Total Niche Market Domination Update – search engine optimization

A little earlier this year, I indicated to all my TNMD (Total Niche Market Domination) Students that there would be some additional content updates to the original PDF/Multimedia course released late 2005.

This will be one in a series of updates that will supplement the course.

If you have not taken the course, you can inquire more about the details so you can improve your current search engine optimization situation at your website.

As most brand new websites that need to get established, everyone starts out with a PageRank 0 and many people think they’ve got no chance at getting any link exchanges because of that. I get these remarks all the time… “Why would anyone want to exchange a link with my PR0 site?” NicheBOT, too, had to start out as a PageRank 0 with absolutely zero link partners at first. And it overcame that hurdle.

I think one of the most important things overlooked by most online business owners is giving value to the visitor, and in fact, enlightening other online business owners to want to reciprocate with a link exchange.

In fact, around the time that NicheBOT initiated it’s own reciprocal linking campaign back in June 2004, there was rumor going around that reciprocal link exchanges were losing value and effectiveness. And now that I am here 2 years later, having acquired over 500+ link partners, and created some unstoppable traffic, I can tell you that the cycle of continual myths about link exchanges not working is as regular as me drinking my favorite coffee drink in the morning. And that’s pretty regular. ;o)

So with this in mind, it’s sometimes incredibly difficult for the boostrap entrepreneur to clearly make a decision and stick to it with a solid commitment, yet I decided to go against grain, and the rumors and all the excess hoop-lah about reciprocal linking and used NicheBOT as the test bed.

    This was a tremendous post, and one of the better all-around introductory SEO articles I’ve ever read.

    I have passed along the URL to a friend of mine who is an up-and-coming blogger whose content is terrific but whose site could benefit from some basic SEO best practices.

    Jim you got my attention with this statement in your post above – NicheBOT is now aggressively pursuing more highly competitive terms that bring massive amounts of traffic.

    Nice direction you guys are heading in and I’ll have to keep an eye on your resources page. Many thanks.

    The strategy of using specific keywords on a page is important to the success of your site and to your income level as an online publisher. Starting up in niche affiliate marketing and doing the keyword research isn’t easy, but it will go a long way to helping you achieve your goal of owning your own independent website that attracts visitors and produces a steady income.
