Facebook Page Optimization for your business pages

2009-11-11T16:52:00.002+05:30

Facebook Pages are increasingly becoming a “second home page” for businesses online. Well definitely there are lots of benefits in having a Facebook business pages. Facebook Pages also have SEO benefits because they show up very high in search results for your brand or product. One is also able to control the landing page when a user first visits your Facebook Page.

SEO is important to all that you post on the internet related to your business brand or product. Growing your social media connections on Facebook is greatly aided by simple SEO tactics. You can do a lot to maximize your brand's exposure to search engines through your Facebook business page.

Using Flash or Facebook’s own markup language, developers like us can create custom entry pages. There are very useful applications for creating a custom page. It allows you to add almost any code to boxes that can be displayed on your Wall or Boxes tab. Even I am also using this to add campaigns of business promo. The images reside on my own server or from other uploading websites and I used html to display the images and text and pull them to the facebook page. Just about anything you can think of can be done with Facebook Pages.

Typically, when you add links in Facebook or other social media websites, the HREF tag includes the attribute “rel=’nofollow’” which tells Google or any other search engine crawler not to give link-back credit to the link. This is done to discourage spammers from using these sites to add links in order to get backlink credit. However, links added to “boxes” or on “wall tab” using Facebook apps that allow hyper text markup language are not included the “nofollow” attribute, if you’re thinking to customize your FB page, although you do need to know at least some html. The only real constraint is the dimensions of the main area and the side column.

Hmm anyways the more content you have on your facebook page the greater your content density score with Google; however, keep in mind that each tab you create has a separate URL from the search engine perspective. Content is still king so what you post beyond URLs can influence your search ability.

Strategic Internet Marketing Guides

2009-10-26T13:53:00.002+05:30

In the history of the Internet, there have been an alerting number of websites that caught people's attention for a while, but then eventually lost their temptingness. So just jumping into the fray just because your business competitors are doing so is not a valid reason. But nowadays website becomes an essential part of every profession and if you are into the business, an owner of small, medium or big company, or just a freelancer you must have your own website.

A professional or a company without a website is like a salesman without his business card. Your website is your shop window and it is open 24/7. Promoting your web site is the next step after having designed and developed one. The best way to do this on the web is by using the search engines.

Search engine optimization is not an exact science. Nobody really knows how the search engines determine where a site will rank in the search engine result pages. You'll have to continually fine-tune your website and analyze your competitor’s website to improve your positioning. Unfortunately, it still doesn’t end there. There are a number of off-page factors that determine how well your website will rank.

Too many people concentrate all their efforts on their home page, but the content on other pages can be far more highly focused — meaning better search engine optimization and more qualified visitors. Remember, the more traffic you get, the more sales you can make — so taking a little time to update your on-page SEO can mean more than just better search engine rankings.

Well, these days in the search engine world, peoples are manipulating webpage to give an artificial boost in the search engine rankings for their website. Search engine optimization spam continues to be a problem for the SEO industry as it tries to move past the perceptions of mainstream advertisers. When under-ethical techniques are used, trust is abused and the efforts of the SEO/SEM industry are called into question.

Blogs and forums are amazing and essential communication technologies, both of which are used heavily in the daily conduct of our business. In some cases, blogs and certain forums also have established high PR values for their documents. These two factors make them targets of unethical SEOs looking for high-PR links back to their websites or those of their clients. An emerging form of SEO spam is found in the misuse of user-input media formats such as Wikipedia. Fortunately, Google’s new algorithm appears to be on the cutting edge of SEO spam detection and prevention.

Hope this article gonna help you to stay up to date while developing strategies for your Internet marketing campaigns, and gives your company a high Return on Investment.

Backlinks the main building blocks to good SEO

2009-05-12T16:49:00.004+05:30

For those of you new to SEO might be wondering what a backlink is and why they are important. you might have come across the term "backlink" at least once while reading anything about Search Engine Optimization or SEO.

