Step 1: Do a comprehensive keyword analysis. You should have a list of keywords that’s between 20 to 40 words long. These keywords will tell you how people are looking for your topic. You may not use all of them specifically in metatags, at least not at first, but it’s a good idea to have them so you have a good idea of what people are looking for most.

Step 2: Write a decent website in HTML. You should have at least thirty pages to start with before expecting to get visitors in any quantity whatsoever. These thirty pages should be quality information, not a catalog of product descriptions. Provide plenty of background and context on the core subject of your website.

Step 3: Write metatags for each individual page on your website. These metatags should have the four or five keywords that define the page in question, along with an eye-catching title and description. Titles and descriptions don’t show up directly on your page, but they do show up in the search engine results pages. Considering that the results page is where a visitor decides to visit your website or not, the title and description have to get people to want to click.

Step 4: Set up a traffic analytics program on your website. A good analytics program tells you where people are going, what they’re doing, how they’re getting to your site and how long they’re staying. All of this is valuable information when trying to maximize your site’s appeal and ease of use.

Step 5: Submit your site to search engines. This gets your site indexed more quickly by the search engine spiders and gets you quicker results. In order to get maximum results, you may want to create or get an accurate XML sitemap before doing the submissions.

Step 6: Get quality inbound links. You can do this by asking people you know nicely, by participating in communities, or by waiting for the high quality information you’re providing to serve someone else as a reference. This last is, of course, the slowest.

Step 7: Start a blog, and update it religiously. You don’t have to do it every day, but you should at least do it every week. That’s the only way you’ll build a loyal following that looks forward to your new content. Of course, if they’re not on the same server, your blog and your website should be interlinked. If you can’t write yourself, hire a professional SEO copywriter to do your writing.

Step 8: Publish SEO articles and SEO press releases about your core topic that will lure people into your website. The idea is to provide quality, relevant information that will make readers want to know more. Again, these should be high quality, well written and informative articles. They should also lead to specific landing pages, not all to your home page. For example, if you’re providing information about one of your products, the link at the bottom should go to your product page, not your home page. Readers aren’t going to go navigating your site in order to find your product.

Step 9: Get listed in directories that specifically cater to your particular product or service. Some themed directories will let you list for free, some charge a small fee. Be careful to only do this with quality directories. Having a link on a link farm will only get you blasted by the search engines.

Step 10: Maintain your website. Get a program that will check for broken links every so often, and fix them promptly. If you have too many glitches on your server, your visitors will fly away like so many migrating birds.

Step 11: Resubmit your website’s updated sitemap every time you make an addition or move a page. This both allows the search engines to offer up-to-date information to their users, which they like, and you become more trustworthy to your customers because they can see that someone’s home, so to speak.

Step 12: Provide a contact form of some kind on your website so that your customers can talk to you. Don’t do a “squeeze page” where a visitor has to give up an email address before he or she can read the rest of the site, but do provide something through which people can make comments or ask for more information.

Your content on the internet can create a web of communication between each other, create a presence that is found by Search Engine Optimization, SEO. This ‘web’ draws the attention of ’spiders’ from the SEO algorithms who note how many places your content is found. They also recognize how much attention you are getting from visitors. The internet has a wonderful ebb and flow to it like an living organism. It becomes ‘alive’ with awareness of activity generated by sites. One of those sites could be yours.

This awareness by the SEO algorithms results in listing you closer to the front page of their contents list for certain words, keywords, that people type in.

So what can you do to help your content be found and visited by more people?

Here are some simple tips which do not cost money.

1.Figure out your Market:

Decide who you are marketing to. Spend some time thinking about who these people are. Your articles are created to provide value and service to this market. Be consistent in your content to address the focus of your niche market. You are becoming a solutions provider for them. Your visitors to your site will return, or look at other content you have when they find what they are looking for in your content. Your visitors may also refer others to your site which adds to your SEO.

2. Links:

When you are writing an article in one content sharing service , such as Squidoo, create a link from this article to one on the same topic posted in another content sharing site such as Hubpages. Another example is making a link from one article in a content sharing site to an article in your blog. If you know of an author of a website who supports your market, make arrangements to have their link in your site, in exchange for your link being posted in their marketing site.

