Jeffrey Smith asked:


With all the talk about link building, in my summation there are only a handful of ways to truly build value for your website that won’t get you penalized from search engines.

When you think about it, the only reason to link build is search engines, if they didn’t exist, then the competitive basis of being first or in the top 10 for that matter would not matter. However, since it does, then there are a few strategies that are known for producing consistent results worth noting.

Blogging your way to the top

In case you don’t know what a blog is, you are more than likely reading one now. Blogs (abbreviated from Web-Logs) are a wonderful tool that allow you to share your innermost thoughts about a subject with readers from diverse backgrounds.

In addition they are more than just an editorial tool, they are a website development tool, a social networking tool as well as a search engine optimization tool with a plethora of implications.

The way it works is, if a blog is hosted on your server within your site, then every time you post a page, you are adding a page to your website.

This is great as it allows you to deep link (link to pages in your root directory or sub directories) to provide valuable life support to pages that may be sinking in the SERPs (search engine result pages) or just need a great third party referral to give them a boost.

Every time you deep link, your entire site gets a lift, since sub directories are oftentimes seen as different sites that your root folder of your website. This means that strategic cross linking can benefit both i.e. linking from your blog to your other folders or vice versa.

The main thing to consider when writing a blog is moderate keyword density which essentially breaks down to (if you want to rank for a term, put it on your pages at least 4-6 times for every 800-1000 words).

Although keyword density is another subject entirely, the point is keep on topic and use header tags or headlines when applicable to assist the overall keyword proximity. Once you write your post, use your main keywords in the title to get the most impact from search engines, since the title tag is your life preserver if a search happens to fly overhead and drop a line.

Think of it like a beacon or homing signal, but the more words you use, the less potent they become as the ranking potential is spread out amongst the words. From there, add your tags, using the strongest keywords, publish it and off you go.

Articles and Article Marketing

Articles are essentially like excellent third party endorsements. They are a win / win situation for both parties since the site hosting it appears as an authority (from the fresh and relevant content) and your website gets a link back their site from the author’s bio, resource box.

Article marketing is just one tier of an overall marketing strategy, however it provides search engine visibility and links.

Make sure to use your main keywords in the anchor text of the resource box when mentioning your company or services and get an added boost from the back link as most articles are syndicated throughout the web and can continue to provide value for weeks or months after they are created.

Online Web Directories

Web directories have seen better days and are now under scrutiny from search engines as glorified link farms. As the shift from quality was monetized into paying for premier listings, the quality slid for most directories and anyone and everyone with a few bucks was granted access to a link.

As a result search engines have applied filters to offset the value that links pass from directories to eliminate people from gaming links (abusing the system) in an attempt to to inflate link popularity.

Don’t get me wrong, although they have seen better days, this does not and should not preclude you from using them, just be aware if your motive is to gain a preferential advantage, your better off sticking to quality content on your website and building links between themed sites, which leads us to the next point.

Contextual Advertising from On Topic Sites or Blogs

You would think that no such penalty would exist for sites that are seeking out other websites with similar content and strategically creating an alliance for the betterment of each other.

In the past that was considered reciprocal linking, it also has fallen under the scrutiny of search engine algorithms due to abuse in the past. A new form of link development emerged called contextual advertising or contextual link building.

Contextual link building is in essence, the use of writing on topic information and in the midst of the paragraph, thesis, article etc. Doing a little name dropping to give the site your link is pointed at a boost.

An example of this would be to drop a line about one of my favorite SEO Blogs like so and pass on a bit of link love to the recipient. But the point being, this method of link development is bar far on of the most effective mechanisms available for websites struggling to find methods to build links ethically.

The difference between ethical blogging and unethical blogging is one has value the other does not. It doesn’t take a genius to decipher if a blog or link is on topic, contextual and useful vs. inflated, self serving or just plain spam.

Last but not least, let’s discuss:

One Way Permanent Links or Paid Links.

Without debating if you should or should not purchase links, barter or just plain call the person up, build a relationship and work out some type of agreement. Let’s just say that this method is one of the most effective methods for gaining high page rank links with targeted anchor text directed toward your website.

In a nutshell, this can dramatically impact your search engine placement and skyrocket your site into the limelight granted that it is done tactfully and not too fast.

Ethically it is challenged by white hat SEO and is definitely somewhere in a gray area of link building. But with so many of the other traditional alternatives drying up, many websites are turning to paid links as an alternative.

My only suggestion, if your going to aim at all, aim high, be tactful, don’t build links too fast using any of the methods outlined above, otherwise you may not even be able to find your own site using your company name (otherwise known as banned).

Like anything, use moderation, create a nice mixture of editorial links, directories, one way links from authority sites (by writing articles about them, making contact, or befriending the webmasters wholeheartedly) and you could be on the receiving side of a boost in the SERPs.

