<p><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black">Following are the 9 Biggest SEO Mistakes</span></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"> which Web Designers &amp; Web Developers should avoid.</span><span style="font-family: Arial"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red">Splash Page</span></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><br />
I&#8217;ve seen this mistake many times where people put up just a big banner image and a link &#8220;Click here to enter&#8221; on their homepage. The worst case &#8212; the &#8220;enter&#8221; link is embedded in the Flash object, which makes it impossible for the spiders to follow the link.</p>
<p>This is fine if you don&#8217;t care about what a search engine knows about your site; otherwise, you&#8217;re making a BIG mistake. Your homepage is probably your website&#8217;s highest ranking page and gets crawled frequently by web spiders. Your internal pages will not appear in the search engine index without the proper linking structure to internal pages for the spider to follow.</p>
<p>Your homepage should include (at minimum) target keywords and links to important pages.</p>
<p></span><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red">Non-spiderable Flash Menus</span></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><br />
Many designers make this mistake by using Flash menus such as those fade-in and animated menus. They might look cool to you but they can&#8217;t be seen by the search engines; and thus the links in the Flash menu will not be followed.</p>
<p></span><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red">Image and Flash Content</span></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><br />
Web spiders are like a text-based browser, they can&#8217;t read the text embedded in the graphic image or Flash. Most designers make this mistake by embedding the important content (such as target keywords) in Flash and image.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red">Overuse of <st1:city w:st="on">Ajax</st1:city></span></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><br />
A lot of developers are trying to impress their visitor by implementing massive <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">Ajax</st1:city></st1:place> features (particularly for navigation purposes), but did you know that it is a big SEO mistake? Because, <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">ajax</st1:place></st1:city> content is loaded dynamically, so it is not spiderable or indexable by search engines.</p>
<p>Another disadvantage of <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Ajax</st1:place></st1:city> &#8212; since the address URL doesn&#8217;t reload, your visitor can not send the current page to their friends.</p>
<p></span><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red">Versioning of Theme Design</span></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><br />
For some reason, some designers love to version their theme design into sub level folders (i.e. domain.com/v2, v3, v4) and redirect to the new folder. Constantly changing the main root location may cause you to lose backlink counts and ranking.</p>
<p></span><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red">&#8220;Click Here&#8221; Link Anchor Text</span></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><br />
You probably see this a lot where people use &#8220;Click here&#8221; or &#8220;Learn more&#8221; as the linking text. This is great if you want to be ranked high for &#8220;Click Here&#8221;. But, if you want to tell the search engine that your page is important for a topic, than use, that topic/keyword in your link anchor text. It&#8217;s much more descriptive (and relevant) to say &#8220;learn more about {keyword topic}&#8221;</p>
<p>Warning: Don&#8217;t use the EXACT same anchor text everywhere on your website. This can sometimes be seen as search engine spam too.</p>
<p></span><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red">Common Title Tag Mistakes</span></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><br />
<strong><em>Same or similar title text:</em></strong><br />
Every page on your site should have a unique &lt;title&gt; tag with the target keywords in it. Many developers make the mistake of having the same or similar title tags throughout the entire site. That&#8217;s like telling the search engine that EVERY page on your site refers to the same topic and one isn&#8217;t any more unique than the other.</p>
<p>One good example of bad Title Tag use would be the default WordPress theme. In case you didn&#8217;t know, the title tag of the default WordPress theme isn&#8217;t that useful: Site Name &gt; Blog Archive &gt; Post Title. Why isn&#8217;t this search engine friendly? Because, every single blog post will have the same text &#8220;Site Name &gt; Blog Archive &gt;&#8221; at the beginning of the Title Tag. If you really want to include the site name in the title tag, it should be at the end: Post Title | Site Name.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><em><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red">Exceeding the 65 character limit:</span></em></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><br />
Many bloggers write very long post titles. So what? In search engine result pages, your title tag is used as the link heading. You have about 65 characters (including spaces) to get your message across or risk it getting cutoff.</p>
<p><strong><em>Keyword stuffing the title:<o:p></o:p></em></strong></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><br />
