Driving Traffic To New Blog Day Nine
May 9, 2008
May 9 (Day9)
Hey everyone, hope all is well.
oh man, thank god for firefox’s built in spell checker…lol my spelling is bad..
Ok, Alexa Rank jumped another 75,860 more positions to 444,877 an increase of over 150,000 positions in two days.
Yesterday we hit the 125 visitor a day mark.
Gonna aim for 200 by end of next week, let’s see how we get on.

Ok, want to hear the good news? All of the posts now have been indexed and the new posts are being indexed now in less than 1 hour, that’s without ANY BACKLINKS to that article!
The Keywords that I’m aiming for are highly competitive, two worded and three worded phrases (sure, for beginners it’s suggested to go for long tailed keyword phrases, ie, 3-5 worded phrases until they get the hang of things). Now on that basis that I do this every day just for a couple of hours within say 2-4 months getting top page ranking for these phrases should by all rights be attainable. Consistency is the key. Well, so is determination, bucket loads. Sure it’s tiring and very monotonous but once you start seeing the results it’s quite rewarding and motivation enough to keep on trucking. So don’t give up yet ok, there’s still more to come. LOT MORE!
As I say next week we’re going to concentrate on Offpage SEO to help these newly made pages rank to the top of Google, MSN, and Yahoo. What we’re going to do is referred to by many; Link-Funneling, or creating a Link Matrix of sorts. Both fancy words, but I still prefer to call it: “Semantically Related Themed Linking”, sounds posher.
And in all reality, it’s what we are actually doing.
Link Funneling, or Matrix Linking can be loosely described as just getting links in any old fashion not taking into account the onpage factors that reside on these 3rd party sites that help the ranking process for our inner pages on our Blogs or Normal websites, some use the term a as method to pass on page rank to your sites by pointing other links from 3rd party sites to other 3rd party sites that link to yours. Hence why I refer to the Phrase “Semantically Related Themed Linking” because it’s more apt to what we are trying to accomplish here, we’re doing both at the same time. Creating a never ending stream of links pointing to other pages that are also related to enhance that user experience.
Any hows, MSN & Yahoo will take a little longer in my experience, but as soon as the links pointing back to each page start to build up, i.e 100-500 one-way back links these rankings in MSN and Yahoo will start to show up. I could speed things up by going to Live spaces (MSN’s blogs), or My Yahoo (Yahoo’s custom page where you can add your own rss feeds on, in fact I recommend that people took a look at how to do that as it also helps speed up things).
Today I started to run these keywords through SEO Elite on a project that allows you to see where you are ranking for a particular phrase. Yesterday there were two keywords almost located in No-man’s land. And today another keyword shows up as being found.
I’ll probably run these every 2nd day and see how we get on and if any new pages show up.
Keyword 1 ranked 630 in google.
(article 1)
Keyword 2 Ranked 216 in google.
(article 2)
Keyword 2 Ranked 213 in google.
(article 1)
Keyword 3 Ranked 536 in google
Not bad considering this is only day 9 and these phrases are very competitive.
Ok,
* Started at 2:42pm
* Submitted pages to OnlyWire, I would use SocialMarker, but it just takes too long but instead I submitted to a couple high PR sites
* Created more articles to prepare to post to article directories AND BLOGS
* Submitted to more forums
* Submitted to more link directories
* Finished for the day - Time spent on project - 4 hours 48 minutes
Pretty boring stuff so far innit. No one said SEO and getting traffic was glamorous
Well, I suppose it is as the money starts to roll in.
I ran into a problem today, Jon Leger’s server was down, so that put a dampen on things to create the articles, but not to worry I got most what I wanted to get done any way.
Ok now below shows the process, a flow chart if you will of what we have done so far in the terms of linking.
This is Step one. I could create a HUGE flow chart but it would be difficult to see what is what, so over the coming days a new one will be made adding another process to the flow chart which should make it easier to follow.
I apologise for the way the images have come out, for some reason this blog template wont display them properly with the text underneath, I’ve tried every aligning property there is and doesn’t do anything other than display it as it looks below with all the text pushed to the left.
So I hope you can understand / follow the paragraphs beside each image.

As you can see, the one in the middle is our Website showing its home page and pages already published. I’m just going to list a few here to give you the general idea of what’s going on, duplicate this process for each and every single page.
Here’s step two. Step two below refers to the related forums that I was talking about in the other posts here. All these links are pointing not only just to the home page, but all the posts that have been made so far. This process alone I clocked up over 100 links from .com’s, .edu’s, and even some .gov’s

How long you spend on each page is totally up to you. But I would suggest at least 2-3 weeks. Not just one page, but a few of them at the same time.
Remember in the previous posts of this case study, including today, I’ve been preparing articles for article directories, and just today Blogs?
Step 3 shows the same process as step two but this time for Blogs. Pretty simple stuff so far right? Cool.

