New Blog about Blogging

Well after a decade break, I finally decided to get back into blogging. I was excited to see that this blog had received hundreds of thousands of visitors while I was away. It really made me think about all the money and popularity I lost by leaving. I decided to start a blog about blogging. I think I will take the time to begin editing this blog spot blog as well to do much better in search.

What I Have Learned

It is definitely the new age. We are now seeing a massive surge in ai content. I myself have been playing around with the different ais to see what is possible. I have been spending time learning from major players in the SEO and Blogging world. 

It seems that link authority and EEAT have become the deciding factor on whether or not a blog does well in search. Creating written content that is 100% unique and well-researched is more important than ever. The internet is quickly filling up with spam created by these bots.

Rules for Blogging

Spending countless hours on Youtube watching creators in the Blogging space has taught me a few lessons. 

1. A good blog post has several elements. It needs to be broken up rather than text blocks. The post should contain numerous media within to keep it looking fresh. The content needs to have real research with links to authoritative sources.
2. SEO for the most part has stayed the same. I think it has just become a bit more mainstream. Tools for SEO have definitely become more necessary (Surfer SEO, Ahrefs, etc) 
3. The necessary post length has definitely increased over the years. No longer is Google ranking content for pieces that actually meet the query. I have noticed this simply by searching different terms. The content it ranks is massive guides that are somewhat close to the query, but not very targeted toward it. 

Plans Moving Forward

I will be spending a lot of time on my new blog creating new content about blogging. I would like to keep this blog up to date as well so I will probably be rewriting much of the content here. You should also expect some major changes to appearance.

The Importance Of Original Content When Marketing Online

There are so many programs and automated software out on the web that promises amazing articles. They will either write an article for you or take an article you have written and spin it into a unique article which you can submit to all the top article directories again. People are spending hundreds of dollars on these programs not understanding the power of a unique article. If you spend the time doing creating your own articles rather than having a spinner or creator do the work you are guaranteed better results. I understand that there are many people out on the web hoping to make money online without working every day, but article spinning is not the way to go. When you write your own content on a regular basis it will become easier and easier. One problem though is when people begin running out of ideas they don’t realize they need to be learning more about their niche so they have material for new unique articles.

The most common use of article spinning will be for a person’s internet marketing campaign. They will want articles they can submit to article directories. There are some lower class article directories that probably won’t actually read the entire article before publishing them. The problem with these article directories is they will not bring in the amount of publishers you need to succeed. If you tried to submit a spun article to one of the major article directories such as ezinearticles.com they would quickly decline the article. I find that with these top directories not only do they read the article they go as far as checking the links in the resource box making sure the links follow their guidelines. People don’t realize that a software program cannot write nearly as well as a person. Yes they can switch out sentences and words making the article look new, but they cannot make the article contain the same substance as a human written article. You may think that you can use the software to submit your spun articles to lower class article directories, but these directories will not have the same power in the search engines and will not help your article spread.

You may think that you cannot write unique articles consistently. This is a fear for many new webmasters and bloggers, but this is a unrealistic fear. Anyone can learn how to write articles on their niche if they are willing to practice. One important thing to do is read the publishers within your niche. The more you read the better your writing will become. You will learn how to express different ideas from these publishers. Spelling and grammar is another difficulty people struggle with including myself. They way I have overcome this is by using a quality word processor such as Microsoft Word. The great thing about writing for the web is quality writing is not determined by the level of technical writing skill, but rather the voice or personality of the writer.

Finding Online Business Ideas

Well these are all of my little squidoo lenses and they range from every little side project I have ever wanted to create. I have done reviews on books I have read and movies I have watched. The majority are articles which were reformatted into a lens format then published on squidoo so you may recognize some of the work on these lenses. I would like to take note on how I use the lenses to market other lenses and use the RSS feed module to market this blog. Now for the majority of marketing I heavily rely on article directories which you can see at the very beginning of this post, but also the Free Traffic System

Moving This Blog

Well for some reason or another Google will not rank this blog. It is possible that it is banned or some other issues have happened. Anyway I am going to set up the exact same blog with the same set up. I am going to keep the old posts on this blog, but all new posts will be written on a wordpress engine on my own domain. Personally I feel like telling Google to bite me, but I guess it is not their fault they can't index the blog. I have never had the problem of having every sub page indexed, but the root URL not indexed so I am going to move. I will be spending the rest of the night setting up a brand new wordpress blog and I hope to see everyone over there for future posts. I will edit this post to add the link to the new blog.

