Is Buying Links a Good SEO Practice or Bad?

Link building is a major part of SEO and that can be done through many ways. Buying links is one of them and most of the webmasters do this for two purposes mostly. Some of them wants to build true backlinks to get higher ranking in SE and others buy links to up their Page Rank.

We know that the Buying links can gift a huge number of backlinks very quickly as compared to the organic method of backlink building but this can be very dangerous for your website that can be penalized by Search engines. Google has officially announced already that if someone buy backlinks to just increase Page Rank or to use these links for spamming, not only these links will not be count for SEO purpose but he will be penalized by the Google.

It does not means that the links, that someone buy, are used for increasing PR purpose. However you should aware that google has very powerful Link Detection strategies. For example If you are overcrowding your Blog Roll or you have gained a very large number of backlinks in no time, then Google can consider this as spamming or they can penalize your website due to violation of their TOS.

So far we have discussed the demerits of buying links but it does not means that we should not buy links. Links are still valid for the ranking but we should keep in mind that we make our links as Google wants. Google has defined very well for those who buy links can make their links valid by (Full Detail)

• Adding a rel=”nofollow” attribute to the <a> tag; or


• Redirecting the links to an intermediate page that is blocked from search engines with a robots.txt file

So, we conclude that we should be aware of the right method of buying backlinks and using them in an SEO friendly way otherwise you may get banned from Google.

When should I update my blog?

We know that the new bloggers are very much excited to do SEO for their blogs and most of them usually asks this question that  "How often should I update my blog?"

The truth is that some multi-author news blogs update several times per day, while other blogs are lucky to be updated once per month. This happens because a blogger have not too much time to write articles regularly or he can't post 2 or 3 articles per day.

So finally, when should we update our blogs so that we can meet the current needs of Search Engines just like Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc...
This depends on your blog's nature that what sort of blog you are developing.

1. If it is just a personal blog that is just for fun, then it really doesn't matter how often you post. You are posting mostly for your own benefit. However, if you want regular readers for your blog, then your post frequency is going to be very important.


2. If you want visitors to come to your blog every day, then you are going to want to post something on your blog at least once per day.


3. If you want visitors to check back every once in a while, then posting once or twice per week is probably enough.

But whatever you decide, consistency is the key. Don't update your blog 5 times in one day and then do nothing to it for two weeks. Readers hate that kind of thing. Readers like predictability, so be predictable.

Search engines like Google and Yahoo love continually updated blogs. So if you are looking for a good search engine ranking, you will want to pace yourself so that you can be sure to update your blog on a continual basis.

The key is to find a schedule that works for you and stick with it. If you can only post twice per week, then do that consistently and stick with it.

One thing that can free up time to update your blog more often is to automate other tasks. For example, some bloggers spend more time promoting their blogs on social bookmarking sites than they do blogging.
But remember, the number one key to blogging is hard work. If you work hard, and you stick with it and you regularly post quality content then you will be well on your way to blogging success.

How to optimize keywords for search engines

We all know that Meta Tags are the heart and soul for a website to be listed in most of the search engines.  You must have to be good at it which helps you to get the deserved result. Blogger users must read this article.

Title Tags

Title and meta tags plays an important role in SEO of a blog. An HTML tag with text describing a specific Web page which are written under <title> tag are called as title tags. Usually , these tags contain relevant description and keywords which describes what the current page is all about.

Below are some wise usage of these tags :

1. You should use your all top keywords in title tag.e.g. You are going to upload a page for Alpha reseller hosting then you should use the keywords like "cheap alpha reseller","unlimited alpha reseller" etc...


2. Never repeat the keywords otherwise you will be penalized by the google by de indexing of site from Google Search engine.


3. Never never over stuff your title tags as I saw some websites having almost 100 keywords in title tag

 

Meta Tags

After having a good title tags and description, there comes meta tags. Meta elements are HTML or XHTML elements used to provide structured metadata about a Web page. Such elements must be placed as tags in the head section of an HTML or XHTML document.

Found in the source code (or invisible background) of each web page. Meta tags are sets of instructions and/or identifiers for search engine spiders to read which describe the content that is included on your web page. Try to create good meta tags and description ofr each page and posts.

You may use Robots meta, Headspace or All in one SEO plugin for these task which are quite helpful. You may also create them manually. For example :

<meta name=”description” content=”Search engine optimization”>
<meta name=”keywords” content=”Search engine optimization, SEO “>

Try to use different meta description and keywords for different pages. Using the same description on all pages might diminish the importance as it is said by some SEO professionals.

