I Frame Websites that are Search Engine Optimized

What is an IFrame website?

IFrame is a website development process mastered by Find Net Solutions . It is a relativity simple matter when you know how! to Search Engine Optimize a second, third or fourth domain name using the one website.

I Framing is much more effective than just parking, pointing or forwarding a domain name, however it does take longer to do and does require some web hosting space.

With out giving all the secrets way an IFrame is a website frame, framing an existing website and using another domain name, title, description and page content, privacy policy, terms and conditions and a site map.

To the average person it looks like the real website, but to search engines it looks like a completely different (depending on description and content text) professional website with a site map, privacy policy and terms. The search engine can index the I Frame website and list key words and key phrases from the title, description and content. So it is like duplicating the site and tweak the keywords description and content to suite.

I Frame Example

This is an example of a website recently completed by Find Net Solutions and a second domain name that is an I Frame.

www.HopeIslandOnline.com promotes Hope Island and the Sanctuary Cove regions of the Queensland Gold Coast of Australia. Hope Island Online Coming Events, Local Business Directory, Community News and Views and the Northern Gold Coasts Celebrity Chef’s Favorite Dish. All this has been mirrored with an I Frame.

www.HopeIslandOnline.info also promotes Hope Island and the Sanctuary Cove regions of the the Queensland Gold Coast of Australia. Hope Island Online Coming Events, Local Business Directory, Community News and Views and the Northern Gold Coasts Celebrity Chef’s Favourite Dish. All this has been mirrored using an I Frame. The same LOOKING website to humans, as it has a transparent skin or frame. The search engines only sees the text and links, while humans see the layout, images and text content. So it looks like the original website in this case www.HopeIslandOnline.com to the human eye.

Relevance Part A – SEO Search Engine Optimization

In the last SEO Blog,  Part 1 SEO I gave you the stats showing the commercial value between search engine ranking & how by just increasing just one position in a Google search result will drastically increase the traffic to your website.

The little tips that I will share with you over the next few issues collectively can help increase your website traffic & profitability.

As previously discussed relevance is the key to good free search engine ranking (organic listing not PPC – Pay Per Click).

Let’s talk about a few aspects of what search engines consider relevant.

Page views -
If your web site gets very little traffic then it isn’t considered by search engines as being as relevant or an authority compared to another web site that has more traffic. Even though the content may be similar.

Tip – make your web site your home page so that every time you open a new web browser your site gets a visit. To do this go to Tools, Options, Main. This tactic may not carry a lot of weight but every bit counts.

Site Map -

Search engines are placing more importance on the use of site maps. The site map is a page that lists all the pages of a web site & how they are linked. The site map can help people navigating around your web site. The site map also helps search engines to index your web site.

Google sees web sites with a site map as a web site that is probably easier for a visitor to find the relevant information they are searching for, thus site maps can help your search engine ranking.

Page Layout & ease of navigation:
A web site that has a good layout that is structured so that visitors can navigate around it easily can help with Google ranking. Google gives more love ‘Google love’ to web sites where visitors can get the relevant information easily.

The structure of the source code -
This is the code behind the page, that search engines see when they look at a web site (the stuff you don’t see) is very important as the more logical & clear the source code the easier that the search engine can read your web
site content therefore improving its ranking.

In the next article we will discuss a few more web site factors that affect the relevance of your web site.

Here are two handy Image Programs that are Free

With more people using CMS Content Management Systems to self update there website and with the need to utilize the photos off their digital cameras. We regularly get asked how to crop and enhance images, make banner adds and re-size photos & how can you do it effectively with out buying more software.

Well here are two free programs. The first was sent to me by Eric Hamm the creator of Frugal Themes for WoprdPress, it is a free alternative to Photoshop. The second is a free program to re-size eg thumbnail multiple images, great if you have a shopping cart or image gallery, I was introduced to this by one of our switched on web developers Jay Tucker.

Gimp, is a Free alternative to Photoshop

Once you get past the odd name, you’ll find Gimp to be an excellent free tool for editing images for you web design projects or any creative online work.

It’s basically a free alternative to Photoshop and includes many of the advanced tools that Photoshop provide. The biggest gripe I find is that those who are used to Photoshop, find the interface to be different enough that they have to basically re-learn another not-so-simple image editing program. But once you play with it a bit and learn the basics, you’ll find it to be a great addition to your web design tool box.

You can find Gimp HERE and learn how to use it with their excellent Gimp tutorials HERE

What Do You Mean Hosting is not Hosting?

Remember that famous TV advertisement for Castrol Oil, ‘Oils ain’t Oils Sol‘. Were the Mafia Boss demonstrates that the effectiveness of the oil is more important in the long run than the cheap upfront cost that Sol paid for a  budget oil.

Well guys hosting is the same the cheap option is not always the best solution for your business, So Hosting ain’t Hosting Guys.

