67% of Sites are Faster than Twitter.com

2011-01-15T19:23:00.000-08:00

A screenshot from ALEXA.com on speed of twitter.com. Note they say, 67% of sites are faster than twitter.com. I have never ever had any problem with loading of twitter. I do not think that this speed CALCULATIONS are always accurate.... or, something they have to do with AJAX website...

SPEED IS DEFINITELY GOING TO BE ONE OF THE NEXT MOST IMPORTANT SEO ISSUE, AS SPECULATED. So, I was conducting random page speed check before my new project. The result for Google.com (fast) was fairly okay. For twitter.com, it is not at all expected.

I want to KNOW the fastest website in the Internet... Any idea? Is it yours?

THERE ARE A FEW Social Bookmarking Websites in this list, which have already gone away! But I keep those link to show you exactly what I do with my social campaign. Note against each website, I have my small note. I do not really ATTACK all websites with the same link. I take FIVE bookmarking websites to ENRICH (???) on a given day. I write the work RESUME to indicate where I left the list during the previous run. I have an advantage obviously. I blog on so many topics and I have a whole bunch of websites. Plus, I like to share links from other websites. So, my accounts do not look like the loudspeaker of one website or, worse even, a mirror reflecting only one link prominently. You can create multiple accounts in these websites (check their T.O.S., please) to focus at a niche using one account. As such, I find it quite okay to share different topics using a default account.

PLUS remember, before sharing anything, make it sure that it deserves the social attention. Otherwise, it is better to skip promoting such content and to try to write something more useful to share with others.

Did you find the list useful? Why not share it with others? Looking for your feedback.

Thanks.

Ethical Blog Comments

2010-12-10T23:41:00.000-08:00

Blog Comment Services by SEO companies

Have you recently checked offers from various SEO companies? I have seen a few of them have started long ago a special campaign like blog commenting. What they do is simple. They find a list of blogs related to your niche. They visit those blogs and post comments. At the least this is what they claim to do. However, I suspect they may have developed programs to post thousands of comments automatically and endlessly in target blogs. Ethical companies are likely to disclose their policies - like whether they post comments manually or by running scripts. They will charge approximately $1 - $4 per comment depending upon their credibility. As such if you do not have time to network, it is quite legitimate to hire third party services. But you should make it very clear what is your purpose of commenting. Do not let them indulge in blatant spamming as this will definitely ruin your brand reputation. As such, I still prefer to do it of my own and my point of this specialized SEO service is different.

But my point is different: You can see there are companies offering this service and there are people, who actually need it. There are people who agree to spend money to let someone else post comments in blogs on his behalf. But why? Because blog comments work. Not only to deliver traffic but also to establish your brand, to establish your knowledge and authority in your niche. At the least I have found blog commenting pretty useful source of traffic.

How to find the blogs suitable for commenting? While most companies must have a ready to use database of blogs, you may not have one. So, you have to find suitable blogs. First of all, you can consider a custom google search like 'inulr:blogspot.com my-niche' to find blogs related to your niche in blogger.com domain. You can change blogspot.com to any other domain to find blogs in that domain. You can do a search like 'inulr:wordpress.com my-niche' to find related blogs in wordpress.com domains. This has been discussed a lot of time in different places.

Something I find new and very interesting is to find CommentLuv enabled blogs. Simply create a FREE account in ComLuv.com, use their search tool to easily find related blog links, now when you post a comment, your last blogpost will be displayed automatically against your name. This will help other readers of that blog to know what is your latest thought in your niche.

Something even better - DoFollow blogs: It is better to consider blog free from nofollow tag. For those newbies, who might not be aware, nofollow tag was accepted as a standard to avoid blog comment spamming by all major search engines a few years back. Most blogging platforms attach a nofollow tag (My Keyword NO FOLLOWED) with their blog comment section. Search engines ignore nofollow tagged links. So, you do not really gain any link juice when you post comments in different blogs. However, to encourage blog commenting, a lot of bloggers have decided to change the default setting. You can find such blogs in various dofollow blog directory. Otherwise, you can search to find 'DoFollow' blogs in your niche. Posting comments in doFollow blog will help you to gain link juice plus you get some free traffic.