Hey guys I have the URL though no content yet I will work on getting at least one post by tommorow:) Anyway here is the URL where I will continue this blog at my online business blog

Work With Google Not Against

When people try to build a marketing campaign that leads to free web traffic they will sometimes make the mistake of thinking that the only way to gain this traffic is through beating Google. This is not the case if you work with whitehat methods to increase traffic not going up against Google or trying to trick the search engine it is possible to reach the top for many different key terms. One thing is certain those who get away with tricking Google using blackhat methods will reach the top and receive some traffic the problem with using the techniques is when Google realizes that the website has tricked them they usually will be banned. If you get banned the only way to be re-indexed by Google is to remove all black hat seo techniques and then submit a request which usually takes over a month and is not a guarantee for re-inclusion. If you spent years working on a website then implemented a dirty technique all the years of work could possibly go to waste and the income that you were making from the website would disappear.

When you start out building a website you should consider Google from the very first line. Include the title tag with the title or closely related keywords that represent your website then fill in the keyword and description meta tags. You should do this for not only the root domain, but also all sub pages. When writing content for your website make sure that you put keywords throughout the page and in headings. If your website is about fishing then putting the keywords “fish”, “fishing”, “learn how to fish”, “how to fish”, will not be hard to put in. If there is no room for the keyword then think about creating a sub page for that word or term. You should use Google’s adwords keyword tool to find the best keywords which have the most traffic. When you are putting keywords into your site there is a couple things you should keep in mind. The first thing you will want to do is make sure that you are not stuffing keywords meaning don’t repeat the keyword over and over make sure the density of the keyword does not go over ten percent. The second mistake many internet marketers make when trying to SEO a website is not worrying about the readability of the website. Never under any circumstances sacrifice the readability of your website for keywords or any other SEO technique your visitors should always come first.

The next thing you will want to do is build links slowly and naturally. Don’t jump into link farms they are a waste of time and will place your website into the spam category of the web. When link building stick with reputable websites that have a decent amount of time and page rank behind them. Some of these websites include digg, prlog, and v7n forums. All three of these allow you to build links and all have a good name meaning the links that they send out to websites will be of high quality. Articles are another great way to get links write plenty of articles and submit them to the free traffic system and Ezine articles. If you do these things regularly you will reach the top of Google and be able to make money online free.

Tips On Blog Commenting

Well I run a few blogs some that I write for and some I just manage and enjoy the income for. One thing is I moderate all the comments on all the blogs. Now when you comment on a blog such as this one which has the no follow removed and allows keywords in the name box meaning you get a keyword targeted do follow backlink it is a good idea to actually read the post. If I get something like Great Post! Very informative I will return soon! I am going to delete it immediately. I have used comment kahuna which is blog commenting software and I know what general comments look like. If you want to get your comment published then first read the full post not skimming. Then take a minute to absorb the information and post a useful thoughtful comment.

If you really want to get your comment published then bring up something within the post. If someone wanted to comment on this post they could say "good post on blog commenting I did or didn't agree with taking time to absorb the information" or whatever part of the post you want to bring up. This tells me that you actually read the post and remembered at least one point brought up in the post.

You should also not be to concerned with if a blog has the no follow attribute or not. The point of blog commenting is not to increase your backlinks, but rather increase your network "who you know". If you were to comment on my blog for a while then asked if you could guest post by emailing me asking to guest post and including the actual post showing that it is done. I would of course give you full credit, but I would only publish the article if you had been hanging around the blog for a while. Anyway just a few tips.

A Little On Interlinking

Well for now I am going to get into the personal aspects of this blog. First and foremost I could not beleive the fact that this blog did not gain it's PR back with the newest update last week or the week before. I am not sure why or how, but the 1,500 links could not even provide a PR of 0. On the other hand my Internet Marketing Forum jumped up to a page rank of two and my website Make Money Online also jumped up to two page rank. My root domain kbeus.com jumped up to page rank of 1 without anything done to it. Yet this blog that had a PR of 2 months ago has had nothing the last two updates. I know some of you may be thinking that it got banned for some reason or another, but when I checked Google and Yahoo they showed that every post that I write and the main domain help their page rank. Personally I think that I have been marketing the hell out of my other websites not really having time to build links towards this page which is why. Either way I just wanted to catch you guys up if you have any suggestions please leave a comment on with the post.

