Search Engine Tips May Offer Deep Impact On Your Site Or Blog Traffic

"If this doesn't make for a spectacular July the 4th, what does?"

And you're thinking, "Am I at the right blog?" Yes, this is a blog about improving your business by better implementing your online marketing campaign for Reliv. The bottom line goal is to get quality "hits"... not a hit like Comet Tempel 1, but a hit none-the-less from a targeted visitor.

Why all the NASA talk you ask? Well the truth is, I found this news story fascinating (perhaps like you and umteen others) and felt it was rather topical for this 4th of July holiday.

It just so happens that being "topical" and relating what you do with Reliv to news and current events is also an effective marketing strategy. Millions of people are on the net today, tomorrow, and at all times, seeking news or details about all sorts of current events. If you're writing about that event or news item, you can increase the odds that searchers will find you. If what you do (or what you market) is related in some way, then "bingo" you'll create some real traffic fireworks at your blog or site.

If you are as well prepared and "on the mark" as NASA was in their Deep Impact Mission, the magnitude of success you can achieve by riding on the comet tail of current events and news stories can be as spectacular as one might imagine. The impact on your business can be equally stellar.

In my previous blog entry we started our series of PPC search engine tips that can help your campaign for better targeted earthbound visitors. So without further comet (or is it comment?), let's continue...

Pay per click tips for this week:

• Remember that with PPC campaigns, you are not sending search visitors to a site, you are sending them to a web page (called: a destination or landing page). You must discover keywords and set-up ONE page at a time.
• Remember that people search by typing in more than one word:
• The 7 most used word phrases in search engines according to OneStat.com:
• 2 word phrases 32.58%
• 3 word phrase 25.61%
• 1 word phrases 19.02%
• 4 word phrases 12.83%
• 5 word phrases 5.64%
• 6 word phrases 2.32%
• 7 word phrases 0.98%
• Start your "keyword discovery" process by visiting the destination page you intend to send your search engine visitors to. Put on the 'reading glasses' of a customer and look at your page through their eyes.
• Ask yourself this: "What keywords might a person type in a search box where when they arrived at this destination page, they'd say 'BINGO' this is what I was looking for?" Find these keywords and you've discovered your best keywords.

In my previous blog post I included the first installment of tips. You will find additional help for your PPC campaign there.
