List Building In The Age Of Twitter

List Building In The Age Of Twitter

Copyright (c) 2010 Titus Hoskins

Andy Warhol got it wrong, he meant to say 15 seconds instead of 15 minutes! That lower number seems much more appropriate in the fast moving world of Twitter, the souped up mass online messaging tool that never quits or takes a breather. But how effective is Twitter as a list building tool?

Recently, one well-known Internet Marketer deleted his Twitter account which had over 25,000 followers, saying his messages or tweets were no longer being read and the response rate was next to nil. While this seems a little drastic, for SEO reasons alone it would be very foolish to delete a Twitter account with that many subscribers.

However, does this marketer have a point? Do your tweets get read or are they lost in the endless flood of other tweets quickly passing through the system. There is probably a lot of unread tweets flowing in our cyberage wasteland and the effectiveness of tweeting has diminished drastically as countless marketers plaster this latest medium with their marketing sales pitches.

So is Twitter an effective list building tool or not? Yes and no, it would all depend on how you approach the situation.

Twitter is a quick and effective way of building a large list of contacts which you can send messages to in a spam-free way. Lists with millions of followers is not unknown – thank Ashton Kutcher. Even for the online marketer and webmaster, Twitter can be an effective way to build a list of contacts very quickly.

However, the real issue remains, are your messages or tweets being read? Sadly, in many cases, because of the transitory nature and the sheer volume of tweets – your messages are probably not getting read or are not seen by as many people as you would like to see them. Therefore, one could argue about the effectiveness of Twitter as a list building tool; what’s the point if your messages are not making contact with your followers?

The key to success here is the same as with any list – you have to build a loyal group of followers who are eager to read your messages. It’s the relationship, stupid.

Besides, many people forget that Twitter is also one of the most popular web sites on the net, so having your messages and more importantly your links on this popular site is a “must-do” for webmasters and marketers. For SEO reasons alone, Twitter is extremely important. Your links are indexed by the search engines, especially if your Twitter profile is seen as an Authority Account with lots of influence.

With this fact in mind, here are some simple Twitter list building tips:

1. Make sure you build an attractive Twitter Profile targeted to your audience.

2. Place links to your Twitter Profile from all web sites and other social media sites/accounts.

3. One effective way is to use a Twitter bookmark on all your relevant content and pages.

4. Attach a link to your profile in all forum posts and email signatures.

5. Use your Twitter account as your main tool for contact with tech/customer support.

6. Add your Twitter Profile to your marketing articles and blog posts.

7. Offer free ebooks, courses and special reports to anyone who re-tweets your messages.

8. Become active within Twitter, link to other related Twitter profiles and build a strong presence.

Having said all that, I haven’t used Twitter much, except for SEO link building purposes. I find most messages or tweets do get lost in the constant flow of tweets. If a tweet falls in cyberspace, and no one reads it, is it really a tweet?

Then again, as an online affiliate marketer I have found other list building methods much more effective than sending a tweet. At the moment, one of my most effective list building techniques is at the opposite end of the spectrum, one that’s totally anonymous and invisible. If you’re into affiliate marketing you’re probably already using this technique; simply promote or pick affiliate products/program which have a cookie attached to them, when someone clicks your link they are “cookied” with your affiliate ID. I like picking affiliate programs which have at least a 90 day cookie, you can quickly build up an invisible list of prospective customers and if they buy within 90 days, you are credited with the commission.

Of course, one could always combine this affiliate list building method with your Twitter account/followers, which would be extremely effective if anyone ever bothered to read your tweets and click your links. Now if everyone could just spare 15 seconds, you have a very slim possibility of becoming both rich as well as famous.

Seven Google Adsense Tips

Seven Google Adsense Tips

Making money with Google AdSense can be as easy as creating the Google AdSense account and including ads on a site. However, to get the most out of AdSense takes more effort. It requires designing an attractive layout, using proper keywords and positioning among others.

 

Tip #1: Keywords Keywords Keywords

 

Google uses keywords as a major part of their algorithm to determine search results. This is simple – a website promoting golf clubs should include golf clubs multiple times on the website. This makes sense.  Google will parse through the content on the website, find keywords for golf clubs and understand that the website is about golf clubs. Make sure the quantity of the keywords you are promoting is high.  Google will detect keyword density and move your website ever closer to the desired number 1 page results spot!

