2008-12-02T03:51:00.000-08:00

Publishers participating in the AdSense program are required to adhere to the following policies. We ask that you read these policies carefully and refer to this document often. If you fail to comply with these policies, we may disable ad serving to your site and/or disable your AdSense account. While in many cases we prefer to work with publishers to achieve policy compliance, we reserve the right to disable any account at any time. If your account is disabled, you will not be eligible for further participation in the AdSense program.

Please note that we may change our policies at any time, and pursuant to our Terms and Conditions, it is your responsibility to keep up to date with and adhere to the policies posted here.

Invalid Clicks and Impressions
Clicks on Google ads must result from genuine user interest. Any method that artificially generates clicks or impressions on your Google ads is strictly prohibited. These prohibited methods include but are not limited to repeated manual clicks or impressions, using robots, automated click and impression generating tools, third-party services that generate clicks or impressions such as paid-to-click, paid-to-surf, autosurf, and click-exchange programs, or any deceptive software. Please note that clicking on your own ads for any reason is prohibited. Failure to comply with this policy may lead to your account being disabled.

Encouraging clicks
In order to ensure a good experience for users and advertisers, publishers may not request that users click the ads on their sites or rely on deceptive implementation methods to obtain clicks. Publishers participating in the AdSense program:

May not encourage users to click the Google ads by using phrases such as "click the ads," "support us," "visit these links," or other similar language
May not direct user attention to the ads via arrows or other graphical gimmicks
May not place misleading images alongside individual ads
May not promote sites displaying ads through unsolicited mass emails or unwanted advertisements on third-party websites
May not compensate users for viewing ads or performing searches, or promise compensation to a third party for such behavior
May not place misleading labels above Google ad units - for instance, ads may be labeled "Sponsored Links" but not "Favorite Sites"
Site Content
While Google offers broad access to a variety of content in the search index, publishers in the AdSense program may only place Google ads on sites that adhere to our content guidelines, and ads must not be displayed on any page with content primarily in an unsupported language. View a list of supported languages.

Copyrighted Material
Website publishers may not display Google ads on web pages with content protected by copyright law unless they have the necessary legal rights to display that content. Please see our DMCA policy for more information.

Webmaster Guidelines
AdSense publishers are required to adhere to the webmaster quality guidelines posted at http://www.google.com/webmasters/guidelines.html.

Site and Ad Behavior
Sites showing Google ads should be easy for users to navigate and should not contain excessive pop-ups. AdSense code may not be altered, nor may standard ad behavior be manipulated in any way that is not explicitly permitted by Google.

Sites showing Google ads may not contain pop-ups or pop-unders that interfere with site navigation, change user preferences, or initiate downloads.
Any AdSense code must be pasted directly into webpages without modification. AdSense participants are not allowed to alter any portion of the code or change the behavior, targeting, or delivery of ads. For instance, clicks on Google ads may not result in a new browser window being launched.
A site or third party cannot display our ads, search box, search results, or referral buttons as a result of the actions of any software application such as a toolbar.
No AdSense code may be integrated into a software application.
Webpages containing AdSense code may not be loaded by any software that can trigger pop-ups, redirect users to unwanted websites, modify browser settings, or otherwise interfere with site navigation. It is your responsibility to ensure that no ad network or affiliate uses such methods to direct traffic to pages that contain your AdSense code.
Referral offerings must be made without any obligation or requirement to end users. Publishers may not solicit email addresses from users in conjunction with AdSense referral units.
Publishers using online advertising to drive traffic to pages showing Google ads must comply with the spirit of Google's Landing Page Quality Guidelines. For instance, if you advertise for sites participating in the AdSense program, the advertising should not be deceptive to users.
Ad Placement
AdSense offers a number of ad formats and advertising products. Publishers are encouraged to experiment with a variety of placements, provided the following policies are respected:

Up to three ad units may be displayed on each page.
A maximum of two Google AdSense for search boxes may be placed on a page.
Up to three link units may also be placed on each page.
Up to three referral units may be displayed on a page, in addition to the ad units, search boxes, and link units specified above.
AdSense for search results pages may show only a single ad link unit in addition to the ads Google serves with the search results. No other ads may be displayed on your search results page.
No Google ad or Google search box may be displayed in a pop-up, pop-under, or in an email.
Elements on a page must not obscure any portion of the ads.
No Google ad may be placed on any non-content-based pages.
No Google ad may be placed on pages published specifically for the purpose of showing ads, whether or not the page content is relevant.
Competitive Ads and Services
In order to prevent user confusion, we do not permit Google ads or search boxes to be published on websites that also contain other ads or services formatted to use the same layout and colors as the Google ads or search boxes on that site. Although you may sell ads directly on your site, it is your responsibility to ensure these ads cannot be confused with Google ads.

Product-Specific Policies
Some AdSense products have additional policies that apply specifically to their use. Please review them in full if you use the products listed below.

AdSense for mobile
AdSense for video
AdSense for feeds
Google Advertising Cookies
Google uses the DoubleClick DART cookie (English only) on publisher websites displaying AdSense for content ads. Subject to any applicable laws, rules and regulations, you will have the sole and exclusive right to use all data derived from your use of the DoubleClick DART cookie for any purpose related to your business, provided that Google may use and disclose this data subject to the terms of Google's advertising privacy policies (English only), and any applicable laws, rules and regulations.

If your current advertising services contract with Google or DoubleClick already has a specific provision defining data ownership, that provision instead of this policy will govern with regard to the data collected under that contract.

AdSense publishers must have and abide by a privacy policy that discloses that third parties may be placing and reading cookies on your users' browser, or using web beacons to collect information as a result of ad serving on your website. Learn more about preparing your privacy policy.

AdSense for Feeds

2008-11-23T06:50:00.001-08:00

In May 2005, Google announced a limited-participation beta version of AdSense for Feeds, a version of AdSense that runs on RSS and Atom feeds that have more than 100 active subscribers. According to the Official Google Blog, "advertisers have their ads placed in the most appropriate feed articles; publishers are paid for their original content; readers see relevant advertising—and in the long run, more quality feeds to choose from."[6]

AdSense for Feeds works by inserting images into a feed. When the image is displayed by a RSS reader or Web browser, Google writes the advertising content into the image that it returns. The advertisement content is chosen based on the content of the feed surrounding the image. When the user clicks the image, he or she is redirected to the advertiser's website in the same way as regular AdSense advertisements.

AdSense for Feeds has remained in its beta state until August 15, 2008, when it became available to all AdSense users.

How To Maximize Your Adsense CTR - AND Earnings Per Click

2008-05-02T03:11:00.000-07:00

You will have 3-4 ads on your page MAX. (NOT ad blocks. ADS). The fewer Adsense ads show on a page, the higher the average earnings per click for you.

If you place more ads on your page, they will show ads that rank lower on Adwords (and are cheaper). You don't want people to click on ads that pay you $0.05. You want them to click on ads that pay you $0.50! Adwords are generally disproportionately expensive on the top positions. After a while, the bids "normalize" and you won't get paid as much for showing that "Adsense" on your site.

