<p>Are you having trouble building traffic to your sites. Everyone online is trying to figure out Search Engine Optimization so they can build more traffic! Understanding SEO is necessary if you are going to get anywhere online!</p>
<p>Are we not all doing keyword research and, of course, we are all trying to use the correct page structure. So how do you really know what works? Many have said that it is nothing but a big guess. Maybe, maybe not!</p>
<p>How many blogs or websites have you been to where someone is spouting-off that you must do or that, if you want to get traffic to your site. How many differing opinions are there? Does this confuse you?</p>
<p>WordPress is touted as being SEO friendly right out-of-the-box, but there is debate as to which theme is best. Still, more ambiguity into the mix. How do you know?</p>
<p>After gathering as much information as possible, and after trying many different approaches, I believe there is a way to crack the SEO code.</p>
<p>Software for Search Engine Optimization! You got it right &#8211; <span style="font-weight: bold">SEO Software</span>!</p>
<p>Most people realize that on-page use of keywords, meta-descriptions, titles, headings, and other tags is crucial for SEO. These elements inform the search engines of the theme or idea behind your site. This is basic stuff. </p>
<p>In many ways, the importance of your website or blog is judged by how many other sites link to you. In effect, every link pointing to yours is a vote of trust and confidence. Links to your site determine authority about your topic.</p>
<p>There is software for every aspect of SEO. If you search hard enough you can even find some for free. However, if you are serious about building an internet presence for your business or you are trying to earn money online, It may be a good idea to buy the software. </p>
<p>Having a good set of <span style="font-style: italic">SEO Software</span> Tools can really help you optimize your efforts to build traffic to your sites. It can take the guesswork out and inject some certainty. You should know every factor that effects your ranking in the engines so you can take the appropriate steps to make more money online.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style='font-style:italic;' class='byline'>by Trevor Weir</div>
<p>The correct tools are make or break in the search for search optimization processes that  bring more traffic.</p>
<p>Using the correct  tools is very crucial.</p>
<p>A great place to start is with keyword seo tools.. Another good tool sorry not free is Market Samurai, which does a lot more than just keyword research.</p>
<p><div id="attachment_3343" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 146px"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/seotips.jpg"><img src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/seotips.jpg" alt="Two Great Seo Tips that we are betting that you didn&#039;t Know" title="Two Great Seo Tips that we are betting that you didn&#039;t Know" width="136" height="136" class="size-full wp-image-3343" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Two Great Seo Tips that we are betting that you didn't Know</p></div>If you don&#8217;t mind a small monthly fee, Nichbot is an excellent choice. The venerable, Word tracker is also very popular, also requiring a subscription payment. You might want to read a few reviews on these different keyword tools .</p>
<p>Another tool that might be worth your time is RSS feed submission software. Blogs already have RSS feeds, but its a pretty good bet that your wonderful html site might not. But this is not a problem as you can easily add an RSS feed to nearly any online site &#8212; this is something that few marketers know, which means you will be ahead of the game!</p>
<p>By submitting your RSS feed to different directories, you will be getting more exposure and more links back to your website.</p>
<p>Social bookmarking tools have also been popular for a couple of years now. However,  &#8220;their effectiveness has declined a lot&#8221;, in many SEO expert&#8217;s opinions but not in mine and I have the proof.</p>
<p>The above text points specifically about or at Social bookmarking links and not the automated bookmarking tools. Some tools have or leave identifying marks in their work that are a easily read signals to the technical guys that play with the google search algorithms.</p>
<p>There is significantly more to seo tools, so don&#8217;t stop with this article. </p>
<p>Remember that rewards rarely come fast in this area &#8211; so be persistent!</p>
<p>Tired of reading stuff that you knew already, ha ha. If you are in expert in this field, i thought so.</p>
<p><strong>Now for what the promised 2 TIPS that YOU DIDN&#8217;T KNOW</strong></p>
