Earn Money With Your Computer

Time management and organization is incredibly crucial to your success online. I have personally found the key to my success simply in my daily routine. It is the things that I consistently do on a daily basis. Advertising online is not a one time deal. It takes placing advertising in various places over the web every single day, even it is only for half an hour each day. Too many people get caught up in doing something once, receiving some return on that work, and then failing to continue to do what they did that one day to produce those results on a daily basis.

If you have many places you place ads on a regular basis then keeping track of them can be a big headache. For example, say you have one place you can send an e-mail advertisement every seven days, another place you can send every 48 hours, and another place you can send every 72 hours. It can get even more complex than that when you start adding on more, such as a lot of different safelists that limit you to mailing every so many days or hours, or possibly even advertisements you place on certain days of the week, or solo ads you send once a month. There are also tasks you will need to do on a daily basis, and keeping track of these is just not as simple as one would hope.

If you have had this problem, or expect that you will...more likely than not, I am happy to pass on the solution to you. Now I don't own this neat little program and I'm not even an affiliate for it, so I get absolutely nothing for recommending it to you, but that is how strongly I believe in being organized with your online marketing. The name of the program I use is called EssentialPIM. You can download it for free at EssentialPIM.com. That's right, I use the free version and it does everything I need so you don't need to upgrade.

The nice thing about it is you can add new tasks, and these tasks can be recurring for an unlimited time. So if you have a safelist you are going to send an ad to every 48 hours, create a new task with the name of the safelist telling yourself to mail to it and have it repeat. Now you can see it in the schedule for the day and even get a reminder about it if you want. Now there is no more confusion of keeping track of what to do and when! Most importantly you will now be following a daily routine. Want to encourage yourself to surf traffic exchanges for an hour every 3 days? Then all you have to do is add a task and have it remind you every three days. This way you will begin getting the things done that are needed to experience the success you have always wanted.

Another important task is to give yourself time to learn something new every week. If you are always learning something new and constantly expanding your marketing and advertising knowledge you will be on a very successful road. Knowledge and consistency is the key!

Article marketing is an effective and affordable way to promote your website. In some instances, it is even completely free if you're the one writing the articles to be submitted to directories.

Here are some fast article marketing tips that can help your website get a bigger presence online in just a short period of time:

1.) Quality content never gets old. Articles need not to be longer than 500 words, but they need to be full of interesting information if you want them to be popular. Nevertheless, there is no reason to worry; writing articles for marketing purposes don't have to be perfect. They only have to be meaningful and entertaining to read.

2.) Submit your articles to a lot of popular article syndication sites. It may seem like a tedious data entry job, but stick to doing it. The more high-quality article directories you send your articles to, the more chances they have to reach a wider audience who'll appreciate their value.

3.) You can also market your articles as an online magazine, or e-zine. You can use your e-zine as a means to get hold of your visitors email address by asking for their contact details before they can sign up to get issues.

4.) If you've written a lot of articles on a certain topic, you can compile them to one e-book. You can use this e-book as a marketing tool by selling it a discounted price or giving it away as a freebie to entice more people to join your mailing list. Make sure your site's URL show up prominently in your e-book's pages so that people will be curious enough to make a visit.

Article marketing is a very diverse world that many people often gain great success in. This success however does come with great effort. There is not one thing in Internet Marketing that does not take effort. Everything you earn will be the result of how much effort you put into it.

Today the subject I will be writing about will be about Article Marketing. Article Marketing is one of the best marketing tactics that a person can have. Article Marketing can be a valuable asset that could make you lots of money in the long run. Here are five tips that can improve your efforts...

1. Select A Good Niche

The Niche that you write about can make a big difference in how you operate your Article Marketing enterprise. First, select a niche that you can really write about without sounding like an idiot that does not know what they are writing about. If somebody reads something that sounds like the writer knows nothing about the topic, what would that look like? It would look like the writer is a liar and we don't want that.

2. Proofread Everything

If a reader sees that you have poor handwriting, why would they even see your website? Something small like handwriting can make a tremendous effect for the better good or bad. Always spell check everything that you place on a article distribution website. A potential customer could look at an error in your spelling and turn away from what you are offering without thinking twice.

3. Research Your Topic

Make an attempt in giving your reader time-saving information that they could use. This includes actually researching the topic you are writing about. If a reader receives valuable information you will be repaid for it by being called an expert. This title will create many new leads that pay for your advice. So when you make the effort, you will get something in return. This return could be anything from new leads to affiliate income.

