SEO Vs. SEM




In my previous video, I explained about SEO.




These Days, Internet Marketing leads any other Marketing approaches. It becomes mandatory to do Internet marketing for selling any kind of products.






The "Internet Marketing" includes various ways of marketing the products. Find below some of them.


  • Email Marketing
  • Social Media promotion
  • Affiliate Marketing
  • Search Engine Marketing (SEM)

In this post we will see about the SEM.

The Word “SEM” gives different meanings based on the context. Generally it represents all kind of activities (including SEO) for bringing traffic from Search Engines such as Google, Yahoo and Bing.

But when talking about SEM with SEO, the word SEM represents only the PPC (paid) advertisements while SEO represents getting natural or organic traffic from the Search Engines.

Search engine marketing, (SEM), is a form of Internet marketing that seeks to promote websites by increasing their visibility in search engine result pages (SERPs) through the use of paid placement, contextual advertising, and paid inclusion.

SEM allows you to advertise on several keywords, delivers instant traffic and can be turn on, off, up or down at anytime. Also, it's easy to run tests on landing pages and new keywords. The downside is that you have to pay for clicks.
SEO is more constant and ongoing and you don't have to pay for every click. But you can only effectively target 3-5 keywords, it takes longer to see results and you can't test new landing pages easily.

You can refer the the below Screenshot of SERP (Search Engine Result Page) to start understanding SEO and SEM.





In 2008, North American advertisers spent US$13.5 billion on search engine marketing. The largest SEM vendors are Google AdWords, Yahoo! Search Marketing and Microsoft adCenter. [Source- WikiPedia]

Note that even if the Google Adword allows you to show your site at top of SERP by paying money, it doesn't mean that you can get top position for any of your websites just by paying money. Because Google Adwords implement complex Quality Score concept which will set the price for the click based on relevancy and quality of your page. i-e If you have high quality site and you run your PPC campaign properly with appropriate keywords, you can bring your site at top by spending less amount of money. And, the spending for PPC to promote SEO friendly site will be less comparing to other sites for getting same number of clicks.

Amazon unveils Android-based Tablet "Fire" with 7-inch Display. Price Starts with $199




Today, the world’s largest online retailer "Amazon" is unveiling a tablet "Fire".

The "Fire" may not have all the same features as an iPad, but will start at a much lower price. It will cost $199, compared to the iPad, which starts at $499.

The device will have a 7-inch display , and will run Google’s Android software, but it won’t have an embedded camera or microphone. Additionally, it will come with Wi-Fi, but not 3G.


The device will come with a 30-day free trial of Amazon Prime, the company’s $79-a-year membership service that includes streaming video and free two-day shipping.





Sales of Amazon’s electronic books, movies and music on the device may help make up for the narrower profit margins that are likely to result from the low price, said Brian Blair, an analyst at Wedge Partners Corp. in New York

Amazon is unveiling "Fire" as competition for Apple iPad even after two major companies (RIM and HP) already tried and failed to compete with Apple iPad.

Do you believe that Amazon can compete with Apple iPad? You can share your thoughts thro' the comments.




And, Amazon announced the Amazon Kindle Touch, a device smaller and lighter than previous Kindles, with an infrared touch system.

Amazon also announced an even smaller, thinner, lighter and cheaper Amazon Kindle, that will retail in the US for only $79. The cheapest Kindle eReader has no keyboard or touchsreen.


Watch below the video of "Fire" Demo.





And, you can watch below the video of Amazon Kindle Press Conference held on September 28, 2011 at New York City.







Recently Samsung has agreed to pay royalties to Microsoft for using Android on Tablets as well as SmartPhone.

So, most probably Microsoft will force Amazon also to pay royalty for using Android. In this case, I am NOT sure whether Amazon will stick with the $199 for long time.

Yahoo is dying.....



While Google is celebrating its 13th Birthday, Yahoo is moving towards its End. Yes, Yahoo is going to die soon.

In July 2009, I had published a Post about Microsoft's plan for buying Yahoo.

Now, Yahoo is in the process of getting migrated to Microsoft. Many Yahoo products are getting deprecated now.

Site Explorer API of Yahoo is also deprecated. We used this Site explorer API in many of our SEO Tools for getting the back link details of any URL.

Since Yahoo deprecated this service, our Tools (Back links Tools, Link Analysis Tool) won't work now. We are working on to find some alternate ways to bring up our Tools again.

I will update it once we brought back our Tools.

