I'm going to get straight to the point here. Social bookmarking can be tedious (some would say boring) and time consuming but it is an important part of search engine optimization (SEO) because it can provide valuable backlinks and those backlinks have the opportunity to be spread virally as your bookmarks are shared.

But how do you do social bookmarking?

On a simple level you could just post your social bookmarks using a tool like SocialBot. While this can be effective it doesn't

Content Is King

2012-01-03T14:16:00.001Z

If you didn't know it already, Google thinks content is king and you will need to tap into this mindset if you are to succeed at SEO.

This can include content that you create and then post on external sites (with a link back to your site) such as articles, videos, press releases and podcasts. It can also include content that you place on your own site and ideally, it should include fresh content such as a regularly updated blog. But, you can also include relevant newsfeeds, videos and blogs

Social Bookmarking Made Easy

2010-10-10T18:29:00.002+01:00

If I could show you a way to get thousands of social bookmark backlinks on autopilot and I also told you it was free, would you be interested?

Perhaps the first thing that might concern you is, are these backlinks created by a bot and will they look natural? But the answer would be NO - each bookmark is created by a human and YES - it will look entirely natural, because it is.

I guess it won't be long before you're asking, OK how does it work? I thought you'd never ask...

SocialAdr is a network of internet marketers coming together for the purpose of making social bookmarking super, super easy and highly effective. Free members have to login each day and post their bookmark quota for the day (takes 5 minutes each day) and in return, they earn credits which means other people will get to post their bookmarks.

But, there is also a pro option that becomes a complete no-brainer if you are a busy internet marketer with profitable websites that you wish to promote. Starting at $40 per month you can select the 'lazy' option which means you can get over 1600 backlinks a month without doing anything. All you have to do is enter the title, url and description of the pages you want bookmarked and these will be given to the free members to do (this is how free members earn credits).

Simple! Effective! Brilliant!

Auto Backlink Bomb

2010-10-02T07:01:00.002+01:00

I was fortunate enough to be a beta user of Auto Backlink Bomb and this week it was deemed ready for commercial launch - and let me tell you - soon EVERYBODY is going to be talking about this great piece of software. And here's why:

One of the hot areas for building backlinks right now is forum profiles - lots of companies are charging around $25 per 100 profile backlinks. And that's because they are regarded as high authority backlinks by the search engines. And the reason there is a market for outsourcing this SEO function is that it is very time consuming. You have to:

- Find the forums
- Sign up
- Verify your email
- Go back and post your links
- Create RSS feeds to publicise your links to the search engines

Well here's the thing - Auto Backlink Bomb does all of the above on autopilot. And it costs just $57.97 one-off cost.

It comes pre-loaded with around 1500 forum links (that's $375 of outsourcing) but it also has a link scraper for finding your own profile links across five different platforms so you can literally build unlimited profile links AND you can find ones that nobody else is posting to. As a bonus you also get a Google Rank Finder tool, a hubpage comment posting tool and a great book on SEO from one of the world's leading SEO specialists.

Wow!

But, it gets better than that even. Each time you have done a bunch of baclink postings, you can mash them automatically into an RSS feed and ping your feed to some of the top feed aggregators - and this is literally all one-click stuff. The bot just works in teh background, posting away while you get on with something else - and actually you don't even need to be there because the software works in synch with your decaptcher account or if you prefer, you can just skip sites that require captcha.

Folks, this software is game changing!

As I have been using it for a month or so now, there are some really cool SEO strategies that you can use this tool for but I'll save those for another post. Once you've got your software, check back here and I'll have some awesome backlinking strategies explained here for you. I'm also working on some great link packets that I am offering free and exclusively to anyone who buys the software from the link below.

Buy Auto Backlink Bomb

After your purchase please Contact Me with your receipt details and I will guarantee you a packet of at least 500 fresh and clean forum urls across at leats 2 platforms - you might not realise it yet but this bonus alone is worth at least the price of the software, if not more.

Keyword Research - My New Favorite Tools

2010-09-25T14:14:00.003+01:00

Keyword research should be the primary activity of any website or blog owner who wants to be found via search engines. The challenge is to find keywords that have low to moderate competition alongside decent search volume. Well, I've been using some new tools to help me do this and let me give you a little taster of what happened to me this week.

I found a search term with 27,000 monthly searches (based on Google's estimates) and zero competition. By zero compeition, I mean no other website had the three strike metric:

- Exact phrase

- In URL

- In Title

This means that if I can create a page that is LSI keyword rich that has my exact phrase in the title, url, heading and webpage content, I am not only likely to be on the first page of Google but I am likely to be number 1 on Google.

So maybe I should stop gloating and tell you how I did it. First of all I used Keyword Ninja and entered a generic search term related to the niche I was researching. And the software created a keyword rich csv file of about 220 related keywords in about 2 minutes flat.

I downloaded the csv file to my computer and worked my way through them. When I saw one that looked like a buying term, I ran it through Micro Niche Finder 5 to see how many searches there were, how many exact matches (keyword only) an the strength of competition.

