors.  So the more returning users you have, the higher quality of the site, the higher your ranking.  Remember, earlier we mentioned how important unique content is?  Well not only does your content need to be unique, but it needs to provide quality to the visitor. Google is tracking average time on the website, and average time on the page!  The longer they stay, the better it is.

Do you know why Google did the Google Panda Update? Simple – so they can find spam content, knock it down, so they can provide better search results.  Basically, if you are going to rank on the first page of Google, your site needs to be quality. Period!

So let’s recap before we move further:

Your site needs to be quality. PERIOD!  It also needs to provide “promised” information, and your visitors probably want to stay on the page.  This is the reason for the Google Panda Update – to be as accurate with the search results as possible – and to get that info, Google is now looking at everything.

DO not have duplicate content on your site.  Make sure your site is 100% unique.

While you meta tags might be NOT important for SEO, they are important for Google search results, and the actual searcher.  If your Title is “attractive” and your meta description promises to give them what they are searching for, you will get a click through, and if your BOUNCE off rate is lowered, you will start climbing higher.

And vice versa – with a high bounce off rate, Google will drop your results.

Just to give you an example:

High BOUNCE off rate will probably happen if for example: your site is in health niche, your title and meta promise to deliver a guide to 6 pack abs, and a visitor who comes onto the page, gets a 6 day diet plan.

Now, let’s move on to the link building!

Write articles that send traffic to your site.  While many people concentrate on SEO and link building for their main site, a good article can do wonders for your site in terms of SEO and direct traffic.

Again, as before, stay with unique content.  Hire a professional article writer if you are not good at writing them yourself.  Spend time on keyword research.  Do this as you would with your own site.  It is that important! Social media is playing a HUGE roll!

Now, you should build some links pointing to your main site.  But you should build many pointing to those articles as well.   Articles will pass on the link juice onto your site, as well as drive traffic to your site.

You also need to have a very good link building strategy. Don’t just throw a bunch of links at your site, have a combination of them all.

Let’s say, your site is brand new.  Do you want to send a bunch of blog comments to the site?  Of course not, you probably want to send few press releases out first.

Write 6-7 articles on different sites such as Ezine, Squidoo, Hubpages and so on.  You will get some traffic to them.  And Google will start noticing your site very soon.

Now social bookmark your site, and add it slowly to some directories.  (You see, you are slowly building the links, and you are under the radar for Google Sandbox).  Now, social bookmark your articles, one by one. Remember this!  If you article is USER friendly, it will get passed around on it’s own.

(You see, now you are getting your articles to be noticed more on Google – your site is starting to get popular!), now build more links to your articles, so they drive traffic to your site, as they will rank higher. But you see, even though you are not linking directly to your site, you are getting link juice from the articles.

Now, you can go ahead and write a blog post on your site.  Remember how we talked about your site staying updated?    Well you just did it, you created a new post.  Now, build links to that page, and send some links to the main index page.  DO NOT build links ONLY to the main page.  Do a mixture.  Some to the Index, some to blog posts, and some to articles pointing to your site.

One more thing that Google is paying close attention to these days is the anchor text.  If they see that your site is getting a variety of anchored text phrases, you are ok.  BUT if the site is getting every time, the exact anchored text, your site will be penalized eventually. This did work for a long long time, but with the recent updates, you really need to be variating your anchor text.

Have a combination of “click here for ANCHORED Text” – “Get more Info Anchored Text”, etc.

An example “Need Affordable Link Building Service? CLICK  Here- or ” Get HIGH  PR Link Building Service at Low Prices

This is probably one of the biggest changes.   It use to be, that if you wanted to rank for a certain keyword phrase, you would build an anchored text from many different sites, pointing to your page with an exact keyword anchored text.  NOW, don’t do that.  Mix of those works the best…

Another thing to keep in mind.  Build less links to the Index page an build more to the deep pages.

Be consistent with link building.   Do not throw 1000’s of links one day, and zero for the next 29 days, then again 1000.  Spread them evenly. SLOW link building is better… Consistent is better! Even with Google Panda Update, if you got knocked down for ranking, if you stop building links now, you will hurt your rankings even more.  Continue your link building, but add in more content promotion.

What is the good number of links to build per month?  You can increase your link building gradually, but pay attention to the site visitors.  At first a site gets 10-15 visitors daily, then 40-50, and that is how you should increase your link building.  Based on the sites popularity!

Do a mixture of do follow and no follow links!