And lastly, step 4 shows the same thing really but for Social Bookmarking sites.

Now I could of shown the image that looks like the last image “Final So far”, but man, talk about hard to work out…lol And I just realised that I just missed out another process. D’oh, for link directories. My Bad. any ways, just think there is one here for the moment…lol

The preparation of these articles are revolving around the topic at hand that each page is about. I’ve now got 5 different versions of the same topic for 12 Keywords (published article pages), yup, 60 articles. These are going to be used to allow us to control the keyword prominence and relevancy factor.
The things you need to concentrate on now is ensuring that the title, the first 20 or so words contain your main keyword that MATCHES the published article on your site or Blog and it also has these words towards the end of each article, while saving the article as the keyword phrase, generally most article directories save the article as the title any way, however some don’t.
The reason for doing this is search engines mainly focus on the first paragraph and last paragraph when retrieving text to display in it’s description area, the reason for this I can only guess to save the processing time as it would take on extra strain of these search engines to scan every piece of text. I’m not saying that it doesn’t scan the middle part of your document, I’m pretty sure that it does, but it’s not it’s main priority, and retrieving text from the first and last paragraph is a lot faster.
In the image above we also have Link Directories (well, sorry, I forgot to add that part, will do tomorrow), Social Bookmarking Websites, Forums and Blogs.
One way linking takes place from Link directories to our Home page of the Blog or website we’re working on. However, don’t just stop there, think outside the box… When you get an email back from the Link Directory Owner showing you where your link is… COPY IT, save it to a file “link-directory-approved-submission.txt”. We’re going to use these later.
Do the same for Social Bookmarking sites…. “socialbookmarking-submission-links.txt”. These links will be the actual story link of the submission you made for your Home Page or your Inner pages.
ie digg.com/Educational/Your_Keyword_Phrase_Story, and we’re going to point links to it.
However, BEFORE doing this, if you are using Firefox, which from my stats over 70% of the readers here are, download the Firefox plugin called “search Status” at: http://www.quirk.biz/searchstatus/
Once you install it, right click the @ symbol in your task bar near your PC clock and turn on “Highlight Nofollow Links”, and turn it off once you know which site has the nofollow, and turn it back on again when you’re on another site.
We want to ensure that we can get the page rank to pass down on to our pages. Doing this for sites that have the nofollow is just pointless and a waste of our time. The site in question is the only one that is going to benefit from here.
Site’s that have the nofollow attribute on them, still count as a link, but the weight applied to it is VERY SMALL. But it’s still a link.
Question, how many here do this? I bet if we were all honest with ourselves a lot of us don’t, we just submit a link to these places and leave it as that right? You betcha! Listen, Link Directories and some social bookmarking sites don’t hold that much power, so what we need to do is give them an extra push. Make that story linked submission to these social bookmarking sites more important in the eyes of the Search Engines. Remember, Votes (a link pointing to your page) are what make you climb higher in the search engines. If you can help your submitted pages climb higher, the more weight of importance is applied to it which in turn funnels down on to the page on your blog or website. With me so far? Great!
The forums and blogs can left just be as is, we’re not going to worry about those since blogs and forums get lots of posts on them any way that have other people’s links on there, so I don’t want to help any of those if I can avoid it. Rotten sod aren’t I?
And below shows Article Directory Step One - just want to show you what’s up and coming for next week so you can get your head around it now rather than later.

