Making Seo More Reasonable
Posted on 10. Sep, 2009 by admin in seo
For attaining higher rankingof the websites in the search engines the procedure of SEO is put into use. With the augmentation of the e-marketing the need for SEO has seen a great rise. The business of e-commerce and e-marketing has become so popular and further new companies are joining this field.
Search Engine Optimization is the process by which a website can be optimized in order to improve its organic or natural rankings on search engines. The need for SEO came up early after the boom in online marketing was witnessed. As a result of the increasing popularity of the internet marketing and e-commerce more and more companies are jumping on to the e-business bandwagon.
With the advancement in technology more and more companies are providing economical seo seeing the major amount of competition more and more companies are offering their services in the field of SEO. SEO provides major services to different kinds of organizations and companies those are connected to the e-commerce. With the rise of SEO, the companies having their online business are mostly benefited as they can choose which is better for them and which is more economical to them.
For providing rankings for a website the SEO services make use of special methods. For a website ranking is very important as someone who visits the search engine won’t go beyond first three search results and in some rare cases to some initial pages. Entirely depending as to what is the website all about the price can vary some can be costly and others can be cheaper. It is implicit that if the service is costlier then the budget will be more.
It depends on what position the company is holding as the SEO companies have their own pricing and with the assistance of the search engines we can configure the efficient SEO services. The main advantage of pursuing the SEO services is that it becomes easier for the website for the promotion and publicizing which is not very easy to handle on your own.
Search engines can be used to find out SEO companies that offer affordable SEO services. All SEO companies have their own pricing structure, based on their market reputation as well as the services or combination of services that they offer. The best part about partaking services from an affordable search engine optimization company is that it is very convenient for the website and provides valuable and much needed assistance in promoting and advertising the site, which is otherwise extremely difficult for the website to manage single handled.
SEO services are very beneficial for the websites. You can also observe the functioning of these companies and if you are not happy with the services you can always make another option. These companies save a major amount of time and capital.

is it good to buy and redirect 301 domain names for SEO purposes?
Posted on 09. Sep, 2009 by admin in seo
I found a directory with bunch of expired domain names – the directory page where those domain names are actually has PR = 3
my plan is to redirect them to my main domain
Is it good for seo or matters little?
Not if the search engines catch you. Than bad things will happen to your search ranking.
In my experience, It’s much more effective to simply blog (v6transition.com) about your site and to have a facebook (facebook.com) account for your site.
Towards a New Philosophy of SEO
Posted on 08. Sep, 2009 by admin in seo
The following overview of a common SEO campaign is not an
attempt to describe the processes in use by all SEO’s, and in
fact there are a handful of really good SEO firms out there.
Good SEO firms are generally identifiable by two common
elements: Longevity and Customer Loyalty Overview of a common
SEO Campaign:
II – On Page Optimization: • a) Add textual content that is
keyword rich – Embed pre-determined target keywords throughout
text according to the SEO’s notion of ideal keyword density and
usage. • b) Add Title and Meta Tags that are keyword rich -
Often this involves composing code that is extremely keyword
dense, which fortunately is no longer an effective technique to
manipulate rankings on most search engines. • c) Miscellaneous
other elements such as Anchor Texts, Alt Text, etc. are
manipulated to increase keyword density. II – Off Page
Optimization: • a) Link Building – Ideally this involves finding
related but non-competing web sites of high quality to exchange
links with. However automated ink spamming is a common practice
that is employed, which although initially effective, can result
in expulsion from search indexes. Furthermore link spamming
degrades the overall quality of the WWW. III – Adjustment: • a)
On a regular basis the various “optimized” elements are adjusted
in an attempt to find an ideal combination that will result in
top rankings for the target keywords. This is quite often a lot
of guesswork and wishful thinking. The Mission of this type of
campaign is to take an existing website, regardless of quality
and Make it Appear to be the Best. When such a campaign is
successful, the SEO has succeeded in reducing the quality of
search results for that keyword by positioning a web site that
does not deserve a top position. Furthermore link spamming
reduces the quality of the internet link graph by forging
unnatural connectivity families.
