Google SEO Secrets Explained.

By Peter Jon Drew

The main problems with getting listed in google?

There's nothing worse finally getting your website indexed in google after much work gaining strong back links, only to find that your pages have supplemental results.

What is supplemental results? You can tell if your site is in the supplemental index by entering site: yourdomain.com in google, if any of the resulting pages have the words " Supplemental Results - in green beside the listing, this shows your these pages are in the supplemental index.

What does google say about supplemental results?

Supplemental sites are part of Google’s auxiliary index. We’re able to place fewer restraints on sites that we crawl for this supplemental index than we do on sites that are crawled for our main index. For example, the number of parameters in a URL might exclude a site from being crawled for inclusion in our main index; however, it could still be crawled and added to our supplemental index.

Yeah Yeah, auxiliary index? fewer restraints?

Simply what this means your pages are in fact indexed in google, but in the lower ranking index, which is where you really do not want to be.

How long to get out of this other index? generally anywhere from 9 to 12 months, with some execptions.

More from Google

The index in which a site is included is completely automated; there’s no way for you to select or change the index in which your site appears. Please be assured that the index in which a site is included does not affect its PageRank.

Erhm, Rubbish, you will never see a website/page in the supplemental index with PageRank.Though, having links from authority high PR websites can help your site get out of the supps.

So, now we know about supps and how it affects your labours in creating your fantastic website, which is now in Google Hell so to speak, whats the best way to avoid it if Possible?

How about purchasing a domain that has already passed the 9 to 12 months in the supplemental index or google hell as we call it?

What if I said there are literally 1000's and 1000's of domains like this dropping every day?

What if I said a lot of these sites even have PR and Backlinks from strong Authority websites and directories?

What if I said these domains with new content on them get indexed FAST! and do not get listed in google hell :)

Wouldn't it make a lot of sense to put your valuable time into creating your new website on one of these domains ?

I've been teaching these strategies now for over 18 months to the members of my various sites, I am now going to share with everybody else exactly what is required to be successful using these strategies. and how to avoid the most common mistakes people make while doing this.

Its very simple

1. Find a domain which has just expired

2. Check to see if it has at least 2 pages in the google index and is not in the supplemental results.

3. Check this domain in Archive.org you can use their great wayback machine, which has a copy of just about every website on the internet, which gives you a peek into the past to see what type of website was on this domain, later I'll explain what domains to avoid.

4. Check to see if this domain is at least 2 years old. meaning its first registration was at least 2 years from the current date.

Using these points alone, one friend of mine increased his overall gross monthly income by a massive 30% and got him from 5 figures a month to 6 figures. I make note of this to point out, these strategies are just as successful for experienced online marketers as they are for people brand new to internet marketing.

I believe this is the absolute cheapest and simplest way to increase your online income by 30% to 200%.

Ok, now you know what to do, what's the best place to find these expired domains and the easiest way to check them?

Criteria of Choosing an Ideal Web Hosting Company

By Leo L.

Before we talk about what it takes to be a cheap and good quality web host, let’s get to the fundamental first.

What is a Web Host?
A web host is a service provider that places your web site on a computer which is connected to the internet. The term for this ‘computer’ is called a server.

A web hosting provider will typically have a fast connection to the Internet and they may host thousands of web sites on many servers. The web host essentially rents out space to you so that you can get your website up on the world wide web.

With a well-managed web host, you can free yourself from worrying the up-keep of complicated server technology and proper technical maintenance. That’s the whole purpose of the web hosting companies. You should leave the technical work to web hosting professional while you focus on your own internet business.

Let’s begin...

Feature Offered
The features that web hosting companies are offering are getting quite standard nowadays.

