Would like to help your website get found. Have added a new section to
the newsletter to feature your websites. If you would like your website
featured, let me know. This newsletter gets posted online in a couple
of places. By featuring your website, you get a couple of one-way links
back to your website that should help your search rankings.
Since this summer, I have been moving my websites and my customers
to DotNetNuke and I am more and more pleased with this product. We
recently implemented the forum module for a customer and it is great.
Have added a forum to the www.InternetHandholding.com website so you
can see how the module works. Feel free to post anything you like there.
When you post, always include a link back to your website to help your
search engine rankings.
You can see a couple of DotNetNuke websites I stumbled across here.
www.fortsmithmoms.com - Fort Smith Moms club
www.ocso.com - Orange County Sheriff's Office
If you need a website or want to switch to DotNetNuke, let me know.
Be Happy, Healthy and Prosperous,
Andrew

1. Article: Write, Write, Write
There is no accounting for taste when it comes to Google.
When I was in high school and college, I avoided every class
that required my writing papers. Maybe it was only my aversion
to homework, because somewhere along the way I became a writer.
I found myself writing journals at home and procedure documents
at work, which has turned out to be a useful Internet skill.
Nobody bothered to read what I wrote, but that does not matter
to Google. Google is only interested in quantity of keywords.
Google will read everything you write, index every keyword and
possibly show a link to your page to applicable searches.
If you want to get found, write a lot of keywords.
-----------------------------------------------------------
2. Article: DotNetNuke Tip - Use the Articles Module and Categories
The articles module in DotNetNuke is convenient for publishing
your writings on your website.
You can go into the Administrator Options and set up categories,
which should help with keywords for searches.
As frequently as you are able, write something. Use keywords in
the title, because the articles module is SEO friendly and will
use the keywords in the page url, which helps your page get found.
Write something useful for your audience. Share your expertise.
You can add value for your existing customers and maybe someone
new will come across your writings.

3. Article: Massive Link Building to Grow Traffic
If you want to get more visitors to your website, your should
plan on link building. Ten or twenty links is not enough. You
should expect to get hundreds of incoming links.
First go to the Google keyword tool here.
https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordTool
Find a list of keywords that you want to target.
Use the Exact Match criteria.
It is best if the keywords are in your domain name.
You then need to create your page content around the keywords.
When you create links, include the keywords in your incoming
linking text.
You can read a little about getting incoming links through Social Bookmarking
and directories on this page.
www.internethandholding.com/Members/LinkBuildingandBookmarking.aspx
If you are a member in www.InternetHandholding.com you can
find there a list of many bookmarking websites and directories.
The more places you place links back to your website the better.
For starters, submit your website to these directories:
www.bing.com
www.dmoz.com
www.google.com
www.yahoo.com
Sign up for accounts and post bookmarks to your website at some of these:
www.delicious.com
www.digg.com
www.faves.com
www.stumbleupon.com
Exchange links with other websites that have a similar audience.
Below are two sample emails.
You can see, one of the nice things about having keywords in
the domain name is those keywords are automatically included
in the link.
--------------------------------
Sample 1 - Wait for them to reply before adding their link
