How Important are Keywords to Your Site!!

How Important are Keywords to Your Site!!

In the beginning "Key Words" where the most important factor on how your website got ranked, among the search engines. The better the keywords you used, the higher the score you got for your sites rankings. However, they’re just one of dozens elements that are taken into consideration.

So what are keywords, what role do they play, on our site, blog or articles we submitted to search engines. Keywords are the words the users types in the search boxes when they are looking for a product, advice or anything that they may be looking for. Simply put, keywords are the words that are used to catalog, index and find your website.

So when you're writing an article on your blog, or website, think about who you want to target, who your audience is going to be, what your niche market is. Keeping them important factors in mind, you will select specific words that will be searchable; within your audience. It's an important step, let's face it; you want readers who have an interest in your article, or whatever it is that you are marketing.

Spend some time, and do some research on your competition, and see how their sites rank, and why it ranks higher than yours. What words have they used, that allow search engines to find their place? Understanding your competition is vital to your success, after all, you're competing with them. Why waste your talents, and never have any unique visitors, visiting your site for lack of preparation.

Here is an important element to always remember, when writing your script, make sure you're using the keywords you will use to become searchable in cyberspace. Becomes a good habit if you always remember to use your keywords in your article, you will get noticed and clicked on.

There are two different types of keywords, branding keywords, and generic keywords. If you're not using the branding keywords, you will surely miss out. These are words that are your business name, description of what your company is all about and, of course, the product or topic your marketing.

Generic keywords are words; that are not branded with your business name, for an example if your website is outdoorsports.com you would use terms such as knives, fishing rods, guns, lures, tackle boxes, accessories, sleeping bags you get the picture.

These are necessary steps for you to get noticed and clicked on the web if no one chooses words that are relevant to your site then you're missing the boat and wasting your time and talents with your original articles.

I hope we all benefit from the information I have shared I will talk more about the elements that will have a real effect on how your site gets ranked and clicked on.

Here is a simple tool you can use to help you with the selection the words you should use on your website, blog or an article you write.

How Alexa Ratings Benefit Your Home Business

October 14, 2011

There are a lot of great tools for the home business owner, such as social media, marketing, Google Webmasters, Wonder Wheel, Analytics, and so many more. But the tool that I want to talk about today is Alexa and the benefits of having a high Alexa rating. Some of those benefits include bringing traffic to your site, bringing you targeted leads, gaining instant credibility and offering you even more earning opportunities.

Alexa Helps Your Credibility

Your Alexa rating shows that you are working every day at your business. It indicates that you don’t treat your business as a hobby; you treat it as your own business with the professionalism that it deserves. How it does this is because, even without your Alexa rating or even Google rating, you are driving traffic to your site just by adding new information consistently. If you are offering respected information that is of value to others they are staying on your site to read it and to look for more details. Alexa sees that and uses it to rate your site. It can tell if you have a poorly kept site that offers little to now value. SO the higher your Alexa rates in respect to your keywords, the better and more valuable Alexa sees your site. Knowing that, it is clear to see why a higher rating in Alexa automatically gives you instant credibility.

Alexa Helps Your Site’s Traffic

A higher Alexa rating helps bring in more traffic to your site because it shows to others that:

1. You are consistently adding new information.

2. You are offering valuable content that people tend actually to stay on your page and read.

3. You value the time that you put into your site.

There are some other reasons that Alexa can bring you more traffic, but these three are the key ones.

By the way, if you are not doing the three things, consistently adding new information, offering valuable content, or value the time that you put into your site, it will show in your ratings.

Alexa Helps You Get Targeted Leads

Chances are if you get a lead from your site, that person already knows quite a bit about your business style, your credibility and already has a sense of trust towards you. They also are already interesting in working with you because they feel that you have the qualities of a leader that they are looking for.

You really can’t get more laser-targeted than that! How your Alexa rating helps you get these leads or prospects is simply by getting that extra flow of traffic to your site of people who, before even visiting your page, have value to offer to them.

Alexa Helps bring you More Earning Opportunities

There are going to be a lot of people looking for your site because of your high rating on Alexa, but it is not only going to be prospects or people interested in your business. Other individuals who use Alexa for their activities are marketers looking for good websites to place their advertisements on. There is a good chance that you will have offers from people or companies, with a product or service that relates to your business, asking you to allow them to pay you to place an advertisement on your site. It also opens the door to other opportunities such as joint ventures.

No matter what your home business or even your product is having striving to achieve a higher rating on Alexa could mean a world of difference to your company. It really can be an excellent source to focus on to help you build your business consistently and successfully.

