How To Drive Hoards Of Visitors To Your Site …In Less Than 20 Minutes A Day

This article will discuss a technique you can use to gain some long term, and very quick traffic.

You don’t have to pay for this traffic, yet it is still high quality.

Also, you can spend as little as 20 minutes a day on this (and enjoy yourself), yet still ‘out do’ other traffic building methods.

This is about joining in with conversations in your niche – aka ‘blog commenting’ – although, I dislike the second term, as it conjures up the image of spamming everything in site with automated software.

Of course this little guide is not about that, and I don’t recommend it either.

What we want to do here is set up a little alert system to let us know when someone has written a blog post (or web page with commenting enabled) that discusses something specific.

The idea here is to jump into the conversation and leave a helpful comment. You can then link back to your site, as most comment forms enable this.

For SEO purposes, you can try and leave your chosen keyword as your name, so it becomes an anchortext link pointing to your site, which obviously is great for your SERPS. However, think first before doing this, as sometimes blog owners will delete your comment, considering it spam.

So,
it’s better to simply leave your name. Surprisingly, you still get a fair amount of clicks, as people admire those who are helpful and knowledgeable. The blog visitors are far more likely to click through in this case.

Tip: If you’re being extra helpful, you can sometimes link back to your site within the actual comment itself, although again, be careful, and see it the blog owner usually lets people do this before you try.

Also, if you leave a link in the comment, I’d advise against using html to create an anchortext link. Some blogs have html turned off in the comments, so all you’ll end up with is garbled html as a comment.

No point in spending time writing a comment just to get it deleted…

Okay, back to the technique.

As I mentioned, you set up some kind of system that alerts you to new blog posts about your chosen niche or keyword phrase. There are two
ways we can do is:

1.) Find the most popular blogs or websites in your niche. The first place to look is the top, most popular ‘guru’s’ in your niche – the
ones who consistently get a lot of comments on each post.

Alternatively, check out technorati’s ‘top 100′ blogs, and find the biggest in your niche.

We then subscribe to their feed. Usually the blogs will send their own alert out when a new post is published, but I find it quicker to put
the feed directly into a feed reader (you can download free ones, like AlertBear), and set it to make a sound and notify you.

We want to be notified as quick as possible, so we can jump over their in an instant to leave our comment. This is because the first few comments are the ones that get read the most – thus giving you the most traffic.

Not many people will read every comment, especially if there’s hundreds – so if you hear the alert, drop everything and get over their quick!

2.) Google alerts. With this, you can write in any keyword or subject, and you’ll be notified whenever a new page or post is created on the whole internet (as long as Google has indexed it) which includes those keywords.

You can set up alerts to notify you instantly, or at a certain time each day. If you’re not in a position to jump onto any alerts, then at least you can set a certain time each day to concentrate on them.

3.) Google blog search or blog commenting software. If you want to get to work straight away, you can use Google blog search to research any places to leave comments. It works just like Google alerts, but in real time.

You can even set it to show you blog posts that were published in the last hour, so you can still be in with a chance of being one of the first commenters.

You can do the same with blog commenting software, like Comment Kahuna, which can bring some advanced filtering, and make the process easier.

Please don’t underestimate this traffic tactic. It can far surpass other traffic building techniques, and can even be done in place of SEO. You just need to put consistent effort in, and the traffic will come. It will also remain as long as the site owners keep their posts there.

The other benefit is becoming well known as an expert. In your particular niche, especially by regular readers.

ProBloggingPlan!

I can tell you that it feels great to be taking action instead of just looking and learning (aka surfing the web!) which I have spent more than enough time doing.

ProBloggingPlan was born after a discussion that I had with my friend, auntie and mentor Kelly Stone.  I took advice about three years ago from Kelly and did have some very limited success, the problem was that I was too impatient and got distracted by anything and everything online.  Soon I was suffering from information overload, doing a little of everything and actually doing nothing.

Like so many others online I ended up quitting before I saw any real results.

That was then though and now I am back to stop dreaming and start making results happen for me.  I am now a full time marketer!

Just five weeks ago I thought that my family and I were destined for real trouble (we’re certainly not out of the woods though) as I lost my part time job.  So at a family gathering I got talking to Kelly again and realised that the only reason that I failed at internet marketing last time around was because I was only playing at it.  I treated it like a hobby instead of a business and it showed in my results.

As of August 22nd this year I became a real life internet marketer!

ProBloggingPlan is here for me to document my progress (failings as well as success) and hopefully help others who might be in the same boat as me.  I really hope that you can follow along with me :)

Step-by-step Guide to Keyword Research Using Google Keyword Tool

After registering your domain name, the next step is to do a complete keyword research for your niche. This takes a while and might be very tedious but hang in there as this is one of the most critical stages.

During keyword research you will find out about keywords that get the most monthly searches, how competitive they are and whether they are paid highly in Adwords (if you are planning to monetize your website with Adsense).

I usually try to come up with categories first before doing in-depth keyword research.  If you have 4 categories in your website for example, you should find at least 20 keywords for each category.

Of course you can do more researching later once your website is up and running, but I find it always easier to have a long list of good keywords ready before planning any content writing.

Why Google Keyword (or Keyword Planner) Tool?

I choose Google Keyword Tool as it’s free, it’s not totally accurate, but so are even other paid keyword tools out there.

For people who are starting out and want to keep the costs to a minimum, Google Keyword Tool is perfect and will just do the job.

Note: In a few months the Keyword Tool will be replaced by Keyword Planner, however the principle is still the same. You will have to register for an Adwords account to be able to access this tool, which is a very easy process using your Google account. Please check out my Keyword Planner Tutorial and Review to know how to use this new tool for your keyword research.

You don’t have to submit any billing information or even verify the account to use the Keyword Planner tool.

