			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Are you using a link wheel to raise your traffic and boost you seo efforts?</span></p>
<p>If you are not, you should be, the link wheel concept seems to be one of the most solid techniques out there to start getting some relevant and very targeted traffic to any website.  There are no expenses involved in building your own powerful link wheel, this is another reason seo experts love this method.  It seems that this is one of the most talked about techniques in the seo world recently.</p>
<p>Yes, link wheels are a great way to get some free traffic an they can be implemented in a few hours time.  You need to understand what a link wheel is first, then you can start using the power of a link wheel on your site or to drive traffic to an affiliate product.  The concept is simple but setting up an effective link wheel may take a little more effort.</p>
<h3>Are Link Wheels The Best Free Traffic and SEO Method?</h3>
<p>Here on Webmaster Business Plan we discuss many different methods to generate traffic to your website and most of the time we try to keep all the information on the free side.   The link wheel concept is no different, you can put together an seo friendly, traffic getting link wheel in no time at all and it will cost you nothing but a little effort.  We don&#8217;t like to use terms like &#8220;best&#8221; anything, but this sure is one powerful force to be reckoned with as far as search engine optimization and traffic generation.  So, for now this is at least our favorite methods to get some serious traffic, maybe not the best but damn close!</p>
<h3>So What Is The Basic Concept Of A Link Wheel?</h3>
<p>The basic concept of a link wheel is nothing more than creating multiple Web 2.0 properties on the Internet that inner link to each other and also link out to your main website or &#8220;money site&#8221; and in effect make a wheel of sites that link together.  There are complete products that are nothing more than explaining this process with a couple pictures.  We believe you can find better things to spend you money on, so we are going to explain it all here and give you a chance to compete with the big boys in any niche by grabbing some serious traffic with the power of your own link wheel.</p>
<p>If you can imaging you main site in the middle of a circle or wheel and sites like blogger, squidoo, hubpages and wetpaint surrounding your site this is how it starts.  Now each of the sites surrounding yours will link in to your site and then link to the next free blog or web 2.0 site.  So blogger would link to your main page and would also link out to your squidoo lens.  Squidoo would link to your site and then link out to your hub on hubpages and so on.</p>
<h3>Why Are Link Wheels Effective?</h3>
<p>Well, there are a couple reasons for this.  The main reason that these become very effective as far as google and other search engines are concerned is that the sites that you are going to setup for external linking are considered authority sites.  You know, sites with high page rank and ones that are used as part of the search engines &#8220;social indexing&#8221;.  Yes, these authority sites pack a real punch when it comes to search engine optimization and when you link multiple authority sites to each other and they are all linking out to your site, guess what, the search engines let little old you, share a little of that authority!</p>
<h3>Keywords And Link Wheels</h3>
<p>Understand that just because you have setup a few blogs really fast, you are not out of the woods yet.  The keywords you focus on are just as important here as they are anywhere else.  If you focus on some low competition keywords you will be sure to get ranked fast, but you can shoot a little higher on the competitive keyword target, because after all you do want some keyword phrases that will bring you some good traffic.</p>
<p>Once you have decided on your keyword phrase, you will wan to get your keywords in your blog addresses, lens urls and so on.  Also you will want to make sure that you are using variations of your keyword phrase in all of your link&#8217;s anchor text.  You may want to use a few long tail keyword phrases and then focus in on your main keyword set.  This is a good way to keep the links mixed up and still give the focus to the correct term as you are developing your link wheel.</p>
<h3>How Many Web 2.0 Sites Do I Need In My Link Wheel?</h3>
<p>Ultimately this really is up to you.  You can build a very small, simple link wheel with three to four external blogs, but you may want to continue to grow your link wheel through time.  The more external web 2.0 sites you include in your link wheel will help re-inforce the link strength to your main site, but also can drive some healthy direct traffic to your sites as well. The power of the link wheel is 2 fold, keeping people in a loop of your own information until they end up on your main site and hopefully buy.  Secondly, you are building an authority presence on the search engines, so you will benefit in raised google rankings for your keyword phrase.  So, there is no reason to limit yourself to four sites in your link wheel, when you could have as many as you like.</p>