Six Things You Can Do To Increase Your Adsense Earnings

Google Adsense is one of the easiest ways to earn money from your blog. Though, we often hear bloggers complaining about low Adsense earnings and how they always keep on looking for alternatives. Well, this is true to some extent as there are methods like affiliate marketing which can make you more money from your blog but provided the least amount of efforts required to create an Adsense account and to install the Adsense code on your blog I feel that even the low Adsense earnings are completely worth it. And, combined with tips given below one can easily increase its earnings from two to three with same amount of traffic. So without further adieu let’s start the list.

Use Adsense Section Targeting

We all know that relevant ads perform well than non relevant ads.  It is normal for a blog to contain lot of irrelevant keywords. For e.g. – if you are writing a post on keyword research and take an example of pet industry in the post.  You’d never want Google to show ads related to dog training on your blog based on that example. Adsense Section targeting solves this problem for you. With Section targeting you can tell Adsense the important sections of your blog based on which Google should show the advertisements.

Use Placement Targeting

The other most effective way to increase your Adsense earnings is to enable placement targeting in your account. With help of placement targeting you can select a sub-set of ad units on your blog to display Google Ads. This information is shown to advertisers who want to show their ad on specific places for the website like top leader board or in a box in right column of the blog.

Use Adsense Category Filter

Remove the irrelevant and low paying ad categories using Adsense Category filter in your account. Take a look at the following screenshot to get the idea. Based on the information given in your account you can easily filter the least performing ad categories.

Use Competitive Ad Filter

Competitive Ad Filter was introduced by Google so that publishers can block ads of certain websites usually their competitors to appear on their websites. But, you can also use this features to block the low paying ads.  Most of the times, sites having poor quality or sites which are made only for Adsense use low paying ads at Google Adsense to get cheap traffic to their sites.  To get rid of low paying ads you have to block the ads of these sites. To do this, create an account on AdsBlacklist.com. Put in your domain name and keywords and AdsBlackList will show you the list of 200 MFA sites which you can copy and then block with help of Competitive Ad Filter.

Adsense for RSS

If you have a decent number of blog subscribers you should try Adsense ads for RSS. Like other Adsense ads, feed ads will be paid either by CPC or CPM.  Feed ads are contextually targeted according to the content of your feed and you can control the positioning of ad using ad placement.

Testing with Ad format and style

Keep testing with different ad formats to find out what works better for your blog. Every site is different so you need to find out what works best for you. Keep on changing size of ad blocks, their positions, ad type (text, image), color and font size and analyze the results. Stick to the style which performs better than others.
So these are the six things you can easily do to increase your Adsense earnings instantly. Do you have any more tips to increase Adsense earnings? Feel free to share them with us in comments below.

7 Strategies to Choosing an Effective Domain Name

There are abounding agency in which you can annals domains, or area name, and a lot of of the time it is almost bargain and sometimes it is even free. You artlessly charge to do a little analysis in adjustment to acquisition the area name that works for your business and fits your account as well.

1.What's the purpose of the area name? Are you planning on application this name as the capital website for your company, as a one page sales letter site, or clasp page site? If the area name will be your primary aggregation website, try and acquisition the abutting adaptation to your aggregation name that you can. If you're just starting out, accept your business name and area name with care. If I started my basic abettor practice, I chose the name SOHO Business Solutions, as I anticipation anybody knew that SOHO stood for Small Office, Home Office. I anticipate I've run into 2 humans in my 7 years in business who knew what that acronym stood for. If I had it to do over afresh for this business, I would accept a business name and area name with basic abettor in the title, like InternetMarketingVirtualAssistant.com, a name I just afresh purchased.

If the purpose of a area is for a one-page sales letter website or a clasp page, anticipate advanced as to how you ability advance this site. Because agreeable is baron in today's internet business world, there's little adventitious that either of these types of sites would be best up by the seek engines on key words. Therefore, your best advance action is PPC, or "pay per click", area you're affairs keywords for adjustment in seek engines. If you're affairs keywords from Google, for example, the paid listings arise at the top of a seek in a dejected box, or down the right-hand ancillary of your screen. You wish to be abiding that the advice displayed there is acute abundant to get anyone to bang and appointment your site. So, for example, I've created a clasp page, GetMoreClientsOnline.com, which has a acute band-aid to a accepted botheration that my audience have, as a ancillary aperture aperture to my OnlineBizCoachingCompany.com apprenticeship website.