The keyword research process, step by step

So here is how I do keyword research using Google Keyword Tool, step by step:

(A tutorial on doing keyword research with Keyword Planner tool can be found here)

Step 1: Move over to http://adwords.google.com/o/KeywordTool

Step 2: Begin with your main topic. In this case, I begin with my main area of interest “kitchen storage” as the website I want to do research for is in the “home organizing” niche.

Remember to tick “Exact search”, which are the exact terms that people enter in Google Search.

You can also alter the “Advanced Options and Filters” to choose the geographic area and language that you are targeting.

For example if I want to know how many German speaking people in Germany search for this term, I would modify this setting to cover that.

You can sign in to your Google Adwords account to skip the Captcha submit and to save the results.

Step 3: Picking out the winners

This is the most important step and also the most time-consuming one: picking out the right keywords that have high enough search volume.

You can sort the list by local or global searches and go through the list to find the most suitable keywords.

After you have chosen all the keywords you like, you can export your keyword ideas into a .csv file. I usually keep all of my keywords for a website in a single spreadsheet.

Criteria for a good keyword

Search volume

I usually have 2 sets of keywords to optimize for: the category keywords and article keywords.

The category keywords are the umbrella keywords for all the articles in the same topic. So if your website is about “home organizing”, the categories would be “kitchen storage”, “living room storage”, etc.

For the category I usually aim for at least 8000 global searches and at least 4000 local searches.

However with keywords for each article, my criteria is usually lower, I could go as low as 600 local searches per month, depending on how easy it is to create an article around that keyword.

Notice: The “Competition” column does not imply the difficulty to rank that keyword on Google Search but refers to how many people are bidding on that keyword.

If the “Competition” is Low, beware to use that keyword as there might not be enough relevant ads to display on your site.

The cost per click

If you are planning to monetize your blog with Adsense, you would want to look at the CPC (cost per click) that advertisers have to pay.

This is an estimation of how much Google Adsense gets paid when a visitor clicks on the Adsense advertisement on your site. You will get pay around 70% of that cost per click if I’m not wrong.

The easy way to check the competitiveness of your chosen keywords

There are many free and paid ways to assess the competitiveness of your keywords, however I’m showing you the easiest and fastest way to achieve this.

Step 1: Head to Google Search and enter your chosen keyword in quotes (“ ”). I choose the keyword “kitchen storage ideas” that I got from Google Keyword Tool.

Step 2: See how many search results are there for this exact keyword

For a keyword that has 3000 global searches, I usually aim for at most 100000 search results, some people go for even a higher number of results but I am less ambitious and tend to play safe

Note: There are actually a lot of ways to go about this. Many people like to use the allintitle: keyword command to check keyword competition, this will check for pages that have the keyword (broad) in the page’s title tag. If you choose to go this way, the search results would be a lot smaller. I usually go the other way though, for a less optimistic look as many websites will rank over you, even if they don’t have the keyword in their title.

Step 3: A quick assessment on the sites that appear on the first page

Install Seoquake, a great little free add-on for your browser that will display the necessary parameters on a webpage.

Hit “request parameters” and look for good signs, which are:

No .edu or .gov
At most 4 sites with PR 4 or higher
Have social media sites, Q&A or forums
At least 2 sites without exact keyword in their title
At least 2 sites that are under 2 years old and low PR
If you see 1-2 websites for the target keyword in the search result that seem weak or not optimized (the last 2 criteria), they might be good targets for you to outrank.

Below is a quick assessment for the keyword “kitchen storage ideas” that I have chosen previously.

The difficulty of this keyword to rank is medium as there are a few authority big media sites already on the first page.

However there are also 2 sites that I might be able to outrank.

Conclusion

I do use other paid keyword tools for keyword research task, and have used many over the years. However Google Keyword Tool is still a simple, easy to use and offers good keyword suggestions.

Even though the data is taken from Google’s database, which is not very updated, many other keyword tools, including paid tools, use this data to give suggestions also.

Therefore if you are or your small business is on a tight budget, Google Keyword Tool is an excellent tool to carry out keyword research tasks.

The keyword research process is a bit lengthy and boring, but it might be one of the most important steps for your online marketing efforts so take your time to discover and dig out invaluable gems for your website and blog.

The Blog Business: How to Succeed with a Blog Network

It took you long, sleepless days of non-stop work to get your blog up and running. In your opinion, it’s a hit – with its nice, edgy design and your read-worthy entries, it’s got what every blog surfer could ask for. You’ve even set up ads on your blog, in the hopes that it will make you some extra money.

Unfortunately, after a week or so, you realize that your blog is not getting a lot of visitors. It might have to do with the fact that not a lot of people know about it to begin with – the only advertising that you’ve done for your blog is to post a few messages on your member forums, announcing that you have set up your official home on the web. Your posts might have invited a few internet surfers to click on over to your site, but you don’t think it’s enough, and that your blog deserves much more visitors than it is currently receiving.

The answer to your desire for increased blog traffic is in blog networks.

Simply put, a blog network is a wide number of different blogs, made by different individuals, that are linked together under one group. The usual purpose of teaming up with other blogs is so that the team’s or network’s member blogs are able to share the traffic among their blogs. When you sign up for a blog network, you are almost 100% assured that the traffic in your blog will increase.

From another perspective, a blog network is really a marketing tool for blogs, which allows blog authors to cross-promote each other. With the technology behind blogs, it’s easy to “endorse” another person’s blog, and vice versa – a simple comment or shout-out on a blog can be a starting point of cross-promotion deals, in which the blog’s author and the blog’s visitor can decide to provide a link of each other’s blogs on their own corresponding sites. Blog networks are made out of these activities.

How do you succeed with a Blog Network? First, you must look for a blog network whose member blogs have the same content or interests as yours. This way, you’ll know that the traffic you will get from these blogs are readers who are most likely interested in what you’re posting. The next thing to do is to make friends. See, the bottom line in succeeding with a blog network is that it is much like succeeding in your social networks: you must be able to let other blogs put in a good word for your blog. A simple concept, but definitely not as simple to pull off.

