An Easy Internet Business Setup
There is a hard way and an easy way to create a website and make money for your off-line business or on-line internet business.
The hard way to create income is to try and find out what works by trial and error, or by getting overwhelmed by internet marketing e-books. In other words, wasting a lot of time trying to figure out what to do.
The easier and quicker way is to use this simple formula to get traffic quickly and actually make money selling your own product or affiliate products. The secret is to use these following 5 steps to get traffic and make sales for your website or blog:
1. Add Content at Least Twice a Week to your Site
Make sure you update your website or blog with content at least twice a week.
This will help your site to get crawled regularly by the search engines and help you to keep your traffic growing as time goes on. Your goal should be to get a few visitors a day for each article you write. Once you've written 100 articles… you'll definitely get loads of traffic!
2. Use LSI to get your article found in the Search Engines
Make sure you learn to use a Latent Semantic Indexing tool to write effective articles. Download this LSI Tool today.
This tool will help you write articles which will be seen as very relevant to your topic by the search engines. Your article will then be found for many different keywords which your potential visitors search for.
3. Submit Your Site to Key Web Directories
There are key Web Directories you must submit your website or blog to when you first create your website. Search engines don't place much value on most directories, so you must submit to the ones they value. Here's a partial list of directories which Google values:
- Yahoo.com
- JoeAnt.com
- Gimpsy
- GoGuides
- WOW Directory
- Somuch.com
- BOTW.org
Most directories cost about $30 – $80. Only Yahoo costs $299 per year, which is worth it as Yahoo gives your site a tremendous authority boost with Google.
4. Use Quick Linking Techniques to Get Your Site Ranked Well
To speed up getting links for your website, you can go to Linkvana and 3WayLinks. These sites help you to get one-way links to your sites relatively easily.
They're not cheap, but will save you loads of time searching for links. And they'll help your pages get ranked a lot quicker.
Remember to comment on blogs and get even more links to your websites. Some sites (like my blog here) use the KeywordLuv plug-in which allows you link to your site with the keyword of your choice. Find a list of these blogs at http://www.untwistedvortex.com.
5. Additionally Create an Adwords Campaign
Make sure you always run a Google Adwords advertising campaign parallel to your search engine campaigns. It will always increase your traffic and your sales.

Great stuff, Riggie. Apart from what you have outlined above, I think one of the essential key to any successful website is being proactive in the niche community via blog commenting. You can't take that away from your marketing effort.

You're right Yan… I'm about to write another article on commenting on blogs soon.
Great site you have at thoushallblog.com. Keep up the good work!

Hi Riggie,
Just a few observations: I think is Gimpsy, a typo there
Also I would stay away from link brokers
And you forgot article syndication which works great if is done properly
Cheers
Thanks for the compliment, Riggie and the same respect is due to you too.

Yan Shall Blogs last blog post..Net Strife – The Making of Internet Marketer
Some great info here and I'm looking forward to your article concerning blog commenting. For instance, you mention that it's ok to use keywords as a name in this blog, but I assume this is not always the case. Why is that?
Also, there seem to be disagreements about when and how often to post content to a blog. I think it makes sense that adding too much too quickly is a bad thing, but where is the sweet spot? You mention adding content at least twice a week as a minimum, but what is the maximum?
Looking forward to any feedback.
Thank you.
Are you sure that buying links will not be punished by Google?Lots of people say that buying links is not a good idea.