Now when I say interlinking what I am referring to is the links from one of your websites to the others. This has been called a link wheel, but personally I like to only put websites in my blog posts or on my websites that I think will help the visitor to that presence. Now if I have a new website such as the one I have just began marketing which is called Free Web Traffic. This is going to be one of my bigger websites I started out with a four page website really basic just listing the ways to gain more traffic. It of course has links to the resources that I use, but what I am planning to do with it is add a few dozen tutorials covering the basics of SEO, Link Building, and Social Marketing. Now I wanted this website indexed quickly so I put links on everything I own and created a few different presences to support it such as a hub page.

Anyway all four pages are indexed though they don't come up for their keywords yet. The main income for this website will be Google adsense and now that is has been indexed I will be building backlinks very slowly for the next few months. If you are curious why slowly at first look at the post before this one called Overcoming Google Sandbox. I go over why they first few months should be a restful period only making sure that Google has indexed your website. Now after these months I will build a few hundred links and only continue building if Google drops the site. After these months I will then launch a full fledge internet marketing campaign to try and hit the top of Google. It is much easier to reach the top of Google with an older site and if the site does has age then it is much easier to hold a high SERPs position. I will with the link building be adding the tutorials to show Google the site is growing and becoming more useful to readers. After a while the traffic will stablize and I will know my set income. I am not planning on holding the top of Google for free web traffic or free website traffic since:



Has the number one spot and will not be going anywhere for a very long time. I will attempt to become second for the key terms. Anyway after I begin marketing hard I will remove the backlinks to the website that are from websites that are not in the same niche. If the website does not have anything to do with internet marketing or internet business I will not have a link to the free web traffic site. I only want relevant links that will actually help. Anyway I am going to attempt to gain upto PR 3 and the top of Google for this site with a constant supply of keyword filled backlinks. Please if you have questions on this matter such as when or how to link your websites leave a comment.

Overcoming The Google Sandbox

This idea came to me recently after doing some searches for my newest website Make Money Online I found even though I have enough backlinks and content to show up my website does not have the time. So what I will be doing in the next six months to a year with this website is building a link or two weekly making sure the website does not get de indexed (Google thinks it is dying). I will add content on the wordpress blog I installed with the site maybe a post a week or so nothing real big just enough to let Google know it is growing. That is it "the big plan". Now it may not seem very big to someone that does not know about what it means to be an internet marketer, but if you know about Google you know they don't trust new websites. You must prove yourself with time and once Google and other search engines knows you are here to say then your marketing will not go to waste.

Sponsor Website (The Website I Use To Market My Websites):



For those new bloggers and webmasters out there here is some tips that will help you save time rather then waste. If you start a blog build a few hundred links making sure that Google indexes your blog. Over the next year make sure to post new and helpful content often, but do not worry about search engine placement or backlinks. If Google does not keep your home URL in their index then go ahead and build a few hundred new links to get re indexed. Over a years time you should have at least a few hundred good quality posts with great information. It is after this first year that you want to begin your link building campaign. This is the time to go all out and build thousands of good quality one way links that are optimized for your keywords. It is now the time to really attempt to take the top of SERPs for your niche and start building an income through traffic generation.

Now for a webmaster who has their website complete and ready to go they are not able to write post after post since they will not have a blog. For these people they will need to build a few hundred backlinks making sure their website is indexed. That is it they are done for the next six months to a year. Only check to see if your website is still indexed do not worry about traffic or position for a certain term. This is the time to let Google build trust towards your website. Now with a webmaster rather than writing hundreds of post during the wait they can build more websites which will increase their network and reach.

Expanding Your Online Business Presence

Make Money Online

One mistake that webmasters make is thinking that after the completion of their first website it will make enough to support their online needs. There are a few websites that I have seen which have enough to them to support not only one, but many different webmaster the problem is with most sole webmasters this is not enough. If you create a single blog or website that is of average size 40-50 pages and begin basic internet marketing you will find the restrictive nature of only having one presence. First off when trying to gain links to a specific post or the main home page you will have nowhere to turn, but if you set up a few squidoo lenses and hub pages finding a couple quick one way backlinks for your website becomes much easier. When you are out on the web internet marketing you will usually come across websites that are social and allow you to set up profiles. I have found these types of websites very beneficial when trying to grow an online brand. When you are trying to build a business online or brand you will need to be everywhere possible and really focus on hitting your target not only through SEO, but also social medias.