<p>Google Analytic numbers are wrong.<br />
Google knows they are wrong, in fact several years ago when Google purchased urchin, it was discussed that people turning off cookies could adversely affect the results of non-local analytics like google analytics.</p>
<p>So if google analytics is incorrect, how does one find out what truly the unique visitors are and what their patterns are like? Well, all major http servers like apache and IIS have logs. These logs will be accurate and will have far more accurate information than Google analytics.</p>
<p>Use your logs for analytics and don&#8217;t trust external 3rd parties. </p>
<p>How far wrong can third party counters be?<br />
How about, in extreme cases as much as a shocking 3-400%</p>
<p>Ha ha, Ok, I know you didn&#8217;t know that !<br />
The sad thing is that alexa and other sources that we use for competitive analysis can also be off significantly though probably not as much as 300%.</p>
<p>How fast is your website?<br />
The amount of traffic that google sends to your site may in the near future be determined in part by the speed with which your website can satisfy user requests. A very slow website, can&#8217;t handle tens of thousands of users daily, so even if its optimized properly, has backlinks that number in the tens of thousands why should google send visitors to such a site?</p>
<p>Ha ha, bet, in the past, you hadn&#8217;t thought of that one either &#8212; but Google has. Ok, thats number 2. Over and out.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style='font-style:italic;' class='byline'>by Rich Gaspardo, Rocky Donsmith, Chuck Smacks, Rick Gaspard</div>
<p>You can save time and money by following this simple article on a very powerful keyword strategy that brings your buyers to the table instead of lookers. You will never again waste your time searching for keywords or spend unnecessary money on useless keywords after reading this article. </p>
<p>Question: How much longer can you keep wasting valuable time and money on useless keywords?</p>
<p>Most only last until the money runs out. Then their website disappears along with the advertisement. </p>
<p>Effective keywords are the key to selling most any product and also the key to getting your website planted into a position that is glued to your keywords. If you don&#8217;t pick and place them wisely it could cost you thousands in trial and error. </p>
<p>Continue reading all of this article, you need to know this.</p>
<p>Before you even start thinking about keywords, you must first put yourself into the position of the buyer. The buyer will have questions and will be looking for answers to his questions or solutions to his problems.</p>
<p>For instance, if you are selling a product that produces income for the buyer.</p>
<p>Now think of questions the buyer may have when he is searching for a way to make money. 99% of the time the buyer is going to type questions into the search engine looking for a solution to his problem rather than a specific keyword. So if the buyer is looking for a way to make money he may type:</p>
<p>How to make money from home</p>
<p>How to make money at home</p>
<p>What is the easiest way to make money from home </p>
<p>Easiest way to make money at home</p>
<p>How to start a business at home</p>
<p>There are many more questions, just keep thinking&#8230;</p>
<p>All of these questions are related to how the buyer can make more money. These questions are the long tail keywords you should be inserting into your advertisement and web pages.</p>
<p>Long tail keywords, are a very powerful selling feature.</p>
<p>This is why. Questions are what most people type into search engines. Hardly ever do they type &#8220;make money&#8221; or just &#8220;money&#8221;. They are seeking answers and if you can provide them, they will buy from you.</p>
<p>Keep Reading, You Must Do This</p>
<p>Create multiple Ads that use all of the long tail keywords. They will improve your position in the search engines. Write many of them with different meanings but using the long tail keywords chosen.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t Stop Now, Your Not Done!</p>
<p>This step is very important. Take these same keywords and include them in the body text on your landing page. This is very important and has a lot to do with your Lead Page or Landing Page or Squeeze Page ranking and or placement in the search engines.  </p>
<p>Don&#8217;t just add these keywords to your page. They need to make sense. Make them sell to your prospect. He has a problem, give him the correct answer with these long tail keywords. Remember, you want to keep the buyer thinking and focused on his problem. You want the buyer to realize you have his answer.  </p>
