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.

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.

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.

How to Optimize a Website for Google

Well I wrote this article and I think it will help those struggling with the basics of SEO. I know 4 posts in a day is over doing it and I should have spread these out, but i really don't care it will still be helpful to someone I am sure:) anyway here is my article:

This article is meant to be a basic guide for those who are not sure how to even begin optimizing a website for major search engines. If you have specific questions about the process of optimization then I suggest that you visit an Internet Marketing Forum. To begin SEO (Search Engine Optimization) you must first understand what exactly your trying to do. SEO is when a webmaster uses both on and off site tactics as well as on and off page tactics to rank well in the search engines. There are ways to rank well ethically called white hat SEO which is what this article will be focusing on as well as ways to rank well unethically called black hat SEO (I highly discourage any type of black hat optimization). SEO should never come before your website or blogs readability, visual look, or usability.

To begin optimizing your website pick the niche (category such as business or marketing) you would like to create your website in. Then choose between 10-20 keywords you would like to rank well for. When choosing keywords I recommend using the Google adwords keyword analyzing tool which shows you the amount of times monthly a particular term is searched for. Once you have found a few good keywords/terms which bring in enough traffic to make as much money as you want begin placing them in your meta tags and throughout your content. Make sure the terms are very relevant to your niche and to the website itself. Personally I am in the make money online niche and make sure to place the terms “make money online”, “make money online free”, “make money free”, “earn money online”, “earn money online free”, “How To Make Money Online”, ect. throughout my content and within the title meta tags and in my description meta tag. As google crawls my website they will notice that my website is about how to make money online.

Now you have your website up filled with terms that have large search volumes and the content with the terms makes since and does not repeat over and over it is time to begin building links. There are many different places to build links my favorites consist of article directories, general directories, the free traffic system, social bookmarking websites, blogs, social networking websites, and press release websites. Remember the backlinks which will push you up above the rest are going to be one way, on relevant webpages, and on high authority web pages. The links will also need to have the keywords you want to rank well for within the anchor tags. If you are submitting your site to general directories then placing your keywords in the title box will put the keywords between the anchor tags and help your search engine rankings for those keywords. Also when building links make sure to switch the keywords not building links for only one keyword or term.

How To Rank Well In Google

Well I have been thinking about this post for quite some time. Search after Search has turned up a bunch of ok guidelines, but mostly crap thoughts and posts done by people who will probably never see the first page of Google for any key term. One thing I would like to make clear if you want to learn SEO or Internet Marketing you need to learn from those making the ranking algorithm. I do know quite a bit and the majority I have learned from three places:

1st. On You Tube there is a channel which webmasters should be watching which is run by Google engineer Matt Cutts~ Google Webmaster Help

Guys this is the only real link that we have with Google. The majority of their ranking system is kept secret the only things they are willing to say is on their website, their blog, and this video channel.

2nd. Doing Google searches. That is right when I need to learn something I search google and go through page after page of results. I will read forum posts, articles, web pages, anything on the topic until I know it like the back of my hand. This is where I find the majority of my resources and should be taken advantage of remember "google it" has become famous for a reason.

3rd. Webmaster Forums. I love webmaster forums and so should you if you want to do well in online business. These platforms allow you to discuss thoughts, ideas, tactics, ect. with other webmasters and learn from their mistakes as well as sharing yours. Take advantage personally my favorite webmaster forum is V7N Forums. Join and ask questions. Also if you would like me to answer any questions about internet marketing I urge you to join my Internet Marketing Forum.

Now let's move onto what I have found ranks my websites and blogs well in Google. The most important thing for any website or online business is content. Google has become very good at taking crap out of their SERPs so if you think you can create a paragraph which is junk on a squidoo page and put a hundred affiliate links then create thousands of backlinks to push your page to the top forget about it. This was once ok, but now you actually have to offer something other than crap. Work hard on your content making it the best you can. If you do a good job others will link to you and you will have to do minimal internet marketing. This is the best way to reach the top of Google.

Now Google also likes popular/trustworthy topics and brands so work hard on being honest when online. If you run a blog try tor really be honest when posting making sure if you post something which is inaccurate you tell your readers as quickly as possible. This will really help when trying to build your authority online. Also be wary of who you are linking to if you link to junk websites such as porn, viagra, ect. then Google will think those are your brothers and sisters and throw you into the category of junk or spam. Link to Good websites for example let say I am running a marketing blog. I am going to link to websites such as SEO Book and SEO MOZ. These are well established and respected sites Google will look at these outgoing links and associate my presence with them helping me out. The point is be careful don't link to those who should not have links.

Build links with keywords between the anchor tags. This is important and should be done. If you have a website with good content which has the keywords you would like to rank well for if you want to reach the top of Google you will need to build links and usually quite a few of them. This is how my website How To Make Money Online is doing so well. Anyway if you would like to build links with keywords anchored I use:



It has worked well for me and if you use it then expect to see your link counts go way up. Remember though that you need good content before tons of links. Anyway this is just one of a few I will be doing on climbing Google serps I hit the main basic points with this post. Keep these four things in mind when building a site you would like to see at the top of search engines:
1. SEO
2. Quality Content Creation
3. Link Building
4. Branding

These four things when done right will get you to the top. If you don't want to use the free traffic system I have created a page which shows thousands of other places to gain white hat backlinks: Build Backlinks Free. If you have tips I would love to hear them.

Google SERPs Is Changing Big

As I continue to run check after check I have noticed considerable changes within the Google index. The first and probably biggest change is my websites and blogs not coming up high in the SERPs for closely associated keywords. Before if I typed in a keyword which was very close to a keyword I was building links for I would show up. For example I worked hard on the keyword make money online free and was showing up within the top hundred for make money online. Well I checked and now Google is not even listing me in the top 1000 for make money online. I understand that I did not build links for this keyword, but I was ranked high and the thousands of links that I built were closely related to the keyterm.

This is when I realized that Google is no longer guessing what sites should be ranked for which keywords. Before they would allow a website to rank high for multiple keywords as long as they related to the keyword which the webmaster was building links for. Well the change happened and now from what I am seeing you must bulid links for the keywords which you would like to rank well for. This means building links for every keyword or term you would like to rank well for. What will be nice is there will be less competition in the long tailed keyword department so keywords which have low traffic will be a waste of time for most webmasters and easily taken by the newer webmasters. This also means that you should not spend to much time only working on one keyword and really spread out your SEO and link building campaign to take all keywords which are associated with your main keyword.

Now this is only my view and I would love to hear if you guys have seen any changes in the serps.