Also keep in mind that many options confuse people. Give them few links to click on.

Don't forget to create channels to track your ads. You can set up a new channel by following this path inside your Adsense account:

Adsense set up ==> Channels ==> Add new custom channels

Be descriptive in your channel name so you know what is going on and you don't get confused. For example, if you have a page on golf clubs and you are testing a 250X250 square on the top left of the screen, use a name like: golfclub250X250left

Also make sure that you don't use channels you have used in ads in previous different markets. I have found that this can confuse the system some times and your page can show ads for the OLD market you were in. This happens especially if there is not a lot of ad inventory in the new market you are in.

Many webmasters like the big rectangle. Why? Because it works! It gets very good CTR. However, I'm not sure that most people have actually tracked the profitability of their ads. Different markets can respond differently BUT, here are a few things to consider:

The 250X250 square, has almost the exact same look like the big rectangle. One ad below the other. But it shows three ads instead of four. What does that mean? It means that you give your visitors fewer options to choose from (but not too few) and they may decide to click more easily. Not only that but you now eliminated the 4th ad which would be, on average, the lowest paying of the four.

Can we push this even more? We can. We can create a similar block of ads with only two ads this time. Just create two 234X60 half banner ads and put one under the other. You now have a "mini rectangle" with only two ads. In many markets, two ads is the sweet spot not only as far as CTR but also as far as earnings per click go.

What about having only one ad then? This would definitely give you the highest earnings per click. But one ad usually doesn't give people that much of an option. If it's not compelling enough, they won't click it. I would have at least two ads on my page.

Note: if you use the trick with the two half banners one on top of the other, make sure that you use different channels. I found that, if I use the same channel name, the exact same ad can show twice on my page! Use different channel names. It makes sense from a tracking standpoint anyway.

Make sure you disable the "advertise on this site" link that your Adsense ads show by default. This will make your ads look less like, well, ads - and more like helpful resources. Login to your Adsense account and click "My Account". Scroll down where it says: Onsite Advertiser Sign-Up [edit]. Under that it should say: Subscription: You are not currently subscribed to Onsite Advertiser Sign-Up. If it says you are signed up, click the edit link and uncheck the box on the next page. All "advertise on this site" links on your ads should disappear in a few hours max...

7 Powerful Ways To Make Money From Adsense Using Only Free Tools

2008-04-28T02:19:00.001-07:00

There is really no doubting that there are amazing incomes currently being made on Google Adsense and the really interesting thing is that even relatively small sites and blogs are finding new ways to make money from their Adsense sites every day.

Actually there are a lot of increasingly creative ways to make money and maximize on Adsense earnings that are being discovered and also being put to use every day. And what’s even more fascinating is the fact that most of these tools being used don’t cost anything. They are actually free. Here are 7 of the most effective currently being used.

a) Ways to make money from Adsense by Distributing articles through ezine and article announcement lists

Some of the most effective methods ways to make money from Adsense clicks involve the simple step of just increasing the volume of targeted traffic to a site. One of the ways of doing this is by distributing interesting content to ezine lists and article announcement lists. It is not too difficult to quickly build a list that reaches a million or so email boxes and can thus give a lot of visibility and drive tons of highly targetd traffic to your Adsense site or sites. Probably the most popular place for doing this is at Yahoo groups, but there are a few others that you can find easily by using your favorite search engine.

Success here depends on three main factors. Firstly you should be careful to join article announcement lists and ezine lists that are as relevant as possible to your subject matter and offering. Secondly your headline has to be a killer headline that will grab readers by the scruffs of their necks and force them to open your email message amongst the dozens or even hundreds of others they receive daily. It goes without saying that the content must meet the promise of your sensational headline. Anything less will cause annoyance and leave all those potential visitors to your Adsense site feeling cheated. And believe me, you don’t want to cause this sort of reaction because it is definitely not one of the ways o make money from Adsense or any other program for that matter. Thirdly, you will need the sort of resource box in all your articles that will leave most of your readers with no option but to visit your Adsense site.

Within a very short of consistently applying this technique, my daily Adsense earnings increased seven-fold.

b) Ways to make money from Adsense by Distributing free articles to high traffic article sites Some people find the recent trends that have seen an increase in article sites surprising. I don’t. The net is primarily an information-seeking tool. Anything that will help improve the search and quality of information will greatly benefit the people making that effort.

Some of the older article directories receive very high traffic, mainly from web masters and site owners seeking quality free content for their sites. So apart from the immediate exposure these sites also guarantee plenty of future targeted traffic to your site, when folks find your articles useful enough to re-post at their sites.

The more new articles you release to these sites every week, the more targeted traffic your Adsense sites will receive. This is in fact one of the most effective ways of making money consistently from Adsense clicks. One of the reasons for this is that targeted traffic will tend to spend more time at your site or sites, and the more time they spend, the higher the chances that they will click one one of the Adsense ads posted there.

c) Ways to make money from Adsense by Using Articles And A Viral Marketing Website

Any online marketing technique that involves the use of referral marketing or viral marketing automatically has a huge chance of being a success. The net is ideal for viral marketing and in fact gives any viral marketer huge leverage. Viral marketing or referral marketing is one of the most effective ways to make money online. Just ask Bill Gates.

When Gates was trying to play catch up on the Internet after an earlier mistake of underestimating the future importance of the net, he launched his Hotmail free email service when rivals like Yahoo already had millions of users. He decided to use a simple referral marketing technique. Every Hotmail message that went out had a brief signature at the end requesting the recipient to sign up for their free Hotmail account. Within a few short months, Hotmail had millions of users. And there are many other amazing stories which viral marketing boasts of on the net.

There is one of the very simple ways to make money from Adsense by going viral. Sign up at a leading viral marketing site. You will automatically get your own viral site. You can then use some of your articles to point people to your viral site. The way these sites work is that anybody who signs up at your site will have to visit your Adsense site if you register it at the site. So within a very short time you will be driving thousands of visitors to your Adsense site.

Find more details on this at my blog whose address you'll find in the resource box below.

Admittedly this traffic is less targeted. Still the huge potential and possible numbers you are able to receive using this free tool more than makes up for this.

d) Ways to make money from Adsense With Your Email signature

People greatly underestimate the power and potential effectiveness of a simple email signature as one of the ways to make money online. Actually this is a viral marketing method because emails get forwarded all the time and are even copied to several other people sometimes.

Do not waste another minute. Go to all your email accounts right now and create a signature that points to your Adsense site or sites.

Writing effective email signatures is a skill that you will have to develop, but I have found that using famous quotes is more effective than a straight advertising message. Always remember that people hate to be advertised to online.

e) Ways to make money from Adsense By Asking Questions At Discussion groups

I recently had an interesting conversation with a young Internet and computer techie. He asked me whether there were quick ways to make money online by answering technical questions and helping people to solve their computer and web-related problems. My answer was that there were many discussion groups where participants would get these answers for free. I advised him that he had a better chance of making money by making use of this free advice available online rather than by trying to sell his own advice.