<p>These techniques are only a small part of marketing. There are many more powerful techniques coming.</p>
<p>I have been very blessed to communicate with many experts in marketing that reveal many techniques most wont tell you. These experts have completely turned my life around and will turn yours around also. </p>
<p>To find out more about these very powerful companies visit my website today! You need to know the truth about marketing and how to be very effective doing it. Or you will lose the keyword battle!</p>

<h2>Reciprocal Links &#8211; Do They Hurt ?</h2>
<p>The idea that links from other sites to your own, actually aid your site, is a logical one. But can backlinks hurt or harm your ranking?</p>
<p>Most of us seo professionals keenly know what this term means, but for the less geeky it simply means getting links from other sites to your own.</p>
<p>When this whole thing started, this was done by exchanging links between sites, and this was acceptable for a while but the search engines soon began to devalue these reciprocal efforts because too many of the reciprocal links were contrived and not natural.</p>
<div id="attachment_1131" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 270px"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/free-affiliate-marketing-stuff/more-amazing-places-to-get-one-way-links-from/"><img class="size-full wp-image-1131" title="link-baiting-02" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/link-baiting-02.jpg" alt="" width="260" height="249" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Link baiting for seo</p></div>
<p>The word &#8220;Spam&#8221; is known by some as that cheap meat in a can, but in internet lingo it is also known as the process whereby a few tech savvy individuals attempt to gain unfair advantage by flooding areas of the internet with their own commercial resource.</p>
<h2>Unsolicited Comments</h2>
<p>As an example, some marketers send out unsolicited blog comments to thousands of open blogs in an attempt to gain back links. Some made hundreds of real but content-less webpages/sites with links back to their own &#8211; not the phrase &#8220;their own&#8221; &#8211; commercial products &#8211; hence the need for objective PageRank and PageTrust.</p>
<p>In those early days, the search engines were not looking at these items such as which reciprocal links were owned by the same organization or which chain of anchored links were with the same ISP. In order to stop spammers, this information is considered carefully used by the search engines as it is rather important for determining exactly who the spammers are.</p>
<p>It is said that successful <a href="http://trevorweir.com/free-affiliate-marketing-stuff/more-amazing-places-to-get-one-way-links-from/">backlinking</a> depends very heavily on the keywords one chooses &#8211; traditionally, this has been where most linking efforts have failed.</p>
<p>Why? We can&#8217;t specifically tell others to use such and such an anchor text in their link to us. And in direct contradiction to what you might be reading around the net, therein lies a big part of the problem, right?</p>
<h2>Long Tail What ?</h2>
<p>Also, since as a casual reader, you are not likely to be an expert on long tail  keywords, you are going to most logically try to pick the keywords having the most traffic. Is this a mistake? A brand new online entity, even after being indexed by  Yahoo or most search engines, typically has no chance at ranking on its chosen keywords for many months if not years.</p>
<p>Ergo, have we looked at a potentially time wasting effort here?</p>
<p>The potential problems don&#8217;t stop there. Initially a new html or htm page has a Google Rank of N/A. Then after its indexed, typically 0 where Zero is not good and 10 is the best.</p>
<div id="attachment_3858" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/linkbuilding.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-3858" title="Reciprocal Linking" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/linkbuilding-300x225.jpg" alt="Reciprocal Linking" width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Reciprocal Linking</p></div>
<p>Although some may argue this while a new page with N/A or O as its rank can have a freshness quotient that can help it positively, in most search engines, its zero which is evidence of lack of backlinks will assuredly work negatively against it.</p>
<p>Exceptions abound however and if the newly created page is sitting on a very popular web2.0 social network property like squidoo or craigslist, bebo or scribd to name a few then it won&#8217;t be penalized as much just because its current pagerank or credibility level appears to be a zero.</p>
