How to Get Links to Your Website

 This appears to be the turf of Internet experts and online business gurus. It is highly technical too. One must therefore be very careful taking on this subject because it is still subject of intense debates among many marketers. My own opinion is based solely on what I have learned over time from the limited information I have managed to come across on the subject. To get links to your website, first you must have a website properly so called. That is a given! The site must be interesting, easily accessible/navigable and enjoyable. It must be worthy of links enabling people to find it easily. Links to your site act exactly like Internet pathways directing and leading Internet users through the Internet’s “electronic jungle” to your site. Knowing what the Internet is, that can not by any approach be an easy task. But, it is doable and is being done by many marketers who know their ways around the Internet.


 
To get links to your site, you must be on the Internet and must be found easily in it. You must depend more on Internet Search Engines to bring you out for others to find. Therefore, you must explore and exploit ways to get these Search Engines to “like” your website. The best place to have links to your site is on the most popular search engines particularly Google. These Search Engines are very smart, finicky and efficient and are very good in what they do. To get them to like and be friendly to your site, you must routinely do what they like and tolerate in the management of your own website. That is your very first hurdle. They do not hesitate to penalize any site that goes against their rules of engagement. That is one warning signal you can’t afford to ignore.

Why do you really need links? Great question! Traditionally, the more links you have to your website, the better the site is in the “eyes” of Search Engines. For that reason, the Engines tend to direct more traffic to such sites. Every smart marketer always wants traffic, traffic and more traffic. The more of it you get, the better for your business! Years past, it used to be more fashionable to simply ask other sites for links. But, when Search Engines started dishing out penalties for what later became popularly known as “poor links,” most marketers went back to the drawing board. Now, reciprocal link exchanges are the in thing. Nobody now forces any links on anyone. It remains your decision which links to accept or decline so as to play safe with Search Engines. 

In the very early days of the Internet, people approached all incoming links through “asking and permission.” But, as the Internet expanded and became more sophisticated, it is becoming more difficult to get links to your site just by asking. You must have something good to offer now to get something in return. Welcome to “reciprocal link exchanges.” If you run a poor website, you can hardly get reciprocal links from a good site. The real reason, you must ensure at all times that your website is up to scratch otherwise you can’t hope to take good advantage of this very complicated Internet engagement.

Keywords to Avoid When Setting Up Ads on Search Engines

This problem appears to be a very dicey one. This is because the words to avoid are in the millions. While the words to use are usually fewer, say between 2-6 keywords which the site was optimized with for good results. What readily comes to mind is to avoid keywords which have not been pre-optimized for your site. If you are using your own website designed by yourself, recall that you must have optimized the site with certain keywords which enable the site to rank well in Search Engine results. That is what Webmasters call Search Engine Optimization, SEO. If the site was designed by a professional, he too would also have optimized it with keywords relevant to the type of business you are promoting.

The words to avoid are those words which are not useful for your SEO ranking. It is near impossible to list them all here. If however your problem is about listing the right keywords, it would have been a fairly easy problem to tackle because those ones are usually fewer.

Please note that no keywords are really bad as such. What is bad is if the words are not relevant to your type of business. Having said all that, I strongly advise you to avoid the word “blast” either in your keywords or even in text ads. Many Search Engines really “hate” that word. You will be doing yourself and your business a lot of good if you avoid using it to promote your business.

Best of luck in your SEO marketing!

 

 

Why You Need a Website or Your Own Blog in SFI Business

I believe you can succeed in SFI business with or without your own private Website or Blog. You can succeed without them but you will succeed faster and better if you have them. This is because SFI business is largely an online marketing business which thrives on web traffic. The more web traffic you have, the higher your chances of making sales. That is where your own website and blog come in very handy.

If your website and blog enjoy a very good ranking with Search Engines, the sites will get better exposure and traffic. Here is how that helps your business to succeed.

1. You can hyperlink your SFI and TripleClicks Gateways to the contents of your website and blog.
2. You can promote your business with banners on your website/blog all hyper-linked to your Gateways.
3. If your website/blog contents are fresh, interesting, educating, entertaining and informative, they will attract more web visitors who may click on your messages on the site and be redirected via your Gateways to your stores for possible patronage.
4. You can promote your business in your website/blog as you wish without the fear of censorship.
5. The more popular your website/blog is, the more traffic it attracts.
6. Running your own website/blog commands a lot of respect in online marketing business.
7. It is a mark of real professionalism for you to run your own website/blog in online marketing business.

However, let me remind you that it takes hard work and a very good and workable knowledge of how the World Wide Web works for you to be able to run a successful website and blog. If you can’t do what it takes to make them work for you, just go ahead with the methods which work for you. No doubt you are aware that buying, registering and maintaining your own domain costs money. Updating your website/blog requires that you have very good writing skills before you can even get noticed online. This is aside from SEO requirements for your site to rank high with Search Engines. Real hassles no doubt. Recognize that we are all different in our kills and capabilities so just do what fits your own skills even if you can’t run a website/blog. You can still succeed in SFI all the same.
