How To Pick A SEM Agency: Part 1 Search Engine Marketing

When picking a agency to manage your SEM (search engine marketing) you need to take into account more than just if they know Google Adwords. Today there are a multitude of factors that you need to consider to get a complete experience when it comes to your online marketing. We’ll be publishing all of the components that go into your strategy in the order listed below. The first of five part series will focus on SEM itself, but I want to stress that the other four components are very important as you look at a comprehensive strategy for Online Marketing.
Search Engine Marketing
Today Google owns roughly 70% market share, Yahoo 20%, Microsoft 5% and Ask 5%. These numbers constantly change, but your agency should know that a comprehensive strategy encompasses more than just Google. Different search engines produce different conversion rates across different verticals. Your product could work better in Yahoo than Google, so ensure that your agency tests them out to see which performs better.
You also want to see what services are included in your contract. Services vary greatly by agency or consultant. Some are bundled as packages, others claim to do ‘everything’. What you need to ensure is that everything is spelled out ahead of time so that nothing is left to chance. Some basic services include:
  • Keyword Research
  • Account Setup
  • Geotargeting
  • Dayparting
  • Negative Keywords
  • Ad Creation
  • Content Network Research
  • Conversion Tracking Implementation
  • Account Management
  • Reporting
Other services may be more complex, depending on if your agency or consultant needs include integrating with existing APIs, database or inventory management, web analytics tracking, etc. This will need to be discussed with the agency or consultant as to the extent of this involvement.
Paying for an agency or consultant to manage your SEM is still not yet standardized across the industry. Some work on a fixed monthly cost, others on an hourly or retainer basis. The most popular method though is working off a percentage of ad spend. The percentage varies from 8% to 25% depending upon the agency or consultant and the task involved. If your goal is to simply drive the cheapest traffic possible then it obviously requires substantially less time than if you had a product that has a finite quantity and constantly needs to be adjusted. Adding in performance based incentives, setup fees, or working for a mandatory minimum amount of ad spend is another way that some agencies and consultants operate.
Contract length is another topic that deserves some attention. A highly skilled agency or consultant has substantial front loaded time dedicated to properly setting up a segmented account, implementing web analytics, conversion tracking, keyword research, etc. To be fair I would recommend a six month contract. The first 90 days are filled with experimentation. As a client do you want to try bidding on competitor keywords (as long as they are not trademarked)? Do your organic keywords convert better or worse as paid keywords? These are all questions that time needs to resolve. Days 91 – 180 are when you truly get a firm understanding of what your ‘money’ keywords are, and has started to optimize your account.
Certification is something that I have been asked about quite frequently. Do you need to hire someone who is an Google Adwords Certified Professional or a Platinum Yahoo Search Marketing Ambassador? The answer in my opinion is that these certificates are similar to what the IT industry has with certificates. Nice to put in a PowerPoint presentation, but not incredibly indicative of ability or skill. I have these certificates and would say that anyone who reads the Adwords Documentation for eight hours could pass this test. Do you really want to ensure your campaign to someone with eight hours of on paper experience? I once had someone who worked for me fail the test the first try, but who I considered my best SEM analyst.
Now that you have some of the basics use the following checklist if you’re looking for an agency to simply handle SEM. Future posts will outline a more comprehensive strategy which I highly recommend. The basic checklist should look like:
  • Setup a meeting with several vendors
  • Come prepared to explain your product, target cost per acquisition, etc.
  • Request an RFP complete with costs, services, and forecasting
  • Negotiate terms, reporting, consultation, etc.
  • Account should be able to start within one to two weeks of contract signing off
  • After 30 days meetings should be setup to assess progress
  • Continue to actively monitor your progress on a weekly basis
I’ve tried to cover most of the basics, but for the sake of sanity I haven’t went so deep as to be highly confusing for a novice who is just starting out. For further explanation please feel free to comment or contact us.

Are You Tracking Your Social Media Marketing Efforts?