How to Choose a Blog Topic

Before you actually start blogging, you have to decide what you’re going to write about. If you hope to making money blogging, you have to chose your blog topic carefully. If you’ve already chosen your topic, go to step 2.  If you have no idea where to begin, there are a few general guidelines that you can follow to make choosing your blog topic easier.

Are You Interested?

My first recommendation is to choose a topic that you’re interested in; something you’re passionate about. The reason I chose to create a blog to teach people how to make money blogging is because it’s something I’m passionate about. I’ve been the person searching for ways to make money online, and I’ve been the person trying to figure out how to create my own blog; it was frustrating, so I thought I could help make the process easier for others. These are things that helped me to chose the topic for my blog. Blogging about something you’re interested in will make blogging fun. When you blog about something you’re not interested in, blogging about it on a constant basis will feel like a chore. The idea to make money online means not only having a less demanding job, but also a job that you enjoy. Choosing the right topic makes accomplishing these goals a lot easier.

Is Anyone Else Interested?

My second recommendation is to choose a topic that other people are interested in. Choosing a topic that others are interested in will greatly increase the profitability of your blog. To make money blogging, other people must be interested in your topic. If other people are interested in your blog topic, chances are many of them will spend money to learn more about the topic if necessary.  So how do you figure out what other people are interested in? I started by doing a simple google search using the search “Most Profitable blog topics”. The search returned quite a few results, from which I chose the topics that interested me most. I love helping people, so I found myself choosing topics that included various ways to help people succeed at making money online. I also love writing, so before long it hit me that I should help others using my writing skills. Since I know so much about making money online and Internet marketing, I decided to help others make money online, I then narrowed down the topic of making money online to making money with a blog. There are my subtopics in this niche that I can continue to blog about for quite a while. Once I think I have covered most of the topics related to making money with a blog, I can add another page or category to my blog and discuss other ways to make money online, or I can create another site discussing some other avenue of making money online.

If you have no idea where to start, a great way to find profitable a blog topic is to find profitable keywords. Once you’ve chosen several profitable keywords related to topics you’re interested in, and are knowledgeable about, you can narrow down the list to one topic. Google Keyword Planner is an excellent tool to use to find profitable keywords. Gmail account holders can sign up for a free Google Adwords account to use the keyword planner. If don’t have a Gmail account sign up for a free account here. Market Samurai is also a great keyword finder tool, and they offer a free trial so you use it to help you find a profitable blog topic to blog about. Once you have narrowed your list down to the perfect topic you’re ready for step 2 , choosing a niche.

How to Find a Niche Market

Filed under Affiliate Marketing, Information Marketing, Internet Marketing
Before you decide what your internet business is going to sell, you need to decide what your market is.  Key bit of advice (don’t worry, I made this mistake the first time around).  Find a market of buyers on the internet before you decide what you’re going to sell.  You can find or create products once you know you have things to sell them.
First, think about how people use the internet.  Why do you go online? Entertainment, sure.  News, probably.  Finding an answer – most definitiely.  Shopping – yes.  Now think about the last two.  Everyday millions of people use the Internet to find out information – how to solve a problem they’re having, how to do something.  They use the internet for research and this is also true when people go shopping.  Typically you go to the store to browse, but when you go online to shop, you’re usually looking for something specific – you’re researching before you buy – even if you’re going to buy in the store.
Keeping in mind that when people use the internet to find solutions – whether it’s for a problem or a product will go along way in helping you pick your niche.  Your niche needs to be focused around a problem are trying to solve – whether it’s how to cure acne, lose weight or stop their child from bedwetting, or which model of camera to buy.
Say for instance you love jewelry and want to start a business in that area.  Now jewelry is too broad, but perhaps you really love making your own glass bead jewelry.  Are there lots of other people who like to do that too?  Do they have blogs, websites and forums they go to?  Arre peole who like to make and buy bead jewelry easy to find and identify on the internet?  Yes – and that is why a market niche defined like that makes sense.
Now you’re probably saying – but there are already tons of people online in the bead jewelry space – how could I make money there?  If it’s big enough market you can – you only need a small percentage of the active buyers to buy from you.  But remember – most of the people in this market might not be looking for jewelry that is already made – they’re looking for supplies, how to books, how to videos, etc.
And this is where you come in – are you an expert in this area?  Could you become one by reading a few books, taking a few more classes?  Could you start a blog about bead jewelry and put Google Adsense on there?  Could you write an e-book about how to make bead jewlery and sell it for $9?  Could you find someone else who’s already done it and sell their product as an affiliate.  Does Amazon have a lot of products about bead jewelry that you could promote, weaved into your blog content about bead jewelry?

Why Hosting Your Own Blog is So Important

When you first start blogging you might wonder if you need to spend the money and host it yourself or if you can just get a free blog from wordpress or blogger.  Don’t.  Always, always, host it yourself.  Here’s why
Many of the free blogging platforms won’t let your own ads, promote affiliate products or drive traffic to your blog via PPC.  That’s means it will be harder for you to make money directly from your blog.  Which maybe isn’t your goal if you just want to share your life story or promote your services.  But at some point you might re-think it.  Start smart from the beginning.
Using your own domain name will make it shorter and easier to remember.  If not you will wind up with something like this: http://www.mycoolsite.com.wordpress.com vs the short and sweet www.mycoolsite.com.  Which would you rather type in – which would your customers and visitors?
Also, at any time if your blog hosted on blogger or wordpress could be taken down and removed – for any reason – ok so you they probably think you violated some terms and conditions.  Maybe you did, maybe you did – but the last thing you want is for your blog to disappear.  That doesn’t happen when your blog is your own.
And of course, probably the best reason to host your own blog – as you blog you’re building up content on your site that points to you.  This is good for SEO or Search Engine Optimization.  SEO basically means that your blog is well designed, set up and written to be found by search engines.  So when someone goes to a search engine and types in a question or a topic that relates to your blog, the search engine will process your content and present one of your pages in the (hopefully) top search results.  This is a lot easier to do when your content is on your own domain.  You will be able to build the authority and traffic of your blog.  If you’re hosting on a blog extension, well you’ll just be promoting them.
And finally, hosting your own blog just looks more professional. It says you have invested time and money in your blog and business and that you’re ready to be taken seriously.

