			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>10 Costly Search Engine Mistakes to Avoid</p>
<p>If you have a website then you already know the importance of traffic. Traffic is to Internet marketing as location is to real estate. It&#8217;s the only thing that really matters. If you cannot generate targeted visitors to your site, you will not make any sales.<br />
Usually the owner or designer of the website is the person designated to drive traffic to the site. The chief ingredient in generating traffic is the search engine. Of coarse, you can use advertising, but it&#8217;s going to cost you. Using the search engines to generate targeted (interested in your product) traffic is the least expensive method known.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, many website owners do not understand the importance of search engine visibility, which leads to traffic. They place more importance on producing a &#8220;pretty&#8221; website. Not that this is bad, but it is really secondary to search engine placement. Hopefully, the following list of common mistakes, made by many website owners, will help you generate more targeted traffic to your site&#8230;after all, isn&#8217;t that what you want.</p>
<p>1. Not using keywords effectively.</p>
<p>This is probably one of the most critical area of site design. Choose the right keywords and potential customers will find your site. Use the wrong ones and your site will see little, if any, traffic.</p>
<p>2. Repeating the same keywords.</p>
<p>When you use the same keywords over and over again (called keyword stacking) the search engines may downgrade (or skip) the page or site.</p>
<p>3. Robbing pages from other websites.</p>
<p>How many times have you heard or read that &#8220;this is the Internet and it&#8217;s ok&#8221; to steal icons and text from websites to use on your site. Don&#8217;t do it. Its one thing to learn from others who have been there and another to outright copy their work. The search engines are very smart and usually detect page duplication. They may even prevent you from ever being listed by them.</p>
<p>4. Using keywords that are not related to your website.</p>
<p>Many unethical website owners try to gain search engine visibility by using keywords that have nothing at all to do with their website. They place unrelated keywords in a page (such as &#8220;sex&#8221;, the name of a known celebrity, the hot search topic of the day, etc.) inside a meta tag for a page. The keyword doesn&#8217;t have anything to do with the page topic. However, since the keyword is popular, they think this will boost their visibility. This technique is considered spam by the search engines and may cause the page (or sometimes the whole site) to be removed from the search engine listing.</p>
<p>5. Keyword stuffing.</p>
<p>Somewhat like keyword stacking listed above, this means to assign multiple keywords to the description of a graphic or layer that appears on your website by using the &#8220;alt=&#8221; HTML parameter. If the search engines find that this text does not really describe the graphic or layer it will be considered spam.</p>
<p>6. Relying on hidden text.</p>
<p>You might be inclined to think that if you cannot see it, it doesn&#8217;t hurt. Wrong&#8230;. Do not try to hide your keywords or keyword phrases by making them invisible. For example, some unethical designers my set the keywords to the same color as the background of the web page; thereby, making it invisible.</p>
<p>7. Relying on tiny text.</p>
<p>This is another version of the item above (relying on hidden text). Do not try to hide your keywords or keyword phrases by making them tiny. Setting the text size of the keywords so small that it can barely be seen does this.</p>
<p>8. Assuming all search engines are the same.</p>
<p>Many people assume that each search engine plays by the same rules. This is not so. Each has their own rule base and is subject to change anytime they so desire. Make it a point to learn what each major search engine requires for high visibility.</p>
<p>9. Using free web hosting.</p>
<p>Do not use free web hosting if you are really serious about increasing site traffic via search engine visibility. Many times the search engines will eliminate content from these free hosts.</p>
<p>10. Forgetting to check for missing web page elements.</p>
<p>Make sure to check every page in your website for completeness, like missing links, graphics, etc. There are sites on the web that will do this for free.</p>
<p>This is just a few of the methods and techniques that you should avoid. Do not give in to the temptation that these methods will work for you. They will do more harm than good for your website.</p>
<p>Not only will you spend weeks of wasted effort, you may have your site banned from the search engines forever. Invest a little time to learn the proper techniques for increasing search engine visibility and your net traffic will increase.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Designing sites for search engines and directories.<br />
In terms of layout, many web sites are not designed for optimum search engine and directory visibility. People or companies seem so centred on their corporate or personal images, products, and services that they neglect to design their web sites with search engines and directories in mind. Search engines and directories vary in the way they rank your web site in a search query. Some search engines place primary emphasis on the text within your title tags. Some search engines place emphasis on the main ideas presented in all of your text on a single web page. Some directories emphasize the text you submitted in their &#8220;Description&#8221; field. How and where you place your text, both in the copy your visitors see and within the HTML tags your visitors do not see, will affect your ranking</p>
<p>Keyword selection<br />
