SEO is one of the most effective things you can do online, getting your web site optimized in such a way that the search engines will reward you by basically sending traffic your way. SEO is not really that simple, but the bottom line is, if your page is optimized both on page and off, you generally get higher natural search engine rankings, which leads to traffic for you.
If you’ve spent time online recently, you’ve probably read the term “SEO,” or “Search Engine Optimization. But what does it mean, exactly? “SEO” is a term that is used to describe the process by which traffic to a particular site is increasingly generated by search engines by way of search results. The quality of visitor traffic to a site can be measured by analyzing how often a visitor who uses a specific keyword phrase in a search actually performs what is known as a “conversion action.” That is, how often those visitors make a purchase, download materials, request information, or interact with the site in any other way that indicates interest in the product or service the site offers.
Simply put, SEO is marketing through an understanding of how search algorithms work combined with a knowledge of what human users might search for. The end goal is to create a site that contains words for which people will likely search when looking for information such as that contained on your site.

After creating your niche blog, the next step is to have an article to upload into your blog.

An interesting and value added articles are the types of articles you must write as this can attract the readers to visit your blog. If nobody visits your blog, indirectly your adsense programmed will receive not very good response.

To write something which related to your niche blog is a greater test and not an easy job. In fact, there is time where I just run out of ideas!

But not too worry; there is few clear cut ways to get the ideas and inspiration in writing.

First,

Use the google search. By using it, you can look for topics which are relevant to your niche, as per the example I gave last week which was on Sterling Silver Swirl Drop Earrings.

The writer of that blog manages to get a lot of information about earrings in the website. He even obtains important points from the example of articles given and uses it to start his articles.  

Secondly,

Get free articles from the site. There are a few samples which are commonly used. You can get it from articlesbased.com and enzinearticles.com.

The advantages of having these free articles is that you don’t have to change the contents but just need to link the sources as described below.

Is it safe buying online

Tagged Under : , ,

Spend Wisely in the Internet

My wife called this morning asking about how to buy books through the internet. Is the transactions secured? Can the payment guarantee that I will get the book I bought?

This reaction is usual especially for those who are new to the online shopping as they are not confidence and afraid that the website is scam.

I always received calls from my web visitors on how to buy my ebook. But the true is they just wanted to know whether the ebook exist or not. Making sure that it is not fraud!

Actually, I have a few ways to ensure the validity of the websites which sell products or provide services.

What I am going to show you is the method which I often used, although it is not 100% accurate, but it can give you some degree of confidence. In fact, I have been using it to buy few products on internet marketing and personal coaching program.

 

Surveys on online products or services

 

You can get the required information via google search. Through my own experience, I noted that searching information using the “smoke arrester” is quicker.

 

Visit the related website

 

Next, I will visit a few websites which I retrieved from google search to dig up additional information on the said products.

Then, I will make a comparison on the quality of the product. We can also contact or email the webmaster if we need to ask questions or even to get confirmation on the product.

 

Alexa.Com

 

www.alexa.com

www.alexa.com

 
You can obtain the information on any websites via Alexa.com. You can have the facts on how long it has been in existence and what is the page ranking. From here, you can actually know how popular and genuine the website is.
 

 

using Alexa

using Alexa

Whois.sc

 

www.whois.sc

www.whois.sc

 
Whois.sc is use to get the information on who is the website owner.   
 

 

For instance, if we use a product related to an ebook called Working from Home

The website address is http://www.workingfromhome.com/start.htm and it is owned by Ewen Chia.

http://www.workingfromhome.com/start.htm

http://www.workingfromhome.com/start.htm

 

 

 

 

What you need to do is firstly to go to www.Whois.sc.com and you can details about the website you search in the illustration below.

There you have it! That is the best way to check a websites before proceed with your online transactions.

As I mentioned earlier, this may not 100% accurate, but it more or less help me in ensuring the reliability of the website. By using this method also, I convinced my wife to buy the books that she wanted online. The ordered book arrived in just 4 days after that!

You can always try this and moreover it is free!

 

Ok Guys! Best of luck!

How to Build a Niche Blog

My last post on niche marketing received a lot of response from my friends and also blog readers. They keep asking me more information about it.

Actually to be honest, it is not difficult to build a niche blog. The tough part is to search for the information or suitable topic as your niche.

It is good if you can get a right niche which have high search but less competitors. A blog with appropriate niche will definitely attract more attention from the readers.

 An idea for a Niche.

 The first step which you must do in order to get an idea for your niche is to visit amazon.com, ebay.com or magazine.com.

www.amazon.com

www.amazon.com

 

www.magazine.com

www.magazine.com

www.ebay.com

www.ebay.com

 
 

 

 

 

Just look at amazon.com. What is the most money-making product sell via the website? Take an example, an earring.

Assume that we choose Sterling Silver Swirl Drop Earrings. Use the google search engine and search for a number of website or blog which is associated to the earring.