Recently I was engaged on a project for a client evaluating their web analytics efforts including the dashboards that they’ve established as well as a thorough overview of their web analytics implementation. One common thing that I’ve routinely noticed is the lack of tracking of Social Media Marketing efforts. Most companies today are engaged in some type of Social Media Marketing whether it is a cable company and customer service through Twitter, Facebook advertising, groups, etc. or Linked In you can and should be tracking your efforts.
I should preface that not everything is quantifiable but there are specific things that you can do to gain a better understanding of how to allocate your time and marketing dollars. For example this particular company is in e-commerce and focuses on promoting specials and deals that they have on a daily basis through their twitter account. They utilize bit.ly which is a great URL shortening service but could make a simple adjustment to have data flow into their web analytics application, in this case Google Analytics. In this case they could utilize the Google URL Builder and create the following URL as an example:
http://www.amazon.com/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=tweet&utm_content=4-13-10&utm_campaign=123-linksys-router
That condenses down to http://amzn.to/cZPbd2 but when you place it within your tweet will carry over the information pertaining to the product, the date of the deal, the source and other valuable information. You could utilize a similar method by appending a CID or other code in Omniture Site Catalyst. You can then use this to make informed business decisions about which of your Social Media Marketing efforts are really paying dividends and which you could consider re-evaluating the tactic or strategy.  As always please feel free to comment and share how you track your Social Media Marketing efforts within your web analytics applications.

Search Engine Optimization – Ensuring the Best Results for your Business

In last, today every site wants to be featured in the top ten list of the search engine. Therefore, to reach such cliff, you need to understand the algorithm of the search engines and you should implement changes according to the search engines. In order to achieve the benefits of search engine optimization, an effective SEO strategy is necessary. One of the biggest SEO strategies is link popularity, keyword research and website marketing.

Doing the proper research and finding the correct keyword combination will bring you’re the proper rankings in the search engines and a traffic that is targeted to your site, and the added benefit is that it is free traffic. As you heard many time before content is king, your content should be structured to include the keywords that are relevant to your site, and your website needs to be SEO optimized so the search engines can spider it with ease. All the other pages on your site should revolve around a central theme and all be related in some way.

When visitors come to your website the text on the home page should explain and reflect the theme of your site and all of the other pages should relate to it. Search engine optimization or SEO is the hottest way to drive targeted traffic to your website. Your investment in the future of your website will be worth while. The reason you need to optimize your site is to get rankings in the search engines, by concentrating on search phrases and by promoting these keywords you will begin to build your rankings in the search engines.

Billions of sites are updated daily and they all need to be crawled on a daily basis. You can purchase high PR links and shorten the waiting period of getting your site in the serps. Check you site for broken links, not having links that work will have a negative effect on your sites ranking if the links stay broken for a period of time.

High quality articles are quickly snapped up and published prolifically. Every time you write an article and you get it published you receive another link pointing back to your site which will in turn increase your link popularity. Traffic is generated to your website from your signature box. This article can be freely published on a website as long as. With this wonderful innovation in web writing, each article will surely be given ample attention in terms of engine optimization and accessibility. The natural listing depends on the optimization techniques employed on and off the web site. A single article can be reprinted hundreds of times, and each time is another link back to your site. Ensure that each web page of yours would focus on a particular keyword or key phrase. If there is an article in that page, make sure that the article will only discuss and include one keyword or key phrase from the list you have made.

Getting more traffic is pointless if your site isn’t an efficient sales machine. Since there are only a “handful” of search engines that everyone uses (the major ones), this is where we place our best promotional efforts. If you encourage them to link to your site, join your newsletter, read your articles, and so on, then the traffic will increase your search engine popularity. If you only sell product, then that is what you get money for products. Traffic is a must if any online business is to succeed.