2. Brainstorm a account of account of the botheration you're aggravating to break or the band-aid that you have. A area name that acutely indicates what you do, or a botheration that you solve, or a band-aid that you accept to a botheration will accord a aggregation a adequately bright account of what s/he'll acquisition on your website. What I about do is go to my area registrar, www.UltraNetDomains.com, and just alpha active in the names I'm brainstorming until I appear up with 3 or 4 that are available. If the area name that you blazon in isn't available, the account will appear up with 10 or so alternates for you to consider. I begin this alternating advertisement absolutely accessible afresh in acrimonious the name of an commodity agenda website that I wish to create.

3. For SEO (Search Engine Optimization) purposes, it helps to accept your keywords in your area name. Marla Regan, who's a able organizer, has put two keywords in her area name, OrganizedTime.com. Retirement Coach Lin Schreiber has her keyword alcove in her domain, RevolutionizeRetirement.com. Consultant John Reddish has the adapted aftereffect keywords in his domain, GetResults.com. I own a area that I haven't yet developed for abode sitters, BecomeAHouseSitter.com. Afore affairs your domain, accomplish a account of keywords that anyone ability use to acquisition you online. This account could cover your industry, your ambition bazaar or niche, a botheration your ambition bazaar has, or a band-aid that you can offer.

4. Shorter is better, if it's to be your primary domain. I haven't consistently followed my own rules here, as I tend to accept business names that are absolutely lengthy. If the area name is traveling to be your primary area area your primary email abode will be housed, you wish your area name to be as short, catchy, and memorable as possible. After a few times of spelling out your diffuse email address, you'll appear to acknowledge the adorableness of a abbreviate area name. Your area name can accommodate up to 67 belletrist and numbers, although I would animate you not to accept one of this length, and can accommodate no appropriate characters added than hyphens.

5. Acquirement your your accustomed name as a area name. I about acquaint my audience not to try and cast their accustomed name as their business name, as that takes abounding years, abundant money, and lots of harder plan to accept the name acceptance of Oprah, for example. However, it still pays to acquirement your accustomed name as a area name, as able-bodied as any accepted misspellings of your name. Abounding humans anticipate my name is Donna Gunther, with an "h" in the endure name, but I've been clumsy to annals that accepted misspelling of my name, as a columnist in Venice, CA, has endemic in back 2000. Once you've purchased your name as a domain, you can alter it to your primary website. This agency that if anyone types in a domain, they acreage at the website to which you acicular that domain. So, currently DonnaGunter.com redirects to OnlineBizCoachingCompany.com because I don't wish to use my name as a website, although that ability change in the future.

6. Buy the .COM adaptation of the name if it is available. If humans apprehend a area name, they "hear" .COM whether it's .NET or .BIZ or .ORG or whatever. So, it pays to acquisition a area name that you like that is allotment of the .COM family. If you just can't get the name you want, try a hyphenated adaptation of the .COM name. For example, if I was gluttonous a area name for my Self-Employment Apprenticeship Gym, I absolutely capital SelfEmploymentSuccess.com, but it wasn't available. However, Self-Employment-Success.com was available, so I affective that. Abounding SEO specialists accompaniment that seek engines like hyphenated names, and abounding online business owners use hyphenated keywords in their area names to be added adorable to seek engines. I don't accept a bright acknowledgment as to the authority of this theory, so I just apostle traveling this avenue afore accepting to resort to the .NET or .BIZ of the name you desire. Some area name holders may be accommodating to advertise you the area name that you want. You can acquisition out who owns a area name by blockage the WhoIs Registry at Internic, http://www.internic.net/whois.html. For advice about country codes (two-letter) top-level domains (.UK or .CA, for example) appointment http://www.uwhois.com/cgi/domains.cgi?User=NoAds

7. Accede owning added versions of your primary area name. If you are registering the .COM adaptation of a area for your business, you may aswell wish to defended variations of the name, alternating spellings, accepted misspellings, and the .NET and .ORG versions of your area and repoint them to your capital website to accumulate them out of the easily of your competitors. You can aswell go bankrupt actual bound by purchasing all of these variations, so exercise some abstemiousness in your purchases and don't go crazy with purchasing every individual aberration of your area name. For my apprenticeship aggregation site, I own both the OnlineBizCoachingCompany.com and OnlineBusinessCoachingCompany.com and absitively that was acceptable enough.

Your area name is the alpha of the enactment of your attendance online, Take some time and put some anticipation into the action so that the area name serves you able-bodied in the years to come, and is an able apparatus for allowance you get added audience online.

18 Adsense Optimized Wordpress Themes to Maximize your Contextual Ad Earnings

http://www.doshdosh.com/16-adsense-optimized-wordpress-themes-to-maximize-your-contextual-ad-earnings/

When I first started Dosh Dosh, I decided to use an Adsense Wordpress template that was designed with the primary goal of maximizing ad earnings. I wanted a Wordpress theme with distinct ad blocks so I can easily blend contextual or other types of affiliate ads alongside my main content.

