Twitter, the best online marketing tool?, The best traffic and leads generator?... hehe, probably yes, if you know how to use it, I mean, if you use is right, your twitter account can be a really good traffic and leads generator, you can start worry about your main site instead!, I mean you have to have your main site (where you send people from twitter) ready to receive those quality leads, you must pay attention on this one, because you can be loosing your time somewhere, imagine sending people ready to buy a product similar of what you offer, but your site is not ready to convert them, then you are loosing your time for sure. Ok guys before getting more advanced, I would like to list some very basics about using Twitter (those basics are important though): The Twitter Basics Tips (be sure to read the advanced tips at the bottom)
10 Easy steps to get traffic from Twitter
Twitter is very simple to use, it’s so popular and can get you tons of traffic if you know how to do it. This web 2.0 is fashionable, so enjoy the moment! and get some traffic for free. Follow these tips.
1- Make you profile look interesting,
The first two things your visitors will see when they go to your Twitter page are your profile and your user name. So you should get sure that your profile looks interesting because, if it doesn’t, visitors won’t bother to read your tweets or visit the links you post on them.
2- Pick a convenient user name,
As I have just mentioned, your user name is important too. You’d better pick a user name related to your niche. You must pay attention to your choice because it will show in searches other users make.
Google will also index your twitter account, so if you have a relevant user name, you will have the chances to get extra traffic from google because of your user name.

First I want to thank Mr. Rob Bibb for taking the time to comment in one of my articles here, which is the origin of this update about Rob Bibb and Blackwood Productions, (you can learn more about his services and products here). Straight to the point, as the title of this article say, I am still not 100% sure about my suspicions on the Blackwood Productions system harming my site, this site, in the SERP's and in my Page Rank. Yes I am not 100% sure even though, my suspicions started year ago (more less)
So the questions remain: - Why I am not 100% sure about those suspicions and its responsibility? - Are we mistakenly judging BP about it? - Do we have a real proof that BP wont hurt your site's PR and SERP's because of google penalization? - Why could Google penalize sites that are using the BP system or the like? Answers to those in my next update...

First I would like you to remember the case of this website, which was the penalization done by google. As far as I know, this website was penalized because of the selling of ads and links with a network I can't mention, or better say, I don't want to mention... for now.
I am far of recovering all of my page rank for this site; this site had, year ago, a nice 6PR, so I am still need to work, but fortunately this time, my efforts are now in a better direction, I mean my efforts until now were to get out of the google penalization and now they are only to make my PR grow.
Thank you Google for re-inclusion!
What you need to do to have your site back to life after a google penalization?
Just a little note to understand what means “to be penalized by google”, my experience tells me that there are three kinds of penalizations,
Penalization 1: Google can penalize your site by manipulating your position in the SERP (Search Engine Result Page), that means that your site will show not before a certain number of pages (In some cases your site can show starting at page 10, 20 or 30 which are very poor). Remember, page 10 means that your site is after the position #100 in the SERP. And is obvious to say that whatever you do, your site will not show in better positions, as long as this penalty is current.

The site is selling custom mats made with coco (the skin, if we can say that) and at my first quick view, there are many competitors using the same keywords as this reviewed site is using, so a necessary fight in here is a must.
Template? - The site is using a version of Cre loaded Shopping Cart Sofware which is a flavor of the well known OSCommerce Opensource Store software. The template system of these shopping carts have been always poorly built, since they are still using tables even if they already use CSS files. The current design of the site is nice (look and feel talking) but poor if we talk SEO. Canonical urls? - The site needs a fix on this, google can sometimes, or many times, penalize a site and put them back to very low positions in the SERPS. SEF? (Search Engine Friendly Urls) - The current setup is fine, but there is a session ID that needs to be avoided, maybe we can fix this in the configuration of the store, this session ID in the urls can also harm the positions in google in the long run. Current in the SERPS - Currently the site is doing pretty well for some keywords, here we have some live examples: Custom door mats , Custom coco mats , Custom logo mats , (note the result is in the second page, not in the first page!) - I want to take this as a base example for making adjustments in the titles of the categories in the store, for example we can make a test here for this particular page (category title) by taking out the word 'PRINT' of the title. We can probably see a jump to higher positions for this search. Link Building? - I can see that some work has been done for building links, reciprocal and one-way links. More on this need to be done.

I have always though that canonical urls was a must fix for every site, because it was logic consecuence of the famous 'Duplicated Content' issue. Days ago, Matt Cutts (Google Enginer) has confirmed the issue and even presented a,... lets say, tag solution (a line code we should put in between the head tags), this tag could be solving the canonical urls issue. We should say that: www.example.com example.com www.example.com/index.php example.com/index.php www.example.com/home.html and so on... Are Not The Same site for the google crawler's eyes, thus, we are not playing well or 'legally' about the Duplicated Content Rules :) so you can get hit/penalized by google search engine (your page rank can drop dramatically) Solutions: As per page solution: <link rel="canonical" href="http://example.com/page.html"/> As per site entrance solution: In your .htaccess file add this RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] With this addition your site will load ALWAYS as yoursite.com whatever your visitors use www. or not . As per Joomla users: Please refer to this website's article " That's ok, but I dont care about all this! " - Yes no problem you can continue using your site without fixing this canonical issue but be sure that your site is loosing positions in google dramatically, because simply your site looks like is having/using duplicate content. That simple. Are you still don't care about it? Be first to comment this article | Quote this article on your site | Views: 1115 |
