A Common Adwords Mistake Can Cost You Money
Aug 11th
A very common mistake with Google Adwords campaigns can wind up costing you money. Discover what the mistake is and why it’s a problem. Learn what you can do to protect yourself.
Beginners should stay away from the Content Network in Google Adwords. When you are just starting out, disable the content network in your PPC campaigns.
Why? The content network is all the websites that belong to Google’s Adsense program. While Google is trustworthy, not all of it’s Adsense participants are. Some Adsense websites attempt blatant fraud. Just do a search for those who got banned from Adsense. In most all cases folks were banned for cheating Adwords advertisers by clicking ads.
Many other Adsense participants make every attempt to trick visitors into clicking your ad. Google doesn’t ban Adsense participants for just being sneaky, Google really only bans fraud. But, sneaky traffic is not going to get you any return for your Adwords spending. For example, two years ago, the hot thing to do on Adsense was place a graphic over the Adsense ad. The graphic was usually in no way related to ad. But, this made the visitor believe the graphic was related to the ad. When the visitor clicked the ad, he or she wound up on your website which had nothing to do with the graphic. In most cases, the visitor is immediately left your website, wasting your money.
Many website exist where Adsense participants make ads look like navigation, attempt to blend ads with content and other tactics to confuse or trick visitors into clicking ads. Adsense publishers are always looking for the next gimmick to increase their Adsense clicks. How motivated is a consumer going to be if they were tricked to your website? The traffic generated by Adsense publishers is of low value.
A basic level content network traffic is less targeted. Google search traffic consists of a consumer actively searching for keywords. Content network traffic consists of consumer browsing other websites and stumbling across your ads.
Unfortunately, as an Adwords advertiser this is all at your expense. Now you know why the content network traffic is low quality, so go turn it off.
At intermediate and advanced levels you can use the content network. Placement targeting allows you to display ads on specific websites. If you choose respectable website, you can get good quality traffic.
You can also choose use the content network as is. Adwords allows you to separate search network bids and content network bids. When you enable the content network, enable separate bids as well. Never pay more than 10 cents a click for the content network.
Did you know that when Google separated bids for the search and content networks it ended the Adsense gold rush? Back in 2005, Google allowed Adwords advertisers to separate bids. Previously, an Adwords advertiser got only one bid for both. Highly competitive markets forced higher bids. Adsense publishers would target high payout keyword in the hopes of making a dollar or two a click. Since the change, even highly competitive keywords pay much less on the content network.
Are you over paying for your Adwords campaigns? Have you experienced any of the following problems using Google Adwords?
There is a solution to all of these problems. Slash your Adwords costs in half and get more traffic with the free Adwords Strategy Guide. Get your copy now.
Common Link Building Myths Debunked
Aug 6th
Link exchanges are dead
Although reciprocal links do not provide as much authority as one-way links, link exchanges should still be a big part of your link building campaign. But remember that links from sites with similar topics as yours are more valuable than links from completely unrelated sites.
All directories are bad
Yes, standard directories do not really provide much value in a link building campaign. But that does not mean you should ignore directories completely. I have had quite a bit of success in using article directories as part of client’s link building campaigns.
Link building is easy
I hate when I hear people saying that link building is easy. Sure, there are parts that can be simple and tedious. But I have trained a few people on link building and it is definitely not something can be learned in just a few weeks.
It’s easy for a site to rank in the search engine results
The only way to easily get a site to rank in the search engines is if you setup a pay per click campaign. Getting a site to rank in the organic results can take months or even years. I always tell clients to remember that traffic from the free search engine results is a long-term investment.
You can trust reciprocal link partners
When you agree to exchange links with some one always make sure to request an email once your links has been added. It’s also a good idea to browse through your link exchange partners regularly and remove any sites that no longer display you link.
Anchor text doesn’t matter
The keywords that appear in the link can sometimes be more important then the link itself. Don’t be afraid to email sites that display your link to request a change of the anchor text. Any site owner who knows about search engine optimization will gladly change the text.
Site maps are a waste of time
You should always have a site map that the search engines can easily find and index. Otherwise the search engine may never crawl deep enough into your site to find all of the pages. I usually recommend that client’s put a link to their site map at the bottom of every page so that the search engines give it additional attention.

Common Web Design Myths
May 30th
The power of the World Wide Web to liberate people, by providing information and services in a way best suited to them, is immense. The Web can make activities like shopping, finding out the latest news, education and communication, much easier for all of us. However, there are many myths surrounding accessible and credible web design – following points aim to dispel some of them.
(1) Use of maximum colors will help in making the site beautiful
Pleasing website design is important to attract a web visitor, but a website design need not be a rainbow. Research proves that myriad of colors may spoil the outlook of website. Also there are chances of these web visitors getting irritated with the use of too many colors. So the website designer should always use the colors that go well with the theme and purpose of the website.
(2) Adding too much graphics is helpful
It is true that graphics will make communication easier, but over use of graphics may make it difficult. The page carrying heavy graphics takes lot of time to load. Web design which is spun around simple and easily loading graphics is always loved by the visitor.
(3) Flash is necessary to add attractiveness to the website
Flash is extensively used to create advertisement banners and animations during website design. Flash banners can serve their desired purpose only if they are used efficiently and frugally. As these flash banners may add believability to particular web design, but they have many disadvantages as well. Flash banners can be easily downloaded only if you are connected to high speed connection. Web designer should remember that not all people have flash pluggins installed in their computer so people may lose their patience if they are asked to download pluggins first to view your site. So web developer should provide the option of non-flash version along with the flash version, which allows the web visitor to browse through the information.
(4) Website will look same in all browsers
Even after designing some successful websites many web developers love to believe that the website will look same everywhere as it appears on their PC. However in reality, different website browsers perceive HTML pages in different manner. So website developer should always make sure that the website is optimized with web standards adopted by different browsers.
Also the web resolution varies from PC to PC. Some may prefer to view the website in 1024 X 768 resolutions whereas some may view the website in 800 X 600 resolutions. Most of the web visitors love to view the website in 800 X 600 resolutions, so the web designer should ensure that the website looks good even in that resolution.
So, breaking a few myths, it’s time to enter the real and fascinating world of Website Designing.