Google Celebrates 13th Birthday by showing Google Doodle




Search Giant Google is celebrating its 13th birthday by showing below Doodle in Home page of Google.

The Doodle Shows Birthday Party Scenes with Multi-colored balloons, Birthday Cake and Candles.

In 1996, Standord University students Larry Page and Sergey Brin built a search engine called "BackRub" which determines the importance of webpages using the Links. They formalized their work in 1998 to create "Google".


Founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin named the search engine they built “Google,” a play on the word “googol,” the mathematical term for a 1 followed by 100 zeros. The name reflects the immense volume of information that exists, and the scope of Google’s mission: to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.




Apart from Search, Now Google is doing lot of other businesses also. For example, Google advertisement (AdSense and AdWords), Google Checkout, Google affiliate program, Google Apps, Google Mobile devices and Android OS, Google email "Gmail", Social networking such as Google+ and Orkut, Google Browser "Chrome", Google Video Sharing site "YouTube", Google TV and Google blog site "Blogger" are few of them. You can see the complete list of Google products here.

Google is following their policies strictly. Google believes that Focusing on Users will bring everything else. That's why they are still not allowing money to influence their search results.

"Happy BirthDay Google"

Google improves DMCA Request Take Downs to handle Copyright Infringements.



 Few Years back, I had published a post about handling Plagiarism and I informed about  Plagiarism prevention in Google Knol.

In this post we will see how to prevent Copyright Infringements , especially how Google is working on to prevent any Copyright Infringements.

Few months back, Google had released panda update to its Search Engine to reduce search rank of scrapped contents.

But it seems this update affects the original content author also in some ways. For example, assume that you are publishing  a Tutorial about Wordpress blog today in your website. If your site is NOT having enough backlinks, Google may take few days to crawl and index your post. But, if a scrapping site with strong link building scraps your Wordpress blog Tutorial and publish it in their site, Google bot will start indexing it today itself. So, there will a possibility for your original content to be treated as spam by Google.

So, now preventing copyright infringements becomes very critical. Google is willing to help the authors to prevent  copyright infringement of their original content by allowing them to file DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) complaint easily from web form.

You can start doing it from here.

According to Google Official blog post, Google will take action within 24 hours of receiving DMCA complaint.

Google has launched NFC- Driven Wallet.



Few years back I had published a post about using Cell Phone as Credit Card using near field communication (NFC).

Now Google has made it a reality. Google has released Google Wallet. Google rolls out Google Wallet Android App to all Sprint Nexus S 4G phones through an over-the-air update.

You can watch the below video to know about Google Wallet.



 Google Wallet enables you to pay with your Citi MasterCard credit card and the Google Prepaid Card, which can be funded with any of your existing plastic credit cards. And, google is working on to extend this future to Visa, American Express and Discover cards also.

Google is adding a $10 free bonus to the Google Prepaid Card if you set it up in Google Wallet before the end of the year.

 Google calls this  "Google Wallet " as next big shit after coins, paper money and plastic credit cards.
In the past few thousand years, the way we pay has changed just three times—from coins, to paper money, to plastic cards.
Now we’re on the brink of the next big shift. 
 Google Wallet has been designed for an open commerce ecosystem

How to use Google Wallet?
When you’re ready to checkout, look for the MasterCard PayPass logo to see whether the merchant accepts contactless payments. After the cashier rings up your purchase, tap your phone on the PayPass terminal and your Google Wallet will transmit payment details in a secure, wireless manner. Moments after you tap the terminal, you will receive a payment confirmation.

Powermat Goes to Duracell - Guest Post by Kate Croston



Procter & Gamble's battery unit Duracell and Powermat have announced a joint venture, Duracell Powermat, which will develop and market wireless charging solutions using Powermat technology. The deal gives Powermat a 45% interest in the venture. Proctor & Gamble will retain a controlling 55% of the procedure. Using Powermat's proprietary inductive coupling charging technology, Duracell will co-develop and market wireless charging devices.

"What comes out of this partnership eventually, if we're successful, is people who buy a smartphone or tablet five, six years from now will expect wireless power built into it," said Powermat CEO Ran Poliakine.




Duracell currently markets its own line of wireless chargers under the brand name myGrid, using "an older technology," said Powermat president Daniel Schreiber. "That technology will be retired," he added, doubtlessly the myGrid product line will be retired with it. The contract puts Duracell in charge of all Powermat products for the consumer market. The undertaking will officially launch in early 2012, using Powermat's technology at first, Schrieber said.

