Lesson on Relevancy— Link Building

Sunday, May 23rd, 2010

Link building is an essential part of SEO. Having a constant stream of new links on each site’s page brings a beneficial impact on your SEO results. This is because links are good indicator of the site’s popularity and one of the ranking factors set by search engine giants. On one hand, this does not mean that any kind of link will do. Search engines acknowledge whether your links are relevant or of good quality.

Relevance is vital when it comes to link building. This means that the linking page should be similar or with the same topic with your own page. It’s not an easy task to find and establish a link on a similar page but the web space is consists of a massive crowd, never settle for less. Once you had found a perfectly related site, you can contact the owner and ask if he’s interested to exchange links. Remember, links from a relevant authority site is always considered valuable by search engine algorithms.

The anchor text used also plays an important role on effective link building. It should also show relevance. There are blogs that allow keywords on the anchor text via Keywordluv plugin. Most forums allow signature links as per policy so take the opportunity to use a relevant keyword when you get a chance.

A lot have been said about the rules of link building especially about quality vs quantity of incoming links. In general, acquiring few high quality links is more likely to be beneficial than gathering thousands of irrelevant low quality backlinks. Looking at the bigger picture will make you realize that the time spent getting those thousands of irrelevant links should have been spent on creating content for your site. Well, so much for the so called, “strategy”.

To conclude, link relevancy weighs significantly in terms of search engine optimization. Consider finding relevant links as one of the most challenging but rewarding task in search engine optimization.

Feature Browsers

Monday, April 19th, 2010

A web browser has a vital role for every individual who uses the internet, most especially for seo inclined individuals. Like every job, search engine optimization requires tools to make the job easier. Basically, some browsers allow easy tool accessibility that serve a lot of purpose in search engine optimization. However, there are more to this that defines a browser’s reliability. Generally, it all depends on what you need and what the browser offers.

Firefox. This has been one of the original and most use free Internet browsers of both seo and regular internet users. A few outstanding features include tabbed browsing, an integrated search engine and many add–ons of all types.

Firefox 3.6, the latest version of the browser allows you to personally design the browser and make it your own through personas. There are over 35,000 personas available for free in the Firefox database. I’ve used the old version but the main disappointment I found was its speed. However, with the new version available I could say that Firefox 3.6 is the fastest Firefox there is. This made me consider Firefox again.

Chrome. Google’s streamlined and speedy browser offers strong integrated search and an intriguing alternative to Firefox and Internet Explorer. Google Chrome takes a unique approach to browsing the web, combining top notch features with speed, compatibility, and simplicity. I’ve been using Chrome for 5 months now and one thing I enjoy about it is its speed.

Chrome got the first idea of browser’s personalization. If Firefox got personas, Chrome has themes. During its initial release, the main weakness that chrome has is its inability to add plug-ins and tools. But after receiving a lot of inquiries, Google provided a solution through Google extensions. Now I could say that Chrome has redeemed itself and got back in the race.

Internet Explorer. This web browser outperforms its ancestors with tighter security, private browsing and a clean look. Version 8 provides variety of add–ons for security, time savers, browsers and entertainment purposes. It also incorporates tabbed browsing, integrated search window and private browsing mode—that prevents your computer from picking up temporary Internet files, form data, cookies, usernames, and passwords. Internet Explorer is a good browser with great features. Additional features in version 8 make it even better and definitely worth your consideration.

Site Speed included as Ranking Factor

Saturday, April 10th, 2010

Google has officially announced that site speed is included in their ranking qualifications.

According to the statement posted on the legitimate Google blog, “You may have heard that here at Google we’re obsessed with speed, in our products and on the web. As part of that effort, today we’re including a new signal in our search ranking algorithms: site speed. Site speed reflects how quickly a website responds to web requests”

We all can’t deny how obsess Google is in terms of service development and it all makes sense to include the site’s speed as one of Google’s ranking factors. Besides, it is one of the things that define user experience. Just like what they have mentioned in their site, “Faster sites create happy users and we’ve seen in our internal studies that when a site responds slowly, visitors spend less time there. But faster sites don’t just improve user experience; recent data shows that improving site speed also reduces operating costs”. In this case, it is eventually a win-win situation for both Google and their users.

