Ali Blogging – Internet Marketing Coaching Program

Joe Trueman is having a contest on his blog for Alex Jeffreys students. The challenge is: “To create the best, the funniest, the most useful… the most STICKY content in your posts that you can”. Visit Joes Blog for more info.

It will be interesting to see the blog posts and hopefully it will add new ideas for building more traffic. I am sure we all will get more ideas. I am still unfocused. But today I have anyway checked Squidoo.com/ internet marketing and created two “lenses”. It is totally new for me and thanks for your comments about using Squidoo. It’s new strategy for me. Still I have not visit my fellow Alex Jeffreys students blogs. But I will soon drop by.

Update: check www.wetpaint.com -it is like a cross between Squidoo and Wikipedia. It seems that Wetpaint generate more traffic than Squidoo. I will come back with more information regarding this.

These basic SEO are recommended for the biggest search engines. Below are recommended for the meta tags in the header. (Alex Jeffreys is the main keyword)

1. Title tag:
<title>Alex Jeffreys Coaching Program</title>: Use your main keyword in this phrase and try to find a title that most visitors appeal to.

2. Description tag:
<meta name=”description” content=”Great success in Alex Jeffreys coaching”>: Again use your main keyword in this phrase. Try to write the description as clear as possible and make it sticky. This text will be seen in the search engines results. It is important to write something that attracts the visitors among all other search results.

3. Keywords tag:
<meta name=”keywords” content=”alex jeffreys, jeffreys, jeffreys coaching”>: Write your main keyword first. Separate wit commas for the next ones. Use maximum 5 keywords. All keywords should be related with your main keyword.

Above basic search engine optimization are recommended for the head tag. Then you will write your web page content related with the keywords.

If you have a short text do not use your keyword in the body text to often. I will come back with info about Search Engine Optimization for your content of your web pages.

Additional info for Search Engine Optimization for WordPress Blogs
I have tried the “All In One SEO Pack”, Search Engine Optimization pack, for WordPress. Since I didn´t know how to manually change the meta tags in the WordPress themes files.

Maybe it is not possible to change because it is database driven? But the SEO pack seems to work fine for WordPress 2.7.

When using the SEO pack the results in the html files are two lines for the keywords meta tag. The first one is empty:
<”meta name=”keywords” content=”">.

The other one is generated by the SEO pack:
<”meta name=”keywords” content=”alex jeffreys, etc, etc”>

Update: I dont know what the search engines think about the extra empty meta tag. But it should not be a problem if this has been the case with older versions of WordPress.

Anyway these extra tags are easy to remove. Choose to edit your theme and choose to edit “header.php”. There you should delete the two meta tags for “Description” and “Keywords”.

Time 04:53 in the night and have to wake up soon and go to work in the rain, nice. Dreaming about Alex Jeffreys or is it real?

Wow, what webinar this night, still Alex is flowing with his energy on the web. I dont know what to write, I will come back when mind is in order.

Rewind The Mind: I will with this small note try to reflect what has happend. Date is now 11th January 2009 when this note is made.

Everything was not new in the beginning of Alex Jeffreys coaching. But quite many small details for internet marketing strategies have made good result. I thought I knew a lot of internet marketing. But with only these small details the result have been much better.

With video marketing and relationship marketing the result will explode.
Until today my concentration is on creating more content. Next step is to strategically publish and use the content.

I think most important with Alex Jeffreys coaching is the energy he has. It has a great influence on us students. It automatically push us to action. The difference between winners and loosers is action. Winners takes action. Not needed to make everything right. Fail forward and succeed forward.

Also there is some unconcious effect of Alex Jeffreys coaching program. If you attend to the webinars and make some action (not needed to be massive), important is to not slack – then you grow.

I heard that Alex Jeffreys catched a cold out at sea with the internet marketers. I hope he is doing fine now and can spread his energy tonight. I’m looking forward for the internet marketing webinar and another late night as usual, but without being drunk.

I myself have failed catching a cold this autumn. Strange. Because I have too little sleep and many around are having a cold here in cold and dark Sweden. But just right now the sun is shining . In the 80´s (and little in the 90′s) we always had white snowy winters here in Stockholm. But now only dark and raining.

Good tip to protect yourself against catching a cold is to eat alkaline food, sleep enough and reduce stress and worries. Let your mind only think positive thoughts.

Wow!! what a dashboard for WordPress 2.7!

I upgraded my WordPress blog to version 2.7 today with only one click.

It is easy for me for being happy when I use the WordPress software, because I compare with the CMS software we are using at my office that is very expensive, slow and non user friendly compared with WP. But this CMS software is anyway one of the best!! Ok it has a lot of functionality etc..

But when that CMS system are going to be upgraded it takes maybe 2 weeks (cost a lot), compared with today when I only had to make one click in Fantastico and the WordPress software was upgraded. It may only be a software for blogs but it is powerful. Love you..

..or maybe not.

There are many alternatives for hosting web sites. For hosting your WordPress blog on your own domain you must check that the hosting company got a C-panel with Fantastico that will automaticallly install the WordPress blog on your domain. This is “easy” to do, but it is easy to get lost and forget steps needed to take. I will do a little QuickGuide for this.

Having your blog at WordPress without your own domain is possible. Good thing is you will get WordPress versions automatically updated and being searchable in their database (very good).

One both negative and positive feature is that your blog at WordPress.com is stable but the response time can be little slow. And you may have to buy upgrades for making design changes on your theme and more.

At last, if you have your own domain for your blog it will be more brandable. You should choose your own domain name if you are planning to build a business connected with your blog.

Calm day today until this evening when it was time for sleeping for our children. Our older daughter was screaming in “pain” and at last fall asleep here in my home office. I myself have not been outside the door, have almost caught a cold due to lack of sleep. But many have a cold now. I’m lucky that I only almost have got a cold.

Tonight I’m thinking about the blogs and Alex Jeffreys webinars about marketing online and more. I understand that the WordPress blog is possible to use as a CMS, Content Management System, for business sites. I think it is a very powerful tool use and it is sometimes better to use than “traditional” CMS software.

We have purchased a CMS system for our company’s web. The start up and set up cost for the license is about $30.000 and then there is also a monthly $500 license cost. This CMS system is very extensive, but with the WordPress software you can almost do everything that is possible in the CMS system. Maybe you can get the same functionality or more with all the widgets and plugins that are available for WordPress?

Aahhhh, finally a long 12 hours night with Alex Jeffreys webinar….
….not! It was a night of full speed sleep that lasted for 12 hours. It was good. Now more energy and no dizzyness. Good that Alex and company are out at the sea with no possibility to keep us students up all night (or day).

Today at home we bought our first Christmas tree ever. We have always been to grandparents and relatives before. But this Christmas will be spent at home for the first time. This have been good rest day.