<h3>A More Effective Link Wheel</h3>
<p>If you really want to get the most out of your link wheel, you may have to make some more mini link wheels on the outside.  This means nothing more that adding social bookmarking to each of your Web 2.0 sites or blogs you are using as your main feeder sites on the link wheel. Since you can only add one link to a social bookmarking post, you really cannot expand the theory of the link wheel using these sites.  However, you can reinforce the strength of each of your new inbound link properties by giving each of them some exposure on these hugely popular and high page ranked sites like digg, stumbleupon, mixx, reddit and others.</p>
<h3>So What Does A Link Wheel Look Like?</h3>
<p>Well everybody has a different take on what an effective link wheel should look like.  I have found many different ideas on the net, most of these are free on flicker, but I have saved these so long ago, I do not have the accurate credits to give here, so I do apologize for that.</p>
<p>Here are some of the best visual examples of link wheels out there.  You can take any of them and put them to use in your online business instantly or you can study them all and choose one you want to follow.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-495" title="paid-directory-listings" src="http://webmasterbusinessplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/paid-directory-listings.bmp" alt="paid-directory-listings" />Well everybody wants to get their web site or blog listed in as many free directories as possible.  This is great, but what most webmasters are not thinking about is quality.  The only value a web directory can offer is quality listings and some page rank on the directory that you are to be listed on.  If you use free directories you may be able to get your link on a page that has some PR, but this is not everything.  You need to be aware that free directories do not have the motivation to keep the structure of their site up to date and remove dead links from their listings.</p>
<p>If Google finds you link on a page that has good page rank, but your link is surrounded by dead links, this will not look very appetizing to Google.  You need to understand that the quality of the directory is &#8220;as&#8221; important if not more important than the PR of it&#8217;s pages.   This is why in many cases the most valuable directory listings to get involved with are not free.  The money spent is many times turned over to those who keep the directory up to date and continue site maintenance to assure that each and every link on the directory site is active and accurate.  Just like anything else, you really do get what you pay for when it comes to buying a spot on a top website directory.</p>
<p>If you are ready to get serious and take your website to the next level by spending some money to get a high quality back link to you, here is our own top 5 paid directory listing list.</p>
<h3>Top Ten Paid Directories (Domain &#8211; Page Rank &#8211; Price)</h3>
<ol>
<li><a target="_blank" title="Yahoo Directory" href="http://dir.yahoo.com/">Yahoo.com</a> PR 8 &#8211; $299</li>
<li><a target="_blank" title="Business.com Paid Website Directory" href="http://business.com" target="_blank">Business.com</a> PR 7 $199</li>
<li><a target="_blank" title="Best Of The Web Directory" href="http://botw.org/">Best of the Web</a> PR 7 $69-$300</li>
<li><a target="_blank" title="Joe Ant Web Directory" href="http://www.joeant.com/">JoeAnt.com</a> PR6 $39.99</li>
<li><a title="Massive Links Paid Web Directory" href="http://webmasterbusinessplan.com/massivelinks" target="_blank">MassiveLinks.com</a> PR4 $39.99 &#8211; $79.99</li>
</ol>
<p>There are other directories out there, but these are the ones that stick out and seem to have the cleanest and most up to date listings on the web.  We don&#8217;t think you will find better value anywhere else, but if you do run across a paid directory that you think deserves to be listed here, simply leave a comment or contact me and I will be sure to consider it as an addition to the list of the top 5 paid directories here on Webmaster Business Plan.</p>
<p>Good luck with your site listing and we hope the list of useful resources above can help bring your website traffic to the next level.  Even successful websites can use a boost and these site have proved to be among the top directories out there.</p>
<p>To Success,</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-489" title="effective-blog-commenting" src="http://webmasterbusinessplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/effective-blog-commenting.jpg" alt="effective-blog-commenting" />Generating traffic to your web site, blog or affiliate site can be done very  effectively, simply by commenting on other blogs.  The problem that many face  when it comes to blog commenting is that they do not understand how to find the  correct blogs to comment on and do not understand what a good blog comment is. I  am going to try to cover these 2 topics of common misconception and some other  tips on blog commenting that are sure to drive more traffic to your web site or  blog in the days and weeks to come.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t worry it is fairly simple to get a big result from blog commenting, you just have to know what you are doing and you can really get some traffic and results in the search engines in no time flat.  So let&#8217;s get to it&#8230;</p>
