10 Awesome Google Search Tips and Tricks to Improve Your Finances, Investing and Productivity Knowledge

Google plays a big part in my life and my blogging  business. Apart from it’s Adsense  publisher program which provides the bulk of this blog’s  income, Google’s search engine provides the basis and background for a number of the topics that I write about. I am not alone with 70% of the world using Google Search for most of their search and online questions. However there are a lot of cool features around Google search that can specifically help you improve your knowledge and understanding of the finance and investing world. Rather than just type in the search words, use some of the following “super” search tips to make you more productive and perhaps even grow your bottom line. Best of all – these are all FREE.

1.  Use Google as a personal finance and investment dictionary. Not sure what a structured settlement is or what term life insurance is. Then use the “define:” operator to return definitions from various dictionaries (for example define: capital gains tax). So rather than return a whole bunch of sponsored search results, you actually see a straight definition.

2. Key economic Indicators – Want to know the unemployment rate in California, GDP of American vs China or population of Brazil (if investing in one of the Brazilian ETF’s) then just use google to get this data instantly. Type unemployment rate CA (13%) or GDP America (.6 Trillion) or GDP China (.33 Trillion). A cool site I found when researching this article was US Debt Clock, which shows all of the key US economic indicators (in real time) for America. Some big numbers.

3. Use the “site:” operator to limit searches to a particular site. I use this one all the time, and it’s particularly handy because many site’s built-in search tools don’t return the results you’re looking for or have a decent site feature. For example, even though I have a search feature at the bottom of this page, you could search content on my site specifically by using a search phrase like: Another Extension to Home Buyer Credit site:savingtoinvest.com

4. Google Finance . The reason that discount brokers like Zecco and TradeKing can offer ultra low stock trading rates less than five bucks is that they do not need to spend a ton of money on research offerings for their customers. That’s because savvy, cost efficient investors can find pretty much most of the public information and recent news articles on particular stock or investment at sites like Google Finance. Want to know the latest news and market data on Apple (AAPL). Go to Google Finance and search for Apple or the ticker AAPL. On the results page, you can click the link to see more data from Google Finance such as free options quotes viaMorningstar. You can use the Compare tab in Google Finance to track the performance of several different stocks or indexes at one time, or to give you a better idea of how different stocks are doing. Also, see all the blog posts on your favorite stocks in one place.

5. Use the google search box as a calculator. Google has a built-in calculator — try entering a calculation like 110 * (654/8 + 3). Yes, your computer also has a calculator, but if you spend most of your day inside a browser, typing your calculation into the browser’s search box is quicker than firing up your calculator application.

6. Get quick currency conversions for your currency trading or that overseas trip. Google can also do currency conversion, for example: 100 pounds in dollars.  If you would like to convert minor currencies, be sure to be specific about the country. So, if you want to find out how many nuevos soles your dollars might buy, you could try: 100 dollars in Peruvian nuevos soles.  You can also do unit conversions for pretty much any measure as well via google search. For example to figure out how many pounds 3 kilograms is equivalent to, type in the phrase 3 kg in pounds

7. Find the Best Prices at Froogle.com. Looking for a deal on that item you want. For example, I recently purchased a ASUS 1005PB Netbook (see my netbooks review) and to find the best price I did a froogle search. Aamzon had the best prices and after checking at various other shopping portals, turned out froogle was spot on. Google Shopping is another specialized
google search product worth checking out for some real-time bargains.

8. Flight Tracker.  To see flight status for arriving and departing flights, type in the name of the airline and the flight number into the search box.  Eg Type UA 893 and you will see recent flight times. This is a much more efficient way than going to the airlines websites and trying to find the flight status page. Also if you are on your mobile, google search is much, much faster than a flash enabled airline website. As a frequent flier this search has definitely saved me time (and money) over the last few years.

9. Build a blog and some passive income with Google Adsense. If you are interesting in blogging or putting up an informational website then Adsense is probably the easiest way to make some extra money on the side. You make money via people clicking on the Google hosted ads on your site. I found that visitors that come through Google search are the best for revenue opportunities because they are looking for something specific. It takes time and traffic though to build up a decent income but it is very much possible. In 2 years I went from about p/day to a personal daily best of 0 through the Adsense publisher program.