Ok, the new sections are highlighted in Blue. You can see these are article directories.
Now here’s the thing that most people are doing wrong when they post articles. Put your hand up if you post articles and leave it as that; post and leave? I reckons over 99% of those in the industry, even some so called acclaimed SEO Experts don’t bother either. Well, here’s something they can learn.
See those article directories, labeled Ad Post 1, Ad Post 2, Ad Post 3, Ad Post 4, Ad Post 5?
K, each of these articles are like Keyword 1, Keyword 2, etc that point to our Blogs / Websites pages that are about Keyword 1, Keyword 2, etc. Some article directories will allow you to have 3 links pointing to your pages, so that’s why I have added 3 lines pointing to our pages.
That’s from article directory 1. Step 3 will show you article directory 2 in the up and coming posts. No.. We’re FAR FAR from being finished yet, we’ve only just started creating our Offpage Semantically Themed Linking Structures.
Now how you go about this is up to you. We could go to GoArticles.com FIRST which get approved immediately. And Post 5 articles there. Copy those links and save them to text pad.
When Ezine articles and other article directory articles get approved, ie, like Ezinearticles can take up to about 7 days to approve an article. But lets assume our articles have been approved, we get a link to notify us of where it is. Or we can check back 7 days later and find them via our profile area, right? K, now create a text file called “article-directory-link-posts.txt”
Then jot them down in this kind of fashion…
Ezine Articles (source 1)
==============
Article-Post-1.htm (links pointing to it = 2, via source 2, & 3)
Atticle-Post-2.htm (links pointing to it = 2, via source 2, & 3)
and so on.
GoArticles (source 2)
==========
Article-Post-1.htm (links pointing to it = 2, via source 1 & 3)
Article-Post-2.htm (links pointing to it = 2, via source 1 & 3,)
and so on.
Another Article Directory (source 3)
====================================
Article-Post-1.htm (links pointing to it = 2, via source 1 & 2)
Article-Post-2.htm (links pointing to it = 2, via source 1 & 2)
and so on.
Keep updating this file so you can keep track.
Now the purpose of doing this is not only to build up the importance factor of each of these articles and build up it’s PR which is soon to be applied to your article on your website (we’ll, it’s more or less immediate as that article is indexed and as other pages link to it but just doesn’t show up on your toolbar until the next PR update), but to give you an idea of what is needed to rank for particular phrases on first page.
If you’re not on the first page or ranking first place, you need to do some more work.
You might find that some keyword phrases will only take a few, some up to as many as 50 or so article back links in this fashion. BUT don’t neglect your own pages as well, try and get in a momentum where you point links to your pages as well, via the same methods as previously explained; forums, blogs, and link directories. Really mix it up, if you can get loads of Domain’s IP addresses linking to you, the better. Remember, it’s not just links from the same places that count as a vote, but how many different IP addresses you can get pointing to your site’s inner pages and home page. Okey doke?
Cool.
That’s it for today Ladies & Gents,
Catch you all tomorrow.
All the best

Driving Traffic To New Blog Day Six
May 6, 2008
Hey everyone,
May 6 (Day 6)
* Started at 1.38pm
* Prepared More Articles for Article Directories
* Found more blog ping urls that work! (see below)
* Submitted blog and blog posts to forums
* Submitted blog to social bookmarking sites
* Submitted Feedburner RSS Feed URL out to RSS Feed sites.
* Visitors received before starting 12
* Added more meta tags to get more search engine bots over to the site.
* Finished for the Day - time on project 3 hours 29 minutes

Average Alexa Rank has gone from unranked to 610,150 in just a few days. So we’re half way there within a week of our main goal of 4 weeks.
No Adsense clicks yet, but I’m not really worried at this point, first goal is to get over 100 visitors a day, which wont belong at this rate.
Besides, not all of my blog posts have been indexed yet since this is a new blog. I’ve noticed that generally new blogs take about a week to be FULLY indexed.
Visitor count doubled yesterday, from 30 to 77 and we still haven’t even got half way through the list to drive even more traffic to our Blog. In the coming weeks it’s gonna start getting confusing and we’re gonna need to track EVERYTHING we do, where we posted, what the links were so we can use these to create a semantically related theme structure around our topic.
How many of us use blog ping urls? What are they?
Blog Ping urls is basically a process when you make a post on your blog, there’s a setting there that asks you if you want to ping out to services to let them know that you just made a post.
Places like Technorati, which you have to join first in order for it to take any effect. Your blog post url is appended to this url and adds your page to their website. Some sites keep your url in plain sight, others tapper off after 100 or so sites have been pinged and end up on page 2 - infinity. Other just truncation after 100 links have been pinged by other blogs. Nevertheless, it helps the process of search engine bots to crawl those pinged sites which then in turn crawls your blog. This is why blogs are so popular, it automates the process of getting links from other sites to start the search engine bot crawling process. Did you know, that you didn’t have to have a blog to ping to these services? Yup, this is what SEO Website Builder Pro does.
The more links you have out there, whether it be by the process of blog and ping urls, or manually submitting those blog pages to various places speeds up the indexing process.
However, this isn’t always the case on new blogs. It can take a little while and several passes of the search engine bot to come over and fully index your new pages. So don’t panic, you’re not doing anything wrong if you’re following these case study posts. It’s a natural thing to see. My new blog is only 10 or so days old and 3 of the 8 are indexed so far.
This SEO Revolution blog you’re reading from has its pages indexed in less than 10 minutes after it’s been posted, only because there are more links out there and bots are using up more bandwidth than visitors at the moment, even though this blog gets 150-220 visitors a day to it since March 20th, approx 7 weeks with just a few posts.
I submitted to feedburner the other day and I realized that I made a mistake in one of the settings, setting the feed to be used as Events, which I haven’t got a clue what it does, any way, my feed now shows up properly so hopefully this will help the indexing process speed up even more now it’s fully attached to feedburner, so what I may do is add this feedburner RSS feed url of the new blog and submit them out to rss feed directories and see if this helps speed up the process. I also haven’t submitted to any of the popular social bookmarking sites yet, but will today. The other social bookmarking sites were ones I were testing out to see if they had much power to index pages immediately like Digg and Netscape.
BTW, here’s the blog and Ping URLS… remove any dead ping urls you have and use these blog.
How can you tell if any of them are dead? Well, there’s a wordpress plugin called: MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer 1.5
Run a google search for it. You need it. It’s easy to install plus you need to join up to use the service which only takes a few moments. Once installed it will create a Ping Log, which takes about 1-10 minutes depending on the size of the ping list urls you are using, and will report back to you whether or not it was successful. Remove any of the unsuccessful ones immediately as you come across them. The ping list below submit out to approximately 40 ping services combined and they ALL work as they were tested last night.
Enjoy!
Remember though, join technorati and claim your blog first.

