11) Time To Test Your Website: Go through every single page and every single link to make sure that it functions flawlessly. The last thing you want when your website launches is broken links and 404 error codes. People will leave and never come back. If Google crawls your site and finds broken links, or links that don’t link correctly, then you face the possibility of being blacklisted. Blacklisted means that your website can’t be search on Google because it will remove the index.

12) Build Your Sitemap: It’s time to build your sitemap. It is fairly simple to do, so don’t freak out! Building a sitemap will help search engine bots or crawlers easily discover all of the pages on your site. The sitemap works as a guide for the search engine crawlers to find every page and link on your site. This will help when they “stop by” to index new pages or information.

Sites that will assist you in creating or building your sitemap:
http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/
http://sitemap.xmlecho.org/sitemap/
http://www.sitemapdoc.com/

You can also use tools from Go Daddy and other website hosting companies to generate your sitemap.

13) Submit Your SIte: It’s time to start submitting your website’s url. I could type until the end of the year telling you of every place you should submit your website, but I’m just going to name the most important ones here. It won’t hurt you to do a little bit of research on your own… that’s how we all learn!

Submit your site to these places: DMOZ, Google, Google Maps, Yahoo, MSN, Live, Cuil, Insider Pages, Gimpsy, Go Guides, Joe Ant, AOL and CIty Search.

With this in mind, we must still be sure to fuse images correctly with html, or other web language formats. Here we’ll discuss a few important things that you need to know when using images… and how to use them correctly and efficiently.

7 ) Optimizing Images: When using images in your website design, it is essential that you optimize the images correctly. If an image is too large of a file size, then it will look good, but the page will take longer to load. If you make the image file size too small, then the page will load fast, but the quality of the image will be poor. Make sure to set your images to the smallest file size, while retaining the highest quality possible to the human eye. Note: The standard image size is 72 DPI.

8 ) Naming Your Images: Make sure that you name your images using words that associate with your website and keywords that you have chosen. For instance, don’t name your images something crazy like 24524rhhrkhr3809.jpg, or something simple like pic1.jpg. Instead, make your image names matter. For instance, if you own a landscaping company, name your images landscaping-services.jpg, or landscaping-company.jpg. This will contribute to your SEO strategy in the long run.

9 ) Using ALT Tags: Each image should have an ALT tag attached to it (ALT=”alt image name”). Because search engines can’t identify what the image(s) look like, what color they are, what their purpose is, what text is on them, etc. you must identify them using ALT tags which act as “name tags” or “invisible ink” for the image(s) they represent. ALT tags also help users in the case that images don’t load correctly; the user will still be able to read the images on each page.

10 ) Image Quantity: Be sure to use a balance of images and html or web generated graphics. Too many images make a page load slow, and not enough may leave potential customers uninterested in browsing your site.

6 ) Meta & Title Tags: It’s true that because of the deceitful trickery that people have used in the past, Google no longer sees Meta Keywords as important or as relevant as they used to be. That doesn’t mean to leave the out! Make sure you add the below meta tags to your site. Whether every bit of it helps or not… it sure won’t hurt. Don’t over due the content. Keep it simple.

Keep your Title Tag, brief but to the point. Use your company name and your most popular service or product. Try to make separate Title Tags for each page of your site.

meta name=”keywords” content= Enter up to 10 keywords that are relevant to your website & services.

meta name=”description” content= Enter your website’s description in complete sentences. Be sure to descrobe your services here as well.

meta name=”subject” content= Website subject such as homebuilder, real estate, gardening, etc. A Single word will due.

meta name=”robots” content= just make sure you have “index, follow”

meta name=”revisit-after” content= How often do you want search engines to crawl your site? This mostly depends on how often you update it and add content, but it’s not a bad thing to have.

meta name=”author” content= Simple enter who designed your site, or who owns it.

Every SEO company on the market says “we can get you to page one.” Almost none of them teach their clients how or why. They want to control your emotions into always having to rely on them for their services. Spunk Marketing does not believe in this method. Clients pay good money for professional services; there’s nothing wrong with explaining some things as you go along. “Teachers” have always been more favorable than “Account Managers” in my opinion. That’s just who we are.

Providing understanding to your clients is the best way to keep their business, and your referrals will go through the roof.

If you have ever heard anybody say that they know everything about SEO, then they’re probably not being honest. The fact is that out of all of the SEO gurus out there, less than .0001% know everything there is to know about SEO, and most of them work for Google or Yahoo!

What Is Search Engine Optimization (SEO)?

SEO is the use of basic and advanced techniques used to help your website show up in organic search engine results. This means that more people will see your website, which means that more visitors will visit your site. At the end of the day, the purpose is for you to generate more customer leads.

Organic Search Engine Results are results that are not generated by pay-per-click. They are generated “naturally” according to your website’s content.

Getting Started

1 ) Planning: Plan your foundation SEO and website marketing strategy before you get started on developing your website. You’ll highly regret it if you wait until you’ve already started to start thinking about your strategy.

2 ) Keyword Research: Hire an SEO company to do some keyword research for you, or manually do it yourself by typing in your target keyword phrases. Write down some of the companies that show up in the results and shop their website’s content, layout and strategy.

3 ) Keyword Preparation: Make a list of 5-10 keyword phrases that describe your products, services and company. Include locations if you are targeting a local customer. Do not use single word keywords, use 2-3 word phrases for best results.

Example: If you were a homebuilder selling new homes in Atlanta; you would want to use “Atlanta New Homes” as your keyword phrase. You wouldn’t just want to use “homes” as that could target someone looking to rent homes, sell homes, paint homes, sell appliances for homes, etc. Target your keywords to generate qualified customers. Make sure that you are using keywords that are actually being searched.

4 ) Writing Your Content: Pre-write the content for your website and include your keywords and keywords phrases throughout the content. Try to use one keyword phrase per paragraph. Do not overuse the keyword phrases. Google could blacklist you for doing so. Include keyword phrases on every page.

5 ) Linking Keywords in Your Content: Use keywords and phrases in your content, and link the text to other pages on the interior of your website.

For Example: If you had the sentence “Damascus Homes builds new homes in Atlanta and is dedicated to serving you” you would want to link “new homes in Atlanta” to your services or sales page. Do not direct more than one duplicate content link to the same page. Google will catch this as well.

I just started using Craig’s List last week and I have already sold 13 video games, some speakers, a computer mouse and keyboard, a pistol grib, an xbox, some controllers and an old TV. It was all things that haven’t been used in years and most of it was sealed in a box at the bottom of my closet.

It’s a free and easy way to make money with stuff that you consider junk. What some people consider junk, others consider treasure!

It’s easy to do. Create a free account, take pictures of what you want to sell and start posting.

Some Good Marketing & Sales Tips To Help You Out:

1) Take excellent photos of what you are trying to sell

2) Do some research to come up with a good price

3) Create an exciting subject line about your product

4) Write a brief description, and bullet point some of the features of the item

5) Leave clear contact information… try not to use home phone numbers. Stick to cells and email addresses.

6) Use PayPal or meet at a public place to exchange money and products.

7) Never use money grams, wire money, or except checks from people. There is a lot of check fraud on Craig’s List.

Good Luck!