About Comment body: This is something very important. You need to add a value to the blog, which should reflect your expertise. I have seen a 'thank you' type comment does not really deliver traffic back to your website. You need to say something, which people will like and want to know more about you.

Using links in comment body: Most of the bloggers do not really like to see links in the blog comment section. However, I have seen it extremely useful to share related links to a post. This helps the readers of that blog to get more information and adds a value to the blog content. A related link can continue to drive endless streams of traffic to your website. It works. But be extremely careful about the sentiment of the blogger. If you spam too much, chances are that your comments will be deleted. So, be modest and share a link, if it relates to the content.

Set a different purpose: Instead of visiting a blog for sole purpose of self-advocacy it is better to set a different constructive purpose. I visit blogs for self promotion obviously. At the same time I have an intention to learn more about my niche, learn from their blog posts, and blog reactions - what people like or dislike. More importantly, I try to analyse why so many people visit their blogs and not mine? What's wrong with my blog? Content? Frequency of posting? Promotion? You cannot stop reviewing your position until you achieve the desired level of success.

Visit returns: If you visit a blog only once in your lifetime, chances are that nobody will visit your blog ever. So, visit the same set of blogs frequently to show your real interest in your niche. Comment back often, if anyone leaves a comment in your blog.

Acknowledge hard works of others: Blogging is basically for people trying their lot within their personal capacity. So, there is no point in indulging in enmity. Behave socially, acknowledge hard work done by others in your niche, subscribe to their feeds, return a link favor, and do everything to establish your openness. It works like a charm.

Patience is a virtue: And not a vice in Internet marketing. Make a plan for six months. Follow from day one your own commenting plan. I hope you can see the increase in popularity of your blog in no time.

Let's end the ZERO period: That's it what I think. I. As such, I cannot say that I am the one and only internet marketing guru. As such I am just a learner, casual and reluctant, and often irritatingly inconsistent. Still I shared this story because when I see people screaming for not getting any traffic at all or earning ZERO ZERO ZERO in their clickbank account. Thankfully, I have, by the grace of God, crossed that phase of early infancy. Now I think, I know the way to move on. So, I'm very optimistic about my online efforts. And I hope all of us will somehow manage to make a full living forever after.

Looking forward for your comments & feedbacks.

Look Beyond Google

2010-12-10T22:33:00.000-08:00

I know a lot of the website promoters are still looking to depend upon Google juice and a lot other have developed the BAD habit of getting Google traffic. Attention all website promoters. There are more ways to drive legitimate targeted traffic to your website other than Google. So, here is exactly what I did to make a few SALES eventually.

1. Create awesome content:- I know I do not write like an expert writer. Still I can write by grasping the core concept and reproduce it using my own words. I have seen a lengthy articles oftentimes result in a fatigue. People love it and simply move on without taking MUCH DESIRED action. So, keep your articles small. A 300 - 400 words article can actually help you to get into the mind of the readers quickly and drive them to the action. I have also developed habit of avoiding adjectives. As a matter of policy, I try to focus at nouns and verbs.

2. Distribute your content: - This is more important than creating your own content. Let you content be visible by many others in the Internet. Best promotion tools are already listed in the right sidebar. A quick summary should include commenting on relevant blogs (see my post on blog comment policy), social bookmarking (Digg, StumbleUpon and a few other, see my list of social bookmarking websites), and posting in free advertising forums (see my list of free advertising forums). Besides, if you are a part of any social networking websites (You should, and YOU are, I hope), post the link to your profile. I'll say just do not make it a habit to share all of your entries in your social profile. Limit it to a maximum and share the links, which your friends should like and appreciate.

3. Being Social: - This is the most important of all factors. You need to be a social being in online adventure to see any real success. Never ever hesitate to post a comment in a blog you liked, subscribe to its feeds, and favor a link to that post in your own article or blog posts. You must exhibit your openness to say thanks to those, who may have helped you. This way, you can create a reader base for your article. This little extra effort have virtually helped me to get my articles noticed among the forest resulting in a few sales. Even if you are too much obsessed with your website - its design, content etc. etc., there is no point you can stay blind at the hard works done by others in your niche. Start appreciating them. It is just like an exchange of 'hi hallo', if we meet someone already known to us. It really helps to deliver recurring, dependable and Google independent traffic base.

