Simple SEO: How To Create Content The Search Engines Will Like
Improved search positioning means greater exposure to targeted traffic, but few E-Biz owners really understand how to run an effective search engine optimization (SEO) campaign. According to Andy Jenkins, founder of online business forum http://StomperNet.com, “Your web site ranking is determined, in large part, by the quality of your content – it must be both compelling to your visitors and consumable to the search engine spiders.”
A Matter of Substance
Jenkins reveals two key practices that can help you cooperate with the search engines and give them the kind of useful information they’re after:
Avoid Duplicate Content
When pages living on separate domains are extremely similar, the engines will classify them as “duplicate content” and rank them very poorly. One page will go in their normal index; the other will be relegated to their supplemental index, where none its value is manifested. This often poses a problem for eCommerce stores selling numerous similar items.
Every page of your web site probably has some design elements that are the same, like your navigation bar, header and footer, and any special messages, like “In Stock” or “Money Back Guarantee”. To keep from ending up in the supplemental index, you should strive to have at least more original content in your product descriptions than exists in the permanent template layout of your pages. In other words, if you have two hundred fifty words of repeating content on each page, you should also have at least two hundred fifty-one words per page of new and different content.
If writing interesting, witty descriptions of your products seems difficult, it may help to try manifesting your copy in some form of ownership. For instance, if you’re selling a box of tortellini, talk about how simple it is to cook, how good it tastes with pesto sauce, how wonderful it is to enjoy with your family around the dinner table. You’re simultaneously engaging your customers, sharing the benefits of using your product, and avoiding the mire of the supplemental index.
Implement Latent Semantic Indexing
Search engine algorithms have grown increasingly complex over time. Optimizing your copy is no longer a matter of stuffing it with keywords: “This pasta site is the best pasta site for the pasta lover’s pasta needs.” Now, in fact, repeating a keyword or phrase too often will raise red flags, and may even cause your site to drop in the rankings.
The engines have learned to recognize the relationships between many words. So to rank well for a keyword, you need to talk about things that relate to it, also know as “latent semantic indexing”. For example, if you’re trying to rank for the keyword “pasta”, you might talk about carbs, marinara sauce, fusilli, linguini, and so forth. It’s okay to sprinkle “pasta” throughout your copy, but concentrate on using latently related words. You’re generating copy that’s interesting to the users reading it, and palatable to the engines ranking it.
(Tip: To discover keywords latently related to your keywords, perform a Google search with a tilde in front of the keyword – like “~pasta”. You’ll bring back results containing latently related words: noodles, recipes, Italian, etc.)
While the search engines regularly revise their algorithms, the basic principles of SEO remain the same. You don’t need to play games or try to trick the engines to show up in their results. Advises Jenkins, “The engines want to give users the information they’re seeking. So if you create a user-friendly site with good, valuable content, you’re going to do well – period.”

Handy Tips For Designing A Good Website
Techno geeks would claim that designing a website is as easy as 1-2-3 with all the available software and programs. With just a few clicks on the computer a website will be “born”. And if it is true that the success of an online business largely depends on the design of the website, why then do some online business fail? Something must be amiss with the design of the website.
Practicing good design principles is a must if you want to have a website that will reach out to potential customer as well as yield the desired sales. The web abounds with graphics and a web designer might be tempted to enhance the appearance of the website by using so many graphics and images. However it is not advisable to load the page with so many pictures as this would slow down the loading of the page. Most internet surfers who uses dial up connections would surely leave a slow loading page and click on the next link. If you really think that a picture is essential to the website it is advisable to use image editing programs. Pictures that will be featured should have a relevance to the content of the website. A picture of your favorite pet would be inappropriate for a website dedicated to dental services.
Another important factor to be considered in web design is to know the target audience. The font used as well as the layout should cater to the prospective audience. The design of the site should have a relevance to the purpose of the website. For example, if the website will sell dog food, it wouldn’t do to incorporate flashy model cars. If the target users of the website belong to the senior group, using the smaller fonts favored by the young generation is not advisable since the senior readers would need to make font modification in their own computers just to read the content of the website.