IHS iSuppli has estimated that the worldwide market for wireless charging, at around $100 million in 2010, may reach $20 billion by 2015. "Powermat and P&G joining forces makes so much sense," said MarijanaVukicevic, senior principal analyst at iSuppli. "Adoption of wireless power is growing fast, and the marriage of a proven technology like Powermat's with the global marketing muscles of P&G promises to propel consumer adoption faster yet."

Schreiber agreed. "Procter & Gamble has been one of the most successful consumer product companies in the world over the last 30 years," he said. "When they looked at the next 30 years and tried to identify consumer demand, wireless charging was one technology that came out on top. They were the perfect partner to advance Powermat's vision of ubiquitous wireless power to reality."



Ran Poliakine, Powermat CEO, said in a statement: "Alkaline batteries, led by Duracell, really were one of the first wireless power sources to gain worldwide adoption by the consumer. The promise of wireless power is similarly transformational, and there is no partner more capable than Duracell -- and its parent, P&G."

"Several decades ago, Duracell was a pioneer in a new revolutionary product category, alkaline round cell batteries," said StassiAnastassov, Duracell president, in a statement. "In a not-too-distant future, we expect wireless power solutions to eliminate the hassle of multiple cords and chargers, creating a major growth opportunity. Innovation to create new solutions that touch and improve people's lives is what P&G-Duracell are all about. The joint venture between Duracell and Powermat puts us in the driver seat for this disruptive category creation."

A Planet With Two Suns Discovered. Kepler-16b, a Real-life Tatooine



Astronomers from NASA have discovered a planet 200 light years from Earth that apparently orbits two suns like Tatooine which is the name of Luke Skywalker's home world in the science fiction movie "Star Wars"


The Kepler 16b planet has two suns that orbit one another in 35 days. If a person visited Kepler 16b, they would be greeted by a sky that featured two prominent stars -- and circles both stars in 229 days.

It's the first time the Researcher have discovered and viewed a planet with two stars. And, the researchers don't believe that life exists on Kepler 16b

NASA said the planet is cold, gaseous and not thought to harbor life. Astronomers, say the finding is notable since it demonstrates the diversity of planets in our galaxy.

When Tatooine was first shown in Hollywood, there was immediate doubt as to whether or not a similar planet would be found. Now it is proved that everything is possible.

YouTube Founders Plan to Give Delicious a Face Lift - Guest Post


Although Delicious, a popular social bookmarking site, never quite caught on the way that many other “social” utilities on the web did, like Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit, owners of the incredibly popular video sharing site YouTube, recently bought Delicious from Yahoo!, hoping to redesign the service to attract more users.

Delicious, the brainchild of Joshua Schacter, began several years ago in 2003. It initially received $2 million dollars in funding, and became increasingly popular among technophiles who wanted to technology-related links categorized under various topics. In 2005, Yahoo! acquired Delicious. Delicious has quickly become one of the most popular social bookmarking websites, competing with the likes of Digg and Reddit. However, in 2010 it had been rumored after an internal leak that Yahoo! had intended on shutting down Delicious since they had not developed it much further after the acquisition. Later, Yahoo! clarified that it would

This summer, Chad Hurly and Steven Chen, founders of YouTube and owners of AVOS systems, the Internet company that spawned the now-famous video sharing site, acquired Delicious for an unspecified amount of money. The New York Times reported recently that Hurley and Chen are working toward restarting Delicious to be more user-friendly and less of a niche technology site. The Times article noted, describing upcoming changes:

“The current home page of Delicious features a simple cascade of blue links, the most recent pages bookmarked by its users, and it tends to largely be dominated technology news. But the new Delicious aims to be more of a destination, a place where users can go to see the most recent links shared around topical events, like the Texas wildfires or the anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, as well as the gadget reviews and tech tips.”

Another change that Hurley and Chen envision is to give it broader audience that extends beyond its current technology-centered one. Another change was to make the site more personalized, so that the site will recognize your interests and suggest different links or “stacks” of links to you based on previous searches.

The article also noted that Hurley and Chen refuse to suggest that they are trying to compete with the likes of Facebook or Twitter. They explained that Delicious would be in a completely different category of social searching. While Google is good for quick and efficient searches, they said, Delicious is a tool that is more amenable to deep, involved searching on any given topic.

The new Delicious should launch sometime this year.

PayPal Auto Withdrawal problem



Few days back I had mentioned about Auto withrawal of PayPal balance. Since the PayPal removed the 50 Rupees withdrawal fees, I thought there won't be any problem in this Auto Withdrawal.

