The Adsense Concept

November 22, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment 

So what is Adsense and what can it do for me?
Adsense (and other similar advertising solutions from search engines such as Yahoo and MSN) are regarded as being the new method for passive online money making. Adsense provides a way for people with websites of all types and sizes to put up and display relevant Google ads on the content pages of their sites and hence earn money.
Unlike link exchanges and rotating banners, Google Adsense ads relates to what your visitors came to your site to read about each advert that is displayed is specifically tailored to the keyword content of the specific page. This obviously means that you now have a way to improve your sites page content and potentially make some money.
Quite simply Google Adsense gives you the ability to earn advertising revenue from every single page on your website with a minimal investment of your time!
In addition to providing both text and image based adverts (known as ‘Adsense for content’), Adsense has two additional features that you can integrate into your web pages to provide your site visitors with more opportunities to earn you money ‘Adsense for Search’ and ‘Referrals’.
Adsense for Content
Probably the most popular Adsense product, ‘Adsense for Content’ displays ads that are targeted to your sites unique content. Adverts take the form of an Ad Unit, which contains either text ads, image ads or both and Link Units where each link unit displays a list of topics that are relevant to your page.
For a full visual list of Adsense advert styles visit: https://www.google.co.uk/adsense/adformats
So what kind of adverts get displayed on your site? As mentioned before, that’s what sets Adsense apart from the competition you don’t have to decide, Google does it for you!
Adsense always delivers relevant ads that are precisely targeted to each specific page. For example if you had a site dedicated to your pet dog, Google will send you ads for that site or specific page that relate to pet food, dog collars and other dog related products and services.
Adsense for Search
Integrating a Google Search box onto your site not only allows your visitors to search your website but it also provides a quick and easy search tool for surfing the web. As with ‘Adsense for Content the search results produced by your on site search box contain adverts relating to that specific search. When an advert gets click it earns you some more money. In effect and in my opinion, it’s a poor mans site search tool which has the added benefit of earning you some additional revenue.
Referrals
As with many large online organisations and business, promotion is an excellent method of getting new customers and visitors. Google is no exception and through Adsense you can help promote Google whilst also earning some cash.
The referrals section of Adsense gives you the ability to actively promote (on your website or web page) the Google Adsense, Google Adwords, Firefox plus Google Toolbar, Google Pack and/or Picasa (Photo organisation software). In much the same way as Adsense Content, every time a referral link is clicked on your site it earns you some more money.
What you really need to know…
Unlike other banner and link related websites, Google has no strict criteria for acceptance into the Adsense program, and Adsense doesn’t require your site to have a minimum traffic requirement. The only criteria that you must stick to is their strict standard of ‘acceptable content’ requirements which basically means read their terms and conditions before you sign up. Failure of their guidelines would simply mean you’d lose your Adsense account and any raised revenue within it.
Check out www.google.com/adsense/faq for more detailed information.
In the next article I’ll be looking in more detail at ‘Adsense for content’, answering the questions, What can Adsense do for me? What kind of adverts will appear on my site and How do I get started?

Content is Just as Important on Social Media Profiles as it is on Blogs

November 20, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment 

With social media being the new phenomenon online today it would be ludicrous for any internet marketer to ignore it when it comes to formulating a strategy for an internet marketing campaign. As with most marketing promotions your success or failure is usually determined by your approach. The most important part of a successful socialization plan when it comes to MySpace and Facebook, for example, is the content on your profile page.
Content drives traffic which drives sales when it comes to your Blog as well as your social media profile page. The richer and more varied the content the more people it will attract and the faster word will spread about your page and what it has to offer. Try to make it entertaining in terms of what’s available for visitors to interact with and adding a touch of humor helps because everyone likes to laugh.
For interactivity you could have your favorite music highlighted for them to click on and sample. You could add a music video or two as well as some comedy clips or maybe implement a joke of the day feature. One important factor not to ignore is your own personal story. The objective of these sites, after all, is to meet and get to know people, and most everyone likes reading or hearing about someone else’s life experience.
This doesn’t mean you have to reveal all of the sordid details but try to convey your likes and dislikes in your own style. Don’t try to be someone you’re not. People want to get to know the real you. Also try to make your profile informative. Everyone has an expertise in some area, so share this knowledge with your guests and before you know it you’ll have more online friends than you know what to do with.
If you keep giving people what they want they’ll keep coming back for more and the best way to do this is to write about what you know and what you are comfortable with. Pictures are also a great way to attract visitors. You can demonstrate some of your interests through photographs of some of your favorite activities. Pictures also add a more personal element to the page giving the viewer a better chance to get to know you and appreciate what you do.
If you’re an avid reader, for example, you could possibly start a book of the month feature where you discuss or critique a particular book you may be reading. You could ask visitors, who are also readers, to leave comments and maybe start a book of the month club. With any relationship, be it online or in your day-to-day life, the important thing is to maintain contact. On any of these social media websites this means visiting on a regular basis to let people know what’s happening in your life. It also means updating your profile page on a regular basis.
Any Internet Marketer who can follow these simple steps should enjoy great success in the new Web 2.0 or Social Media Market not only professionally but also personally, and always remember the old adage “Content is King.”

