However good your web hosting might be, sooner or later you will have some downtime. It happens to all of us. If you can be the first to know when your site goes down, though, the problem will be much smaller, because you will be able to contact the customer support and hopefully solve the issue before most readers even notice it.

Below you will find 5 tools that can help you with that.

1. Pingdom

You are able to use Pingdom to check your web hosting every 5 minutes, and when your blog is down, Pingdom will notice you via Email, SMS or even Twitter. But, only one website can be monitored for free account. So, if you have two or more websites, you can upgrade to a premium account, or put all your websites in the same web hosting, or use other free similar services mentioned below.

2. Binary Canary

With Binary Canary free services, you are able to select the detecting frequency as 15 min, 30 min or 60 min. You are able to monitor 5 websites, and when the websites are down, you will receive email alerts, no SMS alert.

3. Are My Sites Up

As a free user, your website will be checked every 1 hour. You are able to monitor 5 websites, to manage your account easily with iPhone, and to receive unlimited SMS alerts. But there are some ads on your dashboard, and there is no detailed report.

4. Hyperspin

Hyperspin support multiple languages and multiple monitoring locations (but it didn’t say how many). For free account, the websites will be detected every 60 minutes, and you will receive an email alert when the websites are down, no SMS alert.

5. AlertX

When registering a free account in AlertX, you are able to monitor 1 website, which will be auto-detect every 3 hours. When the website is down, you will receive an email alert, no SMS alert is available.

Are the free services offered by the above 5 websites workable for you? Please share your comments if you have any other similar services.

Here are our top 7 tips for Google Website Optimizer when you are getting started and looking for fast, actionable feedback to improve your website conversion rates.

1. Keep it Simple
Start with A/B Testing and test major page changes with fewer variations. Google offers some sophisticated functionality for performing multivariate tests but remember that these complex tests take much longer to get actionable feedback since much higher traffic and ultimately conversions are necessary.

2. Conversion within 1-click
An important lesson we have learned is to use a conversion step within one click of the page you are testing because too many variables can come into play that may drastically impact your testing results when using a conversion step that is multiple steps away. For example, if you are testing the conversion of product detail page changes you likely want to use the cart page as the conversion step (1 step away) versus the order confirmation page which may be 3 or more steps away. When using the order confirmation page your test results will likely be skewed by the performance of your cart and checkout process, especially if you are running a simultaneous test on one of these other steps.

3. Don’t Run Overlapping Tests
Be very careful not to run tests that may impact or be impacted by other tests. For example, avoid testing simultaneous tests in the checkout process.

4. Test Pages with Most Potential Impact
Use Google Analytics and user feedback mechanisms like 4Q surveys, Usability tests to identify areas on your site that will bring the most improvement to your conversion rates. Here are some tips on the common pages to prioritize in your testing efforts:
- Top of Sales Funnel
(i.e. Home, Category & Product Detail pages)
- Higher Traffic
(i.e. Top Landing/Entry pages, Top Exit pages & Highest Bounce Rate pages)
- Key Process Step
(i.e. Cart, Checkout, Account Registration, & Lead Generation Forms)
(hint: if you have a required registration step REMOVE it)

5. Disable Poor Performing Variations
Google Website Optimizer reports will give you visual feedback on your tests. When a test is a success the report will highlight the test variation in green, if it is a failure it will turn red, and when the variation is in progress and not a winner or loser it will be yellow. For example, if you are running your control page (A) against say 3 variation pages (B1, B2, B3) and you see that 1-2 of your variations (B2 & B3) turn red and are performing significantly worse than your control (A) and variation (B1) we recommend disabling (B2 & B3) to accelerate the test to more quickly get the actionable input you are looking for.

6. Failed Tests are Successes
Don’t be too frustrated when your new page variations fail. Remember that you have successfully prevented damaging your website conversion rate. All tests are a success when you remember this important point.

7. Start with Best Practices (and then test them!)
To improve the likelihood that your tests will be a success, learn from other case studies and proven best practices to create new page testing variations. BUT remember that they are not steadfast rules and you must always Test! What works for Apple, Amazon, or a respected competitor in your industry might work for them but it doesn’t guarantee that it will work for you. Just because you see a certain design, layout, or feature on another site doesn’t mean that is working or that it has been tested successfully.

A considerable portion of my consulting time has recently revolved around the optimization of corporate blogs (or the addition of blogs to revamped sites). As usual, I find a pattern emerging in the strategies that need attention and the pitfalls that must be avoided. So, rather than charging $400 an hour to give advice on the subject, I thought it would be valuable to share many of the most common pieces of advice here on the blog (business part of Rand fights with open source Rand, but loses, as usual).

1. Choose the Right Blog Software (or Custom Build)

• The right blog CMS makes a big difference. If you want to set yourself apart, I recommend creating a custom blog solution - one that can be completely customized to your users. In most cases, WordPress, Blogger, MovableType or Typepad will suffice, but building from scratch allows you to be very creative with functionality and formatting. The best CMS is something that's easy for the writer(s) to use and brings together the features that allow the blog to flourish. Think about how you want comments, archiving, sub-pages, categorization, multiple feeds and user accounts to operate in order to narrow down your choices. OpenSourceCMS is a very good tool to help you select a software if you go that route.

2. Host Your Blog Directly on Your Domain

• Hosting your blog on a different domain from your primary site is one of the worst mistakes you can make. A blog on your domain can attract links, attention, publicity, trust and search rankings - by keeping the blog on a separate domain, you shoot yourself in the foot. From worst to best, your options are - Hosted (on a solution like Blogspot or Wordpress), on a unique domain (at least you can 301 it in the future), on a subdomain (these can be treated as unique from the primary domain by the engines) and as a sub-section of the primary domain (in a subfolder or page - this is the best solution).

3. Write Title Tags with Two Audiences in Mind

• First and foremost, you're writing a title tag for the people who will visit your site or have a subscription to your feed. Title tags that are short, snappy, on-topic and catchy are imperative. You also want to think about search engines when you title your posts, since the engines can help to drive traffic to your blog. A great way to do this is to write the post and the title first, then run a few searches at Overture, WordTracker & KeywordDiscovery to see if there is a phrasing or ordering that can better help you to target "searched for" terms.

