I forget, as do we all, that we don’t all know the same things we think we all do … mmmmm….
Someone asked me what a blog was, and that’s a damn fine question because the answer is not what it seems … read on …
A blog is a ‘web log’. It’s a text editor that doesn’t necessarily use html and allows you to post a comment, article, blurb, picture, video onto a web site. The website itself keeps a running commentary of all the posts and comments.
They’re indexed very fast by the search engines for ‘political’ reasons. You see, blogs use syndicated content … they PUSH the content out. Websites sit there and wait for a visitor who PULLS the content to themselves. Search engines very actively index blogs because they want the content in their index, so you don’t goto the blog feeds to get the content. It’s a chase game. Sorta Rock / Paper / Scissors challenge.
Blogs are the biggest threat to search engine dominance … so, what does one do with one’s enemy …. keep your friends close, and your enemies closer …

Hey, this is a hardcore business. I’m not here to make friends, I’m here to make money. So, ‘obstacles’ like the CAN-SPAM law and the National DNC (Do Not Call) registry are just that … obstacles …
Get around them. Buy a cheap domain name from namecheap.com and setup a landing page. Drive your leads via phone and email to the landing page. Gotta gimme your name and email to go further … If you don’t wanna do that … well, pardner, C-YA.
Once you have the name and email, you have an opt-in list. Simple.
Oh yeah, when you buy that disposable domain name … get privacy protection from domainsbyproxy.com … well worth whatever they charge. After all, no point in letting the freaks know who you are.
Oh yeah, one more … www.k7.net … free voicemail … hint, don’t return calls to nutcases
need leads, get them here

Picking the right keywords can make or break your website. The best ones give you profitable rankings that pour in cash. While, the bad ones leave your pages lost among millions of others.
All of the work you put into it, lost. That’s why keyword research is so important. The problem is that it often takes a lot of work… and when it’s all said and done, you never know exactly if you picked the right keywords.
But, there’s one technique that stands out to quickly find the best keywords… and that’s to look at the keywords your competitors have already researched.
However, this takes forever when you’re researching more than a few keywords. If you a large amount, then you need a shortcut.

Most run their web businesses in the dark. They make decisions without all of the facts they could be easily using. Prime among these under-used information goldmines are the search engine results. By studying the search rankings, you can uncover:
- he best terms to write your content around (so you can claim prized rankings and rake-in gobs more free search engine traffic),
- What tactics your competitors are using to rise to the top of the search engines results (how are they getting links pointing to their sites?)
- Which partners in your market should you approach to promote your products (those on top, often have the most to offer).
Of course, the biggest reason most people don’t use this information is that sorting through all of results for the keywords in your market takes days or weeks of work. Instead, what you need is A Shortcut To Reveal The Search Engine Ranking’s Fast!
Let me introduce you to “Google Rank Analyzer.”

It is worth cataloging the basic principles to be enforced to increase website traffic and search engine rankings.
- Create a site with valuable content, products or services.
- Place primary and secondary keywords within the first 25 words in your page content and spread them evenly throughout the document.
- Research and use the right keywords/phrases to attract your target customers.
- Use your keywords in the right fields and references within your web page. Like Title, META tags, Headers, etc.
- Keep your site design simple so that your customers can navigate easily between web pages, find what they want and buy products and services.
- Submit your web pages i.e. every web page and not just the home page, to the most popular search engines and directory services. Hire someone to do so, if required. Be sure this is a manual submission. Do not engage an automated submission service.
- Keep track of changes in search engine algorithms and processes and accordingly modify your web pages so your search engine ranking remains high. Use online tools and utilities to keep track of how your website is doing.
- Monitor your competitors and the top ranked websites to see what they are doing right in the way of design, navigation, content, keywords, etc.
- Use reports and logs from your web hosting company to see where your traffic is coming from. Analyze your visitor location and their incoming sources whether search engines or links from other sites and the keywords they used to find you.
- Make your customer visit easy and give them plenty of ways to remember you in the form of newsletters, free reports, reduction coupons etc.
- Demonstrate your industry and product or service expertise by writing and submitting articles for your website or for article banks so you are perceived as an expert in your field.
- When selling products online, use simple payment and shipment methods to make your customer’s experience fast and easy.
- When not sure, hire professionals. Though it may seem costly, but it is a lot less expensive than spending your money on a website which no one visits.
- Don’t look at your website as a static brochure. Treat it as a dynamic, ever-changing sales tool and location, just like your real store to which your customers with the same seriousness.

It is the search engines that finally bring your website to the notice of the prospective customers. Hence it is better to know how these search engines actually work and how they present information to the customer initiating a search.
There are basically two types of search engines. The first is by robots called crawlers or spiders.
Search Engines use spiders to index websites. When you submit your website pages to a search engine by completing their required submission page, the search engine spider will index your entire site. A ‘spider’ is an automated program that is run by the search engine system. Spider visits a web site, read the content on the actual site, the site’s Meta tags and also follow the links that the site connects. The spider then returns all that information back to a central depository, where the data is indexed. It will visit each link you have on your website and index those sites as well. Some spiders will only index a certain number of pages on your site, so don’t create a site with 500 pages!
The spider will periodically return to the sites to check for any information that has changed. The frequency with which this happens is determined by the moderators of the search engine.
A spider is almost like a book where it contains the table of contents, the actual content and the links and references for all the websites it finds during its search, and it may index up to a million pages a day.
Example: Excite, Lycos, AltaVista and Google.
When you ask a search engine to locate information, it is actually searching through the index which it has created and not actually searching the Web. Different search engines produce different rankings because not every search engine uses the same algorithm to search through the indices.
One of the things that a search engine algorithm scans for is the frequency and location of keywords on a web page, but it can also detect artificial keyword stuffing or spamdexing. Then the algorithms analyze the way that pages link to other pages in the Web. By checking how pages link to each other, an engine can both determine what a page is about, if the keywords of the linked pages are similar to the keywords on the original page.