When webmasters attempt to expand their online business by the creation of more unique web presences they sometimes have no idea where to start. Some of the most common places that webmasters increase their online presence I suggested in the previous paragraph (squidoo and hubpages). If you market your online business with article marketing then you have noticed that the article websites usually want you to sign up. Usually you will be able to write a bio, add a picture, and on advanced article websites such as Ezine articles you will be able to add twitter link, facebook link, and a youtube link. You can only add these links if you are in the social online world and being social online these days is mandatory for any webmaster that wants to be successful.

If you are a webmaster, but have no online portfolio which includes social media then the four websites that you will want to begin building your social presence with are facebook, twitter, youtube (buy a twenty dollar web cam and talk about your niche), and big social bookmarking websites like digg. If you are new to the online social world you will find out quickly that if you spam you lose your social power. The best way to succeed with an online social brand building campaign is to interact and try to help, be funny, or unique. These three things are great for all the social presences that I listed previously and will help you succeed in your online business. Remember the most important thing to learn about being a webmaster is the only ones that fail are the ones that give up and if you would like to learn more about marketing your business feel free to visit this internet marketing forum.

Content Creation is Important to Web Development

When I began my online business career which is about how to make money online I was told one thing by many different webmasters and bloggers which was “backlinks rank your website within major search engines”. Well this is not exactly true and in most cases backlinks only have a small effect on where a website will be placed. If you go into the news niche up against major companies such as cnn and forbes you will find that constant update of fresh content is much more important than gaining new text links. I am guessing if the content on the news site is good enough the story will be linked to from related blogs trying to provide their readers within informative content as well as major websites within the niche. Now if you are in a more static niche such as literature, history, or something similar where there is not always new news then backlinks from authoritative websites will be what drives websites to the top of search engines. In most cases though it will be a mix of the two content creation and link development.

A problem with quite a few webmasters and bloggers is they are not sure the amount of content they should be adding to their website. Personally I have found when blogging 5-14 weekly posts is suitable to sustain enough content to keep a blog on top of Google. When creating content write about things you think people will want to look up such as how tos and list of. These kind of titles are typed into Google all the time and if you get a post to the top of Google for a well searched term then you will see a good jump in traffic. Another important thing to do when working on a blog or other web presence is make sure that the URL is well SEO’d. What this means is if you have a blog in your control panel make sure that you pick the permalink that shows the post title rather than just a bunch of random characters. If you have a website then when saving make sure to give relevant names to the folders and save the file with the title of the subpage rather than something like page1. If you put the title which should be the search term for the page it will have a much better chance for ranking high within the serps.

Now after you create content and post it on your blog or website that is not it. Content is one of the greatest marketing tools on the web today and if you want to get loyal readers or visitors then content marketing is a must. There are many different places which you can gain exposure for your work. After the completion and publication of your article on your presences the next step will be publishing your work on top article directories and using social bookmarking. Websites such as digg let you submit every article you create and as long as it is good quality you will probably gain some votes and traffic. You can also use forums within your niche and let people know if for example you write an article on internet marketing you could come to my internet marketing forum post a link and a description and ask the members what they think about it.

The Best Link Creation Method

As a webmaster who is driven by the want to succeed with search engines and really make money online there is one thing that I have found beats out most others and that is link creation. When I started my online career I did not care where I got the links so I began submitting to any website that would accept URL’s including link farms and ffa pages. Well this quickly lead to my website being banned (pretty much the worst thing a webmaster can experience). I did not know what to do so I started a new website dedicated to the same niche “make money online”. Rather than repeat the same mistake I took a few months and read everything I could about the correct method of link creation and white hat internet marketing. I had no idea there was a right and wrong path when you are trying to get to the top of Google and I was a little irritated by the fact that Google only liked websites that had links from relevant high authority websites.

The webmaster forums were a great way to start the search for relevant high authority one way links. I asked all the experienced webmasters and every time I got two answers on how to accomplish this task. The first way to accomplish this is to become an authority within my niche the person everyone looks at when they want to find out something about making money online. This was even more depressing since I was in such a populated niche there would be a very unrealistic chance of me climbing above the rest. The second answer I got was create link bait. I found that I did not have to be the expert of a niche to be linked to, but no matter what I needed content worthy of linking to. There are many ways to create link bait some good others can lead to more problems than they are worth.



