How to promote your article in 10 minutes

We all know that “time is money” so we need to promote our articles as fast as possible.In this article I will present the fastest way to promote your fresh article in just 10 minutes.

  1. Share your article on Twitter . Twitter is one of the most powerfull social networking and microblogging where you can share tips or other informations with your followers. After each article posted I tweet it so my followers can read it immediatly.
  2. Share your article on Facebook . Facebook is less important than Twitter in my oppinion, but also is very important in getting traffic and loyal readers.You can connect with peoples from all over the world and you can share all kind of tips with those persons…
  3. Post your article on Digg.com ,Reddit.com ,Sphinn.com . Those are the most important social bookmarking sites that I know , maybe it’s a wrong idea but in my oppinion those sites are the most important. You can post you article on those social bookmarking sites and there your articles may be votted and you get get a lot of traffic.
  4. Comment on other blogs with smilar articles . Search on Google with the main keyword for your article and read the first 20-30 articles and comment them.You can even specify about your fresh article, but be carefull, don’t send SPAM comments .
  5. Promote your article on niched forums . Search for forums which are using the same niche as yours and promote your articles there.You can create a new thread where to present your article and indicate it as a usefull article.
  6. Search for social bookmarking sites that are using the same niched as yours. On the internet are hundreds of thousands of social bookmarking sites where you can post your articles, but you should try to find some good social bookmarking sites with the same niche as yours.For example,I’m using Sphinn.com because there are posts about :SEO,PPC,SEM,Social Media and others related to SEO and Social Media.

So , those are the most simple six steps for promoting your article in less than 10 minutes.After those simple steps you can start a link building campaign for your article for bringing it in first 10 search results.If your article it’s very important, you can send some press releases,but in my opinion this is not a nice way to promote your article ,dispite of increased efficiency

The Best SEO Tactics To Rank Your Website

When it comes to outmatching your competitors in your niche market, how are you going to get your website noticed? To bring you back to the basics, here are the best of the best in SEO tactics to rank your website higher on Google:

  1. Fresh content will always improve your rankings! Make it a priority to add new and relevant content to the pages of your website as often as possible. Even better, add a blog to your website that will continually add more pages for each blog entry. Google will notice!
  2. Be smart in your linking tactics. This means that any links on your website or links to your website should be using your keywords as anchor text. Instead of using something as simple as “click here”, you should be linking to “dog collars” if that is what you sell. It just makes sense!
  3. Put yourself in the shoes of your customer to think of what they may be typing into search engines to find your website. On top of that, use any number of keyword tools to give you actual results as to what people are really searching for in your niche market. This may help you find something completely undiscovered in a keyword phrase to target for your rankings!
  4. Link to broad and narrow keywords. If you have links going to your website from a number of sources, it is best if they are both broad and narrow to see greater results in your search engine rankings. As an example, a broad keyword would be “dog collars”, which many of your competitors may be linking to. More narrow and long tail keywords could be “small dog collars”, “spiked dog collars”, or even “chihuahua dog collars”. These narrow keywords are easier to rank for, which will give you an immediate increase in your traffic results.

The bottom line is that SEO is going to help your website get noticed. Using these top tactics will make a dramatic difference in your search engine rankings!

Common errors in Search Engine Optimization

The SEO begginers , in their attempt to increase the position in search engine results are commiting some mistakes with direct effects on site.In this post I will write about some mistakes that are commited frequently.

Ignoring Title tags

It’s one of the most common mistakes wtih directly negative effect in positioning your site in top search results.Most of the search engines are considering the title tag very important because the information inserted here is visible.So don’t let this empty or you must not include title tags like “Home Page” or “Welcome!” ,try to insert your keywords or some relevant words for your site/blog.

Irelevant Keywords

Some webmasters are using irelevant keywords just for increasing site’s traffic.If you want to develop an online business,the used keywords should have a great relevance for site’s content.It’s useless to use a keyword like “music” if your site is about “Web developing”.The users that are looking for music will visit your site and they will move on and the users that are looking for web developing will not find on Google your site for the “Web developing” keyword because you used “music” as keyword.

Spamming

This is an unethical practice,using repeatedly the same keywords in tags,in meta-tags and in content.This method is used to improve the position of a site artificially.Fortunately,the search engines are detecting those techniques and the sites that are spamming the search engines are penalized and their rank will be lower or even banned.So,you should not abuse by keywrods.

Invisible text and links

This is a method which tries tricking search engines.Web pages are full of links and keywords that are hidden for users but visible for search engines.The problem is that this tipe of tehniques are easily detectable and you can be banned from search engines if you use them.

