Member You - Good (SEO) Search Engine Optimization - Title and Meta Tags
List building can be such a wonderful way to make online income, but one of the most important things is keeping your email open rate high. If nobody is opening your emails, even if you have a big list, then your email campaign and list building efforts are not really going very far, are they? So the bottom line here is you have to get your emails opened.Now I covered emails #1 through #4 in Part I of this series of articles, now I shall tackle a few more.Keep in mind, that in writing these emails, you are writing to real people, you are writing to individuals with whom you have a relationship. You have to write the emails as if you are writing to real people – because you are.So at this point, hopefully your email open rate is still near 50% - if it is not, go into your email open rate stats and find out why. Is there one email where it really goes down? Ei
The keyword meta tag is believed one of the LEAST recognized meta tag by search engines. It carries very little weight when it comes to search engine optimization. However, it is not ignored by all engines. For example, through my own experiment, I have used a single keyword (like spaloof - which means nothing) that had very little if any results when searching for it. After being indexed, SearchBliss had appeared at the top of MSN. The keyword was NO where else on SearchBliss. Only in the keyword meta tag. This says to me that some search engines DO give the keyword meta tag some weight. So as a result, I still use the keyword meta tag.
I suggest adding your target keywords 3 to 4 times without REPEATING THE SAME TERM. This is viewed as "spam". Spam example: Swiss watches,Swiss watches,Swiss watches,... This is more commonly know as "keyword stuffing". It also applies to everything else being covered is these articles.
Here is a good keyword meta tag using the "SEO Tools" example:
Notice that the keywords listed 3 times (SEO & tools) are not only split up using other key terms, but are also never too
Are you interested in making some money on the internet, but don’t want to risk your own money or spend a lot of time for a small return?

Then when your referral registers with the poker room and begins gambling, you begin receiving a commission. This commission continues to gro
Good search engine optimization includes several factors that are explained in these SEO articles to help you achieve better search engine placement. Most of the advice given can be achieved almost immediately, where as other factors explained will take a lot of your time and effort. If you are serious about SEO then you're on the right track. Please note that the tips mentioned in these SEO articles are used by SearchBliss and some of the information stated is merely our opinion.
Before you begin reading these articles, please keep this in mind. The most important advice I can give you is to build your web pages with your visitors in mind. We have all been to sites that "don't make much sense" as a result of webmasters targeting keywords that they have trouble placing into readable text. You can have thousands of web site visitors each day, but it is useless traffic when they exit your page out of frustration, and they may never return.
Targeting the Right Keywords
Choose the right keywords. This is extremely important. Optimizing a site takes a lot of time, patience, and hard work. Doing this targeting the wrong keywords can be devastating. Find relevant keywords that are searched for often. Make sure you target "phrases" rather than single keywords. For example, targeting "hosting" alone will not help you. There are too many search results. But targeting "web hosting provider", "web hosting service", and "hosting business" will get you more realistic results (and a ton of traffic). Plus you are still targeting "hosting". I would suggest targeting ONE "reach phrase" and TWO "realistic phrases". Three phrases may seem like a lot, but not when one or two keyterms is in all three phrases. When this occurs, things don't get watered down, giving better results.
Let's begin with the "bare bones" of SEO. Title tag and meta tags. Most search engines give little to no relevance to some of these, however, since no one really knows how they are factored by each engine, they are still important steps in optimizing any web site.
1: The TITLE tag
Here is an example Title tag which should appear in-between the
tags of your web page(s):The title tag is very important. Why? Because search engines not only give it value in relation to optimization, SE's use it in their search results. Search on ANY search engine, and you'll see the content of this tag used in the anchor text of the links for each web site. Here is a little experiment. Follow the Google link (opens in a new window) and take a look. Google Experiment
There are 28,100,000+ pages in Google with the title tag
So what should be in the title tag? The name of your business or web site with the "keyword phrase" you are targeting. For example, your business sells "watches". This is a broad search term and using it alone my not work out for you. There are 42,500,000 estimated search results in Google. However searching for the term "Swiss watches" I get 2,760,000 estimated results. The likelihood of your site appearing in the first 3 pages of Google is much more realistic using "Swiss watches". Plus, the keyword "watches" is still present, so you are actually targeting both terms.
Here is a good title tag using this example:
Keep it short and to the point. Targeting too many keywords can "thin out" your website's relevance.
2: The DESCRIPTION Meta Tag
Here is an example description meta tag which should appear in-between the
tags of your web page(s):The description meta tag is less important for optimization, but it is still utilized by the search engines. Google for example, will use the web pages body text, image alt tags, and yes even portions of the description meta tag will show at times. The body text and alt tags will be discussed later on in these articles.
So in my opinion, it is important enough to use. The best way to use it is to place your keyword phrase inside this meta tag "once", then split up the phrase and add the keywords again separately. But keep it readable, and avoid too many comas. This can be viewed as "spam", so don't do it or your site could be black listed and ignored by search engines all together. Also, use two sentences maximum and avoid "sales pitches" like "The best shop ever", and so on.
Here is a good description meta tag using the "watches" example above:
Notice that "SEO" and "TOOLS" appear twice, but the second time is split with the term "SOFTWARE" (SEO software being a secondary targeted keyword phrase).
3: The KEYWORD Meta Tag
Here is an example keyword meta tag which should appear in-between the
tags of your web page(s):The keyword meta tag is believed one of the LEAST recognized meta tag by search engines. It carries very little weight when it comes to search engine optimization. However, it is not ignored by all engines.

