How To Get To The Top Of Search Engines Fast

Yesterday’s post got to the front page of Google for a popular search term, within 10 HOURS!

And that’s with over 200,000 results:
“A Useful Free Internet Marketing Tool“.

In this post, I’m going to explain exactly how you can do that too.

But first of all, here’s the proof (see the bottom of this screenshot) Or, you can go to Google yourself and type in “A Useful Free Internet Marketing Tool”, yourself. Results vary, of course, so by the time you read this, it might be higher, or lower than it is displayed in the image below, and it will no longer say “10 hours ago”.

Now then, incase ‘front page of Google’ doesn’t mean anything to you, let me explain why it is so important.

About 80% of traffic on the Internet arrives at websites via the search engines. And Google has 45% or so of the search engine marketplace.

So if you can get your page ranked in the first page of Google for a common search term (or problem statement) in your niche, you’re well placed for the lion’s share of the traffic.

And this is an easy and FREE way of reaching them. It illustrates the power and speed of blogging as an Internet Marketing promotion tool.

And how can you use that traffic?

OK - here’s one way (the way I use it…)

Put a signup form on your blog, for a free ebook or something. Just make sure that on signup, your users are directed to a sales page. Either for your product, or one you’re affiliated to. That way, you’ll make money and build your list very quickly at the same time.

If you’ve got an MVS site (My Viral Spiral), then you can get the code for your signup box, to place in the side bar of your blog, straight from it. All the redirection is then looked after directly in your MVS site. Simply use the “Web Form Code” box.

You can still do this if you don’t have an MVS site yet, but are a member of someone elses. Or, if you want to join one, join mine: TimsViralSpiral.com (click register at this page)

I’ve had over 100 signups in the past 24 hours from my blog. Normally I get about 20 or so in the same time frame.

So yeah - the method I’m about to give you works!

And now I’ll explain how to do it.

1. Get A Blog

If you haven’t got a blog yet, I strongly recommend you get one. My preference is to use Wordpress on your own domain, rather than a hosted one at Blogger or whatever.

If your webhost is worth their salt, they should give you Fantastico in your Cpanel. You can install WordPress from there for free. If not, you can download it, and install it to your site from wordpress.com

If you have an MVS site, you can ask us for your CPanel details… drop us a ticket in the tech help at timshelpdesk.com with your name and domain name and ask for your Cpanel username and password. You’ll find Fantastico at the bottom right of your Cpanel.

There’s a ton of useful stuff for managing your domain in Cpanel. If you need any help with it, try Discover-Cpanel.com

2. Install The Bookmarker Plugin

Once you’ve got your blog set up, install the bookmarker plugin from SocialMarker.com. That way, every post you make will have a bookmarker button at the bottom of it, like this one does.

Your readers, and you, can then bookmark your post with as many of the social bookmarking sites as you like. This will improve your ranking in the search engines fast.

Next, decide what problem statement you’re going after. (Mine was “A Useful Free Internet Marketing Tool”), and make a post with that as your Title.

When they’re spidering blogs, Google, and the other search engines, value the title with more importance than the post contents. That’s why it always important to title your posts carefully. And using known problem statements in your niche is always a good option.

By problem statement, I mean try and match, as closely as you can, the search term your prospects are likely to use to search for your product or service.

You want to be intercepting their search.

3. Write Your Post

Then write something useful underneath, for the body of your blog post. A post need only be 500 words, or less. Many are way less, but to get credence with a search engine, its best to aim for more than 400 words.

Be sure, too, to add some tags to your post. You don’t need too many but choose them carefully and make sure they’re good keywords for your niche. In Wordpress, the ‘tags’ box appears underneath the ‘post’ box.

If you’ve got a list, direct them to it with a broadcast. You want as many people as possible clicking your bookmark button and bookmarking your post. The more who visit, the more will bookmark it. Its another percentage thing - Internet Marketing is full of them!

Oh, and don’t forget to click on your Bookmark button after you’ve published your post, and bookmark it yourself!

So there you have it - a free way to get traffic, signups and sales using smart blogging and social bookmarking.