When you are trying to create link bait keep in your mind what you would link to as well as what would be extremely unique and very hard to duplicate. One of the best ways to create link bait is to be the first to report. If someone searches for news within a niche and you already have a blog post before everyone else then people will find your post within the SERPs and if the news is important enough they will place a link from their blog or website to the piece. The second way to create link bait is when writing make sure to do your research. A good example of this is when I tested which gave more traffic Digg or Stumble Upon. This post took around 3 days to produce with all the stats and the content was linked to very quickly (on the other hand if you do not do research then your credibility will be quickly wrecked and no one will link to you). The last way to create link bait which has worked for me is large lists. Everyone especially webmasters and bloggers want lists of resources so on my blog I made sure to have a post with 500 article directories and a post with 100 social bookmarking websites. I found that these posts by themselves acquired their own page rank. So if you are looking to gain high quality backlinks be sure to create content worth linking to.

Diversify Your Internet Marketing Campaign

As a new webmaster I spent plenty of time in the webmaster forums more specifically in the SEO and Google forums which helped me reach the top of Google for many different keywords. I did see really good traffic and made a bit of money, but later as Google changed up their algorithm my website dropped deep into the darkest depths of the index where no visitor travels. After getting over the fact that all of my work had pretty much been for nothing since I had nothing to show I decided to begin a diverse marketing campaign. This time I would hit all the major traffic sources such as major video, social, and article websites. I would become well known within my niche so if Google decided to drop me once more I would be able to continue getting traffic from various traffic and still have an income. You must remember when marketing online do not devote all of your marketing efforts to only one form of traffic especially if you want to make money online. This article will explain some different methods of gaining traffic from multiple sources.

The first way to get traffic that I would like to talk about is gaining search engine traffic through link building and SEO. This traffic is extremely targeted and monetizes easily. Search traffic is the only traffic that can be easily monetized with Google adsense and other PPC campaigns. To gain this traffic you will need a basic understanding of SEO and the ability to build thousands of backlinks to your web presence. I have found The Free Traffic System a great way to build links and increase traffic. You can also use free directories, press releases, and article websites. When you are building links be sure to place the keywords between your anchor tags. If you place keywords rather than some obscure words or the Url of your website your web presence will begin gaining SERPs placement for the keywords which you place.

The next form of traffic that I would like to talk about is Social traffic. People say twitter is worthless when it comes to traffic, but if I post a link telling my followers about my new product or ask for their help with my new internet marketing forum they have always come through for me. Also when you build social relationships it is much easier to gain rank within the social bookmarking websites since your friends will have no problem digging your blog posts or web pages. Personally my favorite social website is facebook. I join large groups and interact making friends almost each and every day. I then convert a friend on facebook to my blog reader and follower on twitter. Social medias are also extremely fun to participate in something I cannot say about submitting a website to a general directory.



The last type of traffic I would like to talk about is You Tube and other popular videos. Usually a basic web cam great for making informative videos for your niche costs around 30 dollars and when you upload to you tube you are placing your video in front of millions upon millions of potential visitors and blog readers. If you make videos often then you will see your videos coming up in google, bing, and yahoo searches.

What Will People Search For?

Guys this is one of the most important topics of SEO and internet marketing. You should be on the constant look out for what people will be typing in to find your website, blog post, or sub pages. So how do we know what people are searching for? Well there is one great tool that I use ~ https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal You type in any keyterm and google will pull up how many times in the last month that term has been searched for. You can also use this tool~ http://www.google.com/trends (it is no longer in beta so I guess they decided to keep it) anyway this tool will tell you the popularity of a keyterm over an extended period of time. So let say you go to the adwords tool and type in the term "make money online" you find that last month there was around 200k searches for that term. Most people would stop there not concerned about how the term did a year ago, but not you. You go to Google trends and find that it has been riding very low and had a 1000X spike last month and if you go after the term it will fall back down to its average. Now this is not the case with the term make money online it is a very good term.