<h3>So What Is Blog Commenting?</h3>
<p>Well, simply put blog commenting is the process of joining the conversation  on blogs, instead of using email or popular social networks.  The main feature  that makes a web site become a blog, is the ability of visitors to add there own  comments, thoughts or questions to the site.  You may have seen a long string of  comments at the bottom of a post on a web site before and this is the comments  section. Anybody can submit comments on blog post, however in most cases only  the best will actually be published live on the site.  Depending on the blog  owner, your comments may be automatically posted or they may go to the admin for  review first.</p>
<h3>Why Do I Want To Comment On Blogs?</h3>
<p>Commenting on blogs is a great way to get known as an expert on any topic, to  get more exposure to your site and to build your brand.  You can comment on  specific blogs to grow you brand and also get free back links pointing to your  product site, affiliate program or personal web site.  You will see many  Internet marketers using this as a fast and free way to get more back links and  get more traffic to the sites of their choosing.  The reason you see so many  people suggesting this as a link building technique is simple, it works.  There  are very few ways to get so many links put on web sites that have a good PR  rating for free.  Most sites charge to have a link added to their blog roll.   However, having a good link in a comment section of a blog can drive some  quality direct traffic and also give you valid back link for Google to pick up  on as well.</p>
<h3>So How do I Find Good Blogs To Comment On?</h3>
<p>You can find blogs by using Google&#8217;s blog search.  This is probably the  simplest way to find blogs that you can comment on.  However, there are a couple  more factors that will prove to be important, besides the topic and content  theme of the blog you comment on.  One thing that will be very important if you  are wanting to get a high quality back link, is the Page Rank of the blog  you  will be commenting on.  You can install the Google toolbar on Fire Fox or on  Internet Explorer to see what the blogs PR is quickly and easily.  Now finally,  you want to check and see if the links in the blog comments are &#8220;do-follow&#8221; or  &#8220;no-follow&#8221; links.  You can find a few tools that will help you with this or in  Fire Fox you can simply right click on the link and choose properties to check  it.</p>
<p>There are also a couple of applications out there that seem to work well for this, if you want to know more about them, just contact me and I would be glad to share.</p>
<h3>What Do Do When Blog Commenting</h3>
<ol>
<li><strong>Post On Recent Posts</strong> &#8211; Being the first or one of the first  to comment on a new post can really get you more attention than being the one  who posted the 25th comment on a post.</li>
<li><strong>Write Something Useful</strong> &#8211; Nobody cares about the guy who say  &#8220;great post&#8221; or &#8220;thanks for sharing&#8221;  these are the comments you can buy for  penny from India and these are not what get attention in readers eyes or from  the site owners.</li>
<li><strong>Speak To The Blog Owners and Readers</strong> &#8211; These are your  target market, when it comes to commenting.  So don&#8217;t just speak out into thin  air, talk to the folks who will be reading your comment.</li>
<li><strong>Add Value</strong> &#8211; This should be the main concern when writing a  blog comment.  If you are not adding value to the conversation or giving  something of interest that is on topic, do not expect your blog comment to get  published by the blog owner.</li>
<li><strong>Get Attention!</strong> &#8211; Yes, just like any good writing, you need  to grab the readers attention and if you do this, you blog commenting campaign  will prove to be very successful!</li>
</ol>
<h3>What <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Not</span> To Do When Blog Commenting</h3>
<ol>
<li><strong>Drop links</strong> &#8211; Putting links in the comment itself is simply  not proper commenting etiquette, you link should be listed as your web site and  will link to the name you leave on the comment.</li>
<li><strong>Make Spelling Mistakes</strong> &#8211; Spelling errors may seem to be a  very minor issue to you, but to some people reading your comment this may be the  difference between a click through and scrolling on to the next comment.  Your  writing should represent you, so it should concise and spelled correctly.</li>
