So is onpage SEO really that difficult?

February 7th, 2010 dansomers

“SEO” maybe a term that could either confuse you or just something that your are not that interested in doing, but I’m sorry to say that you do need just a little knowledge about SEO or your website will simply fail. Getting traffic is not as hard as you may think and the hardest part of SEO is really quite simple.

The main part of SEO is what most “SEO experts” called on page optimisation and this is finding keywords that are suited to your website or “niche” that you think people would be searching for on the search engines like Google or Bing. A lot of website owners should do on-page SEO when they build the website by using the <*title> tags or building a article around certain words that you think could draw attention to your website.

When choosing keywords you need to find out what you think your potential viewers would be searching for and then placing those keywords into your website. You can pay companies or experts hundreds if not thousand of dollars but with a little bit of time and research, you can do the same job and more than likely have the same results than any expert can do for you.

The most important start to optimising your website is by using the title tags, and if your unsure what these are then you really need to research the basics of html before your attempt to get a website up and running, a website without the proper coding or meta tags can cause huge damage to your website.

A example of meta tags that you should be using for your website:



<*meta name="Description" content="This would be something about your business or website, keep it short " />




<*meta name="Keywords" content” Any keywords that you think would benefit your website, but don’t use loads of keywords " />




<*title>This title tag is very important but you need to have different title on every page of your website while keeping it short and to the point.</title>






Now you have your meta tags set up, you need to do some keyword research and you can do this with ease, with the help of Google Keyword Tool while also using Google for your researching also. Go over to Google Keyword Tool and work out which keywords you think would be useful for your website, if you have a website about Dogs then you might want to target keywords like:


+ How to look after a dog


+ How to feed a puppy


+ My puppy has worms


What I tend to do first is search is Google for a term I think might get traffic to my website, if you Google “My puppy has worms” and all you get in the page listings is Yahoo answers, Ezine Articles or forums then you know that you can dominate that keyword phrase as there isn’t many websites using that phrase, then you need to have a look in the Google keyword tool to see how many people would be searching that phrase, if you find its only a small number searching for those keywords then you will be wasting you time but if you see that Google shows that thousands of people are looking for the term” My puppy has worms” then you know that you can use those keywords on your website either in your title tags or using the words in a article or write up about your product. Once you have filled up a page using this method of keyword research then you  can do the same on your other pages, this takes a bit of time but the rewards can be fantastic and the main thing about doing this is that you are saving yourself a lot of money.


I hope you enjoyed this article


p.s please remove * from the tags if you wish to use them

Simple Seo strategies that you need to do for 2010

							
 January 25th, 2010  dansomers 

			
							

								
Now everybody you listen to is talking about SEO strategies that work really work. There are several guys talking on the web –in blogs and diverse forums- about search engine optimization and how to rank better in search engines. Get visibility is more than words, or even say you are an expert planning to have a good position in search engine. I would like to share with you some incredible tips about those SEO strategies that are going to make your business more robust for the forthcoming months.


Update your site map:


This is a very simple tip about search engine optimization but something that is going to set a new tendency in 2010 is that search engines –Google, Yahoo, Bing, Excite and others- is they are going to use more and more site maps as a mechanism to index websites. If your website doesn’t have yet a site map try to create one or update your current site map.


 -Improve your ranking through ALT Text: 


This is an excellent detail that you should consider when you are optimizing your website with images. You should know that your images with     alt text are crawled by search engines, but if your images are not properly optimized you could be losing the opportunity to rank better. This optimization is basically related to include your keywords in your alt text, so that everything can work fine and more Internet users can find your website even when they are searching images.


 -Only use Flash if it is necessary: 


Most experienced –and some novices- SEO professionals are aware about the difficulty of developing web pages in flash. It could lead you to several problems related to get traffic because your site in flash won’t be indexed by search engines. The most advisable SEO strategy you should execute is not use flash in your home page, specifically in header menus, frames or things like that. You could use flash in tiny banners and other things that don’t obstruct the crawling of your website or blog.

Im a bloody idiot and love to steal content from websites

							
 January 17th, 2010  dansomers 

			
							

								
Please do excuse the title on this post, but I want to discuss something that affects all bloggers, web designers and forum owners or anyone that posts original and unique content. I am talking about plagiarism or as I prefer to call it…………. Thieving Untalented Scum!


If you see this article on any website OTHER than http://mysiteranked.com then this is a stolen article


Some may think that comment is a bit strong but when you build a blog or a website and you find out that someone has stolen the content you have spent time writing, only to find out someone lazy shit has just copy and pasted your work to take credit for it themselves.