Though the World is round in shape we use to say nook and corner of the world because it is all belongs to the living being in it particularly the human being, anyone can get birth by the way of their parents but getting knowledge and understanding of the world is different and his/her own individual attention, unless we know somebody in the World there is no use of living therefore the zigime helps you to get friends world wide knowingly or unknowingly via social network.

When we say social networking particularly with the US population in mind, there are certain things we need to consider.

Why is the United States market being called the best in the world?

Is it because their nationality is a mix of the entire world’s population? Or is it because of their wealth?  Maybe, but we would suggest that it has more to do with the opportunity they offer to the rest of the world. ZigiMe is attracting more members from the US than any other country.

When it comes to attracting American members, ZigiMe compares well with other similar websites. 65%, and counting.

ZigiMe helps you make friends and business contacts worldwide via social network.

ZigiMe,  is website that has all the categories that the sophisticated member demands of Social Networking these days.

Friendships, Relationships, Entertainment, Business, Unlimited Photo albums, Music, Classifieds, Bartering services and a nice Workspace feature where you can conduct all your business.   And customizing your personal profile doesn’t get any easier than on ZigiMe.

The “zigime” is only the site which sites overall the world, so it knows exactly the requirements of others though may not be known that, as a matter fact, being a human one needs a kind of relaxation according to one’s needs, in that case one must know what exactly one need which only the  “zigime” knows about it.

Soon enter into “zigime” one will realize and get what more than one needs, it may be a regular concept that whoever enter into a site like “zigime” will get new friendship, which is a new relationship, entertainment, business through the friends can show one selves over all the world by the photo columns via “zigime”, can get resting house by friends can send documents through “zigime”s workspace, send messages through mail freely

There is a column where one can identify the number of friends one has up to date, can fix the background for one’s profile according to ones wishes, and so on and so forth.

Hence the space is limited in the front page the “zigime” could not explain which are all left than the given.

As you think the motive of zigime is absolutely not to do business through you, its all plan is to make “you” (the plural) into “you” (singular)

The world is valid only by the living things in it particularly human beings. When a man needs a piece he searches and does many works up to his level in that maximum of them entertaining themselves unavoidably. If he gets a partner with whom he can share all of his joys and sorrows in that itself they need different ways like having companions through letter with whom he met trains, buses etc, Out of all these things the latest and simplest way of getting friends in through social networking website. Knowingly or unknowingly and he comes to the nature of social network system.

What is socialism? How it works form where it has born like we can create lot of questions till get the real picture of it.

In those days people have suffered even to send an emergency messages but now its totally changed just matter of second we can pass the message to somebody to whom you need over the entire world.

Though it is a huge bundle of iron wire will be powered when a corner of it touches the current like once if enter into field of social network like Zigime, Myspace, Facebook, you will get millions of friends.

Though there many reasons to explain regarding the need of different social network I like to say the major reason for the charge in their mind is that they need always some different activities, like entertainment, meet new friends and business they search for the new social network like zigime.

Zigime is only the one which is giving the cake in time as per their taste and need particularly for the business man and friends who needs always communications with each other if you enter once into zigime you never get out of that It means zigime has all kind of applications and entertainment which you have never seen before.

My dear companions of universe you might be having many friends through other social network which are limited where as if you enter into zigime you will get different kinds of universal people in a different manner means with whom you can do jobs, business, barter, photos, classifieds and different kind of ideas and right place for you to stay. Once if you go there.

The zigime helps you to do upload music’s, videos, photos, groups, classifieds, barter, mail, and so on and so fourth as well as you will get comments for your works from any companions from the zigime world not only the comments but also your work will be rated according to your display.

So far whatever you have read may be the common but as a new zigime’s ideas as concern you can invite or send invitation to your zigime companions through events into there way if you interested you can show your ability means you can write anything means about your particular topic and expose it through via zigime blog.

The zigime helps you to keep the persons in your group who has the same taste has you have via zigime group’s column.

However if we keeps saying about the uses of zigime is countless once one entered into zigime the one will realize about that. Zigime is only the one which can serve around the clock.

F. Aldo asked:


One of the 21st century’s youthful social phenomena is probably rewriting all known sociology textbooks. The authors of those textbooks never would have even dreamed of such things like instant messaging, texting (or SMS in some areas), MySpace, Friendster and blogging. Put the sociologists of yesteryears in today’s wired world and surely they would be left scratching their heads and wondering where the humanity in relationships has gone.

“Dude, you don’t get it!”