The importance of web traffic must be given a huge concern and attention. Here are the lists of frequent error that the web owner usually committed.

• Raiding the pages and other websites. It is important for the web designer to know how important links are. Most of the time, there are web designers who rob icons from other websites and use it for their own purpose. The web designers should have a unique idea of their own. Search engines are very powerful in detecting the websites that have the same icon content. It is very important in order to prevent the sites from being out listed in the main search engines.
• There are webmasters and designers who use the keywords that are not connected to their websites. One thing that they should do is to maintain websites that have protocol. The unconnected topics and keywords must be removed. Remember search engines are smart, it can consider the page as spam and be automatically eliminated from the list.
• Having stuffed keywords. There are websites that have a multiple graphic description. Stuffed keywords can make the websites layered and appeared awkward to the search engines. If the search engines detected the website parameter that contains massive amount of keywords and graphics, the search engine can consider the site as spam.
• There are websites that relies on the hidden text. The keywords should not be hidden or invisible. There are clever designers who hide keywords by making it appears as the same color with the site background.
• False presumption about search engines. There are web designers who presume that all search engines has the same category that plays the same functions and roles. Make it a point to learn about the appropriate requirements of each search engine.
• As much as possible don’t use free web hosting. One of the basic significance of web hosting is to have a promising increase on search engine ranking.

Mar 25th
If you wish to be a successful Internet marketer you will want to avoid these 8 mistakes:
1. Failure to prepare properly. Many Internet marketers are simply lazy and will not make the effort to prepare properly. Refrain from being overly anxious as if you’ll miss the boat if you do not market your website immediately. Use however many days it takes to setup all the appropriate advertising accounts and advertisements properly. This will make your administration more efficient and enable you to fly through your schedule tasks effortlessly each day. The net result is that your marketing efforts will be far more productive than if you were to take a haphazard approach.
2. Failure to implement an advertising strategy. You must have a plan with well defined goals if you wish to have positive marketing results. Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Do not try to recreate the wheel. Find out what successful people are doing and do the same. Regarding goals, write them down. When you achieve a goal mark it as “completed” and replace it with another. By doing this very simple step you can monitor your effectiveness and progress.
3. Failure to be professional. Some of the ads on the Internet are of embarrassingly poor quality. Be professional in your business approach and in the design of your ads. If you lack the ability to produce professional ads then find a resource that can. The quality of your website and advertisements is a reflection on you. Also, when dealing with customers always be courteous and professional even when they are not. If you are professional you will shine above the rest and earn customer confidence.
4. Failure to implement and adhere to a disciplined schedule. If you don’t have a realistic schedule in place then you will not be disciplined in marketing your ads properly. Consistency not volume is the key to success in marketing on the Internet. A schedule allows you to be consistent and also forces you to be disciplined. The Internet is not a “get rich quick” environment. It takes hours of dedicated and consistent work. You must be committed to putting in the time if you wish to have good marketing results.
5. Failure to utilize the right tools. There are some very innovative tools on the Internet to make the operation of your business more efficient. Many of them are very affordable and they will save you from having great frustration. Some marketers take the approach of being a “penny wise and a pound foolish.” In saving their pennies they are losing out on making the bigger dollars. Don’t ignore the many tools which are available.
6. Failure to build a downline. Your downline is the cornerstone of your business. A downline is your customer list or they can be referrals that join certain advetising programs through you serving as an affiliate. Verious advertising sites offer you some type of compensation for bringing them referrals. Don’t ignore the value of these referrals. Some Internet marketers are so anxious to advertise their product they fail to have an understanding of the bigger picture. A big downline can save you money in your advertising and enbable you to advertise more effectively. When soliciting always get the email address of your customer for future solicitations and sales.
7. Failure to track ads. Much time is wasted on unproductive sites and ads. If you’re not tracking them you will continually work in ignorance. You must have a measure of what is working and what is not. Is the program that you are participating in yielding the desired results? Are your ads well written and effective in drawing customers? You will never have the answers to these important questions unless you track your ads. You can waste a great deal of time on poor advertising programs and bad ads if you never track the results.
8. Failure to understand the advertising medium. You must understand how each type of advertising program works if you’re going to be an effective marketer. Whether you use pay-per-click advertising or membership driven sites like safelists, traffic exchanges and text ad exchanges all have their own personality. Not only do you need to understand the mechanics of each but also the general personality of their membership.