Overview of Proposed SEO Campaign:
I – Ground Up Solutions: • a) The construction of innovative,
high quality websites that are built according to concepts that
reflect knowledge of search engine technology. • b) Rejection of
existing websites as a standard with few exceptions. Offer
complete solutions of design and SEO to insure uncompromising
quality. II – New SEO Methodology: • a) Traditional SEO
techniques should be abandoned to pursue a true Search Engine
knowledgebase resulting from scientifically sound research. • b)
Abandon the concept of “tricking” search engines into ranking
web pages and focus on building websites of high enough quality
that they can rank well based upon their own merit. • c)
Citation development will still be an integral part of this
campaign however new systems, standards of quality and types of
citations are implemented and enforced such that the idea of
link building no longer accurately describes this process. A New
Philosophy for Search Engine Optimization The Mission of this
type of campaign is to build a highly optimized web site that Is
the Best. Websites will achieve top rankings for 2 reasons: 1.
They are constructed as comprehensive authorities within their
industry. 2. They are designed to make the most of their natural
strengths through an understanding of search technologies.

Seo Elite – A Review To Search Engine Optimization
Posted on 03. Sep, 2009 by admin in seo
A search engine optimization review using seo Elite Software:
It can be hard at times especially for a newbie learning the basics of search engine optimization. One of the worst mistakes that can be made is not thinking out the tasks ahead thoroughly. SEO Elite allows you to do all sorts of analyzing to determine if a keyword is worthy of trying to rank for in the major search engines. The other good tool that complements SEO Elite is Keyword Elite. These two tools alone have helped me excel from a page not being indexed to ranking in first position.
What is Search Engine Optimization (SEO):
SEO is a way of increasing the quantity of web site traffic from search engines through organic search results of queries that users enter into the search box. The earlier a web page is shown in the search results can normally lead towards higher rankings of a keyword and more visits to the page are a result. SEO Elite can be one way to achieve fast indexing of a web page.
How to achieve high ranking keywords:
The “SEO Elite” tool is one of many ways to achieve high ranking, this tool will allow you to analyze your competitors onpage and offpage optimization in various ways. Another great tool is Keyword Elite which not only allows you to create a extensive list of thousands of keywords in minutes, but lets you know exactly how easy it is to optimize a keyword, which keywords pay the most – for Adsense Publishers and so much more.
High Alexa ranked web sites is another huge factor in gaining the high ranking you desire as these create a trust factor which is passed down to the link contained within the document. Page Rank is another factor, it’s been said that the Page Rank of a document doesn’t really help in your keyword ranking, but really this is another trust factor that is assigned to a page in a form of importance. The more important and relevant a page is, the higher the page rank is assigned to it. A Page Rank can also be achieved by having a web site or page link coming off a high PR page, approximately a share of 85% of this value is passed down to the links on that page. The fewer links on this page the more of the page rank is shared to the destination url.
Backlinks is one of the most important aspects of gaining high keyword ranking. The more you have pointing to a page the higher you will rank. The technique used is to use anchor text links where the text link will be your keyword and or phrase you are hoping to rank for. It’s important not to use the same anchor text links all the time and make variations of this text to make it look more like a natural way a person would use. Using too many of the same links just doesn’t look natural.
SEO Elite will help you find link partners through various sources. It also allows you to find relevant web sites that you can ask for back links. Or find one way back links or two way – reciprocal links from partners from Link Directories, another good way to achieve fast indexing of a page.
Another important factor to high keyword ranking is taking close attention to the title of the page that you wish to get a one way back link – the most powerful of all links. Search engines work off relevancy and a trust factor. When you’re looking for back links, try to find web site pages that contain the phrase or keyword you want to achieve highly searched ranked positions. Taking your time working out a plan using SEO Elite and Keyword Elite will make the difference between ranking highly and not at all.