The more articles and content you post with these kind of links will eventually result in your page being noticed more often by those ’spiders’ on the internet and your page ranking improving. This is SEO.

3. Keywords:

Over and over again you hear of the importance of keywords. Keywords are important because they are simply the words people are typing in to search engines looking for information. Your use of keywords is important in your article titles, At the beginning of paragraphs, and throughout the article. Reread your material carefully before posting it. Do you notice that your article is boring and repetitive with too many uses of the keyword? If keyword use is too obvious, abused, it is counterproductive. Is your attention kept with the freshness of the writing? Does the writing flow naturally? When you are writing, use one of several keyword tools to know which ones are commonly typed in by people looking for information. Remember, your writing is designed to capture the attention of both the internet surfer and once again, the ’spiders’ of the algorithms. This results in SEO

4.Original:

Your articles for your websites catch the best attention if they are original. There is a great capacity to gather content from article directories. This material is not unique to you and somehow does not catch as much attention as your own writing, even if you package it in a new format. Let your writing reflect your personality, being authentic is valuable. Simplicity is well received. Your article word count can be somewhere between 650 to 1000 words including your titles and subtitles.

5.Blog:

A blog is a wonderful tool that allows you to add content regularly. When you make a point to journal high quality, value based information in your blog, you are providing a service that generates attention. Visitors to your blog entries may bookmark your content, or link to it from their online content. All of this activity continues to add to that awareness of who you are to those ’spiders’ on the algorithms increasing S.E.O.

6. Domain Name:

Domain name use is another whole subject matter. For this article, we are wanting to achieve return visits to your website. If someone has found you while surfing,your domain name counts. If you are out in the marketplace, at a ballgame or anywhere in conversation with people, your domain name counts. Having a domain name that is easy to spell, to remember, that relates to the topic of your site is important. Return traffic is more likely to happen when visitors remember the name of your website, the domain name. Take some time to create your domain name, this part is free, but very important. There is a nominal fee to register domain names.

These are common reminders you will often find to put into practice when you are writing. You can start your marketing with effectiveness and low cost when you make good use of these six tips for SEO.

Attraction Marketing is a new model of marketing that results in measurable action steps and results. This empowers you to truly control your marketing strategy and get into cash-flow quickly, ensuring your success.

All good things start with a solid foundation. Your website, (business), is no different. Basic SEO can and will increase your bottom line. This is mostly work you do once in a while, with a little everyday work thrown in for good measure. So to help keep this article short and focused in on some basic seo we will look at three things you can (and should) do to help your site.

The single most important asset a website has is this…KEYWORDS. Search Engine Optimization would not exist without keywords, neither would Google for that matter. Basic SEO starts with a thorough examination of the words people use to find your site…KEYWORDS. Keyword research is nothing new, however, there is a bigger badder keyword tool on the net now! Google has now included information from the searches done on their site in their keyword search results. You can get up to date information on the amount of searches performed, for the keywords you are focused on, for the previous 12 month span…EXACTLY. Yeah exactly, not rounded up or down, not estimated, or pulled from a database of webpages.

I used this tool 1 time and not only changed the keywords in my ~all in one seo~ but actually changed the name of the site and my marketing plan!!! So for #1 you will revisit your keywords and then visit (https)//:adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal to find out EXACTLY how many people are looking for YOU right now. Be thorough and you may be surprised at how much work you need to do.

O.K. you revisited your keywords and updated them as needed (or not). Now how do you make the most of your improved keywords? By doing 2 things. We are on #2 so you should have two tasks. First you will want to write some new content for your new keywords. What we are focusing on is keyword density. It is widely agreed upon by most seo “guys” that 5-7% is about as perfect as you can get and not sound spammy to “humans”. I say write for humans and use your keywords where it is appropriate. That’s what Google wants I assure you, and 1 day they will be able to find it. Basically put your keywords in the text 5 to 7 times for every 100 words…if it sounds right when you read it out loud. Part 2 to number two is simply this…Do step 1 every 4 days MINIMUM. DO IT EVERYDAY IF YOU CAN. If it is a standard html site then add a new page focused on individual keywords, if it is a blog then add a new post focused on individual keywords.