Another common mistake people tend to make is overfilling the title tag with keywords. Saying the same thing 3 times doesn&#8217;t make you more relevant. Keyword stuffing in the Title Tag is looked at as search engine spam (not good). But it might be smart to repeat the same word in different ways:</p>
<p>&#8220;Photo Tips &amp; Photography Techniques for Great Pictures&#8221; &#8220;Photo&#8221; and &#8220;Photography&#8221; are the same word repeated twice but in different ways because your audience might use either one when performing a search query.</p>
<p></span><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red">Empty Image Alt Attribute</span></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><br />
You should always describe your image in the alt attribute. The alt attribute is what describes your image to a blind web user. Guess what? Search engines can&#8217;t see images so your alt attribute is a factor in illustrating what your page is relevant for.</p>
<p>Hint: Properly describing your images can help your ranking in the image search results. For example, Google image search brings me hundreds of referrals everyday for the search terms &#8220;abstract&#8221; and &#8220;dj&#8221;.</p>
<p></span><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red">Unfriendly URLs</span></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: red"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black"><br />
Most blog or CMS platforms have a friendly URL feature built-in, however, not every blogger is taking advantage of this. Friendly URL&#8217;s are good for both your human audience and the search engines. The URL is also an important spot where your keywords should appear.</p>
<p>Example of Friendly URL: domain.com/page-title Example of Dynamic URL: domain.com/?p=12356</p>
<p>These things are the pillars of Search Engine Optimization and so to your web site&#8217;s success path.</span><span style="font-family: Arial"><o:p></o:p></span><br />

<p class="MsoNormal">Let’s just say that you have a website selling a product. Everyone knows that you need traffic to make sales on your product. The idea of going online is to make money. The answer is yes but will it be enough for you to sustain your business full time?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you are looking for massive targeted traffic if you are selling a product, the best method is to get traffic from joint venture. This is the kind of traffic that can immediately boost sales. Why is this so?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Firstly, your joint venture partner will already have a list of subscribers. This is the best thing that any joint venture partners can provide you. When they start recommending your product to their list, you can expect a sudden increase in traffic and also sales.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p>&#8230;.Sell them what they WANT.</p>
<p>One of the biggest mistakes that product creators make is creating products that they think people need. The problem is, people don&#8217;t buy products that they need. They buy products that they want. And unless you understand this, you&#8217;re going to keep creating things that will continue to fail in the marketplace time and time again.</p>
<p>You can&#8217;t just create a product and put it out there thinking that this is what the people need. You have to first do your research to make sure that people actually want it.</p>
<p>Take sometime to absorb this and you will have a better idea the next time you create a product.<br />

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia">Everybody has a different idea of what multiple streams of income are. You hear this phrase thrown around like a basketball. We hear this everyday in the internet marketing world – you need to have multiple stream of income and everybody is talking about it. But very few people really understand what this concept really is. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia">Well, I’m going to set the record straight once and for all. After reading this, you may be surprised at what the real truth is.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia">A lot of people think that what this means is simply to throw up a ton of affiliate links on several blogs or forums or other forms of media and with that they have a multiple income stream. This couldn&#8217;t be farther from the truth. A true example of this concept is below. When you read it, you will truly understand it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia">Let&#8217;s take a fictional marketer. We&#8217;ll call him Tommy Lee. Tommy has decided that he wants to get into Internet marketing and make some money online. Fair enough and since this is the in thing nowadays, why not giving it a go? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia">Okay, so the first thing he does is some research and finds out that it is recommended that he gets income from as many sources as he can. Tommy, being the intelligent marketer that he is, takes this advice to heart and does just that.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia">The first thing he does is starts a membership site in the Internet marketing niche that provides sales copy services to new marketers at affordable rates. Since he is an excellent writer, he knows he can make a go of this. The service does very nicely, but he&#8217;s not resting on just that. He decides that he needs to diversify.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia">The next thing he does is he starts a product review site for many products in the Internet marketing niche. He posts honest reviews, either for or against a product, and then includes an affiliate link at the bottom of the review so that people can check out the product itself. He makes quite a few sales doing this. But Tommy isn&#8217;t done.