But yesterday I realized the big issue of this Auto Withdrawal.

Yesterday PayPal has started auto withdrawal of my PayPal balance to my India Bank account.

A Buyer has requested refund once after the Paypal initiated the auto withdrawal. And, PayPal placed a hold for the disputed transaction. And, immediately PayPal cancelled the Auto withdrawal.

Finally my PayPal account is having Negative balance. Ideally it should be 0 instead of negative balance. So, I had done detailed analysis to know the reason.

And, I came to know that the exchange rate difference caused this Negative balance. Even if the PayPal did the auto withdrawal and Cancellation within few minutes gap, there was a huge difference in Exchange rate.

i-e PayPal used lower Exchange rate for converting USD into INR while doing auto withdrawal. And, it used higher Exchange rate for converting INR into USD while cancelling the Auto withdrawal. So, finally I lost significant money because of this Auto withdrawal implementation.
I think PayPal can take necessary steps to prevent such losses. For example, instead of placing the hold immediately after  getting dispute, it can do it only after finalizing the dispute. What do you think about it? You can share your thoughts thro' the comments.

Bank of America plans to reduce expenses by cutting Jobs


Bank of America Corp is looking to reduce annual expenses by $5 billion by 2013 through its cost-cutting initiative, chief executive officer Brian Moynihan said.


And, the bank was targeting 40,000 job cuts over the next three years as part of the cost-cutting program. Bank of America currently has only a little less than 300,000 employees on its rolls


The bank is targeting an expense-to-revenue ratio to 55 per cent and is cutting from roughly $73 billion in annual expenses.

Bank of America is currently embroiled in various legal issues, which are also affecting its profitability. Bank of America shares have lost nearly half their value this year

Bank of America has about 50 senior employees reviewing some 150,000 ideas for cutting costs, Moynihan said.

Whom to contact for online mobile recharge failure related issues?


 Few days back I recharged a BSNL Mobile phone from "Prepaid mobile recharge" option of ICICI Bank online website.

After making the payment, the payment status was displayed as "Success". And, I checked the payment details to make sure that I entered the Mobile phone number correctly and entered the valid recharge amount.

But, the Mobile phone was NOT recharged even after 4 days. Normally the mobile phone will be recharged within few minutes after making the successful payment. So, I thought of contacting someone to resolve this issue.  But I don't know whom to contact. Initially I thought of contacting ICICI bank customer care. Since the payment was successful, I thought it is NOT appropriate to contact them. The next choice will be BSNL Support.  But I was not having proof to show them about successful payment. Because, in ICICI bank payment the Biller name is specified as "Euronet Services India Pvt Ltd"


Finally I contact all three parties (ICICI Bank Customer care, BSNL Customer Care and EuroNet Services)


I sent email to Euronet Services (rmishra@eeft.com,emr_support@eeft.com).

And, I registered a Service request by calling ICICI Bank Customer care at 044-42088000 (Chennai Customer care number). And, I was informed that it will be take around 5 days to resolve it.


Then, called the BSNL Help Line (1800-180-1503 ), and I was told that it will be resolved in 48 hours.



The next day I got reply from Euronet with below message
 "Below transaction got declined due to some network issue at operators end; your bank account will be reversed within 3 working days. In case of any further delay in reversal of your account please contact bank."
 And, the money was returned to my ICICI bank account.

I would like to know who is responsible for solving this kind of issues, whether it is BSNL, or ICICI Bank or the EURONET? You can share your thoughts thro' the comments.

Be Aware of Malware attack


Recently, most of our websites faced Malware injection. Initially Chrome browser started showing warning about this Malware attack.
Immediately I started correcting the issue. But, almost all the Index.php files  in all sub-folders of all add-on domains got affected by this Malware injection.
So, I contacted the support of our hosting to fix this issue. They immediately removed all the affected files using their Tool.  Let me know if you still see warning message in any of our sites.

If you expect this kind of quick support, you can use HostGator as your hosting.

You can use Coupon code QUALITYPOINTHG to get $9.94 OFF, or you can use QUALITYPOINT25 to get 25% OFF.

Our hosting support informed me that this  attack was performed via the FTP protocol. And, they said that the compromised hosting or email passwords are usually stolen from desktop or laptop computers infected with viruses or other malware.
 And, they referred to use MalwareBytes ( http://www.malwarebytes.org/ )  for keeping our computer safe from any malware attack.