4. Participate at Related Forums & Blogs

• Whatever industry or niche you're in, there are bloggers, forums and an online community that's already active. Depending on the specificity of your focus, you may need to think one or two levels broader than your own content to find a large community, but with the size of the participatory web today, even the highly specialized content areas receive attention. A great way to find out who these people are is to use Technorati to conduct searches, then sort by number of links (authority). Del.icio.us tags are also very useful in this process, as are straight searches at the engines (Ask.com's blog search in particular is of very good quality).

5. Tag Your Content

• Technorati is the first place that you should be tagging posts. I actually recommend having the tags right on your page, pointing to the Technorati searches that you're targeting. There are other good places to ping - del.icio.us and Flickr being the two most obvious (the only other one is Blogmarks, which is much smaller). Tagging content can also be valuable to help give you a "bump" towards getting traffic from big sites like Reddit, Digg & StumbleUpon (which requires that you download the toolbar, but trust me - it's worth it). You DO NOT want to submit every post to these sites, but that one out of twenty (see tactic #18) is worth your while.

6. Launch Without Comments (and Add Them Later)

• There's something sad about a blog with 0 comments on every post. It feels dead, empty and unpopular. Luckily, there's an easy solution - don't offer the ability to post comments on the blog and no one will know that you only get 20 uniques a day. Once you're upwards of 100 RSS subscribers and/or 750 unique visitors per day, you can open up the comments and see light activity. Comments are often how tech-savvy new visitors judge the popularity of a site (and thus, its worth), so play to your strengths and keep your obscurity private.

7. Don't Jump on the Bandwagon

• Some memes are worthy of being talked about by every blogger in the space, but most aren't. Just because there's huge news in your industry or niche DOES NOT mean you need to be covering it, or even mentioning it (though it can be valuable to link to it as an aside, just to integrate a shared experience into your unique content). Many of the best blogs online DO talk about the big trends - this is because they're already popular, established and are counted on to be a source of news for the community. If you're launching a new blog, you need to show people in your space that you can offer something unique, different and valuable - not just the same story from your point of view. This is less important in spaces where there are very few bloggers and little online coverage and much more in spaces that are overwhelmed with blogs (like search, or anything else tech-related).

8. Link Intelligently

• When you link out in your blog posts, use convention where applicable and creativity when warranted, but be aware of how the links you serve are part of the content you provide. Not every issue you discuss or site you mention needs a link, but there's a fine line between overlinking and underlinking. The best advice I can give is to think of the post from the standpoint of a relatively uninformed reader. If you mention Wikipedia, everyone is familiar and no link is required. If you mention a specific page at Wikipedia, a link is necessary and important. Also, be aware that quoting other bloggers or online sources (or even discussing their ideas) without linking to them is considered bad etiquette and can earn you scorn that could cost you links from those sources in the future. It's almost always better to be over-generous with links than under-generous. And link condoms? Only use them when you're linking to something you find truly distasteful or have serious apprehension about.

9. Invite Guest Bloggers

• Asking a well known personality in your niche to contribute a short blog on their subject of expertise is a great way to grow the value and reach of your blog. You not only flatter the person by acknowledging their celebrity, you nearly guarantee yourself a link or at least an association with a brand that can earn you readers. Just be sure that you really are getting a quality post from someone that's as close to universally popular and admired as possible (unless you want to start playing the drama linkbait game, which I personally abhor). If you're already somewhat popular, it can often be valuable to look outside your space and bring in guest authors who have a very unique angle or subject matter to help spice up your focus. One note about guest bloggers - make sure they agree to have their work edited by you before it's posted. A disagreement on this subject after the fact can have negative ramifications.

10. Eschew Advertising (Until You're Popular)

11. Go Beyond Text in Your Posts

• Blogs that contain nothing but line after line of text are more difficult to read and less consistently interesting than those that offer images, interactive elements, the occasional multimedia content and some clever charts & graphs. Even if you're having a tough time with non-text content, think about how you can format the text using blockquotes, indentation, bullet points, etc. to create a more visually appealing and digestible block of content.

12. Cover Topics that Need Attention

• In every niche, there are certain topics and questions that are frequently asked or pondered, but rarely have definitive answers. While this recommendation applies to nearly every content-based site, it's particularly easy to leverage with a blog. If everyone in the online Nascar forums is wondering about the components and cost of an average Nascar vehicle - give it to them. If the online stock trading industry is rife with questions about the best performing stocks after a terrorist threat, your path is clear. Spend the time and effort to research, document and deliver and you're virtually guaranteed link-worthy content that will attract new visitors and subscribers.

13. Pay Attention to Your Analytics

• Visitor tracking software can tell you which posts your audience likes best, which ones don't get viewed and how the search engines are delivering traffic. Use these clues to react and improve your strategies. Feedburner is great for RSS and I'm a personal fan of Indextools. Consider adding action tracking to your blog, so you can see what sources of traffic are bringing the best quality visitors (in terms of time spent on the site, # of page views, etc). I particularly like having the "register" link tagged for analytics so I can see what percentage of visitors from each source is interested enough to want to leave a comment or create an account.

14. Use a Human Voice

• Charisma is a valuable quality, both online and off. Through a blog, it's most often judged by the voice you present to your users. People like empathy, compassion, authority and honesty. Keep these in the forefront of your mind when writing and you'll be in a good position to succeed. It's also critical that you maintain a level of humility in your blogging and stick to your roots. When users start to feel that a blog is taking itself too seriously or losing the characteristics that made it unique, they start to seek new places for content. We've certainly made mistakes (even recently) that have cost us some fans - be cautious to control not only what you say, but how you say it. Lastly - if there's a hot button issue that has you posting emotionally, temper it by letting the post sit in draft mode for an hour or two, re-reading it and considering any revisions. With the advent of feeds, once you publish, there's no going back.

15. Archive Effectively

• The best archives are carefully organized into subjects and date ranges. For search traffic (particularly long tail terms), it can be best to offer the full content of every post in a category on the archive pages, but from a usability standpoint, just linking to each post is far better (possibly with a very short snippet). Balance these two issues and make the decision based on your goals. A last note on archiving - pagination in blogging can be harmful to search traffic, rather than beneficial (as you provide constantly changing, duplicate content pages). Pagination is great for users who scroll to the bottom and want to see more, though, so consider putting a "noindex" in the meta tag or in the robots.txt file to keep spiders where they belong - in the well-organized archive system.

