8 Common SEO Mistakes You Should Avoid

 

Getting your website found by the search engines requires basic optimization or SEO for short.  When your site is properly optimized you will see substantial improvement in traffic to your site and ultimately more sales.

8 common, typical mistakes to avoid in properly optimizing your website are discussed below.

1 -  Using too many images for headings and menus.  Using text for headings and menus helps search engines more easily discover whatever they are looking for.  Although images may make your site look good, keep in mind that search engines cannot read images.  Because of the inability of the search engines to read  your images, having too many images has a zero effect on improved rankings.

2 - Backlink Spamming.  Create backlinks from relevant and authentic sites such as article directories.  Avoid getting backlinks from link farms, hidden links, certain link wheels, etc.  These can have a huge negative effect on your site and may even cause your website to be delisted by Google and the major search engines.  Using too much interlinking, especially from non-relevant sites, is considered backlink spamming.

3 - Bad Selection of Keywords.  When you select keywords make sure that you do not select highly unique or highly popular keywords.  If you use unique keywords (keep keywords relevant) you may find yourself at the top of the rankings but probably not any relevant customers.  If you use highly popular keywords you will face stiff competition from sites that are already at the top of the rankings.  For example, as of this writing, I did a google search for the keyword phrase 'make money online'.  A popular keyword phrase.  That search produced 556,000,000 results in about 0.20 seconds.  Stiff competition wouldn't you say.

4 - Ignoring Title Tags.  Using keywords in the title tags will definitely improve your site's SEO.  Search engines can find relevant keywords in the very beginning, which make it easier and faster.

5 - Failing to provide sitemap.  Often when you make JavaScript menus and do not provide sitemaps your site fails to make an impact on the search engines.  Search engines cannot read JavaScript menus.  Use sitemaps to enable crawling and indexing.

6 - Not providing HTML version.  If you have designed a website only in Flash then it becomes difficult for the viewers with a slower connection to download it.  Similarly, it becomes even more difficult for the search engine spiders to crawl.  Search engines ignore such sites.  Make sure you provide a HTML version for your website.

7 - Too much focus on MetaTags.  Many experts feel that meta tags are fast becoming obsolete, so avoid putting too much focus on them.

8 - Avoid tiny and fancy fonts.  Using FrontPage is not advisable.  There is a possibility that the output may be poorly crafted and may not even be compatible with all browsers.  Though a small spelling mistake may create attention and get visitors, this undermines the quality of your website.  Your links should never contain any spelling or  grammatical errors.

You should regularly update your site and keep the content fresh.  After all, free website visitors is an online marketers dream.  Proper SEO is vital.

5 Ways To Determine If Your Online Home Business Is Any Good

 

How do you know if your online home business is any good? An online business is a great way to make a supplementary income but if you're doing it wrong it will cost you more than you make. The internet provides many opportunities for entrepreneurs, but if you want to generate an online income from home, it does involve more than putting a website up onto the internet, having a few random products for sale and hoping that somebody will buy them.

1. You're Generating Traffic.

You can't make an online income from home if you don't have any traffic coming to your website. Your online traffic is comprised of the people who visit your website. If no one goes to your website, no one will buy from you and you won't be able to earn online an income from home. To generate traffic you can use free traffic or paid traffic strategies.

2. Are You Building A List?

This is the list of email addresses of potential and actual customers who have given you their permission to send them emails about your products and services. Your list is built as result of the traffic that you send to your lead capture pages that may be connected to or separate from your website.

3. You're Offering Something Of Value For Free.

When someone goes to your website, to get their email address you have to provide them something of value in return. This could be a free report, a video tutorial or a newsletter. Don't forget that what you give away for free is an indicator of the value offered by your online business. If you give away something that is useless, it will reflect back on what prospective customers think about your business overall.

4. You're Selling The Right Products To The Right People.

There is an old but true saying that says he who tries to sell to everyone, sells to no-one. You have to clearly know who your target customer is and what products or services you can provide that solve a problem for them or make their lives easier.