Google vs Bing; Your Best SEO Bet

November 19, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment 

I got into search engine optimization when Yahoo was king and Google was a gleam in Larry Page’s eye so I’ve had a front row seat to all the big doings. And one thing I can tell you for certain is Microsoft just took off its kid gloves with the release of Bing and is looking for a shot at the reigning champ Google.

This article will show you how to hedge your bet with both contenders and come out a winner while these two Goliaths slug it out.

Round One:

First and foremost make sure you follow the one major rule that will apply to both engines; Content is King!

Although we don’t yet have a clear picture of how Bing will react to all situations we do know that, since it is being touted as the first decision engine, it will focus greatly on quality of content. That said, be ready to make your pages a little longer than you did when optimizing for MSN and be certain the copy reads well.

Round Two:

Great content is not enough. It has to be well written and natural sounding. Anything that sounds like it was written for a search bot will not make it into the top one hundred let alone the top ten.

Round Three:

Still dealing with on page content, you need to carefully consider how many times your keyword is mentioned and where it is found on the page text. Both search engines will not only look for your keywords but also the context in which they are found. It is no longer enough to simply have them sprinkled in the text randomly. Now the keywords need to actually flow in the context of the text as well. This is typically taken care of for you when writing naturally but is definitely worth the extra once over before posting the final page live.

Here is a little formula to help…

1. Use one main keyword and up to two supporting keywords per page.

2. Do not repeat the main keyword more than three times on a page.

3. Do not repeat the supporting keywords more than twice each per page.

4. Try to have at least five hundred words per page.

5. Try to place your main keyword at the beginning, middle and end of the page text while keeping the writing natural and flowing.

Round Four:

Get as many high quality inbound links as possible. You already know this but it bears repeating. Search engines today are about popularity of the individual page returns. Having inbound links from Google authority sites will be more important than ever because any other search engine trying to trump Google will also be checking these stats as well as adding a few of their own.

That said, getting links from just the Google authority sites is not enough. You also want to get links from MSN’s top picks (which are now Bing’s top picks.)

Round Five:

To really hedge your bet, get an early leg up on your competition by becoming proficient in proven SEO software with a good track record on both Google and MSN (The tool at http://www.SEOeliteWeb.com has proven a good pick over the years for its ability to help develop SEO friendly content and locate the most beneficial link partners but there.)

And finally, look for domains for sale that are already ranked well on MSN. This could be the diamond in the rough opportunity of a lifetime for your online business.

By following these simple tips you can outdo ninety nine percent of your competition trying to share in the rewards offered by Google and Bing going head to head.

Chpater 3 – The Important Relationship Between AdSense and AdWords

November 18, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment

Before continuing further in the AdSense discussion it is important to understand the relationship between Goodle AdSense and Google AdWords. When it comes to pay-per-click advertising AdWords is hands down the Internet leader.

AdWords are those text advertisements that appear down the right hand-side of a Google search page. The ads are directly related to the keywords you use in your Google search. Advertisers are assured that there advertisements are shown to individuals who already have an interest in their product. AdWords is an amazingly powerful and effective advertising platform on the Internet as businesses are able to advertise in a highly targeted manner.

For example, let’s assume you sell widgets. You can set up your AdWords campaign to only to be shown when people type the word “widgets” in the Google search form. Your ad is shown to a person who has some form of interest in widgets. If someone types in “cars” then your ad will not be shown.

Obviously Google wishes to make a profit from AdWords so when an individual clicks on one of these ads Google charges the advertiser for the click. There is no set charge, rather advertisers bid for keywords and ad position. The advantage to advertisers is that their money is not wasted on non-interested parties clicking on their ads. With the AdWords system Google has enabled small businesses to compete in the Internet marketplace without breaking the bank.

AdSense was a follow-up program to AdWords, allowing website owners to get a piece of the advertising pie. As an extension of AdWords, AdSense allows website owners to place AdWords ads on their web pages. The difference regarding which ads are displayed is not determined by search keywords, but rather by page content. As an AdSense member, Google gives you a piece of JavaScript to paste in the code of your web page. That’s it. This JavaScript enables Google to decide which ads are most appropriate to show on your web page and tracks ad performance as well.