One more thing:  How do you know you are penalized?  Here are some rules:

  • If you are unranked – (keep in mind, new site is always unranked)
  • Page rank goes down from index.  For example, you were on the 1st page, and now you are on the 30th. Keep in mind this can ALSO be a Google dance and the site will get back to good rankings eventually.
  • If your page rank is set to 0 (however, if the site is new, this may not be the case).
  • Searching for your exact URL in Google, if you are NOT showing as #1, you are penalized,
  • Search for your exact title.  If your title is unique, you should show up in the top 50 pages.

Reality is, 1 of those things can take you down or all of them.  YOU have to work on all of those.  Your site is the money maker.  And your site needs work to be a very good money maker. There is no more “set and forget”.  Think of it this way.  You can have the best site in the world, but if you don’t promote it, no one will see it.

This is as simple as it gets.  If your site is NOT user friendly, your rankings will hurt no matter how many links you build!

Build pages that are user friendly and useful – pages that people need to read, pages that will pass on either buyers or traffic, and you will rank. When we say user friendly, take a look at this post for example.  It is useful, right? ;-)

Oh, and one last thing.  We are doing some case studies, and we will be sharing the results soon.

So if you are located in the UK, you want UK and Europe to be majority of the links you are getting.  Not all, but majority.

Google Panda Update – How to Make Your Site “Update-Resistant” and What Backlinks Have to Do With It

Hi all,

Me and Ivana, we have received an email from one of our customers a couple of days ago telling their sites dropped in rankings after the Google Panda update. I`m sure you`ve heard of the recent algorithm changes many times already, but I wanted to share our thoughts and advice about how to get your sites rank even higher after the recent changes.

As we all know, Google is all about providing the best search user experience. So there is no surprise they are changing and updating their algorithm on a daily basis. Some updates are minimal, some are major ones, just like the recent Panda update that everyone is talking about.

Is Google always right? Interesting case study

Ok, before I proceed with the ranking factors and advice on keeping the rankings high and increasing them, I want to show you this:

I just accidentally stumbled across this today: when searching for “make money online” (VERY competitive keyword) on Google, see what I get as the #10 result (screenshot taken April 14th, 2012, after the Google Panda update):

Google Results after Panda update

Nothing truly shocking until I actually go visit that page and see this:

Google Panda update case study

Hmmmm… Wait….

WHAT?!?!  :-O

Ok. This reminds me again that no algorithm, Google or any other, will EVER be accurate enough :-)

Just out of curiosity, I go to SemRush and see what it shows for backlinks for this page (not accurate but still something), and where they`re coming from (click to see enlarged):

Google Panda update backlinks

There are many many more examples like this.

Ranking Factor #1:

Here`s a short excerpt from Wikipedia about the Google Panda update:

“Google Panda was built through an algorithm update that used artificial intelligence in a more sophisticated and scalable way than previously possible. Human quality testers rated thousands of websites based on measures of quality, including design, trustworthiness, speed and whether or not they would return to the website.”

There is more info about the topic, but the main point is very clear: Google, trying to provide the best search user experience, will ALWAYS focus on high quality websites first.

We have some customers that are using our backlinking services for pages of theirs that are obviously poor in quality: they either have too much advertisement and too little content, or the content is not original (auto-generated), or the website is “too slim” (a couple of pages on the website). We always advice them to make the necessary changes and improve the quality of their sites – otherwise, building backlinks is a total waste of their time and money.

Ranking Factor #2:

You can have the best website in the world, but if it is not ranking high on the search engines, and no one is visiting it, you are not going anywhere.

To rank a page well on Google, you need backlinks (obviously).

But wait! Isn`t the Google Panda all about identifying the “footprints” in backlinking and taking these sites down?

Calm down, if it was that easy, we would have our competition killed in days :)

Whenever we say “building backlinks”, we mean two things:

1) your backlinking strategy

2) the backlinks themselves

Just to remind you shortly, Google counts and weights the backlinks not without a reason. Backlinks work like “votes” for your pages – if another webpage links to your webpage – it`s like a vote, and the more webpages linking to yours there are, the more votes your webpage has. This means a lot to Google, and that`s why they are counting the backlinks and treat them as an important valuable in the algorithm. And Google wants these backlinks to be “real”! This is why they don`t like footprints, and that`s the main reason you should have a backlinking strategy, to diversify your backlink sources and not to leave a footprint!

See, if you build 100 backlinks each month, all coming from the same domains, and do that for 11 months straight – how difficult do you think it would be for Google to “think” it`s not a natural link building?

