YES, absolutely

On the way to God you have to be willing to give all. There is NO other way to prove that willingness to GIVE all than by actually giving all OR loosing all and keeping to love all and to strive for oneness with God while having lost all.

For all the truly spiritual ones among you I have noticed that the true beginning of real spiritual success in Kriya Yoga practice started the very same way as in my own life - after having lost all. Many do so the same way as myself. Loosing all after divorce. Hence a revenging ex-wife also may be a blessing. She separates you - or better - frees you from all those junk items and financial treasures that separated you from God. Your heart and mind needs to be free to welcome God in your life.

Some of those "loosing" all very soon realize that they have lost nothing else but all the wrong things that kept them from real success in life. Hence the loss was the beginning of a new happiness era in life and thus the loss of unhappiness if you want to called it a loss at all.

Time to review where your focus in and what you really support in life

In past many months we all have seen that even richest countries or economies may run out of funds. Just like communism ran out of funds a few decades ago. Mistakes always are more expensive than benefits resulting from mistakes. Hence all mistakes sooner or later run out of self sustaining energy. Hence it is vital for all of us th carefully budget available funds and direct all our available funds, time, money and other resources toward the really important goals in life.

In our modern high tech world, almost all of us who use or have regular access to a computer and thus we all use Internet resources more or less frequent. Almost all of us take it for granted that Google is there every time we want to search. Or that our favorite websites, forums, CNN.com, etc or social network sites Facebook, Myspace or online study groups, etc still running day after day. We rarely if at all think about the huge efforts of Trillions of man hours invested by OTHERS to have such free of charge information available and we usually even think much less about the Trillion of US dollars invested by other private persons or companies to offer you all this wealth of free information. Those only who lived at least for a while in countries with censureship or blockage of all or certain Information may truly value this online treasures.

For all those online services you enjoy. Private small sites like the Cyberspace Ashram or large sites. We web publisher all depend you a little support from you beneficiaries. That little support may vary from year to year depending on the global development of our Internet community and search engine technologies. All such support is free of charge to you as an Internet user, but does require a few minutes now and then of your valuable time.

Web promotion techniques - specially for you as Internet users. The last article with links to all relevant earlier blog articles from that most recent series was about anchor text optimization. A topic all should understand to be efficient in promoting any kind of services you enjoy. Even ordering online your home delivery of a pizza!!!

Learn to sit back on a regular basis and promote all those valuable sites you regularly enjoy or even need for your own life or business success. The a.m. blog article includes links to all relevant topics. A full range of more search engine optimization for those among you who have their own blog or web site can be found either on my blog topic category SEO

Just by the time I finished my recent series, I received an eMail from someone having used many online resources and successfully practicing and enjoying Kriya Yoga. He wrote me "God provides me with exactly the tools I need, when I need them". Then I invited him to share - his reply:

I would be honored to share my story. I will do so later when I have more free time. That reply is very typical and reflects the common attitude of most of the successful spiritual disciples from anywhere, from most spiritual traditions, from any Guru or ashram around the world. As soon as God's love is flowing, as soon as our own marriage is healed and you enjoy a happy sex life, as soon as we are more successful in our business or job, we focus on enjoying the results of our spiritual efforts and forget the Billions of others still searching for solutions of love. We have too much love in life to share and our enjoyment becomes our sole activity forgetting all the unloved ones, hungry for love, starving for love or fighting through divorce because no one told then how to do all that in a loving way. Because Millions forgot to share their own solutions of love.

Meanwhile - after one more eMail - that lucky man started an avalanche of blog articles to share his own life experiences and possibly inspire some others out there having similar or comparable problems in life.

To share your own successful experiences or techniques in life to solve problems of life is like a farmer preparing his fields and soil for a better future harvest. By helping others to be faster more successful you prepare your own future environment as well as the living environment of your own children and future generations!

Keep in mind that we always have choices. Options to chose from. No choice made may result in no action done - resulting in drifting away in the global mess of darkness and temptation of our easy money monkey business society. We have to learn to make right choices at the right time, to correct mistakes immediately as we become aware of and above all we need to learn to act more and more lovingly to achieve our goals.

To be to fail - is too big to exist because too big to be properly managed. Now some governments try to bail out industrial companies to compensate for made mistakes and to hold on to wrong policies in the past. Too big to fail never exists in God's creation. This entire planet as a whole has failed during the Billions of years. Look at the "black holes" out there absorbing entire galaxies ... Too many mistakes results in failure. If humans too selfish to correct then god makes all necessary steps to protect his loving part of creation.

Any failure of economy such as in recent many months is absolute proof of wrong decisions made or even worst of totally wrong industries existing and wrong industries endangering the entire planet.