<p>And as some will be quick to point out, it is thought that new pages on foundation sites such as those with a PageRank of 5 or above, inherently acquire some of the PageRank or PageTrust of the site that they sit on.</p>
<h2>So Now What?</h2>
<p>Technical babble &#8211; the question really is &#8211; What really, does one do ?</p>
<p>Google&#8217;s time worn advice, go back to fundamentals, create good  content and  be ( hilariously ?) innovative. They would recommend strongly that we even create &#8220;link-bait&#8221; that will cause others to want to link to you.And that&#8217;s inherently a great idea if you have any idea what this link-bait thing means. Ignoring Google&#8217;s advice is always done at your own peril, however I urge you to examine the issues involved in creating link-bait more deeply.</p>
<p>Calculate whether you really have the 8-9 months that it takes to consistently create new articles almost daily, and to put out such a ferocious amount of intensely likable content in one spot that would cause people to consistently put a link to that page from their own &#8211; If the answer is no then you understand why most of us will never ever intentionally create link-bait.</p>
<p>There has to be ways around this. What should one do?</p>
<p>Look around this blog, there are myriad articles on <a href="http://trevorweir.com/free-affiliate-marketing-stuff/more-amazing-places-to-get-one-way-links-from/">link-bait</a> and <a href="http://trevorweir.com/free-affiliate-marketing-stuff/">seo tools</a>.</p>

<p>I hate SEO companies. Below is my list of the things I hate most about them. I know hate is a strong word, but in this case it is appropriate. My distain for SEO websites is born from hours, days, and weeks of searching for consistent SEO information. You may relate to a few of my top 10 list. If you don&#8217;t, let it serve as a warning for what you will discover when you happily go looking for a top rated SEO company.</p>
<p>10. Everybody is an &#8220;expert!&#8221; What a load. I imagine most &#8220;experts&#8221; are living in their parents basements, hitting the bong every hour or so.</p>
<p>9. Getting free information will cost me an arm and a leg. Why is it that SEO service fees are hidden? That scares me dude. Then, when I order it, it becomes an invitation to repeatedly suck my bank dry?</p>
<p>8. The websites are so f-ing sterile! The websites say &#8220;Hey, we are just like every other SEO company with a white site!&#8221; Good luck trying to tell the difference between true SEO and flim flam SEO.</p>
<p>7. Everything I buy will &#8220;super charge&#8221; my profits! Really?! That&#8217;s great. because I was wondering how I was going to unload my collection of plastic buzzard beaks. How much traffic will I need to super charge my profits?</p>
<p>6. Everybody has a key to &#8220;the back door&#8221; of Google or Yahoo. Right. The only people with back door keys to Google and Yahoo are Google and Yahoo, and they don&#8217;t need them.</p>
<p>5. Scary and excessive &#8220;black hat SEO&#8221; warnings. You can stop reading endless pages about this drivel.  Black hat equals spam of any kind to get ahead with SEO. Here is your diploma, now move on.</p>
<p>4. Every site is offering a &#8220;revolutionary new system to&#8230;&#8221;. All of my money problems will disappear in 48 hours, and I will be on the high road to &#8220;financial freedom&#8221; instantly. In truth, Earning a living from a website takes hard work, and focus everyday to make really big money. You will also need to own some professional and analytical SEO tools that make your SEO life easier. </p>
<p>3. I really must attend some high dollar conference. Why? So I can sit and listen to an extended SEO product&#8217;s sales pitch? Why would I pay money to be asked to pay more money?</p>
<p>2. The arrogance is laughable.  I don&#8217;t need another sizzling sales pitch about &#8220;SEO secrets&#8221; from an SEO &#8216;guru&#8217; that just graduated high school last week. I&#8217;d rather remain ignorantly blissful, with my wallet in tact.</p>
<p>1. Unproven websites can hit page one of a search engine, while high quality websites with integrity are outshined by shady SEO trickery? Search engines should optimize for legitimacy and integrity instead flash trickery. Sorry, I can&#8217;t make this one funny.</p>
<p>CoolSEOMarketingDirectory.com is a new breed of do-it-yourself SEO website. The SEO articles are all out in the open, free, with no hard selling, and virtually no internal services to buy. The products promoted are a collection of the best the entire web has to offer. It is a black website that probably chases away half its audience. I say good.

