Today Facebook released a minor change to the way they do things. Well at first glance it seems minor but when you look closer it is HUGE!

At first glance, they have changed the way people join Fan Pages. Before, you would click a button that says “become a fan” and now it is changed to “like”. They say it is lighter and consistent with the language they use elsewhere on Facebook. That’s true.

Dr EvilBut when you look closer, this is just the beginning of something huge, something that will change the way we use social media….something that moves Facebook one step closer to World Domination (Cue Austin Powers sinister Dr Evil music).

Okay so that may seem pretty dramatic but it is pretty exciting. Let me give you an outline of what they are doing, what I think it means and some useful links for you to learn more.

I’ll also share why some people see this as an evil plot and why (at the moment) I think it is pretty cool. Read more

Dominate the first page of Google – overview of the strategy

Why would you want to be on the first page of Google anyway? Google is the most popular search engine people use when they are looking for information (or products) on the Internet. If you can get on the first page of Google, you are pretty well guarantted to be high on the other search engines as well.

If you can be in the first 10 listings (out of often millions) for term people are searching for, then you are much more likely to get people clicking on the link to your site that is listed in Google. That means heaps of potential customers to your site – for free.

Cheryline Lawson has perfected a method to get your site listed on the first page of Google very fast, and multiple times. She uses techniques that many marketers are using separately and found the perfect way to combine them to really leverage the results. It’s the classic – “the sum of the parts is greater than the whole”, or however that saying goes :)

Here are the main components and over the next few days I’ll share details on each. Cheryline goes into heaps of detail in her book which is incredibly good value.

Press Releases

Press releases are written differently to articles. They should be used to promote something new. It may be the launch of a product, launch of your blog, an event that is happening online or offline or a comment on something topical. Cheryline shared details on how many words to include, how to use keywords and where to submit your release. I’ll share details this week and Gold members can download the recording in a few hours as well.

Social Bookmarking

If you have a look at this blog you will see there is a line of images called social bookmarks at the bottom of each post. These are web sites that people sign up for and list topics they would like to receive the most recent info on. You can submit your new press release to these book marking sites so people who want info on your topic will be notified. Even better, Google loves these sites as they rank highly (greater than 5 out of 10) for Google Page Rank. A site with a page rank of 10 gets the most visitors, a site with a page rank of 0, hardly gets noticed.

Blogs

Google loves blogs. You don’t paste your press release to your blog. You use different content and write short articles on specific topics in your niche. Cheryline finds writing reviews of products you are promoting as an affiliate works better than a general article. Creating blogs is also a great way to test the popularity of topics as you canbcreate ablog on each topic and measure the success without committing to a whole website and intensive blog.

RSS aggregators

An RSS feed basically means that the content you have written on your blog gets sent out to the search engnes immediately, and in a no-frills package which they love. Aggregators basically collect RSS feeds on specific topics and make it easy for people (and search engines) to get the info quickly. You can submit your blog to heaps of different aggregators just once, and then they will  be updated everytime you update your blog. An example is Feedburner . Cheryline has included a long lists of the best aggregators which you can gradually submit your blog details to.

The main basis of this model is to write content (as Press releases or articles) and then subit them to web sites that have a very high page rank. This means you will have high ranking sites linking back to you. These sites are the press release directories, the social book marking sites and the RSS aggregators. Simple but powerful when they are all combined.

Well, I say simple, but the important part to master is how to write the content in a way that search engines like and whwre and how to submity this content to the highest ranking sites so you can get links back to you. This is where Cheryline’s book comes into. She has done an incredible amount of research and documented it all. I’d hate to think how long it would take me to trial and test all this myself. Much faster to follow her steps in her book and get the results without the hard slog of researching. Thanks Cheryline!

Watch out this week as I share even more info. Gold members of Wonderful Web Women I really recommend you listen to the recording with a pen and paper – you’ll take heaps of notes.

Cheers

If you were on the call today with Cheryline Lawson I hope you took heaps of notes! Cheryline shared with us the method she has tested and perfected to get web sites ranked on the first page of Google in a matter of hours. But not just one place. She has shown how to get your site listed on the first page multiple times and how to stay there.

We covered a lot of advanced stuff so I will give an overview of her method today and over the rest of the week I will share with you more details on each step here on the blog. Actually spreading your blog content over many days, instead of all at once is one of the techniques Cheryline shares.

Cheryline’s book and her generous bonuses are excellent value and I do recommend you get them. Cheryline is very much a detail person and her book takes you step by step through the techniques she uses, with an incredible amount of links to the sites she recommends and detailed proof on how it works.  I have read through the book and am so impressed with the level of detail.

I suggest when you get it, you print it out, use a high-lighter and write yourself a to-do list as you go. Then break that to-do list up into bite size pieces because as Cheryline stressed, you don’t have to do it all at once. Work through the steps gradually and each step will get you results.

So here goes folks, Cheryline’s detailed method to dominating the front page of Google…..see this next post.

Cheers

I have had so many members email me to tell me how much they learned from Pat Marcello last week about blogging for search engines. She gave great content which is just a fraction of the content she delivers through her blogging for boomers program. If you are keen to learn how to use blogging to increase you profit, such such an experienced blogging consultant, then check out the very generous offer she has made you.

I’ve already implemented a few of Pat’s suggestions. I just checked how one of my blog posts was ranking on Google for the keywords “seo, blogging, Pat Marcello” and am ranked 9th out of 16,500. How good is that!Interestingly, one of our members, The Admin Bandit, ranked 6th after doing a critique of one of the posts I did on Pat’s interview. So we both won. She ranked high and I benefited as the post she linked to was one that had even more competitive keywords so was hard to rank. So there’s another lesson I learnt! Thanks Pat.