5. Are You Willing To Learn?

It is surprising how many people dive in head first to the online business world without any direction or idea if they are doing anything right. To succeed online, you need to learn from those who have gone before you and who can help you to avoid the pitfalls so that you make money online and not lose money online.

The Top 5 Pros And Cons Of A Home Based Business

The internet has made it much quicker and easier to start businesses working from home. An online business can operate 24/7 and have customers from all over the world.

There is an almost infinite number of products and services available to sell online and lots of different customers who are ready to buy them.

A work from home business can bring in a helpful second income to supplement your regular day job. Many people actually start this way and discover that they can generate a very comfortable income working from home full time, working the hours that they want without having to answer to a boss.

The 5 'Cons' For Starting A Work From Home Business.

1. You Do Have To Put In The Work.

Despite the fact that the internet does make things quicker and easier, a home based business does require work more than pressing a few buttons on your laptop or computer every now and then.

There is no such thing as a push button, get rich quick business. Just like any business, a work from home business takes time to build and become profitable.

It can be very demotivating if you are working hard to make your home based business a success and other people, even if they mean well, are dampening your efforts with their negativity. To avoid this, keep your business separate from your home life and join online groups or forums with like-minded entrepreneurs.

5 Things That Nobody Told You About Starting An Internet Business

 

Although many entrepreneurs enjoy success with their online business there are also a number who fail. One of the main reasons why people fail online is that they jump in head first thinking that it is an quick way to get rich. Here are 5 factors about setting up an internet business that you may not know.

1. You Need To Work Hard.

Starting an online business and turning it into a success does require time, effort and resources. It is a real business and if you treat it like a hobby, it will become a very costly and frustrating one. Be prepared to work hard to achieve your goals. It involves a lot more than pushing a couple of buttons on your laptop or computer for a few minutes each day.

2. It Takes Time To Get Results.

People who want to make loads of money as quickly as possible are normally the ones who get discouraged and give up when things don't go their way. Developing a solid online reputation, getting your website noticed by the search engine and building a customer base generally takes a lot longer than people expect.

3. Some Folks Will Tell You You're Wasting Your Time.

You will come across people who are cynical about setting up an internet business. They choose to ignore the fact that the internet is a flourishing business environment and that it is possible to generate a legitimate income online. Don't let less people undermine your efforts. Become a member of an online community of similar entrepreneurs for your business advice and support.

4. You'll Most Likely Have Information Overload At Some Point.

When starting an online business there can seem to be a never ending set of tasks to do. Once your website is set up, you have to find the right products and the right customers to buy them. There is a whole range of free and paid marketing strategies that you can use and sometimes it can become mind-boggling and you can have a total information overload. Take one step at a time, become proficient at one thing then move onto the next. You do not have to do everything at once.

5. Everything Will Not always Go To Plan.

You must never expect everything to be easy and recognize that sometimes things don't go according to plan on the first try. But don't look at these problems as failure. Look at them as a learning process. You now realize what went wrong so that you can avoid it happening again in the future. Every entrepreneur faces set backs at one stage or another with their online business and you have to be willing to accept these unexpected challenges as part of your ongoing business venture.

Here's some of the best MLM Advice I've ever received (from my mentors) in the industry.

 

1. The company you join. The sponsor you pick. The system you use. None of that really matters. You are the X factor. You can succeed or fail in ANY company.

2. This business is a numbers game, but it's also a game of skill and strategy. The better your skills and strategy the fewer people you need to approach.

3. WHEN you join a company is even more important than the company you join. Timing is everything. Ideally, you want to join a company BEFORE it becomes a household name. That is where the BIG money is made.

4. You'll probably have to recruit 100 people to find 1 serious person, and maybe more than that.

5. The real money comes from building DEPTH in your organization, not width. Width is for show, but depth is for dough. Learn how to taproot and drive each leg hundreds of levels deep. A leg is not solid or established until you have MINIMUM 5-10 leaders in it.

6. No two leaders build their business the exact same way. Smart leaders leverage their own natural talents and abilities to build the business in a way that works for them.

7. We are a business of attrition. 80 to 90 percent of your team will quit each year, regardless of what you do to help them. Even with those types of numbers, you can still build a big team and a big residual income.