Keyword placement<br />
Keyword frequency<br />
Links &amp; architecture<br />
Site statistics</p>
<p>Keyword Selection</p>
<p>Of primary importance is selecting the best keywords for your industry and the keywords you believe your potential customers will use to find you. Selecting the right keywords requires research.</p>
<p>Look at your company&#8217;s printed materials. What words do you use over and over? When you speak to new and current customers on the phone, what questions do they frequently ask and what words do they use? Ask your current customers how they would find you on the Internet. Then go to the major search engines and directories. Type in the keywords you want to use. Study the source code of the web sites that appeared in the top 20. Look at how your competitors ranked in a search query. Adjust your keyword selection accordingly.</p>
<p>Keyword placement</p>
<p>Of equal importance is keyword placement on individual pages. The text in your title tag is one the most important elements for ranking well in search engines. The text in your titles should be descriptive, using the words and lingo in your industry, and should accurately reflect the contents of each web page.</p>
<p>For optimum search engine positions, your keywords need to appear at the top of your web pages. Thus, before you design your web page, ask yourself if you (or your web designer) have strategically placed your keywords within your title tags, meta-tags, headings, graphic images, and the first paragraph within your body tag. If not, you might need to rethink your site design.</p>
<p>Keyword Frequency</p>
<p>What is important to both the search engines and your target audience is keyword frequency and keyword prominence. Designing and coding your site with keywords in the right locations and the right frequency is an art form. Keywords need to appear frequently on your web pages, but if they appear too frequently, your site will be penalized for word stacking (also known as &#8220;spamming the index&#8221;) or could be removed permanently from the index.</p>
<p>Also, some search engines ignore meta-tags. Thus, if you have included your keywords in your meta-tags but have not placed them elsewhere, you have missed a huge target audience, namely AOL users. Sites with frames have problems being indexed well because there is little opportunity otherwise to include additional text with keywords.</p>
<p>Very, very few web sites can get in the Top 10 of all the major search engines (AltaVista, FAST Search, HotBot, Google, Lycos, Teoma) without spamming. We cannot emphasize this enough: if you hire anyone (a submission service, an individual, an online promotion service, etc.) to do the services we just described, they need to have HTML and design experience, online marketing, and excellent copy writing skills. You do not want your web site to be permanently banned from a search engine or directory due to ignorance or lack of experience. Furthermore, submission services usually do just that: submit. Many do not perform keyword research, the HTML coding, and copy writing necessary to get a site optimally placed within the search engines. Ask a lot of questions before handing over any money.</p>
<p>Links &amp; site architecture</p>
<p>Placing keywords throughout your web pages is useless as a search engine marketing strategy if the search engine spiders are unable to record the text on your web pages. Therefore, always have a link architecture (also known as a site map) on your site that the search engine spiders can follow. Oftentimes, this means having two forms of navigation on your site: one that your target audience prefers, and one for the search engines.</p>
<p>Site Statistics</p>
<p>For the first few months after you have your web site submitted to the major search engines and directories, you should see a jump in traffic. If you look at your site reports with your visitor statistics, which should do frequently, you will see when the search engines spider and index your site.</p>
<p>Hopefully, because you have been thoughtful enough to give potential customers a reason to return to your site again and again, people will bookmark your site, and your web statistics will show an increase in a &#8220;No Referrer&#8221; category under referral URL&#8217;s. Your site reports should show you where your potential customers are coming from (i.e. which search engine or directory they used to find you) and which keywords they used to find you.</p>
<p>After your site has listed in the search engines and directories for a few months, review your site statistics and determine where the majority of your traffic comes from. Then focus your advertising efforts on those directories and search engines. You get better sales from targeted marketing than from spreading your net too wide.</p>
<p>One client did exactly what we recommended, from keyword selection to monitoring site statistics. They found most of their sites referral traffic came from Yahoo queries. They bought banner space from Yahoo for two months. Whenever two of their keywords were typed in a search query, their banner would appear. Their traffic increased over 500%, and their sales reached five figures per month.</p>
<p>Lastly, the saying &#8220;Content is King&#8221; still rings true. You can increase traffic to your web site, but if (1) people do not like what they see, (2) you do not offer potential customers what they want to buy, or (3) you do not give customers incentive to stay and/or bookmark your site, they will click off of your web site as quickly as they clicked on to it.</p>

No one can find your website! You need to get listed in the major search engines in order to get visitors to visit your website.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>3 Steps To Getting Listed In The Search Engines</p>
<p>1. Write an article related to the main topic of your website.</p>
