SEO tips and tricks..

SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMISATION (SEO):


Search engine optimization is the widely used method by most of the affiliates to make their sites ranked high on search engine. This method will help you to get lots of traffic in your site. It has lots of techniques or trick to make your site ranked number one.

There are two methods for search engine optimization.

· One the work which should be done outside the website.

· And another work which should be done inside the pages.

THINGS YOU NEED TO DO BEFORE OPTIMIMIZING YOUR SITE:- 

KEY WORD RESEARCH:- 

Before optimizing your site make a list of keyword which you will use in your site. There are several keyword research tools which will provide you the keyword which are ranked on top. These key words will either short or little big. Here we will discuss about the pros and cons about small or big key words.

Short key words:- 

Small key words are such key words which are search by most of the people. They may only have unclear idea for what visitors are searching for. Using such keywords it is difficult to make your site ranked one because many other sites might have an article using these keywords. Beginners affiliate can choose these keyword if they have less competitor.

Big keywords:- 

Big keyword refers to keyword which contain many adjective or words that make the search very specific or targeted. People doing search with such keywords know exactly what they are searching for. These keywords may have fewer competitors and are easy to rank on search engine. These keywords are for highly pointed visitors. If you use keyword like “‘o’ necked white sweater” then only the people who want o necked white sweater will visit your site. The only disadvantages you will have is relatively low visitors then that of using short keyword. But these visitors are more targeted.

Make sure you haven’t use too much keyword in a same page it will make your page ugly and even it will make search engine confuse. Using more keyword in same page wont make your website ranked one.

OPTMIZING DIFFERENT META TAGS:- 

<Title> tag: - most of the people forgot how optimizing title tag will help to make their site ranked at top. Instead of using your company name or other information at title tag I suggest you to use keyword. Visitor searching your key word will see your site highlighted at the top if the keyword they searched is same as your title. This will definitely give you more traffic than those site who are ranked above you and haven’t optimize their title tag. This method will help you to drag the visitors of other site who haven’t optimized their title tag. Optimizing title tag also helps in distinguishing the pages.

Title tag is one of the easiest ways to define search engine what your page is and where should it be ranked. Search engine take all the information from the web and try to categorize it in a useful way so that the visitors could find what they are looking for. So write clearly in title tag what your page is about and make its work easier. If you have two pages that are quite matching then search engine won’t find out a difference so for this misspell slightly the Meta tag.

Header and bold tag:- most of the webmaster set the topics with header tag and important items with bold tag. They can easily attract visitor’s eye. It is the best way to give main information within the page. But one thing many people don’t know. Not only visitor notice these tag search engine also notice it. These tag give indication about what your page is about and what are the important content available in your page to search engine. If your site is about dog’s stuff then type <h1>dog</h1> at the top of your page. This will make sure to search engine and visitors what your page is about. This will help you to bring your site at the top when visitors want to know any sort of information about dog. Better not to use too many keywords into these tag . you can use 2-4 h1 tag within your page and make sure there must be at least a paragraph within each header tag . When you have done with header tag then come with bold or italic tag. When using your keyword through out the page then its better to put them into italic or bold tag . so that search engine will know these words are important.

There are lots of affiliate marketing networks which will help you to find out the product that are good and in demand. Before selecting such affiliate network, put little more effort on research and find out the one which will help you in achieving your dream. The most new affiliate do mistakes by selecting such product which have incredibly more competitor. Select such area in which you have genuine passion and interest. If you are only lured by the high earning of product and don’t have much more interest on it then it is not worthy. Later on you will find boring on promoting it . Keep one thing in mind - affiliate marketing must be targeted for long term. Such model will thought out with a long term goal will bring enough money for you in future as part-time or full time earning.

SOME OF THE GOOD AFFILIATE MARKETING NETWORK WHICH HAVE UNIQUE FEATURE:-

· MORENICHE: - Moreniche is also one of the best affiliate marketing network . If you are new to affiliate marketing then I will suggest you to join this network. They will teach you everything which is needed for you in affiliate marketing. It’s free to sign up and they will appoint a personal mentor or coach for you who will help you in learning about affiliate marketing. He will also help you in making your first sale. If you don’t have your own website then they will provide you a free template for you from where you can start your business. They have lots of learning material for beginners. Via this network, you will not only earn good commission but also learn a lot on affiliate marketing.

· PAYDOTCOM: - This affiliate marketing network will allow you to communicate with merchant. (Most of the marketing networks don’t allow communicating with the merchant). Paydotcom is highly integrated for paying to its member. They will pay you regularly and even commission may goe up to 80%.

HOW DO YOU GET PAID IN AFFILIATE MARKETING:-
Once you build your site successful y and you are signed up with affiliate marketing network or merchant site, you will be given a unique affiliate ID. When you sigh in to the network to get the link of the product which you are going to promote they will embed your affiliate ID to the every link which you are going to promote. They will track the link through different tracking software which will track the click done from your id . So the merchant side will pay for the id through which click has been done. Different affiliate marketing networking have different polices in paying. It varies from network to network. Some pay weekly some biweekly or monthly.

HOW YOU CAN SAY YOUR NETWORK IS GOOD:
Many new affiliates don’t know which network is excellent for them. In the above section, I had given some of the good affiliate network which will help you to get involved in affiliate marketing. But what about other networks which are not listed above? You can simply judge the network by asking few questions. Never join a network which asks you to pay for joining or asks you to buy product for joining. Never join the network without contacting with other affiliate already in the program , ask if they have any problem. Give preference to those networks which keeps in contact with you in regular basis via mail. Give preferences to those networks which will give you notification by mail when a sale is made. You will be updated with the sale that the merchant has made through your visitor. Focus on the network which will provide you a help on making sale online or offline. Choose the network that provides you a commission of sales of people who will sign up under you. All these things should be kept in mind before jumping on any network without appropriate knowledge about it.

WHY MOST OF THE AFFILIATE GIVE UP AFTER SOME TIME:-
Not all the affiliates get success. Some of the people who don’t have enough patience and who want to be millionaire within a week feel tired and give up. You should have enough patience and focus on product that you are selling. If someone excites you to do affiliate marketing to buy a Mercedes within a week, then I would suggest you not to follow such hypes. Earning money isn’t a easy stuff. It is not easy and you should work hard to be a good affiliate. Try to learn as much as possible about attracting more traffic. The most useful and widely used method by most of the affiliates for good marketing is search engine optimization. The process of increasing traffic to the website by ranking top on search result is called search engine optimization.