It is not all about tools and anaylitcs when you want to know what people are searching for. Let say you own a website that offers a massive list of directories. You have a goal of listing every free directory on the web and quickly banning any that begin charging. Well you have a list of 2k solid free directories. The problem is you have not been building any links and have very little traffic even after months of work. You know the list will be extremely helpful to webmasters on a fixed budget and really want to get the word out. You begin the process of working the SERPs ranking high for keywords that are well searched for and explain your website very well. To begin choosing keywords you go through the tools checking what people search for when wanting a large list of free directories some of the test would probably include "list of directories", "directory list", "free directory list", "free directory", "free directories", "general directories", and on and on. Now the problem is you are looking at term after term putting them in software wanting to find the most traffic. You have not thought about the subject with common sense and picked at least two or three terms which fit your site the best and didn't worry about traffic just went after the keywords. If I had a big list of free directories the terms I would certainly rank for no matter what the search volume would be "list of free directories", "big list of free directories", "free one way links", and "free directories". This is what I would spend my time with at first making sure I was ranking well for the keyterms which best represented my website.

As you dig into the world of search engine optimization and keyword research you should be keeping one thing in mind and that is if it was easy everyone would do it. You can look at big terms in your niche all day long it won't help you rank well for them. If you want to rank well for the "bank" terms in your niche the ones that pay the bills then expect to be working for a very long time. I have just passed my second year as a webmaster and I just reached the top for a term with 20k monthly search. This has definatley grown my income, but I still can not yet sit home and do this full time I need to keep working on the bigger keywords 100k+ terms. The reason I will get there is I am willing to build a few hundred links each and every day. It also helps that I will not be giving up any time soon.

Anyway if you liked this post please leave a comment and tell me what you think.

The Core of Internet Marketing

When you join the online business world in the attempt to make money online it is important to understand the basics of internet marketing and continually revert back when lost in the internet marketing world. This article will cover some of the things that if you do each day your website will do much better. These are the basics which the majority of successful webmasters do over and over again and have been proven effective in almost every circumstance. One tip I would like to share with you about everything you read and learn about internet marketing and that is don’t think you will find the one big “answer” in any one spot it will take learning from tons of different sources before you can begin to master internet marketing. I have found there is no one true guide that will teach you everything, but the experience of many who have tried and failed where you will pick up your best knowledge.

The first way to stay in touch with internet marketing is by joining a few internet marketing forums. These are where webmasters come together and discuss what is and what is not working. I have learned the keys to basic and advanced SEO as well as branding and link building. These forums are great to review and see what the new webmasters are asking. Usually it will be things you know about and know quite well, but perhaps left deep in the back of your mind. You can of course help these webmasters and make a new online friend if they are in the same niche then you can work together to create a cross promotional campaign.



You should also look to the blogosphere for any new marketing concepts. There are many great internet marketing blogs that you can find by using Google. The best way to pick which blogs are best use the tactics the bloggers publish if they work keep reading the blog if they are junk ideas then delete the blog from you reader or favorites. If you read these blogs often and build the relationship between you and the blogger there will be a greater chance for the possibility of a guest post or link exchange.

The last thing every webmaster should be doing is creating content constantly as well as backlinks. These two things are the basic driving force behind the web and internet marketing. If you do not have new articles or backlinks on a weekly basis then you can expect to drop within the SERPs. Make sure to do your research on these two things since they will be extremely important in your internet marketing campaign. If you work hard on both of these two things as often as possible within a year you should be a competitive presence within your niche rather than just hitting a few hits daily.

Matt Cutts Talking About Link Building

I can not beleive that I did not find this video until now. I was actually doing some reasearch for my new website make money online and found a blog which had this video. The blog is http://www.iamkaiser.com/ which I want to give some thanks.

Anyway I love this video because it asks the question that I think Matt is not to found of. It asks how to get links "WITHOUT" good content or what are the other methods besides good content to get links. He of course puts in the tip writing good content is the foundation of good links, but also talks about using social media. I also really like the fact he covers some of the bad/overused ways to get links such as list building and controvery. Anyway it is an excellent video and I would love to here your thoughts. Personally I use this system to get links:

How To SEO Your Website

The first part of any optimization is choosing the niche you would like to build your web presence in. A niche is the category such as “make money online”, “fishing”, “internet marketing”, or whatever category your website is about. You want to make sure that there is enough traffic within your niche to support your goals. If your goal is just to practice being a webmaster and discuss a topic then traffic will not be much of a concern, but if you are planning on spending thousands of hours on this website and hoping it will make you wealthy then niche popularity will be an important factor when trying to decide what niche you would like to create your presence for. Once you have picked your niche it is time to begin looking at all the keywords in your niche. You will want to take the top 10 keywords and work them into your website. Personally I like to use two keywords per web page then build links with those keywords in them. You can use one keyword or ten keyword, the great thing about SEO is the lack of right and wrong just what works and what doesn’t.

