Tip # 1 – Creating Keyword Rich Content

Once you have a listing of the best matching keywords, all that remains is to insert them into your content creation. Now, be careful not to ‘stuff’ them in as much as possible. Google does penalize you for keyword stuffing. The visitors who see your site will be turned off and probably will not respond too well to illegible ‘stuffed’ keyword content.

Generally, a common 1% to 3% keyword density is the rule. For your blog/website copy, your targeted keyword should not be a more than between 1 to 3 appearances per 100 words. When it is a particularly ‘long’ keyword, then limiting it to a couple of is best; always in the first part of the sentence and in the last sentence in the paragraph.

Fairly effective as far is using 1 ‘short’ keyword and 2 ‘long’ keywords per paragraph. When the various search engines index your pages, you will start appearing in the right ‘target’ bracket. Next you’ll make more pages so that you can increase the quantity of content in your blog/website until you appear as close to the top of the search results as possible.

Tip # 2 – Article Marketing

Article marketing is simple, easy to do and you can outsource it for a couple dollars an article on elance.com or ifreelance.com unless you like writing. Article marketing is just writing an article, and submitting it to article directories. By including a link of your liking in the ‘resource box’, you will end up gaining back links and the possibility of a sale when the person reading the article clicks on your signature link and is directed to your blog/website.

However to really make the most of article marketing, the article must be keyword targeted, just like your content, in order to enable people to find it in an article search. The article must be a ‘presell’ of your blog/website and your product you are offering for sales.

You should be careful especially with the top article sites. If your article is too sales oriented it won’t be accepted for publication. Your article should be written in a non-promotional way and should just guide the reader to the resource box which would contain a link to your blog/website or “call to action.”

Tip # 3 – Forums

For almost every niche, there are forums around online where people would flock to discuss the issues that surround it. Naturally, this represents a base of potential traffic that you could tap into, but the question that should be asked is, “How?”

Obtaining traffic from a forum can sometimes be a long process. Most good forums generally been established, you may have to establish yourself within the forum so the others there view you as an important and trusted contributor.

If you can accomplish this, then your suggestions will likely be taken more seriously, as will your links. Before getting to this level though, you could start off by including a link in your signature, as is the generally accepted practice with most forums.

Make sure you read and abide by the forums rules though, the last thing you want to happen is that you end up getting banned for some offense that you did not realize was an offense.

Who knows, once you are very reputable, you could end up tapping into a huge stream of traffic from a forum. Becoming an expert on a forum does lead to a large number of followers be responsible for rapid mass traffic and sales to your blog/website.
