A lot of work... what I'd really like to be doing is SEO reports all day because that's the most stimulating to do and the best paid. Difficult to get that kind of work in in any quantity though. Still, recession looms and more and more companies will be looking for alternatives to PPC so organic can be very big this coming year... of which, the happiest to all, may I say :-) Yep, and with organic you need links.:-) Or you need sound on-page optimisation. Anyone want to see where I am for the phrase in their versions of Google? That's Lisa with an esss, not a zeee. I'm no. 2 here in the UK and the USA Googs. I don't have a lot of IBLs using the term. |
|
It is a lot of work especially when you have clients also. I have been turning people away, or giving a high price that they don't want to pay so it will be more worth it to me, so I can get more of my sites finished and the ones I have get them all updated. I have a lot of product that needs to be listed. I got someone giving me work now which is good. |
|
Clients can give you more money at a pop but for the long term I want something more stable. Orders with commissions from Affiliates, with Adsense seems to be more stable for me and I know that with it all including clients I can keep a good income going. I need it with the house we bought and paying for that plus this one we are living in we need the extra. Then of course with all the sites I have something to work with as far as links go I can see that helps. |
|
also with cleints and no that they are good quality links with no wait on them most of the time. You mean you get immediate link benefit, I assume? |

You don't need a lot of links to gain a SERP.:-) Just good related ones. I tried co.uk and the .com I don't see you. |
|
What is the website we are looking for? |
|
I see some .org and .gov sites |
|
Yes, on page is part of SEO. One of my newer sites just up this past March is #7 for home decor now on the .ca http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=home+decor&meta= it sometimes hits the top 5. I am gaining some good hits for all home decor SERPs on the .com also. It is hosted on a Canada IP. |
|
My top key phrase hits incoming: home decor home accessories home accents home decor catalog home decorating catalogs home decor catalogs decorating catalog home decorating affordable home accents This is all for the optimized index page. I gained most of these SERPs within the first 3 months. The catalog ones I gained after I researched and found out that "catalog" needed to be added in the optimization as it with home decor etc was one of the most searched terms. I optimized it with catalog sometime is August. It picked up at least 30 to 50 visits a day with just that word. It is a lot of work especially when you have clients also. I have been turning people away, or giving a high price that they don't want to pay so it will be more worth it to me, so I can get more of my sites finished and the ones I have get them all updated. I have a lot of product that needs to be listed. I got someone giving me work now which is good. Well work is always good if you need it. A person has to make a living. |

|
snip Well work is always good if you need it. A person has to make a living. Point is you spend more time working and less time looking. Well yeah I suppose. I don't look they come to me.:-) |
|
My work though just keeps me constantly busy, I have a laptop now of my own, it was hard to share hubby's so I can take my work with me somewhat. So if I am not on my main computer I am on my laptop while I watch TV. |

snip Yep, I can get sites to rank immediate sometimes. Do they hold that rank or sandbox? They hold it and gain.:-) http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&r...easter+dec or was always top 10 since about a month online. Now #1. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&r...+dec orations Always been top 10 now stable in top 5. There are more with this site. The Valentine site has some good SERPs also I am starting to get some good traffic with it since it is coming up. I have some good SERPs with my Christmas, Irish, and Halloween site but not as good. I need to work on them some more. The home decor site previously mentioned has been at a good pace wit the SERPs since creation. My holiday sites of course are seasonal so they only bring in major traffic during those seasons, although there are some that trickle through the year. I knew from the start that they are made just for the holiday on mind and not getting a lot of traffic throughout the year. That is where my other sites come in. It helps to break it up some.:-) |
|
If your links are good you place in the SERPs and stay there. You can't link with loads of links. You have to do it nice and slow over a couple of months, then do it again a few months later to optimize better. One may say because of those niches that is why they rank, but my homedecorcenter site is really not a niche. It is a larger market compared to my other ones and it competes with larger corporation sites. So does my simplestuff site compete with the larger home decor businesses, but it has been around for a while. Sometimes I am ranking the 2 sites back to back.:-) Each one though is different in what is offered and catering to a whole different type of consumers. The only site that I am having problems with is the computer games and electronic site that I haven't had a chance to really optimize good enough. Plus computer and electronics is a pretty hard SERP. But I feel my next year it should be doing fairly better than what it is now. |

Yes you are #2 for that phrase but that is a phrase that doesn't need links really, but you have related links to it. http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com...r2= seo-rd-se Internal links count also.

Plus the name is in the titla of the URI which I have noticed that will count as a link. |

Which is the other obvious. Yes, there are several options and I have sites for these other type decors. Each in their own niche. There are always people looking to purchase items for the home through out the year. This is what I focus on for that. The items in my own inventory are items that cater to my liking and know that these themes are good sellers country primitive items, wrought iron, chili pepper, apple, sunflower, Americana, lodge rustic, and rugs. I already pull money with this and my internet marketing. Of course the drop shipping and affiliate sites fill in when I take a break and have to slow down on doing my own inventory. Like I said I want the income to flow whether or not I am working or on vacation, or sick. This way will work for providing income all the time. I might move on to the more elegant nature but that would have to be in the future if I get the money and care to do so. |
|
My next bigger venture in purchasing will be exporting Polish Pottery. There are already a few who do this, but I didn't see any where I am at. I am looking into also going brick and mortar. |
|
I see a few online but they do not have enough of it not enough patterns. We will have to see once I get settled in to my final home and move all my inventory from MO to KY. I have my sites set high, hopefully not to high, but that is me trying to be well set money wise in my older days. Trying to get into larger ventures as it can help the family also and I got some friends that would like to move and start a brick and mortar business together with me. |

Shoot one I finally gave the money back cause he couldn't make up his mind with a site design. I also did some graphic design for a company's soap label a few months ago. Got paid pretty good for that job. The company was please and asked if they could use me again and to let them know once I got back for a bigger job. Well I haven't told them yet as I just don't have the time. To get with the mix of things my daughter is getting married again in May and I have to help withy that. |

Her invitations, flowers, etc., plus moving, and my sites. I will just keep doing what I can. snip I might move on to the more elegant nature but that would have to be in the future if I get the money and care to do so. Elegant nature? Yeah, brass, crystal, fancy, Victorian home decor and stuff. |

My next bigger venture in purchasing will be exporting Polish Pottery. There are already a few who do this, but I didn't see any where I am at. I am looking into also going brick and mortar. Now that is a departure. Yep, I figure why not do both. If you have the stock in inventory why not do both internet marketing and brick and mortar.
