Like with a backlink building campaign where we aim to get as many relevant and popular links to boost or rankings, we’ll utilize the strongest pages we have within our site to boost our homepage’s rankings.
In a strategic link building campaign the goal is to get as many links that will vouch for our keywords from as many popular and relevant sites possible. So we must try to get links from sites that are ultra relevant to ours based on their theme and keywords, as well as sites that are popular in our community based on buzz and backlinks. Because afterall, search engine rankings are based on relevance AND popularity.
Just like we would with an off page link building campaign, we’ll have to discover our most relevant and popular pages within our site and add links containing our target keywords (pointing to the homepage) to each of them.
Let’s get started.

The previous post in this series was regarding running my blog through the SEO Workers’ Analyzer Tool and the Website Grader Tool and discovering what points my site fell sort on.

However, before I get started and continue on with this series I wanted to publish my site’s data to date since I KNOW it’s going to change..

This link building video reminds me of the time when the definitions of inspiration and motivation were clearly defined to me. This is how they differ..
Motivation is what moves you, requires actions/movement. While inspiration is a feeling, and feelings come and go. Motivation stays with you because it’s a decision just as much as it is a feeling. We cannot achieve anything with inspiration alone. Inspiration is nothing if it doesn’t spark motivation. Motivated people set out to achieve their goals by taking action.
Motivation/Movement/Motive/Motion/:
- Desire so strong that you actually act on it
- Sense that we have to do something and therefore we do it
- Feeling of energy channeled into the pursuit of a goal
“Life is what happens when you are making other plans” -John Lennon
Anyway, watch this video and you’ll see what I’m leading up to..

I was thinking about this series, its’ goal, and what I had in mind when examining its’ title; “Wordpress SEO to be a Top SEO Blog“. From how it sounds, this series is going to be about SEO tricks and Wordpress optimization techniques that will boost my rankings for the term “SEO blog”, AND IT IS/WAS. But thinking back to my post like “Deep Down, You Know Why You’re Not Ranking #1” led me to believe that I have to do much more than just optimize this blog.
So the good news for the followers of this series is not only will I share tips I’ve done within this blog, I’ll also be sharing other things I’ll have to do in order to compete in this saturated SEO blogsphere; which most likely will have nothing to do with WordPress at all.
Just keep that in mind.
So for my 2nd couple of hours..

I was in my Google Reader catching up on some blogs I follow and as one link led to another, the next thing I knew I was surfing a handful of internet marketing blogs I’ve never heard of, or seen before. So many good blogs and so many junk ones. From internet marketing and business to personal development and finance. Topics ranging from the iPad & the stock market to how to make money online and how to do SEO.
But this post is about a particular post I found written (and taped recorded) by an Australian internet marketer named James Schramko. Before I found this particular post I was already interested in this guy’s blog, hence me looking around and stumbling across “Essential Accounts for Internet Marketers“. Here is a video from the post. But the full read can be found at his blog.

A week ago, the cat was let out of the bag: Apple and Microsoft were in talks over replacing Google with Bing, and have been for weeks, as the default search engine on the iPhone. Immediately, there were questions over the implications of this move, both for the companies involved and the users.
Today, online advertising network Chitika has released some numbers that show just how big of a move this could be for all parties involved…