4. Choose Your Article Distribution Service Carefully

The distribution service will determine how your articles are viewed by readers. If you have your articles on a highly respectable website, it will do better because the author put the article on a higher quality website instead of another website. If the reader finds the article on a lower site, that would look like the author does not pay attention to where they submit their articles to. So that is why I suggest that you never use article submitters because your articles might show up on junk sites. Google might also look at where you place your article and make a judgment that your site is good or bad.

5. Choose The Right Keywords

The entire world of Article Marketing revolves around what kind of keywords you use for your article. If you use the wrong type of keywords, your article could up in a place that is unrelated to your niche. This could be a problem if Google is searching for websites that are relevant to your website link. If you have a article that is related to health care and it ends up on a website that is dedicated to travel, Google will see that and will make the conclusion that the article is on a unrelated website. So it pays off when you choose the right kinds of keywords.

One of the most popular money making concepts on the internet today is Bum Marketing. When you first come across the term 'Bum Marketing' you are likely to be a little taken aback by the terminology. A quick Internet Search will let you in on the background and the concept behind this term - that it is a method of making money online so simple that the Author believes be can take a Bum off the street and have him earning money by the end of the week.

The 'Bum Method' really is that simple. You simply find a keyword that does not have a high level of competition, but attracts a reasonable number of searches. Write an article that is bound to appeal to the people searching for that term, and insert an affiliate link into the article before submitting it to article sites. Article sites are special content sites that accept submissions from many different authors and as a result of their high levels of updated content; they attract a huge amount of attention from the search engines. If someone clicks through your affiliate link and goes on to make a purchase, you get a commission for the sale. Even better, the article is out there for years after you complete it, meaning it could be earning you commissions well into the future!

To begin the process you need to find an affiliate program, and then find a word or key-phrase that is related to the product you are promoting. Selecting your keyword is important because you want to find one that people are searching for regularly, and that advertisers are using. Why look for one that advertisers are already using? The goal of a bum marketing article is to go straight to the top of the natural search engine results. The advertisers are paying money through Google Adwords to be listed at the top, so we know they are earning something back, but with a Bu marketing Article we can get on the first page for free! The lower the number of competing results, and the higher the number of ads the greater earning potential a BUM article has.

Once you have the keywords, it's time to write an article that will be noticed by the readers of ezine sites, and by the search engines. The key here is to have your article be rich in original content, and also provide value to those who read it. Tips tricks and insights are the most popular types of articles, and lead to a higher rate of click trough's. By making small changes to the way you do things you will strike on the formula that brings people back again and again for more sales.

Once your article is published on one of the more popular sites like ezinearticles.com or goarticles.com, you will find the amount of traffic to your website improves quickly. You may even find your article becomes syndicated, which will greatly increase the traffic through your back link.

Whether you use Bum Marketing as your only method of online marketing, whether you use it to test the waters in the online world, or whether you use it as a stepping stone to test your keywords before moving them to a pay-per-click campaign, Bum Marketing is a cheap and easy way to start your online earnings.

Well there you have it. A brief article, on bum marketing. How we use it to earn extra income. I trust you found something beneficial and/or informative to help you in your online ventures.

Maybe you have seen the article generation light. Now, you realize that you may have lost some ground in search engine optimization, by failing to react to the need for unique content on your Blogs and web sites.

What should you do to produce articles as soon as possible? Many businesses, and website owners, respond with a vengeance, by creating quick articles. Are the articles produced going to be useful to your customers and prospects? This will take a bit of planning. For example, you could create useful articles by elaborating on your current frequently asked questions (FAQs).

If you do not have an FAQ page, your articles can be recycled into a very useful tool for prospects. Recycling your articles is a great way to use your article more than once. In the long run, recycling will also save you time.

I am not talking about article mashing, one good article into one hundred senseless articles, with software. Many people love parrots, but who wants to read one hundred articles written by a parrot? Articles have to say something more than the same message over, and over, again.

Hence the words unique content, effectively describe what readers and search engines are looking for. Customers want as much information as possible about your product or service. While search engines spiders look for original, relevant, and unique content, as they patiently crawl the web.

A few well written articles could become an SEO magnet to your site, a free report, an FAQ page, and part of your newsletter. You can be as creative with recycling as you like, but tweak your copy, so that it is useful to your readers. Your articles will help you establish a trusted long-term relationship with your readers, prospects, and customers.

Content is the king of any site. There are instances when your article does not get picked up by search engine in spite of having a strong content. In this case, article linking will be very effective. If you link your site to any other popular site, then there is the maximum possibility of your content to get noticed. Marketing of your site can only make your content read by a large number of visitors. Article syndication is nothing but a powerful marketing tool. It is totally different from search engine optimization. By adopting this method, you can popularize your article and your site. For this reason, it is very important that you keep your content original.

