			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span lang="EN-IN">We all know that search engines are very important for the success of a website. Almost 85% of new internet users find good websites by using a reliable search engine like Google.</span><span lang="EN-IN">Search engines like Google fight to index thousands of pages of content found on the internet in the right order depending on several characteristics. </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-IN">Search engine algorithms may vary with time but you can ensure that you have a website that is filled with SEO optimized, original content so that your page ranks as high as possible on the search results. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span lang="EN-IN"><img class="aligncenter" title="How to Optimise Your Internet Marketing Website Content" src="http://www.effendylie.com/blog/images/www1.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="254" /></span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-IN">The following explains best 5 tips about SEO optimizing your web page:</span></p>
<p><strong><span lang="EN-IN">Appropriate landing page<br />
</span></strong><span lang="EN-IN">Apart from finding a great niche and product, it’s also necessary to have a targeted landing page to encourage paying customers. And one great tip I’ve found is that to ensure your <a title="Landing Page Graphics Set" href="http://www.effendylie.com/ListBuildingToolKit" target="_blank">landing page</a> does not sell anything at all! In fact, it should give a valuable resource away for free like a niche e-book, <a title="newsletters" href="http://www.effendylie.com/newsletter.html">newsletters</a>, mini-course and even tele-seminars that will educate the customer about the value of your product. Not only does it raise customer awareness but it also encourages customers to buy what you will eventually show them! </span></p>
<p><span><strong>Fresh content<br />
</strong>Fresh and new content updated daily is one way to ensure that Google keeps returning to your page again and again. Once the search algorithms are trained to realize that the content on your page changes daily and is completely original you are more likely to see your website higher up in page rankings. </span></p>
<p><span><strong>SEO optimizing!<br />
</strong>You also have to ensure that the content is SEO-optimized. This is possible by using Keywords that are recognized by search engines as related to your product. Fill your content with an average of 2% of Keywords per page of 100 words. That means your page should run an average of 10 Keywords in a page of 500 words.  Do not put in more than that as search engines tend to classify high keyword pages as spam or duplicated content. Create a lot of internal links where a single article links to another archived articles in your blog or the site itself. This will increase site recognition and page rankings </span></p>
<p><span><strong>Keeping them simple</strong><br />
Don’t flood your site with complex codes like Flash, Ajax, etc. Of course, the site will look great but this just tends to slow down your site and as a result might prevent search engines from crawling and indexing your website properly.</span></p>
<p><span><strong>Arranging the Keywords can make or break a website!</strong><br />
Start strong by adding your keywords in the first paragraph and the very first line and the first line of the last paragraph. Search engines like this as it makes it easier for them to classify the article, site and content. Try to use lateral semantic indexing where you use the same keywords in the form of plurals or related variations. The more the number of variations you put in, the better the page ranking. </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-weight: normal;" lang="EN-IN">There you have it.. I’d love to hear from you! Don’t forget to leave your comments/feedback in the comments field.</span></strong></p>]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>You’re either remarkable or invisible.</strong><br />
—<em>Seth Godin</em></p>
<p>Master marketer and best-selling author Seth Godin says that companies that resist innovation are like brown cows—after a while, they all look the same. If you’ve seen one brown cow, you’ve seen every<img src='http://www.effendylie.com/blog/images/BeRemarkable.gif' alt='Be Remarkable?' class='alignright' /> brown cow there is to see. You don’t notice them even when they’re standing on the side of the highway. They might as well be invisible.</p>
<p>But when a purple cow comes on the scene, it stands out at once. You can’t take a brown cow and paint it purple, Godin explains. Purple cows are purple from the inside out—or they might be blue from the inside out, as in the case of JetBlue Airlines, a company that meets Godin’s criteria for excellence.</p>
<p>What is Seth Godin trying to teach us about marketing this time? If I’ve learned anything from Godin since his 1999 Permission Marketing, it is that he doesn’t waste his readers’ valuable time. So I’ve learned to listen to what he has to say. What does he have to say in Purple Cow? It all comes down to two words: Be remarkable.</p>
<p>I hope you’re listening, too. “You’re either a Purple Cow or you’re not,” says Godin. “You’re either remarkable or invisible. Make your choice.”</p>
<p><strong>Forget the advertising—innovate</strong><br />
It would be easy to notice a purple cow if we suddenly encountered one, of course. But how do you spot purple cows in the business world? <img src='http://www.effendylie.com/blog/images/purpleCow2.jpg' alt='Purple Cow' class='alignleft' /> To be a purple cow in the business world, Godin explains, “Stop advertising and start innovating.”</p>
<p>Consumers are immune to most of the advertising that reaches them, but they are hungrier than ever for real solutions to real problems. The secret of successful Internet marketing is to create and drive word of mouth.</p>
<p>When fifty-two JetBlue planes were frozen on runways in an ice storm last February, passengers were stuck inside the grounded planes for hours. Other airlines cancelled flights in anticipation of the winter storm, but JetBlue vowed to get customers to their destinations.</p>
<p>When it didn’t work out as planned, the company had a customer service nightmare to deal with. Police were called in as irate passengers argued with JetBlue employees at airport check-in counters.</p>