<li><strong>Talk Down About Post</strong> &#8211; If your not going to make a positive  comment, don&#8217;t waste your time. If you are talking down about the web site, web  site owner or the post itself, your post will never get published in the first  place, so move on.</li>
<li><strong>Spam A Blog</strong> &#8211; One comment at a time is plenty.  If you put  a comment on ten different posts, this not only looks suspicious but is!  So one  at a time, if you like the blog and want to put more than one comment, bookmark  it and come back later.</li>
<li><strong>Long Comments</strong> &#8211; You may need to write more than one  sentence to get your point across, but understand that usually only the first  few lines of a comment will show by default, so get the goods out first, if you  have to make it a long one.</li>
</ol>
<p>I hope you enjoyed this article and if you want to get a blog comment on a  <strong>PR2 webmaster site</strong>, comment below or you can go to the homepage  of the site and post a comment there. If you follow my rules above, I promise to  publish you!</p>
<p>To Success,</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a target="_blank" title="RSS 3.0 - Free RSS Tips and Tricks" href="http://rss30.com/" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-476" title="rss-blog-ping" src="http://webmasterbusinessplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/rss.jpg" alt="rss-blog-ping" width="217" height="199" />RSS 3.0</a> is a sister site to webmaster business plan and we have been sharing all sorts of useful information about rss (really simple syndication) over there for about a year now.  There are a lot of ways to boost your website traffic just by understanding how to use your RSS Feed correctly.  This is why I love RSS and I love to share about it with other webmasters.</p>
<p>About a week ago, we added a script which allows webmasters to perform a <a target="_blank" title="RSS Blog Ping Service" href="http://rss30.com/blog-ping/" target="_blank">blog ping</a> to many popular RSS aggregation services, including Google!</p>
<p>Well, just like any new web service there were a few bugs to work out and a few services were running so slow that it was slowing the blog ping script down.  We have since removed the rss services that were causing errors and timing out.  So the blog ping service from RSS 3.0 seems to be fully functional and now is ready to serve you!</p>
<p>If you are looking for a new way to boost the traffic coming to a blog or a website, get your rss feed ready and head on over to RSS 3.0 to ping all the top RSS sites for absolutely free!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-470" title="guaranteed-free-traffic-keyword-carpet-bombing" src="http://webmasterbusinessplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/guaranteed-free-traffic-keyword-carpet-bombing.gif" alt="guaranteed-free-traffic-keyword-carpet-bombing" /><em>Do you wish there was a way to get guaranteed traffic to your blog?  Are you picking out winning keywords and still not able to get traffic to your site?  Do you check all the right places to find competition on your keyword phrases, but still cannot get ranked for them?</em></p>
<p>Well trust me, you are not alone.  This is one of the most frustrating problems for webmasters and Internet marketers alike.  If you are putting in the work and simply not getting the results, trust me I know exactly how you feel and I have definitely been through this.  However, I do have some helpful hints to get your past this &#8220;bump in the road&#8221; and back on track with your internet marketing efforts.</p>
<blockquote><p>I was recently asked a question on a forum that I frequent &#8220;I have done my keyword research and have submitted my info to squidoo and ezinearticles, but I am not getting ranked, I feel like I am missing something?&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Well, the conversation on the forum was about different methods of keyword research that different people use.  There are many different methods that people use and some are obviously more effective than others. The problem it turned out was not finding the right keyword to use, but how to market the site and get link exposure with the keyword term that this member was trying to focus on.</p>
<p>If you do not understand what keyword research is, join our mailing list here and you will get a link to some videos that will help out with this.  For those of you who are already doing some keyword research and then trying to focus your link building efforts to get ranked for those keywords, I will give you the same reply I posted in the forum.  If you do not know what keyword research is and do not fully understand link building and anchor text yet, please do not proceed with the steps below!<br />
The methodology I will explain is very quick and dirty seo, but when it comes down to it I have used these exact steps to successfully launch many a profitable site and I know these will work for you too.  All you have to do is apply the steps and keep mixing up your keyword phrase in relevant long tail keyword phrases and <span style="text-decoration: underline;">You Will Get Results!</span></p>