Now as you create your website with the keywords in mind try not to over populate your content with your keywords this is called keyword stuffing and can have adverse affects on your website within the SERPs. You should also never sacrifice readability, overall visual look, or usability for any SEO. The SEO should only be incorporated where it will not have a negative effect on your website. If the visitor gets to your website, but automatically clicks off because it has ugly SEO crap all over then your SEO efforts will be wasted. Now after the website is created and the keyword rich content is published the next step will be to make every web page suitable for landing equipped with full meta tags.

This is the part of SEO where we focus on the bots. A bot is a program that searches the web for websites then indexes them into search engines. Every major search engine has a bot and the bot is usually named for the search engine it represents such as Google bot and yahoo bot. There are a few meta tags that you should be filling out for every page that is suitable for a landing page (the page a visitor hits your site from a search engine). Remember you can rank sub pages in your website for number 1 if you build links for them. The meta tags you should be filing out is the title and description these are going to be displayed in Google so don’t worry about keywords just make sure that they explain your website very well. Do not put content in the title or description unless it describes your site fully this content is what google searchers will be looking at when they decide if your website is the right one for them. If you have any question about SEO feel free to ask in my Internet marketing forum.

SEO and Article Marketing

When you dive into the online business world you will find the golden rule which is fresh new content always wins. Now if you are creating new content there are steps which you can take to get the most out of the new fresh content. You should be aware of the SEO aspect which a new article holds and how to place links throughout the article which have keywords within the anchor tags. I have also found it useful to place the article in multiple places online giving all of my readers and repeat visitors something new. It also looks good to Google when you have your web presences updated with new content it shows that you are not letting your website or blog die.

Now when you begin if your goal is to make money online free you must worry about traffic and the Search Engine Results Position for every article and web page you own. Focus on creating content which is going to be searched for. There is a couple ways to do this the first is with Google adwords keyword tool which you can find by doing a Google search. The second way to find what is being asked is going to forums and social networking sites looking at actual questions. After enough research you will find a great article topic that has been asked about frequently across the social sites. Make sure to take time and think about the best title for your article then double check the search volume and begin writing. It is good to take parts of the title and have them repeat at least once within your article as long as you don’t sacrifice readership. If you notice I have already used SEO within this article and before the end I will have put in article marketing without sacrificing readability.

Now that you have your article written and ready for publication it is time to begin finding the best places to market your article. Personally I really like article directories, my blogs, and the free traffic system. All of these allow me to get the most out of my content in my article marketing campaign. Each of these three things offer a unique aspect for both my traffic and backlink building tactics. When I post an article on an article directory it will be republished throughout the online world and every time it is published the website or blog that it is published on gives me two or so backlinks. When I get published on buzzle or ehow the prestige is what helps my brand grow. Now when I publish my articles on my blogs it gives my readers new content to read and the impression that my blog is new and fresh. The free traffic system is an entire different entity. It shoots my article out to thirty blogs which are related and gives me two backlinks from each blog all for free. Anyway if you want to get the most out of your article marketing be sure to learn SEO an use different publishing platforms.

Best Ways To Promote Your Blog

One mistake that many bloggers make is they market their blog the same way they would market a website. This is one mistake that can be avoided if you stick with the social aspects of the web rather than being strictly concerned with SEO, link building, and SERPs placement. Also after the creation of a website you are pretty much done with the content creation, but with a blog you will continue to create content on a regular basis especially if you are trying to make money online. I have found that blogging and blog promotion is much more time consuming compared to being a regular webmaster. Blogging takes quite a bit more ambition and a greater work ethic, but if you are willing to sit down every day and really work hard creating content and networking with other bloggers there is no reason you cannot succeed. You will need to set up a daily schedule which you write and write and write. One good thing with wordpress is you can create a post and schedule the publication of the post at a future date. Whether you write every day or spend a lot of time writing a few posts one day and scheduling them for release at future dates it is still necessary you take the time to write.

When you set up your blog one important thing to think about is the topic or niche of your blog. It is imperative that the niche you pick has people interested in it and you are very passionate about the topic. You should realize that if you want to be successful you should plan on blogging for the next year or two at least so don’t think just because you wrote a few posts your blog is going to explode with traffic. After you pick your niche begin posting personally I get around 50 posts up before I begin marketing my blogs. If you need help with post topics hit the forums and other communities within your niche. It is always a good idea to sign up and participate in a Internet Marketing Forum to learn new ways of promoting your blog. When you decide to begin building links a great place for blogs is the social websites such as twitter, facebook, digg, technorati, and the others. These websites usually have communities packed with bloggers so when you meet new people and they have a blog somewhat relevant to yours you can begin setting up guest posts and other cross promotional campaigns.