There are tons of online discussion groups where leading world experts will answer your questions and give you valuable insight for free. It is amazing why most people do not think of using these online forums to learn as much as they can about the most effective ways of making money from Adsense.

These forums can easily be found through you favorite search engine.

f) Ways to make money from Adsense By Bartering your online skills for valuable Adsense keywords

In the old days, before the invention of money, if somebody needed something, the first question they asked themselves was; “What is it that I already have that I can exchange for what I need? Barter trade seems to have been forgotten but it is a very powerful method of trading. More so online where people have plenty of skills but are slow to trust others enough to send them money for an item they need.

You can barter whatever it is you have, your skills, products or services, and exchange them for genuine valuable Adsense keywords. Valuable Adsense keywords are the most effective way for a small site with low traffic to earn big cash from Adsense. And you can do this barter trade on an ongoing basis so that you always have a constant supply of valuable Adsense keywords which you can use at your site or blog as one of the ways to make more money from Adsense.

g) Ways to make money from Adsense By Sending Teaser Emails

To Everybody In Your Inbox And Also To Your Opt-in Email List Most of us receive tons of email in our inbox every day. You’ll be surprised at the huge number of people you know by simply going through your email inbox. No matter how good your spam filters are, you are also bound to be receiving more than your fare share of SPAM or unsolicited email. All this is “gold” lying in your email inbox and there are ways to make money using these emails. All you need to do to process the emails into pure gold is to send out “teaser emails about the most interesting aspects of content at your site. The whole objective of teaser emails is to get people to visit your site. For instance if I were to send out teaser email on this content here is how I would construct it;

Can You Make More Money Through Google Adsense?

2008-03-29T02:30:00.000-07:00

Tired of seeing clicks that are paying your $0.11? There is something you can do about it.

Many adsense publishers bemoan that they are always only getting about $0.11 a click. One glance at their content typically suggests why: its the content. Advertisers are not going to pay large sums of money for keywords where the product is fairly shoddy. So topics such as a new baby or vegetables for example, are more likely to receive a $0.11 click than mortgage loans due to the price of the products affiliated with the keywords. Not surprisingly, mortgage loans policies can run from $50 000 to several million dollars. Baby bibs or veggies on the other hand?

If your content or keywords include terms like "free", "cheap" or "inexpensive" products, you wont find many advertisers lining up with larger paying ads. So what can you do?

While I will touch on how the layout of your site can impact your adsense revenue, lets look at your content - namely what we will call your money pages. So what precisely are your money pages?

Simply put, these are the pages where your best hopes for higher paying ads rest. So what if all of your pages are getting $0.10 a click. Think about related topics that your visitors may be interested in, that suggests advertisers will pay more money to advertise on your site.

If your web site is on cooking, what products do you use to cook with? Is there some type of gizmo you use to help prepare your food? Cutlery, cookware and bakeware all payout larger amounts than items located in a recipe for apple pie.

What if your web site is about newborn babies? Every mom and dad wants to make sure that they are providing the proper care for their new additions. How they made sure their financial plan has been adjusted to provide insurance coverage for the family? What about college savings? Retirement funds? What about clothes?

If your web site is on wedding favors, consider a couple of articles covering higher end wedding favors. While most wedding favor sites cover the topic of shoddy wedding favors, what about the demographic who isnt worried about the amount of their wedding? Is there not a certain type of wedding favor for the higher end of income earners that you could speak to? While the number of clicks may be lower, their payout will more than make up for it.

Think about the advertisers when considering your money pages. Is there a product that they sell for a higher dollar value that your visitors may be interested in?

If you are getting only $0.11 a click, more often than not, its your content.

How Much Money Will I earn Through Adsense?

2008-03-19T23:21:00.001-07:00

The only way to keep up with the latest about Adsense is to constantly stay on the lookout for new information. If you read everything you find about Adsense, it won't take long for you to become an influential authority.

Hopefully the information presented so far has been applicable. You might also want to consider the following:

If you're looking at Google's AdSense program you're surely asking yourself how much you could make from such a program, and you probably think you can't make as much as you can from traditional advertising schemes.

Google, of course, keeps a great deal of secrecy regarding how much AdWords advertisers pay per each click directed to their site and the same applies for how much AdSense banner holders make from their websites.

While there's nothing official, rumors circulate around the Internet concerning the amount of cash a website can earn by using AdSense. And many people (illegally) disclose how much they have been making with AdSense. There are stories of people raising over one thousand dollars per month using AdSense.

There are also stories of people exceeding $100,000.00 per month but it's a bit hard to believe such stories. The truth to the matter is that if you have a small website and you just want it to support itself, and don't wish to reach your pocket for its maintenance costs you can probably do this with AdSense.

AdSense is also very good for people who host a lot of pages. Even if the said pages don't generate a lot of traffic individually, every click counts and you can earn up with a lot of money by doing this. And that just goes to prove that sometimes quantity matters nearly as much as quality.

There's no telling how much money you're going to make by using Google's AdSense but you can sort of tell for yourself, before actually starting, by taking a few things into consideration.

First, is the amount of visits you get every day. While there's no way to estimate precisely on this, you can generally make a safe assumption that if you have a lot of clicks per day you'll be making good money.

Also, this depends on what exactly your site is about. If your site is about anything popular (music, sex, whatever) you're bound to get a lot of banner clicks. These have a coefficient associated with them, called the CTR (click through ratio).

Basically, what it translates to is that if a large proportion of your site's visitors click the ads you'll be making more money. And the best way to do this is to have some popular content in your site, ensuring the links direct users towards popular items as well.

Then of course, there's the position and number of ads on your website. While you don't want to overdo it, having many links will undoubtedly generate more income for you as a webmaster. Do not however believe, that if you just add a lot of ads in an important portion of your site, visitors could always just skip them (and be assured that many do just that).

There's something between an art and a science to positioning your ads. People generally look in certain places and never look in others, and knowing this a website author and/or webmaster can do a great deal of things to increase his earnings with AdSense.

All in all, the amount of money you make with AdSense depends on many factors. But if you have a site with interesting contents and/or many pages, and if you see a constantly large amount of traffic every day, you can bet you'll be making a lot of money with AdSense.

Even if you aren't in the above categories, AdSense is still worth using because there's very little hassle in setting it up, and many times it can help financially support the site, whilst being a nice bonus to get through the post at the end of the month.

Of course, it's impossible to put everything about Adsense into just one article. But you can't deny that you've just added to your understanding about Adsense, and that's time well spent.

Google Adsense Tips and Tricks

2008-03-13T21:12:00.000-07:00

Every single website and its owner have the opportunity to make some great money by displaying Google Adsense ads on it. Although many webmasters are making a nice income with these ads, many aren't.

Many people say that all you have to do is put up a website and you'll be making over $100 a day with Google Adsense. It does sound simple and it is, but you will need to optimize your site so that you do generate more and more clicks on the ads that are sitting on your site.