Article syndication links up your article to various well known sites. For this, it requires an informative content. However, there are many writers that pay a foul game with content. They use those keywords in their content which are widely searched but do not have anything to do with the original content. If this is the scenario, then that site will not be picked up by any popular sites and in the later period of time it will be banned. While writing content, the content writer should be well versed with keyword density, meta tags, alt tag etc. An article is a very strong weapon of any site. If an article is not interesting and informative then adopting article syndication also will not be make your site visible. So, it is very important that you make your content highly readable, interesting and up-to-date. Always try to freshen up your site.

If your site is not noticed by any one then your effort to write new content will ended in smoke. Article syndication will link your article to another site and make people noticed your article and read it. In this way, the site and the article will become popular. To start with it, a site should hire a content writer to write articles for their website. After writing the content it is necessary to post the article in all the well known sites. The article should have the link of its site. It is very important that the article is submitted in all the popular bookmarking sites. Even if a surfer does not have any idea regarding your site, through bookmarking he will able to reach your site. In this way, your site will get a new visitor.

Article syndication will increase traffic and increase sales. It is all about marketing your article in all the popular sites. Before writing article, one should do some basic research on the keywords. There are many keywords tool that can be make into use while writing content. If your article has required number of keywords than only it will get picked up by popular site like Google, MSN, Yahoo etc. There are many websites that do an extensive study on how to advertise its article.

In SEO, off page issues have become more and more significant as they relate to rankings. In particular, link popularity can build or destroy a website with the search engines.

Link popularity is the number and quality of the incoming links that are pointing to your website. It can be determined that these other sites that link to you, consider your site important enough to link to.

From the search engines point of view, your website is considered important as well.

One of the most difficult areas of SEO is building link popularity because the search engines don't want unnaturally fashioned links, so there are no easy ways to create link popularity.

The days of link farms and huge link exchange programs are history. Those strategies now could have you booted out of a search engine.

The search engines like links from valued websites. These are called 'authoritative' sites. The first one you should try and get a link from is the Open Directory Project (ODP) otherwise known as DMOZ. Listings are free of charge, but can take a notoriously long time to get. Make sure you follow the instructions to the letter - or you will be wasting your time trying.

Yahoo is the other major directory, but this will cost you a couple of hundred bucks each year.

The other aspects the search engines look for are, if the links are coming from websites that share the same subject of focus as your website.

Again, this is where the directories provide a strong basis from which to construct your link building strategy, because you can list your website in an appropriate relevant category - with related products or services to yours.

Apart from the link popularity you gain by getting a major or authoritative website to link to you, you will also gain additional visibility and subsequently traffic for your Web site.

Good luck with your link building strategy.

1. Bank on your content. The best way to increase the chances of your articles being read and widely republished is by offering high-quality content to your readers. Your articles must be content-rich, well-written, keyword-rich, short, scannable, and highly relevant to the needs of your target market. When you are able to incorporate all these elements on each of your articles, you can be assured that they will become instant hits online.

2. Make your titles attention-grabbing. The online competition starts when online users searched for your keywords and they are presented with numerous articles on search engine result page. To give your articles an edge and increase their open rate, use titles that can stir the right kind of attention online. They must be striking, interesting, and compelling. So, instead of using "Article Marketing Tips", you can use "10 Fresh Secrets to Excel with Article Marketing"

3. Carefully choose your topics. If you are trying to build quality traffic to your website, you should write about topics that are highly related to your business, products, and target niche. That means, if you are selling diet pills, stick with topics about weight loss, weight gain, and obesity.

4. Use numbers. People are proven to respond better with numbers as they communicate precise information. Use graphs, statistics, etc. when appropriate.

5. Widely distribute your articles. To generate more inbound links for your website, don't' be contented with article submission sites and post your articles on forums, social networking sites, blogs, or on your website.

Article marketing is attractive because it doesn't cost any money, it's easy to do, and it brings in traffic to your website immediately. The only downside is that it takes some work to consistently crank out high quality articles. The minute you stop submitting articles to the directories, your traffic begins to dry up.

That's why one of the most important things to learn in article marketing is how to write high quality articles fast. I have developed several different techniques for doing this, depending on the topic at hand. One of the best techniques I use is the "why, what, how, what if", because it works for every article.

First, let's consider why it works. It's a system. Just like you wouldn't build a house without a blueprint, you shouldn't write articles without having a guide to follow. This guide is simple:

1. Why - tell they why they need to know the information you're going to share in your article
2. What - tell them what they need to know and what is the most relevant aspects of the topic
3. How - tell them how to use your information. Give them exercises or a step-by-step action plan they can execute immediately after reading the article
4. What if - give them some hypothetical results they can expect to achieve by following your information

There are two killer reasons which makes the above outline so effective. The first reason is that I stole this outline from a book on learning styles. A Harvard professor found that we have one of four basic learning styles. 31% of people have a "why" learning style.