4. Google also watches: - Remember that as you distribute your content in various places around the web, you are forcing content greedy GoogleBot to crawl your pages. And if someone courteously link back to your content, you will start drinking delicious Google juice too!

So, forget not to distribute your content. Just make a legitimate plan not to spam any single website every other day. Distribute your FREE ad campaigns rationally through a pool of websites.

I hope it helps a lot of you as this policy has really helped me.

Thanks.

How BIG Bullies ARE SPAMMING (OR Encouraging SPAMMERS) TO Trap You

2010-07-27T06:41:00.000-07:00

Mails received from noreply@spam-network.com:

Sudhir has invited you to become friends.
Login to your Spam-network account to accept or decline the invitation.

NOTE:
There was no un-subscription option for me. Plus, if you reply to noreply@spam-network.com, chances are that your mail would be bounced back.

And there are folks, who will actually respond to such spam invitation!!!

I have actually received such fake friendship invitations from most of the renowned social networking websites, and unfortunately, I have seen that the account of the invitees did not exist (might have been deleted), or, the invitee does not have any relationship with me.

I am NOT AGAINST SOCIALIZING. Rather, I'm a big fan of online networking. But this is the surest evidence of the fact that mindless spammers are eating up ALL the SOCIAL space fast!

Fortunately, in this case there was really a profile named Sudhir (Male with photo of female), no problem. http://www.spam-network.com/sudhir/userprofile.

And this is the reason I keep both facebook and myspace far ahead than the rest of the junk. They have really responded promptly to protect members against spammers.

Lesson today?
Nothing really. If you have a social website, try to ensure best protection from members and if you allow anyone to invite friends, always include un-subscription link, so that no mailbox get bombarded with false invitations.

Take care.

How Could I Spend My Time So Uselessly?

2010-05-08T07:37:00.000-07:00

The question came in my mind leading to this post.

How could I spend my time so uselessly when everyone suggests to spend time wisely?

Internet promotion is obsessive. LJP said few days ago. And I admit.

I started early this afternoon, revamping all social profiles - facebook, myspace, squidoo, twitter etc. etc. Oh! BTW, ning is going to be fully paid from July, 2010. Those looking for freebies, may better focus on a different network. Ning is obviously rocking for different features. But I feel more comfort with facebook fan page.

Back to the question - what I really did during the past few hours?

Networking. Purely networking.

Inviting new friends, commenting on relevant squidoo lenses, and what not. My social networking log (it is a simple spreadsheet I have created to streamline my social behavior! Stupidity? Don't know! Don't care!) reads:

1. Spent one hour to create a new blog on BigAdda. Frankly, I don't like their sloppy interface. There is no friend of mine yet. But it is great to connect Indians. So, I will explore opportunities there.

2. Spent another another 1 hour 45 minutes to update Squidoo lens. The lens has one rating and it is 5*. So, I 'll continue to update it till I get a reasonable response. Mind you, it took me more time to read ten odd lens to offer a suitable comments. I hope to get some return comments as well.

3. Spent 1 hour in updating hubpage and I became fan of a score of members to get one new fan in return. Hmmm. This return fanship strategy worked well for my twitter account. Hubpage is interesting but I really do not like to create unnecessarily many pages on the same topic. I've decided to update that single page more often.
4. Then that ning network. I did not really spend much time.

That's it. I hope to see some responses within coming few days.

Regarding leadsleap.com, I think, you need to spend sometime in creating referrals. You can tweet on it or otherwise.

So, my today's lesson is that I could see what I did during the past few hours. If there is any positive result, I'll continue my effort the next Saturday. Otherwise, I need to change my plan. Got it?

Track it man, track it.

Thanks.