<p><strong>Write one new article, get your keyword or a variation of it in the title, body, keyword tags and make a link with the same or variant of your keywords in the post, to the post. Do Not make the keyword spammed throughout, make it natural and make this one of the best posts you ever wrote, this is the gold nugget that you are going to trade for traffic!</strong></p>
<p><strong>Publish this, take your rss feed over to <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://feedburner.com/" target="_blank">http://feedburner.com</a>, burn it, then get over to <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://pingoat.com/" target="_blank">http://pingoat.com</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>Now that you are at <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://pingoat.com/" target="_blank">http://pingoat.com</a> submit both your website feed and the feedburner feed, with a slight variation in the title, but still Keep Your Keywords In There Too.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Next it is time to do some social bookmarking, get over to:</strong></p>
<p><strong><a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://digg.com/" target="_blank">http://digg.com</a><br />
<a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://stumbleupon.com/" target="_blank">http://stumbleupon.com</a><br />
<a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://reddit.com/" target="_blank">http://reddit.com</a><br />
<a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://mixx.com/" target="_blank">http://mixx.com</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>and bookmark you new post, do this at different times of the day, not all at once.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Now, write you up a small 300-500 word article and post it on all article directories( <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://ezinearticles.com/" target="_blank">http://ezinearticles.com</a> <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://goarticles.com/" target="_blank">http://goarticles.com</a> <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://articledashboard.com/" target="_blank">http://articledashboard.com</a> ), authority sites( <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://squidoo.com/" target="_blank">http://squidoo.com</a> <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://hubpages.com/" target="_blank">http://hubpages.com</a> <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://facebook.com/" target="_blank">http://facebook.com</a> <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://knol.google.com/" target="_blank">http://knol.google.com</a> )and as many blogs that you can(heres the <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="../free-back-link-building-system-automatically-build-backlinks/">blog submitter</a> I use, it&#8217;s free)then time to get your article on some authority blogs, say hello to <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://blogger.com/" target="_blank">http://blogger.com</a> <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://blog.com/" target="_blank">http://blog.com</a> <a target="_blank" title="Free Internet Marketing Blogs" href="http://fortuneboard.com" target="_blank">http://fortuneboard.com</a> and <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://posterous.com/" target="_blank">http://posterous.com</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>Everywhere you submit you article you need to make sure that you can get at least one link with a variation of your keyword in the article or do not waste your time there.</strong></p>
<p><strong>You may also want to spend some time on popular social sites telling people about the new post, Google loves to see some traffic to a page that it is going to rank. I suggest you use <a target="_blank" title="External link" rel="nofollow" href="http://ping.fm/" target="_blank">http://ping.fm</a> to multiply your efforts here.</strong></p>
<p><strong>I know this sounds like you are going to be carpet bombing the web with info and Yes that is the idea. If you want to be noticed by Google, give them something to look at!</strong></p>
<p><strong>This can be done all in one day, but I suggest you spread it out over a few days or even a weeks time, because after all you don&#8217;t want to scare Google with to many new links all at once.  Now once you have completed these simple steps, just wash, rinse and repeat; you will be guaranteed results. </strong></p>
<p><strong>That is if you have chosen a worthy keyword!</strong></p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-473" title="more-blog-traffic" src="http://webmasterbusinessplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/more-blog-traffic.jpg" alt="more-blog-traffic" />Well I can tell you if you do the things I spoke of above, you will get traffic! There is no question about it, you will be able to see some immediate traffic from direct click through visitors. However, more importantly, if you use good anchor text and keep mixing up the long tail terms, you will be able to sustain some rather healthy traffic from the search engines as well.</p>