So if you don't tell someone why they need to know the information you're going to share with them, they can't comprehend it! In other words, they'll never act on it because they won't know why they should.

So not only is it a great way to knock out articles at high speeds, but it also makes sure you hit every learning style along the way.

One last secret - not only is this a great formula for articles, but it's a perfect formula for creating your own information products. And that's where the money is really at.

Article marketing is currently the most sought-after marketing technique in the internet today because it makes traffic generation a lot easier for most webmasters. All you need to do is write and submit articles to publishing sites and you can instantly create numerous inbound links for your website. It's that easy!

1. Be the first to write about time-sensitive information. Always be on the look out for scoops or latest news that have direct impact on your target niche and be the first one to report about it. Usually, the first person who writes about the hottest topics is the one who gets most of online exposure.

2. Be entertaining. Most online users get easily bored when reading articles on their computer monitor. Make your articles lively and upbeat so you can entertain them while educating them. Insert some jokes and funny quotes whenever appropriate.

3. Be trustworthy. Establish your expertise on your field and always check your content to make sure that they are all factual. It is through these ways that you can entice online users to trust you, listen to your opinion, and subsequently take your recommendations.

4. Make your articles informative. People read articles for one major good reason: to be informed. Make your articles "meaty" by including enough data and information that are deemed useful and important to your target market.

5. Your articles must be of high-quality. You would like online users to think that you are an expert on your field and a great writer after they read your article, wouldn't you? Make sure that all your articles are well-written and content-rich before you post them online.

6. Know your readers. To make sure that your content is highly targeted to your potential clients, you need to know your readers very well. Take into consideration their preferred writing style, their language, the information they need, their wants, educational background, etc. when writing your articles.

Some web publishers are perfectly thrilled to gain a little cash for their work. Others, however, really want to boost their profits. Should you be in the latter group, you're most certainly not on your own. One of the many ways to make this happen includes using Text Link Ads on a blog or website. This is a fantastic way to go, but some effort needs to be in the mix to make this option pay out well.

The Text Link Ads company is a well-known one that offers publishers and advertisers a place to meet to buy and sell ads. The TLA affiliate program is one that can pay out extremely well for those who can make it work. Publishers who sign up for the program get $25 for each successful referral they make to other advertisers or publishers. If you're the publisher, you get paid the $25 when another publisher signs up and puts ad scripts up for at least a week. The program also rewards referring publishers when a new advertiser buys a link. Payments from TLA are steady. They come once a month in the mail or through PayPal.

While this sounds really easy, and it can be, the reality is publishers often have to work the program to their advantage to see real rewards. The trick involves the strategy that's used to get your visitors to click through and sign up. Sending readers to TLA isn't enough. They actually have to use the site's services for you to earn any money.

A popular way to increase click through rates and earning potential is to ensure TLA ads have good placement on your site. Making sure these ads are visible is vital. It's also not a bad idea to include a second link with your referral information on the same page as the box ad. Duplication is not a bad thing in this case.

Better ad placement is, of course, important, but there are other steps that can be taken to increase earning chances. Targeting the right visitors for conversions can also be important. Since publishers must sign up, gain approval and then run the ad script for the set number of day, they very likely should not be your focus. Target the advertisers instead.

There are a host of things you can do to increase the actual commissions. They fall into three major categories: ad placement, overcoming the "invisible" banner and self-promotion.

If the TLA affiliate program is going to be successful, people have to see the ads. There are some great ideas to help make them stand out. They include including TLA text links or even banners following each blog post or website article, making sure ads appear in the top of the page, making sure the ads are linked in the site's "links" section and rotating ads. It can also help to have friends, family members, co-workers and acquaintances review ad placement and give their input on what catches their eyes. Creating special TLA landing pages can be rather helpful, too.

Compensating for web surfers' noted ad blindness is another issue that will need to be overcome. Some site owners create personalized banners that include statements about earning potentials and not the direct TLA information. These ads link to TLA's pages directly or to an onsite presell page instead. Adding a recommendations page with TLA's information and other affiliate programs can be useful, as well.

Promoting your TLA affiliation program can also be rather beneficial. Ways to do this include buying forum signatures with the link included, leveraging Adwords to send people to your presell page, buying blot posts that direct people to the presell page and even sponsoring eZines and other similar publications with the affiliate link included.

Promotions alone can drive in traffic, but other steps might be necessary to increase conversion rates. Some of the better ideas here include running contests for those who sign up for TLA using your affiliate links, giving some form of cash back for each person who signs up or even providing free advertising via links on your site. The ideas here are many. Creativity can really pay off.