10. Find and Search for images. Looking for that particular image in a presentation or for invitations. As the old saying goes an image can tell a thousand words and Google Images allows you to search millions of images. Just make sure you pay attention to the copyright and attribution rules for the owner of the picture.

Bonus 11. Collaboration via Google Docs. This is one I have been using more and more. After reading the 4-hour work week, I decided to take some of the productivity advice and get a virtual assistant to help with managing some of this blogs administrative and SEO activities. However working across different countries was challenging and sending documents could
cause version control issues. This is where google docs came and I was able to create shared a documents and spreadsheets which I am able to share with multiple people all over the world. It is safe, feature rich and free. Another use is if you are doing a shared budget. With Google Docs you and your family can track and update income/expenses in one shared place.
Searching across the documents is also much easier!

Google Adsense Tips and Tricks

Google Adsense Tips and Tricks

Copyright (c) 2008 Phillip Booker

I’ve been on the trial of new ideas and methods to increase my own Google Adsense earnings.

As I did the research I came across some strange realizations about myself. Some of the simple and easy web site amendments I’d forgotten to implement. This threw up a question mark over my own ability to remember. I laughed and realized that hopefully such foolish errors shouldn’t happen again

A few simple ideas that came to mind, that so often I had forgotten were these:

When constructing an Adsense web page, it is always best to start with the keyword or phrase that you’re intending to use, and use it in 6 important places. Google considers these six important areas when deciding which adsense ads to display upon your site.

With that in mind, we don’t want irrelevant adverts being used upon our websites do we? Otherwise nobody will click on them. What’s the likelihood of someone clicking on a ‘Property For Sale in Italy’ when they are looking for a property in London? Here are those 6 important considerations that Google use…

Priority one – is to use the key word in the website page name ‘cum’ extension. Don’t use for example – yourwebsite.com/page003.html – it should be – yourwebsite.com/your-key-word.html.

Priority two – is to use the word or word phrase in the html ‘title’ meta tags. That is Adsense Secrets. In Microsoft Front Page every new web page built is initially given by default, a meta tag of – New Page 1. This needs to very specifically your word or word phrase only.

Whilst we are on meta tags I’ll mention ‘Priority 6′, albeit out of order. The key description has been abused in the past where people have been adding 200 keywords in the tag area. Just build a page specific to the key or phrase; and put the key alone within that tag : . Many search engine optimizers have argued whether this tag has much use anymore. I’m one to say, better safe than sorry.

Whilst still on meta tags it would also seem prudent to mention the word or phrase in the meta tag description. Whilst it will not add to your SEO or your adsense directly; indirectly it will. Here is an example – Such a description is what the search engines pick out to display in the listings. A good description including your key will attract people to click on your website link.

Priority three – heading tags. That is the h1, h2 etc … Avoid using a heading like this: Today’s Special Offers. You would be better including the Google-Key within the title, like this: Today’s Best Deals on Property in London.

Priority four – making your Google-Key bold. Your Google-Key or phrase density should be between 2 to 5%; any more than that and you may be accused of spamming your Google-Key. On a page with a 1,000 words, I would say that making every keyword bold maybe too much. Just make the first two mentions of it bold, and then the very last mention bold.

Priority five – making you keywords either italic or underlined. Intermingled with the bold it is good to italicize sometimes and underline another.

(Note: For readers… My density for the word ‘keyword’ was too high for this article, so I’ve used slight variations. Proof if you ever needed it that too many mentions of one word or phrase could be considered as spam).

I hope this journey I made was helpful to you too, something so obvious, but easily forgotten. It makes tweaking your site worthwhile again.

Tips And Tricks On Using Twitter For Business

Tips And Tricks On Using Twitter For Business

Micro-blogging through Twitter is a popular way to market your business. Since both small and large businesses can use it, it levels the marketing playing field. Here’s how you can increase your customer’s precense on Twitter.

Here are four tips to use your Twitter account effectively. Following other Twitter accounts that are in your target demographic will help you get an idea of what the conversation is. Then you need to post updates about your company, brand or product. As with any online medium, you want to be very careful to never spam any of your followers. Lastly, make sure that you follow successful online marketers, and look for other participants who are in your industry.

