Choosing a Domain Name For SEO Recognition

This Article was published by myself prior to the Christmas Break on Ezine Articles, Choosing a domain name

How to choose a domain name is not as straight forward as you would think, there are 1000’s of domain names being used, that have no bearing on what the site owner is planning to market, whether that be a service or a product.

For example SCS is a well known soft furnishing company, based in the UK and there website is SCS.co.uk, this domain name just does not jump off the page and say, “sofas for sale”, that is because the company was founded before the onset of the internet marketing, so although they have a website, it would be quite difficult around the name, so their marketing effort are centered elsewhere, no-one could have imagined how big, internet marketing would become.

On the contrary choosing a domain name for the one of the largest toy distributers in the world, ToysRus, was easy as there website is, yes, you guessed it ToysRus.com. This alone has helped it become a global phenomenon in the market of selling toys, and therefore there internet marketing strategy is much easier than the example with the sofas above.

So what is my point? if you can obtain a domain name that contains your primary keyword phrase, then that would give you the best chance of obtaining a good ranking, in the search engines, which in real terms would mean you are on Oxford street in London rather than a back street in Manchester, more traffic equates to more revenue.

If you are unable to achieve the primary keyword phrase as 1 word, then try splitting it and use hyphens, this will do no harm from an SEO point of view, apart from the obvious that if someone typing your domain should omit the hyphens, they would end up at your direct competitor, not good!

If you have spent anytime at all building up a business and you have absolutely got to have that domain name, then you could always try contacting the current owner, using the whois registry and request to purchase it from them, assuming they would be prepared to sell it to you, you might find it could cost a premium amount of cash.

But if you are just starting out, then a cheaper alternative, might be your best option.

Franchise Alternatives – What Are They?
By Peter Shuker

Let us consider for a minute, that you have decided to begin a new venture. And the only real possibility of you being able to do that, on a limited budget is to begin down the internet marketing path, or take up with 1 of the many franchises available.

If we were to look at a franchise for example, you would be looking to invest a minimum of $100K, just to get your foot in the door. Does that surprise you?

Sure, you can get cheaper franchises but what you are really doing is swapping 1 day job for another.

There was some research carried out in 2007 and it claimed that 40% of franchisees are earning less than the minimum wage and are working a lot harder for it too, what for, for the privilege of saying you are self employed.

After your initial outlay, you will be expected in most cases, to undergo a training program, a condition of acceptance to their program, so with all that in mind, which business would be more suited to you, as an independent person, starting a new business venture, you guessed it “Internet marketing“.

In most franchise or small businesses, the following adage is true, “You Get What You Pay For”, if you where to invest a $100K in a business, the chances are, you most likely be embarking down a new career path, that would mean a necessity to give up your current day job.

That is where YourNetBiz is different, from both the point of view of training and giving up your day job.

Blog Traffic – Web 2.0 traffic tactics

Sunday, August 23rd, 2009

The blogging phenomenon perfectly integrates in the second generation of web services know as Web 2.0 since this is the most convenient platform for all Internet moves. What is there for bloggers with Web 2.0? First of all, the whole aim of the new web-technology is to facilitate collaboration and sharing between users, on the one hand, and increase the usage rate on the other hand. The next legitimate question that rises here touches on the best ways to attract traffic in the conditions of the transition to blogs that are sources of highly functional content.

First and foremost, we need to say here that with blogs web information is no longer centralized in terms of authority, not to mention that the freedom to use and re-use material is limitless. From a certain point of view blogs become a real market, in which content is the transaction environment. Hence, Web 2.0 traffic tactics mainly gravitate around the optimization of blog articles for advanced search on the search engines. Though it may be very tempting, don’t aim too high from the very beginning, it is almost impossible to get large numbers of visitors form the first blogging days.

The key to getting good traffic is perseverance and service quality. Content has to be re-freshed every week if not more often; in order to make that an easier task, it is enough to change some of the content, even if you don’t replace it all. With the large number of applications available with Web 2.0, you should place a Google search box directly on the site, so that any user may find it comfortable to perform any further search directly from your blog page. What’s there for you? You make the user spend more time on the site and, consequently, you increase the chances of his or her returning to the blog in the future.

People are now more interested in blogs that have RSS feeds; well, you’ll have to let Internet users know that as soon as you can! Initially, graphics were the best means to indicate the presence of an RSS feed; the great advantage now is that you can adjust the very colors used for this attention sign to the theme or topic specific to the blog itself. The system is created in such an easy to use way that all you have to do is insert the text and the color scheme and then a graphic pattern is generated immediately.

Blogs are also used to intergrate links and feedback to generate traffic to all your own personal sites, but you must also remember that you may become dis-heartened, very quickly, if you set-up a new blog and you don’t recieve hundreds of unique visitors within days, you must have patience.
