I was over on Grizzly’s blog about how to make money online and he wrote a post about the issue of weather or not you can make money with social traffic. Later he goes on to give examples that if you are currently running a blog and hustling for social traffic, a few changes you can make to your blog to help get more organic search traffic.

Please go read the article now and come back and finish this article.

Alright, now you’re back with me. Grizzly stopped by and recommended to me to change my page title. It used to say Bryan Clark - Onemansgoal. Now it says Make Money | Make Money Online | How To Make Money | How To Make Money Online

We don’t want to make it hard for Google to figure out what are site is about. Going back deep into Grizzly’s archives I found an article that talked more about on-page optimization. After the first recommendation of changing the title tag the next thing recommendation was to change the h1, h2 etc tags. Now, this step is easy if you have the All In One Seo Pack on your computer. If not go download it and change your header tags. Now the next step has me confused, but luckily I know a guy who can do it for me. The next thing mentioned was the Alt Img Tag. This tag is your header graphic. In my case it is the picture of the little green guys on the top of the page. Now I’m going to have my dude resave this image to the computer as makemoney.img or gif whatever it is, I don’t know. What this will do is effectively give me one extra chance to tell Google what my site is about.

Now the other piece of advice offered in the article was to go through your current list of links and ask your friends (the people that have linked to you in the past) to change the anchor text of the links. Now I’m doing this with a piece of software called SEO Elite This software allows me to analyze my back links. SEO Elite shows me as having 359 Back links to my sites. Yahoo has me at way more but for the purpose of this illustration we will use that.

Now the keywords I’m targeting are:

Make Money
Make Money Online
How To Make Money
How To Make Money Online
Making Money
Money Online

Now, here is how many anchored links I have for each term

Make Money - 33
Make Money Online - 17
How To Make Money - 0
How To Make Money Online - 0
Making Money - 1
Money Online - 18

I have a lot of wasted links between:

onemansgoal - 35
onemansgoal.com - 21
Bryan - 19

And simply links with no anchor text

Lately I’ve been out and about trying to build up links to this site. These wasted links are things I have simply overlooked.

Now my goal is to send of e-mails to all these people that linked to me in the past and see if they would simply go back into their site and change the anchor text of their links.

The only thing that concerns me is Google Bombing. If I send all of these people e-mails today and the all change the links and suddenly I have 70 make money related links coming into my site. Grizz, is this a cause for concern????

Peace