16. Implement Smart URLs

• The best URL structure for blogs is, in my opinion, as short as possible while still containing enough information to make an educated guess about the content you'll find on the page. I don't like the 10 hyphen, lengthy blog titles that are the byproduct of many CMS plugins, but they are certainly better than any dynamic parameters in the URL. Yes - I know I'm not walking the talk here, and hopefully it's something we can fix in the near future. To those who say that one dynamic parameter in the URL doesn't hurt, I'd take issue - just re-writing a ?ID=450 to /450 has improved search traffic considerably on several blogs we've worked with.

17. Reveal as Much as Possible

• The blogosphere is in love with the idea of an open source world on the web. Sharing vast stores of what might ordinarily be considered private information is the rule, rather than the exception. If you can offer content that's usually private - trade secrets, pricing, contract issues, and even the occasional harmless rumor, your blog can benefit. Make a decision about what's off-limits and how far you can go and then push right up to that limit in order to see the best possible effects. Your community will reward you with links and traffic.

18. Only One Post in Twenty Can Be Linkbait

• Not every post is worthy of making it to the top of Digg, Del.icio.us/popular or even a mention at some other blogs in your space. Trying to over-market every post you write will result in pushback and ultimately lead to negative opinions about your efforts. The less popular your blog is, the harder it will be to build excitement around a post, but the process of linkbait has always been trial and error - build, test, refine and re-build. Keep creating great ideas and bolstering them with lots of solid, everyday content and you'll eventually be big enough to where one out of every 20-40 posts really does become linkbait.

19. Make Effective Use of High Traffic Days

• If you do have linkbait, whether by design or by accident, make sure to capitalize. When you hit the front page of Digg, Reddit, Boing Boing, or, on a smaller scale, attract a couple hundred visitors from a bigger blog or site in your space, you need to put your best foot forward. Make sure to follow up on a high traffic time period with 2-3 high quality posts that show off your skills as a writer, your depth of understanding and let visitors know that this is content they should be sticking around to see more of. Nothing kills the potential linkbait "bump" faster than a blog whose content doesn't update for 48 hours after they've received a huge influx of visitors.

20. Create Expectations and Fulfill Them

• When you're writing for your audience, your content focus, post timing and areas of interest will all become associated with your personal style. If you vary widely from that style, you risk alienating folks who've come to know you and rely on you for specific data. Thus, if you build a blog around the idea of being an analytical expert in your field, don't ignore the latest release of industry figures only to chat about an emotional issue - deliver what your readers expect of you and crunch the numbers. This applies equally well to post frequency - if your blog regularly churns out 2 posts a day, having two weeks with only 4 posts is going to have an adverse impact on traffic. That's not to say you can't take a vacation, but you need to schedule it wisely and be prepared to lose RSS subscribers and regulars. It's not fair, but it's the truth. We lose visitors every time I attend an SES conference and drop to one post every two days (note - guest bloggers and time-release posts can help here, too).

21. Build a Brand

• Possibly one of the most important aspects of all in blogging is brand-building. As Zefrank noted, to be a great brand, you need to be a brand that people want to associate themselves with and a brand that people feel they derive value from being a member. Exclusivity, insider jokes, emails with regulars, the occasional cat post and references to your previous experiences can be off putting for new readers, but they're solid gold for keeping your loyal base feeling good about their brand experience with you. Be careful to stick to your brand - once you have a definition that people like and are comfortable with, it's very hard to break that mold without severe repercussions. If you're building a new blog, or building a low-traffic one, I highly recommend writing down the goals of your brand and the attributes of its identity to help remind you as you write.

Best of luck to all you bloggers out there. It's an increasingly crowded field to play in, but these strategies should help to give you an edge over the competition. As always, if you've got additions or disagreements, I'd love to hear them.

I get asked this all the time, whether via Alexa's forums, or after work by my friends: How do I get more traffic to my Web site? I wish there was just some simple button that I could tell people to push and that it would solve all their traffic issues. But it doesn't exist; if it did, everybody would already be using it.

But there are whole heaps of great advice, which if followed, will lead to more visitors to your site. What follows is a simple to follow list of best practices to help get you on your way.

1. On-Site Factors. Start with your site. You need to make it the best it can be. So that it will be
attractive to visitors AND search engines.

• Keywords. What is your site about? Find a few key words and phrases that you think describe your site and that people may actually enter into a search box on Google. If you pick very popular keywords and phrases, you might be disappointed. Millions of people will search for those keywords and phrases, but you will be way down the search results because lots of sites are optimized for those phrases. If you pick less popular keywords and phrases, you may have a shot of actually showing up in the search results because fewer sites have optimized for those keywords and phrases.
• Optimize Your Site. Use your keywords and phrases on your site. Put them in the title of your page, in the H1 tags, metatags and throughout your site. Use them in the text of links that point to your page. Shoot for having keyword density of about 6%.
• Have Good Content. You should strive to have something new on your site once per day. Don't let your site get stale... Google's algorithms will notice and so will visitors to your site. If you don't have a lot of time to create unique content every day, consider putting up a daily poll, creating a forum on your site, or leaving a comments field/Guest Book for visitors to fill out. If you use Twitter or Facebook, you can have your updates automatically appear on your site.
• Unique Value Proposition. Give something away on your site to your visitors to remember you by. Otherwise people may forget your site and won't come back. You can find interesting content on widgetbox.com, or you can give them a custom Alexa Toolbar. Just give them something.
• Create A Sitemap. Every time you update content on your site you should update your sitemap and submit the site map to Google, Yahoo, Bing, Ask, etc.. There are lots of free sitemap tools out there. Find one and get started. It is a great way to let Google know when your site is updated.
• Return Visitors. How are you going to get people to return to your site after they have left? You may want to consider an e-mail newsletter. But don't spam... please. If people like your content let them sign up to get your newsletter. You should also allow people to subscribe to your updates via facebook or twitter. Most blogs offer easy plugins for this feature.
• Link Bait. People love lists. Make lists of things that are relevant to your site and put them on your site, like top ten fishing sites. Then let the sites in your list know you have made your list. They may take that list and put it on their site... Or give out awards like "fishing site of the week." which brings us to...