You might ask why I get annoyed about this?


Google being as big as it is and the most powerful search engine in the world and most likely will be for the next few years at least, cannot tell the difference between the original author and the thief. I sort of see where Google is coming from as I guess that would be next to impossible to tell the difference, Unless they start to index quicker and then only credit the first person that puts the content on the internet. Surely possible?


You may still be thinking why I have entitled this post “Im a bloody idiot and love to steal content from websites”?


Well this is because of a website called page2rss.com which scans a website and this posts it onto page2rss and takes all of your content and every time you update your blog or website it will just have a quick look and steal it all. This in turn makes your unique website or blog…….. Not unique!!


Very soon page2rss will take this article and then post it onto its own website, and of course they will have this title!


Simple as that!  This then means that Google will think that your website is just a load of crap and can hit your pagerank, page listings!


So now I have probably freaked you out a bit, you might be thinking how can I protect myself? And the truth is there isn’t really alot that you can do other than use tools to check your content from time to time and if you find someone stealing your content the email the owner and request they remove the content, You can contact the domain registrar nd sometimes they will delete the domain(godaddy are great for it) or the only other option is to contact the hosting company.


Some tools you can use to find out if someones stealing your content :


http://copyscape.com which is one of the well known plagiarism online detector but the only downside is that they only let you  see the first 5/6 websites and the rest you have to sign up and pay to use it. I like copyscape for a quick check if I see a website I might buy.


The Tool I prefer is http://www.articlechecker.com I have used this nearly two years and it has helped me find a couple of scum bags where copyscape has let me down.


I hope this post will help you to find out if someone is stealing your content and be able to take action if you need to.

Getting Traffic and Money from Facebook can it be done?

							
 January 9th, 2010  dansomers 

			
							

								
I have noticed a ebook that is floating around  the webmaster forums and I thought I would share some of the contents of it with you as I have seen people paying a stupid amount of money for something that doesn’t really give much of a return plus it can get you into to some bother if you do it to the wrong sort of person.But read on and comment if you do have success!


As you know Facebook probably is the biggest social networking website on the internet at the moment and more than likely to be in top place for quite a while. Jump over to Alexa and check out its rating and you will notice it’s in the top 10 websites in the world. (Impressive, considering the idea was stolen in the first place).


Have you ever wondered how you can earn from this craze and get traffic flooding to your website at all?


Well I’m going to breakdown this ebook and show you how and the idea behind it and you can make up your own mind if you want to try it! Of course to get started you will need a Facebook account and do not use your main account if you have one as you will get banned sooner or later. Click here for Facebook.


Once you set up your new account make sure you leave a link  to your website or affiliate link on your profile , and then get ready to start a Facebook group that will be about your website, business or whatever. You really need to make sure your group is looking good and not just spammed with your domain name or affiliate links. Once you are happy with your group you will need to start adding people by the barrel load and you need to get thousands of users to sign up to your new group right?


This is where your thinking ” I dont have any facebook friends” so how can I do that?


Well this ebook that is floating around simply explains on how to get emails and thousands of them, you simply use a decent email harvester and crawl the internet but targeting emails using the keyword of your choice. There is no point  getting as many emails as you can as you will be wasting your time, if you are selling a “Teach a old Dog new Tricks” ebook then is there any point using emails harvested from the keyword “Body Builders”? You need to target your audience the same as you would promote a website or business! (dont email me asking about harvesting tools but look here).


Once you have got all the emails you like you need to start using them for inviting people to your group and this is where Facebook gets interesting, You would think that being the largest social website in the world and on the internet you would think they would have good privacy and spam protection right?


This is where you can abuse a major flaw in the mighty Facebook, Go to your new group and select the “invite more people” and you see a section where you can just cut and paste emails into Facebook and it will then email those emails a invite to your new group. The good thing about using this method is that once your group gets a couple of thousand of people then it will pretty much grow very fast indeed as your new members will keep inviting new members for you. Now just think to yourself how much traffic you can get to your website by just using this method?


I did try doing this myself and I didn’t really have much success to be honest, I found Facebook quite buggy and slow so I did give up quite easy, but I did get the group to about 300members in a few days and then gave up but you may be able to get a very big group!


Anyone else tried this method or going to try it?


Please do let me know how you get on.

How to gain followers on Twitter while loosing the wastefull nonfollowers

							
 January 7th, 2010  dansomers 

			
							

								
I have given in and decide that I would give in and give  Twitter a chance and see what all the fuss is about. The truth is I did try it a long time ago but didn’t really understand it at all, I still don’t but I do know that it can drive alot of traffic your way indeed.