The TLA affiliate program can be a rather lucrative one if it's worked correctly. Taking the time to tweak your site, promote your affiliation and entice readers to act can really help.

Article marketing is one of the very best ways that you can build a six figure income. I am sure if you have just read that previous statement you will want to read it again.

You may have written a few articles and gotten some results, but not realized how powerful this method of marketing actually is. However, it is a numbers game and the more articles that you have out there the higher your number of subscribers and sales.

So let us look at how you generate money from article marketing in forensic detail. You need to write articles focusing on your niche market and submit them to all the article directories. Here you will get free search engine traffic because these directories have a very high page rank. You will include a link to your squeeze page in your resource box. When somebody reads your article and likes what you have to say they will click through to your website and subscribe to your newsletter. Using your autoresponder you can follow up and convert them from a subscriber into a paid customer.

Now one of the biggest problems with article marketing is that you need thousands of articles to generate a six figure income. Also writing and submitting them to directories takes a very long time as this is extremely time intensive. So for most people they simply do not do the volume that is required to achieve a six figure income.

Now the expert article marketers outsource everything. They may have started doing everything themselves to get everything going and generate a profit, but once they start earning a decent income they hire people to write the articles and submit them to the different directories. Using sites like Elance you can easily find people to do all of this and I know of one article marketer who pays a dollar for every article that gets written.

Anyone who can produce quality articles can succeed in this field and the only thing you have to remember is, you have to be consistent so the flow of traffic to your website will not cease.

Here are some of the top secrets to advance with article marketing:

1. Look for other avenues where you can post your articles. Don't be contented with publishing sites, blogs, ezines, and other websites. There are other marketers who are publishing their articles to websites that are syndicated by news aggregators and they get significant traffic because of this.

2. Stick to your topic. How would you like to read an article that talks about eight different topics? It can be downright confusing and annoying, right? So as not to disappoint your readers, make sure that your articles are focus on one central topic. If you have other topics in mind, create other articles for them.

3. Submit only original articles. Publishing sites have the resources to determine if your articles were copied from other site and they will reject your submission. To succeed in article marketing, you must make it a habit to write your own articles not only to respect other people's work but also to showcase your knowledge on your chosen niche.

4. Use easy to understand language and simple words. This is to make sure that your readers will not have difficulty understanding what you are trying to get across.

Article marketing is one of the very best ways that you can build a six figure income. I am sure if you have just read that previous statement you will want to read it again.

You may have written a few articles and gotten some results, but not realized how powerful this method of marketing actually is. However, it is a numbers game and the more articles that you have out there the higher your number of subscribers and sales.

So let us look at how you generate money from article marketing in forensic detail. You need to write articles focusing on your niche market and submit them to all the article directories. Here you will get free search engine traffic because these directories have a very high page rank. You will include a link to your squeeze page in your resource box. When somebody reads your article and likes what you have to say they will click through to your website and subscribe to your newsletter. Using your autoresponder you can follow up and convert them from a subscriber into a paid customer.

Now one of the biggest problems with article marketing is that you need thousands of articles to generate a six figure income. Also writing and submitting them to directories takes a very long time as this is extremely time intensive. So for most people they simply do not do the volume that is required to achieve a six figure income.

Now the expert article marketers outsource everything. They may have started doing everything themselves to get everything going and generate a profit, but once they start earning a decent income they hire people to write the articles and submit them to the different directories. Using sites like Elance you can easily find people to do all of this and I know of one article marketer who pays a dollar for every article that gets written.

The link exchange process is increasingly gaining popularity with many webmasters these days. Through this process, websites are able to exchange information easily and it also serves as mechanism to boost the page rank in search engines. This process is incidentally utilized to keep a tab on the internet traffic and even direct it.

Suppose you are looking for information on some electric gadgets. You would definitely like to visit a website that has the links to various companies providing the gadget. It would help you from searching again and again, providing the important information easily. You can simply click on the website link provided and view or open another website that has the information you require.

The link exchange is also used as a tool for direct marketing by the webmasters since the last many years. This process is credited with improving the position of the said website in the SERPs that is the Search Engine Result Page. The websites that have multiple links in them are preferred by the search engine as it helps them to evaluate the importance of the website as well.

If you wish to develop a website and need to make use of this process to link another website to your own website then you need to seek permission from the webmaster of the website. You can send him an email regarding the same. Alternately you can visit the webmaster discussion boards. Under this board you come across people who wish to adopt this practice. You can also find various directories or forums here that can guide you on this process and help you to contact particular websites.

