Google Traffic Report Card-Does Your Website Pass? Part 1 of 7
November 9, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
This is part 1 of a 7 part series that examines the 7 factors of
incoming links that Google considers when choosing a spot for
your website in it’s SERP’s.
Why incoming links? First because these are what Google places
the highest value on. But, all incoming links are NOT created
equal. This 7 part course looks at the kinds of links Google
values when “rating” your website in the SERP’s. Each type of
link discussed is important to your overall link strategy and
consequently your free traffic levels.
The first factor is of course the anchor text used in your
incoming links. The importance of the keywords used to link to
your website are more important to Google than the content that
is actually on your page. You can generally use anchor link text
with your keywords and not even have the keywords on the page
and still get a good ranking in Google for that term if enough
incoming links have that keyword pharse in them.
If you’ve heard of the phrase “Google Bombing” then you know
what I’m talking about. Basically it’s when a set of webmasters
or blog owners decide to get a page ranked for a certain term
and all leave links back to the selected site with the keyword
phrase that they want that page to rank for.
The most notorious example of this is the “bombing” done by
several blog owners to the George W Bush biograpby page. Several
bloggers left links to the page containing the keyword text
“miserable failure” and consequently this page turns up as the
number 1 result in Google for the term, even though the words
don’t appear anywhere on the page.
The “Google Bombing” was done by at most a few hundred links
with this link text pointing to the page. Though more links
would probably be necissary for a more competative term. Still,
it goes to show how important link text is to the rankings of a
page.
Google Bombing is nothing new. But what many people don’t
realize is that Google places more relevance on the anchor link
text that it finds when it first discovers a link to your
website. Each consequent link either adds value to that first
impression or subtracts from it.
Many times you can control which link google finds first just by
knowing where google goes regularly (like on a daily basis) and
effectively placing your link in it’s path. This is called
“baiting” the google bot to visit your website through this link.
Each link you place after this initial link should further show
google that their first impression (or the first keywords it
discovered that linked to your website) was and still is
correct. Each subsiquent link is a “vote” so to speak to
validate Google’s original impression of what your website is
about.
Placing that first link to be found by Google is only the first
step, but a very important one. Choose your anchor text keywords
carefully. Each incoming link you place after this one should
serve to validate this first impression. Part 2 will discuss the
appearance and disappearance of links over time and how they
effect your traffic and search engine placement.

Blogging Tips – How to Create a Blog That Attracts Thousands of Visitors!
October 24, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
Whether you want to use a blog to get your name out there as a writer or to promote a website when you are internet marketing, you need to read up on as many blogging tips as you can. Keep in mind though that it may well nigh be impossible for you to try and implement everything that you’ve read and learnt. When reading blogging tips, it is important to shortlist a few that you can use and build on those few first. Trying to do everything can leave you frazzled and overwhelmed and will take away from what can be an extremely enjoyable online experience.
Interestingly, blogging started off as an online diary and bloggers used this platform to express their opinions and reveal their emotions. Blog entries were almost always in the first person and bloggers did not read blogging tips about how or why they should mind their p’s and q’s. It did not matter what they said or who they offended.
However, that was then. Nowadays, blogging is increasingly being used more as an internet marketing strategy, which means it is used as a way to attract people and get them to buy a product or service. As such, it has become important to read as many blogging tips as you can so as to make sure you do not offend or drive away potential customers. If you are new to blogging, take it easy. Along with reading tips on blogging you may also want to read other successful blogs so you can pick up a few nifty ideas that you can use. Take time to also visit a few unsuccessful blogs as these will give you a pretty good idea of some of the things you should not do.