Get Free Leads - PPC Quality Traffic BUT Without Spending a Single Cent

2010-04-29T09:19:00.000-07:00

FREE Leads for ALL

Get your Free PPC traffic. It is free genuine leads and not free traffic. While definitely free traffic lacks quality, the same does not apply for free leads. It means people, interested in our ads, are likely to click your ads and hopefully a percentage of them will convert. It works just like PPC advertisement. The only difference is that you are not going to pay anything to generate leads. I did not believe it could be true. But I found their claims to be correct and most interestingly it did not cost me too much time (max. 5/10 minuted a day) neither a single cent so far. Great nah? Most of all, it is too easy to earn credits to generate quality leads to your website.
Try it now for FREE!

How to generate FREE leads to your website?

Add LeadsLeap widget to your blog/website.

This is the best way to earn free credits and free leads. Whenever your visitors click on any link displayed in the widget, you earn one advertising credit. This is AUTO MAGIC system.

View other members' ads.

The best part is that they will deliver ten ads per day for you to visit, you need to visit each page for 30 seconds, so you need to spend a maximum of five minutes a day to generate quality leads to your landing page.

Refer your friends

Send invitation to your facebook, myspace or orkut friends, they are sure to respond. As unlike other programs leadsleap does not ask for payments. It is FREE to JOIN, FREE to GENERATE PPC traffic, and traffic quality is obviously better than most other ordinary traffic exchange programs.

What happens when I refer someone to leadsleap?

Whenever any of your personal referral views an ad, you will earn 1 credit! This means if you have 10 personal referrals and each of them view 10 ads, you will earn 100 credits every day, i.e., your ads will have the same number of free page impression.

If you have 20 personal referrals, you will receive extra 500 credits every month. Your bonus credits will be added on the 1st of each month, every month.

It's SIMPLE & full of FUN!

As such, they provide much more than Leads as well! Lots of informative and authentic articles on website promotion, hosting, and domain selection, must read for all, particularly for newbies.

Generating leads have never been so easy! Still in doubt?

I recommend you to spend only 10 minutes per day for 30 days and notice the TRAFFIC GROWTH. Just do not forget to maintain a time interval of 24 hours between two sessions. You can earn credits for viewing only 10 ads per day, so, if you visit more than 10 ads within the same day, no credit will be added to your account. And when you visit an ad, let it load, wait for 30 seconds, and then click the next ad. I check my accounts to see, if it is really being credited or not. There is no timer set. So, you patience and experience is the key to get the full credit for your clicks. SIMPLE!!!

Let's START Today!

Start Driving FREE Leads Now!

Cheers!

Yahoo Buzz, the new FREE Yahoo widget - something like Digg.com - has recently been launched and it sounds very promising for all publishers to show off their websites right at the Yahoo!

So, once again content is going to be the key. Interested?
All you need to do is to have an Yahoo account, grab this button, get the Javascript Code and add it to your blog/website, and you are done.

ENTRECARD - Promote YOUR BLOG, NETWORK WITH Bloggers, Have FUN

2008-08-16T01:23:00.000-07:00

Joined just now and may be too early to talk big but entrecard looks very promising tools for blog promotion. Being one of the biggest blogging community, they have introduces a system which will always help you in exploring new blogs related to your niche and getting back quality traffic in return.
Though the system looks little complicated for started but their well written started eBook will help you a lot in getting into the system within few minutes.
I think a lot of bloggers have already registered with them and must be well conversant with the system, still, if the system looks weird, here is how did I manage to start almost immediately after signing up.

Steps

Register
Add your blog - (Tips: I added few keywords in the blog title, hopefully they will not mind! Also I created a 125x125 jpg image to show it in my profile
Now after registering your blog, you will be asked to add a javascript code to your blog - I added it at the top of my left sidebar (Here!) - I later learnt that it is the best place to position your ENTRECARD
If you are still logged in to ENTRECARD, jumped to your DASHBOARD and verify your blog by clicking a link which reads something like 'Crawl my page now!' It takes hardly five minutes to verify their link code in your blog.
Now click Campaign tab; you will find loads of interesting blogs nicely organized under different categories. Click an image of the blog that you find interesting - you will be directed to that blog. Now read some posts, and if you like it, offer your comments and find the ENTRECARD Widget in that blog. Click the 'Drop' button on the bottom of the widget, and you are done. Repeat this process for as many blogs as you wish. The tutorial suggests you to repeat this step until you earn sixteen credits. OK. I'm doing it now. It took me around half an hour to grab my first sixteen drops - obviously, I commented on most of the blogs I visited - they are simply awesome.
Now you can purchase advertisements with sixteen ec credits in your pocker. Click Campaign -> Search . Set your search parameters and click 'Search' button! Now choose the blogs where you want to advertise by clicking 'Advertise' Button appearing below each thumbnail.
Finally, there are lot more resources for you waiting at ENTRECARD - GRAB THEM!