2. Off-Site Factors. Once you have a great site you need to start thinking about other factors,
mostly links. If nobody links to your site you are going to have a tough time getting seen in
Google's results. More links = better placement in Google. So how do you get links?

• Link Number One. The first link is easy. Alexa already has a link to your site, and Alexa's page rank is high, so the link from Alexa counts more than most. You just need to let Google know that Alexa has a link to your site. How do you do that? Install the Google Toolbar then visit Alexa. But be sure to put your Alexa Toolbar back!
• Get Listed In Directories. Directories that are relevant to your site are generally more important than others, so if your site is about basket weaving, find a basket weaving directory and ask them to list your site. Get listed in as many as possible. And then find other general directories like DMOZ and get listed there. Are there Wikipedia articles that should list your site as a place for more information on a topic? Get listed.
• Participate In Social Media. Find forums that are relevant to your content and participate... a lot. Update your signature footer on the forum to include a link to your site. Use Twitter, Facebook, Digg, but, in all cases, do not just post or write about your own site. Nobody cares. Write and post about things that you care about, sometimes your site, and people who like your posts may make their way over to your site.
• Have Something Newsworthy. If you have something newsworthy, don't just blog about it. First post it as a press release on your site, then update your sitemap, then post it to the newswires, then submit it to ezine articles, Article Base and/or Go Articles, then blog about it, twitter about it, etc. If you do it right you will have at least a couple of new links to your site, and if you do it really right you could have dozens of new links.
• Advertise. There are lots of great advertising solutions out there. Google AdWords is a great place to start and, if done well, can offer you a good deal on targeted traffic. Display advertising can be effective and affordable as well. The social networks are now offering do-it-yourself advertising at reasonable prices, and even Alexa allows you to advertise at inexpensive CPMs.

And, as always, install the Alexa Toolbar. It won't increase the traffic to your site, but it won't hurt and you will be helping Alexa to track your site and helping the entire Internet Community by contributing to Alexa's Traffic Data.


Getting more traffic to your site is a journey. Take the first steps today, and with a little hard work and some luck, you will be counting your visitors in the millions before too long.

Author : Geoffrey Mack

Alexa's CEO, Niall O'Driscoll, once said to me "If you want to know how good a search engine optimization company is, type 'search engine optimization' into Google and see who comes up first." The logic is infallible. The same logic applies to Dentists and Barbers... if you walk into a barbershop and the barber has awful hair, walk out.



So I thought it would be interesting to take a quick look at three of the leading Search Engine Optimization sites out there, seochat.com, seobook.com and seomoz.org, and see what they do and how well they practice what they preach.



As a point of comparison, and to make sure this test is somewhat fair, each of the sites have similar traffic, with 3 month Alexa Ranks between 3500 and 2500, and daily visits between an average of 75K to 120K.



Test 1: Who ranks best for "search engine optimization"



Try it yourself. Search for "search engine optimization" on Google and see which of the three sites comes up first. Seochat comes up as the third result on the page, behind wikipedia and behind a Google article on search engine optimization. Seobook.com and seomoz.org are farther down the rankings. The graph below confirms it, seochat gets a much larger percent of their traffic from search engines than its competitors:





Surprisingly, to me anyway, seochat.com also wins this contest if you search for "seo".



Test 1 Winner: seochat.com



Test 2: Who has the most "high quality" links?

If you want traffic from Google you are going to have to work on more than your keywords. You are going to have to get a lot of high quality links pointing to your site. That, in short, is how Google will know whether your site is important or not, and it is how Google decides which site with the "right" keywords appears at the top of the results. So how did our sites do?



Let me give you a little help reading this graph. I have broken links into three types, ranging from most important (Links in Top 1,000) at the top, to least important (Links in Top 100,000) at the bottom. Starting at the top, you can see the seomoz.org wins the most links from sites that are in the Top 1,000. Seomoz.org also has the most links overall, giving it an important edge in search engine rankings.



Test 2 Winner: seomoz.org



Test 3: Which site has the most appeal?

Sometimes we can get so wrapped up talking about "keyword optimization" and "link building strategies" that we can forget about perhaps the most important factor of all. Appeal -- that certain "something" that keeps people on your page and keeps them coming back. How else are you going to get links to your site and get more traffic if your site lacks appeal?



But how do you measure appeal? I like to measure appeal with Bounce Rate (do people "bounce" away after visiting) and Time on Site. How did our sites do? Let's start with bounce rate:



With bounce rate a lower number is better, indicating that few people "bounce". It looks like all of these sites have a relatively high bounce rate, at 50% or above, with seobook.com with the largest bounce rate, at 70%. Before being too hard on seobook.com, their bounce rate is no doubt due to the "hard sell" interstitial sales technique that they use on their site. The first time I saw that form I was inclined to hit the back button, and if others do the same it will cause seobook.com's bounce rate to rise. But what is unknown to me, and perhaps more important than a good bounce rate, is how well seobook.com converts visitors to leads via this method.



One of the consequences of search engine optimization is that as you get really good at it your bounce rate is likely to go up. It might take a second for that to sink in. Your bounce rate will go up because you will be getting more and more traffic from search, and it will be less targeted traffic. All of these new visitors to your site are less likely to stick around and become customers.



Next up on our measure of appeal is Time on Site. How did our sites do?



With "Time on Site" you want to have a larger number, indicating that people are sticking around, making pageturns and hopefully becoming customers. What stands out here is that seobook.com has the lowest time on site, by a long shot. Again, this is likely due to their aggressive interstitial. The winner of the Time on Site category is seomoz.org with over 4.5 minutes on average.



Appeal is what I would call a leading indicator. If you score well in these areas you are likely to garner more links and have a shot at the top of the rankings. It is where people should start first when looking at their Internet Marketing efforts... building a site with content that people want to link to and come back to.



