Lately i have been looking into a lot of free traffic methods, i discovered something that Google doesn’t like. You might have seen those services offering automated social bookmarking for backlinks? Well they don’t work terribly well. I like to have control over where things are posted so my sites don’t get posted to irrelevant sites therefore hurting my rankings.

Observe this screen shot of a site i have been tracking using the awesome Market Samurai.

Have a guess when i started using this automated service? Indeed.

Now do not fear. As this service is not available to the public i have been beta testing it. I will be sure to let them know about some of the problems i have encountered with it so they can fix them before they go public.

This all comes down to consistency and relevancy. Google loves relevancy, in fact i would actually call it a relevance engine not really a search engine. So make sure that you know where your pages are getting bookmarked, target your keywords and make sure they are relevant!

when you do that this happens.

Here is a list of search commands you’ll find helpful when looking for certain things like .edu blogs/forums and website submission direcotries etc.

To find a .edu blog, type in this:
site:.edu inurl:blog

To Find a .edu forum, type in this:
site:.edu inurl:forum

To find a .gov blog, type in this:
site:.gove inurl:blog

To find a .gov forum, type in this:
site:.gov inurl:forum

site:.gov inurl:blog “post a comment”

intitle:add+url “keyword phrase”
intitle:submit+site “keyword phrase”
intitle:submit+url “keyword phrase”
intitle:add+site “keyword phrase”
intitle:add+your+site “keyword phrase”
intitle:directory “keyword phrase”
intitle:list “keyword phrase”
intitle:sites “keyword phrase”

Remeber this post?

Well after the first day i was number 2, then as expected dropped down to the 3rd page.

Now look! (Click for biggery)

Wonder how long this will last.

Will see where i end up after the initial google honeymoon.

Seriously i get some crazy traffic from this search term. On two of my blogs, this one and my personal blog. But whenever i search on that term, of course i get nothing. I’m beginning to think maybe this is just StatPress resolving some whack keywords as it does come up with some doozies. Anyway, i thought i’d create a post with it just to see if i can actually rank! hah! At the moment there are about 18,500,000 results for computers internet blog so let’s see.

I use Google Trends all the time. If you have a good idea and would like to see if that idea might be one that is going to be a very good idea indeed, then Google Trends can show you how.

Let me show you an example.

Here as you can see i searched for ‘iphone’. And as you would expect the trend for this keyword or topic is rapidly growing.  So you would think that if you were to start some kind of blog or affiliate site, very early on in the products life, then you can see that you would be at an advantage by starting early.

Let me know you one more example.

Here i searched for ‘swimsuit’. This has a seasonal trend as you can see. People seem to search for this keyword during the first quarter of the year. As you probably are aware, summer in the northern hemisphere is right in the middle of the year, so people are searching for swimsuits just before summer so they are ready to hit the beaches! So you can apply these two research tactics using Google Trends to prepare a campaign that is bound to be a success!