Blog that led me to this traffic resource:

Random Thoughts from Jena Isle on TAKING CHANCES WITH ENTRECARD

And this one is another blog offer tips worth reading.

ENTRECARD Advertising my 2 Cent Worth

First Impression: Within First One Hour I got five Ads for my blog and a decent rise in traffic! But I believe still a long way to go!

I have got regular conversion from traffic referred by them, and as per my experience - 10% of overall traffic you get are good in quality with a conversion rate of 10-15%, that is each 100 visit may eventually result in one or more sales! Obviously, you need to hook them up in a creative way.

StumbleUpon - Drive traffic to your website!

2008-01-18T11:08:00.000-08:00

Obviously not a great experiment for me till date! I've fair amount of experience in SEO - and it is now rather boring! Though search engine traffic is the most valued traffic, and you can hardly expect to see any change in its quality in near future, still I think - it is not that easy to get sustained traffic from search engines! Rather extremely difficult, in particular with the ever-bouncing index!

SO I'm trying social media to address a rather loyal audience. Since I'm not paying anybody so I need to set up my gear accordingly. No way to go on for an outright promotion, or, I'll be banned for spamming!

I tried to follow a modest approach just in line with my real life. The first big blow came from my ISP, who kept connection down for nearly a fortnight! Can you believe it? Now everything is alright and I'm trying out both social networking as well as social bookmarking sites.

I was not getting any response despite communicating 100+ friends a day by this time. Got many assurances, appreciations - but no return!

I stumbled my site finally few hours back & got some hit for the first time. God knows - whether my site stand up to the expectations or not! If yes, great! If not, I'm ready to go back to the developer's chair again.

Anyway, if you have not started stumbling - do it now!At least it has sent me some traffic - more than my expectation!

Learning Twittering - Follow Me!

2008-01-16T08:45:00.000-08:00

I have rarely seen as unique and innovative social networking site as twitter - simply amazing! It works great even when you are outdoor, i.e., away from your PC. Interesting part of it is that you do not need to write big blogs, or add great photos/videos to get attention . You simply share what you see/think/read/do at any moment. Whenever you find something interesting , whether offline/online - update it!

You can stay connected with the community using your keep-me-alive mobile handset via SMS! If you want to explore more, take a look at the 3D animated public timeline graphics representation! Mind-whirling! Yah! I mean it!

When I started, I just could not made up my mind where to go, or how to proceed? But now I know there is nothing as simple as twittering to get attention. Keep an eye on your followers (persons who care to listen to your updates!) - also do not neglect the inputs from the person whom you are following ( You must be a good listener- that's the basic needs)

OK! Fine! Understood! So what about website promotion? Once you have developed your credibility, you can tell your followers to digg you, or follow your blog post. But do not be boring, please.

Do you get it? If so, follow me on twitter!

Website Promotion using Yahoo!

2007-12-21T23:53:00.000-08:00

About the program!

Not too many of the internet giants offer you free space and bandwidth for self-promotion! But Yahoo! does so. You can join one or more out of thousands of busy groups, make friendship, post messages, send messages, share your favorite links, photos and what not! If there is traffic , there must be an way to promote yourself. You need not be a rocket scientist to do it successfully. Modest, moderate and carefully crafted words will do the trick. Besides, you must have the habit to listen to the offers posted by others, or offer some sincere suggestions (without promotion) when people seeks for suggestion. It does not take a decade to develop your credibility in small groups. But helps in both-ways. First of all, free promotion for your programs, and secondly, real life people may help you further by talking about your program/website with there friends.

Groups To Avoid!

