The Most Effective Ways to Rank an Authority Website the Google Way
This post is a guest post by Darrell
You want page one rankings, right? Well, of course you do. You have probably heard the term in real estate, location is everything. Well, the same thing holds true for the internet. Page 1 is where the best real estate is for making money online. The only problem for most people, is how do you actually get that prime piece of real estate? Grab a cup of coffee, as I reveal some important information on building a mega site.
How Much Money You Can Expect to Make?
One of the first questions that pops into your mind when starting an online business venture is how much you can expect to make. That is a very right question that should be one of the main factors to decide whether you should start a particular project or not. As you gain experience that’s how you plan a project to begin with.
But I want to direct this post more to the beginners. When you have never done any business online, you don’t know what to expect. Will you make $1 per month or $1,000? It is very easy to get overly excited if you stumble upon a get rich quick product, or get discouraged by people who have failed. However, the matter of fact is that people do business online, that’s why we have all these great sites we visit for fun, to buy stuff and spend our time online.
Affiliate Marketing vs Product Creation
You’ll often hear that the easiest way to start making money online is affiliate marketing. Join an affiliate network, pick a few offers, set up a site, put up some banners, reviews, text links, get some traffic and make money!
Sounds simple. You don’t have to create an actual product – you can promote someone’s proven products. You don’t need complicated websites – a simple blog will do the job. You don’t have to deal with clients – there are none. Just make a sale and pocket the money.
I have been on both sides for quite a while since 2005 and it allowed me to see the pros and cons of both, being an affiliate and being a product developer, a vendor. So allow me to compare the two and put things into perspective.
PHP Text Spinner
You know what text/article spinners are and what they are used for. Usually article spinning is used to spin articles and submit “unique” spun copies to different article directories and other websites. But what if you wanted to spin the text automatically on your website?
Is Page Rank Important?
In my last post I’ve been talking about how the nofollow attribute affects the Page Rank flow through your website and to external links. But is Page Rank really important to even pay attention to it? After all, even Google seems to be paying little to no attention to it in their advice to us. The answer, I think, is two fold. It all depends on where you stand as a webmaster.
The PageRank and Nofollow Conundrum
People take SEO too loosely. It is a science in one way or another, there are some rules provided by Google (and other search engines playing a catch up) and the rules are to be followed strictly in order to achieve the right results. And it’s supposed to be a given to follow them, if you want to succeed anyway.
Keyword Match Type in SEO
It’s a given to talk about keyword match types in PPC (especially Adwords), but very few people seem to talk about the meaning of keyword match types in SEO. I want to do exactly that, because it’s just as important. In PPC, manipulating the match types is an important strategy that can save your budget, perfect the CTR and quality score, and even increase the conversions (by focusing on more targeted keywords).
But what does keyword match type have to do with SEO? A random introduction to search engine optimization tells us to look up the traffic numbers in a keyword tool regardless of the match type (it’s broad by default) and use it as a guide. More attention is drawn to the competition, however, even though in SEO we don’t pay per click, we spend long hours optimizing our pages and building links. That’s an investment to be regarded as such!
The 4 Hour Work Week Gone Wrong
Why do people go online to create their own businesses? They all pursue the 4 hour work week, a term coined by Timothy Ferriss in his book of the same name. The idea of working just 4 hours a week to make a living is definitely a good one. To be able to spend all the time with your family, having fun or doing what you like while still being able to put food on the table is every man’s (and woman’s) dream.

Single Best Way to Generate Website Traffic?
How to generate website traffic? Several years ago, there were so called “traffic generators” which were supposed to bring surges of traffic to your website with a push of a button. And the way they did that was to automatically generate thousands of pages for your site which were then supposed to be indexed by search engines and result in traffic from long tail keyword searches. Apparently that worked.
But it doesn’t work now because the search engines got “smarter” and they treat duplicate content differently. But what if those thousands of pages were unique enough for not to be grouped into segments? That’s what I decided to find out.
Cheap Pay Per Click Traffic – How to Get It?
Pay Per Click traffic is one of the most effective ways to get highly targeted visitors to your website. It’s fast and there’s loads of it. The only problem is that it usually costs an arm and leg, especially in Adwords.
And yet I’m sure you’ve heard numerous times all these gurus rambling on how they can get 5-cent clicks even in the most competitive niches, as if they have some unadvertised cheap payment plan. Truth be told, there is no secret payment plan, everything comes down to keywords you bid on. There are in fact cheap keywords in any niche you can possibly think of and you can get them.
