Make All Your Website Pages Sales Pages All online business owners want to attract as many targeted visitors to their websites as possible. Their favorite kind of visitors are the free ones and the best source of free targeted website traffic is article marketing. The concept is simple: you write an article, it gets distributed in ezines and posted on other people's websites where potential customers will read it and click through on a link to visit your website.

When you are adding content to your website, look at each page you complete as if you are a visitor entering the site for the first time via that page. Is there an obvious way for the visitor to find the home page, s

Website Quality Content The Importance of Quality Content for SEO One of the most common misconceptions is that in order to rank well for SEO you have to have pages and pages of content that are packed with keywords and phrases that relate to your topic.

In fact, quality content is much more important to most website owners anyway. In fact, quality content makes a difference to search engines too.