Those first 2 steps were “do it once” work you can do to help your sites ability to utilize Basic SEO and increase your SERPS results. This third step will basically LAUNCH your site into traffic, PageRank, Alexa Ranking, leads, and the reason your in business…PAYING CUSTOMERS. It is such a simple little 5 letter word you will learn to love and cherish…LINKS! Yes links, links are to websites what water and oxygen is to humans. Ahh, life. Yes life, that’s what links are to websites and the more the better.

Here’s the golden rule when obtaining “backlinks”, use your keyword or keyword phrase as the link text. This will tell Google and other search engines what your site, or page, is all about. You can get backlinks to your site in a variety of ways, commenting on blogs that are related to your niche, link swapping with other sites, or using online linking services such as (http)://www.linkserp.com/ or (http)://www.2mnymkrs.com/3waylinks.html

I highly recommend both of those services as they have helped my site achieve it’s goals in a very timely fashion. These 3 simple tips on website marketing have helped me greatly and I know they will help you too. I have many more internet marketing techniques planned for future articles.

Thanx for your time…Always strive to improve and success will follow David Knops DKWebsites LLC

Search Engine Optimization Link Popularity

Your sites link popularity is the main and most important factor when trying to improve your SEO campaign. You must focus on obtaining inbound links from quality and relevant sites. Several methods are submitting to link directories, reciprocal linking, article distribution, video blogging, forums and social bookmarking.

Using Keywords In The Meta And Title Tags

Second on our list is placing your keywords you are trying to obtain top rankings for within your title, description meta tag and keywords meta tag. In google SEO, your title tag only allows 8-9 words within the title tag for their search engine results. So limit yourself to 9 words (use as many as possible) and then move forward.

Time Your Web Site Has Been Indexed

Something that the search engines have placed a lot of emphasis on is “sandboxing” new sites on the internet. On average this process takes 3-4 months to get out of. The longer that your site is online the more trusted your site will be to the search engines. Ideally I believe a site is going to benefit most when it has been consistently indexed for 2 years or more.

Anchor Text Of Inbound Links

Even if you have a large number of inbound links, they won’t do a lot of good if they aren’t linked with good anchor text. Anchor text is the actual text that is clickable within the link. Keep links around 3-5 words long. Many search engine optimization experts believe bolding your links will improve rankings as well.

Link Popularity On Sub Pages

It is highly believed that sub pages within your web site must have inbound links and popularity for your entire site to succeed (including your home page). Even if you have a successful site right now, it could do even better with inbound links to sub pages.

Relevancy Of Inbound Links

Links coming to your web site must be coming from relevant sites with relevant content! This is extremely important.

Link Popularity Of Your Site Compared To Your Competitions

This is another seo factor that deems a lot of attention when it comes to google seo tips. You must make sure that you have comparable link popularity to your competition for certain key terms. Without comparable link popularity you simply won’t succeed as much as you want to.

Keyword Use In Your Pages Content

You must use your top key terms within the content of your web site. Certain key phrases can show tremendous growth by having the exact phrase within the content of your site itself. Google loves unique content and google loves relevancy.

How Popular Are The Sites That Are Linking To You – Are They Relevant?

Quality inbound links should come from recognized or semi popular to popular sites. These sites must also have similar content to your topic. If they come up high under your key terms, they are a great site. You should try to obtain links from these web sites.

Using Good Tools To Help With Search Engine Optimization or SEO?

You must perform research of key terms. I use google’s keyword tool personally, however there are many out there. Also I recommend using SEO programs to analyze your competition.

1) Find out what keywords are important to your business

The starting point for any successful search engine optimisation campaign is to start right at the beginning. Look at your marketplace and find out what your customers are searching for and which search engines are important to your business. Google, Yahoo and MSN are all essential considerations. Use the search engines to firstly find your competitors, secondly to look at the keywords and search terms they are organically marketing, and finally to use this information to create a list of keywords and search terms which are appropriate to your business. Once you have assembled a list the next stage is to find out if your keywords will perform at a high level. Each search engine offers tools which will help you to find out how popular a search term is. Use this information to create a definitive list, removing, adding and editing to maximise your keywords potential traffic levels.

2) Build your site navigation to maximise your exposure

The next stage of the Search engine optimisation process is to create a website category tree using your keyword list. Simply categorise your keyword list into groups and to split the groups into pages. Each category and page should have approximately 4-6 keywords associated to it. Use the category tree to build the navigation of your website.

