Organic Search Engine Marketing – Much More Than SEO

Search Engine Marketing is the art of establishing a website or network of websites in a highly prominent position in search engines results for the purposes of attracting the stream of people actively seeking information, products and services. Generally speaking, the better your position, the more interested, highly motivated “traffic” you get. More traffic means more business. More business is our bottom line.

Organic Search Engine Marketing differs from common Pay Per Click (PPC) or Cost Per Click (CPC) strategies by focusing on improving standings within natural search results. Industry research shows that 70% of search engine users prefer to click on natural listings, eschewing paid placements and advertisement listings. Organic search marketing produces results that are prolific, robust and remarkable.

Search Engine Optimization is the practice of strategically designing your website so that the topics and terms you are invested in can be easily identified by search engine robots (often referred to as “spiders” due to the nature they scurry through your site’s content and linking structure). Through the use of tags, keywords, page titles, content, links and the like, a well optimized site dramatically increases the likelihood of being found through the search engines on its most relevant terms. Your websites visibility is essential to your online business, and what business can justify the loss of revenue that comes from poor optimization? Simply put, we will lay a rock-solid foundation for building a powerful online presence.

Successful companies know search engine marketing is one of the most powerful tools available to increase reputation, sales, and brand visibility. Every day there are hundreds, if not thousands, of people actively seeking your goods and services – Are they finding you first?

Here’s How To Write Your Actors Resume

Some would argue that an actors resume is even more important than his or her headshot. In this article we will go back over the reasons for creating an acting resume and from there discuss what should and should not go in it and why.

An acting resume is exactly one side of one page, and you will usually want to have it stapled to the back of your head shot. This small amount of space is all you have to represent yourself as a multifaceted potential working actor. So the main thing is to understand what auditioners want from you. Think about the specific show they going to be doing and try to compare it to their previous work. What sorts of actors do they like to use, and who do they usually cast for the role you want? Once you’ve considered what they’re looking for, the only thing to do is to try and give it to them. You’re an actor, so this will come pretty naturally to you.

The main thing to have in mind is that your acting resume should represent the part you want to play more than you as an independent entity. So, you should twist and pull at the facts of your professional life until they fit, as closely as possible, the specific audition. I would never tell you to lie; just take a look at this sample actor’s resume to get a better understanding of what I mean. This is a little bit of an extra investment in terms of time and energy, but it’s not that big an investment. Five or ten minutes for each audition could be the difference between your next big break and your next season of waiting tables.

On-Page Optimization

Title Tags, and Meta Tags, and H1s Oh My!

So exactly what do you want to do with your keywords? Well, for starters, stick them in your “title tag“, “meta tags“, and “header tags” (H1, H2, H3, etc.) Now, if you have absolutely no idea what we just said, fear not. Google is a click away.

Just do a quick search for these terms and/or HTML tutorials and you’ll learn what they are – simple enough. And we suppose this is as good of a place to tell you the disclaimer… You should have some idea how webpages work prior to joining our mastermind program.

We are not saying you need to become HTML-yoda-like… but the basic understandings would help you get the most out of our program.

The key is don’t spam.

Don’t just make every other word on your website your “money keyword”. That’s a quick and sure way to lose rankings on the search engines and never see the light of day.

This spamming the keyword thing may have worked back in the heyday of the search engines, when silly porn sites would rank for ridiculously irrelevant terms like “Walt Disney” by copy and pasting the term “walt disney” over and over again on their pages.

Well, obviously the search engines wised up and are privy to that underhanded strategy… And their response now is capitol punishment. Well, not quite but close enough right.

On-page SEO essentially has to do with how you shape and organize the content and pages of your website. It has to do with the specific words you use, the way you link to and from your pages, how you structure your different pages, etc.

And all of this will be based around the “money keywords” you are trying to rank for. Because like we discussed previously… you wouldn’t want to waste your precious time on silly keywords that won’t increase your bottom line (more traffic, more leads, and more sales), right?

And the better your on-page optimization is, the fewer OFF-page optimization (i.e. getting backlinks) you need to do in order to achieve high rankings for your money keywords.

