Off-page Search Engine Optimization-More On Videos

As suggested when we were looking at using articles to promote your business, marketing with videos is a numbers game. The more videos you have published and the more networking sites those videos were featured on, the more traffic you will draw to your web pages.

Therefore, you should not limit yourself to uploading your video to only one networking site, irrespective of the fact that YouTube is (according to Alexa) the third most popular site on the internet. (You’ll find great information here about how to flip websites for profit.)

There are many online video viewers who prefer other sites, and it makes sense to put your video in front of these people as well as those who use YouTube.
Once your video is ready, there are a couple of sites you can use to upload the finished movie to most of the leading video networking sites.

The first resource that you want to look at is offered by TubeMogul, a place where you can mass upload your video to many of the leading network sites completely free. The site also offers many outstanding analytical tools, so it is definitely one that you should be using if youre not doing so already.

As you can see from the screenshot, TubeMogul will distribute your video to most of the leading sites (YouTube and Yahoo Video are missing from this graphic), but it does not serve every major network site. If you want to complete the picture and are willing to spend a little money (and it is very little money) then you should also look at HeySpread because there are few sites that you can distribute your video to from here that are not served by TubeMogul.

Videos are an effective way of promoting your business for free, but the secret is to make as many videos as you can and to have them published in as many places as possible. Also, while it is not necessary to try to publish a Hollywood blockbuster, what youre trying to do by publishing videos is to create one video (or many) that everyone loves. Do this, and a traffic landslide is well on the way to your site! (Learn more about a great way to make money from home by flipping websites.)

Other Methods of Getting Articles Without Writing

There are several ways to producing articles without having to write them yourself. Using a ghostwriter is one way, using private label rights articles you have bought is another option and doing an expert interview is yet a third way to compile article information.

Borrowing another writer’s article for use is yet another way to provide content for readers. Give the original author credit within the body of your article and fill in the rest with quotes from that author’s article. (For more detailed information on how to get backlinks.)

This is a can’t lose situation for everyone. You don’t need to do the writing of your article, the writer who wrote the original article gets free publicity, and the reader gets the information that they want or need. Everybody wins.

Using public domain articles that are related to your subject is yet another way. Permission from the author to use their work isn’t necessary, but letting your reader know where the content originated will keep their trust. Don’t try to pass the words off as your own.

Use survey results from a self-conducted survey as an article. This does mean you’ll have to write a little, but compiling the results and turning it into a fast article isn’t very hard or time-consuming. You can create surveys through Survey Monkey at www.surveymonkey.com .

Use government provided information. Articles written by United States Government Authors are automatically in the public domain. The government is a prolific writer - on a wide variety of topics. Visit any United States Government website, and you will be greatly surprised with the amount of information that is free for the taking. (You’ll find great information here about how to get targeted web traffic for profit.)

As you have seen, providing quality articles without writing a single word, or with just a bit of writing is possible. The information and means is there, use them.

Off-page Search Engine Optimization-Exchanging Traffic

A lot of the time, traffic exchanges get a bad press from most of the people who are actively involved in online marketing. The majority of people who are running a business online have tried traffic exchanges (when they first started out) and found that they didnt do what they hoped. Consequently, most online marketers dont take traffic exchanges seriously.

However, most people fail with traffic exchanges because they do not use them in the correct manner. They make the mistake of trying to sell a product or service using traffic exchanges, ignoring the fact that almost no-one ever buys anything through a program of this nature. (For great information on flipping websites for making money on the internet.)

If on the other hand you adopt a different approach, traffic exchanges can be a very valuable resource for sending visitors to your site and for building your business.

The average traffic exchange program works on the basis that you have to look at someone elses webpage for 15 or 20 seconds, and in return, the traffic exchange you are working with will show your webpage to other members of the site. Hence, a traffic exchange is a very simple way of generating a guaranteed flow of visitors to your site.

However, there is no point in trying to sell something through a traffic exchange. No sane person is ever going to make the decision to buy a product or service in 15 or 20 seconds.

However, if you use a traffic exchange program to present a squeeze page that is attached to your site, then it should be easy to encourage people to sign up for your prospect mailing list. Once people have done this, you can send them product recommendations and suggestions as often as you want and this is the best way of building your business for the long term.

The secret to making this work is giving away a valuable free gift to anyone who subscribes to your mailing list from the traffic exchange program with which you are working. Very few people are going to sign up for your mailing list if all you are offering in return is a subscription to your newsletter, but if you can offer a free gift of value, then many of the people who see your traffic exchange page will subscribe. (For more detailed information on flipping websites as a way to make money on the internet.)

When you register for a traffic exchange, you do so under a particular category that then dictates that you will be shown sites from the same category and your page will be shown to other members who have registered similar interests. Thus, your advertising is targeted.

Giving away software is always a good idea it has value because most people are incapable of creating software and e-books are also a good bet.
Just make sure that whatever it is you are giving away is targeted, and you will generate traffic and add names to your prospect mailing list by using traffic exchanges in this way.

You Are What You Eat

Eat Right. Your Skin Will Thank You.

You know that too much alcohol and smoking can dehydrate and take oxygen away from your skin, risking its health, right? You know that sitting in the sun too long can damage your skin and that by not getting enough rest, relaxation, and exercise your skin can suffer too, don’t you? Did you also know that by not eating the proper foods you could be damaging your skin as well?

Here are some foods that can help you maintain healthy skin and nourish skin that’s been damaged:

Fish, Beans and Oils
Many of you have heard me preach of the vital role essential fatty acids play with aging skin, as EFAs are required to maintain skin elasticity. Denying your body of the ‘good’ fats, such as omega-3 fatty acids, can cause your skin to wrinkle prematurely. Good sources of EFAs in your diet are fish, especially salmon, and nuts like almonds and sunflower seeds. The best sources of EFAs also come in flax seed oil, coconut oil and borage oil, which can be incorporated into your cooking or as a daily supplement. (Interested in weight gain for women?

Vegetables
Got acne? Spinach and other dark green vegetables are antioxidants that can reduce the inflammation of pimples, and orange vegetables such as carrots and peppers, are high in beta-carotene, which turns into Vitamin A in your body to heal damaged skin. Winter vegetables are packed with beta-carotene. I encourage you to stock up on your squash. Your skin will love you for it!

Berries
Blackberries, plums, strawberries, blueberries and prunes are all included in the group of fruits that can help you keep your system toxic-free, and thus help your skin look radiant and healthy! Be sure not to throw out wilted veggies & spent fruit. Simply puree them in your blender, making your own alpha-hydroxy, anti-aging face wash! You really dont need to spend a fortune on high end products when all the sought after ingredients are already in your fridge. Be sure to read on for your free monthly recipe.

Turkey and Chicken (White Meat)
Your skin’s cells cannot be repaired without protein. Don’t or can’t eat meat? Nuts! No, I mean eat nuts for protein. You can also substitute meat with egg whites or soy products to get the protein you need as well.