In previous parts of this series, I showed how using Google Adsense and other merchants’ affiliate programs will generate profits from your blog. However, there are even more options to monetize your blog. Here are a few to consider.The first option to consider is Chitika. What is Chitika you ask? Chitika is a very innovative contextual advertising program because it can serve very detailed advertisements to your blog that fit perfectly with your blog theme.For example, on your technological gadget blog, Chitika will show advertisements for tech gadgets such as iPods. They show them in different tabs: one for “Best Deals”, another for “Details”, another for “Reviews” and so on. This way, it is more of an informational section for your visitor rather than a blatant advertisement, and naturally the click-through will be higher. You can apply at chitika.comIf your b

In the United States we have made many mistakes with our industrial mining companies and without the flow of raw materials to market we cost our manufacturing industries billions per year in additional costs to bring these materials to the facilities from far away lands. It is a darn shame considering this huge nation from sea to shining sea, with enough resources to supply the world with raw materials. Oh what have we done?Well glad you asked because we have systematically condemned mining operations of nearly every possible material in this country thru abuses and over regulations. Our iron ore is some of the purest in the world and yet we import much of our raw steal with impurities in it from other nations. Same with copper, platinum, aluminum, titanium and so on; in fact in reading the long list you begin to cry at what we have done and the severe disadvantage we have put

There are a number of things to take into consideration before quiting your job. Quitting your job requires a plan of where you want to be. The first step in quitting your job is to put your mind into thinking through the process backwards. Anyone successful at doing this knows, that you first need to know where you are going. So to start, start at the end.As an exercise you can sit down with a pen and paper, and lock yourself in a quite place where you are relaxed, and won't be disturbed. I recommend grabbing your favorite beverage. Get focused, and then think what do I want. If that is I want to make $10,000 a month, and have 5 hours of free time with my family, write it down. One of things you need to put down, is that your residual income will exceed your take home income at your current job. Then take each are you wrote down, and drill it down into simpler steps.

Then the album shot to the top, smashing the record for fastest-selling debut album in UK chart history. The Arctic Monkeys have to be the sales success of 2006.So, where did they come from? Internet space, of course. But, perhaps the Monkeys can teach us a little about selling and marketing products effectively. Here are some of the things they did well. Could you apply any of these pointers to your business?Being likedIf a customer likes you, he or she is more likely to buy. What causes one person to like another? According to Sold!

Notice that the keywords listed 3 times (SEO & tools) are not only split up using other key terms, but are also never too close together. I do this by adding other keywords/phrases in-between the ones with the target terms. The term "SEO tools" only appears together one time.
There are also several other meta tags like the "abstract", "robots", etc. But I feel that there is no need to cover these. I believe they are not an important part of search engine optimization and have no use in these articles. Build title and meta tags now, then optimize your meta tags.