When I joined to Twitter I got bored with it shortly after joining up, So I started some research………….


I found out the best way and defiantly the fastest way is to use a mass follower tool or script that you simply put in your user name and password and a keyword for your targeted niche. This will then scan Twitter for people to follow and the idea behind this is that you follow as many people as you can and they will then follow you in return, this means every time you “tweet” you have posted to a large audience in one go. (That’s the theory but read on)


I have only found one Twitter tool that I like and I have uploaded here for you. Its a very basic tool but its small and does the job perfect and its not full of crappy spyware. You simply load it up and put your username, password and keyword and leave it to do its stuff and once its done you will see a list of the people you are now following.


So imagine, you have used the tool and following 5k people but you notice after a while out of those your following you only have 1k people following you. ( In my eyes they are a waste and disposable).


Nothing worse than seeing a Twitter account who follows but doesn’t really get followed as it is quite blatant its a spam account so people wont want to follow you!


I have the solution but you will need to use firefox for this to work and you will need to install a plugin called greasemonkey and once you have installed GreaseMonkey you will a script that you will load into greasemonkey and you can get that HERE once you have installed jump to your Twitter account. Once on your twitter account you need to click your following lists(top right) and then look for the little monkey logo in your firefox browser which should be on the bottom left and then right click and choose “Twitter Remove Non-Followers!. This wont show up if you are not on your following list!


Now your ready to get rid of the non return followers and punish them for not sharing the tweeting love.


Now you should be on your following list you should see that some of the twitter accounts are greyed out and these are the ones that are not following back and you simply scroll down and hit the “remove marked”  and then just work your way though them. I have found the best way of doing this it to use the following tool and add say a 1000 accounts and then wait for a few days, then use the grease monkey script to delete non followers. I wouldn’t just add thousands at a time as it will take you ages to delete the non followers.


I hope this helps you out with getting traffic to your website in a couple of days I got a twitter account with over 600 followers so it does work, Ill keep doing it till I hit a few thousand!

So you want backlinks and to be indexed in less than 24 hours

							
 January 4th, 2010  dansomers 

			
							

								
Some of you may remember my article regarding getting indexed within 24hours using a hand full of websites while getting a few back links at the same time. I still find what I wrote quite usefull but I have found something that completely blows my previous article out of the water.


I was checking out digitalpoint freebies section and came across a post boasting about a new SEO script that will get you indexed within 24hours while getting your new domain backlinks from websites with pagerank 6 and upwards. The post also claimed that it can get back links in the thousands all with  good pagerank. I read the post a couple of times thinking it was a load of crap like most of the rubbish that gets placed on the freebie section of digital point, after all it was claiming something it could give you something for nothing…………. Indexed, backlinks that are from high pageranked websites which of course can improve your own page-rank when Google decides to update itself… Sounds to good to be true does it not?


I thought ill give this magic script ago by using a domin that I wasnt to bothered if it got dropped or not so why not?


I checked out the website and gave it a go, you simply type in your domain and make sure you have “new browser” selected and set how many pop up(new windows) you want to open at the same time. I had opted for 50 windows to open to see what it does, this gets annoying as you really do get 50 windows open up with all these websites that you have just pinged but never mind that was my choice and wont do that again. You can select less windows to open or do it manually by just clicking the links but that will take hours to do as you can get 100s of websites queing to ping your website and some of them leave a record on their website so you can get a backlink also while using the tool…………….. quite handy hey?


I must admit it took me a while to work out how the tool would force a website to make a backlink on the “pinged” website but it works the same as princiable of my last article so overall it gets a 8/10 from me. The main downside to this tool is that the websites it pings are mainly Chinese but they do have alot of websites with good pagerank and they are not adult websites or warez websites so you are pretty much safe from having bad links to your new website. The developer of the website has stated he wanted to clean up alot of the websites that the scripts uses for pinging and getting backlinks so hopefully there will be more English websites.


Anyway, I tested the script on the domain that wasnt indexed and hasn’t been in use for at least 3 months. The domain was indexed pretty much in the 24th hour which i was quite suprised about but I have yet to check out the backlinks but I will edit this post once I have done a proper check as half the decent backlink counters on the Internet have stopped working.


I would be careful using this tool if you are planning to use a domain as a new business or website as it is quite new and I myself haven’t checked out the side affects of using this script, I will be checking the back-links very closely over the next couple of weeks while also giving the domain a few more blasts.


If you looking for a quick fix to getting your website indexed and have a few backlinks then this tool is most definatly the way to go!