Well Backlinks are links that are directed towards your website also knows as Inbound links.
We(SEO) believes that the number of backlinks is an indication of the popularity or importance of that website. Backlinks are important for SEO because some search engines will give more credit to websites that have a good number of quality backlinks, and consider those websites more relevant than others in their results pages for a search query.

You might be thinking what is Quality Backlinks, For example, if a webmaster has a website about SEO Services, and received a backlink from another website about SEO Services, then that would be more relevant in a search engine's assessment than say a link from a site about Bangalore Travels. The more relevant the site is that is linking back to your website, the better the quality of the backlink.

Building Quality backlinks is one of the most important factors in Search Engine Optimization.It is not enough just to have a lot of backlinks, it is the Quality of backlinks along with the Quantity that help you rank better in Search Engines.

A backlink could be considered as a Quality Backlink if1. The Theme of the backlinking website is the same as your website.2. It links to your website with the keyword (keyphrase) that you are trying to optimize for.

You can use below given keyphrases to search for websites of the theme you specify that contain keyphrases like "Add link", "Add site", "Add URL", "Add URL", "Submit URL", "Add Article" etc. Most of the results could be quality potential backlinks.

SEO Service, Local Search and SPAM

2009-04-20T11:02:00.002+05:30

Why bother with SEO, if Google will provide you with an easy shortcut to the top?

I was doing analysis for my blog and got shocked with the google local search listing results. More than one local business vertical with 6 to 7 bogus listings all with the same phone number even. This is just wrong. Some companies create fake listings and fake addresses because they can only appear in the city their address is in.

Local search spam is similar in that hijacked local listings may be tricking your customers in much the same way. Combat map spam with awareness. If you are a member of a national organization, include this information on your site and if there are any alerts or important information about these kinds of issues in your industry or local area, link to them so your customers can be aware.

It may be a good idea to make your customers aware of any scams that they may encounter by alerting them to the existence of the issue.

I'm a local search expert, so I'm really looking forward to hearing your opinion.

Effective way to make killer Landing Pages

2009-03-06T01:37:00.003+05:30

Let' talk about lead capture page or the landing page, can say its one of the best SEO practice to drive your traffic and getting leads.

Here are few tips in creating a productive landing page that converts visitors on a very huge percentage.

First: Offer something that is free like a freebie in exchange for your visitor's email address. You can offer a special report it could be anything related to your business or a sample of your paid product to your visitor in exchange for their details such as name and email address. I very much endorse this method of building your mailing list.

Second: The landing page must be written in a professional manner. When writing your landing page content, treat it as if you are writing a sales letter. While you are not necessarily making someone to buy your product upfront, being able to entice your visitors to give their details to you is just as important as selling.

Third: Landing page shouldn't have any other links to any other page. The best practice is to include your opt-in form and perhaps important disclaimers and terms. Always keep the links and navigation to a minimum.

Fourth: Rub in the benefits of the freebie you are offering more than a mere subscription to your newsletter. You should focus most of the attention of the letter on encouraging your prospective visitor to download your free offer. Later, you gently remind your prospect that he or she has nothing to pay but just merely subscribe to your newsletter in exchange for the freebie.

Fifth: If you are a smaller company, another method for increasing your landing page effectiveness is to learn from others in your space. Establish an online competitive set that you would be interested in. Benchmark their various strengths and weaknesses via quantitative measures and reverse engineer what works best.

Sixth: Great e-mail marketing strategies, doesn't involve e-mail alone. It also covers the Web pages people land on when they click through from the message to follow the call to action. You can get a great open rate and a very impressive CTR, but if the landing page doesn't carry the reader through to the goal, it's pointless.

Here are some e-mail marketing tips for creating more effective landing pages.

