Most people look at search engines to find what they want on the Internet. To have your own website spotted, it needs to be on the first page of a search result. If your website is fairly new or unknown, getting it listed on the first page can be a great challenge.

Apart from having your website listed on the search engine, there are many other ways of getting lots of visitors to your website. Some people use traffic exchanges. The good thing is you will definitely get a least one visitor. The bad thing is you need to spend a lot of time surfing the other members site one after another under the constraint of a timer without any chances of choosing which one to view first in order to get back at least a visit. If you wish to spend less time on surfing, you have to pay a certain among of money to buy credits that can be used to get more visitors. For this reason, I have recently created a unique way that can help you greatly increase the number of visitors to your website. You can know more about it at www.nicepods.com. With this method, members can view one another’s websites via the Webbypod and the directory. Members can submit their sites under specific categories that allows easier search. A member can also know who has visited his or her website so that he or she can return the visit. This means when member A visits member B’s website, member A can expect a visit from member B in return. Each member must visit at least one of the other member’s website to keep his or her membership. On the first of each month, a member who views the most websites, and have visited at least 1000 of them, will become a Gold member who then can have his or her website listed on the Gold list to attract even more visitors.

The viewing of the websites listed on Nicepods by members is not restricted to members. Members of the public can also view the websites with the Webbypod and via the directory. Every member of Nicepods is given access an attractive graphically based Members Pod to manage his or her website submissions, and to perform activities to get more visitors. You can read more about it at http://www.nicepods.com/mpodnews.php.

Off course, there are many other “get more visitors” sites out there. The choice is yours.

If you have read the recent July Headlines you will see captions like-

* Microsoft Ambushes Google with Live Search Club, Search Share Surges
* Yahoo! squares up to Google in paid-search game

With the Big Three battling it out for the prize of % of market share one thing is not mentioned in this equation.

How much does it cost to create “Value to Market” and increase your Validation as a search engine returning quality results?

As with any industry with a high degree of growth, Search Engine visibility is still the master of profits for companies on the first page of Google. The difference in sales from Google rankings compared to Yahoo or MSN are not even comparable when you talk to medium companies who rely on Search Engines for their revenues.

I have really never met a company who said their business has been better influenced by Yahoo or MSN over Google.

Why does Google Dominate Search Revenues?

The answer is Validation.

It’s morning and John wakes up, same as he does everyday. He starts the computer and begins checking his email and reviewing his website’s stats. ” $15 in Adsense and 1 sale .. good, good… but still I’d wish those were $500 and 10 sales “. He closes the stats and goes to work in order to get the payment that helps him live a good life.

Mark is also waking up, making a cup of coffee and then sitting comfortably at his laptop. He opens his website’s stats and his heart starts beating a bit faster while he reads on the screen ” $399 in Adsense and 5 sales last night… good, but I WANT IT BETTER” “. He closes the stats, eats a quick breakfast and then sits back again at his laptop and starts working on his websites in order to improve the stats. He doesn’t need to go to work as his websites bring enough income to help him live very well.

Now the question is simple: who would you prefer to be? John or Mark? Do you like to go and work for your boss and help him make money so you can earn your living ? Or do you want to be your own boss and have your own business? Because yes, these days, having a good site IS a business. If your answer is “John” then you’d better stop reading this article and get to more serious things. But if instead you would prefer to be Mark then it may be useful to continue reading. Ok, ok but what does “having a good site” mean? I have a great design, I have great online support, great products and offers, great site functionality… but still I don’t get the expected income? If you ask yourself this than take 2 minutes to think about: “Who am I receiving money from? The design? The functionality of the site? No, what really brings the money is, in fact, the traffic, the people who visit the site and order the services/products or who simply click on the Google ads.”

Now that we found out that the traffic is what makes the webmaster happy, we should ask ourselves how we can get this traffic to our sites. Well, there are several methods of doing this, but nowadays, search engine optimization (SEO) is the method that brings the best targeted traffic. If you want to build a strong business which could provide you more than a decent income, than you should use SEO.

To succeed with a SEO campaign, one must follow three major steps: keywords analysis, on page SEO and off page SEO. The keywords analysis part has to be done in order to assure that you have picked the best keywords ( the ones that will get you the highest number of visitors in the shortest time ).

On page SEO is the step where changes are done directly on your site by modifying it’s files. You have to sort out the titles, metatags, images, text, page structure, internal linking, proper tags and much more things related to your site. In all this process you will use the keywords you found during the keywords analysis part. This will ensure you’ll have a well optimized site focused on those keywords.

Last but not least, off page SEO - considered by all the great SEO specialists out there the most important part of a SEO campaign - related to the external links you can point toward your site. As each link toward your site is considered “a vote” the more votes you have the more “powerful” your site will become.

If you do all these correctly then your site will end up in the tops of the search engines and start getting the best-targeted organic traffic that exists at the moment. So what are you waiting for? Go out there and start doing SEO…. Because SEO it’s the future.