It seems mostly the viruses stole passwords stored in FTP clients such as FileZilla. So, we should not store the passwords in the FTP client programs.

Even if our hosting helped to fix this issue immediately, the impact of this malware attack continued for one day.
Because, Safe browsing initiative of  Google marked the malware affected sites, and it started showing warnings even after the malware got removed.
I had to send request for removing those warning using Google webmaster Tools.

So, it is better to prevent these kind of malware attacks by keeping our Desktop clean. And, we should not store passwords in the FTP clients.

Google acquires Restaurant Rating Service Zagat


 Google has acquired Zagat, one of the most well-known names in restaurant reviews. Zagat is best known for its small guidebooks (the dead-tree sort) that offer reviews and recommendations on restaurants around the world.

The move is part of Google’s mission to improve its local products.

Google will likely use Zagat ratings to bolster its Google Offers which is a daily deals service that was launched after Google failed to acquire Groupon. With Zagat's ratings and reviews, Google will be able to compete directly with Yelp.


Zagat was founded  in 1979, and,  now includes ratings and reviews submitted by 350,000 ‘surveyors’ — its own consumers submit content for use in future guidebooks. Recently, the company has moved its reviews online as well, and it offers mobile applications for the top smartphone platforms.



With Zagat, we gain a world-class team that has more experience in consumer based-surveys, recommendations and reviews than anyone else in the industry. Founded by Tim and Nina Zagat more than 32 years ago, Zagat has established a trusted and well-loved brand the world over, operating in 13 categories and more than 100 cities. The Zagats have demonstrated their ability to innovate and to do so with tremendous insight. Their surveys may be one of the earliest forms of UGC (user-generated content)—gathering restaurant recommendations from friends, computing and distributing ratings before the Internet as we know it today even existed. Their iconic pocket-sized guides with paragraphs summarizing and “snippeting” sentiment were “mobile” before “mobile” involved electronics. Today, Zagat provides people with a democratized, authentic and comprehensive view of where to eat, drink, stay, shop and play worldwide based on millions of reviews and ratings.
Tim Zagat, CEO and Chairman of Zagat had published below announcement in Zagat website.

ZAGAT GOT GOOGLED

This may be the most important announcement in our 32 years of business: We have been acquired by another great company, Google. Nina and I will continue to be active in the business as co-Chairs; however, the merger of our resources, expertise and platforms with those of Google will give us the opportunity to greatly expand. We have spent enough time with Google senior management to know that they fully share our belief in user-generated content, and our commitment to accuracy and fairness in providing consumers with the information necessary to make smart decisions about where to eat, travel and shop.

From its beginning, Zagat Survey has empowered consumers by giving them a vehicle to express their opinions. Today Zagat offers its succinct, curated, survey-based ratings and reviews in print, online and on virtually every mobile platform. Covering countries around the globe, Zagat has come to be a symbol of quality.

Of course, none of this would be possible without the active participation of hundreds of thousands of knowledgeable consumers. Their experiences, expertly distilled into numerical ratings and concise, witty, quote-filled reviews, provide accurate guidance for a wide range of leisure activities. We are particularly proud of the myriad corporate customers who have used our content in their marketing activities over the years.

All of the above achievements have depended on the hard work of our dedicated staff. We believe that this merger will be not only in their best interests, but also in the interests of our customers thanks to the vast additional resources and reach that Google will bring to our company. Google is the first place everyone goes when looking for information; it’s the perfect home for our content.

We couldn’t be happier to see our baby placed into such good hands and are looking forward to being Googlers in the years ahead.

Do you want to promote your website or the product efficiently?


 

I am writing  this post after doing lot of analysis and discussions about taking this decision.

Let me explain  thro' this blog post, about  what decision I had made.

I used to get lot of emails asking me whether our Team can promote their Products or Websites by doing SEO and Social Media marketing. I believe they might have been inspired by the fast growth of our own Websites which are being promoted by our own Team.

But, I hesitated to accept those offers. Because, our primary focus is doing web development (i-e web site creation and web programming using php) rather than merely doing web promotions. We had done lot of projects involving complex php scripts development. For example, we had developed a resume posting script which will automatically post the Resume to lot of Job sites. And, we have developed many SEO scripts (e.g Rank checker, inbound link analysis, domain analysis, PR sorting script, etc). You can get more details about our scripts in our products page.

Anyway, I accepted the SEO tasks from some of our regular clients. While doing these SEO tasks I have realized that there is NO solid separation between Web Development and Web promotion.