Matt Cutts: Do You Still Build Links Using Article Directories? Why It May Not Be A Good Idea

Do article directories still make sense in your marketing and SEO plans?

Deepika’s question to Matt Cutts shows that there’s still hope around article directories, even after so many years (they went strong in the 90s and early 2000s, after all).

However, over the years article directories have been abused for black hat SEO and gibberish, so their reputation has gradually decreased.

In this Webmaster Tools video, Matt Cutts says that Google has been seeing how article directory content “tends to be a little bit of the lower quality stuff” or downright spammy content that then spreads around the Web, so after all articles from directories effective anymore and he advises to stay away from them.

So, article directories are not a good idea… What to do, then?

You’ll be amazed at the number of ways you can use to generate links from content! ;) And they’re all more effective than to build links using article directories.

Guest Posts

Don’t make them spammy, of course, or they’ll be like old spammy article directory content! What you want to do is focusing on the reader, NOT on links. Links will come on their own when readers will share, bookmark and cite the guest post on their blogs.

Forums

Participate in forums and write in-depth, insightfuly threads and reply posts. Sometimes you can add a link back to relevant content on your site, sometimes you can’t but you can still mention your brand name— and that will work, too.

Quora and Yahoo! Answers

Answer readers’ questions and make sure to add your brand name and your text-only URL (no hyperlink) in your signature. But don’t answer for the sake of citation— give the person who asked the question (and other users, and then site moderator) a reason to love you!

Social Networks

Write insightful tweets, pins and Facebook posts— and add links from your blog to support your point. This shouldn’t be blatant promotion, but a way to encourage discussion and an exchange of opinions over a certain topic.

WordPress for Blogging And Why It Works – An Interview With Kari

Is there too much hype around WordPress for blogging?

We think not — if anything, using WordPress as a blogging platform has changed so many bloggers’ lives for the better and we believe there is so much more to say about this wonderful software that revolutioned the history of blogging worldwide.

But this time we are not going to offer you one of our usual tutorials or motivational posts — we have an interview to share.

Yes, we interviewed Kari (aka Bellaisa Filippis) of AttractGetWomen.com. She tells us how turning into a WordPress blogger changed her life and how it improved user experience for her readers.

Our (clickable) questions and Kari’s answers:

Why did you choose WordPress as your blogging platform?
Does WordPress for blogging make things easier for you? Please share your most useful tip :)
Do you/your designer design your WordPress themes or do you have a choice of free/paid themes to go with?
How does WordPress influence good UX in your experience?
Q. Why did you choose WordPress as your blogging platform?

A. Kari (Blogger And Writer)

Kari, Blogger and Writer, tells us about her experience with WordPress for blogging

When I first started online, I used a website platform by Homestead (Intuit Websites). Creating a website with that platform was the most time-consuming thing I’ve ever done. It required you to place everything, from text to HTML, on the page yourself. There were no widgets. There was no header, body, or footer area. I had to drag and drop everything where I wanted it. Then, I found WordPress and my life became so much better!

Q. Does WordPress for blogging make things easier for you? Please share your most useful tip :)

A. Yes! It allows me to quickly add anything I want without having to do much work. Text, images, HTML – it is all so easy to add. I think the most useful thing on WordPress is the plugins. You can pretty much find a plugin to help you do anything that you want to do.

Q. Do you/your designer design your WordPress themes or do you have a choice of free/paid themes to go with?

A. I use both free and paid themes. I have never had one designed specifically for me. Sometimes I find a free theme that I really like, such as Twenty Fifteen, and I stick with it for a while. However, paid themes offer more freedom to create a unique site that is exactly what you want if you don’t know how to add code and create your own.

Q. How does WordPress influence good UX in your experience?

A. Because I have had to physically create my own website, I know how hard it can be to create something that users can read and navigate through quickly. WordPress makes it easy to lay out everything you want your users to find and click through, and to me that is the most important aspect of any website.

Successful Corporate Blogging Unveiled

If you have been running a company that’s striving to get a decent online presence, you don’t need much introduction on what’s-what of corporate blogging. But if you do, then you must have been hibernating in a cave for quite a long time!

Corporate blogging is as simple as an employee or an outsourced blogger journaling about the company he or she works for. However, this marketing method is not as easy as it sounds.

Fortune 100 companies also have already taken notice of this corporate blogging trend. One Jupiter Research even discovered that innumerable big time companies are about to set up shop with their corporate blogs in the next six months.

If you publish a business blog about your company, that blog will reap search engine visibility. Such search engine visibility will lead to good search engine ranks if one learns the how-to’s of good business blogging.

Here are some pointers for you to avoid groping in the dark while doing your corporate blogging:

1. Be familiar with your prospective readers.

You don’t put up a corporate blog that will be read and is supposed to be appreciated by everyone who gets to reach your blog. Identify your potential audience and learn what makes them tick. If your company offers toys, you don’t blog like a mumbling 3 year old who’s not even able to read yet. Through your business blog, you talk to toy dealers who might be interested in selling your products and parents who want to keep their kids happy and safe.

2. Be wise on who to hire.

If you’re not a prolific writer or you simply don’t have the time to write, don’t fret. Corporate bloggers for hire abound. However, you don’t just hire anyone who comes your way. Get a background check of your prospect corporate blogger. You don’t want to lose the credibility of your company because you hired a less-than credible corporate blogger, right? Hire one with sheer passion with whatever service, product or field that your company offers or deals with.