Anything that is built also can and needs to be dissolved. Good things beneficial for our entire global society without causing any harm to any part, even worms or insects or "weeds" always survive as long as needed. Anything detrimental to our planet of part of our global society always self destroys. The financial collapse is nothing else but self destruction of a totally wrong system. It should have been left to completely collapse and fail or disappear.

Sometimes foreclosure and loss of job is one of the single greatest possible blessings most ever may have in their entire life. Myself I had this very blessing during a long ago divorce with revenging ex-wife taking absolutely all ... Leaving but God and love for me! That time more than 20 years ago was the very beginning of heaven opening ALL doors. Some 5 years later came multiple oneness with God after several years (5,5 years) of most intense Kriya Yoga practice.

The sooner people let go from mistakes, the smaller the "bang" experienced. The more we hang onto mistakes the larger the "bang" when forced to let go from mistakes. All mistakes always will lead to pain, suffering and if uncorrected to self destruction.

Some examples of too large and still failing out of recent global history may be:

• Communism during cold war time
• Caesar and his Roman empire
• Napoleon and his attempt to expand
• Hitler and his attempts to expand
• Capitalism in recent decades
• And several other attempts to reign the world in a wrong way
• Khmer empire - Angkor
• Egyptian era - pyramids
• Inka - Maya cultures in central and south America

Our recent economy collapse is nothing else but the result of a failing wrong attempt to reign, use, exploit and abuse the world in a particular selfish and totally wrong way.

Use this ongoing global crisis to review your own life and make corrections

During our ongoing global crisis, many learn more and learn faster during a few months or years to come, than during decades before. During a time of global crisis, we instantly have a filtering of the weak ones or wrong projects and the strong ones making the right choices.

If you are in any kind of economical or health troubles right now, then correct your life, correct your attitude before your problems are correcting you.

There would have been other ways to learn to love. But selfish oriented humans learn by karma, by experiencing pain and suffering resulting from wrong actions rather than from loving wise advice. The pain or suffering experienced however always is within or less than the pain and suffering caused to others or to the entire planet or creation beyond this very planet. For that reason the current global crisis is a time of blessing as this crisis forces Billions of people to review their values in life and their goals in life.

Google friend connect

Since a few days - I have the new Google friend connect installed on the Cyberspace Ashram for Kriya Yoga start page. Right side, just below the RSS icons. Welcome to join, connect to other readers of the CA, share or exchange experiences. Look at the icons / avatars used by the very first ones - almost all have hearts. That shows that this is a community of loving lovers from the bottom of the heart and soul. A world of lovers - join and wake up your love within to be applied to all world. It's Christmas time every day of your eternal life. Merry Christmas.

How to promote the Cyberspace Ashram - free of charge to you

Create proper links or post small blog articles in your social network community (Myspace, Facebook, Friendster, Hi5, or any other blog or web site you might have) to the Cyberspace Ashram. A comprehensive tutorial on web site promotion in several chapters is online - the ending chapter contains all links to earlier chapters. I certainly do appreciate any and every link from such social network communities and from social bookmark sites or personal blogs. The links however to be of value need to be chosen and placed correctly - hence the need for the tutorial published recently. That tutorial applies to any and every web site you love, enjoy and wish to promote or support in your online activities.

Another important way to support and promote the Cyberspace Ashram and any other web site:

Please use the Alexa toolbar for Internet Explorer or Sparky plugin for Firefox browser. Your page visits in the Cyberspace Ashram then will be counted toward the global Alexa traffic ranking system of web sites. Typically spiritual web sites have surfers / site visitors with far less global interests and thus far below average in use of such Internet tools. We professional web publishers however depend on such data and global Alexa ranking systems as long as we offer free services and need to pay all living and working from advertising revenue. The better the traffic rank, the easier it is to get direct advertising on a site or the more likely AdSense advertisers pay a decent honest bid for their advertising spot on a site.

When all move and act at the same time into same direction - then all solutions of love always succeed. If many however dream and get lost in their own virtual world of problems and self created troubles in life, then often only self-created pain and suffering brings the benefits needed to wake up.

No time to share now your spiritual success recipe ...

