SEO, Affiliate Marketing and Domain Names http://villapando.org/blog Sat, 12 May 2012 19:13:47 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Fast Paced Business & Penguin Updates http://villapando.org/blog/2012/05/fast-paced-business-penguin-updates/ http://villapando.org/blog/2012/05/fast-paced-business-penguin-updates/#comments Sat, 12 May 2012 19:10:09 +0000 jayl http://villapando.org/blog/?p=383 There has been quite a buzz from the online marketing (spamming?) community regarding the latest google update – Google Penguin Update. After the massive hit of sites from the previous algorithm update, Panda, many users ranted about their sites being hit SEVERELY by the latter’s change. It has been a nice ride, get over it or just quit.

This is a fast paced business, one day your earning 4 figures per month, then zero the next. This is a test on how resilient and patient a marketer should be.

So if you really can’t ride off the latest update, or your just plain lazy doing SEO with your network again from scratch, try affiliate marketing using paid ads.

So start researching, testing and hopefully, you’ll have a ballin’ niche campaign soon.

There were a lot of things that happened and my time for my online ventures has been lessened… But that doesn’t mean that earnings were put to a stop. You see, passive earnings are just sweet. Even though your sites doesn’t get that much updates, earnings are still and continuous.

Like everyone else, I was struck by the last update. I hated the panda update when it first hit my sites, but it actually made me realize that change is inevitable, more often in cyberspace. So if you are trying to do online marketing.. expect that there will be a lot of changes and the persistent marketers will survive.

So forget the “event”.. think process. The more you work and try what works, the more likely you will succeed. Heed my words: Those who are persistent survives.

Cheers

One of the most favorite things that I want to observe is the sponsors’ section on the last page of the newsletter. I like reading how local businesses would post their services and/or products, not to mention getting ideas on different styles on how they advertise.
advertise-image

One advertisement that I noticed is a 1/2 of a 1/8th spot that I think is very effective… You might ask how did I come up with that conclusion? Read first the advertisement and see the last part of this entry to know why.

WHY IS IT
A man wakes up after sleeping
under an ADVERTISED blanket
on an ADVERTISED mattress
and pulls off ADVERTISED pajamas
bathes in an ADVERTISED shower
shaves with an ADVERTISED razor
burshes his teeth
with ADVERTISED toothpaste
washes with ADVERTISED soap
puts on ADVERTISED clothes
drinks a cup
of ADVERTISED coffee
drives to work
in an ADVERTISED car
and then…
refuses to ADVERTISED
believing it doesn’t pay.
Later if business is poor
he ADVERTISES it for sale.
WHY IS IT?

Cool is it not?!   Why I think it is effective?  I see a lot of advertisers to the point that they have to spread it to the last few pages of the newsletter.

I know this is a personal blog and there are few other sites that I manage but for some reasons, this blog got a page rank of 1 from the last update. There has been no activity within the blog, link requests, blog posts and even link build never occurred to this blog.

It is quite obvious that sometimes this happens randomly and good thing, this blog got some juice from other sites. Anyhow, this is just an update and hoping I would have time to blog some of my personal experiences.

I have read an article about this trough SEJ or search Engin Journal. Read on.  http://bit.ly/cye4cD

Experiments – I have been doing some experiments with pay per click advertising.  I have launched a few campaigns that made it to the green, some stayed on the line and some just ain’t there yet.   Nothing much to report, that is why, I slacked in writing/updating this blog.

Undo Theme – If you have noticed, this was my last theme before using the AzSands theme.  I have decided that I will stick to this theme for the reason that IT is plain dang SIMPLE.  I love simplicity that is why I revert it back to my original-favorite theme :)

Personal Website – Since my domain name is MY surname. This will serve as my personal website but still with touch of SEO, Affiliate Marketing and Domain names.  Not much to talk about S.A.D. but then again, I might hit AGAIN a gold mine and I won’t hesitate to put results on my experiments here.

More Experiments - I have a goal of $4000 this month of December, and I have been working my arse off this season.  I will be conducting another set of experiments and hopefully provide a report here on my blog.

Boring life updates – If you’re still interested in reading entries on this blog (Hi DAD!) and with no luck you didn’t find any, you can follow me on twitter.  I am posting once in a while my life’s update there.  Here is the link – jayl on twitter. Please mention my name @jayl so that I would know and will follow you back.

Sooooo, I should be working now, until my next update.  I just hope the next time – I will provide you with some meaty stuff for you to succumb. :)

cheers.

sad-person

Expectations on another note will also be a part of your life.  You would expect some things and most of the time, it is always an expectation that would be in favor for you.  This is also not healthy, based on my experience.  For every expectations that is turned down, there is a consequence of being frustrated.  Now, are you getting my drift?

It seems that expecting something would be really anticipating with the results based on actions, but expecting BIG can really turn a positive thinking and attitude to a sinking boat overnight.  The moral lesson here is always be prepared for the unexpected.  As easy as it may sound, this is very difficult to handle.  In life there are always two sides – Failure and success, and you should really try anticipating both and really also EXPECTING that the opposite MIGHT actually happen.

To summarize my rant here:

moderate Expectations (OK)

Big Expectations  > can lead to frustrations > can lead to depression

It is not bad to aim high, but to expect a positive outcome always is not really healthy for business.. and in life.