 

Tip #2: Quality Content

 

While keywords are important, having a website that is nothing but keywords after keywords after keywords is not the way to go. Google is extremely concerned about quality content. Both you the webmaster and the casual surfer appreciate this. When searching for golf clubs, you want to see a quality site on golf clubs, showing specs, prices, different brands, etc. What you do not want to see is a website that says nothing but golf clubs over and over again. Therefore, Google not only looks at keywords but looks at content. Google’s customer is the web surfer. And the web surfer wants content.  So, Google includes quality content in their search engine algorithms as well as keywords.

 

Tip #3: Update your Content

 

The more quality content you have, the better. But it is also important that you update your content. It is quality information that originally gets surfers to your site. But it is the continually updated content that keeps them coming. Would you go to the movies if theatres only played one movie? No. People love variety, and though your website may be about golf clubs all the time, what surfers want is your  golf club site to include recent information and news about the golf club world. They need specs on the latest club technology. More users will come to the site and potentially click your Google AdSense ads. 

This does not mean you have to update your website every day. Many Google AdSense practitioners we talk to update their content once a week but no later than twice a month. If you can update your content every day, well good for you and your free time! But many AdSensers use AdSense for parttime income, and once a week is sufficient to keep your website relevant.

 

Tip #4: AdSense Format

 

If you are adding AdSense to blogs, chances are the blog site mandates certain sizes of their AdSense ads. However, if you developed your own site, you can create custom sizes for your ads. Google adds a step in their wizard for creating AdSense ads of different sizes. A lot of research has been done that shows wider ads are more successful than other sized ads. Below are the three most popular and successful ad sizes.

 

160×600 wide skyscraper

300×250 medium rectangle

336×280 large rectangle

 

Tip #5: Choose your Color Wisely

 

Another step in the AdSense creation wizard allows you to choose the color scheme for the ad. Your ideal solution is to choose colors that blend into the color scheme of your website or blog. The background and border color should be the same color as the most prominent color on your website.  We have had better success with black for the text color no matter what the text color on the website is.  If not choosing black, the most dominant font color on your site should be used. Another major tip is to not use background or border colors. Experience shows that ads without background colors or borders get more clicks than ads with background colors or borders.

 

Tip #6: Layout and Positioning

 

Surfers do not browser the Internet looking for AdSense ads to click. Although that would be great to the AdSenser, surfers browse the Internet looking for quality content. Who knew! It is best to keep your AdSense ads in subtle but obvious locations. Though this may seem counterintuitive, it is not. The subtleness comes from the natural flow of the website and the placement of the ads. Say, you have a page of ten paragraphs. Put two ads at the end of the third paragraph and another two ads at the end of the sixth paragraph. A surfer reading the page content will eye the AdSense ads in a natural manner, during the course of regular reading. That is ideal. So, the placement of the ad is subtle enough that the ads work in the flow of the page, but the ads are obvious enough that they will be viewed by visitors.

 

Tip #7: Maximize the Ads

 

Google does not allow unlimited ads. This prevents Made for AdSense (MFA) sites or Free for All (FFA) sites from posting nothing but ads. Google has set a maximum of six ads per page, three AdSense units, two AdSense search boxes, and one unit of ad links. Maxing out your limit does increase the potential for profit, provided you are using the previous 6 tips. 

 

In summary, use these 7 tips wisely. Keep them in mind when creating blogs or websites and adding AdSense ads. You will find that your click through rate increases, and your profit increases as well. Happy AdSensing!

Home Business Marketing with Social Media

Home Business Marketing with Social Media

Home businesses thrive in the online world. You really can’t afford to ignore the literally millions of potential customers your home business can get online.

 

But that’s quite obvious. What isn’t so obvious is marketing your home business with social media networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and  blogs. Here are 5 crucial reasons to market your home business with social media.

 

Facebook #1
Estimates vary on the size of Facebook, but this social networking site may be the king for the next few years, especially in comparison to the slowing MySpace. MySpace is excellent, with hundreds of millions of subscribers, but if you had to choose between marketing your home business on Facebook or MySpace, your best bet is Facebook. You have 400 million subscribers and growing.