We've all seen landing pages that tell you exactly what the e-mail told you - no more, no less. Why a reader likes to land there? Why don’t you make them click through to the next step? Send them to the next step directly from the e-mail.
Don't just send your people to home page, this will make people search for what you've told them is there. Take them straight to the landing page.
Your Call to Action button should match with your Landing Page. You're engaging readers by telling them about something, then setting an expectation for what they'll find when they click through. If it's "order now," they expect to land on a page to begin the order process. If you’re promoting a new product with a link to "learn more," readers expect to land on a page with more information. If it's "read the full article," they expect to land on a page with the full article. Be sure you deliver on the call -to -action's promise.
Define a Clear Path and be sure you have a route in mind. If you aren’t clear on what readers should do, how can they be?
Look and Feel of landing page should be consistent with the E-mail. Repeat your benefit-oriented headline also having the same image on the landing page and in the e-mail quickly lets readers know they're in the right place.

As a final reminder and conclusion, in order to build trust, you can include your hand-written signature or a photo of yourself explaining where you are coming from and how you can help your visitor through your free report on offer.

It's easy to read these tips and agree; it's much harder to implement them. But it's worth the effort.

How to track high end mobile visits on your website

2009-03-03T11:23:00.006+05:30

Now a days people talks lots about Google Failure, I don't think that Google can be called a failure just because of some server problem or because of other problems. Well the fact is that Google search is really reliable and up to date and as a search engine I prefer Google and I hope we all :)

Okay today I thought to write some interest thing so I came up with Google Analytics most powerful feature, the Advanced Segments – Beta. Segments which let you group certain types of visits together. Those who are into SEO they gotta good feature to generate reports, a new tab above my Google Analytics Dashboard - Advanced Segments, new Beta feature.
What exact is this feature ? Well it filters which makes easier to see what your visitors are doing on your site, the default ones including

All Visits
New Visitors
Returning Visitors
Paid Traffic
Non-paid Traffic
Search Traffic
Direct Traffic
Referral Traffic
Visits with Conversions
Visits from iPhones
Non-bounce Visits

The interesting part is the Custom Segments..Yeah now you can track your iphone, ipod, Android & PalmOS visitors.

You can filter particular visits and for enabling this new visitors segment is easy: click on the drop down menu at the top right of any report next to the text “Advanced Segments”, or left side under Settings Advanced Segments Beta and select “Create a new advanced segment”. This will lead you to a page where you can Drag and drop dimensions and metrics into the boxes to create a visit segment. Advanced segments allow you to choose what types of visits you want to be considered when generating the data for a report.

What is Metrics and Dimensions ?

Dimensions are Visitors, Content, E-Commerce, Traffic sources and Systems.
Metrics: Site usage, Content, E-Commerce and Goals.

How to Apply the iPhone filter to the default reports ?

From the Advanced Segments drop-down, click on “Create a new advanced segment”, and create a segment with 2 criteria. Drag “Operating System” under the “Systems” dimension into the target area with the dotted-line border,
and type “iPhone” into the “Value” field. Click “Add ‘or’ statement” to get a second target area, and do the same for iPod or for Android. Then, you can name your segment “High-end mobile or Anything” and see that traffic in Analytics.

These all feature shows that Google is gearing into mobile analytics market and its very tough competition for other mobile analytic service provider. Even though its a challenge for other web analytics marketeers.

Improve your business with customer feedback

2009-02-25T17:08:00.002+05:30

There are many companies that claim's they "satisfy" nearly every customer they have. Well in my opinion the larger the customer, the more difficult it becomes. Still, developing companies are announcing customer satisfaction ratings that would lead the public to believe they've never mixed up an order or missed a deadline. We all knows business customers and consumers alike are aware of what's real and what's not :)

When customers make the decision - and the effort - to give honest, unbiased feedback, they take it seriously. Don't squander the chance to find out what they really think.

One of the many fears of companies is often negative feedback, to know what customers are thinking, businesses have to ask. But failing to recognize and fix negative customer experiences can harm a company, its reputation and its future sales. If a business is not proactively soliciting feedback from customers - its reputation may be at risk.