Links from/for useless sites

It’s well known that many links to your site are rising your site’s value in the eyes of search engines,but not every link to your site it’s good.You can read more about Good Backlinks and Backlinks to avoid in one of my previous posts.If you get a backlinks from a site with reduced Page Rank will not help you very much in page listing and a link from an banned sites or unfunctionally site may damage your page.

HTML erors

If your site presents HTML errors,your site will be poorly ranked by search engines even if the content it’s well optimized.Loading speed will be lower and may appear some incompatibilities with some web browsers.The best way to avoid such situations is to validate your code before registering your site in search engines and directories.

Using non-canonical URLs

In the optimization process make sure that the URL of every page that is going to be indexed is a canonical one.This will positively affect the visibility of your site into search engines.

Excessive graphics within the page

The way that the search engines are reading your site is similar to the text browsers.A large amount of graphics does not help your site to be well ranked.It will negatively influence the download speed of the site and this thing will not be tolerated too much by your readers.Try to use a reach content in keywords instead of the excessive number of images. Also, for the used images, use another text in their description(including some keywords).

10 steps to a successful work at home business

So many people are in the waters when it comes to starting an online business, which is why so many online business don’t last long.
Here are some tips to help you start a successful online business:
1. BELIEVE: There is no magic/shortcut in an online business, which means you can’t just do it for doing sake. You first have to believe
it exists before all other things will follow. As in anything else, belief in an online business is very important because it will keep you focused and motivated: if you believe it exists and you definitely can get your share of it then you will always be motivated to work towards it.
2. DETERMINATION: Determination is a very important factor to be considered in an online business, it keeps you away from every distraction, it elevates loss of focus. Determination is like a promise made and is being remembered when you are about to lose focus.
Without determination, there is a low percentage of success in any online business.
3. DEDICATION: As any other factor, dedication is very important in an online business: dedication is what makes you put other things aside and focus on only one. Dedication can also be said to be concentration.
It is very good to be dedicated to an online business so as to achieve the highest possible result.
4. CONSISTENCY: Consistency is one of the most important factor to be considered in an online business. A business hardly survives without
consistency. You are not expected to do online surveys today and data entry tomorrow: if it is data entry you want, then do it with all you have everyday till you experience a change. If you are a blogger, you have to set a time for adding new articles to your blog, it can be everyday, every 3 days, but don’t let it be day 1,day 7,day 9,day30(you will observe that there is no consistency in this). Make sure you are regularly working on your online business in order not to make it an incomplete project that will eventually discourage you.
5. PATIENCE: This is the most important factor in any online business, don’t expect a business you started yesterday to bring in money today. You surely will make that money, but the question is are you patient enough to make the money. So many people will post to their website regularly but because the number of visitors to their website is not increasing yet they will abandon that “great to be” online business because of lack of patience. You may have 10 visitors a day, and still 10 after believing, being determined, dedicated and even after being consistent, but only patience can help you achieve that great result.
6. SELF DISCIPLINE: When it comes to online business, so many people are not ready to leave their comfort zone because of the stories they hear such as: “I made $10000 while sleeping” e.t.c. You have to leave your comfort zone, you have to discipline yourself, you have to leave that pleasure and go with the inconvenience in order to achieve that great dream, in order to experience online success. “LEAVE YOUR COMFORT ZONE”
7. TAKE CAUTION: This is especially talking to those who want to buy everything related to making money online, they want to join every paid membership site. Let me tell you, “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is”. Avoid every get rich quick scheme as much as possible, read the disclaimer on every website on which you will be buying a product so that your red eyes won’t bulg out when you get scammed.
8. KEEP LEARNING: I know you know everything when it comes to online business, but the key to success(i mean real success) is knowledge: and you only know what you ead(or hear/see). Read books of great men(and don’t let anyone tell you you can’t learn from your subordinates). Read other peoples blog, use Google, visit article sites, read anything readable(but not bad) and your increase in knowledge will really benefit your readers thereby making them increase their trust in you.
9. CUSTOMER PRIORITY: So many people fail because they think about their pockets first instead of their readers benefit. Give them what they want(value) and the will give you what you want(money). Share your knowledge with them: give them that info and forget about compiling it into a book and i can tell you it will pay for itself(if it is valuable)
10. BE RESPECTFUL: Your readers are humans too, valuable humans: Some of them even know far more than you know. They are not just some animals, and without them you are wasting your time(i mean you are valueless), so be respectful.
