Search Engine Myths Exposed is undoubtedly one of the best ebook I have ever read. And the best part is that it's 100% FREE. When you read this 49-page ebook, you will immediately feel that the writer (Jonathan Leger) had done an extensive research. This guy really knows what he's talking about. Unlike many other gurus who give empty words and bogus advice, Jon always back up his words with facts, you will see a lot of proofs, screenshots and examples in this ebook.

The aim of Search Engine Myths Exposed is to debunk the following MYTHS surrounding Search Engine Optimization (SEO)...

Myth #1: Google Knows All and Sees All
Myth #2: Google Will Not Rank Duplicate Content
Myth #3: You Must Get Links From Related Subject Sites to Rank
Myth #4: Your Site Must Focus On One Subject To Rank
Myth #5: High PageRank Means Good Rankings
Myth #6: To Maintain Good Rankings, You Must Add New Content
Myth #7: The Biggest Myth: Ranking in Google is Hard

If you're like many Internet Marketers, you probably think that all of the above myths are true. I definitely thought so because I've been listening to all the “gurus” who talked about things like meta tags, keyword density, linkings, PageRank, duplicate content, etc.

If you want to learn about the truth on how Google ranks web-pages and what SEO methods really work, you need to read this ebook. The value of this ebook is so much better than so many ebooks that cost you $97.

So, please head over to "Search Engine Myths Exposed" and download it now while it's still free!

Google is like the Holy Grail of marketing on the web. Rank well in Google and your profits are pretty much set.

But there is SO MUCH bogus information out there, often coming from the "gurus" themselves.

On January 9th, 2008, Jonathan Leger is releasing a new free report that completely obliterates the following myths about Google (and then goes on to show you what DOES work):

Myth #1: Google Knows All and Sees All
Myth #2: Google Will Not Rank Duplicate Content
Myth #3: You Must Get Links From Related Subject Sites to Rank
Myth #4: Your Site Must Focus On One Subject To Rank
Myth #5: High PageRank Means Good Rankings
Myth #6: To Maintain Good Rankings, You Must Add New Content

..and..
MYTH #7: THE BIGGEST MYTH: Ranking In Google Is Hard!

The site is in pre-launch now, but if you sign up early you will get a sample chapter full of proof and details.

And did I mention he'll pay you for referring other people to this powerful free report? And that he'll pay you for anyone THEY refer as well (even while it's in pre-launch)? Find out more about that when you download your sample chapter from:

7 days to Google search results—on a new URL?

My group provides Search Engine Optimization and we spend a reasonable amount of experimentation time to see what we can do to sway search engines into our good graces. A good deal of the sites we take under the knife have URLs with a history and web sites to match which are in Google’s index. Achieving relevant Google rankings takes a few weeks on the outside.

For web sites that are hosted on brand new domains it takes more time. If you’re remotely into online marketing, you’re likely aware of the Google Sandbox (also known as the Sandbox Effect). We’re used to seeing a two to four month Google Sandbox period. If you’re not, here’s a layman’s explanation from Wikipedia:

The Sandbox Effect is a theory used to explain certain behaviours observed with the Google search engine. The Sandbox Effect is the theory that websites with newly-registered domains or domains with frequent ownership or nameserver changes are placed in a sandbox (holding area) in the indexes of Google until it is deemed appropriate before a ranking can commence.

The Google Sandbox is a topic of speculation in SEO circles Some say it doesn’t exist at all, that it’s purely a function of mathematics. Whether or not the Google Sandbox is real, or rankings simply don’t come do to algorithmic computation,we generally don’t expect to see Google rankings for a couple of months at least as we’ve observed it to be a good rule of thumb.

Enough back story. Where’s this site that got indexed and ranked on a new domain in less than a week for keyword phrases? You’re looking at it.

I purchased the domain http://www.onlinemarketingperformance.com a few weeks ago. I had the DNS server pointed to SEDO until the middle of last week when I allowed it to redirect itself to GoDaddy and to show an actual web site. After putting a few posts up, a co-worker commented on a couple of posts (which was kind as I only had three to speak of at that time). Which was odd; I hadn’t told anyone about the blog yet.

Today I decided to see if my site was showing up in Google’s results for keyword phrases. I searched on “online marketing performance” and was surprised to see my site ranking on page 4. To be clear, this is only when I search with the phrase in quotations.

I also tried my name “Scott McAndrew” and there I am-the 21st result; top of Page 3 (without the quotation marks).

I then tried a phrase comprised of keywords from a blog post title: “poking beyond facebook” (without the quotations). Page one. Fifth result.

I didn’t do anything special. I’ve heard that web sites can be shown on Google in the few days after launch, but that they then fall off into the Sandbox. I’m going to periodically check Google for the phrases above and see what happens. I’m curious to see if the site gets dropped off the SERPs or if it stays.

In case the Sandbox isn’t a fairy tale; that I continue to have placement in the SERPs; that I happened to have set up my blog more elegantly than I though I did, I’ll post the process I went through.

What Is Search Engine Optimization

Wed, 6 Dec 2007 22:40:42 GMT

Search Engine Optimization is a process of choosing the most appropriate targeted keyword phrases related to your site and ensuring that this ranks your site highly in search engines so that when someone searches for specific phrases it returns your site on tops. It basically involves fine tuning the content of your site along with the HTML and Meta tags and also involves appropriate link building process. The most popular search engines are Google, Yahoo, MSN Search, AOL and Ask Jeeves. Search engines keep their methods and ranking algorithms secret, to get credit for finding the most valuable search-results and to deter spam pages from clogging those results. A search engine may use hundreds of factors while ranking the listings where the factors themselves and the weight each carries may change continually. Algorithms can differ so widely that a webpage that ranks #1 in a particular search engine could rank #200 in another search engine. New sites need not be “submitted” to search engines to be listed.
