April 29, 2008 linkbait No Comments →

You should try hard to get inbound links from authoritative sites. The inbound link is the holy grail of web traffic. Getting inbound links from government and university sites is a testament to the quality of your site.

You accumulate inbound links not only to increase traffic, but also to establish your site for providing high value to visitors. However, getting inbound links by link exchange or buying text links is not going to get you anywhere. You need to abandon those archaic ideas and jump forward with an inbound link strategy that provides high value authoritative links.

How to Create Quality Contents for Blogs and Article Marketing

April 14, 2008 marketing, blog No Comments →

Writing quality articles for your blog and article marketing campaign is essential to establish yourself as an authority in your chosen niche. Every day, people post tens of thousands of articles in blogs and article directories. If you want to stand out from the crowd, you need to start producing authoritative and resourceful articles that others will read, bookmark, and promote using social media sites.

A quality article provides benefits to its readers. Neither it should be detailed and lengthy to put readers to sleep, nor it should be a laundry list of items for others to scan and forget. It should have enough information to put the written words into actions, but not more.

Before you start writing an article, make a list of all the non-textual contents that you will include in the articles. Non-textual contents may be images, videos, sketches, links to other resources, etc. Collect all the non-textual resources in one place, preferably in a folder in your laptop.

So, where do you go to find all the resources you need before you start writing your article? People who churn out low quality articles rely on Google search engine and article directories. While Google search engine may be a source, you should never use an article directory as a resource for your article-writing project. Finding a good article in an article directory is like finding a needle in the haystack.

If you want to become an instant webpreneur and make money online, you should start setting up as many niche sites as possible. The first step of the process is to find what people are buying online. How do you do that?

You need to know what others are searching in Google for the purpose of buying. Everybody goes through three stages of online search before they make a purchase. In the first stage, one gathers information about the product. Searching to compare prices is the second stage. Third stage of searching is done for the actual purchase.

In the purchase phase, most people will use keywords like purchase, buy, shop, new, cheap, etc. Google Suggest will help you determine what most people are searching for the sole purpose of buying. These people are ready to buy the product they are searching for.