<p>You can look at any of the big name products, video series or guru reports; they all will focus in on one of the sections of info above and build a whole product around it, but you know what, you don&#8217;t need to spend $300 dollars to take some logical steps toward your success online. When it comes down to it, there are only 2 things that online marketing comes down to, Distribution and Target Market. Everything else is simply smoke and mirrors.</p>
<p>Now, I will say that much like exercising, some people really do need to make a huge investment in a product to remind them that they need to exercise, however I hope you can find you motivation elsewhere <img src='http://webmasterbusinessplan.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I hope that this quick little synapses helps some internet marketer or webmaster take there website traffic and online business to the next level.  As always feel free to contact me if you have any questions about this or any article of mine and I would be glad to assist in any way that I can.</p>
<p>To Success,</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are many uses for banner ads.  Many times webmasters will use these as part of a Google Adwords campaign, banner rotation program or simply to advertise there site on any other site in the world.  Banners have been around for many years and have been a standard in online advertising since there inception.  I very rarely use banner ads myself, but there is always that rare occasion where I need one and I need it yesterday, if you know what I mean.</p>
<p>Some people may prefer to use MS Paint, Photo Shop or any other graphics application to create their own banner images, but if you are looking to create a quick banner and don&#8217;t want to have to learn how to use a graphics editor, there are some online services that will help you do just that.</p>
<p>Below, is  a list of a few of the most popular banner creation websites.  All in the list are free banner creators and can create you a banner with your choosing of text and background images in just a few clicks.  Some of these offer flash banners, some are simple jpeg images and a few offer animated gif images.  So take a look through and find one that will work for you and your website promotional needs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-439" title="social-bookmarking-made-easy" src="http://webmasterbusinessplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/social-bookmarking-made-easy.jpg" alt="social-bookmarking-made-easy" />If you are new to internet marketing and do not know what social bookmarking is no problem, we will cover that here to.  If you are already using social bookmarking sites to get more traffic and higher exposure to your websites, then you are going to love what we have to share with you here today.  I know that many people spend a lot of time doing the social bookmarking dance.  Going to digg, stumble, reddit and then mixx and so on.  Well, this can be effective as far as boosting a websites rankings in SERP and getting some much needed traffic, but is not so time effective.</p>
<p>Let us show you a better way to do this without chasing your tail all day long.  However first, we want to make sure we are all on the same page, so let&#8217;s get started.</p>
<h2>What Is Social Bookmarking?</h2>
<p>Social bookmarking is nothing more than putting a link to your favorite websites on a site that is built to share your favorites.  Much like you can add a bookmark or favorite to your web browser, you can add a similar listing on these &#8220;social bookmarking&#8221; sites. This is a great way to share your favorite websites and web destinations with your friends and family and is also a very &#8220;White Hat&#8221; way for webmasters and internet marketers to get a little google juice and some direct traffic to their websites.</p>
<h2>What Makes Social Bookmarking So Powerful?</h2>
<p>There are a couple reasons that using social bookmarking as an method of online marketing works.  The first is the fact that your link will be put in front of hundreds of thousands of people on each site you submit it to.  Just the other day I got 800 unique visits from a single submission to stumbleupon.com  I don&#8217;t claim to get these results every time I submit a link, but I can guarantee that you will never get free results like this without using them.</p>
<p>Another big reason that internet marketers and webmasters cannot live without using these services is that the top search engines look to these social bookmarking sites as Authority Sites and they check them for what&#8217;s new and what&#8217;s popular.  In most cases this translates into a boost in your web site&#8217;s ranking on the search engines.</p>
<p>So yes, you NEED to be using these sites if you are serious about online business, internet marketing and getting mad crazy traffic to your sites.</p>
<h2>How Do I Add My Site To Social Bookmarking Sites?</h2>