Backlinking advice

This has been said many times before, but I`ll say that again:

1) You need backlinks to come from many different sources.

2) Your pages need to get backlinks on a regular basis, to look natural.

Building backlinks for a few months, having them posted on the same domains, is OK, but as said above, if you build 100 backlinks each month, all coming from the same domains, and do that for 11 months straight – this leaves a footprint. You need to diversify, you need to do all it takes to make it look natural.

Most of our customers are changing their backlinks packages every few months, and they are having NO PROBLEM ranking their sites, and the most recent updates in Google algorithm have NO negative effect because of this.

What you need to do

If you are now building the links on a regular basis, and say it`s month #4 with our backlinks package #4 (Complete SEO. You can find them all here: http://linkdominators.com/orderpage.html). You need to switch to another package, stay with it for a couple of  months, then switch back again, or select another package. You need to be different, your sites need to look different from month to month, you cannot have the same types of links coming for months and expect the best result.

That`s exactly what we do for our sites, and that`s what many of our customers do. There`s no magic in this, you just need to keep changing the sources of links.

To help our customers’ sites stay “Google-update-proof”, we are making our new Combo Package available for public. Best time to start with it is right now, because we are allowing a limited number of customers for it, and the price will be increased soon.

As always, please ask any questions you may have, in the comments section of this post. Thanks, and see you at the top of Google! :)

We bet this is going to be the shortest post ever :-) We finally have enough time for facebook as well.  Here is a link to our profile – Ivana will run it, so feel free to add us as friends. ;)

Opinion On Link Dominators – Real Customer Testimonials

The purpose for this blog post is kind of unusual but really well thought.

You see, our customers are really happy with our services, they gladly contact us with questions, and read our blog and emails for advice. Most of them we know by name, so when our potential customers want to know our real customers` feedback, we just email them to ask for a testimonial. And until today, we did not have ONE place to put all of their feedback and testimonials (what a shame!!!).

So we thought,

- why not help YOU, our dear customer, to say how happy you are with our services, in an easy and more convenient way,

AND at the same time

- help US to save time while hunting for some feedback for our potential customers,

AND

- help our potential CUSTOMERS to be confident that what they will get from us, is a lot more than we advertise!

If you think that`s a good idea, we would LOVE you to leave your feedback below!

You can be as detailed as you want to LOL ;)

Which Package To Choose: Advice For Our Customers And Future Customers

We get people asking these questions by emails pretty often. So I decided to dedicate a post on our blog explaining which package we suggest to choose when, what to do if you need backlinks for a new site, what types of backlinks you can start with, what to change them to later on, and such. So if you are not completely sure which package of backlinks to choose, this should explain it all.

First thing we ask our customers when they come to us asking for help with the package selection, is “what has been done previously with your site in regards to backlinks”?

Scenario#1: new website or no serious backlinking done

Most often their site is new or nothing serious has been done previously – no backlinks, or some backlinks with no real strategy.

In this scenario, we suggest to build backlinks in the following way (and I`ll explain why right after listing the order:)

1) Press Release submission package

2) Complete SEO package

3) Regular package

4) Press Release submission package

5) Regular package

Here is why this is effective (if on-page SEO is done of course!):

1) When you have a press release submitted, you start getting syndications and backlinks from all over the web, and the number of them is growing on a regular basis – without doing anything additionally (that`s just how press releases work, read more about it here).

Your site is starting to get backlinks, it`s starting to get attention in the eyes of the search engines. All happening naturally, various websites and thousands of blogs on the Internet are starting to speak about your site, linking to it with your keywords as an anchor text.

2) Then, your site is being submitted to directories (which is part of the Complete SEO package), fresh content starts to appear on Web 2.0 properties and article directories, all linking to your site – the attention YOUR website is getting, is steadily increasing, making your site look more and more popular.

3) At that same time, your links appear on dozens and hundreds of forum profiles, people start commenting on blogs and bookmarking your site – all of that voting for your site – all of that increasing your site`s importance.

High PR profile links and blog comments keep on showing up, the number of these backlinks is being catched up by the search engines every day – your site is getting popular!

4) Now, another press release is being submitted, letting other hundreds and thousands of blogs and websites to syndicate your content – all with YOUR links included.

5) You keep on increasing attention by adding another batch of high PR profile links, blog comments, RSS submissions and social bookmarking links.

During this time (4-5 months), your site should climb up in the search engines results. You add more backlinks to beat the competition until your keywords reach the desired position.

Scenario #2: Older site, backlinks are being built, but no serious movement

This is very frequent. First, we always suggest to improve the on-page SEO. It is almost ALWAYS that there is something missing.