Test 3 winner: seomoz.org



Overall Winner

So who is the overall winner? The site with the most traffic wins, and that site is:



Surprise: seobook.com



Despite losing each of our three tests, seobook.com gets more traffic than seochat.com and seomoz.org. But how do they do it? Loyalty. Despite getting less traffic from search engines, and despite having fewer links than seomoz, and despite scaring away potential customers with aggressive marketing, seobook is doing quite well. They are converting visitors to customers, and turning those customers into regular visitors.



The take-away lesson is that good SEO is important, but it can't compete with a loyal and engaged user-base. Seobook.com is a perfect case in point.

Thanks DJENGGOT.

Meta tags merupakan cara menyampaikan infomasi penting ke search engine (Mesin Pencari) mengenai informasi suatu halaman, Ada banyak meta tag sesuai dengan standar HTML 4.0 dari World Wide Web Consortion, tapi sebenarnya yang betul-betul dipakai oleh search engine hanya 3, description, keyword, dan robots. Mengenai penjelasan meta tags karena sudah terlalu banyak yang menulis hal ini jadi djenggot pilih aja salah satu situs terbaik yang bisa dipercaya, informasi yang djenggot ambil berasal dari alamat ini http://www.promosi-web.com/ (semua penjelasan tidak ada pengeditan sebagaimana aslinya)

Meta Tag Description

<meta name="description" content="Promosi-web.com is a search engine tutorial that explain how to get top rangking in all major search engine and get high traffic for your web site. Available in Bahasa Indonesia."><br />

Meta tag description digunakan untuk memberikan gambaran umum mengenai isi dari halaman web Anda. Ukurannya disarankan tidak lebih dari 200 karakter. Dan usahakan agar description ini bisa menjadi
kalimat-kalimat yang letaknya di awal halaman web page yang bersangkutan. Contoh penulisan meta tag description adalah sebagai berikut :


Beberapa search engine seperti Nothern Light dan Google tidak memakai meta tags sebagai deskripsi hasil pencariannya. Yang mereka gunakan adalah kalimat-kalimat awal yang ada pada halaman tersebut.
Itulah sebabnya kenapa saya sarankan agar Anda menggunakan isi dari meta tag description sebagai kalimat pembuka. Dan jika bagian paling awal dari web Anda berupa sebuah menu, maka deskripsi yang
ditampilkan pada hasil pencarian Northern Light adalah seperti ini :
Home | Products and Service | Contact Us | About Us ...welcome to our online store, the best place on the
web to...

Meta Tag Keyword

Meta tag keyword sangat penting keberadaannya, karena menentukan kata kunci apa yang bisa menemukan halaman web tersebut pada search engine. Sintak dasar dari meta tag keyword adalah
sebagai berikut :

<meta name="keywords" content="keyword1 keyword2 keyword3 ..."><br />atau ada juga yang menulis dengan pemisah tanda koma :<br /><meta name="keywords" content=""><br />

Keduanya berfungsi sama dan tidak ada pengaruhnya pada search engine. Tujuan pemakaian tanda koma agar keyword-keyword tersebut lebih mudah dibaca. Yang perlu diperhatikan disini adalah jangan
mengulang sebuah kata lebih dari 3 kali, karena akan dianggap spamming. Contoh pemakaian meta tag keyword yang salah adalah :

<meta name="keywords" content=""><br />

Disini terlihat sekali bahwa kata "bali", diulang lebih dari 3 kali. Contoh berikut ini tidak akan dianggap spamming oleh search engine :

<meta name="keywords" content="bali hotels travel bali island bali weather"><br />

Yang tak kalah pentingnya mengenai keyword adalah jangan membuat keyword yang tidak ada hubungannya dengan isi halaman web Anda. Hal ini juga akan dianggap spamming. Misalkan web Anda
memuat informasi mengenai pariwisata di Bali, jangan sekali-kali menambahkan "MP3" atau "Britney Spears" sebagai keyword hanya karena keyword-keyword ini merupakan keyword favorit di internet dan
banyak dicari orang.

Meta Tag Robots

Tujuan utama penggunaan meta tag robots adalah untuk menentukan halaman web yang mana bisa diindex oleh spider dan halaman web mana yang tidak. Tag ini sangat berguna sekali terutama jika seuatu
website memakai frame untuk navigasinya. Tentunya kita tidak ingin menampilkan menu-menu dalam frame untuk dibaca oleh search engine. Format dasar dari meta tag robots adalah sebagai berikut :

<meta name="robots" content="index | noindex | follow | nofollow"><br />

Sebagai contoh, jika Anda ingin agar spider membaca main page, dan menelusuri semua link yang ada maka tambahkan perintah berikut ini :

<meta name="robots" content="index follow"><br />

Dengan perintah ini spider akan meng-index main page Anda dan menjadwalkan untuk mengindex halaman-halaman lain yang bisa dicari melalui hyperlink ().
Perintah berikut ini akan menginstruksikan agar spider tidak meng-index maupun menelusuri link yang ada pada suatu halaman web.

<meta name="robots" content="noindex nofollow"><br />

Lalu bagaimana memasang Meta Tags di Blogger :
Untuk memasang Meta tag diBlogger caranya cukup mudah, pertama masuk ke Edit HTML kemudian copy paste kode dibawah ini, biasanya kode meta tags diletakan dibawah kode dan jangan lupa merubah kode warna merah di bawah sesuai dengan deskripsi blog kamu.

<meta content="'" name="'description'/"><br /><meta content="'keyword1" name="'keywords'/"><br /><meta content="'INDEX," name="'ROBOTS'/"><br />

New websites need links to develop any sort of search engine visibility. Links pointing to a new website can get it indexed and help it to start ranking for low to medium competition long tail keywords. These keywords will send visitors searching for information on a specific topic to your website and allows you gain a new reader or make some money from whatever affiliate program or ad scheme you are running. I’ve recently set up several websites for some friends and link building was my main concern because I needed links for the webpages to be indexed and start showing up in the search engine. I’ve previously written about the best way to get traffic for new websites and this article complements that by focusing on ways you can use to quickly acquire some links that will help your website.

15 Link Building Strategies for New Websites

This collection of link building tips are likely to guarantee that you will receive free links from already established websites. This differs from content-oriented development strategies which hope to gradually attract natural editorial links.