http://pinger.blogflux.com/rpc
http://blogupdate.org/ping/
The top one is the default you see in wordpress which submits to around 10-20 more services.
Important thing to note, you may remember in the other case study posts I mention that if you make more than one post via your blog or have it set to post more than one each day automatically, make sure that before publishing it to be scheduled to post out at a future date, ensure that your first post doesn’t ping any of the ping services, and your second post does!
Here’s the other links to the blog case studies if you missed it.

http://www.askloz.com/driving-traffic-to-new-blog-day-four
http://www.askloz.com/driving-traffic-to-new-blog-day-five
If you keep pinging these services for each post you make you could end up banning your blog from these places. So be careful. Another thing to note too is when you edit your posts, unselect the “allow pings” check box before saving the edited post. There is a plugin that automatically disables the ping feature on a post that has already been published should it need to be edited. If you go to wordpress plugin website you should find it without any problem since it’s a rather popular plugin. If you have problems finding it. type in: Smart Update Pinger
Meta tags, not really important and don’t really have much bearing on where you rank, keyword meta tags are pointless regardless what other people say to you. The ONLY thing that keyword meta tags help is better keyword targeting for your Adsense Ads, but here’s the thing. Google Adsense is getting better I have noticed showing the correct adverts. But one thing you need to be aware of, if your pages do not get enough traffic then different adverts will show up.
So to speed up the indexing process and crawl rate of search engine bots, use this code below. When I tested this out below about 18 months ago, man, you should see the amount of bots I get hitting to my sites on a daily basis, it’s crazy! Before I only used to have around 4 or so search engines hitting my sites, but now it’s way in the 15-20 area each month. You’ll even notice this code below on this blog as well and this is another trick to get pages indexed quickly!
<meta name=”robots” content=”index,follow” />
<meta name=”googlebot” content=”index,follow” />
<meta name=”msnbot” content=”index,follow” />
<meta name=”search engines” content=”Aeiwi, Alexa, AllTheWeb, AltaVista, AOL Netfind, Anzwers, Canada, DirectHit, EuroSeek, Excite, Overture, Go, Google, HotBot. InfoMak, Kanoodle, Lycos, MasterSite, National Directory, Northern Light, SearchIt, SimpleSearch, WebsMostLinked, WebTop, What-U-Seek, AOL, Yahoo, WebCrawler, Infoseek, Excite, Magellan, LookSmart, CNET, Googlebot” />
<meta name=”distribution” content=”global” />
<meta name=”rating” content=”general”>
<meta name=”language” content=”en, sv” />
K that’s about it for today… I’m beat.
If you’re enjoying the post so far, give us a digg please, only takes a few minutes compared to my 20 minutes to type up this post. Thanks. ![]()
I’m surprised by the total people reading these posts that over 98% of you don’t even use Digg.com Hmm… if you want to start ranking for sites and get free traffic, you’re gonna have to add it to your arsenal.
Above is the digg, click it to digg it.
thanks.
If you’re a reader of the blog if you want to get more notices via email as when these posts are made, the top right hand corner you will see eNews & updates, enter your email and click GO, then confirm the link within your email from Feedburner, it may also have SEO Revolution in the subject line.