And the best part is… you have absolute full control over this aspect of SEO – so take full advantage!

It’s Like Writing a New York Times Bestseller…

 

 

Going beyond just having your money keywords spread out through your website, you also want to pay close attention to the organization of your website.

Think of your website like a #1 NY Times Bestseller. What happens when you open a #1 NY Times bestseller and go over to the table of contents? Most likely you are going to see chapters after chapters of tightly-knit and related topics. Collectively they bring about the main topic/subject of the book.

For example, let’s say the #1 NY best seller was on “MLM prospecting“. Well, we’d imagine some of the chapters within the book be about “MLM advertising“, “MLM lead generation“, “traditional prospecting methods“, etc. right?

Your website is really no different.

Your website’s categories and how they are organized should be based on your money keywords. This way, the search engines can instantly recognize your website’s theme and give it high rankings in that specific market.

And once that happens… you’ll get higher ranks for your money keywords AND other relevant keywords you didn’t even intentionally rank for (ahhh, the power of SEO – getting results you weren’t even trying to get!) Your categories themselves will also get ranked. The bottom line is, you will get more traffic and more leads.

After all, don’t #1 NY Times best sellers do better than the other books?

Meet The Hermit Crab

Hermit crabs are great pets for young and old alike. They once were only souvenirs from the beach, but now they can be bought in any pet store. Hermit crabs are wonderful starter pets for kids. They make a great alternative to the more common Guinea pigs or hamsters. Unlike what you might expect if you have never kept hermit crabs, it is possible to play with them. They have distinct personalities of their own.

You should learn good hermit crab care to keep your pet healthy and happy and living a good long life. Here are some hints to get you started.

Before you buy your hermit crab, you need to obtain the necessary equipment and supplies. They will need an aquarium and not those tiny cages you see at the shops by the shore — hermit crabs should have at least a ten-gallon aquarium to move around in. If you are getting more than one crab, you should get a larger aquarium. A pet shop will suggest the best size for the number of crabs you will be keeping. Make sure the aquarium has a tight lid so your crabs don’t escape! Use an appropriate size heater so the tank will maintain the correct temperature.

You will need a substrate for the tank, as well. Three to four inches of sand will be optimal, but you can also use crushed shells or other materials. If you use something other than sand, it is still a good idea to cover a portion of the bottom with sand, so the crabs will have somewhere comfortable to go for molting.

For feeding your hermit crab, you will need to get some commercial hermit crab food. You can also feed small pieces fish occasionally. Also, your crab should have some crushed eggshells or oyster shells to support their calcium levels. It is important to keep their small bones strong and healthy.

1. Water4Gas

“Essentially, what you do is set up a compact container under your hood. You use the energy from your car battery. You mix water and baking soda into the container. The electrical connection is very elementary – no need to use relays or any other complications. The device connects to the 12 Volts of your battery via the ignition switch, to forbid hydrogen production when the engine is off.” – by Migual Medrano, Buzzle.com

“Based upon my research, Water4Gas is not a scam because it gives you exactly what they say they will.There are ideas and suggestions on ways to improve your gas mileage.They provide pictures and part numbers, including where to buy the needed items, to build your own hybrid system and include the instructions on how to install it. On top of all this, if the information they provide doesn’t work for you, you can get your money back.” – by Dianne Robbins, Buzzle.com

2. RunYourCaronWater

“There is no run your car on water myth, but some people still don’t believe that it’s true, because of the reason I’ve explained above. They don’t understand how it works, that’s why they think it’s impossible. So do you want to find out how it actually works? Yes? Then read on. We are going to build a hydrogen generator, which is often called a conversion kit. This is what makes everything work. It connects to the car’s battery and gets electricity from it to convert water into hydrogen and oxygen. Then when mixed with normal gasoline, we finally get HHO gas. It’s very economical type of fuel allows doubling the mileage.” – By Steven Blackman, Buzzle.com

“The run your car on water kit is a step by step guide that shows you how to convert your vehicle to use a combination of water and gasoline. Some people think that they will be able to completely stop using gas in their car, but this is not the case. The system that you will be installing into your automobile simply uses the hydrogen, found in water, as a supplement to the gas your vehicle is already using. Most people have heard of using hydrogen as fuel in cars. In fact, there are hydrogen cars that are being built right now by major manufacturers. They are not very popular, but they do exist.” – By Wesley Boster, Buzzle.com

3. Gas4Free

“Gas4Free is a complete, Do-It-Yourself system that’s affordable and SIMPLE to install, anyone can do it.

