WithContinue reading “Other sites I have used over the last few years.”

Key Concept Number 3: – Page Rank
If you’re new to Internet marketing, “PageRank” or “PR” is something you’ll hear a lot about. While the literal meaning is the original patented web-page-ranking algorithm that was the basis for Google, in IM and webmaster circles, it usually refers to the “toolbar export” number that Google assigns to every page it indexes. The rangeContinue reading “Key Concept Number 3: – Page Rank”
Key Concept Number 2: – “Ranking is ONLY in relation to the search being done.”
First, realise that a given page will rank in different positions for different searches. If I have a site with a page about “bee sting cures”, I may have achieved a good Page 1 rank for a search on “bee sting cures”, while that same page may not even be in the top one hundredContinue reading “Key Concept Number 2: – “Ranking is ONLY in relation to the search being done.””
Key Concept Number 1: “Websites don’t rank, only pages – URL’s – do.
When we talk about terms like “ranking,” “Page 1”, “SERPs” (Search Engine Results page), we have to understand a very important concept. Websites – as an entity – don’t rank, only pages, or individual URL’s do. Search engines are huge databases containing billions of ‘records’. Each ‘record’ is a web page. A search is aContinue reading “Key Concept Number 1: “Websites don’t rank, only pages – URL’s – do.”

Ranking Position and Traffic Volume
In nearly all searches – though there are some exceptions – the #1 top listing gets the greatest percentage of clicks. How much? As much as half, or 50% – sometimes more. Positions #2 and #3 generally split the next 25%. In other words, the Top 3 listings will get 75% of the traffic! TheContinue reading “Ranking Position and Traffic Volume”
Traffic again
Internet Marketing Traffic The phrase “internet marketing” has become a catch-all term that usually means “making money online” (although it now includes the realm of “offline marketing” as well). There are many different ways to make money online, but for the most part they tend to fall into just a few ‘business models’, each ofContinue reading “Traffic again”

I thought I’d share some of the places I’ve been in my Online Learning, Writing and Blogs. EZ Time Managemet is a course I went through, the title of which is obvious. My favourite bit for this course was the use of the Pomodoro Technique, which basicall says use a timer and stay on taskContinue reading “Work in Progress”
Reflections and Progress
Here is a post from Daily Motivation that has me thinking today. “No matter how much progress you make on your healing journey, there will still be nights when feelings of intense sadness creep in. Old memories may resurface, tears may flow, and your heart may feel unbearably heavy. And that’s okay. In these moments,Continue reading “Reflections and Progress”