Although they have formally included speed with their ranking factor, the search engine giant assured that it doesn’t carry as much weight as the relevance of a page. The company says that less than one percent of search queries have been affected by the change.

This is another good example of how Google create changes towards an efficient and convenient internet environment.

Google on TV?

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

We have been used to see Google on our everyday web searches, be it on desktops, netbooks, and mobile devices. As the web space get bigger, Google known as the search giant, continuously launch and introduce innovations and upgrades to serve users on a higher level. I guess there is no reason to be surprised at all, if Google decided to step into another level and get into one of our favorite entertainment medium, the TV.

According to The Wall Street Journal, Google is testing a new television programming search service in conjunction with Dish Network.

The current testing targets to incorporate the Internet content with the traditional TV. Just to have an idea how would it look like, it would run on TV set-top boxes that are attached to the Internet and use Google application. Basically, it will enable users to create personalize lineups of shows from the satellite-TV and You tube or with other video hosting websites.

No doubt, once Google is done with their new project, it will definitely change our TV viewing experiences. Now, I’m thinking about the next thing they’re going to try.

One..Two..Three-way links

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

If you’ve been in the web space for awhile, you know how links matter in achieving good position in search engines. This is known to be one component of search engine optimization that needs time and effort aside from the presence of killer content of course. Now, let’s get to know these links well to figure out what’s best for our SEO campaign.

1. One-way link
A one way link is link from a particular website going to another site. This link is the best kind of link to target in acquiring good ranking positions in search engines. However, it is undeniably hard to obtain it, unless your website is valuable enough for another website to link to you without anything in return. Therefore, what you can do is to produce quality and compelling content to make it less difficult for you to gather one way links. Next to do is to search for relevant sites such as forums and blogs that have less quantity of outbound links with decent page rankings and try to provide comments as intelligent as possible. Make yourself sound valuable to increase the chance of getting a precious one way link.
2. Two-way links/Reciprocal links
Reciprocal links happens when two websites agreed to exchange links. The effectiveness of link trading can be said to be questionable. This old SEO technique is fairly recognized by search engines and receives less value in gaining page rankings. However, it’s not totally invaluable, if you want a new site to get crawled easily this kind of link is a good start.
3. Three-way links
Three-way links also known as “pyramid linking” involves three websites. Basically, website 1 links to site 2, website 2 links to 3, then finally, site 3 connects to 1, making a triangular pattern. This link pattern could deceive search engines as one way links, yet too much three-way link building can increase the chance for search engines to detect it and worst get penalized. It is important to know the risks in building this kind of link.
4. Interchanging links
Interchanging links is often applied in link wheels. Basically, 10 or more Web 2.0 sites are involved, website 1 links to site number 2, 2 links to 3 and 3 connects to the last site, forming a circle pattern. Meanwhile, you have your main website that you are trying to promote in the center of the circle pattern; each Web 2.0 sites involve will give a one way link to the center or the main website forming a wheel pattern. It can be said that this interchanging links can put your website in a good ranking position in no time.
Remember, these links have strengths and weaknesses and knowing those can maximize your SEO campaign result.

How to get number one on SEO rankings?

Saturday, December 12th, 2009

Numerous websites, wanted to have the number one rank in the search engines today, such as Google and Yahoo. It is a tough task to do before you reach number one, but with enormous patience and good strategy, page ranking will be yours in time.

Keywords optimization is one way of optimizing your site. It must be present in all paragraphs of your unique article to get rankings. Write article of your interest and ensure that they are unique to avoid duplicate content on the World Wide Web. This will prove that you created your own article including the keywords you want. If your site is about sports, then put all essential keywords, like sporting tips, sports equipments, sports apparel, etc. Submit these articles to article directory site. Do not forget to link your website using the submitted articles so readers will go back to your page, thus, it will increase traffic and money.