The page layout is equally important in web design. The front page will serve as the “face” of the business and as such should be able to provide the visitors with information regarding the company and the services and products it offers. The page should be clean and uncluttered with many unnecessary images and bouncing animations. The color of the text should be complimentary to the color of the background for easy reading. It is a known fact that glaring and vibrant colors as well as rotating and bouncing animations could distract readers. And readers who leave the site would mean lost sales.
Easy navigation should be a feature of a company website who wants to achieve marketing success. Nothing is more frustrating to a visitor than a site where the navigation bar is hidden by so many other features. It is comparable to finding a sock from a mound of clothes.
Content of a website should be clear and concise. Surfers are “lazy” individuals and they won’t have the patience to read overly long paragraphs especially if it lacks substance. Keeping it sweet and simple is very appropriate for the content of a website who aims to attract loads of traffic in order to generate more revenues.

Blogging for Bucks
A blog is a website used to present written entries in reverse chronological order. The term itself is a shortening of the original words used to describe these websites, which was "web log." Blogging has become an extremely prevalent means of expression on the Internet, and it's also become a moneymaker for entrepreneurial bloggers.
Blogs are generally presented primarily in text form, though they may also use images, video, and audio files. Generally the person who writes the entries, known as the blogger, chooses a subject of interest and writes entries surrounding that topic. Common topics among bloggers are food, politics, and news items.
Early blogs were nothing more than online diaries. The people who used them basically kept an online account of their lives. At the time, they usually called themselves diarists or journalers. The entries appeared on websites that were manually updated as new entries were created.
However, today, bloggers enjoy the use of software that has made the process much easier. Some common software programs in use are WordPress, Movable Type, and LiveJournal. Bloggers may also choose to utilize the services of web hosting services. With the advent of software and services, blogging has become accessible to even the most novice of Internet users.
Blogging has become so popular that in May 2007, the blog search engine Technorati reported the existence of more than 71 million blogs. Having started as online diaries, blogging has since evolved into not only a form of expression, but also as a way to make money on the Internet.
Some companies are now paying individuals to blog in a way that boosts the buzz about their new products and services. They may pay the blogger a set fee for the entry, a commission for any sales made as a result of the blog, or a combination of the two.
In addition to direct payment from companies, some bloggers use their sites as a place to post paid advertisements for businesses. Successful bloggers can make a significant amount of money in this manner. The key to success in this manner is to create an interesting blog that attracts many visitors each day.
Fortunately, blogging can really be an enjoyable way to make some extra cash. The first step, and probably the most important step, is to choose a topic that will appeal to a large number of people. In addition, the topic has to appeal to you. If you don't enjoy discussing the topic, you're not likely to update your blog very often and when you do, you won't have fun doing it.
When you choose a topic, think about what your passions are in life. Perhaps you have a particular hobby that lots of people are interested in. Maybe you're an avid fisherman, create fabulous scrapbooks, or possess a great deal of knowledge about a certain topic. Then, consider which of those passions will be most likely to interest other people and provide fodder for a number of entries.
Once you've gotten your blog up and running, you can participate in the affiliate programs of companies that will pay you for placing an advertisement on your blog site. Because most affiliate programs pay a fee for each time an individual clicks on their ad, it is a good idea to look for companies whose products and services are in some way related to your topic. For example, if you write a blog about dogs, you might look for companies that sell pet products.
There are a number of resources available on the Internet that can help you get started blogging and using your blog to make money. Before purchasing any products or services for learning about blogging or setting up a blog, be sure to do some research. Look for companies or individuals with a good reputation on the Internet and beware of claims promising overnight success.
A blog takes work and it will take time to attract visitors. However, there are great rewards to be had in blogging, not the least of which is sharing interesting information and networking with your peers.
Author of this article is James Angell. He would recommend "Carbon Copy Profits" as a very good resource to help anyone get started blogging to make money. I personally prefer the free ebooks offered entitled "Blog Link Generator and Blob in a Box" to become successful at this. Just click on www.easywayincome.com