The first thing that you need to do is to Place the Google Adsense ads in the right spot of the page. This will determine how much money you will make each day. It is very important that you place the ad at the top of the page (above the fold) on your website in order to get the most clicks. What this really means is that you will want to place the Adsense code that Google gives you high enough on the page so that your visitors do not have to scroll down to see the Google ads.

If you choose to have the ads right at the top above everything else then do that. By placing the Google Adsense ads at the top of your website above the fold, there is a greater chance that people will click on the ad, which will help your site generate a higher click through rate also known as CTR. The reason for this is because the majority of your visitors will not scroll down the page and look at it.

A lot of the time, people look over the top part of the page without worrying about scrolling down. The way you blend the ads with the rest of your page can determine if the ad is visually appealing or not. It is very crucial to make the Google Adsense ads look like your site and not another ad. You can do this by making the font and color of the ad's text similar to the rest of the page. I also recommend that you blend the background of the ad with the background of your page. It should basically have the same color.

Google gives you the option to go into your account and customize your ads in different fonts and colors. This will help you blend the ads to your site. Make sure that you don't use the banner ads on your site because this will decrease your click through rate.

People who visit your website usually try to avoid any banner and picture ads that they see. If you want to increase your click through rate, you will want to add text ads. Google gives you that option so use it.

Here are some other small tips to increase your Adsense income:
1. Google has confirmed that using the 336x280 rectangle ad block size does have the highest click through rate. Using this ad size will increase your click through rate and the income that you generate.

2. Using a blue underline for the links can also improve your click through rate. This allows the ads to actually stand out and look clickable.
If you follow the advice given above, you can improve your CTR and make more money with Google Adsense.

Adsense Optimization Tips - Make More Money With Adsense

2008-02-26T15:30:00.000-08:00

The google adsense program can be a powerful way to make money online. However most people that use adsense on their sites are not using proper optimization to maximize their adsense revenue. If you do not have an adsense account then you will need to get one first. Make sure that your site is complete and looks professional.

If you are just starting out as an internet marketer then you can create a blog at Blogger and make a useful post on it then use your blog to apply. Usually google will accept you if you have a blog especially on one of their own sites like Blogger. Once you are accepted into the program do not fool around and violate their terms and conditions.

You may be tempted to try a lot of things when it comes to making money with adsense but you need to stay focused on a long term strategy for success so stay away from the methods that promise to make you a quick buck with adsense and never violate the terms and conditions of the adsense program otherwise you may get banned from a program that could easily replace your day job income many times over.

The long term strategy for success with adsense is to create one or a handful of authority sites that receive heavy free traffic from the search engines. Creating an authority site is another article altogether but some quick tips would be to add lots of original content regularly and use something like article marketing to spread the word about your site as well as build link popularity.

Now once your site starts getting traffic you need to be able to maximize the click through rates on your ads to maximize your adsense income. Make sure that you are also operating in a niche that has dense advertiser competition. This will help in increasing your pay per click because the average bids will be higher but do not expect to receive a dollar or more per click. Be satisfied with an average pay per click in the double digit cents, anything higher is a bonus.

The colors of your ads are very important. Make sure the link color on the ads matches that of the main links on your site. Also make the url color black or grey, this will make the ad headline stand out more which is good because most adwords advertisers are good at writing catchy titles.

Make sure you remove the borders from the ads also as ads that have borders tend to get ignored because people immediately recognize them as ads. The idea is to make people notice your ads and if they notice them and the ads are relevant then there is good chance that they could get clicked on.

The google adsense program while there is no mention of this on their site, tends to reward those sites that have great content, are genuinely useful and are considered authority sites. Make sure your site really is of the greatest quality you can make it, also be sure to have a privacy, about us, contact us and sitemap pages on your site.

Place adsense ads directly in your main content. For instance if you have an article then put some adsense just after the first paragraph and have the words on the article wrap around the content. You are allowed 3 ad units and 2 link units so if you have a lot of content then be sure to use all of the allowable ads. Remember to only put adsense on content rich pages. Follow some of these strategies to optimize your ads and make the most money possible from adsense.

You get better chances by paying for your advertisements, but at least you get a fighting chance with some of these free methods I'm about to tell you.

Take advantage of online forums and online communities. The great thing about forums and online communities is that you can target a certain group that fits the certain demographic that you are looking for. You can discuss about lots of things about the niche that you represent or offer. Another great advantage is that you know what you are getting into and you will be prepared.

With online communities and forums you can build a reputation for your company. Show them what you are made of and wow them with your range of expertise about the subject, with that you can build a reputation and build trust with the people in your expertise and knowledge.

The more people who signs up for your newsletter, the more people there will be that will go to your site increasing your traffic.

Another great idea is trading links with other sites. You don't have to spend a cent. All you have to do is reach an agreement with another webmaster. With exchanging links, the efforts both sites do will benefit both sites. Every traffic that goes to the site could potentially click on the link of your site and visit your site as well. This works well especially when both sites feature the same niche.

Write articles that could pique the attention of people that have interest in your product. Try writing articles that will provide tips and guides to other aficionados. Writing articles that provide good service and knowledge to other people would provide the necessary mileage your traffic flow needs.

Many sites offer free submission and posting of your articles. When people find interest in your articles they have a good chance of following the track by finding out where the article originated. Include a link or a brief description of your company with the article and there's a great probability that they will go to your site.

Write good content for your site. Many search engines track down the keywords and keyword phrases your site uses and how they are used. It is not a requirement that a content should be done by a professional content writer. You could do your on but you have to make content for your site that is entertaining as well as informational. It should provide certain requirements as well as great quality.

Generally, internet users use search engines to find what they are looking for. Search engines in return use keyword searching in aiding their search results. With the right keywords, you could get high rankings in search engine results without the costs.

All of these methods and more will drive more traffic to your site for free. All it takes is a bit of effort and extended man hours. Learn all you can about the methods depicted here and you will soon have a site with a great traffic flow without the usual costs that come with it.