Water packs incredible power, boosting performance while cleaning your engine and preventing smog by significantly reducing emissions Join the Tens of thousands of people that are using this technology worldwide, read the testimonials of many happy customers Learn how the government will pay you for using Gas4Free.” – By Amanda Wier, GoArticles

“Hydrogen is the basis of the water 4 gas system. For many years it was thought that separating the hydrogen from the oxygen would take too much energy for it to be useful. The next issue was storing the hydrogen as it is combustible! Several researchers have come up with answers to both of those questions! First, how do you separate the hydrogen and oxygen without all of that energy. Like most things, it was really simple once it was figured out. A low voltage current is run through a soda water solution on a wire electrode. The soda acts as an accelerator for the water molecules, makes them speed up so that they can separate easier. Then the positive current (anode) and negative current (cathode) cause the molecules to separate and the new gas called HHO goes to the top of the electrolyzer for use in the motor. Second, the storage issue. This obstacle was overcome by an on demand system. By that I mean the systems only creates HHO when you need it. It only operates when the car is on and running. Sure there is a small amount stored when you turn off the motor, but it is relatively small and if you really wanted to you could open a check valve and release it. These systems are safe and inexpensive to build” – By Tom Baird, GoArticles.com

So if you want to avoid the next ‘Up Cycle’ of oil (which will happen again_, then products like ‘Water4Gas’ will help you reduce your reliance on normal fuel, save money and reduce pollution at the same time. And best yet, you may also get your money back from the tax department. Nothing better than saving money and getting some hard earned money back!

What is Kung Fu?

Kung fu is loosely translated as “sustained effort or skill.” It is made up of hundreds of unique styles including northern and southern styles and tai chi. Within all the various styles, there are similar traits that run through all of them and brand them as a style of kung fu. Almost every discipline begins with foundational stances and movements which act as a springboard from which a practitioner may develop and learn new styles and form. As training continues and the student progresses, forms become more difficult and push the practitioner to become fluid and dexterous giving them the ability to perform magnificent moves with speed and strength. The casual observer will note that kung fu uniforms typically stray from the usual jacket, pants and belt look, most commonly used with karate uniforms, opting for more exotic looks.

Two Different Kung Fu Styles

Wing Chun kuen kung fu one of a variety of martial arts disciplines, whose origins can be traced back to Southern China, and when compared to other well known martial arts styles, Wing Chun is a relative newcomer. Wing Chun’s origin is commonly thought to be from a female who was a protege to a Buddhist nun. Wing Chun is commonly believed to be a “soft” style, but is in reality blends both hard and soft techniques. To explain the term “hard” we refer to the concept of meeting force with force, and the “softness” of wing Chun comes from the evasive moves it teaches.

The rough translation of Wing Chun kuen is: wing Chun means “beautiful spring time” and kuen means “fist” or “fist fighting style.” However, many people refer to the style simply as “wing chun”, removing the kuen. It is rumored that “wing chun” was developed by observing a battle between a snake and a crane.

Shaolin mok-gar is among one of the original household disciplines of kung fu. Originating in Southern China, mok-gar is well-known for its focus and development of kicking techniques. The practice itself is not restricted to just kicking, and in fact the use of a full range of weapons is also part of the system. This creates a flexibility of attack and defense that typifies the basic concepts of Chinese martial arts. The ability to express yourself completely in the attempt to be victorious in your endeavor. Because the ultimate goal of mok-gar is to prevail, devotees understand that placing restrictions on particular movements and skills could potentially put one at a disadvantage.

Shaolin mok-gar kuen, is believed to have been developed by Mok-Da-Si, a midget who dwelt in a Southern Chinese Shaolin monastery. The discipline was originally called shaolin chuen and was taught to his family. The name is rumored to have been changed sometime around the third generation and was renamed mok-gar to honor its founder.