3. Cooperate with your corporate blogger.

Make sure that you coordinate with your blog’s author on what content he or she should provide. Content that can’t be found anywhere else is the secret to keep your readers coming back for more. Ask your blogger to be in the know with the latest info that’s relevant with your company’s services or products. However, let your blogger’s personality shine through while providing content for your business blog. This is what makes readers love reading blogs. The author’s persona becomes magnetic.

An interesting blogger who knows how to highlight your company’s endeavors is what should help you breeze through corporate blogging.

What Is SEO / Search Engine Optimization?

Nobody reads the Yellow Pages anymore, people use computers and search engines to find who they are looking for. So you have a big problem if you do not score well in search engines. Of course you can advertise with Google and pay lots of money for paid traffic, but its much better to make sure your site comes in the ‘normal’ search results. To do this you need to optimize your website for search engines.

What is Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) ensures that your website gets a high position in search results. At Google, it is about the results in the middle of the page. You need to build your website with SEO in mind. This way when someone searches for a key word that you want to rank for, your website or blog will show up in the search results. And if you are good enough, you will even show up in the top ten, or maybe even first. A general rule of thumb is the higher ranked your website is, the more traffic it will get.

There are many factors to consider when you are talking about SEO. Here are some of them.

Step 1: Look to see if your site is ranking in search engines. 

Key in a few relevant terms in Google and look at what position your website is. Want to improve? Then you can hire an SEO agency or you can learn how to do it yourself.

Step 2: Search engines, Google and other sites

For SEO, three things are important:

- Is your site technically sound, is your website readable for search engines. Are there errors?
- How do you tell the search engine what your website is about, are you using keywords, meta-tags, title, and description? Are they all using your keywords?
- How popular is your website? How many back links do you have? How popular are those sites linking to you, and what is there PR?

Step 3: Choose the right keywords

Choose up to three terms from which you want to be found. This is just a good starting point. With only three key words you can put all of your focus and energy towards just those three. Take sufficient time for this step because this is very important. Are you a plumber for example, it may be tempting to choose the word “plumber”, but that’s a lot harder to rank for than the phrase “plumber in atlanta”.   Do not use your own language, but the words that the people searching may use.

Step 4: Optimize!

Google has very useful tools that allow you to see what keywords are popular at the moment (Google Keyword Tool). You can also view with which keywords people ended up on your website (Google Analytics). These two tools are awesome and everyone should have them on every website they have. They are both free and you should go get and install them right now. I will have a tutorial for that very soon.

Checklist for optimizing for SEO

- Make sure your keywords are in your titles, meta tags and the content of your pages.
- Create strong and unique content. The keywords should be mainly in the first 200 words. Note, do not overuse the keywords either. Google will mark this as spam and knock you down the list for that.
- Give all of your pages good titles and descriptions. The title is reflected in the search results. The description should make clear what that page is about but doing this in a way to draw them in and click on your link.
- Use metatags. A tag is a code in the HTML that provides information on a page. Meta tags are in the source code of your site, and are generally not seen by users. But these search engines use meta tags on your website every time they index them.
- Check to make sure there is no bad links on your site. Ensure that both internal and external links to the pages lead to where they are suppose to.
- Make sure the web pages properly “read” for search engines. If it takes a long time for your pages to loads then there may be some code that is incorrect or has errors. The search engine struggled to “crawl” and can see this in the search results.

Should I use a .com, .org, or .net?

When you think of domain names, most people readily assume that your domain ends in a .com.

After all .com was one of the original domain name extensions first implemented in the internet in 1985. Also included in that original line – up were .net and .org but .com remains to be the most widely used domain name extension today.

With that said, always go for a .com when it is available.

In some cases, you may find that the .com is taken but when you go to the site, it only appears as a parking page full of links. That means someone has bought this domain either intending to use it in the future or to sell it to people like you who may be wanting to have it.

You can try contacting the owner and buying it, but most of them command high prices for these $9 domains.

Otherwise you can go for a .net or .org which are still considered top level domain names.

In cases when a site is already built in the .com domain of your choice, you may want to consider choosing another domain or adding some modifying affixes or words such as the, a, pro, or blog. If you use the same domain name with let’s say a .net or .org, your site might look like a copy cat.

Other ideas to help you choose a domain

Stumped for words? Use a thesaurus to find similar terms for your domain.
 Think of combining related words that have the same first letter or syllable.
Use words that rhyme. A domain name that rhymes nicely can help make it more memorable.
Ready to brainstorm?

Here’s a simple three –  step process to brainstorm a domain name for your new blog:

List keywords and ideas that represent your blog and your brand.
Combine the words and evaluate them based on the guidelines above.
Find out if the domain names on your list are available. My favorite tool to research available domain names is bustaname.com.
When you’ve chosen the domain name you want, it’s time to register!

How to register your domain name

Namecheap is the one I use to register my domains and I highly recommend it.

They regularly offer discount coupons and they give free Whoisguard protection to protect your contact details on the web. Their user interface is also easy to navigate and they are constantly improving their site to be more user friendly.

Registering is pretty straightforward. Simply type in the domain you want, click on your chosen domain extension, enter your registration details and pay for your domain.

And you’re done! Once your domain is registered, you’ll need to get webhosting which we’ll discuss in greater detail in the next post. For now, when you type your domain, you’re going to see what’s called a “domain parking page” with links. This is the temporary page for your domain before you get hosting and filling your site with content.

Where to Make A Blog For Free
The best way to go to make a blog for free is to use Blogger. Getting noticed in the search engines and especially Google will be easier because Google owns Blogger.If you own a Gmail account you can use that email address to log in to your Blogger account and start blogging. The interface is easy to use and support is there if you need it.

WordPress.com is another great website to get you start with a free blog. This is similar to the paid edition which I will not talk about in this article except you have No Plug-ins. Your blog will still be able to get recognized by the search engines with the right keywords and good content because the site has a High PR.