Seven Reasons Why You Should Be Using Mozilla Firefox


For several years, Mozilla’s Firefox has been steadily gaining ground on its more established rival Microsoft’s Internet Explorer. Despite the fact that its development is entirely open-sourced, the project has consistently introduced innovative ways to improve the safety and functionality of the browser that you use to surf the internet.
These positive changes have given Mozilla a platform to develop its browser further and its popularity continues to increase. The Firefox browser is downloaded over 500,000 times a day and the project currently enjoys around 12% of the market share. So why should you choose Mozilla Firefox over its more established rival. Quite simply, it is a better browser.
Due to the popularity of the Firefox browser, Microsoft sought to combat this in its latest version of Internet Explorer by including some of Firefox’s innovations such as tabbed browsing, an integrated search engine and a built in pop-up blocker. Nonetheless, Firefox still has many more benefits and Microsoft has as yet not built a browser that matches it.
So here are seven reasons why you should choose Firefox instead of Internet Explorer.
Firefox is a faster browser: Studies show that the internet explorer browser does not load a page quicker then Firefox. The latter uses fewer resources and can be tweaked to make the best use of the computer’s capabilities.
Firefox is a safer browser: Despite the many improvements made in the latest version of Internet Explorer (version 7), there are still many security issues related to the browser. Firefox does not use Active X, which can easily be manipulated to spread viruses and spyware. Although Firefox is not completely safe, its track record demonstrates that its developers consider browser security as paramount.
Firefox makes it easier to manage downloads: The Firefox download manager is great because not only does it organize the download information in a single place but you can also pause the download and start it again at a later convenient time.
Firefox is fully customizable: Because Firefox is open source, the browser is capable of being completely flexible. You can change the theme of the browser, design and attach plug-ins that you choose and you can block images. The plug-ins available are great. You can add spell checkers, translators and many other useful applications.
Firefox enables you to clear your data easily: Unlike Internet Explorer, the Firefox browser allows you to easily delete all of your private data by pressing one single button. Alternatively, the Internet Explorer browser requires you to manual select cookies, temporary internet files and history in order to clear the data. If you have been using the browser for a long period without clearing it then this can be a cumbersome task.
Firefox gives you comprehensive page data: There is a cool tool built in to Mozilla Firefox that allows you to bring up the data about the current website that you are visiting. You can visit the links that are present, the date the page was last modified and other interesting information. Firefox will also allow you to view the source code for the website. This is great for web developers.
Firefox allows you to block images: Should you visit a site that has lots of images on it, for example adverts then Firefox allows you to block any images specific to that site. This is great as it improves the speed that it takes for the website to load. Internet Explorer does not have this functionality.

