Why promote your website daily?

March 5, 2013 Promotional Tips  37 comments

Many webmasters/site owners will only promote their website every so often, with the more enthusiastic advertising perhaps a few times per week. The top class SEO experts though, they promote their websites almost daily.

Why?

There are a number of reasons why regular and almost daily promotion is key.

The first is that many people promote in the same marketplace regularly, ie. Forums, Article Site, Twitter etc. As most of you would know, all of these areas are often saturated with other webmasters and individuals promoting and using these networks. Daily promotion will allow regular reach and interaction with these communities, helping to keep their minds alert/knowing about your site. They may not be interested initially, but if you promotion is regular in these familiar areas,

Traffic Statistics…do they mean much?

February 22, 2013 Promotional Tips  48 comments

A lot of people brag about the traffic they get to their websites, how many visitors they get daily, weekly monthly etc. It often sounds very impressive but there are a few things you need to consider with traffic and traffic statistics. This is also very important if you're looking to buy a website.

1. Traffic Bouncing: It is all good and well getting 1000s of hits per day, but if they all visit your website, and then leave 2 seconds later, that is somewhat of a waste. When this happens its referred to as traffic bouncing. If you find this is happening to you, you need to analyse a few things. For people to bounce pretty quickly there needs to be a large lack of interest in the site/design/layout. Something has to be turning people off the site. If buying a website,

Google is No.1

February 9, 2013 Promotional Tips  33 comments

There are many search engines out there, a high number of which are completely pointless, or actually use the search results of some of the bigger search engines, but when you break it down, there is really only 3 search engines to consider.

Google

Bing

Yahoo

I am happy for people to have different views on this, and by all means if you think another search engine is worth ranking with one of the big 3 then please let me know, but based on size, reach, traffic, use and ranking value, these 3 easily rank highest.

 

Each of the search engines have minor different factors of SEO that you can consider if wishing to optimize it exclusively for that engine. But if we break it down, out of all the traffic you get, at least 50% is likely to be from Google. When people go to

Advertisements, the negative affect on SEO?

February 9, 2013 Promotional Tips  71 comments

Many websites use a variety of different advertisements to gain money from their sites. This is very popular and I highly recommend that all websites use some form of advertisements to help pay for their website costs and earn some money. This might be in the forum of Adsense or another similar program, paid links or images, redirect forums or something else entirely.

 

The mistake that some websites make is displaying too many advertisements on their site. Sure, I can see the point behind it, try to maximize the earning potential of the site by gaining more views and more links clicks or selling more ad spaces. I get it sure, I've even tried this myself. Let me now tell you two reasons why this is a bad idea.

1. Aesthetically/Visually: Think for a moment if

Why use Tags for Forum Topics and Blog Posts!

February 9, 2013 Promotional Tips  41 comments

Similar to the article regarding your post title relevance, when posting a forum topic or a blog post, utilizing the tags component can be very useful for promotional and SEO purposes. Many people do not spend the extra time when composing these posts/articles/topics to add in the tags. For the sake of an extra 30 seconds, I highly recommend it!

 

Whenever you start up/promote a website, you choose some keywords. These are target words/phrases that you wish to use based on your site and genre. Keywords are very important in MANY aspects of your website promotion, as outlined in Premium Promotion Secrets eBook.

 

Now keywords help you gain higher ranking in the search engines for those words/phrases, using tags on topics/posts/articles can serve a very similar

Should I submit my site to Google?

February 9, 2013 Promotional Tips  44 comments

"Do I submit my website into Google manually, or should I wait for the search engine to crawl the link and have it indexed?"
I can hear you asking the question from here. You sound confused an in need of some guidance. Well you have stumbled upon the right place, I'm here to give you a few pointers on the matter.

 

If you submit your website manually, it will be indexed within the first week likely, leading to a quicker ability for people to search and find your content through Google. Sounds pretty good right?

 

If you wait for Google to find your link on another site, let's say a forum profile link, and then index it, this takes longer, sometimes up to a few months. Why would I even consider this you ask? Well, there are thoughts that sites can rank better when

Title of you post holds SEO relevance and IS important!

January 24, 2013 Promotional Tips  42 comments

When promoting either through forums by posting topics, or through blogs with posts, or even in an article directory...the TITLE holds great SEO relevance. Search engines pay notice to the title of the post...so this is the end of pointless and boring titles when promoting!

 

Let's say you're on a forum and you are posting a topic to promote your website, there is no point just posting "My Website - Check it out!". Posting a topic title that is a sentence relevant to your website, and implementing keywords that you are targeting. This works with your blog posts and article directory titles. And you don't have to just use this for posting promotional topics, you can use it in a topic whenever your link is mentioned.

 

You will gain greater SEO relevance and results