Reduce your cholesterol

High cholesterol is one of the risk factors for atherosclerosis along with smoking, overweight and having high blood pressure. High cholesterol isn’t the same for everyone.

High cholesterol is defined as a total cholesterol level higher than 5.2 mmol/L which is 200 mg/dL in American units. As you can see, even the doctors can’t agree on how to express the numbers.

There are two types of cholesterol in your blood – good and bad. High cholesterol is often called as a silent disease because there are often no visible symptoms – until something serious happens.

If left untreated high cholesterol can lead to serious complications, sometimes even death. That makes it very important to have your cholesterol checked – properly – by your doctor. It won’t go away on its own. However, before you think about taking medication you may want to consider lifestyle changes – they can be easy to make and can have dramatic results.

LDL is called the bad cholestrol and it has a higher fat-to-protein ratio than HDL – which is usually called the good cholesterol. Cholesterol from LDL is the main source of buildup and blockage in your arteries. So the more LDL cholesterol your blood contains the greater your risk of heart disease.

If you manage to lower your cholesterol levels it can slow, stop, or even reverse the buildup of plaque. It can also reduce your risk of a heart attack. It’s well worth learning all you can about high cholesterol foods.

As with anything medical, you should consult your physician for his advice before you consider making any changes, or taking any medications. General texts like this are not intended as a substitute for competent, professional medical advice.

Prescott Wedding Reception Activities for Kids

Many brides and grooms planning Prescott weddings are happy to include children both as members of the wedding party and as guests.

 

Having children at a wedding, however, poses a myriad of problems. Do you leave the children to their own devices and hope they behave and don’t get in the way? Do you provide a room with childcare so they are “present” but not too much under foot? Perhaps the best solution is a simple mix of both, with a smattering of fun built in.

 

First of all, if children are invited to the wedding, take into consideration the ages of the children. Babies will have to stay with mom and/or dad, for a variety of reasons. So planning to have all the children in another room might not be feasible. But if the children are toddlers up to about age 12, you can provide a separate room for them with childcare and a make a number of activities available to them.

 

If the children will be in a separate room at the reception, you can provide a coloring table, perhaps a TV with an appropriate movie ready to roll, and some board games. That could probably be enough for the duration of the wedding reception. Be aware of a few things: there should be a ratio of at least 1 adult for every 5 children if the children are toddlers, or 1 adult to every 10 children if the kids are older. Don’t expect the kids to take up the activities on their own, but rather tell the childcare provider to get the kids involved in the activities by doing them him or herself.

 

What if the children will be part of the reception festivities? What activities can be geared specifically to children at the reception? There are plenty of things you can do, really. You can certainly plan a coloring table at the back of the reception hall or room. There, you can provide loads of paper, coloring books, markers and crayons. Paints are not recommended, for obvious reasons, and moms will thank you if you remember to supply the kids with washable markers and crayons only.

 

The art table can be more than just coloring, however. Buy a huge bag of pipe cleaners. Kids can amuse themselves for long periods of time, making animals, odd figures and the like. Make sure you have at least 20 or more pipe cleaners for each child, however, as children can go through these quickly. Think about “clean” clay, the new products that don’t stick to anything and don’t leave a trace on furniture. With a few different colors, kids can create a variety of figures, faces or forms.

 

More formal Prescott wedding planning can also be made for the small guests. There are several options if this is the route you want to take. One popular option is to have paid entertainment on hand at the wedding just for the children. This can take place in a separate room or toward the back of the reception room or hall if it’s large and the guest list is big. You can hire a clown or a balloon artist. You can have someone braid the children’s hair and provide temporary tattoos. If there is a separate room available, you can even hire a children’s musician to come and entertain the kids. The options are endless.

 

If no plans are made for the children, but they arrive at the wedding expecting entertainment, you’ll have to make some plans. One option is a “child only” dance, which allows only the children on the dance floor. This is not only cute to watch, and could be entertaining as well, but it will bring a smile to the face of every grandma and grandpa present.