Even though you should spend the majority of your time on these social websites it is ok to do some basic link building. A few places that offer free one way links are directories, article directories, press release websites, and the free traffic system (which you can find with a google search). These are great for all web presences, but for bloggers social medias tend to be a bit more productive.

Affiliate Marketing Tips

After the creation of your website and some basic internet marketing you may be wondering how you are going to make money online with your website. One of the easiest and highest paying ways to make money with your website and the traffic flowing through is with affiliate marketing. If you are not sure where to begin amazon.com has an amazing affiliate program that caters to every niche on the web. They have books covering every topic all you need to do is sign up for their affiliate program then create your widget and copy and paste the code to your website or blog. Whenever anyone clicks on one of the books or products you are paid a commission the more people you have coming to your website or blog the more clicks on the products and the more money you will make. Now it is also important to investigate different places to put your affiliate adverts. On my website the top right of my blog seems to bring the most traffic. I have tried placing the ad in my header, in the middle of the page, and even after every post, but it became clear quite quickly that the best place for me to place the ad is on the top right of my blog. For you it could be completely different perhaps an ad in the header would be the best place or within your posts.



To make any money online you will need to have a decent amount of traffic to your website or blog. When trying to increase website or blog traffic you should focus on a few key elements of internet marketing. The first point you should focus on is fresh unique keyword rich content creation which will be the driving force of your website or blog. If you take the time to really write excellent helpful content you will drive traffic much faster than someone with low quality content. The second point of internet marketing is having an understanding of SEO. This is one the biggest separators between websites which webmaster knows more about SEO. When you SEO a website you should focus on four different things. The first two are on site and off site SEO. On site SEO is everything you do on your website whether it be content or meta tags. Off site SEO is backlink creation and brand building. You want to get everyone possible to link and talk about your website this has shown to greatly improve search engine placement. Now the last two types of SEO are sub types of on site SEO. The first is On page SEO and this is everything that a visitor sees when they come to your website. This includes content and headings. The last type of SEO is off page SEO and this is what the robots see when they come to your website such as meta tags and robot text files. Anyway if you would like to increase traffic Google all of these and learn all you can before the creation of your website.

Promoting Within Your Niche

One of the biggest mistakes that webmasters make when trying to make money online is not marketing towards their target audience and attempting to promote within their niche. When you create your website it is important to do research on the niche (category of website) that you are going to be joining. If you create a website within the fishing niche and spend all of your time within the webmaster niche your marketing efforts will be in vain. If you are willing to spend the time within your niche finding blogs, forums, and other web presence when you acquire backlinks from these websites they will be worth much more than backlinks acquired from non relevant websites. There are some exclusions when marketing which we will talk about later in this article, but for the majority of your internet marketing campaign you will want to stay within your category.

When seeking out different websites within your niche Google will become your best tool. I recommend finding at least 5 niche forums to participate in the reason for this is they give backlinks that are relevant as well as keep you informed of new information within your niche. You should also be on the lookout for the top blogs especially if they are do follow. Build a list of around 10 top blogs within your niche and begin commenting religiously in the attempt to build relationships with the bloggers. If you gain their trust and friendship it will not be a problem to find blogs to guest post on which could lead to a substantial amount of readers. If there are any news websites that cater around your niche keep them in your favorites so you know of any changes happening and if they allow you to submit press releases do so when you change your website and/or blog. One important point to remember is when you look at your competition and think partner rather than competitor marketing will be much easier.

Now there are quite a few general marketing platforms that every webmaster or blogger should be participating in. The first category of websites that all webmasters should be participating in is social networking. It is important for webmasters do be on websites such as twitter, digg, facebook, twine, and others. If you have been building relationships with webmasters in your niche when you digg one of your articles you should be able to rely on your online friends within your niche to digg the article as well. Another type of website that every webmaster can and should utilize is directories both article and general. These types of websites allow you to categorize your links into the most relevant category meaning that the link will be coming from a somewhat relevant link. It is good if google sees that your backlink is coming from a web page that has other backlinks of the same relevancy and the title of the web page is also relevant to your niche.