 

  

 

 

 

 

www.google.com

www.google.com The total search for it is about 56,000. Getting below than 100,000 search is good for your blog, but how many of you search the internet a day?Use the SEO Book.com to get the number of search per day. Use Google keyword tool to get the search for the day and the maximum CPC price as illustrated belowhttp://tools.seobook.com/keyword-tools/seobook/index.php

 

https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

 https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

 

If the search value is more than USD2.90, you can build a niche blog based on niche topic Sterling Silver Swirl Drop Earrings.

The similar example which I took from blog www.casio-exilim-slim-digital-camera.blogspot.com based on the casio exilim digital camera.

www.casi-exelim-slim-digital-camera.blogspot.com

www.casi-exilim-slim-digital-camera.blogspot.com

 

 

 

 

 

Is just that the word casio which is used may create problems!

 But, no harm for trying! Try to start a niche blog to get extra income for free. Is that great or what?

 In our next lesson, I will share which you how to add related articles to your niche blog.

Joint Venture in Internet Marketing

Why Internet Marketer (IM) Needs a Join Venture (JV)?

 

Normally JV involves cooperation between 2 or more parties with an objective to add value to the joint business activities.

JV for internet marketer is collaboration between 2 or more IMs for the purpose of improving their sales or services.

 

5 benefits of JV for Internet Marketer

1.      Stimulate your income

A JV arrangement will generally increase the sales of the product or services you offer. In fact, JV also grants some space to those who just new in online business to start a new project with those who already succeed in this field just like my JV pact with Shuth.

2.      Add the number of visitors

When you cooperate with your JV partners you will indirectly build up the number of your clients or visitors. Your mailing list would be larger and the networking can be more extensive as you will have the mailing list of your JV partners as well and vice versa.

3.      Great product

Product will be getting better if you have a JV arrangement. Idea is getting more creative and added more value to the product. For example Jo Han Mok who work together with Dr. Joe Vitale to publish a book called E-Code. The book has given a huge impact to Jo Han Mok who is now an internet millionaire follows the steps of  Dr. Joe Vitale.

4.      Differences in expertise

 

Each JV parties have different skills and expertise. With this competency will directly create a great combination. For instance, Sony Ericsson grouping which have given greater influence to their handphone products. The same goes for me. I have experience in handling a goat farm while Shuth has the ability to build sales letter and website.  

 

5.      Fast track to succeed.

 

JV pact with the already succeed Internet Marketer will indirectly make them excel in their online business.

4 Steps to JV with Internet Marketing Guru

 

There are a few tips which I learn before starting off JV arrangement with internet marketing gurus (although most of them refuse to be known as GURU). The tips are as follows:

1.      Give your view in simple and easy way and email them on the ideas as they are normally busy with a lot of projects. Your explanation must be straight to the point.

2.      Give them a call and inform about the project which you have email earlier. Get their feedbacks on the project. In this meeting you can tell them on the benefits of the projects. Also do tell them of the next get-together. Don’t worry if your earning is not big as long as you can be their JV partners.

3.      Make some amendments to all the items you have discussed and time yourself in completing the task. JV with gurus will definitely take a longer time. Hence, you must be more patient and not too pushy.

4.      Lastly, just start your online JV by building up your website or blog.

 

What are you waiting for? Grab your paper and pen and start brainstorming to search for a suitable projects for JV with the internet GURUS.

Mailing List

Why you need mailing list?

 

According to Wikipedia 

A mailing list is a collection of names and addresses used by an individual or organization to send material to multiple recipients. The term is often extended to include the people subscribed to such a list, so the group of subscribers is referred to as “the mailing list” or simply “the list”.

Why mailing list important?

Mailing list is vital because it can build a unique relationship with your subscriber. If you are selling a product or services, by having a mailing list you will be able to give additional info to your subscribers such as the advantages of using your services, tips, advice or more knowledge on certain issues.

Further example, if you are an insurance agent you can give some tips with regards to the insurance, types of insurance coverage to consider, benefits or claims process. In summary, a whole package about insurance can be given to the subscriber.

This is the power of mailing list and very crucial in online business. In fact you can make extra money from the mailing list.

When you have the list of your subscriber’s email address you could go back to them now and then for any promotions. Nowadays, all giant organization had also collecting the email address of their customers to build their mailing list database. To quote a real example in Malaysia is MPH bookstore. When you register as their Readers’ Circle members you have to enter your email address. This is needed for MPH to send emails to its members to inform on any promotions or sales on their books. As for you the member of MPF readers, an advantage to you as you will be receiving the promotion much faster with less hassle.

Some people reluctant to give their email address for no specific reason. But as an internet marketer you should be creative to talk them into getting their email address to be kept in your mailing list.

In order to create excitement to the readers, you must always give a free eBook for those who register their name and emails as shown in the illustration screen below. 

Some internet marketers do offer extra gifts if the subscriber giving their friend’s emails or invite them to get to know the blog or website.