Thanks for a lovely informative post. i found every thing on this post which i was looking for. I am glad that i come across your article. Great work Riggie Freyer. You ROCK!!
Interesting write up with some good ideas that I will work on. Thanks for sharing it.
Nice post. Like the way you write the article. I came to know lots of things through this article. Thanks for a great post.
Have you used websites like Linkvana to get links yourself? Does it generate good quality links? I am always a bit sceptical about things like that so its good to get a few experienced opinions.
Nicks last blog post..Work Injury Claims
Thanks for great tips and a wonderful post. Really liked your writing style: to the point and very interesting. The links you mentioned in your post are very helpful. Thanks once again for sharing such a lovely post
Hi Nick,
Linkvana works very well and yes, it does generate good quality links.
Articles written and linked to via Linkvana create solid traffic in my experience.
regards,
Riggie
Thanks Edward… I appreciate your compliments.
-Riggie
Yes, buying links is not a good idea in most cases.
However some memberships such as Linkvana allow you
to create links in such a way as to not create any red flags
with the search engines, as they are natural links and
not set links within a "system".
-Riggie
My article on Blog Commenting will be released tomorrow.
Thanks for asking these questions… I'll answer them all
in the article…
-Riggie
Hi Mike,
Thanks for your comments…
Yes, you're right, absolutely stay away from link brokers…. it seems
as though Google has got them observed very closely.
And article syndication does work well too… will do some tests soon
and let you guys know how well it works.
-Riggie

Dang, looks like ill need to have a grand or so in order to start things out the right way
I guess if theres no risk, theres no potential.
Great information! Thanks for writing this. It is an honor to participate in the discussion.
Thanks for the response Riggie, i will give it a go and let you know how i get on.
Thanks for the LSI tool!
Anytime I can get my hands on a time saver I consider a day not wasted
Thanks again

Great Info. I enjoy reading your articles.
Women's Jeanss last blog post..Rock and Republic Jeans for Women
I think this is a great list of strategies to get traffic but I do think SEO and social networking would help build traffic also. You really have to know what you are doing when using Adwords too or it will cost you. Great post.
mekas last blog post..Earn Free Money and Prizes Online
This is great material for helping a business begin it's online presence. Most people think they can just throw a business website up online and it creates "instant" business. This is not the case, as you have presented. Thanks again.
Aarons last blog post..Political Discussions in the Workplace – Danger Zone
Mate, its easy to set up a business. But, its a pain in the butt to promote it!
does submitting articles to ezinearticles provide much benefit?
Submitting articles to ezinearticles.com still get you exposure and useful links to your site. So post unique articles to them and you'll surely benefit.
I usually just use Google Adwords Tool to find keywords for my articles, but LSI looks like the way to go for me. Thanks!
Dons last blog post..Basic Business Models to Make Cash Online
Interesting tips worthy of adopting. But those directories you mentioned are so expensive. There are far cheaper ones that provide quality back links as well.
Great, this will really help a lot. Well for quality we have to spend some bucks. What you say?
I am sure that you have seen Stomper's video on LSI lately – right? If not, best go take a look at theor blog for the video "LSI is Lame". Lsi was thought for so long to have a big impact on serps, but in reality it never did. Makes complete sense as well. A key here is to be willing to adapt quickly as things can change quickly in the internet business game.
what do you think? there seem to be disagreements about when and how often to post content to a blog. I think it makes sense that adding too much too quickly is a bad thing, but where is the sweet spot?
Neils last blog post..Your Charter Communications Business Class service
Yeah, your right, the hard way for the online business is create income to try and find out what works by trial and error
Very big time consuming and money consuming I think
Someone told me that using PPC costs you money while SEO is free. Now, I see. SEO is not free as well. To get a better rank, you have to pay for directories and tools. Nice article. Thanks.
I'm a regular user of 1waylinks and 3waylinks. These are highly automated to save much time. The links are only mildly effective however.
Do Follow blogs posts are also quite worthwhile although takes time to write decent and relevant comments. This is the only way to get and keep your comment link.
I have also constructed a large private network across multiple class C IPs. This save huge time in link building.
LinkVana is easy to use, however your posts get buried deep inside PR2 blogs.
Do you think its ever worth going for one of these turnkey online businesses you see being sold on eBay or are they a con?
I've always been tempted because they're so cheap but that also worries me. Anyone had any experience with them?
.-= wooden kitchen toys´s last blog ..Old Fashioned Toy Shop =-.
Generally I wouldn't buy any turnkey online business at eBay.
The best strategy is to do what you love and create a business
around your passion.