Adsense - The Powerful Passive Income Generator

2008-02-23T03:52:00.000-08:00

Webmasters have a revolutionary new method of collecting income from their websites. Whereas in the past advertising revenue was reserved for those sites with large a coming and going of visitors, now even teenagers are making a quick buck with their online hobby blogs. People place adsense on their online family photo albums, their blogs and their business sites. The minimum you would get, even with a small amount of traffic, is for adsense to pay for your hosting costs. Adsense revolutionized the world of paid advertising; banner advertising is based on the number of visitors you attract to your site, so the number of "banner impressions" dictates the revenue you receive. Google Adsense is quite different; it is the number of visitors that actually click on the advertising that determine how much you earn. There is also a great disparity between payouts; because advertisers bid up the price for certain keywords, some ads pay more than others. As such, a site with few visitors but expensive keywords in their Google ads can potentially still pull in a hefty payout. Google really has taken the web by storm; attracted to passive income, more and more people are seriously capitalizing on their Google adsense advertising. Some of the highest earners manage to attract enough visitors to make a four figure monthly income, just from using adsense alone! This is not one of those get-rich-quick schemes and Google's adsense success is largely thanks to the fact that Google already enjoyed a fantastic reputation before introducing the program. They are a publicly traded company with physical headquarters. This, and the fact that anyone can apply to use adsense for free, has caused millions of people to sign up. For Google it was a smart move, because now they extend their presence to countless websites and generate millions of dollars in advertising revenue. People were never reluctant to sign up, because the program is free. Google benefits by more people using adsense, so offering it for free was the best thing they could do. One of the driving forces behind the program are its relevance to each and every page on a website; the program picks up keywords appearing in the website copy and automatically displays relevant ads. This increases the chances of people clicking through, and the webmaster collecting more revenue. People are leveraging their income by operating several websites and attempting to attract as many targeted visitors as possible; in many instances we can observe that people work hard at a site, then once it is established they can largely leave it alone, yet still collect significant checks. A major concern for entrepreneurs was the danger of a competitors ads showing up on their site; thanks to the adsense feature where it only displays relevant advertising. However this problem was solved by offering webmasters the option of filtering out unwanted ads. They can submit the URL of the competing site in their account, and any ads from the website will be blocked. Google recently came out with a new feature: small targeted keywords based on the site's content are displayed; then as people click on those, a page opens showing a variety of pay-per-click ads based on that keyword. This gives webmasters the chance of displaying more advertising in less space. Adsense also adds creditability to your website; the more focused the content, the better the ads will be and this encourages people to built high quality websites. These make the net a better place and generally provide a free service; site owners can afford to share their expertise or passions because they can receive indirect revenue's. The visitor does not pay for the information; instead the advertisers do, making the website's existence possible in the first place. It is no surprise Google adsense is the most widely used form of advertising; they have created a program that is beneficial to both advertisers and users with their "no click no pay" mechanism, or more popularly called "pay-per-click". Advertisers do not pay for ads that are not drawing visitors, and website owners are paid more for each click than they would if the system were based on the number of people viewing the ads, instead of clicking on them. All in all Google adsense has developed itself into a powerful tool, used by large corporations and the kid next door. They have truly revolutionized how the web thinks about advertising and made the process more profitable for site owners, while less costly for advertisers.

7 Steps Of Mega Adsense Earners

2008-02-20T20:28:00.001-08:00

The Google AdSense program is like finding money in the street.

Kids in High School are making thousands of dollars a month with Adsense... Housewives, Retiree's, Mom and Pop's who've never made a dime on the Internet have created full time incomes by simply placing AdSense Ads on their web site or blog.

Then you have the "Super AdSense" earners. We have all heard of them... the Elite few who are on track to make half a million dollars a year or more promoting AdSense sites.

Do not be mistaken though... these people are not building like your Mom and Pop's do. They have systems in place that create sites for them... people who build sites for them... they have outsourced and automated many of the tedious tasks such as posting to blogs and searching for keywords.

While most people cannot emulate everything these Super AdSense earners do... many of them you can.

Here are 7 Required Steps you can implement today to copy their success.

1) Starting today... treat your AdSense business like it is a REAL business and track what you do.

Begin tracking what you are doing that works... as well as what you are doing that does not work. This will keep you from making the same mistakes over and over, and you can repeat the steps that have worked in the past. As simple as this step seems... most people do not know the reason(s) to their success or failure.

2) Utilize the latest tools and software available.

The Super AdSense earners are not any smarter than your average person. I know many people think they are... but for the most part, they are regular non techie people.

They are smarter in one respect though... they use the latest tools available to them to automate most of the tasks involved with researching and creating sites. They use the latest keyword, site creation and search engine optimization tools available. The tools they use are their secret weapons.

3) Quit chasing the Mega Dollar keywords.

You cannot compete with the search engine experts who create sites for the $80 payout keywords. You may get lucky every now and then... but in the long run, you are better off building sites for the low to mid range payout keywords. The competition is less, and your chance of success is much higher over the long term.

4) Choose broad niches and break it down.

Choose a broad subject as your main theme (lets use computers for an example). From there... break it down into as many sub niches as possible.

Using Computers as the example... you could build sub niches/sites like laptop computers, computer hard drives, computer keyboards, etc, etc. You could literally build hundreds of sites around one major theme and stay totally focused. Once you have exhausted every possible sub niche of that major theme... choose another main theme and repeat the process.

5) KISS

Keep your sites easy to navigate and forget the fancy graphics that distract your visitors attention. Unless you are just building AdSense sites for the fun of it and to impress your friends... the purpose of having the site is to have people click on one of the ads, right? Then keep the site layout simple... dump the scrolling banners, dancing chickens and colored scroll bars... they are distractions.

6) What is the purpose of your web site?

Your web site cannot be everything to everybody. If you have a full fledged ecommerce site, with products for sale... links to other products, it is not a good site for AdSense. If the primary focus of the site is to sell products... let it do that.

Do not distract or confuse your visitor with to many options or choices. The best AdSense sites are AdSense only content sites that sell nothing. They are sites that "Tell"... not "Sell."

7) Be consistent.

This is not one of those deals where you build one site and you are done. Refer back to Step #4. You must continuously build in order to be successful.

Think of it as planting a crop that you will harvest in a month or two, and the sites you build are seeds. Once the seeds have grown and matured... you will reap the harvest. The more seeds you plant... the larger the harvest.

To sum it up... utilize the tools available to automate as much of the process of building sites - doing research and building keyword lists as you can. This alone will help keep you organized and on track. Be consistent in building... treat it like the business it is and you will reap the rewards of your harvest.

Google Adsense will definitely be around for awhile as it continues to flourish. As long as there are people wanting to earn some easy cash online just using their talents, the future ahead is looking good.

Earn Cash With Adsense and Articles

2008-02-19T05:22:00.000-08:00

The question regarding making cash using articles and Adsense has been asked numberous times. The unbelievers will tell you that it's not possible. If that were true, there would not be so many people earning a living writing articles for their Adsense sites.

The question regarding making cash using articles and Adsense has been asked numberous times. The unbelievers will tell you that it's not possible. If that were true, there would not be so many people earning a living writing articles for their Adsense sites.

In order to earn money with Adsense, you need to search for a profitable niche. When you are just beginning, you should pick a niche that you have some interest in. By doing this you will be more interested and it will not be quite as difficult for you to write your articles.

If you are interested in fishing, you could write articles about different kinds of fish, types of bait, type of lures, rods, reels, and the best locations for certain species.

When you become more comfortable writing articles you might then try a niche that is new to you. Use the search engines and do a search for whatever niche you want to try and research that topic. You might find that you have more of an interest in that topic than you thought.

When writing your articles, be precise, be informative, and by all means, don't tell people the same thing that everyone else is telling them. Make your articles new and captivating. Give people unique content. Don't write several articles and think that will be enough. You need to keep writing articles. You must keep your site full of fresh content. Don't forget to put your name and website address at the end of your article in the resource box. As you write informative articles, other websites may grab your article and publish it on their site or in their newsletter, thereby driving additional traffic to your site.