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia">The next thing he does is to go completely outside of the Internet marketing niche itself. He decides to get into the field of automotive repair. He knows a lot about the subject and realizes that he has a great deal of information that he can share with others. So he puts up a site with articles on automotive repair and in the process promotes some products on the subject as well. He even writes his own book on the subject and sells it through Clickbank.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia">I hope you are clear about what Tommy is doing. If any of these niches were to fall apart on him, he would still have the income from the other niches. That is the true meaning of multiple streams of income.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia">I hope you find this useful and don&#8217;t forget it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">You are obviously very serious about your online business, and yet you cannot seem to cross the Rank # 20, Page 2 barrier of Google search listing for your primary keywords.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">A series of questions</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> arise from the imaginary situation above:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">1.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> Why is my ranking for the particular keyword not going up?<br />
<strong>2.</strong> Am I missing out on any SEO strategies?<br />
<strong>3.</strong> Maybe I am not building enough links? How much will be enough?<br />
<strong>4.</strong> Do I have to improve my content quality?<br />
<strong>5.</strong> The search engine has changed their algorithm (again)<br />
<strong>6.</strong> Others are using illegal SEO techniques<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">Now while one could go over</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> the questions in your head, read up on latest search engine algorithms, contact a SEO expert, or blindly start buying links out of desperation, there is an easier way to find your answers.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">Simply ask why are</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> the other 10 websites ranking before your website?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">Now that does not mean that the above questions 1 to 6 are not relevant, but simply put, one of the easiest ways to boost your search rankings is to study the top 5 to ten websites for your keyword and then apply what working for them into your own strategies.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"><!-- slut sektion1 -->Now I am not asking you to copy the competition or have a strategy that just involves beating the competition at the ranking game. It never works. What is needed is a better balance between your company&#8217;s SEO strategies and of those of your competitors.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">Like in any business strategy</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">, you have to know your competitors, study what strategies they are using, and then apply the best of those strategies to your own game plan.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">In the same way, in defining the SEO path ahead for your website you must analyze your competition. What are they doing to rank in the top 10 that you are not doing? After all those websites are listed on the top for a reason, and they are applying SEO strategies that the search engine in particular seems to like.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">Now while finding the answers</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> to those questions in the real business world may be difficult, in the online world all you have to do is to right-click and view the source of the page.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">The below simple steps</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> will open up a world of information to you.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">1.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> Does the domain name contain the keyword? If the link is a sub domain then does the sub domain contain the keyword?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">2.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> In what <st1:place w:st="on">Meta</st1:place> tags, title, etc has the competition placed their keywords?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">3.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> Does the link name contain the keyword? eg. www.seo-optimization-experts.com/mumbai-seo-expert.html<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">4.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> How many keywords are listed in the keyword tag i.e. is the page focused around one or two keywords, or is it a jumble of keywords listed out.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">5.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> Is the title and description captivating enough?

<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">6.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> Is the page graphic intensive? Is the site using a lot flash or active server pages? Search engines cannot understand graphics, only the text it can read on the page. Make sure there is a good balance between the graphics and content.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">7.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> How long is the body text? Writing 400 to 600 words is normally fine.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">9.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> Is the content interesting to you as the reader?