As mentioned before, some of the webmaster may charge you for making their website available to you, while others may do so for free. Under the paid option, you might have to download or buy software to facilitate the link exchange process. In the other case where the link is available for free, the webmaster would have to add the link manually to his website.

If you wish that your website becomes popular then you should definitely make use of this method. Link your own website to other web pages and also add more links to your own page. Linking your web page to other sites would help the viewer to visit your website and adding links to your own page would make your site popular with the search engines.

The links provided should be in relation to what your website has to offer. It should compliment your website and should not look out of place. In other words the website you link with or use your web page should be relevant to your website.

Thus popular method of exchanging links is an important marketing mechanism used by the webmasters all over the world and is giving great benefits to its practitioners.

Link bait Getting other websites to link to your website can be a difficult task. But, as we all know, linking is one of the top methods employed by search engines to rank a website.

The number and quality of the links pointing to your website determine how much importance search engines place on the relevance of your listing in their search results. Link bait is one way that you can get some of those all important links.

Link baiting is a method, used by webmasters, to attract incoming links to their websites. The following definition, from Wikipedia, explains this concept.

Link bait is any content or feature within a website that somehow baits viewers to place links to it from other websites. Attempts to create link bait are frequently employed in the overall task of search engine optimization. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Link bait hooks

Link bait is a relatively new term but, the principles and practices of link baiting are not new. Webmasters have been using this viral marketing technique since the dawn of the Internet. Whenever a webmaster uses any form of enticement to get their visitors to link to their site they are in effect using a link baiting hook.

A link bait hook is any method or appliance used to gain the interest of visiting webmasters and entice them to link back to your website. A hook can take many forms. The important thing is that an effective hook must produce a call to action on the part of the visitor. They should be motivated by it to link back to your website.

Types of link bait hooks Methods of link baiting can be as creative or fundamental as you can imagine. Anything that compels your visitors to link back to your website, without being deceptive, is a good hook.

Although there are no set categories or types of link bait hooks commonly agreed upon by the Internet at large, it is not difficult to define a few. The following list is only a sampling of ideas. You can easily create your own.

Informational or "How To" Hooks Most Web users are seeking information. Providing a rich reference source or instructional website is a sure fire way to succeed in producing links back to your website. People will want to return often to a website that provides them with relevant information.

Content Hooks Provide fresh information and constantly changing content relative to a particular topic. This can be anything from aircraft types to zebra breeding as long as there is an audience for it. Becoming an expert on a particular subject will ensure back links.

Article Hooks Article writing is fast becoming one of the best ways to get links back to your website. If you can write well you can have your articles appear on one of the internet article publishers such as EzineArticles.com. Not only does this give you some exposure it also creates links back to your site.

Gizmo Hooks Create some sort of gizmo that is useful or entertaining to your visitors. Maybe a daily horoscope or quote of the day would work towards getting you some back links. New ideas spring up everyday.

The ultimate link bait hook It is my belief that the ultimate link baiting hook is quality content. Even the top websites owe their popularity to the quality of their content. If you are serious about designing a top ranking website then I say spend as much time as you can developing your content. That is the ultimate link bait hook.

Click baiting Another, often nefarious, method of using hooks is click baiting. This is when a webmaster uses some type of gimmick to fool you or bait you into clicking on a particular link. Usually a link that you the visitor would not have normally clicked. Needless to say this type of baiting is counter productive to the interests of your visitors.

The advent of contextual ad networks, such as Google AdSense and the Yahoo Publishers Network, have created a rash of such websites. Although they are constantly being policed by the big search engines, like spam, some of them still get through. Don't fall prey to this practice. It will hurt you in the end.

If you are just getting started with article marketing, or if you are still learning about article marketing, begin on the right foot. Here are seven simple rules you must know (and apply) in your article marketing campaign.

Rule #1: Make a plan. Before you begin writing articles, sit down and set a few goals for yourself. Know what your purpose is for marketing with articles.

Rule #2: Create a list of directories. Knowing where to submit your articles will save you time. Decide where you'll submit your articles. Create an account at each website and bookmark it.

Rule #3: Gather article ideas. You should never wait until you think you're ready to write a few articles to compile ideas. Jot down ideas you have every day. Keep a small notebook handy to write your ideas in. When you're ready to write articles, you'll have a miniature gold mine of ideas waiting for you.

Rule #4: Write fast. Lots of writers struggle over writing a perfect copy the first time around. Forget about it. Write fast, letting your thoughts flow onto the page. Once you're finished with your draft you can edit as much as you like.

Rule #5: Check spelling, grammar and word count. Before you submit your article to any directory, be sure you run a spelling and grammar check on the document. If you tend to forget to do this, write yourself a reminder on a sticky note and place it on your monitor screen.