By keeping your content fresh and informative, the search engines will spider your site more often. Search engines look for new and unique content and will make numerous trips to your site if you keep adding new articles to it. The more often they visit, the higher in the ratings your website will go.

You also need to submit your articles to online article directories. Each directory has its own submission guidelines so be sure to check them out first. Make sure your resource box is included with the article when you submit it. Without this resource box, readers will not know who wrote the article or how to get more information from your website. More visitors will also help increase your search engine ratings.

When you join Google's Adsense program, Google will place Adsense ads on your site that are directly related to the topic that you are writing about. When a visitor clicks on one of the ads, you are paid for that click. The amount you are paid will depend on what the advertiser is paying for that ad and only Google knows that. The more traffic you get to your site, and the higher your click through rate (CTR), the more money you can earn.

It's not as hard as it may appear. The most difficult part is getting started and keeping the momentum going. It may take awhile for your site to get traffic. The most important thing is to keep submitted articles to your website.

If you wish, you can also post articles written by others as long as you include their resource box. Doing so can cause some visitors to transfer away from your site by clicking on the link in the authors resource box. But the good part of this practice is that the article still adds fresh content to your website which is always a good thing for your search rankings.

Why Choose SEO Services ?

2008-02-15T20:03:00.000-08:00

Implementing SEO services in your marketing strategy is a very wise thing to do for the following five reasons :
* The Absence Of Risk – often, paid advertising is subject to click-fraud risks and competitor’s unfair techniques ( examples of these techniques would be the usage of software that will click your ads for hundreds of times without any noticeable profit to your site; however, you will pay for each and every single click to ). Pay-for-performance programs like Google AdWords have advanced protection against this harmful behavior but the risk will never be eliminated. However, SEO is free of any potential risk unless you make obvious mistakes like spamming.
* Reliability – paid search engine placement or banner ads work right until the moment when the marketing budget depletes. After that moment the site disappears from the listings and the returning customers will not find you again ( nor will the new visitors ). SEO services will help buffer this process so you can gradually minimize the advertising budget as you will be increasing your results that are obtained from the organic search engine listings. Another advantage of this would be the fact that consumers prefer purchasing from a site that is ranked high in the search engine results rather than purchasing from an evidently placed advertisement.
* Brand Awareness – a website that has a high rank among search engine listings means that more people will see the company’s name and become more and more familiar with the products as well as the company although they still haven’t made one single purchase. A recent survey clearly shows that consumers are twice as likely to recognize businesses that are ranked high ( top three ) in the search engine listings in comparison to those that are appearing in the regular banner ads.
* Targeted Traffic – the SEO services will bring paying customers right to your door step. These customers that we are talking about have entered your websites keywords or phrases into the search engines and the results showed your business. The SEO services will help you transform regular visitors into real buyers by analyzing their behavior once they locate your site. By utilizing the content of your website you will learn how to transform these visitors into buyers in the most effective and efficient manner possible.
* Affordability – comparing banner ads with SEO services in terms of costs, the money that you will pay for these services won’t reach staggering sums like $15,000 that people pay for banner ads.
Now we are going to offer you a small list of techniques that should be avoided at all costs:
* Keyword stuffing
* Automatically generated doorway pages
* Misspelling of well-known websites
* Hidden text or hidden links
* Cloaking and false redirects
* Duplicated content on multiple pages
* Other methods that try to trick search engines
All in all, SEO is highly recommended if you want to make your business popular because popularity over the Internet is crucial as you will attract more visitors and if you play your cards the right way, these visitors will be transformed into first time buyers and with a bit of luck, customers.
Summary: SEO is becoming more and more important for success over the internet that is why all business owners must take this method into consideration.

3 Techniques To Increase Online Traffic To Your Website Fast

2008-02-15T06:07:00.001-08:00

You need to constantly increase online traffic to your website for you to grow and expand your business online.

Website traffic is not that difficult to generate as most internet marketers would want you to believe. They only want you to buy their useless information on how to generate traffic when you can figure it out on your own.

When I first came online I had no clue about what worked and what did not work online, but I was eager to learn and I promised myself never to give up the fight on increasing online traffic to my websites.

I spent a lot of time and money trying to figure out how to get more website traffic, then I realized that each business is different and a person needs to tailor each traffic generation technique they learn to their own business.

This is what no marketer ever told me. Most of them literally said hey, buy my product because it works. Honestly lots of them were telling the truth. What they forgot to tell me was that it worked for them and that does not mean it will work for me.

I started implementing lots of their ideas to my business and I got some success but only when I made some minor changes to tailor their strategies to my business, did I then see a massive increase it online traffic and sales.

Let me explain three techniques I used to work my way up the search engines and increased online traffic to my websites fast. First of all I am using one of those techniques right now and that is article marketing.This technique alone has helped me to increase online traffic to my website without ever having to spend any money on advertising.

Article marketing is a great way to increase your search engine rankings, back links, Google page rank, website traffic and your credibility with your visitors.

With each article you write and promote with, you will be generating more and more traffic every time. You may have an article that does not bring in many visitors but on the other hand you may write an article that may generate a couple thousand visitors to your website.

Articles are so easy to use as a tool to increase online traffic because obviously if you start an online business about for example, traveling , then you should be able to write plenty of articles about traveling.

You can write about the places you visited and the hot spots and activities those places have to offer. If you do some simple keyword research you can have your articles rank highly in the search engines as well.

In your resource box you should always have your anchor text target the keyword you want to rank for in the search engines.Your articles should have also been written surrounding that keyword as well.

Article marketing is not hard, so do not make it hard. Just write what you love or what interest you the most. If your business is something that you love then article marketing will be a perfect fit to help you increase online traffic. The best part is, all that traffic is free.

The second technique I want to look at is viral marketing.This is one of the most under used forms of marketing to increase online traffic.

I do not think the power of this method is really understood online.Imaging you create an ebook and you give your readers permission to giveaway this information to others, do have any idea how many people will come in contact with your information?

The best part is, you do not ever have to lift a figure to generate the traffic. Viral marketing is a set and forget system that will increase online traffic to your website fast.

The third technique is niche marketing.You may be saying this is not a traffic generating technique but my friend, you are totally wrong.

I spend lots of time researching keywords that are related to my niche market and I use articles and viral marketing to dominate them easily.All I do is set up a web page, normally a squeeze page, that can collect my visitors contact information in exchange for information they need.

Do you have any idea how many subscribers I can collect with niche marketing. I can then increase online traffic to my other websites or products by sending them an email telling them about my offers.

Since I have their email addresses I can market to them for life, or at least until they change their email address.

See how I combined each of the techniques to build traffic to my websites? I hope you see how easy it is to increase online traffic, just think outside the box and tailor each technique you learn to your own unique business.

ADSENSE, HOW DOES IT WORKS?

2008-02-10T00:45:00.001-08:00

ADSENSE, HOW DOES IT WORKS?