<p>Not sure if you know&#8230;</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve just finished putting in all kinds of effort towards getting your website online. You&#8217;re ready to take orders and make sales. The only problem is&#8230; No one can find your website! You need to get listed in the major search engines in order to get visitors to visit your website. What can you do? Follow these 3 steps and the search engines will know about your site in no time at all.</p>
<p>1. Write an article related to the main topic of your website.</p>
<p>Not sure if you know enough about writing to write an article? Don&#8217;t worry about being perfect. Write about what you know. Keep the article short, between 300-600 words long. When you write the article, give out general information that anyone would gladly post on their site as valuable content. Don&#8217;t try to sell your product or service in this article.</p>
<p>Remember the goal of the article is for you to get a valuable link back to your website, not to make a sale. In fact, if you try to make a sale in the article, most webmasters will not want to publish your article on their site. The whole goal of writing articles is to get your articles on as many websites as possible with a link pointing back to your site.</p>
<p>2. Include a resource box at the end of the article with your website link in it.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve created a good general information article that is relevant to the topic of your website, you are ready to create your resource box. Keep in mind here to get to the point quickly. It is usually considered fine to promote your product or service in this resource box but it is necessary to keep it short. You should remember that the main point of including this resource box is to get a link going back to your website. The secondary purpose of the resource box is to get readers of your article to click through and visit your website.</p>
<p>When including a link in your resource box, make sure that one of your links includes the main keywords of your home page. Keywords are a fancy term for the phrase or words a visitor will type in to find your website. Make the keyword the clickable portion of the link instead of your web address. Put this keyword text in between your html anchor link.</p>
<p>3. Submit your article to the major article directories.</p>
<p>Once you&#8217;ve created your article, submit it to the major article directories to get the article distributed on as many websites as possible. Some major article directories include EzineArticles, ArticleCity, &lt;a href=&#8221;http://www.zapcontent.com&#8221;&gt;ZapContent.com&lt;/a&gt; and Isnare. Some services like Isnare will even distribute your article for you for a fee.</p>
<p>Do these three steps and search engines will find, crawl, then list your website in their listings. It&#8217;s as simple as that!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A Guide To Organic SEO And Its Benefits</p>
<p>What Is Organic SEO?</p>
<p>Put in the simplest manner possible, organic SEO is search engine optimization done manually using no black hat methods, no underhand methods and no automated scripting. It is the purest form of optimizing your website for the benefit of search engines, while still retaining interest for your site visitors, and done well it is exactly the thing that search engines are looking for in a website. Once they find it they will reward your site with better rankings and improved positions within the search engine results pages. Throughout the course of this article it will be referred to as simply SEO.</p>
<p>Understanding The Search Engines</p>
<p>Understanding Search Engines and their general concept is vital to the use of effective SEO methods. Search engines enable their visitors to enter a specific word or term, known as keywords. Once submitted, all pages containing those keywords that can be found in the search engine’s directory are listed on the search engine result pages. Each page is “ranked” according to relevancy, popularity and a few other factors. Therefore, in theory, the more relevant a page is to a given keyword the more likely it will appear at the top of the listings.</p>
<p>Introducing The Search Engine Spiders</p>
<p>Another important factor to remember about search engines is that they don’t use real people to crawl the billions of websites and judge how relevant they are. Instead they use automated software called a “spider” or a “bot” that does this work much quicker. The calculations that the search engine uses to determine the ranking of a website are called algorithms and in the case of the major search engines like Google, Yahoo and MSN these algorithms are changed on a regular basis. The changes and the specifics of the algorithms are not released to the public in order to prevent black hat SEOs from manipulating their sites to reach the top of the pile despite containing to information relevant to the search query or keyword.</p>
<p>Optimizing For Search Engines – Optimizing For Visitors</p>
<p>Of course to some extent, all of us reading this article are probably guilty of altering our web pages to meet the whims of search engines but it must be done in a positive and organic way. We understand that optimizing a page purely for the benefit of search engines spiders may massively detract from the actual value of the site to your visitors. Search engines understand this too, hence the evolution of the algorithms. With each new algorithm created and usually patented by search engines like Google, we are getting closer to a structure whereby sites are genuinely judged on their value to visitors. It may sound like an Isaac Asimov novel but the algorithms and the spiders are basically becoming more human like.</p>
<p>Basic Components Of SEO</p>