Squidoo is a great place to start a blog or what Squidoo calls”Lenses”. This is a great way to get traffic to a blog as a back link or just as a blog in itself. With this community you  have the ability to have a large audience looking at your lenses and is like any other social network. The more friends and people you get to like your articles and comments the more traffic you will get to your lenses. You can also get paid by Squidoo for having advertisements on your page.

Make A Blog For Free And Get It Indexed Quickly
Getting your blog indexed can be a long time when you just submit to Google. Submitting your sitemap to Google will help you get indexed faster as well as submitting it to yahoo. Blasting out to social media sites like Digg and Stumbleupon to get some more recognition. For Faster results get the FREE software that I am offering for a limited time. Get your sites indexed in 3 days or less like I do using this software.You can get this piece of software by adding your name and email at the top of the page.

These are the easiest ways to make a blog for free and get it indexed. Starting a blog is not hard you just have to do your keyword research and apply what you learn. I have another blog which shows you how to make a blog for free and start making money.

Different Ways to Make Money Online With Your Blog:

In trying to make money online, most bloggers limit themselves to using easy to use Ad networks like Google AdSense or Chitka on their blog to earn. Those are two of the most amazing ways to make money online. However, if you were like me, you may be one of those bloggers who doesn’t believe in placing such type of ads on your blog, and might want to know other means of making money from your blog other than those advertisements.
However, I am going to be sharing some of the working methods professional bloggers are using to earn un-imaginable income monthly from their blogs without placing AdSense, and you can look through and select the one that suits your need.
I will also recommend you to read How to get FREE WordPress setup and customization. This recommended article will give you further insight on how to earn from your blog.

Write an eBook and package it for sale
If you have a lot of experience in any field, you can write a book on it and package it for sale. If you can’t write it by yourself, you can hire someone and bring out a unique information product that is yours alone. If you can write an eBook on a topic that has wide acceptance, it will sell forever and that will help you to make a consistent income online. You can also sell your eBook on your blog and or on Kindle publishing platform. This way you will make repeated sales from a single effort.

Become a freelance expert writer
To become a freelance writer, you must make your blog niche specific. In other words, you will choose a specific niche you have passion and expertise in and write mainly on that niche. If you are blogging like that, you are likely to earn a lot with freelance writing. If your writing is very good and you think you can target wider audience, drop an email to other big blogs in your niche and tell them you are looking for a writing job. You can as well drop a notice to that at the bottom of your blog posts and you will be surprised to know that a lot of blogs and people out there are in lookout for good niche writers. Your income possibility in rendering this service can be anything from $5-$200 from single blog post writing. To attract prospective customers, you need to create a landing page on your blog with a unique title like “Write For Me”. When you blog, prospects will see your adverts and come and buy.

Sponsored Reviews

This is another great way to earn from your blog. You can make money online by reviewing any product or any service. However, just like the point above, you can succeed more if your blog is niche specific. For an example, if you want to offer a review on iPhone, you need to have a technology blog that talks about iPhones. Another way of making reviews is to sign up as an affiliate to a particular product you want to offer a review on. Create a review on it and encourage your readers to buy a copy of that product you just reviewed through your link and if they buy from your link, you make money.

Consider Native Advertising

Most recently in the blogosphere, there has been a raging debate on whether Native advertising is ethical or not. One thing stand out very clear, a lot of blogs out there are making huge money with native advertising. In native advertising, you mix the marketing message for your advertiser in such a way that makes it look like a news and not an advert. Upworthy is a great example of native advertising. There are a lot of Native advertising sites out there. Take a look at their terms of service and make your decision for or against.

Start Premium Blog
By Premium blogging here, I mean a very rich content blog that people have to pay to read some sections or all the content. To do this, you must be an expert in a particular field. Then you should have a very rich content blog and large followers. When your blog becomes too famous, you can now create a membership options around it. That way, for people to read detail of your posts, they must log in and doing so requires paying of fixed monthly subscription fees or periods defined by you.

Start Consulting Services
From the beginning of this article, one thing that remained constant is the word expertise. Expertise in a field is gotten after consistency in output. Once you attain that status, depending upon your niche, it is highly advised that you start a web consulting program of your own. For example, if you are into Agricultural niche, you can offer coaching on Poultry, Animal Husbandry and so on.

How to Open new AdSense Account After Getting Banned

Here’s what you must do to get a new account:

Removed Google Analytics from all sites (I believe they track this to a degree).
Removed websites from Google Webmaster Tools (just in case).
Make sure all outgoing links on banned domains do not point to new domains (I believe they track this to a degree).
New or slight variation in name. (required)
New address. (required)
Created an LLC business for a new EIN. (required)
New domain. (required)
New email. (required)
New business bank account. (required)
New IP (cycled modem before applying).
From what I’ve studied across many posts online, they track all the above.
Doing the above guarantees they will not be able to “connect” the new account with the old one and ban you upon reaching the payout threshold.

Yes, creating a business for an EIN costs around $100, but if you’re using Adsense wisely, the cost is minor compared to the payouts you’ll be receiving. It’s a business investment, after all. Business accounts at WAMU are free and Bank of America biz accts are free if you make at least one Checkcard purchase.

And you can never put Adsense back on a domain that was banned previously.

How to Brainstorm and Register a Great Domain Name for Your New Blog

Passionate and positive were two of my most favorite words.

When I was thinking about my first ever domain name, I thought I made a smart choice by combining both words into one name.

I didn’t know a thing about domain name registry so I went ahead and agreed to have my web hosting provider purchase my domain name for me.

“Passiotive.com? Well what does it mean?” A friend asked as I told her about my new site.

And right then and there, I got my first real lesson in choosing a domain name:

It’s okay to be unique but choose something that’s easy to understand from the beginning.

Needless to say, I abandoned that domain name and chalked up the $13 I spent to my wallet and to experience. Imagine how I slapped my head when I found other domain registrars that only charged $10 or even less for a domain.

I went on to register other domain names but this time I was more careful about the names I chose and where I registered them.

If you’ve made a mistake in choosing a domain name, take heart. Ten dollars is a relatively low price to pay to correct it.

