It light of all the buzz around the “Arbitrage Conspiracy” product launch, I thought I’d post a quick strategy on domain name bidding, which was briefly covered in the AC free report. This is not my endorsement for Arbitrage Conspiracy by any means…I’m simply providing you with a strategy you can use to bid on domain names whether you buy the course or not.

Basically, in this short video I walk you through a quick method of finding actual misspellings of searched for domain names. We all know that misspellings are a good way to get cheap, yet targeted traffic.

But usually our bidded on misspellings are just best guesses at what people actually type into the search field. What if you could know what they “actually” typed in? Take a look…

Again, I apologize in advance for the poor quality of the video. I need to do some more research on how to get better resolution when converting from Camtasia to YouTube. The video is hosted on YouTube, which may be a little clearer. Once I get a better video though, I’ll update this post with it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6RRry-9Mbc

If you have a quick read of a post I did back in August called “Content Stuffing Your Landing Pages…“, you’ll learn how to hide content with hidden div tags and css stylings.

Taking that same process a step further, you could do exactly the same thing and hide navigational menus that will help the Google bot spider your site, but at the same time, not give unnecessary links to follow for your real visitors.

Google wants to see links to a terms of service, page contact us, privacy policy. Also, having an xml sitemap, links to other internal pages such, and a few outgoing links to high quality resource sites can all improve your quality score. But depending upon the style of landing page you use, these links can be unsightly and lead to visitor “leakage”. Read the rest of this entry

I’m writing this post to save someone the frustrations I experienced last night as I tried to export a nice list of negative keywords into MSN AdCenter. What a pain that was!

I’ve exported complete campaigns from Adwords before, but I don’t do it often because (until recently), there wasn’t an easy way to get a campaign into AdCenter without it hiccuping and upchucking your data to shreds. (the template file they give you is complete crap by the way, but thank God for the AdCenter Desktop Tool. Microsoft finally did something right!)

I’m not going to cover all the steps of exporting a complete Adwords campaign to MSN in this post, because I think I want to save that for a video post. There are multiple way to do it. But what I do want to cover are exporting negative keywords, which isn’t as easy as you’d expect. Read the rest of this entry