If your new website has not been properly optimized for the search engines, then this is a necessary first step you must take. Ensure that your new site has integrated the appropriate keywords into all the fundamental areas of the site. Without this critical step of optimizing your site, in many cases no level of promotion will help you get those search rankings.</p>
<p><strong>Press Releases</strong><br />
The first thing you should do when your site goes live is issue a press release. Be sure to include a link back to your website, preferably with your target phrase hyperlinked as well. Submit this press release to an aggregator such as <a href="http://www.prweb.com/" title="http://www.prweb.com/"><span style="color: navy">PRWeb</span></a>. This will help get the word out that your site is live, draw some attention from the public, and also get you that first valuable link to your website.</p>
<p><strong>Search Engine Submission</strong><br />
This days search engines will find your site on their own, and submitting to them is not necessary. If you feel you must submit your site to the engines, submit it only once and shortly after the site goes live.</p>
<p>In order to help the search engines fully spider your new site, the best thing you can do in terms of submissions, is to create and submit an XML sitemap. Submit this sitemap to your Google Webmaster Tools account, and also be sure to include a call to it within your robots.txt file by adding the following line including a complete path to your sitemap:</p>
<p><strong>Sitemap: http://www.domain.com/sitemap.xml</strong></p>
<p>There are many tools out there to help you build your xml sitemap. Google has placed a list of some of these tools on their &#8220;<a href="http://code.google.com/sm_thirdparty.html" title="http://code.google.com/sm_thirdparty.html"><span style="color: navy">Third Party Programs</span></a>&#8221; page. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: 7.5pt; margin-left: 7.5pt"><span style="font-family: Georgia; color: #222222"><br />
<st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placename w:st="on"><strong>Link</strong></st1:placename><strong> <st1:placetype w:st="on">Building</st1:placetype></strong></st1:place><br />
There are a number of ways you can work to grow your back links. Today they play a significant role in search rankings for most industries, especially in Google. While the future will almost undoubtedly still see search value in links, even if that value declines, or disappears entirely, quality links can still help drive traffic as well, and a strong base of inbound links can deliver you customers well into the future.</p>
<p>Explore the different ways to build links to your site. A steady progressive rise in inbound links will help Google look positively in your direction. Do not be afraid of reciprocal links either. If you are trading with highly relevant websites to your industry, then you should have nothing to be afraid of.</p>
<p><strong>Social Media</strong><br />
Promotion largely consists of building links and becoming recognized by the search engines, but in order to help you build those links, getting your name and brand out there can really do wonders. By increasing awareness of your site and product, the public will often help create the buzz you need, and often, this can result in fresh links to your website.</p>
<p>To help get your site in the eyes of as many people as possible, take a look into Social Media and consider creating profiles on some of the popular platforms. This can include creating a YouTube account and uploading instructional, informational, or interesting product videos. You can set up a Facebook page, and work to build a community around your product. Create a profile page on Squidoo, MySpace, and Flickr, amongst many others.</p>
<p>These pages often act as backlinks to your site, and also help spread awareness. Your use of social media does not have to be exactly about your company. For instance, let&#8217;s say you sell cars. Your use of the social platform, while it may note your business, can focus on other car info including trivia, news, photos, etc. The key is to keep it relevant, not identical - you are not looking to create a mirror of your site.</p>
<p><strong>Article Writing</strong><br />
Write articles about the subject of your website and submit them to various services such as <a href="http://www.ezinearticles.com/" title="http://www.ezinearticles.com/"><span style="color: navy">EzineArticles</span></a>. Consider also writing for your blog to help grow your site content. By writing and distributing relevant articles you can create a nice cushion of relevant incoming links. By writing articles that closely match the topic of your site, and including a link back to relevant content within your site, you can help out not only with search engine rankings, but by creating an extra traffic stream for your site.</p>
<p></span><span style="font-family: Georgia; color: #222222"><strong>Summary</strong><br />
In general, reference your website everywhere possible. Get links from every relevant source you can think of, issue a press release, and get your site listed in the key directories for your industry. The more eyes you can put your URL in front of and the more relevant sites you can get to link back to yours, the sooner you will start to see progress in the search engines.</p>
<p>For many industries it can literally take years to get those coveted first page results - in some industries it may be near impossible, but if you want a chance, you need to start promoting that new site of yours immediately. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

Well, SEO to some is the most important element if you want to start making money online but to some, it is just another way for us to make money online. So depending on how you look at it, this can go on and on, talk after talk, debate after debate etc etc.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">For those who are still confuse about SEO, I hope the article below will help you to better understand what SEO is all about and how it SEO works.<strong><o:p></o:p></strong></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">SEO, or search engine optimization</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">, is the most important element in building a successful website. Most people online have heard the term SEO and have some idea of what is involved yet it remains a mysterious process to many. One of the reasons SEO is so mysterious is that it can be a complicated endeavor and search engines are constantly changing the way they rank sites and the way the recognize the many tools of SEO.