Driving Traffic To New Blog Day Five
May 5, 2008
Hey everyone, hope you had a good weekend,
Ok, well, today really isn’t day 5, but let’s make it Day 5 any way.
I figure that the more realistic I can make this the better. Over the weekend other things came up, so this situation of mine is most probably no different to anyone else, we all have things to do, have a life and do things on the weekend. So I figure from now on what I will do is do Monday - Friday reports instead and rather than doing this for 28-30 days. I’ll do this project for 12 weeks. How’s that sound? Good?
Below you can see the traffic I received, take note of 3rd may (Saturday) and 4th May (Sunday), 31 & 30 visitors, respectively. Not bad for doing nothing eh? That’s residual traffic.

Now, the problem, well, not really a problem to be honest, at least not at this stage, I didn’t receive any adsense clicks. Oh hum.
So, a question would arise, why? It could be due to the placement of the ads, so what I will do later in the week is do some adsense placement testing to see if I can squeeze some more clicks out of the site. Not just the placements I might add, but which type of ad formats I should use. And it’s still early days yet any how. And having saying that, I tend to create normal websites which in my personal experience tends to convert a lot better than blogs…
So I think before worrying about where I should place these ads, I will concentrate on the ad format for now, then worry about the placement later.
This is split testing guys, it’s very important. It’s also important not to fill your pages up with ads as well, higher the impressions you receive, less you get and lower your CTR will be. If your CTR gets too low, then your account could be questioned and possibly closed. So take those thoughts into consideration when you create sites, not just for adsense, but proper informational websites.
Okey dokey then…
Our return visitor has increased from 1.61 to 2.56 Visitors per visitor.
5th May (Day 5)
* Started at 2:24pm
* Prepared Articles for Article Directories for next week.
* Submitted blog to 23 more link directories.
* Submitted blog to 10 more forums with article snippets and or genuine replies to a person asking a question.
* Paid $45.00 to have blog posted to 500 link directories over a course of 7-10 days.
* Traffic received before starting 27 visits.
* Finished for day, visits received while submitting 36
* Finished for the Day, time spent on project 2 hours 4 minutes.
I don’t normally like paying for services. I started online with no money at all and made a lot through Marketing and grew it from there.
But hey, this site looked good and if they turn out to be quite good, I’ll let you know of the url.
Now next week, I want you to pay real close attention. I’m going to reveal the one major mistake that people make when they submit to article directories and other places that people post full articles or article snippets on. Can you guess what it is? Make your comment below and let me know. You probably know it. I know you’re smart enough and read a lot of forums online, though you may not have heard it before other than what I have said in SEO Elite, or Keyword Elite forum, or my very own forum. Or maybe you missed it? Or perhaps you even read my SEO PDF when you joined my SEO Website Builder pro Pre-launch list that I give away for free? Haven’t joined? Crikey… you’re missing out if you haven’t.
In fact, I know that very few people do this. This type of strategy is no different to my Marketing Strategy when I was fully into it on a full time basis. It was also revealed on another site recently and I was like, hmm, is this guy taking credit for my ideas…lol nah, can’t be, he’s been doing it for years just as I have. Now this method is rock solid. It’s not just a free traffic generation tactic, but it also builds authority on your articles and increases your indexing rate AND keyword rankings. Which then in turn, should you create your articles in a fashion that’s not just talking about one keyword prhase, but other related words also, as this is very important when creating your articles, but the type of in-content linking.
Does anyone know what in-content linking is? And what it does in the eyes of the search engines? Let me know of your thoughts.
If you don’t know, don’t be shy, there really is no right or wrong answer here if you’re new to this stuff. And when there is enough comments I’ll reply with the logic why in-content linking is a vital tacttic of onpage seo.
Want a head start? Search for the term in the search engines.
Speak to you all soon.
by the way, up, give us a digg, or click the links in the email via feedburner for us if you like these posts.
Thanks.
All the best

Getting Traffic To A New Blog Day One And Day Two
April 30, 2008
Hi everyone,
Over the past few weeks I’ve been reading forums, blogs, and reviewing what people have asked me via my forum, or email. The basic question that was asked, was, how do I build traffic to my newly installed blog.
So, I figured for the next 28-30 days I’ll create a post of exactly what I have done, how many places I submitted my newly installed blog, what my goals are.
At the end of the case study, I’ll post a link to a file of all the places that I went to that gave me the traffic so you can use these too.
Below, is Day 1 of the case study that started yesterday and below that will be Day 2, tomorrow I will post Day 3’s Journal.
I hope this helps all of you and what exactly is involved as in time and effort that needs to be put in. Note: SEO Website Builder Pro will do most of this automatically for you when I finally launch in the coming weeks.
Day 1 - Blog Case Study, Driving Traffic To A Newly Installed Wordpress Blog.
Goal:
*To receive more than 100 visitors per day in 4 weeks or earlier.
