The SEO Effect - SEO Philippines Congress 2006

Last night was really one of the best SEO party i have attended so far. Aside from getting to know the big shots in the blogcon playfield and the marketing buffs involved in Adsense and AdWords of Google here in the Philippines, i am glad i was one of those who took a first glance of the Filipino Google consultant Miss Aileen Apolo to preside when Google starts to break the glass of the slow moving SEO and Search Engine Marketing arena here in the Philippines.

Many of those who were able to attend were SEO buffs that had signed up by posting a comment in Marc Macalua's blog. I'm proud to be one of them. The main sponsor that night was Lakeside Technologies represented by a certain Christine (as far as i can remember) who was earlier introduced to me by my brother.

She is also the presiding host that night and is so very busy ramping up and down the stage and the whole place Jill's) at The Fort. My first time in that kind of place and it had made me wanna go for more beer which is by the way all expenses paid by the kind sponsor.

I asked too many questions to my brother who is a veteran in the SEO and SEM arena here in the Philippines. I could remember a few of those questions but the most important thing that night is i guess the party (actually some sort of a congress) made come up with a more stiff decision to make sooner my exit in the link building outsource work that i am in right now and go full time with SEO and Search Engine Marketing major in AdSense and Adwords.

The actual congress which is about the plans of Google here in the Philippines and the new major Philippine SEO contest that will soon be launched with a pot money of 300,000.00 PHP. Before the contest announcement and the actual discussion about Google's setting up a campus here in the Philippines, me, my brother and his colleagues were already a bit high in spirits with the beer we have been able to consume before the slides came up in the walls.

There were lots of gossips filtering out in every corner of the bar that night but the least that me and my bro expected is the way that the contest details had turned up, which for us is a bit out of line with regards to the allotted amounts of prices for the firsts to rank high in the Big 3 search engines. Guess what the keyword target is? It's ituloy angsulong.

Imagine having a price of 60,000.00 PHP by ranking first in Google with the keyword that i have mentioned above? I believe anybody could earn that amount in say 3 to 4 months in AdSense alone which makes the offer unacceptable by the best SEO, SEM's here in the Philippines.

They should have made a bigger, one way offer to give to the best and the first to rank in the that keyword in the 3 biggest search engines namely Google, Yahoo and MSN.

When Getting Forum Link is One of The Best Link Building Strategy

Has anyone really realized that having forum accounts and posting in those forum sites is the best backlink building strategy that any SEO or SEM professional can apply in link building strategies.

This has always been the best way to promote and build massive links to your business websites and it has been proven by most experts in link-building and traffic generating tactics in the internet.

Of course, the first step in doing this is to have accounts in different forum sites related to your business website and at the same time having the time to develop great ideas for posting in your accounts.

Aside from the fact that forums have always been the fastest to be crawled by the search engine bots and spiders, they provide your business site the backlinks that you will need to drive more traffic to your site. After all, isn't link building the primary target of any website owner?

Furthermore, increasing traffic and visits to your site means a bigger and better ROI or return of investment which is the primary reason why website owners are putting much efforts and finances in link-building and traffic generating schemes.

Another characteristic of forum links is that to get one you only have to write a short, interesting and informative post or replies to existing threads and other posts. This way, you get more extra time for other link-building strategies to allot to.

As we all know, time is the most essential factor of improving and being successful in any business. This way any website owner has to incorporate this strategy in his/her link-building and traffic generating schemes.

Great and intuitive Search Engine Marketing specialists have always been on the lookout for other strategies and i have found some other ways myself other than those generic and ordinary ways to build links the proper and let's just say, the SEO way.

Shoemoney On Top of My List Again

Today i read Shoemoney's site again and i found his article so very useful this time. Sad to say for him because he is right now pending on his posts because of a case he got involved in though not personally on his dues.

I really liked his posts today although it has been months now since i never get to visit his blog because of the "unintentional spamming of my blog site from his". I just hope this time he gets out of this controversy that he is involved in right now.

I also like the photo he provided from his page today where he is showing his paycheck received from Google Adsense. Gets me going again to do some more researches and videos about Google AdSense.

In one of his posts, he talked about a certain latest happening about the Search Engine World on Danny Sullivan of SEW (SearchEngineWatch)and what he personally feels about one of the foundations of the search engine world and community today. For me its all the same, i don't feel sorry about Danny leaving SEW because i also happen to personally believe that Danny is not leaving at all, instead, he is given more time to concentrate on some of the more important things he wanted to do.

Not that i think he does not like SEW at all but instead, i believe that he deserves an applause and a recognition for his job well done while putting his heart in his forte.

I also loved the post he conversed about a certain Jennifer who had a case on Google adsense clicking in her own Ads.I personally believe that her intentions are clean because i myself has been tempted to do it before because i am virtually new to AdSense myself and i'm lucky enough that i didn't do it because my brother told me about the certain policies about Google on getting banned and suspended on your account if your are found to be clicking on your own ads.

Dynamic Keyword Insertion Tool

In case you don't know yet, the Google Dynamic Keyword Insertion Tool is one of the most handy easy to use tool in doing SEO for your own ads in campaigns like the pay per clicks. Most managers do employ using this tool with ease because they have found that it could be used in many ways to increase the chances of your ad getting clicked by visitors who browse for relative information about such keyword or keyphrases.

In your web copywriting, be sure to use the said tool and see the great benefits that it could offer for your revenue-generating ads site and campaigns. AdWords are technically for the purpose of earning income through driving an enormous amount of traffic to your site and this means that you ought to employ techniques which might either be as complicated or as simple depending on your campaign's need.

If your site has the traffic that it needs but as uninteresting as the other sites that people and visitors visit, then chances are that your site will be left of than those that uses techniques to convert visitors into customers and virtually earning a significant figure for you to enjoy.

In order to get the clicks that your pay per click ad needs, you must first be seen as something of a different other than those regular sites that visitors see along the sides. In achieving this particular uniqueness, your campaign ad must therefore be different than those conventionally seen ones. One way of achieving this is through the use of the dynamic keyword insertion tool.

Surveys had it that visitors and surfers have that F-formation attitude of looking at a web page. Meaning, they scan any web onpage they visit in a way that at first, they do it vertically down the left side and next is vertically down the right side.

You know for a fact that your ads are virtually located in either side, so chances are, all you have to do is to use a technique where you can be sure that your ad gets to be more likely clicked due to its uniqueness which makes the visitors catch their attention.

One way of achieving or getting the needed attention to drive to your ads, you can use "bold letters" which practically invite visitors better than those conventionally typed ads. You can prove this true by looking at examples that have the same headlines and providing one that is typed in a way using bold letters. Try surfing for some sites and look for the ads that appear in the sides and try comparing them, this will help you a lot in determining the effectiveness of your ads and maybe you could use the same technique in doing your own campaign. this is of course one of the simple practical ways you could follow in your campaign.

Another way to achieve more clicks in your ads is by using "descriptive words" along with your keyphrase. This way, you can be able to make it more attractive to the eye of visitors. Some sample descriptive words related to a campaign ad are "free", "discount", "cheap", "review" etc. Another way is to "make a headline that features the interest of the visitor".

It would be so awkward and corny to use headlines that doesn't pertain to or describe the kind of product or service that your ads are trying to sell so therefore you ought to provide a relation to it. Another way is to provide yourself with another ad campaign and be able to test which could be more effective and could provide you a margin on your earnings.

If one of the ad campaign is more effective by way of being able to get more clicks, then by all means, let go of the other. Of course let alone some time frame for your two ads campaign first, like, say some two weeks time or so depending on your budget.
