Newcomers to Internet Marketing – here are 10 Useful Tips to get you started
Internet

Needless to say the internet has clearly revolutionized our way of life. The whole world is now accessible at the click of a button. But for those wanting to be a part of it, it can still be an overwhelming challenge.

Below are 10 Tips for beginners to Internet Marketing…

1. Think positive Avoid negative individuals like the plague. Too many times I have heard people who have not yet started creating their own website howling “It is never going to work”! Use your time and efforts researching your interests and hobbies and find out exactly how they could be utilized in your website. Choosing a subject that you are interested in will help to keep you motivated in the long run.

2. Study the terminology It is important that you understand commonly used online marketing terms. Familiarize yourself with the following basic terms: affiliate, anchor text, Google Analytics, Alexa Rank, back links, blog, domain name, host, hyperlink, IP address, Keyword, Ezine articles, HTML. As you gain confidence you will extend your technical vocabulary.

3. Get the necessary skills Almost anyone who enters the online marketing world without the necessary skills will undoubtedly fail or spends months if not years of unnecessary sweating and struggling whilst desperately trying to figure it out.

Most people would not attempt to drive a car without firsttaking a few driving lessons! Internet marketing works on the same principle. Instead of “diving” head first, take time to learn basic skills. From how to upload you website to the web, to inserting links, videos, pictures, etc. There are thousands of cheap online courses available.

4. Inform as many people as possible about your website. Make sure you display your website URL in your emails, on your business cards, basically everywhere you can legally do so.

5. Utilize the correct Tools From helping you to do your research (Google AdWords tool, market samurai…) to uploading your website (filezilla, AceFTP) there are thousand of tools and resources available.

6. Make the most of the Freebies There are lots of FREE tools and resources online. From WordPress to create your blog or website to Google keyword tool to research your market! Before spending any money always do first a thorough search online for any free tools and resources you can find.

7. However all is not free…. Although internet marketing is relatively inexpensive, to function properly you will need to pay for web hosting (this is to have your website online) and invest in some tools like an autoresponder.

8. Choose the easy option – become an Affiliate Although you might have read lots of information about creating your own product, as a beginner it is much easier at first to sell someone else’s product. By becoming an affiliate you will be able to choose from a large number of online companies and rapidly start to promote their products.

9. Write quality content Fundamentally, you need to become an expert on the topic of your website. Sharing lots of rich information will produce the greatest results.

10. Ultimately Don’t give up – “Rome was not build in one day”. When I first tried to make my own website, I realized early on that there was a lot more to internet marketing than creating a beautiful website.

It is an ongoing process which involves keeping up to date with the latest trend and technologies.

15 Tips to Optimize Your Blog for Search Engine Optimization
Blogging

Blog SEO is one of the most effective way to build automated traffic to your blog. You might have learn some basic SEO strategy, but have you heard that blog has a very different way that allows you to get your blog on the first page very quick and easy.

Most blogger will rush to build backlinks, but they will discover ranking is hard and struggling because they have forgotten to do some “On-Blog Optimization” that would help them to get to the first page few times quicker. These On-Blog Optimization are:

1. Use Domain Name That Contain Keywords

Domain name gives you a huge advantage to get to the first page on the search engines. I’ve seen websites that have only few links that rank higher than sites which have hundreds of backlinks. The difference is just these sites domain name contain their keywords. This makes the search engine thinks that the domain name is dedicated to show only contents about the keyword.

2. Does Your Blog Title Contain Keywords?

Type keywords in your blog title. When the blog title is your keywords, the h1 tag and title tag on your blog will become your keywords. Each page of your blog will link back to the main page of your blog with the keywords too. All of these gives you extra SEO benefits to your blog.

3. Does Your Tagline Contain Keywords?

Every WordPress blog’s general setting, you’ll realize something below your blog title called ‘Tagline’ or description in other blog platform. Tagline is another important location to type your keywords. Make sure get it done.