 

Twitter Growing:
Twitter is  not nearly as big as Facebook or MySpace, but it’s growing exponentially. It’s now well over 30 million active users, and the rates of growth are high. You only get a sentence or two to market, but Twitter marketing and Tweep Searches make finding new prospects relatively easy.

 

Network as a Freelancer
If you’re a freelancer, networking on sites like LinkedIn can create new jobs for you. More and more freelancers are running successful home businesses using social networks to find new clients. Since so many businesses use social media to find contractors, it makes sense to focus your attention on creating unique Facebook pages and getting friends on Twitter.

 

Marketing for Free
Social networking isn’t always free, but really the basic home business only loses time when marketing. There are many free marketing tools on MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. Creating an account on most social networks is free of charge.

 

Only a Billion Hits a Day – Remember YouTube
YouTube wasn’t mentioned, but this monster deserves some attention.. A recent statistic estimated there  are 1 billion hits every single day on YouTube. Some creative businesses are setting up trailers for new products. Novelists are hiring book trailer experts to get an edge on the competition. And home businesses are using how-to videos to show expertise in their industry. You can too.

Multivariate Testing With Google Website Optimizer: The Final Word?

Multivariate Testing With Google Website Optimizer: The Final Word?

Katie B. asks MrOptimization:

Hi Mr.O!

We’ve been looking at MVT vendors for months. Our team narrowed it down to one that we think will work best for us.

Then our CMO goes to a seminar where a Google Website Optimizer consultant presented and now he’s all Googly-eyed.

What’s the final word on Google Optimizer for Multivariate Testing and Targeting?

MrOptimization responds:

We’ve been meaning to sit down and write up the final word on Google Website Optimizer for a long time.

This question comes up at least three times a week and we’ve seen it play out from all angles for years.

Thanks for giving us the kick we needed, Katie!

Take the time to read through this and you’ll have the final word!

In the beginning…

Up until recently, Multivariate Testing and Targeting was the exclusive domain of the dominant species on the Internet, those who’ve evolved to the upper limits of the digital optimization maturity model. These are the big, profitable sites like Amazon who don’t make a habit of telling everyone how they keep their digital edge.

Multivariate Testing Power to the People!

Then Google released Website Optimizer in 2007. Like Mr. Ford before him, Google’s Mr. Schmidt wants to drag formerly exclusive technologies such as Multivariate Testing down from the rarefied air so everyone can use them.

In Mr. Schmidt’s words, he wants Google’s products “to serve all potential users of targeted advertising.”

Yay Eric! Google gave it the nod and now everyone’s started thinking about Multivariate Testing.

BUT, like most mass market versions of formerly high-end products, Google Website Optimizer is not really “free” or enterprise-grade, so you’ll need to consider a few points carefully before you make it the center of your optimization strategy.

What IS Google Website Optimizer, really?

Like Omniture’s Test&Target — born Offer-Matica in 2004 — Google Website Optimizer was designed for one purpose. In the years since its birth people have twisted, kneaded and bent it to try and make it fit a variety of roles.

And while that’s all true, Google Website Optimizer is really an add-on to AdWords. Specifically, it’s designed to help AdWords customers get better ROI from the landing pages they send all those expensive clicks to.

Nothing wrong with that since doing Multivariate Testing of any type benefits everybody, but just make sure you’re able to live with Google Website Optimizer’s limitations before committing everything to such a narrow technology.

Google Website Optimizer PROS
Run true multivariate experiments

Google Website Optimizer supports both basic A/B/n experiments and full multivariate experiments.

The complexity of designing and operating tests is hidden under the simple web-based Website Optimizer interface.

Full factorial AND fractional factorial methodologies

Despite popular belief in the Multivariate Testing and Targeting goober community, you CAN do fractional factorial experiments with Google Website Optimizer.

In case you’re not familiar with this terminology; in a nutshell, “full factorial” means “test everything.”

Fractional factorial testing (as seen in the popular Taguchi method, for example) basically means “test SOME of the variations and use the data you collect to form conclusions about ALL of the variations.”

Fractional factorial methods let you infer conclusions for a larger set of variables than would be possible in a reasonable amount of time if you tried to test every possible combination with a live audience.

No technology costs, contracts or commitments

Run a test on just one page or go wild and test all over the place.