3) Target the content of your site to your market

This simple stage makes complete sense. Content is the most important part of any successful Search engine optimisation campaign. By targeting you content to include the appropriate page and category keywords and search terms, you are enabling each of the search engines to view your sites content, understand subject matter, and list and index the page correctly under important keywords and search terms. By following this process, you will be in control of where and how your site appears within Google, Yahoo and MSN. This will help to maximise your sites exposure.

4) Write descriptive, keyword rich, page titles and meta data

To help maximise page search engine marketing and indexing it is essential to make sure your page titles and descriptions contain your on page keywords and search terms and are descriptive, selling the page to the user. Don’t forget traditional marketing, good content with a clear sales message will increase your conversion rates.

5) Make every page unique

Finally the more pages you have the more opportunities you have to appear under more keywords and search terms. Keep adding new pages to your site, target the pages to new markets, and make every page unique. Don’t duplicate content.

The next stage to maximising your site organic, search engine optimisation conversion will be to commence a link building campaign. This will need to be a combination of social media marketing, one way link building, article submission, directory submission and social media bookmarking.

Prior to adopting these SEO techniques, it is vital to understand that there are two types of techniques that can be employed to make it more visible over the Internet either black hat techniques or white hat techniques. Although black hat SEO techniques may initially improve your ranking, ultimately it leads to search engines identifying your non-authenticity and eliminating you from their listing. So, it is always wise to follow white hat SEO techniques to boost web traffic in the long term.

Here are top 8 white hat search engine optimisation techniques to boost web traffic thereby generating sales:

1) Content- As you would expect, content should play the most vital role in your engine marketing strategies. It is crucial to ensure that you add content that is worth viewing by the readers in order to attract heavy traffic. The page content of your website should be original, engaging and informative in order to demonstrate that you are providing trustworthy and unique information to you site users.

2) Incoming links- These incoming links are very crucial to have a good position in the popular search engines. The greater the number of incoming links your website has the greater the chances of your site being crawled regularly. It is vital to ensure that you are gaining keyword rich anchor text when building incoming links. One of the most effective and convenient ways to have quality links is to link to the other sites so that they can know about your particular site and provide you the benefit of a reciprocal link.

3) Website title and descriptions- It is crucial to have accurate and keyword rich website page titles and descriptions for each of your pages. The website titles contribute in letting the robots to understand and index the particular topic. Relevant titles and descriptions will also improve your click-through rates once you have obtained high search results.

4) Heading tags- When writing the copy for your website, it is best to add the heading tags in the flow and prominence of the content. The different categories of heading tags are the h1, h2 and h3 tags as per the importance and relevance of the tags and headings.

5) Key word meta tags: Adding keyword metatags is not as vital as it used to be in the old days but is still crawled by some search engines and it is still considered SEO best practice to include it.

6) Keyword density- It is essential to ensure that your site is equipped with the accurate keyword density on the web pages and site topics. Do not stuff the site with keywords.

7) Internal linking- A good internal web page linking strategy is crucial to help the robots to get the accurately classify the theme and reputation of your pages.

Site maps- Providing both a html and xml sitemap will ensure the search engines are able to crawl and therefore index your pages.

There are specific ways to ensure that each of these three different types of web presence is optimized to the extent that they will be picked up and listed by the top search engines. The biggest by far is Google with 65%, followed by Yahoo and then MSN, so it makes sense to optimize your web page for the Google algorithms.

Algorithms

An algorithm is a sequence of procedures for carrying out a statistical mathematical computation that ends up, in the case of Google and other search engines, with a list of web pages indexed in order of relevance to specific keywords, or search terms, used by search engine users to find out information.

All search engine listings for specific keywords are based upon these algorithms, that take many different aspects of the web page into account, and although only a few Google employees on a ‘need to know’ basis understand the factors involved, and the weightings that are given to each, we can work out some of the more important of them, although there are believed to be over 200 aspects of a web page that contribute to its listing position.

Important SEO Factors

1. Title Tag

The title tag is generally regarded as the one most important factor in determining your listing position. A simple change in the use of keywords in your title tag can dramatically change your listing position. You MUST use your main keyword for the page in your title tag, but the other text used within it can make a lot of difference.