First Build and Account for Twitter Marketing

The first thing that you should do is to set up your Twitter account and populate it with several interesting Tweets, which are Twitter posts. Then begin following people who are also using Twitter, and you will find that most people will follow back. When your entire Twitter feed has blanks, though, most people will not bother to follow you. Once you start a micro blog post, you can get on with following any target demographic, and this can be done in either of two different ways.

1. Go to Twitter.com and do a search by typing in keywords that relate to the demographic that you are targeting. For example, if you are trying to sell an application for the iPhone, you would enter the keyword ‘iPhone’ or ‘iPhone app’ or anything that may find people who own an iPhone. It’s easy to follow people. If your posts are interesting and relevant, you will probably pick up some followers this way.
2. Use ‘Find People’ to locate other Twitter accounts you want to follow. Then enter your keywords, related industries, locations or other defining detail to locate followers, and begin following them.

Twitter Marketing Uses Current Information

By adding news that is interesting and relevant about your services or product, you can keep your Tweets current. You can also add information about related news for your industry to keepTweets interesting and informative. For example, if you sell cooking gadgets, you may want to post news about food and recipes.

As you work on developing your targeted demographic, you need to keep your followers engaged, so you will want to tweet, or post, often. If you see a tweet from another Twitter follower, retweet them. This is another great way to pick up new followers, and when they start to follow you, you also are plugged into their followers. Retweeting is one of the fastest ways to build your following or network.

By checking with the search.twitter.com frequently you can look for brand names and see what customers are saying. You can follow these Twitter accounts and thank them. You can address customers who are angry or dissatisfied by following them on Twitter. Then you can retweet them and solicit solutions to the problem. Your customers will be thrilled with the feedback from you, and even more thrilled when you rectify the situation. Twitter makes it easy to grow a ‘word of mouth’ reputation virally.

Twitter Marketing and Spam Do Not Mix

Spam in any electronic media is the kiss of death. If you begin spamming your followers, they will drop you like a hot potato. Whatever you do, don’t spam your followers. Spamming includes tweeting the same URL over and over, annoying Twitter handles, frivoulous tweets, and only posting information on your own products. Twitter followers are savvy consumers, and anything deceptive or patronizing is going to leave a bad taste in their mouth.

Twitter Marketing Can Assess the Competition

If you want to build a quality following, then follow quality people on Twitter. There are many online marketers that are experts on Twitter like Dave Peck, Chris Brogan and Guy Kawasaki, and they should definitely be included in your list on Twitter. Also look for corporations that are active on Twitter. They are blazing a trail with their marketing, and you can get good marketing information from them.

Make sure you check out your competition. See how they are going about increasing their own following on Twitter. If you want to be a smart marketer online, then you need to constantly be aware of what your competition is doing out in cyberspace. You have a huge marketing opportunity if they rarely post on Twitter, never retweet, or attend to negative posts.

Twitter Marketing Requires Patience

When you are using Twitter as part of your Internet marketing plan, you need to give it time to work. Twitter results take a while to appear, because it is one of the more long-term strategies. You will have to build up your networks and following, and if you use the correct strategies, it will happen in a timely manner. However, do not start a Twitter campaign if you are not going to see it through to completion, because an unattended Twitter account is worse than no account at all.

Once you have built a good Twitter following, then you want to market with a gentle touch. Instead of using ‘in your face’ marketing tactics, pose a question where your product or service is the answer. Tweet that there are updates on your company’s blog instead of trying to cram the information into your tweet, and people that want to know more will click through to your blog.

Always resond when your followers tweet you. If you do not keep up with your following, it will begin to crumble. If you have too large of a following to maintain, then outsource your retweets or assign an employee to monitor and reply to your followers.

Twitter is an interactive marketing tool, and because of this it is valuable in two ways. While it is instrumental in getting your message out, it is also hugely helpful in taking the pulse of your customers. So make sure that your Twitter marketing efforts start strong and more importantly stay strong.

One of the most effective tool to enable your PPC Advertising campaign to run, is the use of optimum keywords. Keywords are the prime source of any search in the search engines, hence, until and unless the websites is optimized for the keywords in the search engine the ranking process does not take place.

Optimization of keyword in the PPC Advertising camp is based on the bidding technique. Bids are placed on keywords and payments are done on each click through.

If the content is too flat and uninviting, not many people will click on it.