One way to produce high-quality articles is to read articles about your choice topic online. Do not copy its content because it’s prohibited. It’s a form of stealing from other sites in which you can be jailed or ban if detected. If you can not write on your own style, use them only as a reference. On this way, you can rewrite them using your own style.

Another option is to have videos on your site. This will not help you to get top on the ranking but it will serve as an advertisement of your site to create huge site traffic.

If you have product and service site, another way to get ranking is to post reviews on your site. It can be testimonials on services, reliability report, consumer satisfaction, etc. On this method, consumers will know that you are offering reliable product and services. Therefore, they will come back to you from time to time. And lastly, these satisfied consumers will refer your site to their friends. It will create more and more traffic because it has been tested by their friends.

Search Engine Optimization has a lot of task to do before reaching the top. Do not loose hope, put more energy for the job and do not push yourself too hard. Always remember that today’s well-known website did not start as big as they are now. You and these sites have one in common. Both of you as well as the other rising websites begin from nothing. They strive hard before they get standing. It can 2-3 years now, but interest in SEO is definitely the key to success. Do not waste time, use your idle days to study and enhance your skill in Search Engine Optimization.

Social Meeting Survey – Full Compehension in the Business World

Monday, October 12th, 2009

Its always amazing to see two heads of a coin – with neither visible or apparent

Recently the prestigious firm Citibank conducted an “in depth”  survey of standard run of the mill business owners and contacts regarding the role of Social Bookmarking sites in their current and future advertising and ad campaigns.

It might be simply said that you might ask a blind person….. to describe an ad on the page of a newspaper

Its an amazing fact when interacting with what might be considered “successful businesses”  even those run by younger management.   Simply put most are clueless.  Even if words and phrases such as “Google Analytics ” are thrown around those are buzz words, just like name dropping at cocktail parties – only to tell the truth the teller of tall tales – or of friends and acquaintances has some idea of what and who they are talking about it , and the concepts involved in it all

Its an amazing fact in this brave new world .   Clueless at basic concepts , facts . tools and paradigms

There aught to be a  law against such stupidity and arrogrance

Not unlike rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic in 1912 or serving drinks while the ship sinks

Lol lots of luck

What can be best said is that it represents the watershed of opportunity and opportunity for SEO practitioners and those businesses who have the good fortune and insight as well as insights to work together and along , along in concert with their SEO people and agencies
Listen to the wind you can hear the phrase “Boy did I get an unbelievable deal at xxxx newspaper”
I am really taking them for a ride
Oh really ?

Did you grandmother never tell you the parable of putting all your eggs into one basket or even two baskets  ?

Marketing Times are Changing

Thursday, October 1st, 2009

Newspapers are a case in point.  Newspapers and the whole industry are in decline many say.  A flux say others.  A change is as good as a rest .  Yet to many of the hot shots in the newspaper ( ad)  services its a time of terror.  Its even gotten to the point that a prominent British newspaper recently called the freebee generation spoiled brats who want something for nothing.

On the other hand maybe it is a a case of an old business model with clueless management riding the wave , milking ad monies . revenues and income to death.  Look at the TV industry in America as an example.  Mindless fodder all put out , pablum to soothe the masses , all to sell ads.  In the same way newspapers became flyers with articles.  The sad part of that the major national newspapers ( who may well not survive in present forms and size), are used as the research materials of most of the other media – TV etc and are simply hashed and rehashed.   Has it yet not occurred to the high paid television executives that while they are planning their campaigns with fancy colored graphs and charts, calculating to the ot nots that kids are no longer watching TV hours a day.  People who do not have tv anymore really do not miss it they say.  Waste of time , low quality , all they need to read – be it even current events can be easily had on the internet – you tube and the like.  On top of that young males report that on the internet with a messenger service ICQ program -Yahoo , MSN Messenger in its current renamed form , Yahoo Messenger of Eyeball Chat – they at least have a chance of scoring with a girl.

Yes the times they are a changing.  Its a new medium with new tools.  Better get on the bandwagon.