In less than an hour I had discovered 8 excellent keywords all with decent search volume and low competition but my eyes nearly popped out when I saw my gem - 27,000 monthly searches and zero competition, surely not.

So I ran my three footprint searches through Google and checked its keyword tool. Yep, the data all matched.

Not surprisingly, that keyword phrase got turned into a webpage pretty quickly (and LSI rich). And now I am waiting for it to get indexed by Google - and I have created a couple of backlinks just to help it on its way. I will let you know how I get on.

SEO For Dummies

2010-09-18T16:07:00.003+01:00

It amazes me how many people involved in internet marketing really have no grasp of SEO. You know how some people just switch off as soon as someone mentions math or finance - well, it seems that many people are just the same with SEO. It seems they think its too complicated.

That's why we developed our Traffic Mania System - it's own version of SEO for Dummies but it doesn't use the phrase SEO at all. It is a system that walks people through the process of generating free website traffic by doing a few simple things:

- Organizing your own website
- Creating great content
- Distributing that content to the right places

You can do as little or as much as you want depending on how competitive your niche is and how much traffic you want. By following the Traffic Mania System you will generate immediate, targeted website traffic as well as build high quality backlinks for better search engine ranking.

And it really is as easy as 1-2-3 - why not check it out and see what it can do for your website.

How Important is On-Page SEO?

2010-09-12T12:57:00.001+01:00

In the never ending quest for backlinks to boost a website’s search engine rankings, many website owners are often oblivious to the importance of on-page SEO. In fact, it is probably the most important element of search engine optimization but for some reason, its importance has been lost amidst the noise of so called SEO experts extolling the virtues of building backlinks.

If on-page SEO is done well, very few backlinks are required for a website to rank highly with the search engines. Here are the 10 key rules of on-page SEO.

Rule #1 – Understand that each main page of your website needs to be optimized. It is not a website that is ranked by search engines but each individual page.

Rule #2 – Identify the keywords for each main page of your website. Aim for between three and five keywords and make sure that they are keywords that have relatively high search volumes.

Rule #3 – Make these keywords the meta tag title of your page using the syntax keyword#1 keyword#2 keyword#3 etc.

Rule #4 – Use a meta tag description of the page that is a call to action based on the keywords you are targeting. It is this description that will often decide whether a searcher will click through to your site or not.

Rule #5 – Create a meta tag that includes your keywords for that page but also try to include one or two longtail keywords. These are search phrases that people might use when searching for the product, service or information you are providing.

Rule #6 – Develop content on the page that includes each of your keywords at least once. These keywords must appear in the context of the whole page and must not be used excessively.

Rule #7 – Repeat this process for each main page of your website that you want people to find via search engines.

Rule #8 – Ensure that each main page of your website can be easily found by the search engine spiders via the menus on your site and the internal link structure that you create.

Rule #9 – Create a sitemap of your site in both XML and HTML format.

Rule #10 - Submit details of the XML sitemap to Google via your webmaster account (this is free to set up if you don’t yet have one) and include your HTML sitemap on at least the homepage of your site and preferably at the foot of each page.

And that’s about it. Your site will now be optimized to a greater degree than the vast majority of sites on the internet and the search engines will like your site a lot. This means that the number of backlinks required in order for your site to rank highly in the search engines will be relatively low compared to sites that are poorly optimized.

The Best Free Traffic Program - Ever!

2010-09-04T11:07:00.002+01:00

I was reading an online marketing forum this week and a poster had asked, "I have new website with a great product, where can I get tons of free traffic from?".

Well, as it happens I know of a free traffic program where you can not only get tons of free traffic but where it is actually highly targeted traffic. Imagine that, people are looking for exactly what you are offering and you can get them to come to your site, absolutely free.

The name of this free traffic program? Google.

You see, if you have your own website or blog and a great product or service the best way to get tons of free, targeted internet traffic is to work really, really hard at getting your website listed high on Google for your targeted keywords. Sure, it might not be instant traffic but it is certainly free traffic.

And how do you get your website ranking high on Google for your targeted keywords? You do good SEO. first off, you do the right on-page SEO (Google tell you exactly how to do this by the way) and then you work hard to build up lots of high quality backlinks by doing article marketing, directory submissions, forum commenting, blog commenting, press releases, RSS submissions, social bookmarking and so on. That's the way to get tons of free, targeted website traffic.

But I guess that particular poster didn't really want tons of free traffic. What s/he was probably looking for was a quick fix. We live in an age where people want everything, for free and they want it right now. Life just isn't that easy.

Google is a great free traffic program but it takes a bit of effort to make it work for you and your website.

SEO Traffic Tip - Press Releases

2010-09-01T08:12:00.003+01:00

Press releases are a great way to get backlinks to your site and also to get massive exposure for your business. The internet is hungry for news and a good press release will get syndicated across the world wide web, often on high PageRank sites and each time there will be a link back to your site.

The Problem
Over 30% of press releases don't get published and it takes a long time to submit your press release to all the press release distribution sites.

The Solution
Use Press Bot - it is a great piece of software that automates the submission process. At just $29.95 it is a steal as this is less than most distribution services will charge you for just one press release submission. But with Press Bot you can make unlimited submissions and help drive your website to the top of the search engine rankings.