There are mainly two ways in which, you can write the content of your site, first the compelling way, which means that you call the compressor by force and the other is the alluring way, in which you attract the user with your features, your keywords and most importantly text.

Get Higher Search Engine Rankings Tricks

admin    Google     Engine, Higher, Rankings, Search, Tricks

If you’re building a new website, or just wish to ameliorate the natural search results of an existing web site, there are some web marketing secrets you need to grasp – especially those that may offer a heavy boost to your positions.

Marketing mavencks begin with Google

I’ve seen assorted stats, but one thing is obvious, Google is the major player of search – commanding roughly 60% of all search site traffic volume. Ask any marketing professional where she or he would spend their search engine optimization efforts and they will definitely say’Google’. Do your maximum to rank well on Google. If you’re an established business, possibilities are that your internet site has been up for at least a year. Google enjoys seeing lastingness and responsibility. If you plan to be around for some time, register your domain for 3 years and show Google that you are in business to remain.
Optimize your default page for a Keyword Phrase

You have got to use the right keywords if you want your site to arise at the head of any search result list. This can be tricky because most individual keywords are very competitive. What should be done then? Another internet marketing tip is to use a keyword phrase, not simply a single keyword. To do so, pursue these easy steps :

Visit the Google search tool. This particular tool provides accurate info on how many individuals typed in a specific search term for the month before.
Type in your keyword and pay attention to other keyword recommendations. Choose some of the keyword phrases to evaluate. The higher number of people looking on a keyword phrase typically means that it’ll be harder for you to get excellent placement for that phrase. A good number to target, re monthly keyword phrase searches, is around one thousand – 2000 per month.
Type in Google the keyword phrase you’ve chosen. After that, notice the total number of results which appears in the right side after your search. This is the quantity of net pages that are related to this keyword phrase. You want to find the keyword phrase that commands the biggest number of monthly searches ( step two above ) and the smallest number of rivals.

On Page Optimization

If you’re planning to rank high for any keyword phrase, you need to create your on page optimization. Specifically, your use of H1 and H2 tags, page title, alt images, bolded text, italicized text, underlined text, and keyword vicinity. The web promoting secret here is to copy your competition and do things a little better. To do so, type in your keyword phrase in Google and visit the top five sites ranked one by one. Have they included the keyword phrase in their page title? Does the keyword appear in bolded text? Italicized text? Underlined? Is the phrase placed in the first twenty-five words on the page? How about the last 25 words? You’ll need to replicate what the best competitors for that keyword phrase have done and develop upon it. You do not want a promoting savvy to show you how to do what I’ve just told you, simply replicate the best and evaluate each point noted. Shape your website to make an appeal to Google and other key search engines.
Off – Page Optimization

The final online marketing tip you need to learn is the significance of off-page optimization. This refers back to the number of backlinks pointing to your website, the PR rank ( coming from Google Page Rank ) of the websites linking to you, and the anchor text of the link. There are a few straightforward things you can do to start developing an aggressive link campaign targeting those sites that link to your competitors – for the keyword phrase you have chosen. The best advice I can offer you after all is to research SEO and link building software on the internet. This will permit you to make the best of your time and target the best sites to boost your link popularity. I’ve certainly learned over the previous couple of years that your efficacy in this area is ultimately determined by the tools you use and effort you exert. Take my word for it, you do not want to build your links by hand you can never get ahead – so research options online. You have some tips on my sites. Once you begin developing links, you’ll need to monitor them on an ongoing basis.

admin    mySpace     Generate, Hordes, mySpace, Traffic, Tricks

The main purpose of MySpace is to widen your social network. So what is the purpose of you having an account on MySpace but all you have on your network is just your relatives and close friends? This would defeat the purpose of having an account in the first place. If you are wondering if there are any MySpace tricks to generate hordes of traffic to your profile page, the answer is a resounding “Yes!” Here are 3 MySpace tricks that you can use to generate hordes of web traffic.

1. Friend list

You may be wondering how some MySpace users develop a friends list that has over 1000 people. Most of these MySpace users do not have 1000 ‘real’ friends. In fact, most of these friends are made online, through MySpace . These people have internet-socializing skills that enable them to make friends through the internet. Making friends over the net may seem difficult to some people but once you get the hang of it, it will become as natural as breathing. As time goes by, you will eventually get to meet more friends online This can be contacts made from your real life friends or virtual friends. The ability to make friends is very important as well. Some MySpace users fear rejection whenever they make a ‘friends’ request. With adequate time and experience, this fear will slowly dissipate.