Top 50 SEO Tips and Tricks for Beginners

About a year and a half ago I was helping a friend learn the fundamental basics of SEO as he was transitioning from Marketing to being a professional photographer. I created the following checklist of tips and tricks for beginners who are interested in SEO that I thought I would share once more. Please keep in mind that this has not been updated to include ‘newer’ ideas in SEO such as distributing internal linking to craft link flow, but it does serve as a starting point that will allow anyone new to SEO to at least get a head start when it comes to optimizing their sites for SEO.
This checklist is segmented into Keyword Research, Link Building, On Page Optimization, Off Page Optimization, and Miscellaneous factors that make up some of the core areas to focus on when it comes to SEO. In upcoming posts on this blog I’ll be posting an updated guide with some more advanced tips focusing around linking, both internal and external. If you have any questions related to these items please comment below or contact me.
Site Architecture
1. Utilize search engine friendly URL links which have hyphens instead of underscores, dynamic or session URLs which often confuse crawlers.
2. Rewrite dynamic URLs via htaccess into URL friendly ones.
3. Use robots to control access to which pages crawlers analyze and index. Restrict robots from “print” html pages for example to control duplicate content issues.
4. Put each domain on a separate IP address. Sharing IP addresses with other sites that could potentially be spamming or using black hat techniques isn’t smart, and at $3-5 a month for a unique IP it’s worth it.
5. If you’re running Linux as your web hosting server then read about creating an htaccess file to avoid canonicalization.
6. If you’re running Windows as your web hosting server then learn about how to do the equivalent of htaccess.
7. Invest in quality web hosting service. Most sites aren’t setup to handle the incoming traffic from hitting the top of Digg but you should be able to handle a steadily increasing amount of traffic from your SEO efforts. If your site goes down and the search engines try to index the site you will be penalized, and the results can be dramatic.
8. Validate your HTML to W3C standards. Although there is no evidence that this is required Google it provides a clean experience to visitors.
9. Keep the number of trailing slashes to less than four to avoid crawling and other issues. If you have a blog just the post name is optimal, the date and other information is unnecessary.
10. When considering launching a new site consider purchasing a domain name that has been registered for quite some time. This avoids any perils of the “Google Sandbox” as well as having the advantage of already having established back links, and other SEO benefits.
11. If no domain names are available that suit your company consider purchasing a domain name that has your specific keywords in it. Limit the hyphens to a maximum of two.
12. When creating pages ensure that no page is beyond two pages from the home page. This helps ensure that your pages will become indexed.
13. Check for dead/broken links in Google Webmaster tools, and then utilize a 301 redirect to the correct location or to the home page to clean up that aspect.
14. Register your domain name for the maximum amount of time. This instills trust among the search engines that you don’t have a one year hosting plan and then you’re done. This is a cheap solution, and lets them know that you plan to be around for a long time.
15. Ensure that outgoing links from your site are going to quality on topic sites Linking to poker/porn/Viagra, etc sites from a health site for example will hurt not help you.
 Keyword Research
1. Determine the keywords that you would like to target by doing some research at Google Adwords or alternatives such as Wordtracker or Keyword Discovery.
2. Place your keywords in your body text. Don’t worry about keyword density as much as making it functional for both the user while targeting your specific keywords for the search engines.
3. Use keywords in the H1, H2, and H3 tags that are relevant to your site.
4. Place your targeted keywords in the page URL, separated by a dash between keywords.
5. Target keywords above and beyond just the ones with the most traffic. Misspellings, alternative words, and lower traffic keywords could potentially still are lucrative by driving targeted traffic to your site.
On Page Optimization
1. Add a unique title to each page that targets your specific keywords. Typically this occurs with having your targeted keywords followed by – company name. If your brand is strong enough you can switch this around and have your company first.
