An experienced Internet Marketer [ by ypduvedi ]

If you are an experienced Internet Marketer, chances are that you would have used or heard about Brad Callen's SEO Elite software. It's an excellent SEO link building tool to boost your home business ideas to help you achieve high search engine ranking quickly and easily. I have yet to buy this product mainly because it's pretty expensive and I wanted to look for an alternative software which is equally good but more affordable. I came across a free SEO tool, which does almost everything that SEO Elite does and the best part of it is that it is free! The software is called Webceo (www.webceo dot com)
This SEO tool helps you find keywords, find your link partners, optimize your pages, manage PPC campaigns, shows your link popularity and gets you informative traffic reports. That's quite a lot for something that you get free, don't you think?
I found this free SEO tool easy to install even with my old computer and I was able to start using the seo software after about 30 minutes as the software download does take a bit of time. The first thing that quite impressed me was the voice-simulated tutorials made available to you in learning the various topics provided as training. I did find myself replaying some parts of them until I really understood each topic. (thanks to the sweet sounding female voice doing the on-screen training)
Although I don't own SEO Elite, I have read from people who have used it for link building that it actually does everything SEO Elite does and a couple more and it doesn't cost a thing. One criticism some of them have is that it is not as user friendly as Brad's software. Unfortunately I am not able to make this comparison and to me this free SEO tool is simply amazing. I would think that a little unfriendliness in the product is acceptable to me since it is free and serves my basic SEO requirements for my home business ideas anyway. I believe that products given away free are not necessarily bad or of lower quality. Giving away something free is often the way that people sell a product with an upgradeable program as in this case. The business owner or product creator uses this free SEO tool as a marketing investment to generate more sales on other core products and services.
To give you a better understanding of what you can expect from this free SEO tool, here is a short summary of some of the main features of this SEO software:
1. Find Your Niche
Find Keywords: It helps you do niche keyword research and you can build a list of the most relevant and effective keywords in order to optimize your home business site.
Optimize pages: Tells you the changes you should make to your pages to help your home business site rank among the top 10 listings in the search engines.
2. Promote Your Site:
Submit URL Get registered with the best search engines and directories. But my advice and that of many other SEO experts on this is it is not recommended to submit your URL to search engines. Instead, since your site is new, it is recommended to obtain some back links from relevant theme sites and do lots of blog comments. This should help to get your new site indexed much faster by the search engines.
Find Link Partners Find your potential link partners. This free SEO tool has a feature, which allows you to select your targeted keywords that you are presently ranking. Evaluate those websites with similar theme with their page ranks listed for you. You can now start to manage correspondence with the site owners to obtain their links. A suggested text is also provided for your email communication with your future partners.
Manage PPC Campaigns Lets you take full control of your paid search engines. New account registration with the search engines. Add datasets for your accounts and lets you manage your PPC accounts very easily.
3. Analyze Your Home Business Ideas Website
Check Ranking Show your current search result positions of your website for the targeted keywords in the search engines. You can use this feature to monitor how your Home Business Ideas site progresses over time.
Analyze Link Popularity Tells you the number of links to your Home Business Ideas site found by the search engines. The free SEO tool shows you who link to you but more importantly who your competitors are. Take full advantage of this important information on hand to increase your link popularity.
Traffic Reports Provides information about your visitors and shows you how profitable your site is. Discover which ad campaigns are doing well.
4. Maintain Your Site
Control Site Quality
Check your Home Business Ideas website for all types of errors and correct them - missing ALT attributes, broken links etc
5. Get This Free SEO Tool Although I have just started using this software and therefore not used all the features the results look real promising and I found it easy to use too. I think it's a great link building tool to have if you want an excellent free SEO tool for link management for your home business. As for me I can say I have found an alternative to SEO Elite, to boost my home business ideas. And it's free!

Your website with search engine appeal [by SUNNY KATARIA]

Building your website with search engine appeal - or search engine optimization - is more art than science but experience has shown that there are some very useful guidelines. The question is, why bother? With effective optimization you'll attract free website traffic that the search engines will send you. Free traffic goes a long way towards not only making your site income-generating but, hopefully, profit-generating as well.
With search engine optimization you might even receive a high traffic volume. Let's just say you have a conversion to successful sales with 5 to 10 percent of your traffic. If you get a hundred hits or more a day, you get a good number of sales already. If you get only twenty or so hits a day, you only get one or two sales if any at all. Higher traffic, especially if it's free, means potentially higher revenue.
Search engine optimization involves a variety of methods for making your site appealing to the search engines, such as having relevant keywords, title and content. It also helps to have other similar sites linking to yours. The aim is to have your site listed in the search engine results and apearing in, preferably, the first two or three pages. The higher the better. This will ensure that your site is displayed in answer to public inquiries as being possibly relevant. In turn, this increases public awareness and directs more traffic to your site - traffic that could lead to potential sales, revenue and profit.
There are many locations on the internet that can help you improve search engine optimization, including those that help in tracking keyword phrases. For instance, the free Yahoo/Overture Suggestion Tool, as well as many commercial keyword analyzers. There are also some content writers and article directories that can provide suitable keyword-laden content for you.
However, most people performing a search examine only the ten top results, which are on the first page. Those entries further down the list languish, with little attention. So making it to the top three pages is a barometer of a site's success in search engine optimization as you will get more people clicking through to your site when you have a higher ranking on these pages. And, as mentioned, more traffic means more business for you.
As you might have guessed, search engine optimization may require a fair bit of work to be fully realized. For instance, researching the keyword phrases that are popular for your niche or theme.
You may also need to rewrite your site's contents so that you get the right keyword phrases in your site without making it too awkward to read. There are useful guidelines that can be followed to assist with this.
Also consider collaborating with other web sites to obtain link exchanges and page transfers. Having inbound links definitely increases search engine appeal. Possibly the best way of gaining these is to write quality articles on the subject of your website and submit them to article directories for others to use. This generates desirable one-way links from those who post your articles on their websites, and they have usually selected your article because of its relevance!
When you need help just search the internet. Tips, guidelines and methods for search engine optimization are abundant and easily found. There are also many articles freely available that can help you optimize your website. Just posing the question on Google or inquiring at your favorite article directory will quickly locate some of these. The more informed you are the better. But resist the temptation to buy ebooks when so much free information is available.
This all helps in getting those high rankings. It may require a little time and effort but the benefits can be astounding.
E-commerce is a cut throat business. You have to arm yourself with the knowledge and tools needed to make your site a cut above the rest. Each day, more and more sites clamber for higher rankings and, if you get careless, you may just get trampled and be left in cyber dust.
In recent years, and in the foreseeable future, search engines have been the most widely used internet sources of information. Use them well and prosper.
However, even with effective optimization in place, don't just rest on your laurels; it is a continuing process. Check your ranking from time to time and also have a good look at what the top sites for a keyword are doing. Why do they have a higher ranking? What do you have to do to secure the top spot? Each day is a new day for all e-commerce sites or, as Scarlet O'Hara said: "Tomorrow is another day!" Building your website with search engine appeal - or search engine optimization - is more art than science but experience has shown that there are some very useful guidelines. The question is, why bother?