4. Do You Miss Out Ping?

Ping is a important function of each wordpress blog will have. Everytime you publish a new article, your blog will ping itself to inform few websites you’ve created new information on your blog. Ping also helps to inform search engines you updated new information on your blog. Search engines like websites and blogs that update themselves frequently because they offer their users up-to-date and quality information. Search engine will usually rank your blog high if you ping often. Remember to import more ping services in your setting.

5. Are You Using Duplicated Contents?

Beware of duplicated content on your blog. Try not to reuse your own or others’ content on your blog. Reusing same content doesn’t help in ranking because search engines don’t index many pages that contain the same content because it might annoy their users and it might be a way to avoid spammers to increase their page by duplicating same contents.

6. Applying The Technique Of Keyword Density

Do you mention your keywords in your blog? Repeat your keywords often. Try to keep your density of keywords above 2% and below 7%. It means you got to have keyword you aim for 3 to 6 times in every 100 words you wrote. The more often you use the keywords in your post, the more the search engines thinking your blog is relevant to the keywords. Many people already aware of this method, this makes some internet marketer stuff keywords in their page. Google penalize page that overuse this method. Try to keep it below 7%.

7. Relevant Keywords

Since many people discover the keyword density method, Search engines have created a different algorithm that can judge websites’ content by the amount of relevant keywords. If you are using Wordtracker or Google Keyword Tool, these tool is able to give you many other keywords that are related to the keywords you aim for. Use some of them in your articles too. For example, you’ll see “pimple” and “blackhead” as related keywords when you search for acne.

8. Speed Blogging

If you post a new articleon your blog 3 times a day on your blog or more, Google think that your blog have the latest news about a topic and always provide fresh contents. As a result, you’ll rank easier. If you have a new blog, start posting once every 3 days and increase your post to once a day after 1 month. If your blog has been there for certain period, it’s up to you.

9. Page Volume

Another tip many Black Hat SEO trick users know is increasing the vloume of webpages. However, we try to do it in a white hat approach by posting more new articles. The more pages your blog has, the more content rich and informational the search engines think your blog is. As a result, your blog will be ranked higher.

10. Is Your Page Long Enough?

Publish posts have contain more than 250 words to get your page indexed quicker and stay in Google longer. As I mentioned, there’re many spammers who use the technique of increasing blog page quantity to manipulate search results. They might simply use a few words to publish a page. Search engines have ways to calculate the words to ensure it doesn’t happen.

11. What Sites Are You Linking To?

Do you know that your blog will get lower ranking if you link to a spam site or bad site? It is the same the other way round. If you link to a high authority site, your blog will have a higher ranking too. I haven’t did any experiment to prove it yet but I am a strong believer of this concept.

12. Interlinking

Is your blog posts linking to each other? Interlinking is a tip many internet marketers apply to increase Blog SEO traffic from keywords you don’t aim for. Although backlinks from the same site is not as good as backlinks from other websites, they are useful in ranking too especially you are able to have it done automatically with blogs. Use “Similar Post” plugin and create links to your popular posts at your sidebar.

13. Change Title Tags On Each Of Your Posts

Another tip to get more search engine traffic from untargeted keywords, it’s crucial to have the title tags of each of your blog post start with the post title first. You can use a free plugin called “All In One SEO Pack Plugin” that will do this automatically.

14. Create SEO Friendly URLs

The url of each of your blog post will not contain any keywords which people would search in the search engines in it by defaul. It might be something such as http://your-blog.com/?p=123. To make each of your blog posts more seo friendly, it is important to change your blog’s url to keywords. You can go to the blog’s settings and customize the permalink into “/%category%/%postname%”. This permalink structure will turn change the url of your post into urls that have the words in your post title.

