If your headline does not promise something of interest, then your article won't get read and you'll struggle to sell. This is because most visitors arrive at a page, read a headline and then make a decision to stay or go. Also, if a page is linked to from elsewhere on your own site or others then your headline is likely to be used for the link. When reading headlines, potential readers are looking for what a page might do for them. They are looking for benefits and if your headline does not deliver, they are gone. my motto is "Keep it simple" and "don't leave anything for tomorrow that can be done today."

Domains that have been registered and never dropped are called "Aged Domains". These domains normally sell for more than a new one because they have been around for a while. They're usually out of the Google Sandbox and for those who are looking for aged domains with a history, it can help them make a living online or raise credibility in their niche markets simply because if the domain has been around for years, it appears that they have as well. Aged domains can also be found on forums like DN Forum.com and simply by typing in the keywords "Aged Domains" into the search bar you can easily locate domain auctions that include these older domain names. I have purchased dozens of domain names for R500.00 or less that were anywhere from 5 - 10 years old. Just based on the age alone I was able to flip these domain names for over 5 x what I paid. For instance, one domain name I purchased was never used, meaning it had never featured a...

Between the rising growth of social media adoption, its proponents are already making brave predictions about social media replacing as search engines as a primary source of information for consumers and business buyers. While research does tell us that the rise of social is swift and growing, it simply hasn't evolved half as much as to provide the answers that one looks for while putting up a query in search engine. You can ask for a restaurant recommendation on social network but when it comes to finding out actual data about the restaurant's location, physical appearance and reviews, search engines is what comes to mind. Search and social work together, but by no means one replaces the other. my motto is "Keep it simple" and "don't leave anything for tomorrow that can be done today."

THINGS ARE EASY NOW! And it all begins with wordpress (and a little help from me). Here a a couple of reasons why your web guy doesn't want you to learn WordPress. 5 Reasons Your Web Guy Doesn't Want You to Learn Wordpress image wordpress logo simplified rgb I love WordPress. 1. Money. He doesn't want you to know it is cheaper to learn wordpress and do it yourself than to pay him/her to do it. They want their industry to live in a shroud of mystery. No one knows what they do but them. Bogus. You can create, maintain, update, change, and market your website without the help of a web designer. 2. Time. Which is money. Someone please tell me the turn around time from when you have an idea to when it is implemented by your web guy. Oh and how much does it cost? 3. You might learn how they were duping you in the first place. Your web guy doesn't want you to know what you can really do with your website. I am telling you…YOU CAN DO ANYT...

Now that you know how important anchor text is to your rankings, I'm sure you will want to pay more attention to it in your SEO efforts but you don't want to go hog wild and create tons of anchor text backlinks all with the same keyword phrase or you might find that your efforts don't yield the results you want. Here are some things to consider: 1. Vary Your Anchor Text - We all know that Google prefers it when people link to you naturally and when that is the case, they don't all use the same anchor text. So, when you are linking to your site from your articles or web2.0 properties you want to make sure you don't always use the same phrase as well. Using your target phrase in about 50% - 60% of the links is probably a good idea. 2. Links From Relevant Pages - For the best results, you want your anchor text backlinks to come from pages that are related to your topic. This is what would happen naturally if people were linking to you and...

Bloggers and website owners use anchor text naturally to point to other pages on their website as well as pages on other sites that they find relevant to what they are blogging about. You've probably even done this yourself when writing a post where you referenced another post on your site, an affiliate product or even a post on another site. Usually a blogger will use a phrase that indicates what the page is about in the anchor text, as opposed to a url, so that the sentence reads correctly. The anchor text in these links helps both the visitor and the search engine spiders figure out what the 'linked to' page is about. my motto is "Keep it simple" and "don't leave anything for tomorrow that can be done today."