See it's impossible to track everything that's being said about your business or product online. Even you can see businesses without a web presence like the local candy shop or pizza shop, they are still being talked about on review sites like Yelp or Yahoo, without even knowing it. Don’t be afraid of negative feedback. Businesses should proactively solicit feedback from customers at every opportunity and be timely about it - while the experience is still fresh. While it may come as a surprise to many businesses, the majority of feedback that is proactively solicited is positive. You know what? 60 percent of online shoppers provide feedback about a shopping experience, and are more likely to give feedback about a positive experience than a negative one.

Share customer feedback throughout the organization. Responsibility for customer feedback extends beyond the marketing department. When everyone in a company - from owner, to customer service, to sales knows what customers are thinking - business decisions will be better informed. In many businesses, the employee receiving the feedback will not move critical feedback up the management chain due to the possible repercussions. Establishing top-down responsibility will encourage employees to share feedback that could be crucial to improving your business. Another key is to keep customers in the loop about how their feedback was used and thank them for it, whether it was positive or negative. While good employee-customer relationships are critical, take a dim view of company policies that value those relationships at all costs. Employee incentives shouldn't be offered based on customer loyalty - it's too tempting to bury negative customer feedback.

Do something with the feedback you get. It's easy to talk about negative and positive reviews, and there is a lot of data about the effects of reviews on sales and consumer confidence, but the real key is figuring out what this feedback means to you as a business.

Offering a suggestion box isn't enough to improve customer satisfaction and service. A suggestion box or a survey doesn't provide a mechanism for dialogue between a customer and a retailer, nor does it fix a problem that may have just happened. Customer feedback and the power of reviews can be extended beyond just online business.

Remember, customers know nobody's perfect, the effective and best SEO Service can deliver good result - what you really want for your business online.

Does Google Sites required search engine optimization

2008-03-17T00:05:00.001+05:30

Today Google launched a new website called Google Sites and you know the great thing is what JotSpot is working on Google infrastructure and has been re-launched as Google Sites. I never thought these kinda surprises from Google. It’s very impressive thing and I am very much excited about it.

As Google says like we gonna love Google Sites because it gives a centralize information from videos to presentations and share your site with just a few people, your entire organization, or the world.

Now building sites is like editing a document so it shows that no need of any other persons help. You might be thinking like I don’t know that much HTML funda, don’t worry man those who don’t know coding part they also can create sites in few steps, we can say in single click. So why to think just get started, just show your creativity and start a new site.

The best thing is you can invite other person and give access to your friend circle so that they also can update or edit your site which keeps your own site up to date.
To get started with Google Sites, you'll first need to sign up for the Google Apps edition that's right for you (if you're not already a Google Apps user). Start the sign-up process at:

http://sites.google.com

You can quickly gather a variety of information in one place -- including videos, calendars, presentations, attachments, and gadgets – and easily share it for viewing or editing with a small group, their entire organization, or the world. Search with Google You can search across Google Sites pages and content using powerful Google search technology. You'll find specific pages and documents instantly, the same way you would on Google.com.

Every thing is almost clear now the question arises is does SEO help required for Google Sites?
How seo works here? Etc etc…First lets have fun with Google sites and have some more information on it then I guess we can reach some solution or some where….

Anchor Text Optimization

2007-12-18T20:42:00.000+05:30

The visible hyperlinked text on the page, the words which are hyper linked to the hidden urls are called Anchor Text Optimization. Most of all this kind of pattern usage has been applied in search engine algorithms to raise the relevance of the "target" or the "landing page" URL for the keywords appearing within the Anchor Text Optimization.

So the inclusion of important keywords in the Anchor Text can make a big difference in the final ranking of your site pages. All search engines that matter, give significant weight to the anchor text on your pages. Google considers Anchor Text Optimization an important pointer to page relevance. Anchor Text Optimization enhances your website's ranking by using the right keywords in Anchor Text Optimization. In fact Google even has a special operator: "allinanchor:keyword", which picks up text only from within the Anchor Text Optimization of indexed pages.

