RE: My Flickr SEO Post – Indexed in Google

GET INDEXED IN GOOGLE WITHIN AN HOUR

I just wanted to point out real quick the power of Stumble Upon and Digg. I integrated Digg & Stumble Upon into my Wordpress blog. So every time I post a blog, I automatically submit my site to these highly popular sites.

This picture shows you how fast you can get a page indexed in Google. No more 2 months or 72 Hours before you can find your page.

This is important because websites and the pages within them have ages and the older the pages are the “better”Getting your pages indexed quit is mandatory. So go index those pages that Google can’t find.

Actually, I just went and did some research. I didn’t Digg this page, I just Stumbled it. I’ll Digg it later…

PS: You can check the times of all these post and see that Google indexed my site in a little less than an hour.

Flickr SEO – Optimizing Your Flickr Account & Photos

Hey Guys,

(If you don’t know what Flickr is, please enjoy the video tour of Flickr located at the end of this blog.)

Here are a few tips to help your Flickr account rank well in search engines. Having a profile with a  good portion of Flickr’s PR  relevant to your website could definitely help your website gain higher rankings or generate more traffic through Flickr.

Suppose you have a website for your hotel in Barcelona. You have many pictures of your hotel. Now someone goes searching for “Barcelona photos”; Flickr’s Barcelona tagged page is on the first page of the search results. If you properly optimize your profile and photos, they could show up on the first set of results in Flickr & in the engines. This could be a great form of branding.

This will also be a good way to create topical link tunneling through a authority site.

Tips I Forgot to mention in the Flickr SEO Video:

Once again I am very new to this video producing, but I have to create videos to get some type of rankings in this highly competitive internet marketing world. So, bear with me once again.

  • Your profile name (screen name) will be the name in the title tag, so choose wisely “I Love New York City”

  • Flickr Profile Screen Name

  • If you haven’t created an account yet, when you choose a username, pick one with your main target keyword in it,  this will be in your profile’s URL address. http://www.flickr.com/people/newyorkjames/

  • When writing your profile, some HTML is permitted. YES, you can bold your anchor texted <hx>’s and point them directly to a relevant site.

  • I should have played with the map a little more and showed you how you could create a little store front advertisement of your business for free on the public Flickr map. (Maybe that’s what my next video will be about.)

  • Also, you can give people testimonials with links that will show up on their main profile page.

  • Sets & Collections should match your main website’s theme and architecture with links pointing accordingly.

  • For the descriptions, write keyword rich descriptions surrounding links to your website.
