These are some testimonials on some folks that have worked with me in United First Financial. Instead of hearing anything from me, I thought I’d get some testimonials from others that I’ve helped and worked with as Agents marketing the Money Merge Account. I thought it would be useful to hear a little about my expertise and genuine character from others. I am here to help in any way. Let me know if I may help you in any way. http://FastestDebtEliminator.com -Jarrett 336-558-5277

Search Engine Optimization

S.E.O. or search engine optimization is crucial to your websites success. The better you do it, the more hits you’ll get. There are many aspects involved. I won’t get into all of them, but I’ll share with you some great things that I have learned from very successful online marketers and you may do the research and reading on your own.

Things to learn, study, and execute on your websites are keywords, metatags, backlinks, anchor text, URL’s, keywords in the URL and quality content and services on your site, just to name a few. I am just a beginner, but I have learned a lot in the last year on search engine optimization.

Here are a few of my learned experiences:

1) Put your keywords in the title of your article or post

2) After you do your keyword research, put keywords through out your post at least 5-8 times

3) Use clickable (keyword rich) anchor text at all times, not a regular website .com link.

4) Link to lots of other major sites, especially when they are subject compatible to your post. You may also ask them to link to your site for additional backlinks.

5) Use All-In-One SEO Pack on your Wordpress blog or Google SEO Tools for your website.

6) Do your keyword research first before you post and follow the experts and what they teach and do.

7) Bookmark your posts with OnlyWire! Very important.

Don’t just write. Post videos and audio too (Podcast)!

9) Use TrafficGeyser to absolutely explode your content all over the net! Do it now!

10) Submit your articles with the #1 Mass Submitter and Article Spinner Automatic Article Submitter.

There are many great teachers on S.E.O. and P.P.C. or Pay-Per-Click marketing online. The most well known teacher is Perry Marshall. He created the 2009 and now the 2010 Adwords Definitive Guide Early Bird. He also made the Definitive Guide to Adwords, Guerilla Marketing System and his Adwords Course.

The other world-class creator of the greatest Search Engine Optimization software and information products I have ever seen is Brad Callen. Check out the #1 S.E.O. Tools on earth Keyword Elite 2.0 and SEO Elite 4.0..

S.E.O. is an ongoing learning lesson. You will continually get better as you learn more, adapt and gain the experience necessary to improve through ACTION. Experience will teach you the most and you should never stop learning. No matter what your knowledge level, the more you learn, the more income you will make. The most experienced and prosperous people I have met in Internet Marketing are continuous learners with an insatiable appetite for knowledge on the subject. Successful marketing techniques are always changing also with the market and the industry and you have to continually grow and adapt with those changes, or get left behind.

I hope these tools will help you propel your online exposure for your businesses into the stratosphere! -Jarrett

Blogging is taking off like a wildfire. People are blogging about  just about anything you can think of. From the daily routine of their cat, to technology reviews, to politics. Until the blogosphere sorts itself out and matures a bit more, it may be difficult to tell exactly how this new frontier of instant publishing can help you and your business grow. But don’t worry – you’ll start getting a flood of new ideas in the coming months.

Here is a fantastic Blog on How To Make Money From Your Blog.

For now, the most important thing you can do is develop the right mindset about business blogging. What you think about something, and how you strategize applying it in your business very often has more to do with success than the technology, tool, or resource itself.

With that in mind, here is the most important thing you can do. Keep your eye on people.

DO NOT get stuck on the “technology.” That’s what drove all the pie-in-the-sky dot.com dreamers into the financial abyss. It’s people and personal communication that matter most, and should always be a the center of all your thoughts, strategies, and actions.

Blogging is just a tool. But it’s a tool that can and should become a major support arm of your business. Why?

Because it exponentially multiplies the world’s oldest, most favored, and trusted form of information sharing — word of mouth. You may also see my blog post “ready to unleash the power of blogs in your business“.

Just ask yourself, whom do you trust the most to give you advice, recommendations, and information about opportunities, purchases, or choices? Someone you know and trust, right? Someone who you feel is just like you.

That type of trust comes from personal communication, social interaction, and the joining together of like-minded individuals. Blogging simply magnifies and expands that sense of community and more personalized communication, and then expands the reach across the entire world! The top two blogging sites for a Free blog are Blogger and Wordpress. Get yours today!

Link trust; with respect, positioning, and word-of-mouth and you have the makings of a powerful marketing arm that can initiate an ever-growing stream of highly targeted prospects.

Remember, it’s the relationships that matter most. Keep your eye on that fact, and you’ll always have the right mindset for business blogging that’s a benefit for you and your readers.

It’s been simmering below the surface for years and now this power shift has finally boiled over into simultaneous national recognition.

Like Goliath being slain with a lowly slingshot, the mainstream media (in the form of Dan Rather) came to the undeniable realization that they were no longer in control of information.

Within 30-minutes of that now infamous TV special on “60-Minutes II” broadcast bloggers were digging into the facts and questioning the validity of what had just been presented by the 42-year broadcast veteran. In less than one week, CBS admitted it could “no longer vouch” for the memos. And just weeks after the election, Rather announced his retirement and the blogosphere won another victory.

No matter what your political affiliation is, this incident is one very public example of the power of blogging. Blogging is quickly accelerating into a steeping, sloping growth curve of popularity and application. ABC News selected Bloggers as “People of the Year”, and Merriam-Webster declared “blog” its “word of the year.”

Putting the power of blogs to work for your business can have more an impact than you can imagine… and it’s easier than you might think.

It puts the power of information and the impact of influence in the hands of the “average Joe”. It makes instant publishing a reality regardless of your technical skill level. And it’s a business growth tool that the savvy small business owner can no longer afford to ignore.

The world’s oldest, most effective form of communication and marketing on steroids!

So why is blogging gaining popularity so quickly?  What’s the attraction?  And why is it so darn powerful?

The answer is quite simple when you consider history and human nature.

Blogging is an unstoppable technological force that exponentially multiplies the world’s oldest, most favorite, and most trusted form of information sharing — word of mouth.

Think about it.  Who do you trust the most to give you advice, recommendations, and information about opportunities, purchases, or choices?

If you’re like the vast majority of people, it’s the opinion of someone you know and trust. Someone who you feel is just like you. That type of trust comes from personal communication, social interaction, and the joining together of like-minded individuals.

Blogs and the blogging community deliver all that — and more.

Some of the biggest and most popular blogs in the world are iJustine.com, PerezHilton.com, Shoemoney.com and Authorityrules.com. ShoeMoney is my favorite with a TON of amazing information.

Now is the time to master business blogging and put it to use for you! Do it before other proactive business owners step into your ideal niche and muscle you out of this primetime opportunity.
