Welcome back to second post of Page one search engine ranking and the rest.

In our initial post of this series, we discussed the importance of taking your time to select your niche, keywords, register or acquiring keyword-specific domain names, and creating unique and value-add content.

All are equally important, but I’ve found it most important to have selected the correct niche and keywords long before a domain name and content ever came into consideration.

In today’s post, I’ll continue discussing the wide variety of SEO actions I’ve taken that have led to successfully ranking websites in the top spot across major search engines, and led to increase traffic, conversions, and revenue.

In addition, I’ll share a few tips and tricks for what not to do too.

Let’s continue our search engine ranking discussion.

Have you ever wondered about search engine ranking positions?

Is there a difference in page one search engine ranking positions and the traffic generated to highly ranked websites?

I mean, you hear and read all the time about people proclaiming the number one, two, and three search ranking positions driving exponential website traffic, conversions and revenue.

This is not to say that most or all of the individuals claiming page one search engine rankings are lying.

I think everyone has their story and results, but I would like to add the twist of search ranking niches.

In today’s post, through my own experience, I’ll openly share with you about a few websites I own and operate.

We’ll cover in great detail keywords, domain names, content, social media, search engine optimization (SEO) and analytics.

I’ll take you throughout a quick timeline from domain registration to page one rankings.

I’ll shed light on theories, mistakes, corrections and overall successes and failures.

Hands down, SEO tools are a must. No matter if you are performing SEO efforts yourself or hiring an SEO consultant or firm, it is imperative that you have the appropriate processes and tools in place to measure your SEO efforts to increase search rankings.

When starting to implement and execute search engine optimization strategies (SEO), it is imperative that you not only fully understand SEO and your tactics, but ensure that you have the right SEO tools.

It’s one thing to know about an SEO tool and a whole different story to intimately know the ins and outs of how to effectively use the tool.

I’m often asked by potential customers what types of SEO tools and software I use on a regular basis to achieve profitable and measurable white-hat results.

From simple tools to advance tools, I use and have used quite a few tools on the SEO market. Some of the tools I use are free or open-sourced SEO tools while others are paid annual or monthly memberships.

In today’s post, I’ll shed light on a few paid options for SEO tools that you can take advantage of. The tools we’ll discuss are based on my user experience.

In addition, links to the SEO tools discussed in this post are not affiliate links. Let’s get started reviewing SEO tools.

Ready, Aim… and FIRE!

That is the sound all website owners will hear going forward in regards to monthly search algorithm updates by search engines, more specifically Google.

Google has a furry little creature they have unleashed to the search world to combat deceptive SEO practices.

Most, if not all, website owners have come to cringe and grimace when hearing the name alone: Panda. No, not the furry and cut black and white animal, but the search algorithm.

As a website owner, whether your website has or has not been hit by Panda, you’ll definitely want to read this post in its entirety.

“Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don’t know which half.”

It can be downright frustrating at times to determine how effective traditional advertising is period.

However, determining advertising effectiveness and how potential customers arrive at your website does get somewhat easier in terms of SEO services and search marketing.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve said or thought the above words John Wanamaker spoke long ago about advertising.

More importantly, I receive daily calls and emails from potential customers wanting to know why search engine optimization or SEO services cost so much.

It can be a challenge to figure out and get a firm understanding and handle of the various attributes that contribute to the rising costs of internet or inbound marketing, more specifically known as search engine optimization or SEO services.

In today’s post, I hope to shed light on the various pricing methods for SEO services as well as briefly discussing the attributes to account for to determine SEO services costs.

When launching a new website, driving traffic to your website can be a challenging experience to say the least.

From pay-per-click or PPC advertising to banner ads to expired domains, just to name a few, there are a quite a few methods to consider when buying website traffic.

The biggest question I receive the most from customers is which method is the most cost-effective, yet will return the biggest results in terms of shear traffic volume and conversions?

As I’m sure you have experienced when increasing website traffic, most website owners find that it takes three or four times as long as thought to increase organic website traffic from a variety of resources.

From personal experience, I’ve found success in buying website traffic to supplement my SEO efforts to increase organic website traffic.

There are many online sources for buying website traffic, good and bad.

In today’s post, I want to focus on pay-per-click or PPC advertising, and how you can use PPC advertising as an effective tool to drive instant website traffic and increase your organic website traffic along the way.

If you’ve ever launched a website or managed and operated a website, then you will totally understand how much of a challenge it is to increase website traffic.

Of course, traffic in general is easy to increase as you can buy Fiverr gigs, pay a freelance website link UpWork, buy automated traffic programs and the list goes on.

But the real question is how much of the traffic can you convert into sustainable and profitable business?

All too often, website owners are guilty of being impatient and putting in the time and effort it takes to truly garner traffic numbers worth writing home about.

And as each day passes, the sea of websites in the online space are growing at a rapid rate, drastically decreasing your chances of monopolizing eyeballs on your website.

Of course, the ole’ saying is, “there are plenty of fish in the sea.”

There may be many fish in the sea, but again, not all fish are worth eating nor drawing near your website.

In today’s post, I’ll discuss why it is imperative that you don’t buy website traffic from certain online sources.

In addition, I’ll explore the sea of options for buying website traffic and how doing so can negatively impact your organic search rankings.