15. Does Your Blog Has A Map?

Having a sitemap on your blog will definitely help you to rank faster because robot bots from Google could only crawl certain amounts of links. If your blog has a good sitemap that allows the bots to crawl your blog easily, more pages will get indexed and continue to get a lot of traffic from the search engine. But creating your own sitemap requires

10 Blog Traffic Tips
Blogging

Maybe a few days later you received a few hits when you told your sister, father, girlfriend and
best friend about your new blog but that”s about as far you went when it comes to finding readers.

Here are the top 10 techniques new bloggers can use to find readers.

These are tips specifically for new bloggers, those people who have next-to-no audience at the
moment and want to get the ball rolling.

It helps if you work on this list from top to bottom as each technique builds on the previous step to
help you create momentum. Eventually once you establish enough momentum you gain what is
called “traction”, which is a large enough audience base (about 500 readers a day is good) that you
no longer have to work too hard on finding new readers.

Instead your current loyal readers do the work for you through word of mouth.Top 10 Tips

10. Write at least five major “pillar” articles. A pillar article is usually a tutorial style article aimed to
teach your audience something. Generally they are longer than 500 words and have lots of very
practical tips or advice.

This article you are currently reading could be considered a pillar article since it is very practical
and a good “how-to” lesson. This style of article has long term appeal, stays current
(it isn”t news or time dependent) and offers real value and insight.

The more pillars you have on your blog the better.

9. Write one new blog post per day minimum.

Not every post has to be a pillar, but you should work on getting those five pillars done at the same
time as you keep your blog fresh with a daily news or short article style post. The important thing
here is to demonstrate to first time visitors that your blog is updated all the time so they feel that if
they come back tomorrow they will likely find something new.

This causes them to bookmark your site or subscribe to your blog feed. You don”t have to produce
one post per day all the time but it is important you do when your blog is brand new.

Once you get traction you still need to keep the fresh content coming but your loyal audience will
be more forgiving if you slow down to a few per week instead. The first few months are critical so
the more content you can produce at this time the better.

8. Use a proper domain name. If you are serious about blogging be serious about what you call
your blog. In order for people to easily spread the word about your blog you need an easily
rememberable domain name.

People often talk about blogs they like when they are speaking to friends in the real world
(that”s the offline world, you remember that place right?) so you need to make it easy for them
to spread the word and pass on your URL.

Try and get a .com if you can and focus on small easy to remember domains rather than worry
about having the correct keywords (of course if you can get great keywords and easy to remember
then you”ve done a good job!).

7. Start commenting on other blogs. Once you have your pillar articles and your daily fresh smaller
articles your blog is ready to be exposed to the world. One of the best ways to find the right type of
reader for your blog is to comment on other people”s blogs.

You should aim to comment on blogs focused on a similar niche topic to yours since the readers
there will be more likely to be interested in your blog.

Most blog commenting systems allow you to have your name/title linked to your blog when you
leave a comment. This is how people find your blog. If you are a prolific commentor and always
have something valuable to say then people will be interested to read more of your work and
hence click through to visit your blog.

6. Trackback and link to other blogs in your blog posts. A trackback is sort of like a blog
conversation. When you write a new article to your blog and it links or references another
blogger”s article you can do a trackback to their entry.

What this does is leave a truncated summary of your blog post on their blog entry – it”s sort of like
your blog telling someone else”s blog that you wrote an article mentioning them. Trackbacks
often appear like comments.

This is a good technique because like leaving comments a trackback leaves a link from another
blog back to yours for readers to follow, but it also does something very important – it gets the
attention of another blogger.

The other blogger will come and read your post eager to see what you wrote about them. They
may then become a loyal reader of yours or at least monitor you and if you are lucky some time
down the road they may do a post linking to your blog bringing in more new readers.

5. Encourage comments on your own blog. One of the most powerful ways to convince someone
to become a loyal reader is to show there are other loyal readers already following your work. If
they see people commenting on your blog then they infer that your content must be good since
you have readers so they should stick around and see what all the fuss is about.

