Directories, Meme Trackers & Social Bookmarking

This tip is an oldie but goodie: submit your site to DMOZ and other directories that allow free submissions.

Submit your site to paid directories. Another oldie. Just remember that quality matters.

Create your own topical directory about your field of interest. Obviously link to your own site, deeplinking to important content where possible. Of course, if you make it into a truly useful resource, it will attract links on its own.

Tag related sites on sites like Del.icio.us. When people find the sites you tag to be interesting or timely they may follow the trail back to your site.

If you create something that is of great quality make sure you ask a few friends to tag it for you. If your site gets on the front page of Digg or on the Del.icio.us popular list, hundreds more bloggers will see your site, and potentially link to it.

Look at meme trackers to see what ideas are spreading. If you write about popular spreading ideas with plenty of original content (and link to some of the original resources), your site may get listed as a source on the meme tracker site.

Welcome to the: Effective = Marketing Connection x2

Whether you are just starting your business or are a growing one, our Search Engine Optimization (SEO) marketing team can help you enhance your internet presence to increase your income. We provide one on one coaching that will train you how to increase the effectiveness of your business by teaching you how to use all the necessary internet marketing tools. While we do offer to perform the marketing of your website for you, training can provide you the essentials that will enable you to eliminate the substantial costs in the future.

The key in advertising and successful marketing is always visibility. By implementing proven SEO techniques, your website will climb high on many search engine rankings pages thus increasing your visibility.

SEO TRAINING STEPS:
In order to begin training, we will need to evaluate your website and discuss your goals with you. Our SEO marketing team will then analyze your website to determine its current standings amongst similar websites. We will then provide you with a full report of our findings which will include: Search Engine Ranking, ease of use of actual website, keyword strength, etc.

The report itself will take several hours to complete, but the cost is worth it. Once we know how your website compares to others, we can determine an effective marketing strategy. We will teach you how to incorporate that strategy and to monitor it on a daily basis to ensure prominent ranking status on major search engines such as Google, Yahoo & MSN.

If you choose, we can also teach you how to optimize Pay Per Click (PPC) advertising techniques using such major keyword search engines as Google Adwords & Yahoo Search Marketing. PPC advertising can be a very inexpensive way to generate revenue from your online website, as low as five cents per click. By spending a small amount on those key phrases relevant to your target market, you will quickly begin to ensure more users go to your website for the services/products you offer.