<p>The actual methods of optimizing your website are saved for another article, but the basic components of an SEO campaign are broken down into on page and off page optimization techniques. On page SEO includes factors like keyword inclusion, content optimization, page structure etc… whereas the main contributing factor of off page optimization is inbound links. There are many different factors to each of these areas and different SEOs will give you varying information on which factors are the most relevant to gain higher rankings. These extensive differences in opinion occur because nobody is certain of the algorithm criteria.</p>
<p>The Benefits Of SEO</p>
<p>SEO is probably the most beneficial way to conduct Internet promotion. It is highly cost effective, can yield long term results and the leads it generates are opt in and targeted. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t consider trying out alternative methods of advertising your site. For many, banner advertisements, press releases (can actually be used as part of an SEO campaign as well), PPC campaigns and sponsored listings prove to highly beneficial and including these will help your site’s popularity.</p>
<p>To Cost Effectiveness And To Life</p>
<p>The cost effectiveness is easily determined when you look at the potential of an SEO campaign compared to the method that many consider to be the next best thing – PPC. A PPC campaign will usually cost you anywhere upward of 5 cents per visitor generated. This means that for every thousand visitors you receive you will have paid $50. Some fairly basic SEO work on a web site containing ten pages will generate this kind of traffic on a monthly basis relatively quickly.</p>
<p>$50 doesn’t sound much but consider that you pay this in one month to receive the desired one thousand visitors. Over the space of a year you will have paid $600, and so on. Now consider that you are competing for a relatively competitive keyword and you find that you need to be paying a minimum of 50 cents per click to generate just the one thousand clicks in a month. All of a sudden you’re paying $6000 per year and you are still only getting one thousand clicks every month. $6000 will buy you an awful lot of SEO work and you should find that within a few months you are generating a lot more traffic using SEO.</p>
<p>Targeted Leads</p>
<p>Targeted leads are the best type of leads you can generate. It means that the visitors to your site are already predisposed to the basic topic of your site and are interested in what you have to say. It means that they will be more likely to purchase goods or services from your site, click on affiliate links or click Google ads to earn you revenue. Because SEO leads are physically searching for the topic that your site relates to you are guaranteed that they are interested in whatever you’re offering. First of all they search using keywords relevant to your site. They then read the description and name of your site and this further compounds their interest in the page in question and click on the link. Already they have become highly susceptible to the message of your web page.</p>
<p>So Remember…</p>
<p>SEO is a webmaster’s greatest tool but treated badly it can quickly blow up in your face. By ensuring you stick to the very letter of the law and do not use any underhand methods you should soon benefit from powerful leads that will frequent your site and earn you revenue.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>5 Tips For Improving Your Site’s Search Engine Positioning</p>
<p>Almost all webmasters or website owners are looking for ways to get better results from their websites. They wish to improve their site’s standing and get better rankings in search engines. This quest for improved results, known as search engine positioning, can be satisfied by following a few basic procedures.</p>

<p>Almost all webmasters or website owners are looking for ways to get better results from their websites. They wish to improve their site’s standing and get better rankings in search engines. This quest for improved results, known as search engine positioning, can be satisfied by following a few basic procedures.</p>
<p>Before you even begin, you have to realize that you are competing against hundreds, and in some categories, thousands of websites offering similar products and services. In the case of affiliate marketing, many of the competing websites may even be identical! If you want to get the edge over these competitors and improve your search engine positioning you have to fine-tune your website and actively work to make it better.</p>
<p>1. Make Sure that your design is search engine friendly:</p>
<p>Your design may look good to your eyes, but it may also be the cause of you present difficulties and poor search engine positioning. How is that possible? Look at your web page using a text editor or the html view of popular editors such as Dreamweaver and Frontpage. On what line does your first line of copy begin? If your actual copy is pushed far down the page, it is more difficult for search engines to pick up the crucial information that would have helped you to improve your web page ranking.</p>
<p>If you have this difficulty, first take out all unnecessary spaces in the html code. If there are long strings of java script, put these in external files. Similarly, put style information in external Cascading Style Sheet files. Simplifying your table structure may also help. If this starts getting too complicated for you, then consult with a professional search engine positioning specialist or your web designer.</p>
<p>2. Make sure your keywords are strategically placed in your copy:</p>
<p>It is not possible to improve web page ranking if the readable copy on your web page does not contain the words you wish to be found by. Many people erroneously think that just putting your important keywords in meta tags is enough. This is not true, some search engines hardly use the meta tags and look more to the copy on the page. Make sure that your important copy is in the first paragraph of text, in headlines (using headers such as H1, H2, H3) and in the active or clickable portions of link text on your page.</p>