When linking to internal pages, it is better to use the format:
Read all about Anchor Text Optimization Optimization.
Instead of
Read all about Anchor Text Optimization Optimization here.

Keywords within the Anchor Text Optimization are equally useful from links pointing to your website. If you are pursuing or considering a link building campaign, put some serious thought in writing multiple options of the title and description of the link pointing to your website.
The "title" which is usually used as the hyper-linked text, should contain your important keywords. It is good to work with ten different options of title and description as it not only gives you more room to play with several keywords, but it also helps search engines give you a wider keyword coverage.
When soliciting external links, it is better to provide your own "cut and paste" HTML code. Webmasters like it when a ready to paste HTML code is available for them to use, to provide a link to your website.
Links from external sites help your site to gain relevance for keywords mentioned in the Anchor Text Optimization which boosts your site's ranking. As the number of such inbound links increase, so will your site's ranking in SERPs.
Anchor Text Optimization therefore comes on top of the checklist in your SEO initiatives.

Update meta tags and blog post url

2007-09-26T10:35:00.000+05:30

Having a blog is not important, maintaining and managing your blog, and getting good traffic creates matter. If you use blogger like I do, you should update your Meta tags once in a month. I know sometimes we feel lazy and just let it as it is... I agree that a search engine does not consider Meta keywords tag in ranking calculations and it’s never seen by visitors, but don’t forgot the Meta description tag is visible beneath listings in SERPs.

Your title tags plays a vital role when it comes to Search Engine Results Page (SERPs) so insert some targeted keyword in title tags. It is true that Google does rank dynamic urls as long as you don’t have too many parameters and your parameters don’t look like session variables.

Keyword specific domains and sub domains rank high in search engine algorithm. Search engines look for keywords because of this the keyword in the url suggests that the site contents are related to the keyword. Even visitors like to click the link that contains relevant keywords when they look search results. If suppose you have chosen some other keyword, like I used my name in my blog url so we have other option like BLOG POST URL. Just keep in mind and ensure that keywords should appear in each and every post.

I find some tricks to get good organic search result.

Under Settings -> Archiving, if you have selected “Yes” to “Enable Post Pages”, each of your posts will have a unique web page. Blogger automatically generates the Post URL based on the Title of the Post. The title follows a fixed format:-

http://blogname.blogspot.com/2007/09/post-title.html

There is a limit to the number of characters in the URL. Let's assume you have written a Post about Optimising your website or blog and happily called it “How to optimize your blog and website in easy and seo friendly way.”

Once the Post is published, the Post URL may look like this:-

http://blogname.blogspot.com/2007/09/how-to-optimize-your-blog-and-website-in-easy-and-seo-friendly-way.html

Based on what we said about SEO, you may get hits from people who want to find out about optimising a website. This is vastly different from your intended visitor profile. One way to get around it is to give the Blog Post a Title that contains the necessary keywords. For instance, name it “Seo Friendly Website and Tips.” Publish your Post and the Post URL will be something like:-

http://blogname.blogspot.com/2007/09/seo-friendly-website-and-tips.html

After the Post is published, go back to edit the Post and change the title. You can have a fanciful and yet relevant Post Title. Republish your Post. Even though the Title is changed, the Post URL will remain the same. However, the title that appears in the feed and search engine index will be the new edited title. In a way, you have the best of worlds, a title that you like and a Post URL that contains the keywords for search engine optimization.
That and a good backlink campaign is all you need.

Google's New META tag

2007-08-06T17:35:00.000+05:30

It’s great news for all Search Engine Optimizer. Previously I discussed the Webpage removal tool, but that was for dead link/broken link. This is some how same but different with each other.
Got confused..? Will clear..!!!

Google’s a new META tag which allows us to put in the picture, when a page supposed to be removed from the main Google web search results: the aptly named unavailable_after tag.