The followings are some of the common features you'll see in most web hosting plans:

• Control Panel
  Control Panel is an interface where you can access your site on the web server, allowing you to set-up and subsequently update and customize your web site. Though cPanel is by far the most popular control panel, some hosting providers customize their own so that they can up-grade and expand it at will.
• Diskspace
  A vast majority of sites that don't have tons of graphics, sound and video clips or downloadable files easily fit in 50 MB of disk space. You should always leave yourself some room for growth or check if the host has a bigger plan in case you need to upgrade.
• Bandwidth
  Bandwidth is the amount of data transmitted or received through a unit of time. In web hosting, bandwidth is consumed when visitors make requests for files on your web site and download them to their personal computers.
• Email Account
  With POP3 email accounts you can check email from Outlook, Netscape Mail, Eudora or any other Email software.
• Scripting language
  As all our top 10 listings are using Unix and Linux platform, php, perl and CGI are the languages we are talking about here. It is best to choose a host that supports the latest version to maximize the latest web technologies for the fee that you pay.
• Database
  If your web site is going to store a lot of data that should be dynamically accessible (like user accounts, stock prices, maps, Interactive news, message boards and forum etc.), you'll need to look for an account that offers a database. MySQL is a powerful and most popular database program that runs on the Linux operation system. It is able to handle million of entries all at once. Its flexibility and speed allow you to also store logs and pictures. MySQL is designed to scale well under heavy traffic conditions and is ideal for database-intensive or e-commerce-enabled Web sites.

Customer Service/Support
No matter if you are an expert or a novice in web hosting, you need a web host with good customer support system. What is the criteria of an excellent customer support? Let us explain.

• How big is the knowledge base?
  This is particularly important for those who want to search for quick answer without seeking direct assistance from customer support staff. Due to the huge database, normally it’s searchable. Some web hosting providers will even make your life easier by making a video tutorial guiding you step by step in setting up your new account. Very useful for beginner.

• Responsive customer service staff.
  If you are too lazy to find the answer out of a big pool of database, get the direct answer from someone who knows it. Direct customer support comes in a few forms.
  a. Email support
  
  b. Phone support: Normally, sales and technical support uses separate phone line. A good phone support staff knows what your problem is and answers with relevance.
  
  c.Web Host like Lunarpages and Globat even have live chat support. However, it’s not how many support channels that are available but how responsive it is of the staff. You can find out the hosting reviews and ratings of each of our Top 10 Cheap Web Host.

Price to Disk Space / Price to Bandwidth Ratio
Are you paying too much for your Web Hosting Plan?
Having done the research on hundreds of web hosting companies, in general, we’ve come to this conclusion: the more disk space and bandwidth you are getting, the more expensive is the monthly price.

To help you understand which price is competitive enough for you to take up the offer, we have categorized 5 different price range. For each price range, a score of maximum of 10 is assigned. To understand the concept behind this, please refer to the details here.

Popularity
A web host might have the best feature offered, unbeatable customer support and reliability in place but without an effective marketing plan, it will go bust too. Let’s face it. If a web hosting provider does not have sufficient members and steady growth of new members, it’s very difficult to survive in this highly competitive industry.

We judge the popularity of a particular web hosting provider by looking at the number of awards won, the reviews of other websites and the Alexa traffic ranking.

All the hosting providers listed on our Top 10 Cheap Web Hosting Directory are among the top 40,000 most visited websites in the world.

Reliability, Speed and Uptime Guarantee
Nothing can hurt you more than this: your visitors come to your web site only to find that it’s not accessible. You lose credibility and possibly even a sale. If your web host does not guarantee at least a 99% uptime, leave the web host now!

To ensure maximum uptime, installation of redundant back-up systems is essential. Each web host has their own management systems to minimize downtime. "Redundant" means that if any of the Internet connections get interrupted, the alternate Internet connection will take over.

We use Alertra software to monitor the uptime of each of our top 10 web hosts.

As for speed, even though routing, web server set up and local area networks play a part in determining the speed of a site, the main concern of how fast your site is depends very much on the types of network connections.

Many hosting providers still connect to the Internet through T1, or T3 connections. This is not the case for our top 10 hosts- they are using OC (Optical Carrier) lines.

A T1 line will offer data transfer rate of 1.5 Mbps (megabits per second), while a T3 line can supply data transfer rates of 43Mbps. OC-1 refers to a circuit that transmits 51.85Mbps. Higher levels are multiples of that speed. Ultra-High Speed OC3 and OC12 lines offers 155Mbps and 622Mbps respectively. Some hosting providers have connections to major internet backbones at the speed of OC48 (2488Mbps) and OC96 (4976Mbps).