As you probably know, effective ad placement is critical if you plan to make any significant amounts of money through Google Adsense or other contextual ad systems.

Using a blog template with distinct ad blocks and optimized ad placements will very likely help you increase your Click through rates and affiliate conversions. These customized blog designs are also known as Adsense Ready themes.

How are Adsense Ready Themes different from other blog templates?

A key element that is central to all Adsense Ready themes is their focus on integrating contextual ads around content. As you will notice, the ads and link units are carefully placed above, beside and below each individual post to maximize exposure and their click through potential.

Several themes will also allow you to easily place blocks of square ads within each post, which is one of the proven ways to receive the highest amount of ad clicks from the average blog visitor.

Here are some general characteristics of most Adsense Optimized themes:

• Built in Adsense blocks for easy ad insertion.


• Ads are active once the Adsense Publisher ID is inserted or changed


• Optimized Ad placement, colors and types according to Google’s guidelines


• Adsense linkunits and search are already included.


• Search Engine Friendly. Post and category titles are used for page titles etc.

Why should I use Adsense Ready Templates?

The main reason why you should use an Adsense ready theme is convenience. You don’t have to sift through too much code and there’s no need to make major adjustments to the template’s form.

In many instances, all you need is to insert your Adsense publisher ID and you’re done. This will probably only take a few minutes, which can be a huge time and effort saver.

You can probably hack any other Wordpress template to include ads but they can be a hassle if you are unfamiliar with how to optimize your ad placement. Most of these templates are not terribly attractive but I think they are functional and their ad placement is pretty decent.

I think Adsense Ready templates are very useful when you own dozens or hundreds of niche websites which use credited feeds or free content. Niche websites with high paying keywords will be naturally more profitable when you use templates with optimized ad placements.
 

Dosh Dosh’s List of 18 Adsense Optimized Wordpress Themes

As far as I know, this collection of Adsense Ready themes is the largest online. I’ve included a link to each theme’s home page and as well as a direct download link for your convenience.

Some of the screen shots were taken from the websites referenced and others were screen grabs of blogs running the specific theme. If you know of any other Adsense themes I’ve missed, leave a comment and I’ll add it to the list.

Top 10 Content Writing Secrets - For Any Niche!

Many web site owners and writers on the Internet are constantly looking for the next big secret to creating outstanding content in any niche. Fortunately, there are ten secrets to content writing that every writer and web site owner should know to help them draft the best and most effective online content to drive traffic to their sites and create an opportunity to make more money through conversions and referrals. Whenever you draft a piece of content for the Internet, keep these 10 secrets in mind.

1. SEO Isn't Everything. True, it is one of the most important aspects of content creation. However, straight SEO is not enough to drive traffic to web sites. Your content needs to be well written for humans, not just robots.

2. Take Breaks. It may seem like taking frequent breaks might slow you down, any writer that has spent a significant amount of time trying to meet a deadline knows how quickly a brain can turn to mush without a fifteen minute break at least every hour.

3. Avoid Hedge Statements. You can feel free to make some broad statements from your research as long as they are true. You do not need to be specific when making a statement.

4. Always Write Actively. Avoid switching the subject and object of a sentence to boost word counts. For example: "The frog jumped over the log" is active. "The log was jumped over by the frog" is passive.

5. Keep it Short. Try to express your ideas in as few words as possible while still fully covering the topic. The average web reader will only read about 20% of your content. Keep that in mind when considering a 30,000 word epic story on the price of cheese in Mexico.

6. Keep Sentences Succinct and Punchy. Short sentences are much easier to scan than long ones. If you must combine multiple ideas into one sentence, try using dashes to break up the ideas rather than commas.

7. Watch the Adverbs. Adverbs like "very" and "extremely" are unnecessary and simply add filler to web content. Avoid them as much as possible.

8. Use a Direct Approach. Target the reader specifically and don't sugar coat anything. Make simple and powerful statements rather than using filler to ease in to an idea.

9. Create Stories That Draw Readers In. This doesn't just pertain to the overall writing. You can use real world examples to give your readers something to latch onto while they absorb your information. This story telling can be a powerful and magnetic draw for your readers.

10. Write Informally When Possible. If you are not writing specifically as a reference or as a professional, you can feel free to address the reader directly and use language to humanize your writing. Most web readers want information presented to them as if they were having a conversation. Keep this in mind when writing creative web material.