If you’re in the process of getting a domain, read this. You may pick up something useful that would help you choose the right one for you.

When choosing a domain, make it easy

You can choose to do this test yourself or you can try running your domain name through a few trusted friends and see how they respond based on the points below. If you answer “No” to any of these points, then you may want to consider changing your domain or choosing another one.

Remember though that these are just guidelines. You can choose to follow them or not, ultimately you have to trust your judgment about what domain is best for you.

Is it easy to understand? You’ll want a domain name that represents what your blog is about and people will “get it” right away or with very little explanation.

For example: SimpleMom.net is a blog aimed for moms who want to live simply.

Is it easy to remember? You’ll want a domain name that’s memorable or catchy. One word domain names are best and they take quite a bit of a brainstorm. Otherwise, a domain with three words are still good, two words are better.

For example: You’d be lucky to find a one word domain name like shopping site Motherhood.com. But if you play around a little or add a few adjectives or words you can go with fulfillingmotherhood.com or motherhoodjournals.com (these two are actually available.)

Is it easy to type? Generally, domains with numbers and hyphens are harder to type than straight words. Avoid putting numbers in your domain name unless they are an integral part of your brand or blog like 5MinutesforMom.com. Also avoid hyphens but if you must absolutely use it (for example, to get a .com), try to limit it to one.

For example: Entrepreneurs-journey.com is an established blog about entrepreneurship and marketing. His domain is quite difficult to type but since he has worked smart to build his blog since 2005, his domain has become a household name in his niche despite the hyphen.

Is it easy to spell? Playing around with words to get a unique domain name is a good idea. Make sure though that the one you come up with is still easy to pronounce and spell.

For example: Gizmodo.com is one of the top gadget blogs on the web. Even if they played around with the word gizmo, the domain is still easy to spell.

Is Alexa ranking a useful tool?

If you’ve started to take your blogging seriously and have met any other like minded bloggers, you’ll have no doubt heard of Alexa. It’s the web site ranking tool of choice for many people. Created by Amazon, it offers interesting statistics on millions of websites. PR companies often refer to Alexa to gauge whether to work with a particular website.

Ever since it’s inception, Alexa rankings and their accuracy have been hotly debated. Misleading, confusing and erratic, it’s hard to know if Alexa is really a useful tool for web site statistics. Here’s some issues we’ve found.

The Alexa toolbar

All the statistics created by Alexa come from the Alexa toolbar. This can be downloaded and installed on your web browser and tracks the websites you go to and the number of pages you view. Aside from the dubious use of this information, it’s important to note exactly who has the Alexa toolbar installed. If you’re a blogger or a web designer you’re highly likely to have downloaded it. If you’re into tech gadgets you may have too but if you are Aunt Mabel browsing the web for knitting patterns you’re not likely to. Neither is the “average web user” and of course there’s no toolbar integration for the millions of mobile web users too. Over 85 million people have it installed but that’s a fraction of the users online, especially when you consider Facebook has over 500 million users worldwide. The toolbar is only available for Internet Explorer, Firefox and most recently Google’s Chrome. There’s no support for Opera or Safari so many Apple Mac users are not included in the viewing statistics.

Confusing results

At Alexa.com you can search for almost any site in the world and you’ll find stats on it. Unfortunately these stats aren’t presented in a very meaningful way. While some of the data is of interest, if you search for your own site you’ll usually find a huge discrepancy between your actual stats and Alexa stats. If you compare two sites the results become even more confusing. You’ll often find a site you know is much more popular than another will have worse results on Alexa. This is often due to the demographic of people viewing the 2 sites. 1 with a higher probability of Alexa toolbar installed. You’ll also find that unless your site appears in the top 200,000 or so the results are fairly meaningless anyway. It’s worth taking an average over the past 6 months rather than looking at daily stats.

Alexa doesn’t like Web 2.0 sites

We all love sites that make browsing and logging in an easy experience. Lots of great web 2.0 technologies like Ajax and Flash have made it possible to log in, change settings and post tweets without ever needing to refresh the page we’re on. Unfortunately this is useless to Alexa which only counts page views. A site that has a log in form on it’s own page will get more page views than a site with a clever Web 2.0 approach. The same for a site that has one page and a flash movie to offer all the content. One page view means less hits for Alexa to count, so again the results are skewed by a lack of universal support.

Is Alexa useful?

The evidence would suggest that Alexa is an outdated and inaccurate tool for measuring a web site’s success and popularity. While this may be true I still believe Alexa has it’s uses. It’s best not to trust short term statistics as these will fluctuate, often wildly. Alexa also has a habit of updating it’s algorithms and reducing everyone’s scores as they strive to make them more accurate. If you’re looking for a general growth pattern and an overall average score for a web site then it still remains useful. Just be aware that it’s results may be inaccurate and skewed by a host of un-addressed issues.

How to improve your Alexa ranking

As with most tools on the internet that offer a scoring system, there are ways to manipulate them. Many people believe that simply installing the toolbar on your browser of choice and visiting your site will easily bump up your ranking. If your site is down in the low 2 millions, just installed the toolbar and visit your site every day. On many occasions it’s pushed a site in to the 100,000 area. You can also participate in webmaster forums where you can post links to your site. You’ll find a higher number of Alexa users there so your chances of a higher rank will increase.

Alexa should only ever be used as a guide, not as the last word in web statistics. It’s flaws not only create inaccurate results but make it fairly easy to be exploited. PR should take less not of it while many bloggers should be treating it as another SEO task and maximising their opportunity to rank high.

Matt Cutts No Longer Head of Webspam Team at Google, BUT What He Taught Stays

On May 22, Danny Sullivan at Search Engine Land shared the news that Matt Cutts is no longer the head of Webspam team at Google.

So Matt Cutts left Google, did he? Well… not exactly. Actually, he stays on leave, while other Google engineers and spokespeople step up as Google’s interactive faces with webmasters and search users.