<p>At the height of this public relations disaster, David Neeleman, founder and CEO of JetBlue Airlines, posted a video message on YouTube to apologize to customers. As far as I know, this was the first time the CEO of a major corporation posted a video message on YouTube directed at customers.</p>
<p>Check it out right here:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-r_PIg7EAUw&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-r_PIg7EAUw&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>As you’ve heard his YouTube message, Neeleman explained that steps were being taken to prevent the same thing from happening again. And he outlined a new customer protection plan with enough substance behind it to show customers that he wasn’t just blowing hot air.</p>
<p>Customers may not have forgotten what happened, but they seem to have forgiven JetBlue. When the situation got out of control, Neeleman didn’t do what other corporate leaders have frequently done. He didn’t call in his staff to manage the crisis. He didn’t hire a public relations expert. He did what Purple Cows do—he innovated. He created an innovative information product. And it worked!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><a title="Choosing a right Web Hosting" href="http://www.effendylie.com/link/hostgator" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter" style="vertical-align: middle;" src="http://www.effendylie.com/blog/images/pc-www.jpg" alt="Choosing a right Web Hosting" width="200" height="153" /></a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">There are both free and paid <a title="web hosting" href="http://www.effendylie.com/link/hostgator">web hosting</a> services on the Internet, so why should you pay for a web hosting when you can get one for free? There are several advantages and disadvantages to consider when choosing between free and fee hosting companies for your web site:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">• With free web sites, domain names are nearly always structured this way: www.hostcompany.com/yoursitename. This makes your URL difficult to remember, and you may lose sales as a result.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">• Free sites have bandwidth restrictions. This means that after a certain amount of people in a given day visit your site, the page will no longer load and potential customers will receive a message such as “This web site has exceeded its bandwidth limit. Please try again tomorrow.” Some free sites provide sufficient bandwidth, especially if your site is light on graphics…but many do not.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">• Some servers are better than others. With a free site, you run the risk of downed servers showing visitors the dreaded “Error 404: Page Not Found” message when they click over to your site. Most paid sites have precautions to deal with server failure.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">• Most free sites use outside advertising on all their pages—this is how they make money. Banner ads are usually acceptable, but if you have a page with three or four popups that spring out at unsuspecting visitors, they’ll be quick to leave and never come back. Find out what type of advertising the hosting company uses before signing up for a free program.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">This is not to say you absolutely should not go with a free site. Particularly when you’re first starting out, a free site may be just what you need, and you can always upgrade to a paid site. For that reason, you should look into a web hosting company that offers either free or paid sites (or just start out with a paid site).</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">Also, Before signing up for any web site service, find out whether they have templates and easy-to-use site building tools—or whether you have to create your pages in HTML code. If you plan to use a program like Dreamweaver or FrontPage to create your site, this won’t matter. But if you’re not, and you don’t know HTML, you need to make sure you will be able to put things on your web pages with relative ease.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">Ensure to shop around and research further until you have found the right one or join the one which is recommended by others.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">I would personally recommend HostGator, as I have been with these guys for quite a while and they haven’t gone wrong. They are both affordable and reliable, unlimited for Disk Storage and Bandwidth with all of their shared plans, 24/7 support, and the uptime I have had on this web hosting is simply amazing! The most important thing of all is that, they guarantee 99.9% uptime. <span> </span>Their “Baby” web hosting plan is $9.95 per month but with our coupon code <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.hostgator.com/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration: none; color: #000000;">HGC25</span></strong></a> or <strong>MUSICA</strong> , all the coupons codes have the same value. You get a <strong>$9.94 discount</strong> regardless of which coupon you use. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><a title="Hostgator Web hosting - $9.94 Discount" href="http://www.effendylie.com/link/hostgator" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter" style="vertical-align: middle;" src="http://www.effendylie.com/blog/images/gator.gif" alt="Hostgator - $9.94 Discount!!!" width="200" height="153" /></a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">Follow this link for <a href="http://www.effendylie.com/link/hostgator" target="_blank"><strong>HostGator.com</strong></a>. Click on  &#8216;order now&#8217; under the desired hosting plan. If you are hosting a new site, register your new domain. If you already have a domain name,  click &#8220;I will use My Existing Domain&#8221;. Input the domain name in the next field and press &#8216;continue&#8217;.  Choose a &#8220;billing cycle&#8221;. Type in the coupon code (I&#8217;ve used &#8216;musica&#8217; when I registered so I know it works.) Press &#8216;calculate totals&#8217;. The total price with the discount should be shown. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">Thanks for reading this blog post and feel free to leave your comment / feedback in the comments field.</span></p>]]></content:encoded>