One more important fact is, the way of the Web developers approach SEO promotions will give good benefits than the SEO tasks being done by Non-developers.

So, Now I have decided to accept more SEO tasks even when our primary focus is doing web development.

Our Script development skills, especially the expertise in handling php-curl scripts will help our Team to do the SEO tasks effectively by automating the repeated tasks. Anyway, we won't use/develop scripts which will spam the internet by doing automatic submissions. Instead, we use the  power of scripts to automate the time-taking and repeatable tasks. Since personally I am having QTP Automation background, I used to see every  possibility of automating the manual tasks while knowing about when to automate the tasks and when to NOT automate the tasks to get maximum efficiency.

Ok, Wait.... I am NOT going to accept the SEO outsourcing from everyone. If you are interested in assigning your internet marketing tasks to our Team, You  need to read this post further.

First of all, I am NOT going to give any promise (e.g First Position in Google, First Page in Google, First page in all search engines, etc) even if our primary focus is bringing your website to the front page of major search engines for the targeted keyword.

And, we won't use any black hat SEO approaches to gain immediate good ranking. We use only White-hat approaches for doing SEO. We strictly follow  the Google Guidelines for Web Masters. In other words, you may not get any immediate results but you will get good traffic in the long run.

I won't prefer to promote any website or product which is NOT giving any value for the customers. You may ask why I need to care about these things. But the fact is, taking care in these things will give good long term returns.  In other words, we are NOT going to support sales of a worthless products, instead we will just support the sales/promotion of Good products by guiding them to effectively utilize the Search Engines traffic and Social Media traffic. Anyway, we are NOT responsible for the products we are going to promote. Just I am talking about choosing appropriate product/site for doing promotion.

Ok. Now I will explain how we can help you to promote your websites/products by effectively utilizing the power of SEO and Social Media.

Let us assume that you are having one excellent product and planning to sell them thro' online, and created a website for selling the product.

In this situation, we can help you to choose appropriate target keyword for your website. Choosing an appropriate target keyword is NOT an easy task. It is the critical part of doing SEO promotion. We will do the analysis about how people will search your product/site, and will shortlist various keywords using Google Keywords Tools based on the Search volume and Competition. We refer lot of other resources (eg. Google trends, SEMRush), your domain name and your site content to choose the appropriate target keyword from the shortlisted keywords.

For example, we have selected "timesheet" as the target keyword for our site TimeSheetScript.Com

Once after choosing the Target keyword, we will start optimizing your site for this target keyword.

If you give access to your server, we will do the necessary changes for doing on-page optimization of your site for the Target keyword. i-e We will add the Target Keyword in Title, Meta keywords, Meta content and H1 tag contents.
And, we will tweak the Meta description so that it will drive the user to click the link when it is getting displayed as search snippet in the Search results of the Search engines.

We will test your site to make sure that your site is NOT having any page loading or performance issues which will affect SEO.

And, we will add Google Analytics code into your site to get the traffic details, and we will include your site to Google webmaster Tools which will be very helpful for tracking the keyword positions and for doing lot of SEO activities.

Once after doing all necessary on-page optimizations, our Team can start work on doing off-page optimization for promoting your site for the target keyword.

We are having lot of blogs and websites with Google page rank. We can add your site link in our sites with anchor text of your targeted keyword to get the Inbound links.

And, our Team can add relevant comments in Blog posts related to the targeted keyword. Note that we won't do comment spam, instead we will add only unique and meaningful comments related to the article for which we are adding comments. We post comments manually only.  And, we do Forum posting and add Forum signature.

And we do Social bookmarking, Article submission, directory submission, guest posts, link exchange, etc. for getting quality backlinks.

We continuously monitor the outcome of our efforts by monitoring the backlinks and search engine keyword position using our own SEO tools.

Based on the measured outcome, we used to tweak our SEO promotion strategy.

Apart from doing SEO promotion, we can do Social Media promotion also. Our Team members are having active accounts with lot of real Followers/Friends in lot of Social Media sites. Especially we effectively utilize the Twitter for getting traffic. We have developed lot of Twitter Tools (e.g AutoTweet, Multipost, Bulk load) for making our Social Media promotion efforts easy.

We used to send the status update on daily basis so that you can understand what we are doing daily for promoting your site.

Contact me rajamanickam.a@gmail.com if you want more details.

