Another good link is when someone bookmarks your site on their device
So don't neglect this list

1. meta tags
2. favicon
3. page speed
4. regular updates
5. url redirection
6. smart phone friendly
7. good pictures
8. clear page title
9. call to action top and bottom

In Google Analytics this traffic is label 'direct'

If your customer likes your content it ranks
Content that ranks gets natural links
Personal opinion I only care about links that people will click and get sales
Other links are like Ferrari on your drive that doesn't have engine

Thanks, that's a good take! So you don't focus on building any backlinks you only focus on creating the content that your readers will like?

Best content always ranks
Links are natural gained over time
The most no1 thing when user lands on your page
Does your content solve their problem?

My niche is clothing/fashion because I worked in industry
What industry you worked in do that niche

That's probably the fastest start --if you already know an industry you have an inside edge.
I can learn about any market but it takes time and you have to leverage other acquired skills and stumble a bit usually.

Google SEO at best is a craps shoot these days --either you are hot or you are not.

Best way to guarantee daily traffic is avoid Google 100%

• Online business registration complete (v.imp)

Example formula

• Product A (blue sunglasses) cost $100
• You make $8 earnings per sale (8% commission)
• If you sell 10 sunglasses a day it's $80 (x 7 = $560/week)

Go to Wordtracker and search blue sunglasses
Keyword volume is 1,433 visits/month (US)
Further down list is blue mirror sunglasses 678 visits/month (US)
Now you decided to promote blue mirror sunglasses

• Register the domain name bluemirrorsunglasses.com for $1
• Register hosting for $10/year
• Register SSL for $5/year
• Set up CMS
• Install e-commerce platform
• Add products (ONLY blue mirror sunglasses)
• Start to rank on Google after 3-4 weeks

That's what I did now I'm earning $50/day ($1500/month)

To do this successfully I cannot stress enough how important it is to read and apply the Google Webmaster Guidelines

Trust me this made my day! I am finding this community very much informative.

Looking forward to learn more from you @EuronGreyjoy

Someone said this
'If you are not willing to learn then no one can help you &
if you are determined to learn then no one can stop you'

Yesterday earned $90
Total 1.5 hrs adding products pop. on

haha but we were just talking about all the necessary steps to rank on G! What happaned? I'm starting a website with Google SEO in mind in order to rank...are you saying to avoid doing that now?

 

[AmNovice]

Google SEO at best is a craps shoot these days --either you are hot or you are not.

I thought that if you follow their webmaster guidelines and are ranking for keywords that don't have very high competition, you provide great content, that you should be OK to rank, no?

What do you mean by "get linked". How do you do it if you dont mind me asking? Thanks again!

 

[Honeybadger]

Because of O.C.D.
I try to have one of each
Test what works and not
Best way to learn is while you earn
Fun, not boring & make cash

Focus on this above everything SEO

1. Customer arrives at your site
2. Customer find perfect answer
3. Customer leaves happy

Do that 1st then worry about SEO

 

[Honeybadger]

I never said start anything with SEO in mind
Focus on helping people solve problems
What problem are you solving?

SEO is very very very very very easy
Solving problems is the hard one

 

[Graybeard]

give your staff a raise
if you are only fluctuating about 10% that's better than normal ...

 

[Honeybadger]

If you launch your site with ads
Don't expect to rank fast with SEO

1. Launch site WITHOUT ads
2. Help customer 1st - Google likes help websites
   
3. Then rank for natural keywords
   
4. Then put ads, slowly (when everything running tickittyboo)

 

[Honeybadger]

If you get hit 1x - hit back 2x (minimum)
I get 50% earning on one product
Yesterday Google ranking disappeared
Like dust in wind
I hit back with new content
Result = 2nd best earning day
It's your response matters not what caused it

Yup! I'll stick to the goal of solving the problem and ranking that way! Then I'll probably formulate a PPC strategy once revenue rolls in. Thanks. Will update!

It's only logic
Find a problem many people have
Solve the problem & help SAVE TIME
When you help me solve problem & save my time
Many ppl will use your content

Google ranking for what??
Plus if this site is only 8 weeks old your ranking will naturally move around anyway.

You don't need this, why pay for visitors when the whole point of SEO is to get organic.

I have a blog, 90% of my articles are content marketing, 10% are buyer intent.
I outsource keyword research and target high traffic, low competition keywords for my articles.
My aim is to publish 12 articles a week, although even with outsourcing I manage about half that on a good week. Every article I publish I have a guy (with much more knowledge than me in SEO) check them for keyword density, formating, linking and a few other things.
It's all good writting articles that help the reader ect but, your main focus above everything else has to be getting traffic.