<p>This really varies from site to site.  Most all of the popular social bookmarking sites will require you to create an account to post your website bookmarks, but none of these sites charge for membership so don&#8217;t worry, this is free.  Once you have created an account and logged in, most sites have a similar setup to add a link, you choose a title, description and category for your web link.  In some cases you can also choose a set of keywords and an image to associate with your bookmark as well.</p>
<p>Most of the more popular social bookmarking sites will allow you to get a plugin for either Firefox for Internet Explorer to make it quicker and easier to add your bookmarks to their site.  These can be nice, but at the same time if you want to get your bookmark spread to many sites, it is not an effective way to do this by any means. If you add one or 2 of these bookmarking toolbars to your browser, that is more than most people want or would really use in the first place.  Don&#8217;t worry, there is a better way and we are getting ready to get to that.</p>
<h2>Effective Tools For Social Bookmarking</h2>
<p>There are a couple of tools out there that can make your social bookmarking efforts more effective and much easier to keep up with.  Some are free to use and some of the best ones are not, we will discuss both and let make an educated decision as to which one is right for you and your online business.  Most people can see the benefit right away from the free tools and personally I decided to start using the payed tools pretty quick because I saw so much value and control that was not offered by the free ones.</p>
<h3>Free Social Bookmarking Tools:</h3>
<ol>
<li><a target="_blank" title="Social Marker - Social Bookmarking Tool" href="http://socialmarker.com" target="_blank">Social Marker</a> &#8211; This website offers a cool and free tool to allow you to send your bookmarks out to many sites all at once.  This site can make a days worth of worth of work achievable in a few minutes!</li>
<li><a target="_blank" title="Easy Social Bookmarking Tool" href="http://onlywire.com/" target="_blank">OnlyWire</a> &#8211; This is another secret guru type tool most folks don&#8217;t tell you about until you have already bought a paid product from them.  Now this is by far the best free one, but it has a huge downfall.  The fact that they force you to put a link back to there site on the site you wan to bookmark really takes away from their appeal, to me at least.</li>
<li><a target="_blank" title="Free Social Bookmarking Service - But Not The Best" href="http://www.socialmarking.com" target="_blank">Social Marking</a> &#8211; another site that attempts to make social bookmarking easier, I am not convinced.  It has a very archaic setup and really does not seem to automate much, besides there sales funnel.  Maybe a good resource for some but after using there free system, I think there plan is to get you to buy there service, so probably not the best out there, but it is free?</li>
</ol>
<h3>Top Paid Social Bookmarking Tools</h3>
<ol>
<li><a title="Simple The Best Social Bookmarking Tool On The Net" href="http://webmasterbusinessplan.com/bookmarking-demon" target="_blank">Bookmarking Demon</a> &#8211; No, this is not a free tool, but it really is worth its weight in gold.  Am I an affiliate, Yes! And the only reason I am is because this tool is so powerful that I cannot stress how much value it brings to the plate of any internet marketer or webmaster.  If you are looking for a product that will automate, schedule and blast you social bookmarks to all the right places in just a few clicks you will blow you money on this one and come back and thank me for suggesting it. It Really Is This Good Folks!</li>
</ol>
<p>I hope the information I have shared with you today proves to be a driving force in your online marketing efforts and gives you results like you have never seen before.  I understand that there is a learning curve to everything and I will add some follow up posts to explain the ins and outs of social bookmarking to make sure you get the most out of  your efforts.  As always if you any questions about what I have outlined above feel free to contact me at any time and I would love to help answer any questions you may have.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, it seems to me that many people find it hard to dig past the hype of article marketing and get to the results part of the game.  I know that everybody has his or her own ideas and their own &#8220;system&#8221; that they try to stick with and make work. However, when it comes down to it, if you are not getting results from your article marketing efforts, you are doing something wrong.  It really is that simple, article marketing is a powerful source of income and free website traffic for everybody who understands and applies its methodology correctly.</p>
<p>So if you are not getting results, let’s see what you can change.  The one thing that gets me every time is people who say, well I have not got results yet, so I am just going to keep trying.  Not that having the perseverance to stick with something is bad, but if you are not getting results and you just do more of the same actions that are not getting you results, the odds are all you are going to get, is tired!</p>
