SEO Love With Internal Linking
Recent articles on my main blog have focused on the organic traffic you want from the search engines, and how to get it. I hope you have been following along.
Today, I want to show you a shortcut.
I say *show you*, because this little tip is best understood with a video where I can show you click by click and step by step exactly what to do. I reference a couple of sites in the video that will be linked under the video.
Just to recap the basics of SEO and inbound links though, you should understand that Google counts each inbound link to your post or page as a sort of *vote*. A pledge of support or an agreement from your peers (niche partners) that your content is relevant to the topic at hand.
However, a little known fact is that links from your blog also count as votes. Now, all this is just from an SEO standpoint, but there is another benefit to all this internal linking.
More eyeballs.
That’s right. Your visitor finds something he or she likes and clicks to go read the rest. At that point they have demonstrated their willingness to *consume* your content. Great!
Now give them more.
This video will show you two additional techniques to keep their interest, deliver exactly what they want, and get a little search engine love in the process.
It’s a win-win.

SenSEO: A Checklist For SEO

As anyone who knows me can attest, I am a rabid Firefox fan.
I found one more reason to crow about the virtues of Firefox. It’s an addon for Firefox that allows you to check your site and give you a grade based on selected criteria.
It shows you what your competition is doing right, and what they are doing wrong. You can use Sen SEO as a checklist on your own blog. Go through this process after each new post, and you can stay in Google’s good SEO graces.
This video will discuss what Sen SEO shows you
Tracking Traffic: Where Do They Come From, Where Do They Go?
about 6 months ago - 6 comments
Today, I wanted to address a little bit about tracking traffic, a necessary component to improving your online marketing and branding efforts. That’s tracking where your visitor comes from (how they found you) and where they go within your site. Their navigation path is a wealth of information if you will take the time to follow along.
What page are they on when they lose interest and move on? That one website tracking metric alone could be worth a sack of gold coins to you if you know what to do with it.
There are quite a few different types of website tracking scripts and plugins you can use for your blog, but for today, let’s not get fancy… let’s get detailed.

The fierce battle between Microsoft’s Bing & Google is getting fiercer. Ever since the launch of Bing in June 2009, Microsoft has been trying to capture the online search engine market share. Though Bing has come out as the fastest growing search engine in recent months, it still falls way behind Google. From online advertisements to cash back rewards campaigns, Microsoft has spent millions already to attract online surfers to use Bing. But now they have come up with a new strategy to garner more search volume.

Knowing what your target audience is reading is another of the steps in the journey to web success with your online small business blog.
There are a lot of tracking tools and plugins out there, but I wanted to introduce you to one I found which really provides some amazing insights into your traffic. You can drill into a month, week or day. You can review everything that’s happened on a single URL.
Your referring websites are listed and the search terms used to find you are displayed. I think you will be impressed with the detail this small footprint *script* yields.

Hi Cenay. I certainly didn’t realize that INTERNAL links helped with search-engine rankings (well, Google that is). It makes a LOT of sense to have links within your own blog so that people can be ‘navigated’ around your site automatically.
Leaving this sort of thing up to chance would make no sense at all.
Why leave it to chance when you CAN have control over where your visitors go once they’ve read the content that they came to your blog for.

Providing engaging content can really bring in a stable surge of readers to a site. But that is not enough since good SEO really counts too.
