			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>SEO Copywriting is the skill and art of  developing content that is appealing to search engines but is also  interesting and logical for human readers. You could also say that  you&#8217;re writing and working with focus to give your target market the  content it needs and at the same time helping the search engines find  the content. Never-the-less, if your thoughts are that this is about  just stuffing your content with keywords, then you have misjudged it.  The idea behind SEO copywriting is not to add random keywords to your  content but to build the content around the keywords. This article  discusses a few useful tips that you can use right now that to help with  SEO copywriting.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.robselaney.com/courses/online-income-flood/online-income-flood-review">Online Income Flood</a> </strong>Search engines are smarter than in the past and so  only rank content that humans will find useful. That means you will have  to focus on providing quality content if you hope to be a successful  copywriter. What are people looking for when they use the search engines  to find information? They&#8217;re looking for something that offers them  that quality and gives them a solution to their problems. One of the  main reasons why writers fail to create a SEO centric copy is because  they give more emphasis on the quantity of the content, rather than the  quality. It&#8217;s important to create content that provides the necessary  information but that also utilizes the proper keywords to help the  search engines. Search engines put a lot of importance on content that  gives readers useful information. Great SEO copy provides you with a lot  of benefits. For instance, when your readers find that the content is  highly useful, especially the bloggers, they&#8217;ll link to it. Again, this  would help you increase your search engine rankings because you&#8217;ll be  getting backlinks. Therefore, you now see that creating content that  relates is so effective. Keep in mind  when you&#8217;re writing your content that you need to make it easier for  search engines to index it correctly. Keep your content shown as plain  text and avoid flash or words written on graphics as these don&#8217;t  contribute to your rankings. Search engines won&#8217;t be able to read flash,  which means your webpage wouldn&#8217;t get indexed. This can damage your  ranking results in the search engines. <strong><a href="http://www.robselaney.com/courses/online-income-flood/online-income-flood-bonus">Online Income Flood</a></strong></p>
<p>When you&#8217;re using images within your copy, you  need to realize the importance of adding captions to describe those  images. The captions won&#8217;t be used to help your readers, they&#8217;ll instead  be used by search engines like Google to find out how your images are  being utilized. This is why it&#8217;s important to utilize your keywords in  the captions you use for your images so that the search engines will  rank you higher. In summary, SEO copywriting is a skill that takes time to  develop, so make sure you put in the effort to see great results.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s easy for everyone to get caught up in obsessing about how to optimise your site &amp; build links for <strong>Google</strong>, when trying to market through search. That&#8217;s certainly a wise thing to  do, considering Google totally dominates the search market. But,  there are still other search engines that some people are using, so it is wise to  make sure your site is performing to the best of its ability in those  too!</p>
<p>Obviously the other two engines are <strong>Yahoo</strong> and <strong>Bing</strong> and whilst Yahoo is seemingly declining fast, Bing is actually gaining a market share. Furthermore, if the deal between  Microsoft and Yahoo goes through, Bing search will be talking over Yahoo anyway. With the muscle of Microsoft behind Bing, you can be sure the search engine won&#8217;t be prepared to play second fiddle to Google for long!</p>
<p>However, unlike Google, we don&#8217;t hear much about what Bing wants out of a site for decent rankings, but Rick  DeJarnette of <a href="http://www.bing.com/toolbox/webmasters/" target="_blank">Bing Webmaster Center</a> has shared some dos and  don&#8217;ts of link-building for Bing. Not surprisingly, a lot of his advice for complying with Bing&#8217;s policies, does not differ too much from the advice that Google would  give you. It is however, still always nice to hear what they think, just to clear  up any possible confusion.</p>
<p>Like Google, Bing places great emphasis on  <strong>quality links</strong> to determine its rankings. &#8220;Just don&#8217;t make the mistake of  believing it will result in instant gratification. Successful link building  efforts require a long-term commitment, not an overnight or turnkey solution,&#8221;  says DeJarnette. &#8220;You need to continually invest in link building efforts with  creativity and time.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>What You Should Do</strong>!</p>
<p>DeJarnette shared some tips for getting more quality links. The following are <strong>Bing&#8217;s tips for effective link building</strong> (paraphrased):</p>
<div style="margin-left: 20px; margin-right: 15px;">1. Develop your site as a  business brand and brand it consistently<br />
2. Find relevant industry experts, product reviewers, bloggers, and media folk, and make sure they&#8217;re aware of your site/content<br />
3. Publish concise, informative press  releases online<br />
4. Publish expert articles to online article directories<br />
5. Participate in relevant conversations on blogs/forums, referring back  to your site&#8217;s content when applicable<br />
6. Use social networks to connect  to industry influencers (make sure you have links to your site in your profiles)<br />
7. Create an email newsletter with notifications of new content<br />
8. Launch a blog/forum on your site<br />
9. Participate in relevant  industry associations and especially in their online forums<br />
10. Strive  to become a trusted expert voice for your industry, while promoting your site</div>
<p><strong>What You Should Not Do</strong>!</p>
<p>DeJarnette shared a list of things that  you should avoid in your link building efforts, if it is a good Bing ranking  that you are after. Here is <strong>what Bing says will get your site reviewed  more closely by staff:</strong></p>
<div style="margin-left: 20px; margin-right: 15px;">1. The number of  inbound links suddenly increases by orders of magnitude in a short period of  time<br />
2. Many inbound links coming from irrelevant blog comments and/or  from unrelated sites<br />
3. Using hidden links in your pages<br />
4.  Receiving inbound links from paid link farms, link exchanges, or known &#8220;bad  neighborhoods&#8221; on the Web<br />
5. Linking out to known web spam sites</div>
<p>&#8220;When probable manipulation is detected, a spam rank factor is  applied to a site, depending upon the type and severity of the infraction,&#8221; says  DeJarnette. &#8220;If the spam rating is high, a site can be penalised with a lowered  rank. If the violations are egregious, a site can be temporarily or even  permanently purged from the index.&#8221;</p>
<p>Most of the stuff DeJarnette shared is nothing any experienced search marketer is not  already aware of, but it can be quite helpful when a search engine itself lays out what to do  and not to do, to help webmasters get better rankings.</p>
<p>Why not use one of our link building or <a title="Bing Ranking Boost" href="http://www.ineedhits.com/submission/m-boost.aspx?ID=NDAz" target="_blank">Bing Ranking Boost</a> packages to get guaranteed links for your site.</p>
