kabonfootprint and wordpress.com

I’m taking part in a seo challenge called – kabonfootprint, my kabonfootprint contest site was inicialy hosted at wordpress.com with my own domain. One day my blog was closed because of the seo challenge. It’s OK for me, but there are hundreds more blogs made only for this contest and they are still hosted here. That’s not fare for me. There is another seo contest now – the busby seo challenge, there are many blogs here at WP that are also here only for the contest, but they are still active.

Clifinar SEO Seminar & SEO Tips & Tricks

In the last few weeks the internet has been filling up with a strange and interesting phenomenon. Had you searched the keyword Clifinar in any of the major search engines: Google, Yahoo and MSN, you would have received a blank page. But now, just 3 weeks later, you can see 10,700 results in Google, 5,550 results in MSN Live and in Yahoo! there are 33,200 results.

This is the work of just 20 individuals who are fighting for the number 1 position on Google’s search engine by the 10th of June 2008. The Clifinar Contest was born in order to put into practice what Clifton teaches in Clifinar SEO Seminars.

SEO is a tricky business. One day you’re up there and the next, you’re not. The traffic that comes from position 1 is equivalent to money. It’s a gamble and you cannot rest for one minute. You can never know for sure what your competitors are doing and how much of it they are doing. However, if you keep your eyes and ears open, you will continuously learn new ways of optimizing your website for search engines. In the Clifinar we are taught new creative ways to keep our clients in top positions on even the most competitive keywords.

So, you have a website, that’s great, but how are you going to get visitors to it? You need to get search engines to index your site so that it will appear on the search engine result pages when someone searches for a keyword relevant to your website. But it isn’t enough just to be indexed, you need to be the first 2 or 3 pages of the search engine to actually get any traffic. Ideally you should be on the first page in one of the top positions.

As taught in the Clifinar, the first important SEO activity is to make your website search engine friendly. That means that the structure of the site should contain Meta tags. Meta tags are placed at the head part of the html page and should contain the keyword you are trying to promote on your web page. You should have a meta title, Description and short list of keywords. Your meta tags should be readable by humans and don’t stuff them with keywords. Remember that the keywords you have chosen need to appear in the text of the page as well.

We’ve all heard that “Content is king”. But what does that mean? These days it isn’t enough that you have content on your website you need to have content about your particular subject all over the internet. That means you should spread your relevant content on article sites, PR sites, Blogs, Social networking sites, wikipedia, wikihow and other sites that allow you to build information pages with links. Don’t forget, all the content must be original.

This brings us to the next important SEO activity: linking. Linking is important because it shows the search engines that other people on other websites like your site and are recommending it. The websites you get links from affect the strength of your link. The best sites you can get links from are .edu, .gov and .org sites because they are usually regarded to be of high quality by search engines, but they are also the most difficult to get links from. It’s also good when your link comes from a website that has content that is relevant to your website’s but check the popularity of the site, the Google page rank and the quality of the site. When you ask for a link, make sure you get a link on a keyword that is important to you and not just a url or “click here”.

Directory submissions are another important SEO activity. There are free and paid online directories which supply links to your website. You should create links from both free and paid directories.

There are many other SEO activities that you can do and on the internet, if you are intent on getting the word out there, find out about SEO from forums, blogs and websites that provide information about the subject. And of course, attending conferences and Clifinar will help as well.

How To Get A Top Ranking

When you’re trying to get ranks into the top 10 of the search engines and more especially into the top spot, you’ll need as many relevant links back to your site as you can possibly get.

When the search engines determine in what order to rank websites, they do this based on the content of the site as well as links pointing back to the site and also the internal structure of the links within the site. All of these factors come into play when determining what order the search engines assign to websites for keywords.

Of course this algorithm is much more complicated than I’ve described here, but getting your website submitted to directories is a great way to acquire some of those ever important links.

I’ve seen costs associated with a service like this for as much as $1 per directory, so for a list of 300 directories, you may pay as much as $300. If you look into some places online that offer this service, you may see this for as little as $100 or so for 1000 directories.

I usually analyze this as a cost benefit situation and also take into consideration the time value of money when I choose what makes sense as far as expenses.

I’ve timed about how long it takes me to submit to 5 directories and it is right around 4-5 minutes per directory, so in about 20 minutes, I’ll have about 4-5 directories done.

If I’m going for 300 directories, even at a speed of 10 directories every 20 minutes or about 30 per hour, I’m still looking at about 10 hours of my time for 300 directories.

Take this into consideration, but if you want to get started seeing about how long this would take, consider a directory of directories that lists directories by page rank. The website I’m talking about is addurl.nu and can be accessed online.

There are several instances where you’ll be able to simply do search on Google or Yahoo and come up with a lot of directories to list to and if or when possible, get your website listed in directories that are specific to your niche.

If you are attempting to get a website for “mountain biking” ranked in the search engines, ideally you’ll search for and find “biking” directories or even mountain biking directories that will link back to your site. This is important as the search engines, especially Google reward relevancy. The more relevant or related the pages are that link to your content, the more value those links are assigned and the easier it will be to get your website high rankings for the search terms you’re going for. As much as it might have some value, I wouldn’t be nearly as focused on getting my mountain biking website listed in a wood-working directory for example.

Directories are an excellent way to get links back to your site and wherever it makes sense from a time-value-of-money perspective, you should be outsourcing this work. Many reputable sources will do this work for you for less than $100. Good luck and go get those rankings!
