But you can also join an affiliate program wherein you can get to choose from an array of advertisers.

Associate Programs:

It is easy to join an Associate Program. All you have to do is to visit their website and accomplish their online application forms. Most of the times, they will require that you have your own domain name, so it is better register your domain name first before joining an Associate Program. Once it is approved you will be given an HTML code that you will copy paste in your website. I would strongly suggest you to choose the program according to the needs and tastes of people your website caters to rather than applying for everything.

Types of affiliation:

There are 3 major types of affiliation are there for any affiliate program or associate program.

  • PPC or Pay Per Click-The only time you get paid is when visitors click on their advertisement.
  • Pay Per Lead-When a visitor in your website clicks on the banner or text ad and purchases an item or services from the advertiser that is when you make money from it.
  • PPI or Pay Per Impression-Basically this is the most common way of earning money from your website. Because you are paid depending on how many times the ad is displayed in your site.

You can choose one or more ways of methods of affiliation; however the decision is to you to choose the one that best suits your website.

Remember also to generate money in your website, the most important thing is to "Update your website regularly". This keeps your website up to date and attracts the visitors for latest updates.

A 'Directory' and its significance

Directories are the systems that categorize the websites and make us find them easily. Howsoever as being very useful for us, Google has been dirtied by some websites which plan on getting paid by using the traffic of Google (these websites are also called “Spams”). So, these directories find a solution for this problem. And thus, they are more trustful. Because in these directories, only real people view the websites. Not robots as in Google. And they add your websites into these directories for real.

It’s very important to get your website recorded into these directories. Because search engines support them. And specially having your website recorded in a directory makes it get indexed faster.

Here, specially we’re gonna tell a directory called www.dmoz.org.

From this address, you can reach DMOZ which is supported by Google. If you can get your website recorded in DMOZ, you can make it get indexed very fast.

Not being known that much by people, websites like DMPZ have a lot of users. And they can send their visitors to your websites directly.

While getting recorded in DMOZ, you have to specify your category very good. This may take some time. But try to spend time on this and try to view/learn how your competitors recorded their websites. It is really hard to be recorded in DMPZ. TO success this, try to check these criteria:

  • Is your website’s content different in its own category?
  • Does your website have a better design when you compare with other websites?
  • Is there any grammar mistake in your website? (this is really important)
  • Has your application got any information that has nothing with your website?
  • Is your website one of the best in its own category?
  • What are the features of your website that makes a difference?

How do search engines work?

Search engines plan on finding all we need. Think that you are in a place that you don’t know and you need to shop. Who would you ask the shop center’s placeto? You’d ask to someone who knows the place, wouldn’t you? In the same way, Search Engines are the conversants of internet. They provide the information that you are looking for by choosing the data from their databases. And show the results form the best to the worst.

For example, you asked the place of the nearest shopping center of good quality. Accordingly having no distance term on internet, search engine will show you the shopping center of good quality. But, how does it decide which the best one is? Who is the best in the eyes of Search Engines?

Lets keep going with the same example,

How could you describe a good shopping center?

Having a long past, having enough experience, recommendation from other people, having a good looking from inside and outside, having boards inside to make you find your way easily, having benchs inside to make you find your product easily, keeping the products in a row, having no detergents next to fruits and so on… Search engines behave in the same way.

Search engine pages are the most visited pages of internet. And they send clean and trusty visitors to other websites. The best and the most famous search engine is Google. Google has to be your best friend on internet. Because it sends the most number of visitors to a website. And also it provides some different free of charge services.

Importance of SEO

For example, you want to make a presentation and your aim is to make a research of the ‘Presentation’ word in the results of Google. You want to see and validate the company that makes presentations, also want to see its references, work and examples. You see some companies in first ranks in your search and you are go directly to each site to check for their competency levels in your your area of interest. After that, you write down the details of the companies that you like and begin to contact them.

With this impressive way, you too can sell your products , win customers etc... but its not that simple!

There are millions of websites you have to race with! Thus, getting traffic to your website is really hard and expensive. There are some ways which you need to pay for each page impression and of course, each user visit. With Google Adwords, you can publish your website’s advertisement at the right side of Google pages. However, only 5 percent of the users click those advertisements. Thus, SEO’s importance increases more. The most important thing is to take a place in the results of the natural search that is made by 95 percent of Google users. This is everybody’s aim and dream.
