Part I
People often say to me, “
You’re mad! There is no way you can tap into niches and make money online!!! ” Well I have proven them all wrong time after time. There is indeed a way and this is the way…
Finding your niche is actually rather easy. The simplest way to find a niche is to use the popular software ‘Micro Niche Finder’ which will give you an actual idea of whether it is truly worth creating a website in that particular niche. But since most people do not fancy spending almost a hundred dollars on software, I will show you the old fashioned way of finding a profitable niche.
First I would like to make a recommendation if I may. Get yourself a notebook or a pad of paper and when you see something unusual or come across something which interests you, jot it down. This will help you keep current with the niches.
After you have collected a few ideas such as ‘crazy colour hair straighteners’, you need to plug them into the Google keyword tool. I am going to use the keyword ‘kodo hair straighteners’, so let’s go have a look at what kind of competition we’re up against.

If you want to get leads and sales from the internet, you will have to get on the first page of Google.

This is because that is where the online battle is fought and won.

Statistically, 63% of the most clicks go to the first 5 postitions on the first page in Google, with the number 1 spot, taking 42% of the clicks.

So being on the first page, can mean the difference between your website’s success or failure.

Yet, how do you get on the first page of Google?

You first need to understand that Google is in the business to make money.

When a person searches for something in Google, Google will do its best to bring up the most relevant, authoritative, and popular results it can. And this way the customer stays happy and keeps coming back to Google.

Now, because of this, the websites that are most relevant, authoritative and popular get the first spots.

So, this article will show you what to do to get your website to be those 3 things, and motivate Google to put you on the first page for the world to see.

Relevance

How does Google determine relevance? By finding similarities in the keywords the searcher is using, and the keywords and content on your website.

This is why keyword research is so important. If you know what keywords your prospects are searching for, you need to add them to your website in strategic places, so that Google can justify the relevance of your website.

You see, having a great website is not enough. Google needs to determine that is relative to their audience’s search.

So where do you put the keywords?

Here are the following areas that Google looks for keywords in order to determine relevance:

Most important – Meta tag, H1 title, URL (or at the end of your URL), and in your website content.

Less important – Meta keyword tags (Google no, Yahoo and Bing yes), and your alt tags (images).

Authority

Unfortunately, adding keywords to your site is only 10% of the battle. The greatest challenge is having Google consider your site more authoritative than everyone’s else’s site on the internet.

This is 90% of the battle everyone on the web are fighting right now.

Now, Google judges a site’s authority like most Universities do – it is based on how much your information is cited, quoted or in the case of your website, how many times someone else links to your site.

Generally it is based on how many links you have, the quality and authority of the places linking to you, and all of the different places that are linking to you.

In terms of:

Volume – The more links you have the better.

Quality – The higher authority or “page rank” of the places linking to you the better.

Diversity – The more different places link to you the better.

The good news is, that the more links you can get, the easier it will be to improve your placement in Google. The bad news is, you have put the effort in getting people to link to you.

Popularity

Google has just started to use this as a measure – due to the enormous influence of social media.

So Google does look to see how popular your site is on places like Facebook and Twitter. The more mentions you have the more favorable Google will see your site as something they want to show their searchers.

Therefore, if you can improve your influence by getting more mentions in Facebook, and more tweets and retweets in Twitter, you will improve your chances at getting on the first page.

Now, the $64,000 question is…How can you do all this in less than 30 days?

I will show you 4 steps that will give you the best chance at seeing your website on the first page of Google in the next 4 weeks.

1. Find low to moderate competitive keywords to optimize your site with.

There are many words that have low to moderate competition, yet still get lots of traffic.

The most valuable being local keywords. Local keywords are keywords with a city, town etc. next to it (i.e.: locksmith los angeles, small business coach orange county, etc.).

If you can identify these, and add these to your website, you may be able to get on the first page without any links, in as little as 2 weeks (I had a client do it in 1 and half weeks).

To get accurate keyword data, use the Google Keyword Tool.

2. Write a blog, or article and submit it to blog and article directories.

Blog and article directories are sites that will publish an article you write for free. The best part though, is that if you add a link for your website in your article, it will be counted as a link.

What is miraculous is that there are over 500 of these sites you can send your article to – that will publish them, and give you an instant 500 links to your site.

3. Turn that same blog or article in to multiple types of media.

Did you know that you can convert your blog or article into a press release? Or did you know that you can turn it into a video, RSS feed, classified, Web 2.0 or social media post?

Also there are hundreds of places that host press releases, videos, RSS feeds, classified ads, Web 2.0, and social media posts – that will post yours for free.

The best part is that if you post your material on these hosting sites, and you add a link to your website – Voila! you create a couple hundred…even thousand more links.

4. Use social bookmarking to get Google to count your links quicker.

Once you create all of this content throughout the web, the challenge is waiting for Google to crawl or index these sites so that your links can be counted.