How to create SEO optmized web pages?

Creating Optimized Web Pages

Creating search-engine-optimized Web pages is the core effort of a successful Internet marketing campaign. Taking care of technical on-site factors such as file names, title tags, meta description tags, meta keyword tags, and meta robots tags is crucial to making sure the search-engine spiders can determine the relevance of your Web site. Think of search-engine spiders as robots that read the content of your Web pages. Optimizing your content with header tags and other text modifiers allows you to stress the main ideas and topics that your content covers. Optimization of images is important for those Web browsers that do not support images, and because search-engine spiders cannot read the content of an image, optimizing images presents an extra avenue to squeeze in more content. Links provide the pathways that search-engine spiders need to find your Web pages. Creating these links with search-engine optimization in mind is necessary for optimal results. Throughout the Web page creation process, try to adhere to the standards set forth by the World Wide Web Consortium. The consortium works to create standards in Web design and development that ensure Internet-wide compatibility.

URL Structure

Every Web page that you create is stored in a file. Every file has a name. Using file names that are relevant to the content of your Web page is important for numerous reasons. Besides your domain name, the search-engine spiders see your file names before anything else. If your file names are not relevant to the content contained on that page, the search engines can algorithmically detect a disconnect. Taking the extra time to ensure that file names are properly designed can provide an added boost to your rankings.

Optimize Title Tags

Title tags are an extremely influential search-engine ranking factor. What you place in your Web page title tags has a substantial effect on where and for what terms your page ranks. Just as importantly, the first thing a human visitor sees when finding your page on the search-engine results is your title tag. Title tags should be descriptive of what your Web page is about and compel potential visitors to visit your site

Optimize Meta Description Tags

Meta description tags allow you to summarize what a particular Web page’s content is about. Some search engines use the meta description tags in their results pages directly underneath the Web page titles. Your rankings on these search engines are likely influenced by your meta description tags. Writing a brief yet informative description about your Web page’s content and adding it to your meta description tag is a search engine-optimization tactic that should not be skipped.

Optimize Meta Keyword Tags

Meta keyword tags allow you to indicate the relevance of a particular Web page to certain keywords and phrases. Although many search engines ignore this tag, some likely still use it in their ranking algorithms. For that reason alone, you want to implement this tag on all your Web pages. The keywords and phrases contained in your meta keywords tag work in tandem with the meta description tag to describe the content of a particular Web page.

Create a Meta Robots Tag

Sometimes you may not actually want the search engine spiders to visit certain pages within your Web site. Although this is often not the case, especially because the goals of search-engine optimization are to increase search-engine-generated traffic, there are situations where the privacy of a particular Web page or Web site is of utmost concern. The meta robots tag allows you to identify what pages the search engines are allowed to index in their results pages and whether or not they are allowed to follow links on those pages to other Web pages or Web sites. This is especially useful if certain sections of your Web site require payment to access. The last thing you want is search engines sending visitors directly to those locations.

Benefit with Header Tags

Optimizing your content includes emphasizing your main topics and ideas. A well-structured Web page has a logical hierarchal flow with headings and subheadings fortified with content. These main topics and ideas can be placed within header tags that not only alter the format of the text the Web browser displays, but also tell the search engines and human visitors that these keywords and phrases are important.

Using Text Modifiers

Beyond just optimizing your main topics and ideas, you want to emphasize appropriate keywords and phrases within your content. Your Web page content should speak to visitors, emphasizing words and phrases to express urgency or significance. Using text modifiers, you can emphasize certain blocks of text by bolding, italicizing, or underlining. The search engines also take modified text into consideration when determining your content’s relevance to that text.

Optimize Images

Search-engine spiders are becoming more sophisticated every day, but the spiders still cannot read any images present on your pages. If images make up a large portion of your content, the search engines will have a difficult time understanding the topic of your content. Using Alt Image tags to describe your images gives the search engines a readable text description of those images and also aids in compatibility with non-graphical Web browsers.

Create Links

Your internal linking structure leads the search-engine spiders and human visitors from one Web page to another on your Web site. The structure of your links tells the search engines what the linked Web page is about. Your internal linking structure is taken into consideration by the ranking algorithms that determine where your Web pages rank for target keywords and phrases. Making it simple for both the search engines and human visitors to find every page on your Web site is critical for optimal Web site structure.

Validate HTML

Writing valid HTML is just as important as speaking proper English. Improper HTML can cause Web browser incompatibilities that result in your Web site appearing differently across different browsers. The World Wide Web Consortium has gone to great lengths to develop standards for Web development to ensure compliance across all browsers.