Rule #6: Include a well-written resource box. This is the most important, and often most overlooked, part of the article marketing process. Always include a resource box with your articles that creates a call of action to your readers.

Rule #7: Be consistent. You can't write a handful of articles and expect huge results. Article marketing requires persistence and consistency. Plan long-term and you'll start getting amazing results from your article marketing efforts.

Building a hugely profitable list is an art. You must consistently learn the ropes until you master this highly valuable skill online. There are various methods in which you can build a massive list and start creating automated income. Here are 3 of the best "fast track" methods to build a big list quickly:

1. Forum posts

Go to the biggest forums in your niche, sign up and start posting! Don't just post anything though. Post up highly useful content and don't forget to also include your URL in your signature. This will build your list on autopilot if you devote a little time to each day to making a few posts. Users will use the 'Search' feature in the forum and many will find your posts if you are one of the top forum posters.

2. Article marketing

Write informative articles on your niche and submit them to most high-trafficked article directories. This will truly build your list on complete autopilot as the forums will remain in circulation for years and ezine publishers and bloggers will grab your articles (which contain your URL link in the resource box) and publish them on their websites, giving your articles a highly viral element.

3. Coregistrations

This is the "secret weapon" of big name marketers. Coregistrations work in this way: when you sign up for a coregistration service, your site will be placed on a "rolling" list where your ad will appear on the Thank You pages of other websites who also use the coregistration service. This is big leverage power! You can build a list of thousands really fast using this method. Go do some coregistrations if you can, but watch your budget. This can be quite costly, so thread carefully and read up on coregistrations before venturing further into this lucrative way of building a list!

Off-Page Factors That Search Engines Look For

The exact way in which the search engines rank the pages of a web site is not known to anyone outside of the inner circle of engineers working for Google, Yahoo, MSN etc. However there are some general principles on what is considered to be positive factors that can influence your rankings.

These factors relate mainly to the quality and quantity of incoming links to your site. Although outgoing links also play a part, they are not as important as incoming links.

Quality of Incoming Links

Quality is based on the perceived importance of the website linking to you. If the link is one way (you dont reciprocate by linking back) it carries more weight than a reciprocal link.

Another factor to consider is the relevance of the page that is linked to. Its no good having a page from a gambling site linking to a page on a health site. The more closely they match the better.

Relevance of On Topic Theme Content

Based on your sites content, the search engines determine the theme of your site and the relevance of your individual pages to your theme. This is one of the reasons why it is so important to focus on a niche topic and not go too broad.

The search engines are looking for sites that appear to be natural and not contrived to beat their algorithms. If your site has lots of incoming links but they all went to the same page, this would not appear to be natural. Similarly if lots of your links come from the same site or even the same server, this would raise alarm signals with the search engines and they could penalise your rankings.

Tip:

Do not try and fool the search engines by purchasing links from so called "link farms" or other dubious schemes. You may succeed for a short while, but the search engines will always catch you out and penalize your site heavily.

In SummarySEO is not an exact science a page could rank no 1 with Yahoo and not even be in the top 100 with Google. Similarly, a page that ranks well today could rank poorly tomorrow. Dont get too involved with trying to figure out what you are doing wrong. Stick to the basics of producing lots of good quality original content related to your niche and get as many quality incoming links as you can.

A good idea is to get some help in the form of step by step instructions and coaching videos designed specifically for newbies.

If you are a newbie struggling to make sense of internet marketing and want to find out more about search engine optimization and how anyone can now make profits from selling info products, Internet Business Buddy provides you with all the help you need.

If youre reading this article, youve probably discovered that simply building a website is not enough to ensure success with your small business. Competition on the web is fierce. Rising to the top of the search engines is often a combination of web-savvy marketing, link trading, and understanding the intricacies of complex ranking algorithms for search engines. You may have already spent a great deal of time optimizing your pages, creating content, and building your email lists. Its easy to get overwhelmed in your web marketing endeavors, especially if youre a small business or a business moving online from a brick-and-mortar location.

Dont worry - the marketing tools that youre about to work with will enhance your search engine rankings AND attract more visitors, and they dont require any extra coding or hard core marketing. You can accomplish a lot in three days - maybe enough to take the rest of the week off!

Day #1: Use Craigs List. (http://www.CraigsList.org)

This is a simple, but rarely used, tool for those that are not so tech-savvy. If youre not familiar with Craig's List, here is a bit of information: it is one of the most highly-trafficked websites for thirty-somethings and twenty-somethings on the web. CraigsList announced last year that they were currently serving over 75 million page views per month. The site is ranked among the world's 125 busiest websites (Alexa). Almost all ads are free (only employers pay to post "help wanted" ads in some areas), and highly trafficked in major cities such as San Francisco, New York, and DC. Craig's List adds instant link popularity - a friend of mine started a literary website and found himself with over 800 hits a day from several well-constructed CraigsList ads that were "googled".