what are the best social bookmarking sites for use with SEO for a technology company?
Posted on 03. Sep, 2009 by admin in seo
We are working on a SEO campaign to create inbound links to our site. What are the best sites like Digg and Slashdot to use for a technology company website?
Submit to Digg and Delicious for more traffic, however Searchles and many of the other 2nd tier social networks save everything and get it all indexed in Google and Yahoo! so there is much more value to improve seo rankings from the 2nd tier social networks.
Bad SEOs? What about Bad SEO Clients?
Posted on 01. Sep, 2009 by admin in seo
You hear all the time about bad SEOs. Bad SEOs are offering worthless services, failing to deliver on their internet marketing promises, polluting the search engine results—well, a lot of bad things. But how much ever gets said about bad SEOs’ spiritual counterparts: bad SEO clients?
As an SEO, I can see things from the other side of the table. You see, despite trying hard to make it clear I’m a good, ethical, results-oriented, smarter marketing, white-hat SEO, I have gotten no end of inquiries from bad prospective SEO clients. Sure, no one who gets cheated is ever entirely to blame, and some cheated businesses are entirely blameless. But the bad SEOs would have too small a market to stay in business if it weren’t for almost-as-bad clients.
Shades of Bad SEO Clients
First, let me make clear what I mean by “bad” SEOs. Bad seos are bad because they either do unethical things to get e-marketing results, or because they consistently fail to deliver results. A good SEO delivers results and does it without trampling over other people’s rights (like submitting automated comments to their websites or trying to get good sites de-indexed).
A bad SEO client, in turn, is someone who will only be satisfied (albeit temporarily) with a bad SEO. Because they refuse to consider ethical web consultants or smarter marketing strategies, they are creating markets for the e-marketing charlatans and black-hats. There are two basic types of bad SEO clients: crooks and fool–oops, I mean, ethically challenged and judgmentally-challenged.
Ethically-Challenged SEO Clients
I haven’t gotten so many inquiries asking for out-and-out unethical services. Still, I’ve been asked about blog-sp@mming software and other shady internet marketing tactics a couple times. A colleague shared this gem with me: “Have you thought about just scanning a book from the library and using it for web content? Or is that too high-risk?” (Seriously, someone asked him this.)
Of course, judging from the amount of comment sp@m and SEO-motivated hacking on the web, there is plenty of demand for this stuff.
Judgmentally-Challenged SEO Clients
A much larger group of bad SEO clients are simply those who insist on putting themselves in the way of fraud. Yes, that’s right: I’m blaming the victim. Someone who goes looking for a $5 gold watch can’t cry too long if the watch turns out to be fake or hot. With SEO, there are a few more nuances, but it’s the same essential idea.
The overwhelming majority of these judgmentally challenged souls are private individuals whose only business is the business-in-a-kit variety. Yet they are also sometimes representatives of actual successful companies. The real businesspeople tend to be quicker to let their misconceptions go (after all, they can afford the real SEO alternatives), but not always. Let’s look at some representative types of this group, straight out of my own inbox (note: these are inquiries from prospects, not actual clients).
1. Something-for-(Little More than)-Nothing Clients
Really, I tend to think these people should be in the ethically challenged group, but maybe that’s just the remnant of my work ethic making me be mean There are actually two kinds of these clients:
* The ambitious but cheap client: “I’d like to get to the top of Google for the keyword, ‘mortgage’ so I can turn over $100,000/month in revenue. I can spend up to $1,000.” * The Adsense-is-my-business-plan client: you wouldn’t believe the numbers of inquiries I get from people who only plan to make money off Adsense or other on-site advertising—they don’t even have a plan for getting repeat traffic, nor do they have content to synergize with the SEO effort. By buying promotional services, they would essentially be buying advertising in order to make money off advertising—you see where that could be a problem?