The Title tag appears with in the HEAD tags of the page HTML, and therefore doesn’t actually appear on the page. It is visible to spiders only, and is a means of you telling the search engine spiders what your page is about. You must then use the keywords contained in the title tag in the body of your text, and in any headings and subheadings. Basically the title tag sets the theme that you must continue in the text that your readers actually see.

2. H1 Heading Tags

The H1 heading tag conveys a lot of weighting to the text within the tag. The heading of your page should be within H1 tags, but do not make your heading exactly the same as the page title. Make it close, but not as extensive.

For example, if your web page is dedicated to the use of articles as a marketing technique, your page Title tag (visible only to spiders) could be ‘Article Marketing and Article Writing Techniques’ while your main page heading (visible to spiders and readers) could be ‘Article Writing Techniques’, contained with H1 HTML tags, and in Bold and underlined. You could then have another heading using the keyword ‘Article Marketing’.

3. Use of Keywords

You have set the keyword theme with your Title and H1 heading tags. You must now continue that theme with the text on your page. Good SEO books such as SEOcious and websites such as SEO 2020 explain in detail how best to use keywords and how to structure your entire website to attract the attention of search engine spiders and of human visitors, and an article such as this cannot do the topic justice.

It is enough to say that the three major ways for you to inform search engine spiders of the theme of your web page is by means of your Title tag, H1 heading tags and your use of keywords on your page. All three of these should focus on one or two keyword, and if done properly will go a long way towards securing you a top 10 listing for your keyword on Google.

Why to do SEO? First it maximizes your web traffic because it’s the most visible in surfers’ search. The more visitors your website has the better your conversion rates and ROI are and thus the higher your profit is.

Next unlike paid marketing, organic marketing or SEO is much more cost effective. You won’t have to pay for the traffic or the clicks themselves. More than that, if you have time and knowledge, you can generate traffic yourself so your organic traffic can be completely free.

The matter relies on how to do SEO effectively to get the most out of it, which means you can get massive targeted traffic within your time and money budget. Some webmasters will opt to do everything themselves. However, they often get stuck half way being hopeless to wait for their website to get high rankings and the traffic to come.

The reasons can be simply either they are not aware of the latest Internet Marketing techniques which are being developed day by day by professional Internet Marketers, or they just aren’t doing them the correct ways. Another reason can be they don’t have that much time to manage and complete the SEO process and leave it undone without having any results yet.

For those reasons, most of online business owners nowadays choose to outsource to reliable Search Engine Optimizers (SEOs). Among the leading SEOs in the current market, Traffic Assistants can be considered the best with their core competency in exclusive internet marketing services provided by professional internet marketers.

PPC works this way. The search engine will list your ad once a keyword or a bunch of keywords are typed in, and these are called sponsored ads or links, which usually are much more prominent then the normal search results lists. When anyone clicks on them, you pay the search engine for driving traffic to your website.

No #1! You only pay for the people that are brought in, which means you control your costs and don’t pay for a promise of volume. Ranging from as low as 1 cent per click, it is an effective and cost controlling way to generate large amounts of volume.

No #2. You don’t even need to bid for the highest poll positions to get a large influx of volume. It’s all down to your keyword placements, headings and of course consumer decisions! You don’t have to bid for poll position, and this obsession into throwing money around like water is what gets my goat. You can make a greater profit even in the lower spots so strike a balance between expenses and results.

No #3! You have more than one way to leverage on PPC Search Engine marketing. Ranging from keywords based PPC to product engines and service engines, the ways and means you can use PPC to work for you can be highly scientific and specialised. Once you can formulate a channel and a method to get your message across to a targeted audience you will definitely see the profits roll in – with more than enough to offset the PPC charges.

No #4. With code like conversion tracking, you can actually FIND out what keywords are working and which are not. Just by adding a line or two to certain parts of your webpage (especially if you own the product you are selling), you would be surprised to find out which keywords convert almost immediately to immediate sales. In this way, you can increase bids on keywords that work.

All in all, there is a science to PPC marketing and with more and more innovation breaking ground on the topic on a daily basis, you have newer and more specific ways to manage your PPC search engine internet marketing tactics. In fact, I can just give you one reason why PPC search engine internet marketing is good – it’s making money for a lot of people already, so why not you?