<p>If you want to define SEO in the minimum possible words, SEO is about the design strategies whether on page or of page that&#8217;ll help you optimize your webpage for the search engines. It involves tweaking your website in such a manner to get a priority in search engine results with the ultimate goal of bringing more people to your website </p>
<p>There are a lot of free SEO tools available on the web which will help you attain a better rank on the Google Page Rank system. You just need to understand a little bit about how they work and can tweak your webpage in such a manner so that more and more people visit your webpage. </p>
<p>Saturation checkers for search engines can be a vital tool for building a website. It is very easy to use and can give you a lot of the information you need in regards to SEO. Essentially it will notify you of which pages on your site actually appear on search engines and which do not. This will show you the exact pages that you need to update in order to make them more relevant.</p>
<p>Another utility is the search engine spider simulator. It will display how a search engine will view your webpage and displays the hyperlinks that the search engine will use. It will surely help you learn the fine details of SEO making you a better webmaster.</p>
<p>Back-link builders are another tool you should learn about and take advantage of. This tool will give you information and allow you to create links that will lead to your webpage. The number of back-links that you use is not nearly as important as the quality of these links. So once you build them you should use a back-link anchor text analysis to check how well these links are working. The effective use of back-links can make a drastic difference on your search engine ranking and you need to take advantage of this tool appropriately.</p>
<p>Keywords have become the backbone for SEO and if you want to achieve success you should take advantage of keyword research tools and build and adjust your website so that it contains as many relevant keywords as possible. Google has an excellent keyword tool where you can easily see the most searched words and find alternative keywords for certain popular website topics.</p>

<p>SEO is a process of choosing the most advantageous targeted keyword phrases associated your site and ensuring that this ranks your site extremely in search engines so that when someone searches for specific phrases it delivers your site on tops.</p>
<p> It basically involves fine tuning the content of your site along with the HTML and Meta tags and also involves appropriate link building process. The most popular search engines are Google, Yahoo, MSN Search, AOL and Ask Jeeves. Search engines keep their methods and ranking algorithms secret, to get credit for finding the most valuable search-results and to deter spam pages from clogging those results. </p>
<p>A search engine may use 100s of factors while ranking the listings where the factors themselves and the weight each carries may change continuously. Algorithms can differ so widely that a webpage that ranks #1 in a particular search engine could rank #200 in another search engine. Fresh sites need not be &#8220;submitted&#8221; to search engines to be listed.</p>
<p>A plain link from a well grounded site will get the search engines to visit the new web site and start to spider its contents. It can take a a couple of days to even weeks from the referring of a link from such a grounded site for all the main search engine spiders to start visiting and indexing the new web site.</p>
<p>If you are not able to explore and decide keywords and work on your own search engine ranking, you may prefer to hire someone to work with you on these issues.</p>
<p>Search engine marketing (SEM) and marketing companies, will look at the plan for your web site and make suggestions to increase your search engine ranking and site traffic. If you like, they will also cater ongoing consultation and reporting to monitor your site and make recommendations for editing and improvements to keep your web site traffic flow and your search engine ranking high. </p>
<p>Usually your SEO experts work with your web designer to establish an integrated plan right away so that all aspects of design are considered simultaneously.</p>

<p>Getting an improved search engine placement will greatly increase the amount of targeted traffic and monetary profit you receive. It is not hard to improve such a ranking, provided that you comprehend how the rankings work. Search engines are the main way that websites get traffic, and 60percent of that traffic comes from Google. </p>
<p>It is important that you understand how a search engine will find and present information to your potential customers if you want to increase your rating. This can be done one of two ways: either through robots, or through crawlers (also called spiders) that are more common.</p>
<p>Search engines utilize the spiders to index the websites. The spider indexes your sight by searching your pages after you submit your site. The spiders function by reading the content of your site, meta tags, and links on your pages. Your data will be indexed in a certain spot, and that is where the spider will bring them to. Any pages you link to will be indexed, as well. Some spiders only index a limited number of pages, so that could be a problem if you have site with hundreds of pages. </p>
<p>The spider does return frequently back to your site to see if there has been any updates or changes. The search engine moderators determine how frequently these returns happen. As a book would have a table of contents, content, and references, so does a spider have similar, with meta tags, content, and links. It is not uncommon for some spiders to have the ability to index over a million pages a day, and examples include Excite, Lycos, Alta Vista, and Google.</p>
<p>To get an improved search engine placement, whenever someone types in keyword into the search engine, the search engine actually finds the information that is closest to what the searcher is typing in their internal index. Since the search engines are not actually searching the Web, but rather the index, if a person types in &#8220;buy management book,&#8221; and your website has that as a keyword according to the index, then your page will be in the first page of results. Depending on which search algorithm you use, you will come up with a different ranking on the different sites. </p>
<p>Another tip is to take note of your frequency and location of your keywords on your web page. Most people keep their keyword density around three to seven percent else it will be considered as keyword stuffing or spamdexing. </p>
<p>Another thing that search engines analyze are how the links form and what the linked pages are about. Pages which are linked and have a greater degree in relation will result in improved search engine rankings. You can help your website get higher search engine placement if you understand the way that the search engine works, and use those tools to your advantage.</p>
