I underestimated Squidoo

For some time now I have only dabbled in Squidoo once in a while. Really nothing at all.
Then I went over and began doing some studying for myself and soon realized these people who are Squidoo'ing are getting on the top of the google search engine left and right.

I took them for the test and I right at this moment have a lens ranked at
Ranked #157 in business #3298 overall

take a look here
http://www.squidoo.com/forex--brotherhood

So guess what, I think it is time to start making some squidoo lenses.

On a sad note I was google slapped for too much bookmarking for the lens, I was on top till they slapped me... that hurt... It doesn't take long to get out of a slap just be consistent and keep adding to your lens, as well as keep bookmarking every day but only a couple bookmarks a day.

So in order to avoid the dreaded slap I would personally start my next squidoo out with a few major popular social bookmarking sites, and slowly as the month goes on add 2 a day and add some new information to your lens as well.

Come check out my lens and watch how I progress... also if you add me as a friend and star me, I come and do the same for you, hows that for some paying it forward :)

See you there.

I'm now a "dofollow" blog :)

Yesterday I made my blog a dofollow blog, I just wanted to share this with all of my comment posters.
I didn't even realize I was a no follow until I looked at my HTML. Well I fixed that right away I changed the "nofollow" to "follow on my blog.

So no spamming because it's a dofollow please. Leave posts that pertain to the subject at hand. Thank you and talk to you soon.

Why not make a podcast for your blog

Benefits of making a podcast for your blog:

1. You can have your daily listeners listen to you while they are surfing around the internet. Keeping your window open while they go about listening to you.

2. I just thought about this - If you have a secret password that pops up in the podcast telling the reader they have a day to email you to collect their prize. This can be used for your comment areas in your blog. Pick a random comment poster and announce them in your podcast, if they answer they win... YAY, okay that was just off the top of my head.

3. I personally will be doing a few here and there and while people are doing their "speedy drops" with Entrecard from my site they can listen to me... I love this idea.

4. Once people start to listen to you, they begin to form a relationship with you, they really have that feeling there is now a real person at the end of this blog.


This is the same type of idea as video blogging but, if your like me and camera shy then this will help you out greatly.

Now for the set-up
=============

Audacity is a free service so go on over and download it set it up and start recording your voice... very easy to edit as well.

TalkShoe This place you can host your podcasts and put them into a widget to add to your blog.
Odeo Same as above, right now they are upgrading their site so I don't know if everything id down right now, I only know my favorite widget from them is no longer around... I hope they get it back soon.

There are so many things you can do with podcasts I will touch more on this subject in the near future.

So get recording :)

Getting to the front page of Google using good keywords today

I am a happy camper today

It was the big launch for Forex Brotherhood today and I should have started earlier, but I only had 24 hours to get my site up and launched for the big show, I am their affiliate and dragged my feet to the last day before I started stirring up a website or should I say Squidoo lens.

So what am I to do? I have barely any time to get the lens up and right at that moment I typed in forex brotherhood and seen about 84k worth of results.... So I decided this is the first day I am going to use my husbands technique to get onto the front page within hours.... Did it work?

YES!

I did the work and woke up this morning to find

Forex Brotherhood
Forexbrotherhood
Forex brother hood

My site was on the front page of google for all of them, he's a genius!
I would like to tell you right now, he doesn't intent to let all of his information out right now, he will be creating his ranking ebook in a while, I'm not sure how much longer, when it comes time I will show you where it is.

But little ol' me getting on the front of google search engine for the first time in my life for 3 keyword. I am so excited right now I can't even tell you.

So the launch was today and I ended up on the front page today, can it get any better?

I now have a totally different way of being an affiliate marketer.

Bum Marketing

If your a bum marketer like me, I hope your taking advantage of Squidoo and Hub Pages. People don't take advantage of the power that is Squidoo. First of all they allow affiliate links and just imagine for a moment that a site actually allows this. You can't even put up affiliate links in Ezine, this is exciting stuff.

Putting up a Squidoo lens is so easy as well. You can literally put up about 10-20 lenses up in a weekend and do it all for free. Now Hub Pages are a little different but the same with each allowing affiliate links. On your hub pages you are only allowed about 3 links if you go over they will delete your hub so stick with about 2 links and you should be fine.

The best cool tip you need to know.
Always put your affiliate link on the very very top of your lens and hub. Remember you don't want people hanging around the pages and giving them an even greater amount of time to hit those awful google links thrown throughout these pages.
In and out, let them get to your link ASAP. Don't allow the google links on your pages to be their next hit or you lose a potential sale.

I hope this helps all you bums out there, most of you already know this, but it's always a good day for a refresher.