Some New Changes Coming to APSense soon!

October 13, 2011
A little about myself l been here since September 15, 2007, it was my son's birthday, made sense for me to join this site. I have seen many changes some good some l do not exactly agree with. But l do know and understand one thing about APSense you will never get the freedom you have here as a "Free Member.' Your abilities and talent are at your fingertips; you have it all here.


But like most "Social Media Business Sites". We have our fair share of problems as we all know "Spamming" is a primary concern, it's useless and laziness from the promoter of that link. We have found a way to control this type of "Marketing" here at APSense, more information on this to follow. APSense is about sharing the creative writing of articles that will enhance new babies and seasoned writers, educate each of us to become better at what we do.

I have met, read and learned from many of the members here at APSense on how to be better at what l desire and that is the market on the internet. Tonight l had a long talk with our founder Wincer Song about all that has been going on here since l been away but always kept an eye on what was being streamed out by our members. Read some articles, hardly ever comment on any or give it a like.

I told him what we talked about is how we are going to make this a much more professional business site and attract experts in some areas to provide our audience advise and educate you to lead your company to become more active and fruitful. It's going to take time, but we have a game plan that will provide rewards and most of all; bring us all success to our promotions.

For all the new members who have no idea who Wincer is, l will tell you this. He is the most determine, stubborn owner l have worked with. I can say that cause l know him pretty well. His goal is to grow and become the best "Social Media Business Site" on the internet. We will get there one idea at a time, we currently Ranking on Alexa's at 3,232 that's progress in the right direction.

I will share more information about what we are doing and the direction we will take....

All the Best,

Surround Yourself With Positive People They Will Build You Up

October 12, 2011

If you want to grow personally and professionally, you will need to surround yourself with positive people. Active people will keep you motivated when you are feeling down and give you that extra push and support when you need it. Positive people help your self-confidence because they tend to see the potential in you (even when you might not see it in yourself). Active people have a mental attitude that admits into their minds thoughts, words, and images that attract and draw to them growth, expansion, and success. It is a mental attitude that expects good and favorable results. Active people anticipate happiness, joy, health and a successful outcome of every situation and action.

Candid, Constructive Criticism

You also need active people who will be candid with you about what you are doing and provide you with constructive criticism that will help you keep going forward. When you are around people who are positive, enthusiastic and supportive, you will feel encouraged and inspired. You will pick up their attitude; you will feel as if you have added strength to pursue your goals vigorously. If you had a choice, wouldn't you rather surround yourself with such mentally and psychologically nourishing people? Well, in fact, you do have a choice. It's up to you to determine who you spend your time with. To begin with, develop friendships and associations with people who are positive and supportive. Also, seek out individuals who are action-oriented and service-oriented. As you spend more and more time in the company of individuals who have these traits, you, too, will develop the same advantageous characteristics and put them to use in your life. Consider who you have been spending your time with. Examine your friendships and relationships at work and during your leisure hours. Those who occupy your time have a significant impact on your most priceless possession: YOUR MIND!

Negative People And How They'll Drain You

Negative people or those who are not well meaning, on the other hand, will hinder your self-confidence because they tend to reinforce your self-doubt and negative beliefs about yourself. These people will drag you down to their level. They hammer away at you with all of the things you can't do and all of the things that are impossible. They barrage you with gloomy statements about the problems in their lives. The lousy economy, the problems soon to be in your life, and the terrible prospects for the future - they might even throw in a few words about their aches and pains, recent illnesses, blah blah blah After listening to such toxic people, you will find yourself feeling listless, depressed and drained. These people are "energy vampires," they suck all the positive energy out of you. These "vampires" have the capacity to wear you down and kill your dreams. Negative people are draining. Try to stay away from them as much as possible.

Bottom Line: Never underestimate the power of both negative and positive people. Negative people will bring you down whereas active people will build you up. As Mark Twain once said "Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that. The great make you feel that you too can become great."

If it's Not a Money Making site, "NO" One reads it, Why? Part 2

October 9, 2011
When l wrote that article, l was not telling you to "STOP" doing whatever it is your doing to make money on the internet. What my main "Objective Here" is to make you "THINK" of how your affiliate program is going to become noticed and clicked on.


How we Market our programs are the most important step in having someone stop and check out your offers. It's called a competitive edge in the internet marketing; you're doing something different from the rest of the members that are promoting your very same affiliate program that you are. How many are pitching the same program on the internet? They got from the same place you do if it was a "Click Bank" offering or from another member.