What prompted me to run this article is that our help desk recently fielded a few questions about effectiveness of hosting, two that stood out were:

1. Why don’t I just host our website on my mates server at his house?
2. Why is some hosting dearer than other hosting, they all look the same?

This is all relevant to how much weight a business places on what can be the businesses most time and cost effective  means of communication and advertising.

Your website hosting is the space on the internet that connects your online presence, your website and emails to the world wide web. The path to the server that your website sits on needs to be a good fast reliable connection. It needs to be like a 4 lane highway not a goat track. Your website needs to be hosted in a professional data centre with an A1 rated data connection for speed of data transfer (like a 4 lane highway). The data center needs to also have full security, climate control, automated back up of data plus the server needs to have a reliable UPS uninterrupted power supply. Now this can not be done in someones spare bedroom.

You need to be found easily.

With search engine robots and spiders crawling around the web finding and listing website content. This is done constantly so the people Googling can get the best search results for their search. Now if your website has a data connection to the web like a goat track how easy would that be for search engines to index your website, as it really should be ranked.

The other point is cost of the service you are getting. Now realistically to have and maintain a professional web server does cost money. You have the constant upgrade of hardware, software, software licenses, technical personnel, customer support, plus the other costs for security, climate control, UPS etc.

Now if the hosting service is dirt cheap what aren’t you getting? Or is it that their are so many hundreds of website sharing the same hardware & software resources.

Now I am not saying go for the dearest hosting service, as the dearest service may have to be dearer because their overheads are much higher, or they are less efficient. So find the common ground between dirt cheap and really expensive. As long as you get effective web hosting & the rule of thumb is small business should expect to pay about $1 a day for quality, reliable hosting and personal customer support

As a business owner we need to ask ourselves a question or two:

• How many extra products or services do I need to sell to cover the few extra dollars a month for good support and great web hosting.
• Can I afford to have the downtime if my websites and emails crash.
• How important is having a website that is easy for search engine to find and rank & how will the increased exposure to clients help my bottom line?

SEO – Search Engine Optimization Basics – Part 1

Let’s start today with the basics of SEO search engine optimization. Then we will follow up with more specifics of SEO and what you can do to improve our Search engine ranking, in the next few issues of Effective Web Solutions for Profit – subscribe here

Here are the stats about traffic in relationship to page order on Google from the world leading authority on Google traffic Market Samurai http://www.marketsamurai.com

The most visited website is the one at the top of the first page of search results it is Ranked No.1
Rank 1 will receive approx 3.5 times more traffic than the website directly below in Position  2
Rank 1 will receive approx 5 times more traffic than Rank 3
Rank 1 will receive approx 7 times more traffic than Rank 4
Rank 1 will receive approx 8.6 times more traffic than Rank 5

Rank 1 will receive approx 14 times more traffic than Rank 10 (last listing on the 1^st page)
As soon as you go to page 2 of the search results, the stats really blow out.

As an example let’s say you are in position No10 and you get 100 visits a week to your website. If you can optimise your website and increase the Search Engine ranking to position No.1 you will have approx 1,400 visitors a week.

Would it be worth knowing the key factors that can help you achieve this?

Great read on…

Your website is like having a shop or an information booth. The idea is to have it so we have good relevant traffic visiting your site & then we can convert that traffic into business. Seriously it is no use having the biggest, most lavish shop if you are stuck in the middle of the desert, with not traffic. So the object is to improve the traffic we get to our website.

That is where Search Engine Optimisation comes in.

Search Engines will rank your website ‘Index’ your website depending on how relevant they think your website is to the search word or search words used by the person doing the Search engine search.  Unless you pay the search engine for that ranking, that is called PPC (Pay Per Click) we will leave PPC for another E-News.

Today and the next few issues we will be talking about organic listings, FREE search engine listings. Were your website will be index exactly as relevant it is in relationship to the hundreds, thousands or millions of other web pages that also have those same search words in their title, description, content or source code etc.

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is the process of optimising and promoting a website over the Internet for good organic rankings in search engines, with means not paying for the ranking, FREE listing.

Factors you need to consider about Relevance, as the Search engines values the following to establish the perceived relevance of your website. And these are not in any particular order and if you don’t understand what they all are that’s OK we will cover that in later issues of this Newsletter:

-         page views

-         Site map

-         page layout

-         ease of navigation

-         page content (the copy)

Trigger a Lightbox Web Form With a Link or Button

Posted by Marc Kline – A Weber

A lightbox is one way you can grab your visitors’ attention – it appears above your web page and shades everything else out.

We (A Weber) offer the lightbox as an option in our Web Form Generator. Once a page loads, the form installed on it appears above it. For some, this is great – a way to really catch the visitor off-guard with an offer to sign up for your email marketing campaign.

This insert and the examples of Lightboxes are from Dave Cane – Find Net Solutions

...  Hotel Club Deals and Rates to Go Deals are examples of websites that use our inexpensive, professional option of I Frame technology. The I Frame website instantly mirrors the Main website, (in this case Hotel Club and Rates to Go) while using the I Frame’s domain name, URL, title, description, keywords and key phrases, ideal for B2B programs , Internet Marketing campaigns and collecting names and email addresses for newsletters and promotions.