To encourage comments you can simply pose a question in a blog post. Be sure to always
respond to comments as well so you can keep the conversation going.

4. Submit your latest pillar article to a blog carnival. A blog carnival is a post in a blog that
summarizes a collection of articles from many different blogs on a specific topic. The idea is to
collect some of the best content on a topic in a given week. Often many other blogs link back to
a carnival host and as such the people that have articles featured in the carnival enjoy a spike
in new readers.

To find the right blog carnival for your blog, do a search at http://blogcarnival.com/.

3. Submit your blog to blogtopsites.com. To be honest this tip is not going to bring in a flood of
new readers but it”s so easy to do and only takes five minutes so it”s worth the effort. Go to Blog
Top Sites, find the appropriate category for your blog and submit it.

You have to copy and paste a couple of lines of code on to your blog so you can rank and then sit
back and watch the traffic come in. You will probably only get 1-10 incoming readers per day with
this technique but over time it can build up as you climb the rankings. It all helps!

2. Submit your articles to ArticleBase.com. This is another tip that doesn”t bring in hundreds of
new visitors immediately (although it can if you keep doing it) but it”s worthwhile because you
simply leverage what you already have – your pillar articles. Once a week or so take one of your
pillar articles and submit it to ArticleBase.com.

Your article then becomes available to other people who can republish your article on their
website or in their newsletter. How you benefit is through what is called your “Resource
Box”.

You create your own resource box which is like a signature file where you include one to two
sentences and link back to your website (or blog in this case). Anyone who publishes your
article has to include your resource box so you get incoming links. If someone with a large
newsletter publishes your article you can get a lot of new readers at once.

1. Write more pillar articles. Everything you do above will help you to find blog readers however all
of the techniques I”ve listed only work when you have strong pillars in place. Without them if you
do everything above you may bring in readers but they won”t stay or bother to come back.

Aim for one solid pillar article per week and by the end of the year you will have a database of
over 50 fantastic feature articles that will work hard for you to bring in more and more readers.

Warmly,
Gary Neame

From my past blog teaching experienced, Not many people have the right concept of blogging with blog, they started blogging and thinking that with an hour or two a day they can become famous and earn several thousand dollars a month or more. I advocate part-time blogging with a successful blog for a full-time income, but that is not an overnight outcome. If you think it will happen to you within a week, a month, you are going to be disappointed.

Please remember each blog post does not have to be in lenghth. It can be as little as one to two paragraphs. Keep in mind that whatever you post should be valuable to the user and elicit a response.

Don’t Be Afraid To Write Blog Post Writing your own content is the best decision when blogging. Blog readers prefer conversational blog posts more than salesy or info posts where you can see most of the succesful blog have it. When you are merging content, don’t be afraid to re-write parts.

Be An Active Blogger For Your Blog Blog Frequently, at least a few times per week. The biggest mistake made by bloggers is to let weeks or even months go by without blogging. If your blog is not being updated it will no longer be considered “sweet” to the search engines, by that I mean it will be considered a “dead” blog and SEs won’t visit your blog as often.

Research Is Very Important (Stealing Idea) Research the most popular or successful blog within your topic or category, you can use google search engine or any others search engines or blog directories for your research. Look at what they are doing and try to model their sucess without copying exactly.

Keep Getting Links To Your Blog You may aware that most successful blog has great ranking. You need to build more backlink to you blog, you may add your links to the internet directories to gain more backlines, or you may consider to add your blog in 3-ways link network as what I did to get automatically 250 quality and relavent backlink to each of your blog upto blogs, although it does require a small pay amount, but its worth and save your time from building link your own in effective way.

Always Know Your Traffic and Optimize Monitor your blog stats to see where your traffic is originating. It is important that you use a web stats program that can show you how many people are “bookmarking” your site. A good bookmark ratio is a good sign that people are interested in your blog and have plans on re-visiting it.