2. Web profile page

Generating web traffic to your profile page provides you with an opportunity to market your product or service. All you need to do is apply a little marketing strategy on your profile page. The more people that are exposed to your profile, the easier it will be for you to market your product or service. Fortunately, setting up the marketing tools necessary for MySpace marketing is essentially a ‘one-off’ affair. Once you have developed a marketing system, minimal maintenance is required. Once your website becomes popular, many people will take notice of your website and all you have to do is to keep your profile page updated with the latest information so that those people will be kept updated.

3, Overlooked advertising tools

To make your MySpace profile more attractive, you can simply utilize several simple, but often overlooked internet advertising tools. Some people might think that if you look good, all you need to do is to take a good looking picture of yourself and you can generate lots of views on your profile. This theorem is not applicable in all situations. Having a good or attractive display picture on your profile might drive people to your profile but subsequently, it is how you present yourself on the internet that will determine if your profile page is a successful. There are many MySpace users wrestling for attention. To remain relevant you must stand out from your competitors and one way to do so is to use internet advertising tools actively.

The social networking explosion is a phenomenon that many of my clients ask me about. In order to drive more traffic to your website, you should consider using the above mentioned MySpace tricks to promote your product or service. Fortunately, there are many other ways tap into social network phenomenon. To learn more about the tricks of the trade, you should consider investing in high quality methodologies that have been tested extensively.

How to Start Business in Russia: Tips and Tricks

admin    Google's Nexus One     business, Russia, Start, Tips, Tricks

OVERCOMING OBSTACLES OF ENTERING THE

RUSSIAN BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT

The new emerging global business environment has focused the attention of business and manufacturing enterprises on the largely untapped potential of the Russian consumer. The road to a successful enterprise in the Russian business environment is, however, a series of obstacles—both cultural and governmental. Before proceeding to do business in Russia one must be prepared for the following steps:

Functioning in Russia

The new or existing business enterprise must first decide how it will function in Russia. Affiliate companies are subject to a lot of restrictions from accreditation, licensing and so forth — most of which must be renewed periodically as required by the government. Independent companies fare better being subject to fewer restrictions. The independent can enable a business office and staff in a relatively short amount of time allowing the beginning of business at an earlier time. A Russian professional is necessary to accomplish this step at terms most reasonable and timely to the business. It is unwise to expect to accomplish this task without professional assistance from within the country.

Marketing and Research

Generally speaking marketing and research as provided throughout the EU and the Americas will be of little value to the enterprise hoping to reach into Russia. The cost of this general information will be money not well spent. The main concern to the new business hopeful will be to get and grow distribution arms within Russia. Restrictions, requirements and difficulties associated with Russian Customs Services, and reliability of cost efficient delivery systems cause Russians to avoid directly purchasing goods from outside the country. If you do not know someone connected with the Customs Service do not hope that you can negotiate this process to a successful and profitable result. Russian distributors have the necessary contacts to eliminate this obstacle. The simple truth is that without these distributors in place no goods or services will ever reach the Russian consumer level. Make distribution contacts first.

Certification in Russia

Most Goods imported to Russia are required to get certification for conformity to Russian standards, norms and rules. The certificates have to be produced, at least, in the following three cases:

to Russian customs, when goods are imported into Russia.

to Russian authorities when goods (whole- or retail-sale) are sold on a Russian market.

to Russian authorities when a product comes to use in Russia.

This “assessment of conformity” ensures the product’s characteristics to safety requirements. Variety of the requirements arises from the existence of different sources of danger: general, hygienic and fire requirements, requirements to the medical production and building materials, radiofrequency, electrical and industrial safety requirements, etc. Certificate of conformity (sometimes is called as quality certificate or certificate) is a result of testing and assessment of testing of the product for conformity to the safety requirements, determined by standards, norms, regulations, etc. Assessment of conformity is carried out by experts of certification bodies and other special state bodies. Knowing which of the eight certificates is required for your product, and getting the testing accomplished to the satisfaction of the certifying agency, is best handled by someone with contacts in the area of certification.