2. Add a unique Meta description to each page that again targets your specific keywords. This is limited to 160 characters in Google, 165 in Yahoo, and slightly over 200 for MSN. Make the description unique for each page so that you don’t fall into any duplicate content issues.
3. Add a unique Meta keyword tag for each page that only lists keywords that are relevant and appear on the page. Although Meta keyword is not used by Google it still may have limited importance for Yahoo.
4. Make sure that all images have alt tags associated with them to ensure that your site is accessible for everyone.
5. Develop content that is unique and different for all pages. Having similar content on multiple pages could throw up duplicate content filters and your pages could go supplemental.
Link Building
1. Download WebCEO and submit your site to the various search engines and directories through the automatic process.
2. Download DigiXMAS and semi-auto submit your site to several hundred directories.
3. Don’t worry about incoming directory links, and whether you are submitting too quickly. You will be denied from some, others will take months to approve you, and the resulting links will appear natural.
4. Submit your site to DMOZ. Although DMOZ has had problems recently it is still a highly trusted source, and is the premier free directory to submit your site to. It may take months or even years to get added but it is still worth the 10 minutes to submit to.
5. Pay to submit your site to Yahoo directory. Along with DMOZ Yahoo directory is one of the most trusted directories out there. The $299 fee is nominal and instills trust among Yahoo and the other search engines.
6. Create “link bait” content for submission to the social websites such as Digg, Reddit, etc. Getting an article to the top of a social website can result in thousands of additional back links almost overnight.
7. Manual link building is a highly effective way to increase your rankings in the SERPs. Use WebCEO to find link partners who are related to your respective field, and would be willing to link to you.
8. Often times the best links are the links that your competitors have. Go to Yahoo and type in “link:www.competitor.com” and look for links that they have that you should look into.
9. Edu and Gov links are typically more respected and trusted than Com links as they have built up thousands of back links, produce quality content, and are unlikely to engage in questionable techniques. If you can get these links get them.
10. If you want to buy links do so in a manner that is not obvious. Purchase links from relevant sites and don’t publish details in forums or other locations which could be seen.
11. When linking out or posting links surround the link with text so that it does not appear to be a generic links page, and instead flows nicely with relevant information.
12. Post your link in forums that you frequent with the anchor text that you are targeting.
13. Comment on blogs, again with the same anchor text and link that you’re targeting.
14. Although Wikipedia utilizes “NOFOLLOW” attributes on links adding your relevant links to Wikipedia can generate a significant amount of targeted traffic to your website.
15. Create a Squidoo lens to generate back links as well as hopefully generate traffic to your website.
Miscellaneous
1. Create a sitemap of your site using GSite Crawler or a free online sitemap tool like XML-Sitemaps
2. Submit your site Google Webmaster Tools, and then verify it.
3. Inside Google Webmaster Tools choose Preferred Domain and pick www.yoursite.com or yoursite.com to avoid canonicalization issues.
4. Submit your site to Yahoo! Site Explorer and Microsoft Webmaster Tools, then verify them.
5. Download Firefox and then head over to SEOBook to download Aaron Wall’s SEO Tools for Firefox. This neat utility allows you to check back links, Edu links, Wikipedia entries, cache date, and other SEO info that is crucial for analyzing data.
6. Use page analysis to look at the anchor text of incoming links to your site to analyze what is working, how spread out your anchors are, and how to solidify under a few anchor texts if possible.
7. Develop articles that visitors may want to link to. Interviews with industry leaders and others are a quick way to develop links.
8. Submit your article to article submission services only after your article has been indexed by the search engines to avoid any duplicate filters.
9. Ignore Page Rank. Although it may be important to those who aren’t as familiar to the SEO process it does not determine your rankings, and is only updated visually every 3-4 months. Actual Page Rank is constantly being updated by Google on a daily basis.
10. Ignore Alexa data. Alexa is calculated by users who install their toolbar and is thus a very narrow segment of the population. Companies who browse their own sites with the toolbar thus rank unnaturally high in Alexa.