Please make sure you have your site optimized very well:

- Keyword in the title, description and meta keywords, URL too if possible

- Keyword in H1, H2, H3

- Image on the page with the keyword as and ALT text

- Keyword in the first and the last 100 words

- Similar keywords used (you can find them by doing a search on Google for your main keyword, scrolling down to the bottom of the results page – and there Google shows a few related ones)

You need to add more fresh, unique content to your page (that`s extremely important after the Google algorithm update!).

Now, to start moving the site, steps of the scenario #1 should be done, just that you might need more backlinks to get the rankings moving. One of the most important parts in this scenario #2, is that AFTER you get the site optimized and more fresh content on it, you need to let Google know it needs to re-evaluate your rankings. And of course, to re-evaluate, it will need to have the newest copy of your site – re-cache it.

To get the site recached, a good idea is to have it pinged and social bookmarked at 100-200 social bookmarking sites over a period of several days. Do not freak out if your site is not yet re-cached in a week or so – many times it can take two weeks or even more. Google is not as fast as we would like it to be sometimes :)

Conclusion

Please keep in mind all of the above goes hand in hand with the on-page optimization, and great content on your site (especially after the latest Google algorithm update, which is all about sharing great content on your web property).

When you have your site well on-page optimized, and you share great content (which is exactly what Google is looking for – to provide its searchers the best search experience), a good backlinking strategy will do the job!

Say us what you think!

All the very best,

Alex and Ivana

 

Easy Way to Monetize Your Blog Traffic

We are about to share with you something so simple you will be surprised.  :) and this is probably one of the easiest ways to monetize your blog traffic.

If you are using WordPress as your blog platform, this will work.  You see the banner above? Here is a screenshot of it:

Would you believe that CTR of that banner is around 17%?  Well we know that seems high, but here is the proof :-)

We know that often we spend a lot of money on the next best thing, but we (Alex and I) have learned that some of the best things are actually free :-)

The banners we created ourselves.  The design is simple and to the point.  It stands out on almost every WordPress theme.  For our affiliates we have created many more banners just like these two (if you want to see them, here is the link to LinkDominators affiliate program).   Further more, the plugin we used, it also is free :)Max Banner Ads. It is really easy to set it up and use, and the best thing is that you have the tracking in place – so you see how well your banners convert, and can just drop those that do not perform well.

You know that most banners have CTR 1%-3% so having almost 20% really makes us happy. I hope you will use this advice and convert more of your visitors into buyers – we really wish you to!

 

 

Effective Email Marketing – Make $500-10,000 with This Simple List Building Strategy

The fact is people are struggling with IM and online business so this post will be about making you some money ;-) . You know that we are also very big on list building, but most people ignore this important step so here is a very effective email marketing strategy that can print you money on demand.

The fact is – you have to capture those leads that come to your site.  It is a MUST!

Please listen to this strategy before you run away because it can really help you get a regular income and overall you do not have to work more than a couple of hours to maintain it (of course this is after you set it up ;-) ).

We often hear of people saying – if I could just make $500 extra from this business, it would really really help me.  And we will show you how to do exactly that (and probably more), so listen up.

This can be done in any industry.  Money saving tips, weight loss, IM and so on. The investments you need are a few:  Hosting, Domain Name and of course email auto responder such as Aweber.

The opt in should be for something people really can use.  So do give away something of a great value.  If in weight loss industry, give them a really cool diet plan… something people would pay money to get.   In IM industry it can be a training of some kind, in money saving tips, it could be secret strategies to cut the cost or pay off debt faster, and so on.  But what ever it is, make sure you do give them quality info.

The goal is to build a large list, but it does not happen over night!

So you will need to:

  1. Write a powerful guide – must be something of a great value
  2. Set up a squeeze page – make it so juicy that you would personally want to subscribe!
  3. Set up your Thank You page – on this page you can give bonuses, sell ad space,
  4. Set up a One time offer – this is your “success” page on Aweber list settings (meaning, that the real free guide is emailed to them)
  5. Add privacy and disclaimer statement
  6. Set up email auto responder and you are ready to go. Add your thank you as a redirect on your web form – that is, they would see your Thank You page right after filling in their name and email address, and your success page will be one time offer)

Some helpful resources for those are:  niche marketing camp (formerly owned by us) as well as our free list building guide, HOWEVER, we will explain in details what you need for this strategy to work.