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">At the forefront of the SEO check and balance system</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> is the leading search engine Google. They have pretty much set the standard for technology in search engine algorithms that can track the relevancy of a website to its content and SEO efforts. Their ranking system remains one of the most popular methods of determining a web site&#8217;s quality because of their diligent efforts of weeding out the bad apples that have little to offer a consumer other than skilled manipulation and the ability to &#8216;play the system&#8217; to their advantage.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">Of course taking advantage of the system makes perfect sense from a business standpoint but from the search engine outlook of wanting to provide the best quality sites on their results for the viewer it can become difficult to differentiate the site that is good quality wise from the site that is good because it has a very manipulative operator at the helm.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"><!-- slut sektion1 -->Because the rules for SEO evolve</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> and change rapidly the mystique of search engine optimization continues to confuse website owners. Many people build their websites thinking the only SEO tool they need is key word density. While key words are an important aspect in SEO they are not the only means to an end, they are simply a part of the puzzle. There is another tried and true method of SEO that is as relevant today as it was at the start of the concept of web 2.0 marketing and that is back linking. While back linking remains one of the most successful ways to get your site to rank high on the search engines it also has undergone some changes making the types of links important so that search engines do not penalize a site for bad incoming links.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">The term &#8220;back link&#8221;</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> refers to an outside link on another site that points to yours. In the past any link from another site would have a positive impact on your site by the search engines. Because there were so many gimmicks developed in the last few years to garner massive back links to websites such as link farms, and irrelevant reciprocal linking Google began to develop a way to weed out links that were purchased, or had little meaning or relevancy.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">Even though back linking</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> is used to manipulate search engine popularity there are many very legitimate reasons for using the system of back linking. Finding web sites that have a common interest to your own who are willing to place your link on their site can get you extra exposure. When their visitors come to their site they will see your link and likely visit your site as well.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">The fact that onsite links like that have such a perceived relevance to the visitor makes them a valuable marketing tool, but that perception of quality is also why Google works so hard to be sure they are real quality links. You will get higher ranking on a search engine for a number of truly appropriate back linking partnerships however if the sites linking to you do not share any common information or products Google will penalize you for the link. There are new programs in the works with Google where your site could even be devalued if the site that links to you is determined to be bad quality so it is important who you choose to link to, and also who links to you.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">In the past</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> many web site owners would open up multiple websites with the sole purpose of promoting one principle site. They would use the extra websites as a means of placing back links to the main site. Google now watches for sites that are created with the same IP address. Creating a large number of websites on the same IP address and putting back links on them to quickly develop a number of links is known as link bombing. That is not to say that you cannot ever link to your own website from a site you own. If there is a reason to show your visitors some additional information a few well placed back links are fine. It is when there are many links from each site all pointing to a single &#8216;main&#8217; site that the search engines look at them suspiciously.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"><!-- slut sektion2 -->The system Google is working hard to put in place</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> to discount a link from a bad site is why it is very important to know who is linking to you and if their site stacks up to your standards. It is no longer true that all inbound links to your site are good links. There are very good tools available online for free that can show you who is linking to you. If you find a site that is linking to you that you feel is questionable in terms of how they relate to your website either in information or product you should contact the webmaster of the site and demand that they remove the link to your website to avoid being penalized by the search engines.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">Probably the best way to obtain a back link</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> to your site is through anchor text. That is when you have another website with content that is relevant to your own (relevancy is ALWAYS important) including your site in the actual content of their site with a hyperlink inside the text. These back links are valued much higher than a simple sidebar link as long as they appear in the text in a way that has a fluid and meaningful association with the content of the article. There are several ways to get such back links.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">Providing articles to content sites with your link built into the article is one method. If you write very compelling information on your website is another as someone else with a similar site may wish to point it out on their own. You may not even realize they are doing it unless they tell you about it. This is one of the main reasons it is important to keep an eye on who is back linking to you. While the majority of those types of links are wonderful and you should thank the site owner for their inclusion, if you feel the site that is linking to you does not meet your standards, have similar information, or the content is not relevant to your site you should definitely ask them to remove your link.