It can take as long as 3 months for Google to do this, which is too long if you want to start getting customers now.

By bookmarking the sites that you post your blog or article to, it sends a signal to the “Google bot” to index that site quicker, helping you get the link credit you deserve.

There you have it. By following this formula, you will be able to get your site on the first page of Google in less than 30 days.

And if you keep at it, you can go after more competitive keywords, and get on the first page of Google – even the number 1 spot, if you continue and do not give up.

    Using Google Adwords to Drive Traffic to your Website

    Highly targeted traffic is one of the most important entities in the internet universe. Any website owner or administrator recognizes the importance of driving traffic to a website.

    Highly targeted traffic is one of the most important entities in the internet universe. Any website owner or administrator recognizes the importance of driving traffic to a website. The success of any website does not rely entirely on the site itself. You may have a terrific idea for a website, offer an excellent product or service, or have an exceptionally designed site with superb content, but if you do not use the right strategies to advertise, your site would not attract the high traffic you need. Attracting targeted traffic is a task that should be taken seriously for any site to succeed or make a profit. Fortunately, there are internet-marketing tools that help the website marketer to drive traffic to his website. One of the most significant, and effective, of these tools is Google’s Adwords. Adwords is one of Google’s advertising services.

    How does Google Adwords work? Google is the largest search engine on the web receiving over 200 million queries each day through its various services. As Google is the most popular search engine today, webmasters are keen on having their websites achieve a higher ranking in the search engine results it provides. A high ranking can mean high traffic for that website. The search engine results page is also a great venue for advertisers to promote a product or service through ads and links. Consequently, Google launched its Adwords service, as a way for businesses to advertise products and services to a targeted audience. Google Adwords can guarantee instant traffic. In this service, Google displays relevant text based ads within its search engine results page termed as “Sponsored Links”. Whenever a particular keyword is searched on, these relevant links appear in a separate section giving excellent exposure to the sites listed.

    How do you use Google Adwords? First, you have to open an account with the Google Adwords Service. Then, you should indicate your target language and country. This is important because you would not want your products advertised in countries where your product or service cannot be sold. Afterwards, you should now create an ad group. This involves designing the ad, selecting keywords and determining maximum cost per click that you are willing to spend and defining bid amounts. The most important step in creating a successful Adwords campaign is selecting an effective title tag that will catch the attention of your target audience. The title tag, generally a short phrase, is the most important part of your Adwords campaign so make sure that it is attractive and catchy. You should describe the website clearly and accurately. The most effective advertising conveys a clear message to the target audience. With a clear message, you will be attracting qualified leads, which can eventually convert to sale. Thus, the importance of selecting the right keywords cannot be overemphasized.

    There are keyword variations you can adapt to reach more prospects. Using these varieties, misspellings and derivatives can help increase the chance of your ads being served. Broad match is targeting keywords in a loosely defined manner. Here, the ads appear based on the keywords that have been queried by other users as opposed to exact match, which calls for the keyword to match the query exactly. Meanwhile, a keyword phrase set to phrase match will only appear when the exact phrase is searched on. A negative keyword is helpful in filtering unrelated pages.

    After you have decided on what title tag to use in your ad, you must now define a budget in order to maximize exposure. Google Adwords recommend a daily budget for each campaign. However, you should determine a budget that is suitable and affordable. You should also determine the maximum cost per click. Google will offer a recommended cost per click, but you do not have to stick with this. Usually, a number one position is not ideal as it can also attract unwanted traffic and useless clicks. A number two position is more preferred as it can filter useless clicks and provide traffic with a higher conversion rate.

    To conclude, Google Adwords is an excellent strategy and tool in giving your site maximum exposure. Nevertheless, Google Adwords should not be your sole advertising campaign. It will definitely help you find the all-important, highly targeted traffic you need.

    Mandatory FREE Tools For SEO

    The basic presumption of people over SEO is that it cannot be measured.  This could have been true a few years back, but since search engine optimization has become mandatory for websites to make its presence felt in World Wide Web, there are now several tools available to take control of the process in terms of measuring it.

    I just want to list out some of the most required tools to monitor SEO process in detail.

    Sitemap Generator:
    First step of any SEO process is to create a search engine friendly sitemap. All the search engine bots, particularly googlebot will come and look for sitemap.xml in a website. The sitemap makes the crawler’s job easy by letting it know the list pages that a search engine should index or crawl. Xml-sitemap.com provides an online sitemap generator tool which makes any webmaster’s job easy for creating sitemaps.

    Google, Yahoo and Bing Webmaster Tools:

    This is the tool which is used to check the performance of various parameters of SEO process, which are used for sitemap submission and to find the crawl stats, internal links, external link details, site links details, and other diagnostic tools. This is one of the most important tools for any SEO process, and it never provides any wrong information.