These link building tips focus more on targeted link placement or link insertion, whereby you are likely to control the specific anchor text used. Some of them include agreements made with others and others involve one-way action on your part.

1. Submit your site to Web Directories. This is a pretty monotonous process that can get you several hundred backlinks if you have the time. An alternative would be to hire a manual directory submitter. Here’s a list of web directories you can use. You can also find some blog directories here.
2. Submit Press Releases to PR sites. A basic press release about your website’s launch can be released to several PR websites, who will distribute it to various online news outlets. A good way to get a free link. I recommend using PRWeb and PRLeap.
3. Reciprocal Links with Similar Websites. Its important to pick sites that are of high relevance so you’ll not only get links but traffic. Reciprocal linking can be useful from the beginning but don’t overdo it. You can find link partners by emailing them directly or searching through webmaster forums.
4. Squidoo Lenses. A Squidoo lens is fairly easy to create. It only takes around 15 minutes to set up one fully and you’ll be able to insert a bunch of anchor text links to your website along with your feed content. Hubpages is another similar site you can use.
5. Article Submissions. Create a short article on your niche topic and submit it to article directories for a backlink and some traffic. You might get more links if your article is picked up and published on other websites. Here is a list of article directories, sorted by Alexa and PageRank.
6. Social Media Profiles. There a whole bunch of social websites online which allow you to insert a link to your website on the profile page. Sign up for some of them, preferably using a username and avatar that brands your business or you as a person. This might come in useful when you decide to promote your site via the social website in the future.
7. Social Bookmarking/Voting Websites. Certain social voting websites like Netscape or Digg are often crawled by search engines and their links do help to get a website indexed. 3spots has the biggest list of social voting and bookmarking websites I’ve seen so far.
8. Forum Signatures. Sign up for some forums in your niche and start contributing to ongoing discussions. Insert a link to the homepage or some inner pages of your site.
9. Create a Tool, Theme or Widget. Pay a designer to come up with an add-on application or template that is related to a specific social network, popular website or platform. Include a credit link that points back to your designated website.
10. Blogs on Other Blog Platforms. Use existing blogs you have on other blog networks. Or set up different versions of your blog on different blog networks like Wordpress.com, Blogger and Xanga. Link to specific webpages on your website.
11. Comment on Other Blogs. Start commenting on relevant and popular sites in your niche. Don’t just spam for links but focus on building a relationship with other bloggers as well. Write a relevant comment and try to avoid using keyword names or signature links.
12. Guest posting on other blogs. Like article and press releases, this one involves having readily available content you can send out to certain blogs in your niche. This is great for getting relevant links and traffic.
13. Hold Contests. Some websites often offer contests in a bid to attract anchor text links from bloggers. An example is this iPhone giveaway on Gary Lee’s site. Contests allow you to determine the specific anchor text but its possible that too many links using the designated keyword may harm your domain instead.
14. Collaborative Projects. You may need to develop an article specifically for a writing project, blog carnival or meme but it will usually get you a couple of backlinks, depending on the number and generosity of the participants involved.
15. Offer your Expertise. This will apply if you have a specific skill set such as web design, copywriting, translation or SEO. Write to an established website and offer to revamp/optimize their website in return for a mention or credit link on a webpage. This offers excellent branding, particularly if your offer is picked up by a website with a decent audience.

This list is by no means comprehensive but are just some of the off-site methods I use to build links for very new websites. After I get a bunch of links, I’ll usually focus on niche networking and the development of exceptional content that’ll help to rapidly build a readership.

Sudah beberapa hari ini banyak yang menginformasikan kalo Google Adsense mulai support bahasa indonesia, salah satunya informasi yang om terima dari blognya Bayu Mukti beritanya bisa baca disini walau belum ada berita resmi dari pihak Google Adsense setelah iseng om coba ternyata bisa, bukti nyata bisa dilihat di blog saya. Kalo biasa nya cuma iklan layanan masyarakat yang muncul sekarang sudah rada mendingan, walaupun iklan yang muncul kadang gak sesuai dengan konten blog, ah bodo amat ya..yang penting keluar iklan aja udah syukur hehehe ya udah bagi rekan yang belum dicium alias account-nya belum kena banned sama om google bisa buruan pasang. Hati-hati dengan click fraud dan selamat meraup pundi-pundi Dollar. (kalau masih ragu sebaiknya gak usah dipasang resiko tanggung sendiri ya....)

Rekan punya desain template made in sendiri namun mempunyai kendala mempublikasikannya? jangan kuatir, sekarang saya mencoba membantu mempromosikannya langsung dengan melakukan review spesial di blog bebasdownload-gratis.blogspot.com.

Tunggu apa lagi sobat :) segera kirim desain template terbaik kaliansekarang juga. Silahkan kirim via mail ke bebasdownload-gratis.blogspot.com

Terus terang beberapa hari ini saya benar2 disibukan dengan urusan diluar sana, jadi urusan ngeblog kayaknya harus di nomor duakan dulu nih :( inipun saya sempatkan saja nulis sebentar hehehe ok to the point aja. Kali ini saya dapat kiriman tools terbaru lagi buat nge-cek harga blog anda via U2WS. Entah, saya sendiri juga belum benar2 mencobanya, jadi belum bisa mengatakan mana kalkulasi dari ke dua tools ini yang akurat dan mana yang terbaik. Silahkan rekan bandingkan sendiri aja ya :)
Layanan U2WS ini kayaknya hanya support untuk domain berbayar saja, jadi domain gratis *.co.cc *. blogspot.com dan *.wordpress.com sepertinya belum bisa di kalkulasi harganya.. tapi jangan kawatir, masih ada kok fasilitas lainnya yang bisa rekan coba.

Kartoo merupakan Search Engine dengan tampilan secara visual tik .. tok .. tik ..tok.. waktu berlalu.. bingung mau ngebahas apa? kayaknya semua search engine sama aja ya, sama-sama melakukan pencarian, namun yang ini berbeda karena hasil yang temukan akan ditampilkan secara visual. untuk mencoba Search Engine ini jelas browser harus mendukung Adobe Flash Player jika belum ada bisa di download disini

Apa yang menarik dari Search Engine kartoo:
Selain tampil secara visual SE ini juga mempunyai beberapa fitur yang lengkap yang bisa kamu coba. Setiap kita sekali saja melakukan pencarian maka SE ini akan menganalisa kembali mengenai keyword maupun topik yang berkaitan, Selain itu SE ini juga menampilkan relasi url yang berhubungan satu dengan yang lain, dari sini kita bisa melihat kemana saja arah backlink alamat URL Blog atau Website.

