Suggest You - So What is SEO?
Salespeople are commonly told to sell “solutions” and “value” rather than just product features. But when the time comes to present their products, they fall back on generic scripts with no direct connection to any specific needs the customer has revealed. The customer winds up in a one-sided conversation, listening to the salesperson present too many low-priority capabilities.What salespeople lack is a structure for presenting products in a way that ties features and benefits directly to the customer’s expressed needs.Lack of structure in a presentation is a prescription for lack of perceived value.There is such a structure—Action Selling’s TFBR method (for Tie-Back, Feature, Benefit, Reaction). It lets you create sales presentations that communicate a compelling reason to move forward by connecting product features to actual needs the customer has already agreed upon. In other words, TFBR provides the answer to, “How do I sell solutions?”Solution: To present

THE 3 THINGS THAT YOU MUST DO?
<In a recent article [Web – An Information Market and its Market Makers], we viewed the web as an information market and analysed its market makers.Web market makers vary widely from small SEO (search engine optimization) consulting firms up to the Big three of the search industry. The maturity of these different types of web activity, varies substantially.The search engine market has reached maturity and is yielding major revenue streams to the big players. Consolidation in this market has started years ago with acquisitions by the major players (Yahoo!, Ask.com) and increasing market shares of the few major competitors (Google held more than 42% of the search space, while the big three held more than 80% in the US market, according to Comscore in mid 2006). The search engine market is expected to continue consolidating, though niche players active on certain vertical markets (e.g. real estate), shall continue independently. This is because the search market has characteristics
Indeed, I'm sure if you trawl through a search on Google for the term SEO you will probably find countless entries on the subject and herein lies both the explanation and the ensuing problem
Confronted by a vast number of websites to pursue one's search further, an average searcher will click on perhaps 20 websites to find what he/she is looking for at best
So what happens if your website is ranked from say 30 or 40 or a 100 upwards? The chances are you will be one of the very lucky ones if your website receives any traffic worth mentioning at all
SEO at it's very core if applied correctly is designed to rank a website/webpage, for a pre-defined set of keywords, at the very top of the search engine thereby ensuring that a particular website has more chance of being clicked on than that of its' competitor's ranked below it
This then should mean that a website having been thus optimised naturally rises to the top of the search rankings for those specific keywords. Alas if only life was so simple!
Notice, I did say if correctly applied but how do you know what to optimise and how much to do?
Badly cobbled together webpages with too much optimisation or indeed too little unfortunately end up being either buried in the deep recesses of the results or get shelved by the search engines altogether
WHY IS IT SO IMPROTANT?
Imagine that you have a shop selling ice-cream on a very busy high street full of other ice-cream sellers, each one offering pretty much the same thing that you are
How do you go about attracting customers over your competitors. The answer is that in the real world it is much harder to jostle for the number 1 spot without spending a fortune on advertising, marketing and company branding
Fortunately, in cyberspace given the same scenario the playing field is somewhat easier and a whole lot cheaper too
The secret is getting your webpages right the first time around so that you can take full advantage of table topping rankings and great traffic as a result

We are probably all aware at this point in our lives that many illegal aliens work at carwashes and even with the pretend crack down on illegal immigration and the outrage of citizens in the United States of America it is obvious that nothing has changed at the carwashes, they are still hiring illegal aliens.This has been going on for decades and having been in the carwash industry myself, I was always completely appalled by these violations our competition was committing against our immigration laws. You see in my travels I have also visited over 3000 coin-op car washes, 700 full service car washes, 3800 roll-over car washes, and even had my Corporate Command Center washed at over 100 different truck washes. Personally I have viewed the units of over 1000 plus mobile washing units and visited every other major manufacturer of washing equipment. I can tell you although my competition in the mobile carwash business generally did not hire illegal aliens, some where illegal aliens themse

With the current trend of setting up home businesses, it is still important to maintain a degree of functionality and professional appeal to your home office. After all, clients might want to meet with you at your office and you surely don't want them to see you slump in your kitchen chair.

<IntroductionKhadi is an Indian fabric. Khadi is also known by another name ‘Khaddar’. It is made by spinning the threads on an instrument known as ‘Charkha’. During pre-independence era the movement of khadi manufacturing gained momentum under the guidance of father of nation Mahatma Gandhiji. This movement of khadi manufacturing and wearing started as to discourage the Indians from wearing of foreign clothes.Khadi before independence was considered as the fabric for the political leaders and the rural people. But now it has found its way into the wardrobe of fashion conscious people. The current situation is that the demand is more than the supply. Earlier the type of khadi available was khadi cotton which had very coarse texture and feel. However many varieties of khadi like khadi silk, khadi wool and khadi cotton are available now, which makes it a fashionable fabric and likeable by the masses.Its concept was developed by Mahatma Gandhi. It was a symbol for political a

<My previous two articles “What is RSS and Why use RSS” focused on how we can give our customers a better online experience while lessening the hassles for the online marketer. In this article I’m going to offer you another way to look at RSS – from the standpoint of a new emerging profession: the channelmaster or newsmaster as Robin Good calls it. These are going to be the “Who’s Who” of RSS in the coming months and years. I remember when email was the new thing for the average person; everyone was excited about the “new” technology. It had been around for awhile in the tech world but not with the average person. When we all started using email, it was so fascinating to be able to send out a message anywhere and get an answer back the same day!Now everyone has and uses email and have even become addicted to its use. It’s as everyday as driving a car. RSS has taken the front seat in new exciting technology but people still aren’t exactly sure what it all means. That’s where the “Who Us

THE 3 THINGS THAT YOU MUST DO?
This section applies to every website owner be it well-established or a fledgling start up
1. Evaluate - Always put yourself in the shoes of your potential site visitor. Looking at it from their perspective ask yourself these questions: Does your website/webpage have the necessary content to attract and keep their attention? Is your message clear, well thought-out? Do you have a strong call to action?
At first this may seem a rather difficult or tedious process, but I always advise my clients to spend some time on it simply because even if you do enjoy top rankings it doesn't always necessarily follow that your sales will also increase as a result
In time however, this will become a part of your thinking process naturally and will stand you in good stead when you decide to launch a new product online or a new website etc;
The key here is to provide the client with what they came to your website for in the first place and in so doing stimulate their buying interest at the same time
2. Monitor - In cyberspace a lot can happen very quickly. I'm sure that almost everyone must be aware of utter havoc created by the Google Florida updates in November of last year
Just to quickly recap, Google started enforcing their guidelines and had grown tired of those website owners using "spammy optimization" techniques and having little or no real content
Google claimed that the change was all part of their continued efforts to improve their search engine results
Some people thought however that it was an over optimization penalty, others a bug perhaps. Whatever it was, Google had upset a lot of people in the process
Apparently, Google understands the fact that people's businesses rely on Google results. Craig Nevill-Manning, Google's Senior Research Scientist, said, for what it's worth, "I apologize for the roller coaster. We're aware that changes in the algorithm affect people's livelihoods. We don't make changes lightly."
Needless to say that the Florida update caught a good many search engine professionals and online business owners off guard demoting previously high-ranking sites and relegating them to the netherworld of Google's search results