8. Customers and part-timers come and go like the common cold, but we are really looking for leaders. Leaders find customers, recruit reps, create volume, and grow your check. They also require the least amount of help.

9. Success is not about selling a product or one person doing a lot. Network marketing is about getting a LOT of people to do a few simple things consistently, for a sustained period of time.

10. It takes MINIMUM three to five YEARS of intense focus in ONE company to build a six figure residual income (in most cases). Top earners do not promote multiple deals, nor do they chase shiny objects. They focus on one company exclusively.

11. Most top leaders have been with one company for 5-10 years. They've sponsored 100+ reps personally and they make most of their income from just 1-2 people.

12. All the time you spend with weak, non-committed people is time wasted. You would be better off spending that time to recruit new people. You won't hit the next rank with the same team. Keep recruiting. Never stop recruiting personally.

13. You get paid based upon the number of people you serve and how well you serve them. The person that "serves" the most, and does it the best, makes the most (and rightfully so).

14. This is a team sport. No one succeeds by themselves. Surround yourself with ambitious, talented people. Ideally, you want people more motivated and talented than you. Whatever you do, do not be JEALOUS or ENVIOUS of someone on your team who is more successful in the business than you. If anything, be their biggest cheerleader.

15. You cannot control what anyone else does, so don't worry about it. Focus on what you do. Focus on what you can control. Set the bar so high with your own personal example so even if your team does 10 percent of what you do, you'd be happy.

16. Third party tools are the secret. Remove yourself from the equation whenever possible. Talk less. Don't do your own presentations. Instead, share videos and audios. Leverage three way calls. Even if you are an expert at these things, your prospect isn't. Plus, your prospect thinks they will have to build the business the same way you do, so keep things simple.

17. Don't be short sighted. Many of your best people will take you YEARS to recruit. Keep a database of everyone you ever talk with and stay in touch often. The average person will need minimum 7 to 20 follow ups before they buy or join.

18. Success in our industry is about long-term focus, not short-term opportunism. No company or sponsor is perfect. Pick the company you want to have your problems with and plant your flag there.

19. Use the products. Find a few customers. Teach others to do the same. That's how you build a big business.

I look forward to hearing from you. Don't let this opportunity pass you by.

Are You Setting the Right Goals For Your Work From Home Business?

 

There is a lot more to an online home business that just a website and the hope that somebody may buy something from you. Your main objective might be to make money or allow yourself more time at home but if you don't know what you will do with that money or time you cannot put any mark on whether you are achieving any success. To make sure that your online home business achieves what you want it to achieve, take a moment to answer these 5 questions.

1. Do You Have Specific And Realistic Goals?

You have to make sure that your online home business goals are realistic and specific. You may want to make millions in a couple of months but that is not realistic. When you have set a realistic goal, you will need to work backwards to create a plan of action so that you can achieve that goal.

2. Have You Made A Plan That Will Work?

Once you create the schedule for yourself to reach each goal that you've set, you need to truly consider how representative it is of reality. Let's say your goal is to send an email 3 times a week to your subscriber base that are useful and valuable to them. But, if you haven't set aside the time needed to research, write and send the 3 emails you won't achieve your objective because there will always be something else to do.

3. Are You Willing To Learn From Failure?

Setting up and running a work from home business will have its ups and downs. If you are not willing to learn from the mistakes you make, you will be more inclined to give up. Learn from the failure and change the schedule to be more realistic and achievable.

4 .Do You Have Too Many Goals?

Just as setting too few goals for your online home business can be a problem, so can setting too many. If you set too many goals at once, you might get overwhelmed and achieve none. You can add more goals as time goes on. You don't need to do know how to do everything today.

5. Do Your Goals Include Everything?

If your goals just focus on your work from home business and nothing else it will effect other areas of your life. Don't forget why you started a home business in the first place. If it was to spend to more time at home with your family, don't ignore your family in the process of making your business a success. If you create a highly profitable online home business but your personal life suffers, then no matter how successful it is, you will not feel successful.