URLMetrix (beta) merupakan aplikasi yang memungkinkan kita untuk memeriksa popularitas URL (link popularity) suatu Blog atau WebSite. Hanya dengan memasukan alamat URL, kita langsung disuguhkan beberapa informasi penting tentang keberadaan, posisi dan ranking serta jumlah backlink dari beberapa layanan populer seperti Google PageRank, Alexa Rank, Compete Rank, Quantcast rank, Technorati Rank, Google Indexed, Yahoo Indexed, Google BackLinks, Yahoo BackLinks, Delicious Bookmarks, DMOZ Links dan beberapa layanan popular lainnya.
Bila dicermati, layanan URLMetrix ini sangat berguna sebagai media pembanding, dan apa saja yang perlu kita tingkatkan untuk bisa menyamai keberadaan seperti blog popular lainnya.

Tidak sedikit juga yang merasa kecewa ketika mendaftar pertama kali pada layanan gratis web statistik Extremetracking. Baru masuk ke halaman join saja sudah dihidangkan informasi "Unfortunately we closed down our sales in Indonesia". Yah..sudah jelas IP yang terdeteksi dari indonesia sudah tidak diterima lagi, namun untuk pengguna lama yang sudah mendaftar terlebih dahulu sepertinya tidak ada masalah dan tetap bisa menggunakannya. "Khan bisa daftar pake proxy luar om?" ya bisa saja, tapi jangan pernah berpikir untuk mengakalinya, menurut sepengetahuan saya tetap saja gak ngefek, Extremetracking bukan layanan kacang goreng dan tentu saja mereka lebih pintar untuk melacaknya.



Untuk mengobati kekecewaan anda, mending lupakan saja layanan Extremetracking. Saya sarankan untuk mencoba layanan gratis web statistik dari Sayyac Beta.



Anda mungkin berpikir kenapa harus repot memakai Sayyac? kan masih banyak layanan populer lainnya seperti Sitemeter misalkan? Sayyac versi beta ini bisa saja dikatakan sebagai kloningnya Extremetracking, mungkin serupa tapi tak sama. Apa yang ditampillan Sayyac hampir tidak jauh berbeda dengan user interface Extremetracking mulai dari Summary, Unique Visitors, Include Exclude Reloads, Geo Tracking, System Tracking sampai ke Referrer Tracking dan semua benar2 sama. malah saya berpikir mungkin saja pembuatnya juga orang yang sama :))

Memang ada juga yang terlihat berbeda itupun hanya pada gambar Icon, menu installasi kode dan pada menu pendaftaran. Sayyac memiliki dua pilihan bahasa english dan turkish sayang belum support indonesia ya hehehe. Kelebihan lainnya, Sayyac memiliki fasilitas web counter untuk menampilan jumlah pengunjung dan ini belum dimiliki oleh extremetracking. Anda juga dapat menampilkan statistik dengan mode private yang berarti hanya anda saja yang dapat melihatnya, namun syarat utamanya anda harus memasang banner yang berbeda dari pada banner standar. Menurut saya ini tidak masalah dari pada anda harus mengeluarkan sedikit dana paypal hanya untuk menampilkan standar button pilihan private versi berbayar dengan harga $10/bulan :)

Anda ingin mengetaui page ranking atau posisi keyword anda pada search engine Google?
Tool dibawah ini merupakan tool sederhana yang dapat anda gunakan. Cara menggunakannya anda tinggal memasukan alamat blog/web anda serta masukan keyword anda.

Contoh penggunaan : (tanpa http://www)
Domain: bebasdownload-gratis.blogspot.com
keyword: Djenggot
Selamat mencoba :)

"Tahukah anda dibalik kekuatan ODP (dmoz) sebagai pondasi trafik blog anda dan jangan pernah salahkan saya jika blog anda menjadi the king pada Directory Search Engine"

Sekilas Tentang ODP (Dmoz). (ODP) Open Directory Project atau biasa di sebut (www.dmoz.com) merupakan directory search engine terbesar untuk saat ini, hampir kurang lebih 37.000 sukarelawan yang menjalankan tugasnya sebagai editor pada directory tersebut (Sumber : Buku "Top 10 On Google" - Rahmat Putra - Penerbit : Dian Rahmat). Dmoz termasuk yang penomenal dalam Directory search engine karena hampir semua search engine terkenal mengacu pada directory Dmoz. Beberapa Search Engine yang mengacu pada Dmoz diantaranya: Google, Alexa, Yahoo, AOL, Lycos, Teoma, AskJeevess Netscape, Hotbot dan beberapa Search engine yang lain. Yang jelas bayangkan saja jika situs atau blog anda ter-index pada directory tersebut, berbanggalah jika blog anda salah satu yang dipilih dan pantas masuk kategory mereka, karena blog atau situs yang pantas masuk merupakan dari suatu proses penyaringan yang sangat ketat. Tidak jarang blog/situs yang mendaftar di tolak bahkan tanpa konfirmasi sama sekali.

Apakah mendaftar ke ODP trafik pengunjung akan meningkat?

Untuk dikatakan meningkat secara drastis jawabannya masih terlalu abstak, tetapi pada kenyataannya blog atau situs yang telah terindex pada Dmoz trafiknya akan sangat meningkat hal ini disebabkan karena site/blog anda akan muncul hampir pada setiap direktori search engine terkenal, tentunya sesuai dengan katakunci yang di cari yang berkenaan dengan deskripsi dan title blog anda. Menurut dari beberapa pengamatan, blog/situs yang terdaftar pada ODP memiliki peringkat yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan yang tidak terdaftar. Sangat menguntungkan bukan!

