Did you love Adwords Analyzer? I loved it to bits, despite it’s sub hundred dollar price. My adword campaigns simply skyrocketed with the software!

Now for those too cheap to buy that software, check out the Adsense Finder. The AdSense Finder is yet another Adwords application designed to garner you get more pay-per-click (PPC) traffic for your website with diminished PPC cost and explode your return on investment (ROI) from all your Google AdWords advertising campaigns.

Recently, Google introduced a new system called “site placement targeting” allowing AdWords advertisers to place their ads only on the sites they like to promote. The good thing about site placement targeting is you can capture highly targeted audience with minimal competition. However, digging a list of relevant and large traffic sites to market on can be time-consuming. AdSense Finder rose to solve this problem.

This software has a potent mission: to automatically seek out quality sites that run Adsense, on the exact topics that you want. It then roots the traffic details of these sites and offers you a list that you enter into your campaign so can start advertising on them for a fraction of what the search network costs. Darned easy if you ask me!

The AdSense Finder is free to download and use. The download link to this software is here. Enjoy maximum returns on your marketing budget today!

I got two good friends. Can’t name who they are coz they’d kick my ass giving out details. Both retired their day jobs. Both live off the internet now. Let’s call one Mr. White and the other Mr. Black.

Now both of them run online businesses of a similar nature. They’re seduction gurus and good ones at that.

Mr. White maintains a cool seduction portal. It’s got lots of pages with unique content, and a moderately active forum. Funny thing is, his site had been at PR2 for over a year. He has few backlinks and ranks 50 to 100 for his desired keywords.

Mr. Black also maintains a seduction site- but his web has only a blog and a few info products for sale. His site had reached PR4, has 5000 backlinks and ranks 10- 20 for the same keywords Mr. White aspires for.

Turns out Mr. Black had been spamming blogs leaving cute comments on thousands of blogs with the employ of a few nice Indians he hired. Gosh! And here I thought google punished spammers!

Could it be that Google simply spends all its resources punishing link sellers like text-link-ads.com instead of going for the more annoying spammers??

I love blogging but there are days that I have nothing much to say. It’s frustrating. You see, I like to behold a new post on my blogs everyday. On days that there are zero posts, I feel incomplete. Must be the OC in me, eh?

Just this morning, a friend directed me to a cool piece of software that solves my woes. The software automatically plugs in relevant content into my site using RSS- and it’s perfectly allowed by Google and the other search engines. Have no fear: you won’t be banned.

The software is Carp Evolution.

The software comes in two flavors, free and commercial. The latter came with so many more enhancements and customizability for just $29. Compared with competitors I researched, like RSS Equalizer ($97) and RSS Content Builder ($77), that was a steal!

With an easy install script, I was good to go. I simply plugged in the code to pages of my site and wham! I was serving up fresh content. Just like that!

The default layout was clean and simple. For most of you fellas, this would be dandy. But Im a stickler for perfection so I modded the code a bit and the RSS feeds soon looked like hand-coded entries.

I was in tears at the beauty of it.

Boys. Do download the free version of Carp and tell me what you think.

Be bold. Use the tags around some of your keywords on each page. Do NOT use them everywhere the keyword appears. Once or twice is plenty.

Deep linking. Make sure you have links coming in to as many pages as possible. What does it tell a search engine when other web sites are linking to different pages on your site? That you obviously have lots of worthwhile content. What does it tell a search engine that all your links are coming in to the home page? That you have a shallow site of little value, or that your links were generated by automation rather than by the value of your site. Here is an example of deep linking, in this case to my personal happiness workbook.

Become a foreigner. Canada and the UK have many directories for websites of companies based in those countries. Can you get a business address in one of those countries?

Newsletters. Offer articles to ezine publishers that archive their ezines. The links stay live often for many years in their archives.

First come, first served. If you must have image links in your navigation bar, include also text links. However, make sure the text links show up first in the source code, because search engine robots will follow the first link they find to any particular page. They won’t follow additional links to the same page. You can see this in action at the link to the home page on this web site monitoring page

Multiple domains. If you have several topics that could each support their own website, it might be worth having multiple domains. Why? First, search engines usually list only one page per domain for any given search, and you might warrant two. Second, directories usually accept only home pages, so you can get more directory listings this way. Why not a site dedicated to gumbo pudding pops?

Article exchanges. You’ve heard of link exchanges, useless as they generally are. Article exchanges are like link exchanges, only much more useful. You publish someone else’s article on the history of pudding pops with a link back to their site. They publish your article on the top ten pudding pop flavors in Viet Nam, with a link back to your site. You both have content. You both get high quality links. (More on high quality links in other tips.)