I have seen them all, joined some and made exactly what you have achieved so far. The ("ROI") return on your investment, is not looking magnificent. You invested mostly your time and perhaps a little money, all for nothing, except "frustration" Now you see the point that your investment was a dud for a lack of a better word. So how do we change all of this, get noticed and get the click you need. If you have a lot of money for your advertising, then you can use "PPC".

Most of us have no idea what "PPC" even means or how the bid system works by your selection of keywords for your campaign. http://goo.gl/4t89pvery learning an efficient and active process for the seasoned marketer on the internet. I have used it religiously and liked my "ROI" what it is all about making money when that is the direction and mindset you to have.

But most of us have no intention of investing on "PPC", so the other route is "FREE ADVERTISING"...now l got your attention. A Very sensitive method for the simple reason; many do not know how to do it effectively. Sending your tweet to Twitter is effective if you provide the correct sizzle with your tweet. The sizzle is your "Pitch Line" getting attention from the audience that reads and decides to click on your link.

I want you to read and study these steps if you have a desire to earn an income on the internet. Marketing on the web is an "ART" very learnable, skills. Teachable to all who want to invest in their marketing abilities and seeing results,
With their progress.

Here are some examples of how you can better market your program differently than the rest. Take a little time review my Rev Pages here and learn how l did it and did it. Hope this give you some ideas of what l was trying to teach us all.

I have a group here at APSense called. How can you Earn Income on the Internet" if you have time have a look at all the members, read some their advice as well as what l have written, simple and some complicated steps for you to learn and start earning an income here on the web.

I will "ADD" another step to what l have shared so far, you can bookmark these articles, print them and most importantly you learn and perhaps for the first time on the right track for success as an "AFFILIATED MARKETER."

All the Best,

If it's Not a Money Making site, "NO" One reads it, Why?

October 8, 2011

If it's Not a Money Making site, "NO" One reads it, Why?

Been doing some research tonight on what sites get the most attention on the "Social Media Sites"!! I am not at all surprised by what l discovered at all, totally expected it and knew it for a long time. Most members, are to focus on clicking the sites that will actually lead them to the never, never land.

So if l promote useless links from let's say "Click Bank" they have made millions of dollars not knocking them at all, just how many other members are promoting that same product; the same way as all the other affiliated members are doing it. So let's be honest here when you decided to promote that product, your mind said wow, l am going to become rich with this. Forgetting one thing, if you find it, how many others are using it before you find it.

So the point here is if you are up against all the other affiliated members, what competitive edge are you using to make your link different and optimized differently with creative meta tags, keywords and keyword phrases. What makes you stand out. With all due respect, anyone can copy and paste and then click the hit button and send it to cyberspace. But did you get any confirmation in your "INBOX" saying Congratulation you have made a "sale"?

If you do not, believe me, go to your email account and see if you have any....I hope you do, really l do. Not that easy at all, when you have so many people pitching the same items you are. Everything you found on the internet, someone has beaten you to it. How do l know this been doing this since l learned CoBAL, RPG, DOS yes showing my age.

When you fully understand and learn how the search engines crawl your site and perhaps index your site and how it is being ranked by "Alexa's Ranking" then you have a competitive edge. Investing in your abilities, will provide you with an accurate 'ROI" return on your investment.

The internet is the fastest way to make real money and the most frustrating place when your not making money. You say how come l am not getting clicks, how come no one likes my articles, what did l do wrong. Yes, l could go on...but why right you all know the point and the,'WHY FACTOR"....

The Mastermind Behind an Empire, Steve Jobs

October 6, 2011

With the sudden loss of the greatest brains in the world of technology and the mastermind behind the success of "Apple Computers". Built an empire from his parents garage, borrowed the "Apple Label" from the Beatles' record label, in exchange he would not market music on the internet.

Create the first personal computer Apple II, added color to his products, free marketing genies when it came to promoting Apple Computers. He developed Pixar, creator of "Toy Story" and sold it to Walt Disney when he was fired by his company Apple Computers.

He focus and ability to understand what his audience wanted and desire, he would develop the products that sold them self to the public. Iphones, Ipads just to name a couple of them, his vision was extraordinary to see the product even before it was developed.  Creates an entire market that he had all of his own, and took months, years for his competition to catch up even understand what he was doing.

He lost his life to cancer at the age of 56; the world will actually miss Steve Jobs Vision and creative abilities. I will leave you with his favorite quote that he would say each and every day.


"Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn't matter to me … Going to bed at night saying we've done something wonderful that's what is important to me."
