In one of my previous posts I talked about directories submission as a way to get one way links to your website. Today I would like to show you another great way to get a one way link to your website: Articles Submission.

While article submission isn’t anything shockingly new to the world of SEO, many people STILL don’t do it… and for good reason. It takes so incredibly long to do manually.

Most of the web marketers using articles submission as a killer tool to get one way links and to get traffic to their websites. Most of them are using only few of the major article directories to submit their articles to. Usually they manually copying and pasting the information into the required textboxes on each submission site. That could take a lot of time !

As I like to say, for every problem there is a solution .
Take a look at this free program created by Brad Callen and Bryxen Software, Inc. that allows you to automatically submit your articles to hundreds of article directories with a few mouse clicks. Basically all you have to do is to input your article criteria into the software, ONCE! Then, the program would automatically fill in all of the required data at each of the submission websites. Pretty incredible if you ask me.

The only part I didn’t understand was why the program is free… but I can’t argue with that I suppose.

The software currently contains around 700 article directories, all free to submit your articles to. It is the most straightforward program that we’ve come across, in that all you need to do is:

1. Input your article details (i.e. title, article body, bio, etc.) into the software

2. Click on the directory you want to submit to

And then the program will automatically fill in your article details. Then, you simply click the submit button and your article is instantly submitted to the directory. Then, you can move to the next directory, go through the list, and by the time you’re finished you’ll have roughly 700 one way links pointing to your website.

I can’t think of an easier way to get links. Of course, if you’re going to get links this quickly, it’s important to submit different variations of your articles, to make things look more natural to the search engines.

You can do this very easily via Article Submitter when you create your project in the beginning.

The software is constantly being updated and their is an incredible community of users established that all work together to make the software better and better, so you know you’re getting great value for the money.

You may or may not know that Website Directory Submission is quickly becoming a very popular and easy way to get quality, one way links to your website.

These kind of links are exactly what the search engines are looking for. The websites with more quality, one way links are typically the sites that rank the highest, period.

With that said, there are several websites directory submission programs on the market. One of the best and easiest to use is a new program created by Brad Callen, called Directory Submitter. The Free Directory Submitter addition is limited to 350 directories while the licensed version contain more then 1700 directories.

It is the most straightforward program that we’ve come across, in that all you need to do is:

1. Input your website details (i.e. title, description, URL, etc.) into the software

2. Click on the directory you want to submit to

And then the program will automatically fill in your website details. Then, you simply click the submit button and your website is instantly submitted to the directory. Then, you can move to the next directory, go through the list, and by the time you’re finished you’ll have roughly 1500 one way links pointing to your website.

I can’t think of an easier way to get links. Of course, if you’re going to get links this quickly, it’s important to vary your website title (anchor text) every 20-30 links or so, to make things look more natural to the search engines.

You can do this very easily via Directory Submitter when you create your project in the beginning.

Today I would like to write about two important SEO terms: On page optimization and off page optimization.

On page optimization refer to the action that you need to take on your website pages. Many are not aware, but sometime a single change can improved you ranking in big time or alternatively can cause a serious fall to your ranking.

Off page optimization refers to the way other websites link to your website: What anchor text they are using, how many out links they have on their website etc.

Although you will find that most of your work will be around the off pages optimization, make sure to give the right attention to the on page optimization as well. Don’t get wrong, although the off page optimization considered as the easy part, it’s mostly because it is under the webmaster full control. You still have to keep track on your websites changes and make sure all of your pages are well optimized. Just be careful not to make your web pages too “perfect”. Make sure your web pages looks natural and not purely SEO oriented. My rule of thumb is simple: If the users like it the search engine will like it too.

There are lots of off page parameters that you need to track. Better to check them occasionally. Doing so will give you a good understating about your SEO efforts outcome. It will also give you a great way to predict your ranking position in the next “Google dance”.

Let me show you how I manage that kind of task effectively. I am using SEO Elite in order to get all the information about those who link to my website. All I have to do is to type the name of the domain and to choose the search engines that I would like to get the information from.

The outcome report and very detailed. I have all the domains that link to my website. I get each page and its page rank. SEO Elite summaries for me in a special section of the report how many links I have from each PR. For each back links I get to see the age of its website, its IP and whether the back link is still active. The last one is very important. SEO Elite not just get the information from the search engines SERP but also verified that it is still valid. As you can see, within few clicks I get detailed information that helps me to track after my SEO progress. Next I will show you how I get links to my website. How do I know which website has an added value for my SEO efforts.

Few days ago I demonstrated how we can use the “allinanchor” and “allintitle” Google operator. Let’s now have a look how “allinanchor” & “allintitle” operators can give us more powerful ways to track at the SEO progress of our website and to have a better understating about the niche market and its potential competitors

This time I will show you how I am using SEO Elite to get a detailed report for the “allinanchor” operator results. Please note the following process can be done also for the “allintitle” results. Using both of the reports together will give you the ability to get some interesting conclusions.

SEO Elite has several project types that every SEO guy can use. It doesnt matter if you are a newbie with SEO or an expert. At this time I will use project number 3: “Analyze AllInAnchor, AllInTitle or AllInText”. SEO Elite will generate a complete report for a given keywords. You can choose between AllInAnchor, AllInTitle or AllInText operators for every keywords you like. I would like to generate a “allinanchor” report for the “SEO Tools” as my keywords.

Let’s take a look at the SEO Elite report. The report contains one section. This section is divides into two windows. The left window is natural results from Google for the search phrase: SEO Tools. The right window contains the results using the search engine function allinanchor, i.e., allinachor: SEO Tools. On each row, next to each website you will find its page rank (PR).

SEO Elite help make things easily visible. If you will click the PR column’s row on the right side the website will be highlighted. On the left side window you see where the site ranks for the natural search.

So what is the big deal !?

Well…. Taking a close look on the report can tell us the following:
If a website has a high ranking in the right window (contains the results using the search engine function allinanchor), we can assume that this website has lots of back links using that anchor. Most likely that this website is been optimized for this keywords. If at the same time the website also ranked high in the left side (natural results), it will be wise to do a full research about this website SEO affords. Later I will explain why.

However, if at the same time the website doesn’t appear at all in the left side, we can assume that the webmaster is doing some SEO for this keywords but yet did not to take a good position in the natural results. You should diffidently consider that kind of website to your direct active competitor.

In some cases you will find on the right side websites that has lots of back links but still do not show on the natural results. This could be because of the SandBox affect that I mentioned in a previous article.

It’s a good example for a simple task that can be done in an effective way, this time using the SEO Elite software. Generating this report on a regular basis can give you a good estimation about the trends in the SERP in your niche market. More than that, it’s a great way to try to predict the changes in the natural results before they actually take place.