How to Do It:

Step 1: Write the ad first. 50-100 keyword-rich words work best, along with a link using your target keywords. Craig's List accepts html tags and allows you to upload images. If you are an online retailer, consider advertising one product as a test with a link to your website's entrance.

Step 2: Decide which region you are posting in. If you are a national company, try out a major metropolitan area. If you are regional, stick to the area you service.

Step 3: Find the appropriate category for your ad. Don't spam the forums, the Craig's List Counter Culture will resent you! If your website advertises a massage business, choose "therapeutic services". If you offer classes, choose "lessons". If you don't fit into a specific category, choose "small business ads".

Step 4: Write a specific, keyword-minded headline - don't try to be too vague or clever. If you offer freebies or coupons, mention this in your ad.

Step 5: Post! And make sure you check your email to confirm the ad. (You can always tweak the ad as long as you keep the email.)

If you have time, create an additional ads. You'll have to change most of the content. CraigsLists software is intelligent with recognizing duplicate content. If you are compelled to place a second, third, or 30th ad, change up your keywords and rewrite the ad. Craig's List erases ads after 30-60 days, so be prepared to post again in a month or so. It's worth the effort - if not for the direct response, then at least for the link popularity. Craigs List is one of the first websites in line for the infamous Google dance.

Day #2: Become a Vendor

Okay, youre probably thinking, I already AM a vendor. My question to you is, Why arent you listed as one? Im not talking about the internet directories or link exchange websites that list thousands of vendors under the term resource directory. What Im referring to, specifically, is what associations, trade publications, and commerce websites term as a vendor list. (Sometimes also called a vendor directory.)

Vendor lists and directories are great tools to market your website, services and products to a specific niche. The best part is that most of these places dont require a link-back and your listing is permanent. The resources listed are provided as a service to their members. In fact, many of these companies will also send out a yearly print version of their vendor list. Your link popularity will be affected as well, since associations and other professional organizations are typically linked to by their members.(making them a popular site in the eyes of the search engines) It really doesnt matter what youre selling - a quick Google search will turn up links to a plethora of vendor lists in various industries and niches.

How to Do It:

Step 1: Using your keywords, prepare your descriptions ahead of time. If youve worked with link exchanges, youll probably already have a few descriptions in mind. The link title should contain your primary keywords. (Not necessarily your website or company name!) for example, if you sell magic supplies, youll probably want to use the word magic supplies in the title.

Step 2: Find the directories. Keep in mind, a lot of government website use these terms as well, which is great if you have a service or products to sell to the government - you can print out the paperwork to do later. Otherwise, ignore the .Use Google (of course!) to find specific niches. The following terms will help you find what you need. Substitute your market or service for the word keyword to find the directories you need.

- vendor list keyword

- keyword vendor list

- keyword supplier list

- supplier list keyword

- vendor directory keyword

- keyword vendor directory

- supplier directory keyword

- keyword supplier directory

Some of the website will require you to email the information, while others simply have a form to fill out and wait for approval. It may seem a bit tedious, but if you turn on auto fill through your browser, youll find it easier to fill out a lot of forms in little time. Remember, a permanent link from a respected authority is a powerful thing!

Day 3: Get Froogled (http://www.froogle.com)

If you sell a service or information product, its time to try out Googles newest feature: Froogle. Froogle allows you to upload images, product descriptions, and physical store information to its search engine within 24 hours. And remember, as a Google product, your website unofficially has a chance of increased ratings - after all, Google googles Fro ogle! (say that ten times fast!)

How to Do It:

You can find all of the step-by-step information on using Froogle at its respective homepage.

If you dont sell specific items, however, Google isnt going to approve your listing. If youre a service provider, you MAY be allowed to create listings. For example, you cant list vague graphic design services but you may be allowed to use a logo design package. You may also be able to publish a report or eBook and market it alongside its print competition.

If Google doesnt accept your product feed, it may be worth it to open up an eBay store. Ebay stores are automatically added to Googles feeds, and although they cost a little extra money a month, it may be worth it considering the sheer numbers of searches Froogle is already claiming.

Once youve put these powerful tools into motion, keep a eye on your rankings and your website statistics to see whats working and what isnt. Take a breath before you get back to your enormous to-do list. Congratulate yourself for being ahead of the game. After all, up to 70 percent of small businesses are still without a web presence. Take some pride in building your business in a global market.

And get back to your weekend, instead of your work. :- )