But first, if you build a list you have many benefits.  You can set up a one time offer and sell a product at 50% off.  This page can easily convert at 5-10% because the discount is huge.   It is better if you can make this offer to be a recurring membership.

Second, as you build the list, you can send your subscribers regular emails and 4 times a month sell an ad space to other IMer’s for $100 for 200 clicks.  That means right there you can get $400 bucks from your list.  And if you mail your list 2 times only, you can easily make affiliate sales, your own product sales and of course ad space revenue.

Yes, I know, in order to get to that you need to build the list first.  So how to do it?  Here is how:

In order for this to work, you will need to drive at least 10000 people to your site… Out of those 10000 you should get approximately 3000-4000 subscriber list.   That is if your squeeze page converts at 50% and considering that some people will never confirm their subscription.

With a list of 3000 people, you can easily get 200 clicks on your email message, making you $400 per month if you sell 1 ad per week.  Those clicks are better than Google ads and people are often willing to pay even more for list clicks.  Keep that in mind.

Of course when starting, the biggest obstacle is the traffic. In our massive traffic report we give you 14 different traffic strategies.  You either have to spend the money on it, OR you have to spend your time on it.  If you spend the money, that means paying or ad space such as Google ads and banner exchanges.  Or you can write lots of articles driving traffic to your site, and you can spend time in the forums where people are interested in what you have to offer.

Most people will choose the second option – articles.

If that is the case, then select some very low competition keywords for your articles.

First, make sure they don’t have more than 5000-10000 competing pages.

Second, keep in mind other products when selecting your articles.  This is a little twist and can drive you a lot of good traffic.  Let’s say you are promoting xyz diet.  For a popular diet, people do type in things such as “review of xyz diet”.  If those keywords do not have lots of competition, use them and in your article do a detailed review of that product, but saying, “however, this site is giving you a free guide on the same tips that xyz diet advertises”.  If they had to spend the money on the first, they will gladly sign up for the free guide.

Side note: Once you start getting regular traffic and sign ups, you can do traffic exchanges with other list builders who offer similar service or a guide as yourself, by placing an ad on their thank you page and they place an ad on your thank you page.

Now your goal is to set up 100 of those articles and you can post them on sites such as ezinearticles, usfreeads, goarticles, squidoo and so forth.  Give these articles you submitted a little link boosting (you can outsource to link building service) so they rank faster and don’t forget to do on page optimization for them.  If you are not good at writing articles, outsource the task to sites such as thecontentauthority.com.

Where do you find ad partners?  Well here are two sites to get started with:  http://warriorforum.com and http://www.safe-swaps.com/

Also, don’t forget to go with recurring memberships… This will eventually make you work less and earn more.  This will eventually create a steady flow of income.

We are not going to say this is easy… There is nothing easy about online business, BUT this is steady, it is the right and effective email marketing strategy which can easily create unlimited income for you and if you play it smart with recurring income, you can create truckloads of money :) !

FAQ on SEO and Link Building Service

We get many different questions from many of our customers. Some are concerns, and often people are just not aware how things work out. So here are some of those FAQ and responses.  We hope they help ;-) and answer some questions about our link building service and SEO in general.

So here we go!

Q: Hey Ivana and Alex, you built links for me 2 weeks ago and since then, my page keeps on changing rank almost daily.  What is going on?

A: That is called a “Google dance”, and in most cases it settles in 20-30 days and you get newly established rank.

Q: My page is not on the 1st page of Google yet – why is that?

A: Know that we really cannot guarantee the rank because it just does not depend on us, what we do guarantee is the links we build for you.  The thing is your page will move up, but – if you submit to us a generic keywords such as “weight loss”, we can build the links, but we cannot guarantee the rank, because that keyword phrase needs A LOT of SEO effort to rank, and many, many, many backlinks.

Q: How fast will I see results?

A: It can take up to 2 weeks to start seeing changes.  Sometimes it is instant, but sometimes it takes a little while. However, talking about the first page rankings, SEO is a slow game, and for many mid-competition keywords, it takes 2-3 or a few more months to get them to the first page.

Q: What is the PR (page rank) of the links that your link building service provides?

A: Profile links are posted on sites with 3-10 PR and the PR is passed onto your site.  However, in the mixture we do throw in no follow links as well, because this makes link building look more natural.

Q: I thought you would build hundreds of backlinks for me, but I only see 3 links on Google!

A: We do build hundreds of backlinks, and they ALL count, the reason you do not see them on Google is… read this post, we explain all of it.

Q: Can I change URL’s and Keywords each month?