For those of us who probably “don’t get it”, we should reach really far back and call up the idea of pen pals. If you were one of those who had a pen pal, remember how you used to look forward to receiving your pal’s letter in the mail? Never mind if the letters came every other month, there was no other choice at the time. The main thing was that the pen pal cared enough to write and you enthusiastically wrote back. And what about the stories you shared in your letters? Detailed communication! Nowadays, there are text pals or text mates. A typical message would probably read: “C u l8r at 7″. The reply would be a simple “K”. Come to think of it, I suddenly feel sorry for K’s one-time inseparable partner, O.

This, I humbly submit, is where all humanity ends.

I am not implying that the human race will end because of social networking, but rather what makes us humans. Life in the 21st century has introduced humanity to a lot of exciting, new technology and it is a wonderful thing. So many things that were once tedious are now incredibly convenient tasks. I have to admit that texting has been useful for me as well but the difference is my relationship with those who are dear and close to me does not revolve around it. I do not say this to admonish today’s youth. The point is I still prefer the personal communication as far as my relatives and friends go.

A web analyst once remarked that the popularity of sites like MySpace and Friendster is due to the immediacy of the members’ personal information such as their hobbies, likes and dislikes, photos, as well as a level of anonymity for all the members. Up to this day, I still have a hard time reconciling how anonymity can be an ingredient in personal relationships. Does it not take away from real communication?

“Chill dude, we’re just having fun!”

Fair enough. I am just worrying that today’s teenagers’ idea of communication is using words made up of consonants and numbers and no vowels. Maybe this is also part of the convenience that technology has afforded us. It would be a pity if some of today’s youngsters become slaves of technology instead of putting it to good use for themselves. Picking up all these bad habits early will be harder for them to break later on.

“Dude, you worry too much.”

Maybe. Maybe not. I am only thinking back to what some sociologists and psychologists once said–that effective communication is the basis of harmonious relationships. So my logic is simple–every society strives for harmonious relationships and since societies are made up of various networks, then social networking needs effective communication. So start using those vowels again. Now let’s party, dude.

Ron McNeil asked:


Social Networking websites can be found on every corner of the internet. Virtual communities, offering community software to help people to keep in touch with each other, have been popular since the first networking website was developed in 1995. From Classmates, LiveJournal to MySpace, social networking software is available to anyone who has access to the World Wide Web.

Online social networking began to grow in 1995, following the development of Classmates. This virtual community was designed to give members the community software tools they need in order to network with old friends they went to high school with. Classmates set the way for many other social network software providers to create web communities, to help people network with groups of people of their choice. Some popular online networking communities include:

1. MySpace

2. Blogger

3. MSN Groups

Social networking, in basic terms, is one way for a person to easily keep in touch with a group of people. With online social networking, community software is often available for any registered member of the virtual community. Most social network software will include:

1. an email box

2. a place to set up a user profile

3. instant message capabilities

4. photo sharing

5. public message sharing

6. private message sharing

These are not the only features included with some social networking software, but they are the most common features offered.

A major factor that contributes greatly to the growth of social networking online is the convenience and ease that the community software provides. It has never been easier to leave messages for a group of people, or locating people with the same interests and overall goals. Community software tools also enable picture and file sharing with ease. Private messages, as well as public messages, can be left with a few clicks of the mouse! Convenience and ease are proven factors that are aiding in the growth of online social interaction, as well as the increased use of social networking software.

The increased use of the internet is a contributing factor to the popularity growth of social network software. A great number of households have a least one personal computer, pocket computers, and cell phones with internet access as well. This is not to mention that almost every business has a website, and offer their products and services online. The popularity of the internet itself is helping the popularity growth of online social networking, as well as the software, that these virtual communities offer to their registered members.

MySpace is currently ranked the most popular website offering social networking software with membership, with over 38 million registered users who are unique. This means that MySpace has over 38 million “different” users, as opposed to having many of the same users creating different accounts. Although MySpace has come under scrutiny on many news stations, the popularity of the social networking software they offer continues to grow at a very high rate.

Blogger is another very popular social networking community with over 18 million registered unique users. Social network software on this website enables the member to publish entries in his or her “blog” as often as desired. This is only one feature included with the community software tools available with membership to this website. With an 80 percent year to year growth statistic, it is predicted that the popularity of Blogger will continue to rise.

Finally, Facbebook took the college demographic by storm, growing the site into a billion-dollar company in just a few years. The site, originally developed by a student from Harvard, catered to individual colleges. It has since expanded to high schools, and other networks, and has added many new features including classifieds, games, and a developer tools.

In recent years, social network software has begun making its way in an affordable form to the average small business or individual. These powerful and low cost solutions allow individuals to start their own social networking site, with the potential of becoming a huge success. What used to cost tens of thousands of dollars to develop in the early 2000s, now costs only a few hundred dollars, with setup being done in a matter of days. The rise of these sites run by individuals will cause a huge influx in the number of people running and accessing the various types of social networking sites out there today.