Berapa lama Situs/Blog akan ter-index di ODP?
Saya pun tidak mengetahui pasti berapa lama situs atau blog kita terdaftar ke ODP, yang harus dipahami adalah editor ODP ini menggunakan jasa manusia bukan mesin seperti spider-nya Google. Dari pengalaman saya mendaftar ke Dmoz, blog saya baru di index selama 2 minggu setelah pendaftaran bahkan mungkin saja waktunya lebih lama lagi tergantung mood sang editor kali ya :). Teruslah berjuang dan jangan putus asa jika blog anda masih belum di index, mungkin saja masih dalam tahap proses, tapi jika dalam waktu 3 minggu tidak terdaftar juga, Dmoz membolehkan kita mencoba mendaftar kembali ke direktory mereka dan anda masih bisa memilih kategory yang lain sesuai dengan tema blog/site anda.

Beberapa hal penting sebelum melakukan pendaftaran.
Pada Title :
- Pilih Title sesuai dengan titile sebenarnya
- Jangan menggunakan huruf ALL CAPITAL.
- Buangkan bahasa pengiklanan dari tajuk.

Pada Deskripsi :
- Jangan gunakan tag HTML.
- Hindari bahasa pengiklanan. Perkataan dan frasa seperti "cool" dan "best darn site" akan dihapus.
- Jangan menggunakan ALLCAPS di dalam huraian anda.
- Elakkan membesarkan huruf pertama dalam setiap perkataan dalam ayat.
- Jangan mengulangi tajuk laman anda di dalam huraiannya.
- Semak ejaan anda.

Baca Baik-Baik Peraturan dari Dmoz :
- Silahkan memohon sekali sahaja, tambahan URL ke Open Directori. Jika halaman itu tidak disenaraikan dalam masa tiga minggu, anda boleh memohonnya semula.
- Menyamar pemohonan untuk menambah URL yang sama lebih dari sekali, juga tidak dibenarkan.
Contoh: http://Dmoz.org dan http://Dmoz.org/index.html
- Jangan memohon halaman cermin. Halaman cermin mempunyai kandungan yang sama tapi mempunyai URL berlainan.
- Elakkan memohon halaman yang mempunyai URL yang bertukar ke URL lain.
- Silahkan memohon tambahan URL ke kategori yang paling berkenaan. Halaman yang ditambah ke kategori yang tidak berkenaan akan dihapuskan.
- Silahkan tunggu sehingga halaman anda siap sebelum memohon tambahan URL anda. halaman yang belum siap, mempunyai notis "Under Construction", atau mempunyai grafik patah dan link patah bukannya calon baik untuk direktori ini.
- Halaman dengan kandungan haram dan pornografi adalah tidak dibenarkan di dalam Open Directory. Contoh kandungan haram termasuk, tetapi tidak terhad kepada, pornografi kanak-kanak dan laman menyalahi hakcipta.

Catatan : Semua peraturan diatas merupakan informasi resmi dari situs Dmoz, yang jelas tidak ada penambahan dan pengurangan dari informasi tersebut

Tips Penting dari Djenggot:
- Pilih kategory yang tepat jangan sampe salah, setidaknya pilih yang paling mendekati sesuai dengan tema blog/site anda.
- Jangan mendaftar lebih dari satu kali, jika gagal tunggu selama 3 minggu lalu daftarkan kembali blog atau situs anda.
- Pada "Title" sebaiknya samakan saja sesuai title blog anda, jangan membohongi Editor Dmoz, ingat! editor Dmoz manusia bukan mesin.
- Pada "Site Description" ini sangat penting dan berpengaruh pada hasil pencarian, gunakan deskripsi sebagai kata kunci, karena menurut pengalaman saya beberapa search engine seperti google melakukan pencarian sesuai dengan deskripsi blog yang anda masukan (Kesalahan dari blog saya adalah ketidak telitian saya ketika memasukan deskripsi dengan benar)
- Jika blog atau situs anda tentang Fornografi, kekerasan, virus sebaiknya lupakanlah Dmoz!
- Jika Gagal mendaftar padahal anda telah mengikuti intruksi dengan benar? Pertama coba anda daftarkan sekali lagi, apa salahnya mencoba dan berusaha. Kedua : Jika anda mendapatkan konfirmasi dari editor berupa kesalahan yang disampaikan, coba kontak kembali editor tersebut. sebaiknya dalam menyampaikan pesan gunakan kata yang halus, tegas dan jangan bertele-tele apalagi kasar. Ketiga: coba daftarkan kembali pada kategori yang berbeda, mungkin saja editor juga berbeda. Keempat: Berdo'a lah mungkin ini cara terbaik hehehehe becanda :)

Ada kalanya dalam meningkatkan page ranking seorang blogger melakukan jalan pintas dengan membeli links dari pageranking yang tinggi, hal ini dipercara dapat meningkatkan nilai pageranking serta meningkatkan trafik.

Apa dengan membeli link PR tinggi trafik kita akan meningkat?
Menurut dari beberapa pengalaman praktik ini memang bener, tapi perlu digaris bawahi bahwa google telah memberi peringatan jika google menemukan atau mengetahui jual beli link ini maka link yang dibeli tersebut akan kehilangan nilai, malah mungkin akan di ban dari SE google. Jadi sia-sia saja khan. saya menyarankan lebih baik jangan menggunakan cara instan tersebut. karna dengan bertukar link dengan PR yang tinggi aja saja sudah cukup :)

Bingung menentukan keyword yang paling dominan sesuai deskripsi halaman blog anda? kalo iya, saya sarankan mencoba aplikasi otomatis membuat keyword dengan bantuan www.keywordle.com. Cara menggunakan aplikasi ini juga tidak sulit, kita tinggal memasukan saja alamat URL tujuan dan biarkan keywordle sendiri yang menganalisa keyword yang sekiranya paling sesuai. Jika kurang sreg dengan hasil keyword yang diberikan, kita bisa menyortirnya sendiri kok, dan menentukan keyword mana saja yang sekiranya pantas digunakan. Selain itu aja juga fasilitas Show meta-tag code yang isinya berupa kompilasi listing dari meta-tag keyword yang siap rekan copy-paste dihalaman blog masing2 tentunya :).

Sudah dicoba belum? tolong jangan protes untuk hasil akhir keakuratannya ya, yang jelas aplikasi ini sepertinya khusus buat yang malas aja kali, masa menentukan keyword sendiri aja bingung hehehe