<p>3. Use a site map and text link navigation on your pages:</p>
<p>If you want to improve your search engine positioning for all the pages of your website then you have to be sure that these pages actually get indexed or included in the search engines. You can help this process along by making a site map, a web page that has text links to all the sub pages of your site. Another good practice is to include a text link navigation system on your web pages, even if you already have a graphics based navigation bar elsewhere on these same pages. Remember, search engines follow text links more easily. A robot that lands on your main page or site map page will follow the text links and then visit and index your lower level pages.</p>
<p>4. Increase the quantity and quality of inbound links:</p>
<p>In fiercely competitive categories it will be difficult to improve web page ranking without obtaining a good number of links to your page from other websites. If you have very good and valuable copy, other sites may link to you because you are a valuable resource. However, if you want to speed this process along you will have to actively request links from other websites, either by trading links or by getting your content (with a link back to your site) placed on other websites.<br />
When it comes to links you should keep in mind one important principle: it is not the quantity of links that is important, but the quality. One good link from an authority site such as CNN or Wikipedia is worth more than dozens of links from other sites. To get these quality links, there is no short cut. You will have to earn it by having a site that provides a lot of useful information.</p>
<p>5. Keep up with Search Engine Developments:</p>
<p>The challenge of improving your web page ranking and search engine positioning is dynamic. Search engines are not static. Most of the big search engines of yesterday have disappeared or are only minor players today. You should keep up with changes in the world of search engines by taking part in online forums or subscribing to newsletters which deal with topics such as search engine optimization, web ranking, and general webmaster related issues.</p>
<p>For years I have been getting great information from the Led Digest, a subscription list which is sent out several times a week. You can see samples online at www.led-digest.com</p>
<p>If you do not have the expertise or the time to tackle these matters by yourself then you should take advantage of skilled professionals who can help you to improve your site&#8217;s performance in search engines. Whether you rely on professionals or are able to do it yourself, these five tips can provide a good point of reference for starting the work.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What You Need To Know About Autoresponders</p>
<p>The Internet is a great place for business these days.  There are hundreds of thousands of companies on the Internet, eagerly anticipating your business.  With most companies dealing with hundreds and hundreds of customers on a daily basis, some wonder how they do it.  When you break down the basics, you’ll see that most use autoresponders – very nifty tools that can help you with a variety of tasks.</p>
<p>Once you have an autoresponder set up on your website, you can make money even if you aren’t there.  You can be out with your family or doing other things, while your autoresponder draws visitors to your website and makes you some money.  Normally, people don’t buy anything on their first or second visit to a website.  Most like to shop around, compare, and find the best deal for their money.  Autoresponders can be thought of as cheap salesman – as they will follow up your potential customers and keep their interest sparked.</p>
<p>When someone visitors your website and likes what they see, they will normally sign up on your customer list.  If you don’t have a customer list, you should invest in one immediately.  A customer, or opt-in list, is the heart and soul of your company.  This list will contain each and every one of your customers, and is also the main database for an autoresponder.</p>
<p>Autoresponders can be used to send out preset messages anytime you wish. One of the best on the net is www.automatic-responder.com they offer a free trial account. They can inform your customers of news, upcoming products, and answer most questions.  Autoresponders can be thought of as salesman, as they will let customers know about products, what features the products have, and how the customer will benefit from using the product.  On top of that, autoresponders will also keep your customers up to date and follow up with them to ensure that they feel special.</p>
<p>Simply having a website isn’t enough these days.  There are millions and millions of websites out there on the Internet, hundreds of which are offering the same products and services that you are.  You have plenty of competition, no matter what you may be offering.  To succeed this day and age, you’ll be stand out among the rest and offer your customers more than competitors.  Having the edge over your competition means you’ll get more traffic – which results in more sales.</p>
<p>Although autoresponders can help you a great deal, they can’t do it all themselves.  They will handle virtually all of your email related tasks, help you gain traffic, and keep your customers informed with everything going on in your company.  To get the most from your autoresponder, you’ll need to make sure you use it every chance you get.  They are very handy programs – and can make your business life easier than ever before if you let them.</p>