Google’s advanced content recognition technology is so intuitive that it determines which country an Internet surfer is from, displaying ads accordingly. For example if your website sells widgets, Internet surfers in the USA would see advertisements from USA widget retailers and British Internet surfers would see advertisements from British widget retailers. When someone clicks on one these of ads from your website the advertiser is charged a fee and you receive a portion.

Google has established safeguards preventing website owners from clicking on their ads to generate income. They can determine if someone is committing fraud and will ban such individuals from AdSense forever. Participating in this fraudulent behavior is stealing and hurts the industry in general. When individuals are caught and banned it is a positive for the rest.

It is advised that you open an AdWords account in addition to your AdSense account. This will become clearer as we address future AdSense subjects. Like AdSense, AdWords is free to join.

This was a basic presentation of how AdSense and AdWords are related. It is important to study this relationship further to succeed in generating and maximizing revenue from AdSense. Many website owners simply join AdSense, insert the code, expecting the dollars to flow. When reality and expectation don’t meet, the website owner becomes disillusioned and abandons AdSense. Like most things in life, success takes work and perseverance. If you’re expecting quick money you need to look elsewhere. However, if you do your homework and grasp these fundamental concepts you’re on your way to doing well.

Search Engine Optimization For Ecommerce Stores – How Does That Work?

November 13, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment 

I was recently posed a question from a reader specific to ecommerce stores. The question was that since search engine ranking is so heavily contingent on a website’s content being relevantly optimized, how do online stores get high search engine rankings? Being that one of my first websites was an ecommerce store with general merchandise, and I spent several months myself stuck on this dilemma, I knew exactly why they were asking. Ecommerce sites such as that use the keywords for “shopping”, etc, but the majority of their pages contain item descriptions that aren’t relevant to the term “shopping”. Selling items from handbags to vacuum cleaners makes it hard to keep your content consistent and relevant to your search engine keywords, and it doesn’t help your ranking for a search engine to find irrelevant keywords between your website pages without a common theme. It’s a unique challenge for stores and shopping malls that don’t sell all the same types of items and contain an inconsistent keyword theme throughout their pages. Through my work I found that eCommerce stores can overcome these obstacles by taking these 10 steps:1. Use the same two to three keywords between all of your pages whether it’s a highly used keyword on that page or not, like “shopping”, “discount”, “on sale”…whatever your common store theme is, regardless of the item (we’ll use these three as examples for the purpose of this discussion, but you might feel that different keywords better describe your store as a whole). Optimize your main page content very heavily on these keywords with a description of your business and explanation of your website’s mission and theme. It will serve the purpose of driving search engine traffic to your front page, which should be very relevant to your front page keyword tags, as well as convincing shoppers that they want to shop there. The beginning of this text will also show up in your website’s description in some searches and could effect how many people click through to your site from your listing. Weave your keywords throughout the page, but more heavily in the top of the first paragraph.2. Categorize your store’s selections. Separate each item into a category such as “handbags”, “luggage”, “jewelry”, etc. rather than lumping them all together disorganized. Create as many separate categories as possible. If you only sell jewelry in your store (in which case “jewelry” is one of your primary website keywords), separate the items into categories such as “necklaces”, “earrings”, “bracelets”, etc. for example. Use these category names as the second group of keywords on your main page, right behind your primary keywords. Make sure there’s a navigation bar on your front page that links directly to each category by name, matching these keywords exactly in bold text links. 3. Tag your category pages with your primary home page keywords: “shopping”, “discount”, “on sale”, and then add the category name as your next keyword (”Jewelry” for example), followed by a few descriptive words for the items in that category, such as “bracelet”, “necklace”, “gold”, “diamond”. This methodized string of keywords provides connection and relevancy from your main page, through your category page, to your item pages, which might not have appeared relevant otherwise. 4. Add page descriptions on each of your category pages and include all of your page tags in your page content. For instance include a very brief summary of your front page website description (without copying text directly). This will allow visitors who landed directly on your category page to still get an understanding of your business and enables you to use your primary website’s keywords (”shopping”, “discount”, “on sale”) so that, primarily, it shows search engines direct relevance between your top page and each second level page. Then provide a description of the category itself and the items within the category, utilizing the rest of your page’s tags. This text will persuade visitors to shop on your site, in this category particularly, while convincing search engines your page content is relevant to your keywords and this second level page is directly relevant to third level pages as well as your top level page. 5. Tag your item pages with your primary website keywords (”shopping”, “discount”, and “on sale”), then your relevant category keyword (”Jewelry”), followed by additional descriptive keywords specific to that item, as if it’s a directory map.Include all of your keywords for each page in your content where it’s tagged, whenever it makes sense. So you have the “shopping” keyword tagged on all of your pages to make your whole store relevant to that very important keyword, now you need your item pages themselves (third level pages) to be relevant to the first level and second level pages. For instance, a page that describes a gold bracelet as explained in the simple rules above, might be categorized in “Jewelry” and tagged as “shopping”, “discount”, “on sale”, “jewelry”, “bracelet”, “gold”, “bangle”, and so on. Your description for that item might start with, “If you’re shopping for an exquisite addition to your jewelry collection, this gorgeous gold bangle bracelet is on sale at an incredible discount…” You get the idea… Make each page’s description meaningful, interesting, persuasive, and rich with keywords.6. Add as many (optimized!) pages as possible. Stores with the biggest catalogs, the most categories, and the most item pages have more of a presence on the internet, of course. As long as each category is accessible from the main page and each item is accessible from a top level category (your whole website only goes three links deep: main page, category page, item page), no links are broken, there’s a navigation bar on each page, and all the pages are optimized as described above, the more the better. The highest ranked online stores have thousands of well optimized product listings, however my ecommerce store reached a decent ranking with 300 item listings.7. Use “Alt Tags” for your images. This is text that will show to human visitors only if your image is unavailable, it makes your images searchable on the internet, and it is always seen by search engines as content. Use your keywords heavily in image alt tags to increase your page’s keyword usage, making your page content even more relevant to search engines without boring your shoppers. On a page where one of your keywords lacks very much presence and it would take away from the quality of your content to squeeze it into the text anymore, include that word again in an image “alt tag” instead.8. Use relevant cross-reference links between pages within your site. If you have the capability to provide cross-references from one item to other relevant items in your catalog, do that! Search engines love cross references. You’ve already shown the search engine through use of keywords and page descriptions that your third level pages are relevant to your first and second level pages, and cross references between item pages show additional relevancy between third level pages as well. Under the image and description for a particular item, if you have a section that says, “…you might also be interested in…” with thumbnail descriptions that link to other relevant item pages of your site, it makes it easier for search engines to find relevancy between more of your pages, with a direct path for them to follow. It also helps convert visitors into paying customers by helping them find exactly what they’re looking for in fewer clicks. It’s all-around a great tool and worth the expense and effort. 9. Add a blog or allow comments and reviews. Each comment on your site is new relevant content for search engines to review. You can use a blog page for creating network contacts and free sales publicity. The added functionality also encourages visitors to utilize and then return to your site, potentially bookmarking a post for their own purpose, providing free viral marketing…the benefits are practically endless. 10. Think outside of the box. Always keep your eyes open for new ideas for relevantly linking your pages, providing additional relevant functionality to your pages, increasing your categories, and improving your content.

