Top Search Engine Marketing Courses Online

When I think of the phrase "search engine marketing" I usually tend to think of the PPC (pay-per-click) side of SEO, which are the ads you see right above, below and on the sides of the organic search results. Anything in the organic search results I consider SEO (search engine optimization) because you're optimizing that content to rank highly. Where, on the other hand, with PPC, as long as you bid the most you'll show up #1. But, instead of just sharing what I consider to be the top search engine marketing courses, I'm going to share suggestions for courses on both search engine marketing and search engine optimization. Now, when it comes to what I consider a great course, you have to really evaluate what your goals are for taking the course. I will assume that most people reading this article work for themselves and are interested in this information so they can make more money, not so they can do enterprise SEO for a large company. Which is why I...

Duplicate Content On Same Domain SEO Strategy

In my experience duplicate content penalties are a complete myth. I've had success in spite of having duplicate content on the same domain. Heck, I've even made sales from entire sites that were complete duplicates. So, in this post I want to share a really simple strategy for using duplicate content to your advantage to help siphon valuable traffic from search engines. The first step is we're going to focus on targeting  long tail keywords . But not just one or two...a TON of them. The benefit of optimizing content for longer tail search phrases is that they're far less competitive to rank for, and there's more buyer intent. To find keyword suggestions you can use a free tool like  KeywordTool.io . I usually start with a root keyword like "teeth whitening". Once you have your list of keywords,  write a generic article  about that root keyword, and try to include and talk about several of the longer tail keywords you found from KeywordT...

How To Make Money With Clickbank And YouTube

One of the easiest affiliate networks to get started with as a beginner affiliate marketer is  Clickbank . And one of the simplest methods for getting traction and sales quickly from promoting Clickbank products is by using  YouTube videos . Now, just making a video alone likely isn't going to result in you making consistent sales. You need to target the right keywords. Ideally you'd want to optimize your video filename, title and description for a long tail keyword. So, instead of crossing your fingers and hoping to get found for a video about "making money online"... Instead you would optimize your content to rank for a keyword like "clickbank autopilot system free". To get ideas and suggestions for long tail keywords to target, you can use a free tool like  KeywordTool.io  - just plug in a root keyword and it will spit out hundreds of related long tail search phrases that people are actually typing in to the search engines. Each of these...

How To Create Residual Income From Home

Everybody likes the idea of passive and residual income... But the thing that most people don't think about when they consider working for themselves is that they no longer have the comfort of a steady paycheck... Which means they have to re-create that paycheck. The good news is that this is relatively simple to do with the Internet. There's so many different ways to make money online but the one I want to focus on is  affiliate marketing . Affiliate marketing is kind of like being a salesperson. You market and promote other people's products and services and when people purchase that product using your referral link you earn a commission. The more sales you make, the more commissions you earn. And there's so many different  products and services you can promote . Even if you were to focus on a super tiny or obscure niche like "knitting for people over 60" that would most of the time be plenty enough to produce a comfortable full-time inco...

SEO Link Building Strategies For Affiliate Websites

There are a lot of myths and theories when it comes to the "best" linkbuilding strategies to get a website to rank. But in my opinion, experience and a lot of testing is going to give you the proper insights into what really works. However, I will share some tips based on what I generally do to boost the authority of my money sites. If it's a new domain I will typically start by sending a few high authority backlinks to the  root domain  with the anchor text either being the name of the site or the exact URL. To do this you either  buy your own expired domains  and point links from those domains to the sites you want to rank (creating your own private blog network). Or you can just buy high powered links from other sites like  The HOTH . After this I will start building some social bookmark and web 2.0 property links to the root domain as well as the inner pages. For the anchor text of the social bookmark links if it's to my homepage I'll just u...

Best Solo Ad Vendors For Opportunity Seekers

There are hundreds of solo ad vendors that exist... However, one of the most common types of  solo ads  are for people who are interested in business opportunities and making money online. But not all solo ad vendors are created equally. There's a lot of garbage sellers out there that will send you bogus clicks and then run with your money. So, I've compiled a list of legitimate solo ad vendors that offer affordable pricing and also allow you to scale pretty high.

How To Make Money Teaching Simple Courses On Udemy

One of the easiest and lowest cost methods to get started making money online is to teach simple courses on online course marketplaces like  Udemy . You don't need to have any special qualifications to publish courses on their platform and the only tools you really need are... A computer A quality microphone Some screen recording software For the computer I suggest a laptop, since they're more mobile. I use a  MacBook Pro . You don't have to go with a Mac, but I highly recommend them. This is going to be by far your most expensive investment. The next thing you will need is a quality external microphone. Most internal microphones aren't that high quality and Udemy is very strict on wanting their audio to be high quality. So, I use and recommend an inexpensive USB mic like the  Blue Yeti . The other tool you will need to buy is a screen recording software. If you're using a Mac then I recommend  ScreenFlow . And if you're using a PC...