Presentation in Russia

Now it is time to come to Russia to present your product line to potential customers. Make arrangements first to maximize your time. Have a professional with good contacts organize and arrange a schedule that will place you in front of the most potential buyers in the least amount of time. Identification of prospective buyers for your products is key. Everyone’s time is wasted to present products that do not conform to the buyers market sector. Furthermore, do not expect that you will get time with buyers without prior arrangement.

Another viable option is to participate in trade exhibitions. Participating in exhibitions is quite important for most companies. For some it’s a way to make new contacts and discover new technology. For others it’s a way to introduce their products and estimate their potential in a certain segment of the market. If you are familiar with the East European mentality and languages you can perhaps make these preparations yourself. If not, we suggest you allow a specialist from the host country do some, or all, of this work for you. Find someone who will:

Help to choose the exhibitions which best fit the goals of your company.

Reserve space and arrange stand construction.

Prepare for exhibition participation.

Provide travel support (hotel, transfers, etc).

Organize traffic to your booth and schedule meetings.

Provide translation-interpreter services before, during, and after exhibition.

Arrange for printing of exhibition brochures and other exhibition publications in Russia.

Post-Presentation Services

Now that you have met your buyers and arranged for distribution you need to secure these relationships through written contracts, and maintain good working relationships and efficiency of service through direct communication. Russians always prefer to speak with Russians. Be certain that you have available to you professional and reliable Russian representation for the purposes of easy communication. When in Russia do as the Russians do.

Don’t let these things prevent you from participating in the business revolution that is happening in Russia. There are buyers, distributors and consumers eager for your products. The problem is only to find them. Each of these obstacles is solvable when you engage the assistance of the right people to help you. Whenever possible it is always most efficient to try to locate a company that can successfully address all of these issues on your behalf. To take services from more than one source creates a break in continuity which is both time consuming and expensive. This is avoidable, and this should be your goal. A company that operates in both Europe and Russia will be your most efficient choice. Russia is a new participant in the global business environment. It has much to offer those who know how to avail themselves, and Russia will equally benefit from the partnerships created.

Google Search Tips And Tricks

admin    Google     Google, Search, Tips, Tricks

Most of us use search engines as a regular part of our daily routine both at work and home. Many of you probably have no idea that you can easily do a lot more with search. Invest 5 or 10 minutes here and I will help you open up a new world of search using Google. I promise it will be time well spent!

Did you know that you can limit your Google search to a specific site?

Let’s say you would like only to search the CNN/Money site looking for information on “Ford”. All you need to do is… ford site:money.cnn.com

People tell me all the time that I need to add search to my site. While I agree and have not gotten around to it I always tell them that my sites are well indexed by the search engines and that they can search my site today. For example… “credit card” site:everydollarmatters.com …currently yields 33 page hits.

Is your search as comprehensive as it could be?

If you are researching the term “website development” did you know that you are potentially missing a bunch of other good sites? There are over 1.1 million indexed pages using the term “web site”. Try… “website development” OR “web site development” …and you will get back the top pages using both spellings.

Maybe you are searching for a decent tutorial on html or an online course. Try… “html tutorial” OR “html training” online

Or (no pun intended), you might be shopping for a forum in some areas that are of interest to you.
”living green” forum OR “global warming” forum

OR is a nice expansive google search operator.

What can you do to narrow down your search?

Sometimes you are looking for a specific phrase. For instance… “getting your website online” yields 1230 pages as opposed to getting your website online which yields 114,000,000 million pages Using quotes around the phrase will limit the result to that specific phrase.

Maybe you are researching the JFK assasination. You could search for… “kennedy assassination” “kennedy assassination” video.

You can also limit your google search to specific areas of the internet. For example:

*Google Book Search – Search the full text of books
*Google Code Search – Search public source code
*Google Scholar – Search scholarly papers
*Google News archive search – Search historical news
*U.S. Government – Search all U.S. federal, state and local government sites
*Universities – Search a specific school’s website

To access this functionality just click on the “advanced search” hyperlink on the Google homepage. You will find these options towards the bottom of the page.

Often times you will receive page hits back that you are not interested in.

Suppose you were searching for the term six sigma and wanted to exclude all references to General Electric and Motorola. You could use the following search string… six sigma -ge -motorola -”general electric” … The “-” minus sign is used to exclude certain keywords or phrases.
