Authority Site Building

Maybe when it comes to “authority site building” (and who knows how to do it best) we can just judge by Google results.

Content Desk is #1 and The Friday Traffic Report is #3 and #4.

Content Desk is also #9 for “authority sites” out of 24 million sites.

Luck? Coincidence?

Maybe it’s expertise?

Since our company coined the phrase first and proved that search engines would reward us for going white hat, that certainly helps.

But the fact is, there are talkers and there are doers. Your daily online business life consists partially of trying to decipher between the two and choosing what advice to follow.

Video Syndication Equals Free Targeted Traffic

Remember When Article Directories and Syndication Started?

When article directories became the rage a few years ago, now with hundreds, even thousands of them all over the web, article syndication became a serious business.

A very serious traffic-driver. Still is today, though much less so than in the beginning.

Once we had several hundred sites to submit to we were more than eager to find solutions for article syndication that didn’t require us to submit articles by hand to each article directory.

And the solutions came screaming at us. Now it is unheard of to submit your articles by hand to all the important directories. Services abound to help you with article syndication today.

Enter Web 2.0.

Video is all the rage, YouTube.com sells for a billion and change, and video search engines are popping up everywhere.

Everyone wants to be next. And they are throwing free video sharing and streaming at their visitors to attract a following.

Jo Han Mok and Ewen Chia Unleash Their Traffic Secrets

If you find yourself looking around for the “holy grail” of driving targeted traffic all the time, it is because marketers and scammers come up with elaborate, unreal schemes to trick search engines and visitors while making up crazy stories that somehow fool you into thinking they know what they are talking about.

We must be approaching several hundred million dollars spent by online business owners on junk traffic schemes in their quest for that holy grail. That “big red button.”

Does PageRank Really Matter?

Karen Brown

I found an article that debates whether Google PageRank matters. According to the author, PageRank matters because he sees it as a credibility index. Higher PageRank means a better site.

I guess that works if your site is for other internet marketers. Ordinary folks don’t won’t have the Google toolbar installed, and couldn’t tell you what PageRank means if you held a gun to their heads.

If you want to be successful at internet marketing, make sure that your visitors are your highest priority. PageRank is secondary to making sure that your visitors return to your site (and tell all their friends).

How To Achieve Everything You Set Out To Do In 2007

Every year I seem to go back and forth. “Forget resolutions!” or “I need to make some resolutions!”

I think the major factor leading to the failure of living up to the goals we set out to achieve each year is that we just plain “state them in our minds” and leave little time for actually planning out the how, when, where, and why.