Big Blog Changes for me

I was looking at my blog and I didn't like the layout very much so I am changing it as of today when you come over and visit me I will have a different layout.

All posts and what I blog about will be the same, just a few differences in the look and feel, so here I go. I hope you like the new look I should be finished by about suppertime :)

Google Watch out!! Here comes Cuil

Cuil is an old Irish word for knowledge.

Here's what they have to say to the world

"Welcome to Cuil—the world’s biggest search engine. The Internet has grown. We think it’s time search did too.

The Internet has grown exponentially in the last fifteen years but search engines have not kept up—until now. Cuil searches more pages on the Web than anyone else—three times as many as Google and ten times as many as Microsoft.

Rather than rely on superficial popularity metrics, Cuil searches for and ranks pages based on their content and relevance. When we find a page with your keywords, we stay on that page and analyze the rest of its content, its concepts, their inter-relationships and the page’s coherency.

Then we offer you helpful choices and suggestions until you find the page you want and that you know is out there. We believe that analyzing the Web rather than our users is a more useful approach, so we don’t collect data about you and your habits, lest we are tempted to peek. With Cuil, your search history is always private.

Cuil is an old Irish word for knowledge. For knowledge, ask Cuil."

What I see here is a great way to surf the web, there is no competing with this search engine, right now I don't see any way of ranking higher in the search engine unless your content is using the search terms or keywords you search for. It looks clean and very user friendly, I don't think Google is going to like them very much, but you know Google they will probably buy them out.

A Facebook Challenge success!

Today I wanted to share the success with my Facebook challenge I started a while back.
I began this challenge really not knowing too much about Facebook and eventually I got involved with some groups. Once I was in groups I realized the power they had in Facebook as a whole. The two most powerful places in Facebook are applications and groups. Once you realize that, well your on your way to succeeding on whatever you feel like doing.

So I started out wanting to build a group that would build my Zenzuu downline. I didn't know where to start so I started adding friends like gangbusters. whoa...... Don't do it. STOP! If your inviting friends your going to get the big Facebook slap in the face. I did and I was booted out... Lesson learned. If your going to add people do a couple a day, if that.

Once back in I was trying to figure out what to do to make some friends who might be interested in the free make money online with Zenzuu. So I joined a few friend adding groups and a few applications that actually pay people money to play. Once I got there it was no problem adding friends to the group, they all wanted to make money and make it free. Little by little I made around 2000+ friends and invited them all to join my group. 600 of them did and out of the 600 I now have 145 downline with Zenzuu.

So if your wondering the power of Facebook you have seen it with your own eyes,

oh ya you need a snap shot in order to do that, give me a second I will run and get one.

OOps okay I lied I have 599 members when this snapshot was taken. I lost a comrade somewhere along the line.
Did I also mention it was the biggest Zenzuu group thus far in Facebook?

5 red hot tips to increase your traffic on your blog

I use these ways to increase traffic to all my sites but mainly to my blogs.

1. SEO (search engine optimization )

Get your favorite keywords and start getting your name higher and higher on the google search engine. There are so many ways to do this, we are not going to cover them all here but I am sure we will cover this soon enough in the future.

2. Entrecard

I have increased my traffic using Entrecard by leaps and bounds. Most full time entrecard users have found their traffic building go sky high.

I want you to look at my Alexa rating at the bottom of this page. I was at 3 million plus and now .... I think today around 155k so if you don't think Entrecard is working think again. My Alexa stats prove it.

3. Blog Commenting

Go to blogs related to your niche and post good comments. By good I mean ones that will stand out and get the blog owners attention as well as visitors.

I love to do this: Go to a blog that is giving some advise on something once you read all the advise or tips and trick add your own in the comment section. Make it a hot tip and leave your blog address. If someone likes your tip they will probably follow your address and see what else they are missing.

4. Content

Create quality content on your blogs, use keywords you want to be known on the search engines for and stick to them.

5. Consistency

If your posting once a week the Google spider will come once a week if you post every day they will come everyday. Think about this... Blogs that make 30k a month post around 5 blogs plus a day.

I have decided to give you all a taste of how I make money with video's.
Many of you have asked me "Mya how are you doing your video's to make so much money"? "please share".

So today I started making a video that will direct everyone reading this blog to a video on a tip on how I make money with video's.

It will be free and so valuable to everyone. See this is just something no one is teaching anyone and I wish someone had shown me, but I had to figure all this out myself. Now as you all know I am making money daily from my video's. I have shown proof as well. Some of you have asked if you could look at some of them.

At first I was worried that maybe some of you would take my ideas and flood the video sites with them. Then I realized this world is a huge world so I don't think we are going to hurt each others sales.