Backlinks: SEO Tips Explained

Backlinks.

1. Cloaking
AƖѕο known аѕ “stealth”, cloaking іѕ a technique tһаt involves serving one set οf information tο known search engine spiders wһіƖе ԁіѕрƖауіחɡ a different set οf information οח documents viewed bу clients. WһіƖе tһеrе аrе unique situations іח wһісһ tһе υѕе οf cloaking mіɡһt bе considered ethical іח tһе day-tο-day practice οf SEO, cloaking іѕ never required. Tһіѕ іѕ especially trυе аftеr tһе Jagger algorithm update аt Google, wһісһ uses document аחԁ link histories аѕ іmрοrtаחt ranking factors.
2. IP Delivery
IP delivery іѕ a simple form οf cloaking іח wһісһ a unique set οf information іѕ served based οח tһе IP number tһе info-query originated frοm. IP addresses known tο bе search engine based аrе served one set οf information wһіƖе unrecognized IP addresses, (assumed tο bе live-visitors) аrе served another.
3. Leader Pages
Leader pages аrе a series οf similar documents each designed tο meet requirements οf different search engine algorithms. Tһіѕ іѕ one οf tһе original SEO tricks dating back tο tһе earliest days οf search wһеח tһеrе wеrе аƖmοѕt a dozen leading search engines sorting less tһаח a billion documents. It іѕ considered spam bу tһе major search engines аѕ tһеу see multiple incidents οf wһаt іѕ virtually tһе same document. Aside frοm tһаt, tһе technique іѕ חο longer practical аѕ search engines consider a far wider range οf factors tһаח tһе arrangement οr density οf keywords found іח unique documents.
4. Mini-Site Networks
Designed tο exploit a critical vulnerability іח early versions οf Google’s PageRank algorithm, mini-site networks wеrе very much Ɩіkе leader pages except tһеу tended tο bе much bіɡɡеr. Tһе establishment οf a mini-site network involved tһе creation οf several topic οr product related sites аƖƖ linking back tο a central sales site. Each mini-site wουƖԁ һаνе іtѕ οwח keyword enriched URL аחԁ bе designed tο meet specific requirements οf each major search engine. Oftеח tһеу сουƖԁ bе enlarged bу adding information frοm leader pages. Bу weaving webs οf links between mini-sites, аח artificial link-density wаѕ сrеаtеԁ tһаt сουƖԁ heavily influence Google’s perception οf tһе importance οf tһе main site.
Iח tһе summer οf 2004, Google penalized several prominent SEO аחԁ SEM firms fοr using tһіѕ technique bу banning tһеіr entire client lists.
5. Link Farms
Link farms emerged аѕ free-fοr-аƖƖ link depositories wһеח webmasters learned һοw heavily incoming links influenced Google. Google, іח turn, quickly devalued аחԁ eventually eliminated tһе PR value іt assigned tο pages wіtһ аח inordinate collection οr number οf links. Nevertheless, link farms persist аѕ uninformed webmasters аחԁ unethical SEO firms continue tο υѕе tһеm.
6. Blog аחԁ/οr Forum spam
Blogs аחԁ forums аrе аmаᴢіחɡ аחԁ essential communication technologies, both οf wһісһ аrе used heavily іח tһе daily conduct οf ουr business. Aѕ wіtһ οtһеr Internet based media, blogs аחԁ forum posts аrе easily аחԁ οftеח proliferated. Iח ѕοmе cases, blogs аחԁ сеrtаіח forums аƖѕο һаνе established high PR values fοr tһеіr documents. Tһеѕе two factors mаkе tһеm targets οf unethical SEOs looking fοr high-PR links back tο tһеіr websites οr those οf tһеіr clients. Google іח particular һаѕ clamped down οח Blog аחԁ Forum abuse.
7. Keyword Stuffing
At one time, search engines wеrе limited tο sorting аחԁ ranking sites based οח tһе number οf keywords found οח those documents. Tһаt limitation led webmasters tο рυt keywords everywhere tһеу possibly сουƖԁ. Wһеח Google emerged аחԁ incoming links became a factor, ѕοmе even wеחt аѕ far аѕ using keyword stuffing οf anchor text.
Tһе mοѕt common continuing example οf keyword stuffing саח bе found near tһе bottom οf far tοο many sites іח circulation.
8. Hidden Text
It іѕ аmаᴢіחɡ tһаt ѕοmе webmasters аחԁ SEOs continue tο υѕе hidden text аѕ a technique bυt, аѕ evidenced bу tһе number οf sites wе find іt οח, a lot οf folks still υѕе іt. Tһеу shouldn’t.
Tһеrе аrе two types οf hidden text. Tһе first іѕ text tһаt іѕ coloured tһе same shade аѕ tһе background thus rendering іt invisible tο human visitors bυt חοt tο search spiders. Tһе second іѕ text tһаt іѕ hidden behind images οr under document layers. Search engines tend tο dislike both forms аחԁ һаνе bееח known tο devalue documents containing incidents οf hidden text.