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black">Back linking is an extremely important aspect</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black"> of SEO development and it is something you need to understand well in order to implement and control it properly. There are many secrets and mysteries in the SEO world that diligent study can clear up. Keeping your website in good standing with the search engines and popular with your visitors is the best way to ensure a vital and profitable future for your business online.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">Just look back at the many projects you started, list it down on a piece of paper and see how many did you finish?<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">Sometimes it&#8217;s because the lack of focus, sometimes it&#8217;s because of procrastination&#8230; well, it can be because of a lot of things, there’s just too many to mention.<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">If you can &#8220;cure&#8221; yourself from procrastination, lack of focus, lack of energy, unorganized, etc &#8230; what if you can turn yourself into the most productive person you can ever be? Will you be successful and will you achieve the things that you want?<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">Now, here&#8217;s the trick to your success&#8230;<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">You just have to do enough to get the results you want and of course you know that. But most of the times, you never really finish things, and you never have done enough to deserve that huge success&#8230;<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">Get yourself from projects to projects, finish them all and I am sure you&#8217;ll get yourself somewhere closer to your goal. But if you keep starting and stopping, you&#8217;ll never learn anything and the best thing is, you&#8217;ll never get anywhere&#8230;<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">What if you can get more done in so little time? What used to require a month, can now be done in just a week. If we count this as projects, you could finish 40 to 50 projects a year, instead of just 12.<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">Doing 40 to 50 projects a year, how close do you think it&#8217;ll take you to your goal?? And how much time you&#8217;ll save??<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">If it requires four years, you can cut it short to 1 year.<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">This is what makes the difference and honestly, this is how successful people get successful. They did more than you did, at a much faster time.<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">If you look at someone who is younger than you, but much more successful, do you think he&#8217;s done more than you&#8230;? I bet my last dollar on that!<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">Take a look at any industry and you will see that the successful guys and gals always have a better system, they meet more people, present many more times&#8230; than you could in the same amount of time.<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">And that granted them their success. I believe the same is for internet marketing and the online business industry. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial"><o:p> </o:p>That&#8217;s why most successful people are not the most brightest. You may know more than him, but he&#8217;s done more than you&#8230;<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial">The key to your success is persistence. Keep doing and never give up.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.zacksays.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/seo.jpg" rel="lightbox[pics-1216206732]" title="SEO"><img src="http://www.zacksays.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/seo.thumbnail.jpg" alt="SEO" class="imageframe" height="154" width="200" /></a><span style="font-family: Tahoma"> Is it a dying industry or do they still play a big part in the success of your business?<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Tahoma">It used to work before but not anymore. We heard this many times and have seen too many of it. As search engine getting smarter each day, many SEO experts are left with no clues of what is going on. It used to be so simple – yeah that was many years back when search engines were not advance enough to show relevant information.<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Tahoma">It used to be easy to rank high in Google years back and why is this so? When I started selling online, it was so damn easy to rank high in Google. There were little competitor and it was easy to beat them in the SEO game. It only takes you a couple of minute to put the relevant metatags and within few days, you are there - even a donkey can do the job.<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Tahoma">I moved from metatags to inbound links with the right anchor text and continued my domination. It was easy and not difficult at all. That was back then and you can call it guaranteed SEO placement and dominance.<o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Tahoma">Eventually, the search engines get smarter and ended the concept of guaranteed placement but some people (SEO Expert) are still in denial. There no longer the term “guaranteed placement” on the search engines and that is why, when anyone comes up to you and tell you that they can guarantee you top placement in Google, you should start running as far as you can and don’t turn back.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Tahoma">Here is why SEO is a dying industry and it will continue that way. Search engines are too smart and they have a different agenda. They do not want to reward crummy companies that play SEO games–they want to give the top listings to the best companies. And they are quickly gaining access to the information they need to do exactly that. They will use traffic and buying stats to figure out who the top companies are and it’s a good thing in a way too. They will also use stats that track how long your visitors stay on your website after they arrive. If your site is relevant to your visitors, they will tend to stay longer and not just get out within 3 seconds.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Tahoma">So the real thing now is for any company to succeed in getting SEO traffic, there’s a lot of other factors that they need to fulfill and I think it is just a fair game that the search engines are now moving towards this.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