Another way of looking at it: why wouldn’t I just create a site myself and keep all the profit from my efforts? In fact, most SEOs do have their own project sites, which are often monetized by Adsense. The money we could otherwise get from Adsense is one very low baseline for pricing our services. Legitimate SEO clients are typically selling goods or services at a profit rate that works out to ten or more times what they could get from Adsense.
In addition to the greedy, I also see a few other kinds of less common, but still problematic prospective SEO clients:
2. SEO-Starry-Eyed Clients: “Search engine traffic is definitely the best way for me to get pet-sitting clients in my tiny Himalayan village.”3. The Little-Knowledge-Is-a-Dangerous-Thing Client: “Don’t tell me about keyword research, content, anchor text, or natural linking strategy, just get me the PageRank (or links, keyword density, or whatever the fad is).”4. Gullible-and-Not-Letting-Go Client: “I know of at least two services that will submit my site to thousands of search engines for $29.95. If you can’t do that, I’ll take my business elsewhere.”5. I-Will-Never-Trust-SEO-But-I’ll-Consider-It-Anyway Client: “No one can guarantee a good search engine ranking so this is all pointless—I’ll just go with that $29.95 search engine submission package someone just emailed me about. At least it’s cheap.”
In short, if you are going to find good SEO web consultants, you need: 1) realistic expectations; 2) a realistic budget; 3) solid information. Don’t expect something for nothing, do a little reading, and it’s much less likely you’ll fall victim to bad SEOs.

What are the advantages of black hat SEO?
Posted on 31. Aug, 2009 by admin in seo
Well, the basic principle of SEO is to generated visitors of one website, right? But it is so lamed to "click here" and "click that" using Social Bookmarking, is there a faster way to generate links using black hat SEO? i am so curious about it.
seo guy has a good point. My site is new and is on top 4 of google for the term "guaranteeing results from advertising" the site is http://www.netadvertisinggroup.com I used a long keyword phrase.
Use long keyword phrases for a new site and build them smaller as they go on. this is a 4 word phrase my next goal is the phrase "guaranteeing advertising results" wich is currently on the 4th page of google the next step will be two word phrases like ad agency
On "Black Hat" It works for a short time then leaves you in the gutter. Don’t use them because you can get banned. Also they tend not to create repeat business which is what make you money, bringing the consumer back.
SEO School Bus First Exam: Who Needs Links Anyway?
Posted on 31. Aug, 2009 by admin in seo
A little story to share with you for the Seo School Bus. I have a friend with a website that posts 5 days a week. I was reading his most recent post, when I wanted to check how many links he had coming into his website (it showed around 2400). I quickly sent him a text saying, “You have 2400 incoming links for your site”. He said, “How did you see that?”. Which brings me to a SEO tool that you should be using. SEO for Firefox, while a great resource for education, can help you learn SEO as you’re using it. If you’re not using FireFox this might give you a reason. I won’t than go into to much depth of how this tool works, (there are plenty out there) my suggestion would be to play around with it first.
First thing to look at will be the options of the tool where you will find what kind of info you want to know about a website. You can set any of the options to automatic, hide, or on-demand. You may hide one that I may have automatic, and you might ask: “Which ones do you have hidden, automatic or on-demand?” I don’t want to push my bias onto you, because then you won’t do any research on your own to understand why it’s important.
I’m now in the habit of right clicking on every website and using my “look up this page” option. I could spend hours looking at where websites are getting their links from, from looking at the press releases that have been written to directories they have submitted to. If you can get why they have that link and how its helping them you will be able to convert this into learning SEO techniques for your site. We will revisit this tool often and touch on various aspects of what the information can do for the Seo School Bus students.
The <a href=”http://www.seoschoolbus.com”>Seo School Bus</a> has and will have plenty of ways to learn SEO, but just like school you will have to do some homework: setting SEO goals. Feel free to e-mail me your goals and I will give you some of my recommendations.

SEO Consulting: What is It? Do you Need It?