A: Yes you can. Of course, if you rank for something, you probably can take a break from building links for that site, but keep checking the rank, in case it drops, you probably need to do another link boost. You can check the rank with free tool from SEO book.

There are two problems we often see:  one is that site owners have not done keyword research right, second is that they have not optimized their pages for their keyword.  We can build the links, but if you do not do your part, you are wasting your money and your time.  It takes about 15 minutes to do on page optimization, and it can take 1 hour to do proper keyword research… Spend that time, and then hire us.  We want you to rank. We want you to spend your money wisely. :-) Our – Ivana is Upset post gives you the most common mistakes people make.

Having said all of this, please make sure you do not rely only on the SEO traffic for your sites… You do not have full control over it, and if the traffic stops, you will lose the income and the value of the site.  Having multiple streams of traffic that leads to your site is very important. We currently have 4 different sources and are working on adding 5th source.  As you know we have written massive traffic report (detailed guide on 14 different traffic methods), which we offer as a bonus with our link building packages.

If you are one of the people who have a question on link building service that we offer, or just have any questions in regards to SEO, feel free to ask, we will do our best to answer it and maybe even create a full post on our blog. Of course free of charge ;-)

Did You Hear? – New Free RSS Feed Generator?

Just giving you a little bit of heads up here.   We have mailed our email subscribers a link to free RSS feed generator! We just want to make sure you know about it as well.

PS. Oh, you ARE allowed to share this with your friends ;)

Ivana is REALLY Upset with YOU!

Hi there… Yeah… Ivana is here and I’ve got to say, I am REALLY… MAD!!! Steam is coming out of my ears… And the reason you wonder?  Because 90% of you are wasting money on your link building efforts!  You are making HUGE SEO MISTAKES! I wish sometimes I could yell at you :)   ha ha… but instead I will spend a bit of my time and go over the most common mistakes we see!

KEYWORDS too BROAD!

Yes, try to rank for “coffee” or “diaper” or “tire” or anything along those lines WILL NOT MAKE YOU ANY MONEY!  You will probably not rank for it either, and again, even if you did, what is the point… it is too broad!

Sites NOT optimized!

What you should do is AT LEAST add your main keyword phrase into your URL.  Yeah, having it in the URL makes a huge difference! It is the basics of on page optimization.  If you just spend the extra 10 min to optimize your pages, you are going to succeed online. AND – you will need way less backlinks to rank well! These 10 minutes SAVE YOU MONEY!

LINKS Broken!

Yes, there is a way to shorten your links by doing this, but most of the times this is NOT the case.

The little % sign actually means you have left a space there!  DO NOT DO THAT, do it like this instead:

http://domain.com/keyword-Phrase

Text in the Graphics?  COME ON!

Crawling spiders cannot read the text that is in the graphics (unless you optimize the graphics for it)… Add the text, use “alt” for each image, to let the search engines know what you want to rank for!  It is a lot easier :)

Make an attractive title!

One last thing!  If you are trying to rank for example for “Link Dominators”  and that is what the link dominators title said, there is a HUGE chance no body would click on it even if you were on the very first result!  HOWEVER, if you make your title sound interesting such as “Current Discount on Link Dominators Service”, I bet more people would click on it!

So here is what you need to do!  DO your keyword research.  DO it well!  Add the keyword phrase in:

TITLE (make sure your keyword phrase is included in your title)

URL (make sure your keyword phrase is in your url)

Add your keyword phrase in the first and the last paragraph of your text (and throughout the text)

Get the keyword density right (make sure it is between 1-3%)

Ta da!!!  You have optimized it!  That is NOT too hard! These things are basic and they will get you up there!

And the very last thing… Now that I got this out of me I feel calm :) !  I hope you will listen to my advice because we have a customer James C.!  He actually is a member who has the  60 URL package,  and recently I checked his rankings!  He is in Google on the #1st page for a keyword phrase that has over 11 600 000 results!  (without quotes!!!) Now, you may wonder how he did this?  Simple, he is doing the steps that are outlined above and he is consistent with his link building!  That is it, nothing more!

We see people who give up after the very first week.  SEO takes time.  James has been with us for over 5 months now, and he listens when we offer him advice.  He recently sent this message to us: “Thanks Alex. You guys are a big help to my family and I”. This has brought tears to my eyes… Because we have managed to help someone with their business and it is helping to feed his family.

We really want to help you too… But you have to take action! Stop making those mistakes PLEASE!!! Because just 10-15 minutes spent on optimization can make all the difference!

Thank you all,

Ivana