    Google Analytics:
    It is one of the best freebees available from Google for me, next to Google Apps email. This tool helps us to track and analyze the traffic data in depth. The traffic details from search engines and other reference sites, geographical data and visitors’ type of data, and much much more. Use it to understand the importance of it. It is one of the unavoidable tool for any internet marketing campaign not just for SEO.

    Google Keyword Tool:
    For any SEO campaign, you need to identify the right keywords and need to strengthen the same. It requires a great amount of skill and knowledge to choose the right keyword.  More than skills, it requires huge data to find the right words. I don’t feel anyone can give it better than Google. Google Keyword tool is the one which can help us with valuable data.

    SEO Browser:
    Search engine crawlers won’t be able to read the contents on images or flash. It can read only the texts. In order to know how bots of various browsers see the content on our site, we can use seo-browser.com. Use it to see your site like how the Google, Yahoo and Bing sees it, and optimize the on-page contents.

    Firefox Keyword Position Checker:
    It is the handy SEO plug-in provided for Firefox, once the SEO process has been started, you have to see the progress of your keywords from some page to the top. This tool will let you know the website position for any particular set of keywords.
    There are hundreds of SEO tools which are paid and freely available in the net. I am sure no one will believe me if I say those are useless. I have tried paid and non-paid versions of different tools, nothing seems to be fitting my requirement. Something is always missing. Accuracy is another issue with these tools.

    Contact us if you need a SEO analysis report developed by SEO experts and not by some codes. It is absolutely free from us.

    Learning a New Internet Marketing Language

    Learning new internet marketing language!!I wasn’t going to mention this as it is not so much about copywriting but about using words in general to influence people. However I think it is such a powerful factor in successful communication that it needs to be mentioned.The language that you use to talk in your writing is [...]

    Learning new internet marketing language!!
    I wasn’t going to mention this as it is not so much about copywriting but about using words in general to influence people. However I think it is such a powerful factor in successful communication that it needs to be mentioned.The language that you use to talk in your writing is not just about being enticing, about conveying emotion and gripping the reader, it is also about proving you are one of them!!

    We all want to be with people who are like us, who like the same things and hold the same opinions, we connect with those kind of people. So if you are talking to someone about a topic and you mention a word or phrase they are used to hearing they will pick up on that and connect with you, if you use words and phrases they are not used to hearing that will create a barrier between you.

    For instance in the Forex market then a downwards trend is a ‘bear market’ and an upwards trend is a ‘bull market’, if you didn’t know anything about the Forex language you would not use those terms and it may go unnoticed. But if you are speaking to someone who knows about the Forex market then they’ll pick up if you use those terms straight away!

    This is down to research, hang out at the popular forums and read the largest sites in the industry and try to notice any terms that they use you would not normally see, write them down then sprinkle them into your writing to create credibility and a bond with the reader.

    Write first, edit later.

    When we write we constantly second guess ourselves, constantly edit things, not only does this make us incredibly unproductive, but it can really destroy your writing style. If you write in one long stint without stopping or editing, then only go back and edit afterwards, you won’t believe the positive effect this will have on your writing!

    Your writing will flow so much better, your ideas will be fresher, your unconscious mind will guide you to write much better work. Then go back and edit like crazy, once you have the framework down you can start to polish it, go back to put in power words as mentioned later, compare things using a simile, make things more ‘punchy’, it is so much easier when you have a frame to build upon.

    Some people believe in this so much they even turn their monitor off as they type to reduce the urge to edit their words of profit!

    Why article writing and submission is required?

    Article Marketing that is Article writing and submission is one of the best internet marketing strategy to promote online business. It is more effective because when someone search something in the internet they prefer to search article on the subject. Article is the best source of information on any subject. An article is written to describe anything or any situation in details from ins to out ups to down.

    How to write article for submission?

    We can write article manually that is writing on paper or typing into computer by thinking. Again we can write article by many softwares like article rewriter and spinner. Article rewriter rewrites any article so that it seems a new article. Again article spinner make many article from one article as if they all are differents articles.

    How to submit article ino article directory?

    Similarly we can submit article manually like going to each article directory, sign up there by filling one after another fields and submitting the article there filling all fields of article content. Article submission may also be done by using article submission software where we set the article and authors information and the software visits the article directory and submits article there automatically as command was given in the software.

    Why manual article writing and submission is the best way?

    Although article may be written and submitted manually and automatically. still the best option is doing it manually. Using software can not do the things as like as manual work. Software can do only as per the command given during the software preparation. Many things are changing in article directories on a regular basis. The software can not follow the updated system if its script is not updated. Again good article directories take the measures so that software can not perform there. In that case software only handles some article directories those are not upto the mark.

    So there is no substitute of manual article writing and submission, though we can try to learn how software handle things for our knowledge only.