Titles for links. Links can get titles, too. Not only does this help visually impaired surfers know where you are sending them, but some search engines figure this into their relevancy for a page.

Not anchor text. Don’t overdo the anchor text. You don’t want all your inbound links looking the same, because that looks like automation - something Google frowns upon. Use your URL sometimes, your company name other times, “Gumbo Pudding Pop” occasionally, “Get gumbo pudding pops” as well, “Gumbo-flavored pudding pops” some other times, etc.

Site map. A big site needs a site map, which should be linked to from every page on the site. This will help the search engine robots find every page with just two clicks. A small site needs a site map, too. It’s called the navigation bar. See how the second navigation bar at the bottom of Last Minute Florida Villas is like a mini-site map?

The SEO Writer

I subscribed to multiple SEO, internet marketing and online business tips sites. Think shoemoney.com and johnchow.com. It’s because of these guys that this site makes a nifty package of money.

Now this morning, I got tired reading the same serious articles and browsed for alternatives. I landed on PageRank0. After reading through a few pages, I can’t still tell whether they were serious or what. I guarantee this, though: it’s one hilarious site.

Search Engine Jokers or Experts

The lifeblood of every website is traffic. Now we all know traffic doesn’t come just out of the blue. You get visitors when you have a healthy deposit in the link bank account.

So how to do you get more links? This email from a friend contains some pretty nifty ideas for link mining:

Become an Authority

1. Make your content easy to understand so many people can understand and spread your message. (It’s an accessibility thing.)

2. Put some effort in to minimize grammatical or spelling errors, especially if you need authoritative people like librarians to link to your site.

3. Have an easily accessible privacy policy and about section so your site seems more trustworthy. Including a picture of yourself may also help build your authority.

Use PPC Strategies

4. Buy relevant traffic with a pay per click campaign. Relevant traffic will get your site more visitors and brand exposure. When people come to your site, regardless of the channel in which they found it, there is a possibility that they will link to you.

News Syndication

5. Syndicate an article at EzineArticles, GoArticles, iSnare, etc. The great thing about good article sites is that their article pages actually rank highly and send highly qualified traffic.

6. Submit an article to industry news site. Have an SEO site? Write an article and submit to WebProNews. Have a site about BLANK? Submit to BLANKinformationalsite.com.

7. Syndicate a press release. Take the time to make it GOOD (compelling, newsworthy). Email it to some handpicked journalists and bloggers. Personalize the email message. For good measure, submit it to PRWeb, PRLeap, etc.

8. Track who picks up your articles or press releases. Offer them exclusive news or content.

9. Trade articles with other webmasters.

10. Email a few friends when you have important relevant news asking them for their feedback and/or if they would mind referencing it if they find your information useful.

11. Write about, and link to, companies with “in the news” pages. They link back to stories and blog posts which cover their developments. This is obviously easiest if you have a news section or blog. Do a Google search for [your industry + "in the news"].

12. Perform surveys and studies that make people feel important. If you can make other people feel important they will help do your marketing for you for free. Salary.com did a study on how underpaid mothers were, and they got many high quality links.

Want to explore the underbelly of your site? Try these SEO cutting tools on for size:

1. Google Analytics

Obsessive compulsive? Google analytics helps let you discern who’s visiting your site, when they’re coming in, how long they’re staying- and if they’re throwing cash your way. Don’t start the day without snooping on visitor trends- it helps tailor your marketing spiel to their needs

2. NetMechanic Toolbox

You may not realize that poor spelling and slow loading pages are driving your visitors away. Uncover bottlenecks to your bottomline by running this tool on your site.

3. Keyword Suggestion Tool

You may be ranking number one for the search term “schizophrenic disorders in Dallas”- but how many paying clients will find you on that search term? Use the keyword suggestion tool to find profitable and actionable keywords that funnel in revenues.

4. Iwebtool

Long held as the Swiss Army Knife of web tools, Iwebtool brings to you an array of ranking, SEO and optimization applets that reveal the dirtiest secrets of any website.

One of my websites had 30,000 pages three months ago. Only 200 were indexed so my local webguy recommended http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/ to generate a sitemap that helps google find all pages of the site.

I tried the service- yeah its free- but theres a catch: the service does only 500 pages max. That left 29500 pages unaccounted for.

Thank god for webmaster forums because I eventually discovered GsiteCrawler. Unlike XML-Sitemaps which creates your maps online (and have to wait bfor days), Gsitecrawler is a download which you install. Fire it up, input your URL and in 3 hours, a 30,000 page site is fully sitemapped!

Last I checked, Google Webmaster tools reports 33,928 pages of my site indexed! Now that’s absolutely terrific!