As long as you can manage the Google Website Optimizer tagging and have time to plan and manage your tests, you can dabble a little or dive completely in to Multivariate Testing without signing any contracts or cutting any (direct) checks.

Use it on multiple sites

Extending the “free” theme, Google Website Optimizer lets you run experiments on any of your web properties.

You can kludge multiple site testing together in a single account or set up different accounts for different web properites.

Test multiple conversion types

Another misconception about Google Website Optimizer is that it can only do “Page A to Page B” conversion tracking.

While “Page A-to-B” tracking is the standard way of tracking successes in Website Optimizer, if you have access to reasonably competent front-end engineers they can hack up conversion tracking for just about anything (clicking on links, submitting forms, time-on-page a/k/a “engagement” etc.)

By the way, some of the enterprise-grade Multivariate Testing platforms also require code hacks if you want to do any sort of advanced conversion tracking beyond “Page A-to-B”.

Limit your “at-risk” traffic

Google Website Optimizer is easily configured to limit the percentage of your traffic that gets sent into tests.

This limits the traffic you’re putting “at-risk” and can be changed at any time through the web-based Optimizer interface.

Bear in mind, though, that lower “sample size” equals longer tests. How much longer will depend on your traffic, the number of variables and the current conversion rates on areas you’re testing.

Auto-kill obvious losers

If you’re testing a bunch of variations and it becomes clear that some of them are tanking your overall successes, Google Website Optimizer can “auto disable” the sucky ones.

This gives more traffic to likely “winners,” getting the benefits of their higher conversion rates while possibly finishing the test sooner because now you’re distributing traffic to a smaller set of variants.

Exportable reports

You can export Google Website Optimizer reports in PDF format for distribution and relatively easy inclusion into other documents and even dashboards.

There’s no slick automated way to do this like you find in many of the advanced Multivariate Testing and Targeting platforms, but with a little clicking around it’s good enough for most.

Integrates with Google Analytics

While it’s not something easily managed in the Google Website Optimizer interface, your tech resources can customize your Google Analytics tagging to pass information to Website Optimizer and vice versa.

This functionality compares well with the integrations offered by the enterprise-grade Multivariate Testing platform vendors.

Includes an experiment duration calculator

Google provides a Website Optimizer calculator that predicts how long your experiment will need to run.

Just enter the number of factors, page views per day, percentage of visitors routed to the experiment, current conversion rate and desired lift percentage.

Of course, most of the enterprise-grade Multivariate Testing vendors have similar calculators.

GWO won’t kill your natural SEO

You’d think you wouldn’t be penalized by one part of Google for using another part of Google to improve your sites, and you’d be right.

When search engine spiders crawl a site, they just skip over the Google Website Optimizer-generated versions and index the “default” (control) content — EXCEPT with A/B/n testing (see CONS below.)

Once you discover a winner and publish it through your content system, the Google search spider will then crawl the new version on its next visit.

This is also true for all the major Multivariate Testing platforms.

Social media has turned into a backbone for many businesses today. For instance, investors find it easier to advertise and market their properties through Twitter.

Get going with high Google ranking

Get going with high Google ranking

Get going with high Google ranking Google’s ranking is objective. Results are difficult to tamper withThe growing popularity and hence the widening marker share of Google is an established fact. Google has outgrown the competition and has set industry standards for others to emulate. Google believes that when any user comes searching for his or her query on Google, he or she should get most relevant and quality results. And this is probably how Google has maintained its sanctity as a formidable search engine to reckon with.

To dish out meaningful results to searchers on the web, Google has adopted a methodology called search algorithm which takes care that filtered results against the search criteria are as “honest”, “objective” and “easy” (Google’s own terminology) as is possible using cutting edge technologies at its end.

One of the intriguing aspects of Google’s search algorithm is that it keeps on changing. However, what does not change is its commitment to serve the users in an impartial and meaningful way. One can well understand the arduous challenges Google took head-on when it became operational as a search engine with this vision.

This is not unexpected that in such a massive operation, discrepancies and flaws would creep in. Google did have its set of flaws in the initial years and web masters played around the loopholes for a better ranking. In an attempt to prevent such maneuvers in future, Google fixed the bugs in search algorithm as and when they came to the fore. And, best of all, it adopted a highly dynamic methodology to rank the pages and this methodology changes a bit before the flaws become general knowledge for all to tamper search results.