Top SEO tips and tricks

November 2, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment 

So then. You’ve set up your company. You’ve got it up and running. You’ve built a website and you’ve got it hosted online. But when you search for it on Google, you can’t see it anywhere! How can you make sure that people will find your site on the first few pages? Well, what you need is SEO.

First of all, you need to write some great content. It doesn’t matter how many people you get to view your website, or how well optimized your site is: if the content isn’t worth it, they won’t stick around. Make sure to include information about your business, and something to keep them interested. Similarly, you need to make sure that your content is unique. Review sites that have similar content to yours, and try to differentiate your site from theirs. If there aren’t a lot of websites with similar content to yours, you will find that your website becomes a lot more popular.

The next important step in search engine optimisation is finding keywords and keyword phrases for your pages. This is vital for SEO, so you should consider it carefully. Keywords are words that you want people to type into Google to find your website, so relate them to what your site is about. For example, keywords for DeepSpaceDesign could include “web design”, “graphic design”, and “SEO”. Choose carefully; your keywords should be popular search terms but not too popular. An extremely well-used search term will be very competitive so you will find it very difficult to get your site to page one of Google, but with a quite attractive search term you will find SEO much easier. A good strategy is to limit your keywords by area, e.g. “web design West Sussex”.

Once you have chosen your keywords, it’s time to use them in your site. Try to include them in your page content, and also try to optimize each page with separate keywords. Use a keyword in the URL for your page, in your domain name, and also in the title tag of your page.

Your page rank will increase if you have lots of links from other websites, so you should contact other sites and ask them to link to you. Ideally these should be sites that relate to your site, such as a link to DeepSpaceDesign from a paper company. You should also ensure that you get links from reputable sites. A link from a .gov or .edu website will be much more valuable than a standard backlink directory.

Follow these SEO tips and tricks and you will be on your way to the top of Google!
