The Yahoo! Directory is a powerful tool for any SEO. A listing there can boost your traffic from devoted Yahoo! users and gives you a strong link to reinforce your SEO efforts. How to get a listing in Yahoo! Directory? That part is rather simple, you need to submit your listing and pay $299. Within 7 days your submission will be reviewed and if accepted you’ll get a nice listing with a link to your website. The initial $299 is a review fee, so if your listing is denied you’ll lose the money. If accepted, you’ll incur the $299 fee on annual basis. The fees (both review and annual) are $600 for adult websites. But how to get a free link from Yahoo Directory!
Well, there is a rather simple way, although it is not guaranteed to work. What you must do first Continue reading “How to Get a Free Link From Yahoo! Directory”

Burger King Facebook App
What happens when Burger King decides to use Facebook as its base for a new online marketing campaign? 233,906 people lose their friends… not real ones of course – the ones on Facebook.
What’s this all about – Burger King launched a promotion for US only, where you could install a Facbook application developed for Burger King which gave you a coupon for a free whooper after you deleted 10 friends from your list. You could of course add those friends right back on, but the idea was to show that you are willing to sacrifice friendship for a whooper (uhmm… yeah right).
People at Facebook apparently didn’t like this (surprise, surprise..) and disabled the application – after 233,906 friendships were “lost”. Continue reading “Sacrifice Your Friends – Viral Marketing By Burger King”

Google Analytics New Features
On December third, I went to a Google Analytics seminar in Google’s Chicago office (a very NICE office I might add). I always thought that I was getting close to a 100% from Analytics – boy was I wrong! That’s especially true in the light of recently added features, such as motion graphs and advanced segmentation.
I think every internet marketer, SEO or a webmaster should take a closer look at Google Analytics and what it can do for you. First of all it is a free, web-based service that gives you very in-depth data about your visitors. You can find out exactly who, when, and how got to your website and more importantly what was it that hey did while on your website. Continue reading “Google Analytics – A Forgotten Gem From Google”

Search Engine Optimization activities can be divided into two sets of ongoing processes: on-site optimization (ways of building and improving your website) and off-site optimization (outside factors, such as links from other websites). These techniques may be further divided into “good” SEO, that is accepted by the search engines, also known as “White Hat SEO Practices”, and the bad, techniques, such as spam, link farming, etc., that can get your website penalized or even banned from search engines like Google or Yahoo.