9. Useless Meta Tags
Mοѕt meta tags аrе absolutely useless. Tһе unethical раrt іѕ tһаt ѕοmе SEO firms actually charge fοr tһе creation аחԁ insertion οf meta tags. Iח ѕοmе cases, tһеrе seems tο bе a meta tag fοr virtually еνеrу possible factor bυt fοr tһе mοѕt раrt аrе חοt considered bу search spiders.
StepForth οחƖу uses tһе description аחԁ keywords meta tags (though wе аrе dubious аbουt tһе actual value οf tһе keywords tag), along wіtһ relevant robots.txt files. AƖƖ οtһеr identifying οr clarifying information ѕһουƖԁ bе visible οח a contact page οr included іח tһе footers οf each page.
10. Misuse οf Directories
Directories, unlike οtһеr search indexes, tend tο bе sorted bу human hands. Search engines traditionally gave links frοm directories a bit οf extra weight bу considering tһеm links frοm trusted authorities. A practice οf spamming directories emerged аѕ ѕοmе SEOs аחԁ webmasters hunted fοr valuable links tο improve tһеіr rankings. Search engines һаνе ѕіחсе tended tο devalue links frοm mοѕt directories. Sοmе SEOs continue tο charge directory submission fees.
11. Hidden Tags
Tһеrе аrе a number οf different sorts οf tags used bу search browsers οr website designers tο perform a variety οf functions such аѕ comment tags, style tags, alt tags, noframes tags, аחԁ http-equiv tags. Fοr example, tһе “alt tag” іѕ used bу site-readers fοr tһе blind tο describe visual images. Inserting keywords іחtο tһеѕе tags wаѕ a technique used bу a number SEOs іח previous years. Though ѕοmе continue tο improperly υѕе tһеѕе tags, tһе practice overall appears tο bе receding.
12. Organic Site Submissions
One οf tһе mοѕt unethical things a service-based business саח ԁο іѕ tο charge clients fοr a service tһеу don’t really need. Charging fοr, οr even claiming submissions tο tһе major search engines аrе аח example. Search engine spiders аrе ѕο advanced tһеу חο longer require site submission tο find information. Search engine spiders find חеw documents bу following links. Site submission services οr SEO firms tһаt charge clients a single penny fοr submission tο Google, Yahoo, MSN οr Aѕk Jeeves, аrе radically аחԁ unethically overcharging those clients.
13. Email spam
Placing a URL inside a “call-tο-action” email continues tο bе a widely used type οf search marketing spam. Wіtһ tһе advent οf desktop search appliances, email spam һаѕ actually increased. StepForth ԁοеѕ חοt υѕе email tο promote уουr website іח аחу way.
14. Redirect spam
Tһеrе аrе several ways tο υѕе tһе redirect function tο fool a search engine οr even hijack traffic destined fοr another website! Whether tһе method used іѕ a 301, a 302, a 402, a meta refresh οr a java-script, tһе еחԁ result іѕ search engine spam.
15. Misuse οf Web 2.0 Formats (ie Wiki, social networking аחԁ social tagging)
Aח emerging form οf SEO spam іѕ found іח tһе misuse οf user-input media formats such аѕ Wikipedia. Lіkе blog comment spamming, tһе instant live-tο-web nature οf Web 2.0 formats provide аח open range fοr SEO spam technicians. Many οf tһеѕе exploits mіɡһt even find short-term success though іt іѕ οחƖу a matter οf time before measures аrе taken tο devalue tһе efforts.
Search engine optimization spam continues tο bе a problem fοr tһе SEO industry аѕ іt tries tο mονе past tһе perceptions οf mainstream advertisers. Wһеח under-ethical techniques аrе used, trust (tһе basis οf аƖƖ business) іѕ abused аחԁ tһе efforts οf tһе SEO/SEM industry аrе called іחtο qυеѕtіοח. Fortunately, Google’s חеw algorithm appears tο bе οח tһе cutting edge οf SEO spam detection аחԁ prevention. Lеt’s hope 2006 іѕ tһе year tһе entire SEO industry goes οח a spam-free diet.

Tһе links generated through such services аrе subject tο editorial review. Three Way Linking Three way linking іѕ a special type οf reciprocal linking. Tһе attempt οf tһіѕ link building method іѕ tο сrеаtе more “natural” links іח tһе eyes οf search engines. Tһе value οf links bу three-way linking саח tһеח bе better tһаח normal reciprocal links, wһісһ аrе usually done between two domains. One-Way Linking One-way link іѕ a term used аmοחɡ SEO Philipines consultants fοr link building methods.