There are a lot of groups that show thousands of members. Join them, and share your Email IDs with them at your risk. Because Email-spammers may suck your entire energy. So, choose groups carefully. Read one or two posts, and check if there is any reply. Also check for Email settings, if available. I would recommend you to join small group and spend few minutes daily to exchange dialogs with group members. Please do not spam. Spamming is an infectious disease, and once started it spreads faster than computer virus.

MySpace - Digg it to find opportunities for webstie promotion

2007-12-16T06:14:00.000-08:00

Have you heard of mySpace before? If not, or if you have not created a free account in mySpace, you must be missing a great opportunity of website promotion. MySpace terms and conditions suggest that you need to take prior approval to promote yourself. But neither the Internet Marketer nor you should miss this opportunity to present yourself before a gradually expanding community.
Although you are not allowed to promote yourself in open daylight but you can well manage self-promotion using Bulletin/Messages/Classifieds/Comments/Photos/Videos/Blogs or many other features available there. However, you need to do it in disguise! Otherwise, you might risk your account getting banned.
Above all do not forget the motive of each social networking website. It is there to allow you to interact with like minded people, so do not neglect the social aspect of such sites.
Here also use most of your time in social networking and a fraction of time in self -promotion. You will get good response.

Use Swickis for free website promotion

2007-12-16T03:04:00.000-08:00

Not really meant for website promotion, does not have any guarantee to pump-up your website traffic, swickis are still under my test bed to learn its actual impact on Website Promotion. Let me introduce what Swicki is.

A swicki is a custom search portal focussed around any topic of your choice! You create a swicki, give some basic inputs like your favorite urls for that search, and search keywords and you are done. Instead of returning millions of search results, swicki returns limited number of results. Above all, it learns from user interaction to show more relevant search results.

When you add your website to list of urls, there is a chance of showing your web page for a relevant search result! Considering the volume of searches made, you cannot deny its significance as a free website promotion tool.

Check this e-Shopping Swicki , I have created to search deals, discounts and coupon codes! It took only few minutes to create a swicki like this one. But its effect in the long run is overwhelming! So create your own swicki relevant to your website without wasting any time.

ORKUT - Free Website Promotion for everyone! Get started Now

2007-12-16T02:04:00.000-08:00

Using ORKUT

Connect with friends and family using scraps and instant messaging
Discover new people through friends of friends and communities
Share your videos, pictures, and passions all in one place

Web Promotion:

For any social networking sites to be used effectively, you need to spend certain amount of time daily to listen to what your friends have to say, or making new friendship! Blatant outright promotion is quite likely to be rejected! Just pay more attention in developing a network of good friends, and then start promotion! It takes time but very much effective. For ORKUT there are so many communities where you can promote any type of websites! Needless to say that there are fair amount of readers for each community. However, you need to spend sometime for writing a catchy 'title' because members do not like to read the body of a post if the title is not attractive. Also there are quite a few communities where you can send message to its members.

My Recommendation:

Earlier, when I used to spend ten to fifteen minutes daily in uploading videos/photos, or writing scraps to my ORKUT friends, I used to get lots of hits against each of my promotional campaign. I'm just going back to my old strategy.

Networking on Weekdays and promotion on Holidays! This is very much effective.

Share everything + Earn Money + Free Website Promotion

2007-12-16T01:03:00.000-08:00

Flixya is a place to share videos, photos and blogs. Create your account and instantly start earning money. 100% revenue is yours. This is how they have made their initial promotion. They allow you to share your Adsense Publisher ID so that you can make some money from Adsense.

However, this social networking site can be used for website promotion bit tactfully. Though officially you are not entitled to promote your website or blog, but you can do so nicely by posting blog entries relevant to your website and adding a text link near the bottom of that post to avoid the risk of getting banned. You can obviously tell something about your website in 'About me' section as well as in the footer part of your blog entries.

Since search engines love this website very much so your entries, if rich in content, may find top place in search engine result. Your message is delivered to thousands of audience who have subscribed to Google news alerts, and your brand thus will have more exposure.

I personally make one or two entries in a week and spend sometime daily interacting with others! Although getting traffic to your website depends a lot on the quality of your entries but so far as branding is concerned flixya will help you a lot. Earning money from your Adsense account is just a bonus.