The two I Frame websites Hotel Club Deals and Rates to Go Deals also use light

Rates to Go Last Minute Hotel Accommodation

box name capture forms, an option of A Weber email marketing programs. The light box acts like a Pop up and the great news is the lightbox is not effected by Pop Up Blockers. A Weber Lightbox forms can be set on a timer delay to display a pre determined number of seconds after the website displays. You can also determine the frequency the Light Box form will appear to a visitor, every time they visit or once a day etc….

Well, one man’s treasure is another man’s “annoying pop-up”. Some just don’t like them and there’s no convincing. They don’t want something that appears unexpectedly.

Does this describe you? Then I wonder how you might feel about a lightbox that appears only when a visitor does expect it – and asks for it.

An Alternative to the Automatic Pop-Up

When we (A Weber) recently re-did the Web Form Generator, the project’s lead developer, Dan, unsurfaced a neat option. By copying and pasting in some JavaScript above your form, you can set a button or link to trigger the loading of a lightbox, thereby preventing some of the possible pains of pop-ups while preserving a lot of the good stuff.

4 Reasons to NOT Delegate in the New Year

Find Net Solutions received this from our affiliate, Stomper Net and thought we should share it.

This Article is by Melanie Benson Strick, from Stomper Net

The New Year is just around the corner and with it comes all kinds of great advice about what you should be doing to achieve your goals. How about what you should not be doing? As the go-to person in this industry on productivity, profit explosion and business optimization, I’m here to say that some people just SHOULD NOT delegate.

Curious?

Here are four reasons why you should absolutely, positively NOT delegate or outsource to expand your business this year:

1. The idea of making more money is revolting.

Why allow other people to help you get more money making tasks done? That’s just silly! You love staying stuck exactly where you are because you must do everything yourself. I mean come on, money doesn’t grow on trees so why should you wisely invest it in capable, hard-working, efficient associates who help you achieve more in a week than you normally do in a year?

Even if you could see proof that learning how to hire “A” players to manage your social media, update your website, handle your organic SEO strategies would free you up to triple your income, why bother with stuff like that when you’ve got so much to do today, right?

2. Doing tasks that suck the life out of you is the highlight of your day.

When you wake up you are ecstatic knowing that you’ll get to update your bookkeeping records or spend 2 – 3 hours answering routine questions from tire-kickers who never plan to buy. But the highlight of your day – filing! Why, cause it’s an excellent use of your time. Who wouldn’t want to spend countless hours putting papers in folders when they could be putting together a launch strategy that could results in over $100k in revenue?

Then there are your personal favorites…the tasks that make you feel like a Mac truck ran over you. You know the ones ….you feel completely exhausted afterwards. As you dig into these tasks (if you ever get to them) you think how luck you are to be an entrepreneur with all this freedom. Why would you ever want to spend most of your time doing things that make boat-loads of money?

3. Perfection, not progress, is the only route for you.

You are committed to getting things done yourself — correctly. Can you really trust someone else to do things right (I mean really what does Bill Gates know about delegation…he’s the genius in the business.) As you release every product perfectly with great pride, you somehow overlook the consequence of this choice – it takes you 5 – 10 times longer to get things done.

Even though you are frustrated with your slow progress you fear handing things off to someone else. You witness your peers who have discovered the secrets to hiring “A” players soaring to new heights and wonder what must be wrong that you can’t get these same results.

The last option is to buy the content straight-out.  You can get a ghost-writer to produce it and still make a hefty little profit in the process.

Again, no matter what path you take, make sure you’re producing content that people are actually willing to pay for.

4. Sleep and a social life are highly over-rated!

Who needs sleep, right? There is so much to do you can barely get a few winks at night let alone actually meet your friends for a nice evening out. Family? Who are they? Oh those people who walk up and down your hallway waiting for you to come out and have dinner together.

Don’t they understand that you have hundreds of tasks to accomplish in record time and you don’t have anyone to help you out? Not that you couldn’t – you just have your head in the weeds and you haven’t yet seen the brilliance in slowing down, hiring some capable people and multiplying your accomplishments in record time.

All silliness aside, why on earth should an entrepreneur delegate or outsource? Because it’s how you create a business that can grow into six figures and beyond, profitably, without losing your mind!

When you pay attention to the business owners who consistently generate high six and seven figures, you’ll notice the one thing they all have in common is: they don’t do it alone.

The key is not just delegating to the cheapest labor either. What works is learning how to hire people who will take tasks off your plate so you can focus on doing what you do best! And that requires a system of identify the right tasks to hand off, the right people who can do the job, and the right delegation techniques to ensure the tasks are done correctly the first time.

Stay tuned over the next few weeks I’ll be sharing with you some of my insider secrets to exponentially growing your revenue and results through delegation and outsourcing!