According to Sullivan’s article, the new Head of Webspam Team at Google won’t be also a general spokesperson about listing issues like Cutts has been for years, because–

“It was never the case that the head of web spam should also be a general spokesperson on listing issues. That was just a natural synergy between Cutts being both knowledgeable about Google’s listing processes in general and his personal interest in taking that role.”

So, what happens of Matt Cutts’ long standing advice for webmasters while he was the Head of Webspam team?

That’s simple— the advice is here to stay.

There’s no reason why Cutts’ advice for webmasters, search users and SEOs should stop being useful just because he’s leaving his role at the Google Webspam team. Cutts’ advice has kept valid over the years and no matter how many changes in Google and in the SEO and Web Marketing fields have come with new discoveries and technologies, so we can safely assume we can continue to look up to Cutts’ advice for many years to come.

Below we make a summary of Matt Cutts’ advice for webmasters, SEOs and users he gave over the years.

Advice for webmasters

Webmaster’s integrity – Cutts’ main advice for webmasters is to maintain their own integrity when it comes to Web relationships. As Rusty Brick reported in 2013, Matt Cutts advised webmasters to NOT copy content from Wikipedia, verbatim, but to work out their own content on the basis of Wikipedia-based research.

Sometimes, all it takes to rank well in Google is an honest effort and a real drive to bring your users quality content.

On-topic, related content – In January this year, Sergio Aicardi published an article for the Content Marketing Institute titled “7 Key Pieces of Advice about Web Content Strategy from Matt Cutts“. The article is thorough and it sums up most of Cutts’ advice for webmasters interested in serving good content for their users (and get a better chance to rank in Google as well). From jargon to guest posting, Aircardi explains Cutts’ view of what on-topic, related content should look like in order to not appear spammy or manipulative.

Advice for SEOs

Natural links – Matt Cutts may be no longer at google, but over the years he has repeated ad nauseam that webmasters and SEO experts at companies should seek to acquire natural links that will help them build a reputation in Google. You can still buy links, but only in the case they don’t affect your placement in Google (aka, nofollow links).

In this post, Adam Thompson at RYP Marketing lists all 13 link building tips Matt Cutts left for the SEO community over the years.

If you still really want to push for links but stay under the ‘white hat’ umbrella, then Neil Patel’s link building advice at QuickSprout is your go-to guide.

Avoid gaming the system – Even though Matt Cutts has nothing against guest blogging for branding and recognition, he has spoken against guest blogging for SEO precisely for the reason it pollutes Google’s search rankings without adding real value for the user (often, it’s just blatant spam!) and because it’s blatant cheating (against webmasters and SEOs who put up with real efforts every single day).

Other ways to game the system include buying links that pass PageRank (NOT the toolbar PR that’s no longer updated, but Google’s main algorithm for ranking pages), stuffing and hiding keywords in the page, cloaking and sneaky redirects, etc. If you want your website to keep a good position in Google, avoid these tricks at all costs.

(Also, +1s on Google+ do NOT lead to higher rankings, so don’t delude yourself either!)

Advice for search users

Users’ needs come first – Matt Cutts always reminded webmasters and SEOs that users have priority for Google, whose aim is to serve helpful, interesting, entertaining results to users hungry for information, reference or even just fun products and services to enjoy.

Pick the most helpful results – Because you, as a user, come to Google to search for something, Google knows you will want to pick the most helpful results. Sometimes, the results you get on the first few pages in the SERPs are not what you’re looking for, however, so you are welcome to send Google feedback about the search results you get for your queries and their relevance for the scopes of your search.

Outsourcing: The Time Management Life Saver

When developing a network of niche or authority web sites, you eventually will reach a critical level that you cannot get past. This is the point where you are writing too many articles for publication on your own sites, penning too many other articles intended for link building, managing numerous blogs and taking care of maintenance will start to be too much for one person to handle. When you reach this stage, the key phrase you should be thinking over is: outsourcing?

Is Outsourcing the Time Saver it is Cracked Up to Be?
Outsourcing comes in all kinds of flavors and types. It can cover systematized blog set up, writing for main earning sites (money sites), satellite sites (that can link to your money sites), SEO link building, design of headers and logos and other services.

Outsourcing Blog Set Up
When using the WordPress blogging platform, it is possible to add a backup plugin like the http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/backup-and-move/ to backup the website. This can have the dual function of saving your site setup in case of data loss, but also makes a .zip file copy of your site installation which can be installed with the click of a mouse on a new domain with a fresh WordPress install.

In this way, it is possible to set up, for instance, an Amazon product review site, and then simply save the blog set up and re-install that on a new domain. From there, it’s quick to change the title, description, etc. and swap out the WordPress theme too. This saves time, but it can also make creating a new site something that can be broken down into steps that an outsourcer can follow.

Outsourcing Content Production
For the site owner, it is only possible to produce so many articles per day, to a good quality. After that, you quickly lose the desire to write more and even if you can produce the content, you will typically see a steady decline in quality. Even with a reduced publishing schedule from daily posts to 2-3 posts per week, when you have too many sites you will max out on time available to produce the content. At this point, you are forced to reduce the posting frequency, reduce the post length, reduce the quality or figure out another solution.

Content rates for native speakers start from around 1c per word. Less than that and the writer will struggle to stay financially solvent. It pays to treat the writer well, because they will stay with you long term and this saves time constantly screening for new writers whilst maintaining writing quality and style consistency over time. Some writers such as financial bloggers offer their own freelance writing services for 2.5-3c per word, which makes a 700-1,000 word financial article cost about $25-30.

It is also possible to outsource to non-native speakers. They offer content for 0.4c per word and upwards, but this is very low quality. The search engine, Google.com, has been rooting out web sites that contain low quality content from non-native speakers and a site owner using such cheap content risks making money this month, but losing all revenue with the next Google algorithm update and then throwing their hands up in the air and asking, “What happened?”