If the price tag is too steep for you or you want to really see the power of Press Releases before you invest any money - Free-Press-Release.com offer a great service. For just $1 you can get your Press Release published WITH a backlink to your site from a high PR page.

SEO Traffic Tip - Forum Commenting

2010-08-29T15:15:00.004+01:00

The quest for website owners looking for backlinks to improve their search engine ranking continues with forum commenting. There are a number of discussion forums around the web and it is important to find forums that are:

1. Relevant to the theme of your website.

2. DoFollow - you can check this when you are in the forum by right clicking on 'view source'. Once that screen appears, hit Ctrl+F and search for nofollow. If no matches are found you are on a DoFollow forum.

Most forums will allow you to set up a profile that includes a link to your website or blog but most importantly, you should create a signature that includes a link to the website you want backlinks for. Once that's done, all you need to do is contribute to the forum on a regular basis and engage in the discussion without trying to promote your site - the link to your site will be in the signature attached to each post.

Forums tend to have a long shelf-life and will give you the chance to build up permanent backlinks, often from high PageRank pages.

SEO Traffic Tip - Search Engine Submission

2010-08-26T14:12:00.003+01:00

Of course, one of the key things to being listed in the natural search engine rankings is to get your site listed and spidered by the search engines in the first place. Many search engines reference Google and Yahoo so getting listed by both of these first is critical.

Open a webmaster account with Google, verify your site ownership and submit a sitemap (preferably XML) - do not do any other submissions to Google and therefore, any free submission sites should be avoided if you are doing your own SEO and dealing with Google directly - Google will spider and list your site and your XML sitemap will tell Google how often it should revisit. If you have a commercial site, getting listed in the Yahoo directory is a paid for service but worth it.

But you should also submit your site to the other smaller search engines so that they know about your site and can list you. The frequency of resubmission will depend on how frequently your site is updated but generally, quarterly is about right for most sites (monthly if you update your site content frequently). There are two options:

1. Pay someone else to make these search engine submissions for you - Trellian's Priority Submission Service offers good value for money and is reliable.

2. Do it yourself by buying your own automated submission software. If you are serious about your SEO, this is a no-brainer. You choose which engines to submit to and how frequently to schedule the resubmits. You can submit just your homepage submit other pages of your site. You can also choose to submit to other classified listing sites. And if you have more than one site, the cost of your first submission will already put you in profit against paying for submissions. There are two tools we would recommend (both are great) - Traffic Seeker and Submit Wolf - both have free trials that enable you to try before you buy.

Realistically, if you are genuinely trying to get your website ranked higher by the search engines, buying your own search engine software for a one-off cost makes a lot of sense and if you are feeling really entrepreneurial, you can also offer a submission service to others once you have the software.

SEO Traffic Tip - Articles

2010-08-25T16:09:00.005+01:00

Articles provide a great opportunity to get one-way backlinks to your site but there are a few downsides.

1. You have to write 'unique' articles - well, here's a tip for you. Write one article (or take a relevant article from a PLR package) and spin it. But rather than spin it with an expensive article spinner, use Google translator. Convert your article from English to German (the German syntax tends to work best with English) then copy and paste your German article back into English using Google translator. All you then have to do is tidy it up a bit before submitting to article sites.

2. Ah yes, the second downside, you have to submit your article to article sites in order to get it published and this can be very time consuming. Here are your options:

- Do it manually (good luck, but if you go down this route focus on submitting to high PageRank sites)

- Use an article submission service (we recommend iSnare as a reliable, low-cost option)

- Buy low-cost article submission software that automates the process for you. We recommend Instant Article Submitter as the best value submission tool on the market (and it currently comes with Instant Article Creator as a free bonus).

SEO Traffic Tip - Blog Commenting

2010-08-25T15:35:00.003+01:00

This backlink generating technique is simple but highly effective. Find a list of DoFollow blogs - OK, here it is - and visit those that are relevant to your website's niche or content. Post brief comments that are relevant to the article but DON'T put your link in the comment ONLY put your website link in the field allowed on the comment form. This will mean when anyone clicks on your name it will bring them to your website but also, because it is a DoFollow blog (like this one), it will also give you a backlink for your site.

Try to visit each blog on a regular basis because search engines will give more credence to links from more recent articles than old ones and of course, each time you post on a blog you can deeplink to a different page of your website.

SEO Traffic Tip - Directory Submission

2010-08-25T15:21:00.003+01:00

One of the quickest and easiest ways to get one-way backlinks to your website is via directory sites. Until recently, the process of submitting to directories manually has been very time consuming, often only to discover that some directories only offer paid for links and others require a reciprocal link before accepting your site. Here are some really effective shortcuts:

1. Easy Submits - A free to use service that semi-automates the submission process. Simply enter your information once and then work your way through the list of directories via their submission tool with most submissions requiring just a single click or sometimes the entry of captcha code before clicking. You can also select directories based on PageRank.

2. DeepLinkerPro - For a one-time fee of just $67 this great piece of software takes the automation process a stage further, allowing you to create a series of deeplinks into various sections of each directory.
