Joseph’s Internet Marketing Tips

In today’s article I decided to put steps seven and eight together because they relate to one another so closely.

Steps seven and eight in creating massive success in your business, are create a blog and a Squidoo/Hub page.

Blogs and Social Media pages are so valuable to your success. I can´t stress that enough.

Through these media you are creating more fresh content that the search engines lust after. And in the case of blog, 250 to 350 words is more than enough. Many blogs rank high in the search engines without being anything more than basically a conversation. Information about what people are doing. You, of course, would put a spin on it and talk about what you are doing in your business.

The real beauty of creating these pages is that you can use all the other media you have already created and embed them directly into them. In the case of your blog you can even have links directed to your site without any conflict of interest.

Now, I do not recommend that you overwhelm your readers with advertisements for your business. Your readers are there for information. If your blog starts looking more like a sales page you will only drive people away. So provide more than a sales pitch. Provide solutions to their problems.

These are very popular sites because they work! If you are trying to drive traffic to your sites, then I urge you not to wait on these steps.

Do a search online and find out how to create a free blog. You will want get a hosting account and many hosting companies offer programs that will literally set up your blog with just a few clicks of your mouse.

Setup accounts with Squidoo and Hubpages. Follow their instructions and viola, you now have three more forms of media to get your information out there to the masses. All of which can be linked back to your site.

Not only that, but by adding your video onto these sites, your page rank and relevancy go up exponentially.

Back links are obviously an advantage in using these forms of media placement. As you create your post, lenses, and pages. Be sure to ping them accordingly. This is nothing more than letting the different search engines know that you have provided fresh new content.

There is one other thing I will touch on in relation to these types of media.

You will soon be establishing your presence online. You will be offering insight as to who you are and forming relationships with potential prospects.

I almost forgot. Do yourself a favor and put an optin box on your blog to gather information. You will want to get the name and email address at a bare minimum.

This way, you will always be able to contact your prospects when you have some new information or product you would like to pass on to your readers. If they are already fans of your post/lenses, you can be sure that they will eagerly open up your emails when you contact them.

Well that´s it. There is only one more step to massive success in your business.

What are the top secret SEO tips?  The truth is there is no secret.  There are only true facts on how you should optimize your blogs, articles, ads or whatever.

Most important is the content.  Content is your best vehicle for driving traffic to your pages.  Quality content will keep traffic flooding to your door.

Research your material.  Find an authoritative voice to learn from and always provide unique content to your readers.

Makes sure you use links.  Back links add value to your site for the search engines.  But don´t just stuff any links into you content.  Be sure that they are related to your subject and are helpful to your audience.  You disperse them in your content or provide a helpful resource box with all your links in it.

While we are on the subject of links, use text links on your website.  When you use image links then don´t give them a name in your alt tags instead give them a number like”jpg 1″.  This way when the image is not relevant the search engines will not count them as ”relevant” to your website. 

Remember that rating number one is not neccessarily the best place to be in the search engines.  When you are placed at the top you typically get a lot of “tire kickers”.  Aim to be somewhere around 3rd or 4th.  the people who tend to look further down the page tend to be more targeted traffic.

One way to rise in the rankings however is to provide fresh content on a regular basis.  Search engines love new content and you will tend to rank higher with quality fresh content supplied on a regular basis.

Go for keyword phrases and not just single keywords.  Again more targeted traffic tends to search for keyword phrases than just one word.