<p><strong>Things To Change In Your Current Article Marketing Campaign To Get More Results:</strong></p>
<ol>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Quality Of Content </span>-      Article marketing is not all about how many junky articles you can crank      out in a day.  It is about how much high quality and grammatically      correct articles you can produce.  So don&#8217;t be confused the quality      of your articles is the single most important factor in being successful      with article marketing.  After all if you hope that your articles get      published on many other sites, which should be a goal of yours, you need      to give them the &#8220;meat&#8221; so they want to share your information      on their own web site.</li>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Keyword Research</span> &#8211;      Don&#8217;t just throw out articles and hope people find them, first check and      see what people are already looking for and then you will be able to write      to the people that are &#8220;looking&#8221; and this can be a very quick      way to get instant positive results in your campaign.  There is no      more powerful marketing concept than &#8220;preaching to the choir&#8221;      once you learn how to do this, you will not be able to be stopped!</li>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Focus</span> &#8211; Again, to some      this may sound very elementary, but really focus is one thing that many      people loose.  If you are trying to work with too many products or      services, it can be easy to loose focus and start writing on all sorts of      topics that have nothing to do with each other.  You need to keep      your writing and publishing focused on one or 2 related items or      topics.    You must become known as the authority on the topic      to get the results like an authority on the topic you are focusing on!</li>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Article Distribution</span> &#8211;      Obviously I highly suggest you start right here on ezinearticles.com this      is the biggest and best article directory on the web and anybody who does      article marketing will tell you the same.  However, you should also      understand that your success will be based on how many people you can get      to see the information you are sharing, so don&#8217;t be afraid to offer your      information on 3-5 or even more article directories.  This will help      you get more visitors, more eyes and more syndication out of your efforts.</li>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Hire A Writer</span> &#8211; If you      are working on an article marketing campaign that is on a subject matter      that you simply do not have the knowledge for or ability to write on,      don&#8217;t be afraid to get help.  <a target="_blank" href="http://writtenforseo.com/" target="_blank">Professional      writers</a> can help you create fresh content and may also be able to help      you with article distribution.  For many this can be a great way to      amplify their efforts and get more done quicker.  Article marketing      is very powerful, but if you are not a powerful writer on the topic you      are focusing on, seo writers may be able to help take your article      marketing campaign to the next level.</li>

<p>There are many more facets to a successful article marketing campaign, but if you are already working with a article marketing campaign that is not getting results, these are five ways you can change what you are already doing and see if you can get more results from your existing efforts.  Many times people spend too much time in areas that are simply not effective and this can lead to a lot of frustration and after all time is money, so you want to make sure you are spending your time effectively and where you are able to see a return on your efforts.</p>
<p>There is definitely an inertia that is created by being consistent with your article creation and submission, so don&#8217;t let a slow start scare you away from article marketing, it truly is one of the oldest and still one of the most relevant methods of online marketing.  Slow and steady really does win the race and if you can find ways to get more benefit along the way, you are sure to stick with it for the long haul and see how beneficial article marketing really can be for you and your online business.</p>
<p>If you try the suggestions above and are still not getting the results you are after, feel free to contact me and I would be glad to take a look at your article marketing campaign and personally see what I can do to make it profitable and successful for you.  I do not claim to be a guru on this topic.  However, I do know that many times somebody on the outside looking in is able to see things that those to close to a project simply miss.  So this in mind let me know if I can be of assistance.</p>
<p>To Success,</p>
