It will open your eyes to why it is almost impossible to get the search engines to give you a high ranking. 99.9% of all affiliate programs which offer a web page or web site as part of the joining package, give what is referred to as a "self replicated" site or page. This means it is a page or site that is identical to every other member also in the same affiliate program with one very small exception. The only difference between all the pages is your affiliate number or email address. This is search engine suicide and despite what you may have been told, if you think you are ever going to get far trying to get these type sites listed high in the search engines, it will never ever happen.

Depending upon how long you have been on the Internet, you may have heard the term "mirror page". A few years ago, someone decided it would be a smart idea to take their index page (main page of a web site) and create multiple copies of it. They left everything on the page the same and just kept making copies like index1.htm, index2.htm, index3.htm etc. The next thing to happen was they upoaded all these copies to their web server and submitted each of these pages to the search engines. The results were pretty good until the search engines figured out what was going on. The search engines started working on ways to prevent this from happening to make it more fair to the Internet in general. The solution was for the search engines to give very poor ranking to those sites which were submited which exactly match other pages already indexed within the same search engine. The search engines send out what's called a "spider" or "robot" to index your web site when it has been submitted. This is all automatically done and can instantly tell when deceptive things like mirror pages are in place. The result is very poor ranking and huge loss of potential traffic and income.

SEO Explained By Google

Google now tells you how to rank? Unreal... Search Engine Optimization simply put is a changing of certain parameters on your site, and on other sites that direct traffic to your site. These strategies have been widely disputed, tested and developed by many internet marketers the world over. Google, being the 800 pound gorilla that it is, has basically dictated what the optimal site structure should be and how other sites should display your sites content. Most all other search engines have mimicked their overall philosophy. Up until now Google has been secretive about the specifications it uses to determine a sites validity. Below is information received from Google on how to properly "SEO" your site.

1. Create unique and accurate title pages. Put your targeted keywords in the title early and often i.e. target keyword: cell phones should be: "Cell Phones From Top Manufacturers" ALWAYS keep you title less than 64 characters to avoid the ellipses* after your title. This looks unprofessional and will decrease CTR**. Always always capitalize the first letter of each word... IT WORKS!

2. Accurate descriptive description. Ask a question, put a phone number, use the ® or ©. These things can be used in your title tag to to make your site stand out. What ever you do not overly stuff with keywords i.e. "We sell cell phone cases, cases, phones, charges etc. Make it a sentence. Because remember it does not mater how good you ranking is, if the content displayed on the SERP*** is no good, then people will not click through.

3. Improve your URLs. Do not smash all the words together in a URL. Use hyphens not underscores, why? If Google uses them and it good enough for their site, and its good enough for yours. i.e. BAD: example.com/cellphonecases.htm GOOD: Create a folder and call it "cell-phone-cases" then put your content page inside that file and call it index.htm or .php whatever. Your sites URL is now "pretty" example.com/cell-phone-cases/. This does not only look better, it ranks better. Don't be too long again smashing every keyword possible... be simple and descriptive. DO NOT use something generic like "page13

4. Make your site easy to navigate. Use breadcrumbs see the top of this page under the header image. There are many bread-crumbing scripts that will take your pages title and folders and create this effect (I will post these in later posts). You can also simply code them in yourself as they are just simple links.

5. Use a site map. A site-map is used to show all relative links for a site on one page. An XML site map seen here will be needed to submit to most search engines. The XML version does not have to be pretty, an optional html or php site map will be need if you want to show your viewers.

6. Have a useful 404 or error page. Google 404 Page Widget Give your reader a way to navigate back to your site.

7. Avoid sloppy writing with misspellings and grammatical errors.

8. ANCHOR TEXT... ANCHOR TEXT is the words in a link. This tells the search engines what the next page may be about. It also provides your viewers the benefit of knowing what you want them to view next, or visit. Put your key words in the anchor text Avoid: next, page1, category1 instead choose: blue cell phone, red cellphone cases etc. Keep it short and descriptive, do not have a whole sentence as a hyperlink. Make them easy to spot, do not hide them by making them the same style as your plain text.

9. Use the heading tag properly. This tells the search engine the topics of you site i.e. Cell Phone Providers

10. Optimize your images. When placing images on your site, use the alt image tag and make your graphic names descriptive. remember a search engine cannot see the words or shapes of your images... so tell them what it is.

11. Use the robots.txt file. Tell the search engines where and what to index and not index. For example, you dont want them to index your download page, right? Google also provides a useful too for that as well: Google robots.txt Tool Tips: disallow your internal SERPs to be indexed, near duplicate pages and URLs created by a proxy service. How to write a robot.txt file for Wordpress

12. Use the rel=nofollow tag. This tag will tell Google that the page you are linking to has no value. The search engines may index the page you are linking to, but will not pass any PageRank® or page reputation. You will want to use this on a page that has no importance i.e. contact us page, SERPs, about us page etc these are pages that probably dont make you money, so why have them rank.

13. Promote the right way through blogs, forums, social media, add you business to the Local Business Directories. You will find more information on the above marketing strategies incoming posts.

14. I cant end on 13... Use site analytics to see where, how and how much traffic particular actions are bringing you. Google Analytics offers this service free.

What Everyone Needs to Know About Self-replicating Web Pages

If some of you have read my earlier posts about Mack Michaels or visted MaverickGuy.com, you may know that he does not recommend a self-replicating web page and in fact encourages you to go out and get your own domain. Buying a domain is not nearly as hard as I thought it would be. In fact, it was much easier than I thought it would be..perhaps to easy.