Notwithstanding all such aspects, getting a good placement on Google is not an enigma at all. Though it could be a mystery for people who intend to cheat on the Google. Google specifically mentions what it looks for while ranking a web page, and what it takes to be on the high search engine results. This is true that whatever is written on this page are at best broad guidelines, but one can learn to formulate such placement strategies as are in conformity with the spirit of Google’s search algorithm.

Scaling new rankings on GoogleAs no one can deny or debate the indispensability of some good rankings on Google, so there is a point to learn the secrets of this great advantageous possibility of your web site on the Net.

Let’s discuss how to go about it

Go for quality inbound links

It is held that the greater the number of links you manage to get at your web page, the greater is the possibility that your web page will be ranked high on Google. But it should be kept in mind that link or links pointing at your web page must be relevant, related and meaningful. Basically, nothing but these are the characteristics of a link that qualifies for a quality link with respect to your web page. There is another advantage associated with it: Google rankings of the web pages whose links you have displayed at your web page contribute its little bit in the ranking of your web page. Simply put, quality links are fairly good means for optimizing your page.

Make your title tags relevant

The title tag of your home page is crucial for your web page. As is common understanding, the title of a page speaks cogently about what is to follow in the ensuing page. When it comes to Google optimization, it is equally significant as Google does read title tags and then proceeds to the page for content evaluation.

So, crisp and concise title tags that relate to the core focus of your web page or better still title tags that are identical to your chosen keyword(s) are helpful for optimization of your page.

Decide your keyword(s) and determine its density

Basically, keyword is the word with which users are likely to search in Google in order to reach you and you too have it on your web page. In other words, you decide what your page is all about in a few words, keeping in view with what sort of words users are likely to search for your page or similar pages on the Net. Like for example, if your web site is into offering web design consultancy and service, you can settle down with the keywords like web design, web site design, web development, web design consultancy and the like.

Keyword density is the ratio of number of occurrence of your selected keyword(s) and the total number of words on the web page. As is evident now, the more a keyword is repeated on the page, the higher the keyword density.

But there is a word of caution here: though good keyword density is taken positively by Google, mindless dumping and clustering of keywords resulting into content chaos may deteriorate your existing ranking or even your site may be banned. Remember a good keyword density is never a two digit figure on a web page; it could preferably be four to five i.e. keyword can safely be repeated four to five times on the web page for better results.

Some Google friendly considerations for a good rankingIncorporate the links on your web site with keyword(s) if possible

Google’s founders have revealed that if the links placed on your web site also contain your keyword, then there are pretty good chances that your web site will be ranked higher as against that keyword. So, linking strategy has got double advantage for your web page optimization. Firstly, the relevance of the link on your site, and secondly the presence of keyword on that link is crucial respectively. If combined together, they go in strong favor for a higher Google placement of the page in search results.

Hence, if you are thinking on some truly helpful strategy to optimize your page, why not to adopt this linking duo to push up your Google ranking.

Use ALT tags on images

Be it known to you that Google does index the Alt tags and texts contained therein. Therefore, if you use various images on your web site, do not forget to use ALT tags and give relevant content. It is likely to give your web page a boost in terms of ranking.

Some people do not use Alt tags on images simply out of sheer ignorance. This is, of course, will not be the case with you anymore. Will it be?

Put a link to your dynamic pages

Contrary to other search engines, Google is compatible to index all your pages including dynamic ones. However, Google’s ability to read your dynamic pages depends on the fact that whether a link is there or not to them. Once you provide a link to your dynamic pages, Google will index these pages without any apparent difficulty.

It is recommended that you do not let Google to escape your dynamic pages due to mere lack of a supporting link.

Avoid using Meta tags

Google does not take into consideration the Meta tags while indexing a page. Thus, spending time and energy on carefully using Meta tags makes no sense. Instead, exploit your time and resources on the strategy that works, like ones which have been discussed up to this point here in this article.

Lesson

The only lesson that works in matter of high Google ranking is the lesson given by Google itself. Keep your eyes and ears wide open to sense how you can be Google’s algorithm friendly to sustain your competitive edge over others.
