Can Bing Beat Google?

In the battle of search engines we ask - can Bing beat Google? The short answer is no. Look how Firefox is beating Internet Explorer. It is that Microsoft is no longer the focus company Bill Gates built, but tragically become the GM of Software. A big bloated company that produces over price junk.

Links to avoid

Google hates link farms. Please avoid a link from throw away domains. People, you are not doing yourselves any favors by getting links from these dubious and shady web sites. The damage to your ranking could be mega.

OK are neg reviews good for biz?

People wonder if negative reviews are good for business. Well, my answer is an emphatic no. There is a clown that goes to amazon and gives bad reviews of my material. This guy never even read them. I can tell you the effect of a negative review is a decrease in sales.

Well, imagine a movie critic that does not even step foot into a cinema, but give a motion picture a nasty review without even seeing it. OR, better yet, a person that is critical of a future toy before it even comes.

Search Engine Optimization - Future of SEO

We need to invest time in Search Engine Optimization. This will help us reap rewards in the near future. It is far less expensive to do an SEO campaign than one in PPC. Also, SEO will increase your visibility to a world wide audience of viewers.

Few in big biz understand the power in SEO, however this will not last long. In fac, our current economic crisis will force many to spend less on PPC and more on SEO. This will lead to greater competition in the future.

bounce rate improving

Getting high ranking in search engines is important, and one SEO mark is bounce rate. Helping to lower a high bounce rate will improve your standing. The important thing to remember is that adding a lot of links to your web pages with catchy titles will lower your bounce rate. The more content you have, the more likely a person will stay longer on your site and not hit the back arrow.

Writing Killer Blog Titles

Make all the words carry weight, and initcap the first letter of each word. They say use :action words - I say that the best words are controversial. Try to keep it simple and not make it too wordy. Short and sweet is the best in a title, but make dang sure your keywords are in the title. It is easy to write killer blog titles.

say no to nofollow

There is no reason to use nofollow. The link juice will evaporate. It use to be that people would slap a rel nofollow on outgoing links to prevent leaking of linkjuice, but those days are over.

Sadly, new algo will make trouble for you, by destroying link value of nofollow links. This is not good. Try to use rel nofollow only to prevent a page from being index and it still gets indexed. The attribute is worthless now.

RAT in SEO

Relevant Authority Transfer or RAT is the key in creating back links. Actually, you want links that are relevant and are similar in content to your page. This is the new reality in creating content for our SEO.

Link love is based on getting people to create anchor text that points to your site. All we have to focus on is creating stellar content and the links will come.

Google Expands Into Display Ad Market

Youtube Down

If you go on twitter, you will find out that Youtube was down today - check it out. This is sad, but we can many times come to rely on a service and later it goes down. I use Youtube a lot, but it is a good idea to not put all your eggs in one basket.

Optimize for permalinks

When you create content, please optimize for permalinks, because that way you will get more traffic to your web site/blog. Sadly, many SEO gurus give wrong permalink instructions. Try to get you main keywords to be in the URL. This will help you rank high in the search engines. Please add more keywords to your body copy to match those in the URL for your links.

SEO Trap

If you make your niche too narrow then not enough people will link. Also, if your pages are NSFW - not safe for work, then people will not view your content as much. If your content is deemed very inappropriate for a professional work environment expect few links. OK so make sure that you try to appeal to a broad audience.

It is an SEO trap to appeal only to a small group. Also, avoid offending groups of people with your humor. The key to SEO success is lots of articles and long tail keywords.

SEO Audit

I know most of you hate the word - audit. That is because you are thinking about taxes. Well, I am talking about an SEO Audit. This is making sure that you look at your site and find where the holes are. Prepare a list of pages with broken links to fix. Make sure there are no spelling errors as search engine will penalize you.

SEO traffic

Here are some tips to getting traffic using SEO.

Create one page per keyword and focus on that theme. Find outside links to help the main topic of your page. Make sure keyword is in title, subheads, and body copy.

Get ideas using nichebot and focus your efforts on very long tail keywords with low volumes of search activity. For example, less than one hundred clicks per month.

Do not waste time optimizing for tiny niche as those with less than ten clicks per month as there is not enough traffic to make it worth your while.
