My job is to promote my client’s website on a Google’s top search results and bring a traffic to my client.

Actually I haven’t done anything mystirious, I just followed my own internet marketing articles, and here we go, the flash website with 0 visitors got onto Google’s 1st page, with very competitive keywords - Hair Salon Baltimore.

Here are proofs of that, in case you are reading this article several years later :)

#6 on with keywords - Hair Salon Baltimore

#2 - Natural hair care salon Baltimore

#1 - Natural hair salon baltimore

My client’s website is highlighted blue, I don’t want to advertise it, since we terminated our relations. My client sincerely thought that I have to promote and maintain her endless requests for free.

I am sure that, after a month or two, she will lose her positions, and get back to a position where she was before. Let it be.

I have to notice though, that I have done only internal optimization, not external - there was no budget for that at all, but with external promotion - my client’s website would be 1st on most competitive keywords.

Bringing thousands of visitors monthly.

Let me introduce you how small business can attract people to its website, including search engine optimization (SEO) and people from social media. We will cover only common ones, and mention other ways towards the end of the article.

Yellow Pages:

Any small business should get into the YellowPages related website directories. Here is a short list of Yellow Page Websites:

  1. http://www.yellowpages.com/
  2. http://www.insiderpages.com/
  3. http://www.yellowbot.com/
  4. http://www.citysearch.com/
  5. http://www.yellowbook.com/
  6. http://www.yelp.com/
  7. http://www.usdirectory.com/
  8. http://www.superpages.com/

Another two I would really recommend using.

  1. Google.Maps: If you have Google account (gmail or youtube account), you have a chance to add your business to a map and when people will be searching for a local business - they will be able to see your listing.
    Google Maps Add Business
    Google Maps Results
  2. Yahoo Locals: Works in the same way as Google Maps. Adding your business to Yahoo Locals will also help you in your search positions if you have a website that you mention in Yahoo Locals listing.

  1. Design - It should be really cool, so that people will understand that you know how to present yourself.
    Here are some stunning MySpace pages - http://www.almostwinterdesign.com/designs/myspace-designs
  2. Number of friends - the more friends you have, the better. In the beginning, when you don’t have any, you can use “MySpace search” and find people in your area, or with similar interests. And add them as friends.
  3. Cool widgets, like slideshow and music players will show that you are not an old fashioned person, who likes to read books and never chill.

Very important factors:

  1. The other website should link you from the main page, or at least from the page with a high PageRank.
  2. The link should have good anchor.
    For example SEO and Internet Promotion in Maryland is a lot better than just a link like http://vpromoter.com/
  3. The more your referrer’s website related to your website, the better. That is logical because if your industry’s websites think your website is cool, that is more trustworthy than somebody who just put a link to you because you paid to them.
  4. Reciprocal links between two websites value less, than one way links. That shows that you didn’t just exchanged with links to increase your pageranks.

FREE ways to get incoming links:

Free Catalogs - coming soon

Social Bookmarking - coming soon

Blogs - See our Blogging Tips section.

Forums - coming soon

Other resources (like Yahoo.Answers or Google.Groups)

Or you can try to pay somebody to put a link to your website. Preferable someone, who’s website comes on the first page of Google Search Results.

]]> http://www.vpromoter.com/seo/external-promotion/feed/ Internal promotion http://www.vpromoter.com/seo/internal-promotion/ http://www.vpromoter.com/seo/internal-promotion/#comments Tue, 10 Nov 2009 03:53:13 +0000 Vpromoter http://www.vpromoter.com/?p=503 Internal promotion - refers to Internal Optimization of the website, that is actually a whole science, with different important aspects.

But first, let me give you the basic knowledge about internal optimization of the website pages.

As you may heard, page elements should have your keywords that your customers type in a search engines.

Page Elements: (In order of importance)

Page Title <title>

Heading

1,2,3,4 <h1>, <h2>, <h3>, <h4> etc

Links <a href=”#”>

Bold, Italic, Underline <strong><b><i>,<u>

Meta tags = keywords and description <META name =“description” content=“text”>

url - www.keywordsales.com/keyword/keyword-sales.php

Anchors - It’s always better to have a link with keyword on inner pages, leading to home page, than just a word - “home page”. Example - <Internet Marketing in Baltimore> link would be a lot better than just a text<home> or <www.vpromoter.com>

Density of keywords - how many times “keyword” is on the page, related to other text on the page.

Inner linking:

The more incoming links point at a certain page, the greater will be it’s value. It’s better to link it in a way that page1->page2->page3->page1 circle model, when you have almost no reciprocal links.

Also important factor is that the more outgoing links a page has, the less will be it’s effect to a receiving page.

Relevance:

The more relevant your page to a certain industry, and more related pages/articles the website has, the more valuable to Google the page will be.

Without Analytics, you will not be able see how people get to your website, what keywords they are searching, what position you are at, with certain keywords, and you will never will be able to improve your positions.

How can you improve, if you do not know - what works for you, and what’s is not?

In this section, we will be discussing Google Analytics and Webmaster’s Tool.

Also you will learn how to use these large statistical data to your advantage, and not to lose your head :)