Posted on 28. Aug, 2009 by admin in seo
SEO Consulting (SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization) is the current buzz occupation in the Internet Business today. The demand for SEO consulting firms or individuals (who are called seo Consultants) is driven by the reality of the Internet that there are literally billions of websites that have sprouted in cyberspace since the world wide web inception, with millions more entering everyday. While a large chunk of these websites are personal sites that the owner puts up for his own satisfaction, a rapidly increasing number of them have been put up for a commercial purpose.
The biggest challenge you will face as a business website owner (which any SEO consulting firm will tell you) is finding ways and means for many visitors to come and visit your site, thus increasing your chances of generating business. One way you can achieve this objective is to spend on traditional and/or on-line advertising and promotions to build brand awareness. While this is unarguably an effective strategy, not only is it quite expensive, it is also not targeted, i.e., it does not select the market that you are really interested in communicating to.
Fortunately, SEO consulting firms (or individuals) will tell you, there is a more practical and effective way to attract the right market to your Internet business website, which takes advantage of three Internet facts: (1) Most, if not all, Internet users go to cyberspace for INFORMATION; (2) In seeking information, the common first step for an Internet user to take is to go to a search engine website, enter the keywords for his search, and click on one of the recommended sites spewed out; and, (3) there are only a few popular search engines on the Internet that searchers go to (SEO consulting firms know the ones that really count and keep up with their algorithm).
To get targeted visitors, therefore, you need to find a way (either by yourself or through the expertise of an SEO consulting company) to get the popular search engines to list your website as close to the top of their list based on the most common search keywords entered by the searchers that refer to information that your website provides. Performing this “trick” successfully is what Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is all about.
In a nutshell, SEO is a set of strategies implemented on a website that, when “crawled through” by the search engine “spiderbot”, gets evaluated with a high relevance score so that it gets listed high in the results based on the keywords entered. Different SEO consulting groups apply different strategies to achieve this objective but will invariably use some of the strategies listed below:
a. Keyword Selection – In registering your site with the search engines, SEO consulting firms will choose the keywords that: (1) your website’s information is responsive to; and, (2) the user will most likely enter when he is searching for the information you have.
b. Meta tag Optimization – This is another common strategy used by SEO consulting firms. Meta tags are normally found in the remarks page of your HTML code. SEO consulting firms will embed as many of the responsive keywords here because the search engine “spiderbot” always “crawls” through them.
c. Content Optimization – SEO consulting firms will make sure that your website has a lot of information (either on the website itself or in the files that it hosts) that contains the relevant keywords.
d. Link Building – A SEO consulting team will use their resources and databases to build an arsenal of one way inbound links from relevant and content rich sites.
When do you know that you need the help of an SEO consulting firm or individual? Here are a few tips to help you decide:
• If you have experience in SEO, by all means do it yourself and save some money. If, however, you do not know where to start, it always makes sense to contract the services of an SEO consulting firm so that you do not have to go through the “hit and miss” ordeal.
• If you are not in a hurry and would like to let your website grow in popularity over time, then you can afford to “wing it” by first building your website, telling (or emailing) your friends to pay your site a visit and refer it to their friends. In case, however, time is critical for you, then an SEO consulting firm might be your best option.
• If you are running on a shoestring budget, then you really don’t have much of a choice but to optimize your website by yourself or seek financing if you are serious about making it. On the other hand, if your website has a well-thought of business plan with budget allocations for promotions, then your money on this aspect is well-spent if you opt to hire an SEO consulting firm to promote your website for you.
A final word of advice: If you decide to hire an SEO consulting firm or individual, choose carefully. While rates should be one of the criteria for SEO consulting firm selection, equally important should be experience and reputation. Do not be blinded by bargain and low priced offers that are too good to be true. If an SEO consulting firm practically gives away its service, you should be really wary. You could end up spending more than you bargained for in terms of damage control efforts, money, time, and lost opportunities if the SEO consulting firm you select is the wrong one.