In conclusion, it is safe to say that social networking software will continue to grow in popularity. Because of the ease and convenience of community software offered by different virtual communities, many people will continue to take advantage of their use.

Review Host asked:


Individuals, of all different ages, enjoy meeting and communicating with other internet users. Despite the fact that individuals of all ages use the internet to socialize, there are certain groups of individuals that do more than others. Those groups of individuals include students, both high school students and college students. For that reason, it is only fitting that there should be a social networking website that has a focus on these particular individuals. That networking website is known as Facebook http://www.filmss.info

Facebook may not be as well known as other popular social networking websites, such as Yahoo! 360 or MySpace, but it is still popular. That popularity is mostly among high school students and college students, mostly because Facebook focuses on these individuals in particular. With Facebook, you are required to register for a specific network. That network can either include the high school or college which you attended or are currently attending. Once you have joined the website, you should easily be able to make contact with others who are in the same network.

The network in which you join can be considered an advantage of Facebook, as well as a disadvantage. See, Facebook does not work like most other social networking websites. Instead of being able to communicate with all site members, you are limited to contact with those that are in your particular network, the high school or college you that selected. The creators of Facebook state that this is for your own safety. Although it is safer for your profile and personal information to be viewed by a small number of individuals, you may not necessity want it to be that way.

Although a large amount of focus is placed on high school students and college students, Facebook has added another popular feature to their website. That feature is workplace networks. By joining a specific workplace network, you will be granted access to other community members who work for the same company as you. This feature is nice, especially since many companies have become large corporations or expanded across the country. You may be able to make contact and become friends with a long-distance coworker that you never knew you had.

Another aspect of Facebook that you may find inconvenient is their lack of available information, before you decide to become a community member. When viewing their online website, which can be found at http://www.facebook.com, it is hard to tell whether or not the site is free to use. Most online social networking sites will make this known right upfront, but Facebook does not. Aside from the price, you should easily be able to obtain additional information on Facebook, before making the decision to become a member. This additional information may include how Facebook works, why you should become a member, how the invite process works, and general rules and restrictions that are in place.

If you are interested in joining the Facebook community, you should do what you should do with all other social networking websites, research. By taking the time to research and examine everything that Facebook has to offer, you should be able to decide whether or not this popular networking community is what you were looking for. There is a good chance that it will be, but if not, do not worry. There are literally an unlimited number of other social networking websites that you can join.

Francis Githinji asked:


Social networking is one of the concept brought out well through social dating sites. Men seeking women no longer have to advertise their needs through lonely columns in the newspapers and in the magazines. Online dating helps the search for perfect dating partners. You can also meet locals through dating sites. If you live in Toronto or in Ontario you can also land on the partner of your dreams online. Many people have the misconception that online dating is used to facilitate long distance relationships. It can also act to bring people from the same area together who would be perfect partners. Local online dating is gaining popularity since it is not possible to be near each other all the time.

Men seeking women can now do it without the tension of approaching a woman physically. Online dating helps people who meet locals to nurture their relationships to the next level. The first meeting is only a tip of an iceberg. A lot of effort is needed to nurture the relationship. The online correspondence helps romance grow to unprecedented levels. On the other hand, social networking is a sure way to meet locals in local pubs, restaurants, weddings among other social gatherings. Men seeking women do not miss in such places. They try very hard to look their best and they arm themselves with love quotes, flirting quotes and love lyrics. It is a good try but you can get better results through online dating.

To meet locals after online dating increases the chances of success since you have enough background material about your first date. The physical meeting is only used for clarification of the already acquired basic information. Men seeking women online have that added advantage. There is no unwanted panicking. Women tend to fall in love easily and so once you have got them hooked it will become irreversible. They will be blinded by your flirting online and chances are that your physical looks will certainly not change a thing concerning her love feelings towards you. Local social networking through online dating is a perfect option for the shy type of guys. Shy guys rarely develop social skills since they always shy away from big crowds. They feel intimidated by strangers and they will rarely make a first move towards an attractive woman.

Social networking has really helped these unlucky brothers. If you are a shy guy, make online flirting your best hobby. The art of flirting helps many shy people overcome shyness. They are mostly allergic to first physical meetings and will do little to impress a woman. Unless the girl is interested in the guy and needs little or no coercing, the guy might face rejection and this mostly lowers his self-esteem. Men seeking women should be dedicated to do all it takes to get the best woman. Learning how to treat women will help you meet attractive locals. Learning how to deal with girls is an important aspect but if you are a shy guy it will not help you a lot if you do not overcome the habit. Take advantage of online correspondence to build your self-confidence and the ability to meet and approach people. Meet locals as well as international potential dates without fear.