Prior to the understanding of the significance of Google Adsense to content sites, it’s very important to know how Adsense works does and how it can give you a fortune in life. Well the concept is simple as 123, the publisher (it means the webmaster) needs to put up a code from google and paste it up into their websites or specific webpage. Once the page was loaded, this simple code from google (adsense code) will automatically check a related advertisement from other Advertiser. The keywords that are targeted must therefore be associated to the content which is contained on the webpage. Once a visitor gives its part and click on the advertisement, a corresponding amount will be added to the publisher’s account the amount will be depending on your targeted keywords. If you want to have a high amount keywords you must use any keyword tool to check what keyword are on the top rank. Once a visitor click on the corresponding ads, google monitored and handles all the tracking and check if it is a legal or fraud click.While most ads that promote this type of affiliate program boast of fast and easy money, if you truly want to make money with this program there is going to be substantial work involved. In order for you to make money, you will need to attract visitors to your website. To do this you will need to provide your viewers with quality content that appeals to a large audience. One popular way to do this is to provide a blog of current events, issues, opinion, commentary, etc. Another way is to produce original content that people will drool over. Be creative. There is a lot of competition out there, so learn how to produce content that will top the search engine results, and learn how to use keywords to your advantage in order to attract more viewers.

Though a good number of ads that promotes this kind of program boast of instant and easy money, if you really wants to earn money with this kind of program you must have to sustain time effort, and give a focus on it, and it has a huge time involved. For you have make a fortune, you need to catch the eye of your visitors to your site. In way to this, you will need to sustain the needs of your viewer or your visitors by providing a high quality content of your website that can attract a huge number of viewers. One of the way to do this is to create or provide a BLOG of any events, or something that can attract others, for instance you will create a controversial statement of any celebrity that you know that the other will be attract with, or you can post your opinions or commentary or something related to that. One more way is to create or produce an original and fresh content that people will surely come over. You must to be more creative, because there is a huge competition all over the net, so you must learn how to generate a content that will top the search engine results, and ofcourse you must learn how to use KEYWORDS to your advantage in order for you to attract more visitors.

AdSense Hints & Advice Revised

2008-02-03T01:10:00.000-08:00

Most people have tried and failed to make money at AdSense, however they found it is not quite as easy as people made out. A lot of people fail to get anywhere near the Click Thru Rate they need or the keywords they have chosen are generating poor earnings. Here are a few tips on hopefully helping you improve and hopefully make some decent money.

Hint #1 Try and make use of all the ads available, obviously you don't want to make your website look like one long advert but if you have enough content you can place your adverts around the page and it will look ok.

Hint #2: Make your Ads look like the page.
Everyone surfing the web is expecting adverts on pages, in fact they will be shocked if there aren't any. Google AdSense lets you change the colours of your adverts the common consensus amongst the experts is to make the ads blend with your website as much as possible. But others think it is better to make them stand out. So try different combinations and see which works best for your site.

Hint #3: Make sure your page has the correct ads.
A lot of sites are not targeted enough so AdSense puts a wide range of different adverts on the page. Do some research into keywords and try and make each page concentrate on a keyword or phrase. If your page is content rich and has ample keywords the adverts will mirror the page content and you are more likely to get clicks from your visitors. At the end of the day they have come across your site looking for those keywords the odds are good they will leave looking for the same keywords.

Hint #4 Make your site presentable
It is pointless having a content rich site with great keywords if it looks like a child made it. If you are no good at web design try a freelancer they do jobs very cheap now. Try not to have popups we all hate them so why try and subject your potential customers to them.

Make AdSense work for you.

How I doubled my adsense earnings

2008-02-03T01:03:00.000-08:00

When I joined the Adsense Program in 2004, I made $0.43 for the first month, $0,91 for the second month and so forth.

Only in September 2006 I joined the $100 group. To be more precise, my first payment was approximately $170. It was then that I realized the potential of Google Adsense. I mean, to wait almost two years to see an income with Google Adsense is a very long time. But it was well worth it. I read posts of other people complaining that they are not making with the Adsense Program, but their website is online for two or three weeks. Yep, the money-makers.

Well, after that first $170 I was really into it, if you know what I mean. I thought to myself, how can I increase my revenue with the Google Adsense Program even more? What is the secret of other people? So started my whole venture. And what did I found out? THE BIG CONTENT IS KING. So I decided that I am going to put more content on my web site. You know, at the time I did not realize that I can write articles myself.

To tell you the truth, at that time I did not know about SEO (did not even know what it meant). I hear that it means SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION. (Now does that not sound very technical? But lets leave SEO for yet another article, shall we?

Anyways, what I noticed was that I was getting more than the $170 each month. The $170 went up to $300, then $350 and so on. Now I average at around $25 a day! And let me tell you, it is not going to stop.

You can even exchange links with other sites to improve you pagerank and google adsense earnings. The more backlinks you have, the more visitors you will get, believe me.

You can send an email to other webmasters asking them to exchange links with your site. The best advise I can give you is to put a backlink to the other site first on your site, then mention in your email to the other webmaster what you did and give him/her the url to your link page. Most will do the same to you.

Something very important is to visit a web site and tell the webmaster what his/her site is about, what your site is about and how it will benefit both of you to exchange links.

One more thing. You are free to use this article on your website provided that it stays unaltered and the links in the resourcebox is live, search-engine friendly links.

DO NOT STEAL. IT IS NOT WORTH IT.

The Basic “Dos and Don’ts”

2008-02-02T07:01:00.000-08:00

The Basic “Dos and Don’ts”Of Search Engine Optimization

Search Engine Ranking is Platformed Upon Relevancy.The heart of an Internet marketing strategy is optimizing a website to rank high in the free search results. Each individual search engine sets its own unique methods of ranking search results, but the root of all criteria (algorithms) is based upon how well a web page satisfies relevancy to a particular search query.

The search engines reward sites that make it easy to determine the level of relevance to a query. They prefer simplistic html development that places keywords where they are most impressive to the criteria. They do not like deceptive optimization techniques that intend to deceive users or their guidelines and will penalize sites for spamming those guidelines.

Ranking algorithms are complex and are kept confidential. They are changed frequently in-pursuit of enhanced search results and to make it difficult for search engine optimizers to reverse-engineer the criteria. But you can always be assured that establishing relevancy without spamming the engines is the key to long-term search engine prominence.

The Basic “Dos”• Keep code simple and lean.Search engine spiders only “read” html and read from top of the source code down. The sooner they can determine what a web page is about, the better. Engines do not read graphical elements, therefore graphics should be used sparingly to grab and reinforce attention and interest. Do not “over-bloat” code and place all JavaScript in external files. Keep code as simple (friendly) as possible.