Note that since we use only white-hat approaches, SEO promotion may take significant time duration to give returns. In this case, we can help you to run PPC campaigns using Google Adwords. Right now, I am NOT an expert in Google AdWords. But, I know how to use is effectively by adding appropriate keywords and Geo targeting, and adding ads with "call to action" words. I will do my best to get good quality score to save money.

Visit our website to know about us, and you can refer my LinkedIn profile.

I am going to accept SEO tasks from  few customers only, as our Team is already engaged with some tasks and we plan to develop new products also. So, if you want to use this opportunity, give more details about you while contacting me thro' my email rajamanickam.a@gmail.com

You can choose to get any kind of SEO service. i-e Either you can ask us to do complete SEO and Social media promotion for your site, or just can ask our Team to do link building, or we can do only SEO consultancy for helping you to choose appropriate keywords and Tools, or we can  run PPC campaigns.

And, we will accept daily tasks also.  So, there is NO risk for you. You can ask our Team to continue the task next day only if you are satisfied with the previous day work.

Similarly, we also reserve the rights to stop working on your tasks at any time if we feel that promoting your site is NOT suitable for us. So, we won't accept any long term contracts initially.

And, we offer attractive hourly prices as an Introductory offer for first few customers. You can contact me soon to use this Offer.

Apart from working on hourly basis, we can work on a Monthly package basis also. Contact me to get more details.

Carol Bartz has been fired as CEO of Yahoo


Yahoo! fired chief executive Carol Bartz, less than three years after she was brought in to help turn around the struggling Internet company.

In a statement Yahoo announced Bartz had been "removed" from her post and would be replaced by chief financial officer Timothy Morse "effective immediately" on an interim basis as the firm began the search for a new, permanent CEO.

In an e-mail sent to Yahoo employees from her iPad and titled "Goodbye," Bartz wrote: "I am very sad to tell you that I've just been fired over the phone by Yahoo's chairman of the board." She wrote, "It has been my pleasure to work with all of you and I wish you only the best going forward."

Bartz joined Yahoo in January 2009, replacing co-founder Jerry Yang who had returned to the helm of the company in an ill-fated bid to turn its fortunes around. Bartz had also fallen out of favour with Wall Street investors, unhappy with her turnaround strategy and her handling of the firm's strained relatonship with China's Alibaba Group, in which it holds a 40% stake.



Yahoo! chairman Roy Bostock  said in a Statement:
"On behalf of the entire Board, I want to thank Carol for her service to Yahoo! during a critical time of transition in the Company's history, and against a very challenging macro-economic backdrop. I would also like to express the Board's appreciation to Tim and thank him for accepting this important role. We have great confidence in his abilities and in those of the other executives who have been named to the Executive Leadership Council."
"The board sees enormous growth opportunities on which Yahoo! can capitalize, and our primary objective is to leverage the company's leadership and current business assets and platforms to execute against these opportunities," Bostock said.

 
Yahoo! shares were up 5.73 percent at $13.65 in after-hours electronic trading.

And, Yahoo employees are celebrating the fact that their chief executive, Carol Bartz, has been fired.
Former Yahoo vice president Brad Garlinghouse greeted the news with a  tweet: “Ding dong the witch is dead.”


According to a survey by Glassdoor, Bartz’s approval rating among Yahoo employees has been declined over the past two and a half years. Refer the below chart.



Find below the some of the comments from yahoo employees in the Glassdoor Survery.


  • “No strong leadership with vision & execution. Especially lacks execution.” – Yahoo principal  engineer
  • “Be straightforward with the real problems Yahoo is facing and focus on the core business rather than spread the money over many irrelevant projects that are destined to die from the day they start.” –Yahoo employee
  • “Very low employee morale is taking a toll on those who still want to work here, Upper management gives the same raa-raa speeches will little to back up the talk.” – Yahoo employee
  • “Lack of numbers driven decision making, lack of customer focus. Top leadership denies the world changed so we are still pursuing the portal business when the world rapidly changes to mobile, apps, social networks and location based personal solutions.” – Yahoo product manager
  • “Keep fighting the good fight; keep employees motivated, and reward them for doing well! Do better at identifying top talent and nurturing, stimulating, and retaining that talent.” – Yahoo technical employee
  • “please stop making senseless speeches about your vision and strategic plans. Instead, focus more on quality engineering and addressing the platform problems. Please don’t attempt to save a few bucks by outsourcing.” – Yahoo technical employee
  • “go away already!” – Yahoo web analytics manager
Previously HP's woman CEO Carly Fiorina also faced the same situation.  Now it happened to Yahoo's Carol Bartz. So, I am seeing many comments in many websites saying that women are NOT suitable for the higher management posts in big companies. Do you agree with these comments? You can share your thoughts thro' the comments section.