For example, to specify that an HTML page should be removed from the search results after 3pm Eastern Standard Time on 25th August 2007; simply add the following tag to the first section of the page:

<META NAME="GOOGLEBOT" CONTENT="unavailable_after: 25-Aug-2007 15:00:00 EST">

This META tag is treated as a taking away request: it will take about a day after the removal date passes for the page to disappear from the search results. Google currently only support unavailable_after for Google web search results.

Starting of the post I told you that this update is different from the webpage removal tool because with the help of these tag we can remove the page from the Google web search but cant delete from there system. So for deleting the page we have to go thru Webmaster tool…

I have few doubt about on this update like instead of GoogleBot can we include other search engines name. I hope that option will also presented soon from all Search Engine’s.

2007-07-22T18:03:00.000+05:30

Focus on high quality back links, that mean back links from a high PR site than yours, site related to your blogs/website category, site with no bad neighborhood, check there age, check whether they having spammy title tags.

Now brush up the Meta tags. Don’t repeat keywords, use target relevant keywords. We can write the Meta tags in the settings I mean blogger users. Search Engine Optimization tools is there to search good relevant keywords.

ALT tags are also important so add ALT tags to each and every image but blogger user no need to worry by default it takes the ALT tags. Yesterday I was finding the way to put our own ALT tag title but couldn’t found any solution, so if anybody knows how to insert our own tags in ALT tags (I mean for blogger user) then please comment me.

I have seen people use to keep Blog Roll Links, In my opinion don’t keep blog roll links although if you want to keep then maintain a small list of blog roll.
Work on keyword, check the keyword density this will help you a lot.

Content Management System

2007-06-15T13:46:00.000+05:30

Content Management System (CMS) is a software system used for content management.This includes computer files, image media, audio files, electronic documents and web content.Like you know a standard HTML website is static and fixed. Which means that to change any text and images, the page files that make up the site must be edited then uploaded to the web server. To do this you either have to be a web programmer or you have to hire one.

Here with a content management system, the content within the pages that make up the site is not pre-written into the pages, but pulled from an online database when a user requests a page. You have the ability to alter the content within the database at any time via an easy to use administration interface with your web browser. The logon to your administration uses a secure password therefore no one else can alter your website.

Optimize Your Title Tag

2007-06-12T20:15:00.000+05:30

The title tag is an essential part of a web page and it is a short description of that page, and the most important keywords should go first. All pages should have a title tag and all title tags in your site should be unique. Don't repeat the same title tag for multiple documents. It should be inserted into the header of your web page and it looks like:

HEAD>
TITLE> XYZ Company Home Page TITLE>
HEAD>
(its just an sample, not the exact code)

Since this tag plays a vital role in determining your site's ranking in the SERPs, optimization in each page is necessary and pay a lot of attention to the words that appear in this tag and the order in which they appear. You need to develop a crisply worded title tag that includes your most relevant keyword phrases and performs the function of announcing the summary of your web page's content.

How to Optimize Title Tag ?

It is better to place your service or products in short descriptive sentences (60 characters recommended) in the title tag than your company/domain name. This is because most Internet users search for specific products or services, not company names. But if you strongly feel like placing your company name in your title tag, then place it at the end of this tag.

What is PageRank?

2007-06-11T10:53:00.000+05:30

“PageRank is only one of the methods Google uses to determine a page’s relevance or importance.” [PageRank Explained Correctly]

“Google uses many factors in ranking. Of these, the PageRank algorithm might be the best known. PageRank evaluates two things: how many links there are to a web page from other pages, and the quality of the linking sites. With PageRank, five or six high-quality links from websites such as www.cnn.com and www.nytimes.com would be valued much more highly than twice as many links from less reputable or established sites.” [Google Librarian Central]

“PageRank has only ever been an approximation of the quality of a web page and has never had anything to do with the measuring of the topical relevance of a web page. Topical relevance is measured with link context and on-page factors such as keyword density, title tag, and everything else.” [PageRank: An Essay]