• Place keywords where they’re impressive to ranking criteria.All copywriting should maintain a “natural flow” without an overzealous attempt to stuff keywords which is disruptive to a reader. Keywords in content should always be viewable by the user and “lightly sprinkled” throughout html content reinforced by reasonable usage of exact phrases to the search term. Ideal locations for keywords include the following:

Page Title Tags
Meta Descriptions
Meta Keyword Tags
Content Headlines Subheads
First Paragraphs
Last Sentences
Alt-Tags (Particularly Linked Graphics)
URL Root Domain
URL Page Extensions

• Create a site map.Search engines discover web pages by following links. Make it easy for them to discover and index your web pages by creating a Site Map that lists and links to all internal pages. Apply very brief descriptions of what the user will discover at destination. Link to the site map from all web pages.

• Continually add relevant informative content.Search engines like larger websites with themed on-topic content. Every new web page you add creates a potential “landing point” for a wider-range of targeted keyword phrases. Rich informative content will attract unsolicited “natural” one-way links into your site that continually enlarges traffic potential. Set a goal to add new fresh content to your site frequently and you’ll be rewarded with enhanced ranking potential and new streams of qualified leads.

• Accumulate quality inbound links.You need at least one link to your site to become indexed by a search engine. You need lots of links to become highly ranked for competitive search terms. Links from websites that are relevant to your receiving pages are more valuable than completely off-topic links. One-way (non-reciprocal) links to your pages are stronger than two-way reciprocals. Create a linking strategy and execute the campaign with assigned committed responsibility. Sustaining prominent ranking positions requires a continuous ongoing effort. Not only do quality incoming links increase ranking potential but those links will also refer quality leads.

• Submit your site to online directories.Online directories are a great source of one-way links from directory pages that are relevant to your content. They contribute link popularity and provide lead referrals as well. Many directories offer free index inclusion such as the Open Directory Project (dmoz.org). Some charge relatively low inclusion fees such as Joe Ant and Web Savvy, while others can be quite expensive including the Yahoo Directory. Determine your own derived benefit versus your marketing budget, but take full advantage of the free opportunities.

• Maintain theme continuity throughout your siteThe stronger an on-topic theme is sustained
site-wide, the greater the ranking potential. Search engines measure theme continuity as an indicator of strong relevance. If you have “incompatible” content, it’s best to create separate websites for each non-relevant topic.
The Basic Don’ts
• Do not use hidden keywords.It’s amazing why so many SEOs will hide keywords when it’s so easy to make them viewable to a user. Always make content viewable and do not attempt to hide keywords using same color words on same color backgrounds or any other method of hiding content which is considered search engine spam.

• Do not heavily cross-link between sites.The core purpose of the web is linking users to information of interest. Links to third-party web pages should be done naturally where it makes logic to a user. However, do not be tempted to cross-link from and to every page between separate websites as an attempt to artificially inflate link popularity. This type of abuse is particularly disdained by the search engines when the interlinking sites are commonly owned and reside on the same server. Every link between two websites should provide a meaningful purpose to a user.

• Do not participate in link farms.A link farm can be described as a group of websites that participate in an interlinking scheme for the sole purpose of inflating link popularity among the participants without providing meaningful value to a user. The engines can detect such schemes and will move swiftly to penalize the participating sites including potential index expulsion. To protect against innocent collateral damage, only link to compatible web pages that provide informative value to your visitors.

• Do not hide links.Links should always be evident to a user. Do not hide links using any method including same color on same color or attached to “periods” or “commas” which are techniques used by unethical SEOs.

Achieving Long-term SuccessThe key to long-term success is satisfying relevancy in every respect using sound approaches focused on user-experience, informative value and attention to search engine guidelines. The goal of all engines is presenting the most relevant results to a search query. Therefore, helping them attain that mission should generally strengthen your website’s ranking potential.

10 Costly Search Engine Mistakes to Avoid

2008-01-29T20:11:00.001-08:00

If you have a website then you already know the importance of traffic. Traffic is to Internet marketing as location is to real estate. It's the only thing that really matters. If you cannot generate targeted visitors to your site, you will not make any sales.
Usually the owner or designer of the website is the person designated to drive traffic to the site. The chief ingredient in generating traffic is the search engine. Of coarse, you can use advertising, but it's going to cost you. Using the search engines to generate targeted (interested in your product) traffic is the least expensive method known.

Unfortunately, many website owners do not understand the importance of search engine visibility, which leads to traffic. They place more importance on producing a "pretty" website. Not that this is bad, but it is really secondary to search engine placement. Hopefully, the following list of common mistakes, made by many website owners, will help you generate more targeted traffic to your site...after all, isn't that what you want.

1. Not using keywords effectively.

This is probably one of the most critical area of site design. Choose the right keywords and potential customers will find your site. Use the wrong ones and your site will see little, if any, traffic.

2. Repeating the same keywords.

When you use the same keywords over and over again (called keyword stacking) the search engines may downgrade (or skip) the page or site.

3. Robbing pages from other websites.

How many times have you heard or read that "this is the Internet and it's ok" to steal icons and text from websites to use on your site. Don't do it. Its one thing to learn from others who have been there and another to outright copy their work. The search engines are very smart and usually detect page duplication. They may even prevent you from ever being listed by them.

4. Using keywords that are not related to your website.

Many unethical website owners try to gain search engine visibility by using keywords that have nothing at all to do with their website. They place unrelated keywords in a page (such as "sex", the name of a known celebrity, the hot search topic of the day, etc.) inside a meta tag for a page. The keyword doesn't have anything to do with the page topic. However, since the keyword is popular, they think this will boost their visibility. This technique is considered spam by the search engines and may cause the page (or sometimes the whole site) to be removed from the search engine listing.

5. Keyword stuffing.

Somewhat like keyword stacking listed above, this means to assign multiple keywords to the description of a graphic or layer that appears on your website by using the "alt=" HTML parameter. If the search engines find that this text does not really describe the graphic or layer it will be considered spam.

6. Relying on hidden text.

You might be inclined to think that if you cannot see it, it doesn't hurt. Wrong.... Do not try to hide your keywords or keyword phrases by making them invisible. For example, some unethical designers my set the keywords to the same color as the background of the web page; thereby, making it invisible.

7. Relying on tiny text.

This is another version of the item above (relying on hidden text). Do not try to hide your keywords or keyword phrases by making them tiny. Setting the text size of the keywords so small that it can barely be seen does this.

8. Assuming all search engines are the same.

Many people assume that each search engine plays by the same rules. This is not so. Each has their own rule base and is subject to change anytime they so desire. Make it a point to learn what each major search engine requires for high visibility.

9. Using free web hosting.

Do not use free web hosting if you are really serious about increasing site traffic via search engine visibility. Many times the search engines will eliminate content from these free hosts.

10. Forgetting to check for missing web page elements.

Make sure to check every page in your website for completeness, like missing links, graphics, etc. There are sites on the web that will do this for free.

This is just a few of the methods and techniques that you should avoid. Do not give in to the temptation that these methods will work for you. They will do more harm than good for your website.

Not only will you spend weeks of wasted effort, you may have your site banned from the search engines forever. Invest a little time to learn the proper techniques for increasing search engine visibility and your net traffic will increase.
