How Best to Set up SEO on Your Website

 My first thought here is to ask “why don’t you leave such a technical matter to professionals?” Search Engine Optimization, SEO is a highly technical matter which Webmasters can best handle. If however as an affiliate in SFI you want to delve into SEO yourself, make sure you use words and phrases on your site which Search Engines are looking for based on your site tags. The higher the SEO, the more visible your site becomes on the web in the “eyes” of Search Engines. Of course you know that the more “visible” your site is, the higher the number of “hits” to your site. The higher the number of hits, the higher the probability of conversions, sales or even PSAs recruitment! 


 
You may also do the following to increase your SEO.

1. Have a regularly-updated and useful blog on your site.
2. Use words and phrases in your blog which are relevant to your site tags.
3. Participate in popular forums with very good “comments” linked to your blog.
4. Post articles in highly-ranked and very popular Articles Directories and linked to your blog.
5. Submit your site URL to popular Search Engines like Google, Yahoo, Bing and many others for “indexing.”
6. Have a business page for your site in social media sites like facebook and link it to Twitter, LinkedIn and Google+.

These are a few things I can remember now on how to optimize your site but please talk to Webmasters who are experts in the field as I am no expert in the field myself.

I hope this answers your question. Good luck in your SEO.

 

How to Advertise SFI on Facebook and Other Social Media

There are basically two ways to advertise successfully on facebook and other social media sites. These are FREE adverts which every member is allowed to use and PAID averts which only paying advertisers are allowed to use. It is you alone who can make the decision which of the two best suits your intentions. That decision has to be influenced by the following limitations and the amount of money you are prepared to spend on your ads. 


 
FREE ads can reach very limited audience which is limited by numbers.
The ads can reach:
- Maximum 5000 friends on facebook.
- Maximum the number of “likes” you have on the facebook page you manage.
- Maximum the number of followers you have on Twitter.
- Maximum the number of followers and circle friends you have on Google+, LinkedIn and others.
- Maximum the number of members you have in each group you belong to on facebook, Google+, LinkedIn and others.

Apart from limiting the number of persons you can reach, many of these social media sites are very finicky about what they allow on free ads. Many of these obstacles are removed when using paid ads for very obvious reasons.

As for PAID adverts on these social media sites, the ads are well targeted at the right audience using demographics like age, sex, educational background, geographical location etc, etc, and they can reach hundreds of millions of users. That is why paid ads on social media are more effective and more result-oriented than free ads.

To advertise successfully on facebook and other social media sites therefore, it is your lot to choose whether to use free ads or paid ads or both. After you have made your choice, just log on and read the rules then you are ready to go.

Hope this information helps? Good luck !!!