And, Yahoo VP of product development Bobby Figueroa is also leaving the company.

About Calol Barz
Bartz was born in Winona, Minnesota. Her mother, Shirley Bartz, died when Carol was eight years old. A few years later, she and her younger brother Jim moved from Minnesota to the home of their grandmother, Alice Schwartz, on a dairy farm near Alma, Wisconsin.
In high school, Bartz did well in mathematics, and was also homecoming queen. She began college at William Woods University in Fulton, Missouri, and subsequently transferred to the University of Wisconsin–Madison where she received a bachelor's degree in computer science in 1971. While in college, she supported herself as a cocktail waitress.

In 1976, Bartz went to work at the manufacturing conglomerate 3M, but left after her request to transfer to the headquarters was denied.

She became CEO of Autodesk in 1992. According to Forbes, Bartz "transformed Autodesk from an aimless maker of PC software into a leader of computer-aided design software, targeting architects and builders."

Bartz served on several boards of directors, including those of Intel, Cisco Systems, Autodesk, BEA Systems, Network Appliance, and the Foundation for the National Medals of Science.  Additionally, she has been a member of the United States President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.

Bartz is  married to Bill Marr, a former executive at Data General and Sun Microsystems. They have three children: Bill, Meredith, and Layne. Her hobbies include golf, tennis, and gardening.

Bartz was also awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters degree (2002) from New Jersey Institute of Technology, an Honorary Doctor of Science degree from Worcester Polytechnic Institute and an honorary Doctor of Letters degree from William Woods University

On balancing a career with family, Bartz says: "I have a belief that life isn't about balance, because balance is perfection ... Rather, it's about catching the ball before it hits the floor

When Carol was hired by Yahoo in early 2009 she was paid an annual base salary of $1 million. She was eligible for an annual 400% bonus and received 5,000,000 shares in addition to an equity grant of $18 million of stock.

Website for Learning HTML5



According to the Indeed Job Trends, "HTML5" is the #1 job trend - the fastest growing term over the last year - beating "Mobile app" in second place and "Android" in third place.


This HTML5 job Trend is continuing for many months as the HTML5 is going to dominate the entire Internet including Mobile devices.




So, obviously people will be showing interest to learn HTML5 to make them qualified for getting appropriate jobs. The Google Keyword Tool is proving this fact. i-e The term "Learn HTML5" is having good amount of Search Volume, and CPC is also good.  I have decided to make use of this online earning  opportunity while helping others to learn HTML5 which is in high demand. So, We have started a free online learning website LearnHTML5.Info





Right now, this HTML5 learning website is having few pages only. But, we plan to add lot of quality content soon.


So, what is HTML5? Actually, it is not just HTML. It is a family of technologies that includes new HTML tags, CSS3, and some new APIs.


Read below something about HTML5, and visit "Learn HTML5"  website to get more details about HTML5.

HTML5 is a cooperation between the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG).

HTML5  lets you create a web application that works almost like a desktop application.

HTML5 defines an HTML syntax that is compatible with HTML4 and XHTML1 documents published on the Web.

The HTML syntax of HTML5 allows for MathML and SVG elements to be used inside a document

HTML5 is still a work in progress. However, most modern browsers (Chrome, FireFox) have some HTML5 support.

Semantics->HTML5 adds new tags  like <header>, <footer>, <nav>, <section> and <article> for defining the structure of   the pages effectively. The addition of RDFa, microformats and microdata, add more programmatic accessibility and meaning to the content.


Offline & Storage->Web Apps can start faster and work even if there is no internet connection.  HTML5  provides App Cache, as well as the Local Storage, Indexed DB, and the File API specifications to achieve this.

Connectivity->More efficient connectivity means more real-time chats, faster games, and better communication. Web Sockets and Server-Sent Events are pushing (pun intended) data between client and server more efficiently than ever before.

Multimedia->HTML5 adds several new audio and video tags that enable developers to add multimedia without the use of Flash. This becomes more important when dealing with the various mobile devices, especially the iPhone which won't support Flash.

Device Access-> Beginning with the Geolocation API, Web Applications can present rich, device-aware features and experiences. Incredible device access innovations are being developed and implemented, from audio/video input access to microphones and cameras, to local data such as contacts & events, and even tilt orientation.

You can start learning HTML5 from this "Learn HTML5"  site online freely.