Totally out of context - a few quotes of the most recent of several mails back and forth between a person once in some struggle of life and myself. A very typical situation to make you aware of some problems of spiritual success. Someone who apparently has successfully managed to restructure his life after divorce wrote to me a while ago:

• Before the below first quote, there have been multiple emails both ways.
• I am another human who has totally overhauled his life thanks to the CA. I live in an apt. 1/10th the size of my last home. My personal budget minus child/spousal support is also almost 1/10th. I appreciate the freedom, but still am in the transition phase of so many huge changes
• Some eMail advice from me - then his reply some 2 weeks later:
• My love switch is "flipping on" much easier lately:)) Forgiveness and love are coming authentically and magic is manifesting. I'm loving more and reading less. Kriya is much stiller. I even smell better!!! Persistence sure pays. I can see where true insurance is found. ...
• I invited to share - the reply:
• I would be honored to share my story. I will do so later when I have more free time. I finally have that confidence so that I can let go of you and other spiritual books, because God provides me with exactly the tools I need, when I need them. There is less and less room for doubt in my life, as it gets flooded out by the feeling of love. The love light is dim.... but I know how to draw it up and it is growing everyday. I will follow my heart with the kriyas, I just bumped up from seven to eight today (on month 8).

The critical point to consider about sharing now or later is:

Any spiritual progress you make is the result of your own efforts following precise steps. Any uplifting forces that act upon you is the result of your own increased flow of love plus the uplifting forces of those loving ones God sends into and around your life.

Improvement always is the result of active achievements resulting from successful efforts of love. Someone prepared your field of loving activity to reward you for your own efforts. Billions out there are hungry for love, hungry for MORE love. Billions out there may have NO access to the resources some of you have. For example myself I never could repeat to 1% of my Cyberspace Ashram visitors what I eMailed to the one person quoted above. Simply because I am ONE and out there I have 6+ Millions reading / using / surfing my pages. To repeat all over again to 1 or more percent of all 4+ Million surfers of the CA simply would exceed the amount of time available in a single year. Leaving me no time at all to actually earn the money needed to finance the CA. Even less to care, maintain and improve the CA services and servers.

I have invested utmost care, love and efforts in a full lifetime to offer all the really necessary teachings of love to all world to assure all sincere God seekers have ALL to find their way of love home to God without my physical guidance.

Once you get your own beginning of spiritual efforts moving in the right direction, all life around you becomes more loving. Until all life around you falls back into darkness again. Your surrounding is the result of various actions of love - from God, from others, from you. Your today's loving environment has been prepared yesterday by someone else. Your tomorrows environment is the result of your own efforts. The more you share ALL the recipes you applied for your own spiritual progress and improvement in your own life, the more people around you may improve their own life and thus offer you tomorrow a more loving environment.

Your own tomorrow fully or substantially depends on how much of your own success recipes you share today. How many other people are given the same chances to use the same success methods as you were blessed to use.

Your own children's future depends on how much you shared yesterday and today. For most humans it may take many years to really change inside and outside. Your own children may have to live in a totally different environment than your own current neighborhood or town. Hence only God knows where your loved ones will learn, struggle or succeed. But you have today and every single day the option to share anything and everything that helped you on your path to expand the number of successful loves across the planet as fast as possible.

The more and the faster and the more efficiently we share, the faster solutions of love and teachings of love spread around the planet and ultimately always bounce back to us to even further facilitate our own spiritual efforts and loving efforts for a truly spiritual life and return home to God.

Your problem is solved when the solution is published and shared with all

To show you an example of how I use to share non-spiritual success recipes when running totally out of available time may be the few recent blog articles about improving SEO and web site promotion or the recent technical server problems I had to solve all on my own.

Some among YOU do have a web site. Some do have a God and Love oriented web site to share spiritual experiences and spiritually helpful content out of their own family life. Others may have their own business for the benefit of others. Any beneficial work deserves to be promoted with maximum efficiency. Sharing all my own very long time experiences helps others to safe time, reduce frustrating failures and improve or facilitate their own progress.

In order to support publishing and sharing efficiency among the spiritual oriented site owners, I recently published a many pages long series on successful SEO techniques, SEO tools and a motivation to use the power of RSS. This series ended with Anchor text optimization. This set of SEO related blog articles may help you promoting the Cyberspace Ashram as much as it helps you to promote any other site or service you enjoy in your own life and environment as much as it may help you to improve your very own web site promotion.

Another example of problem solving in my own life was the recent server problems encountered. For me a problem is solved when the problem is gone and all running as usual again PLUS when the solution to the problem solving is shared with all world. The latter only really concludes the real problem solving. Hence after many hours of research and problem analysis and final solving of common errors like Fail2ban unused after system update or a more series server error situation the HTTP headers displayed in HTML pages.

I would have been happy just to sit down and relax and enjoy my solutions and servers running fine to refocus on my own work again. However there are others out there who might have or at some moment in time most likely have the very same problem situation and who may save tremendous efforts, time and money when finding a quick solution using Google. It costs me some extra time, some sleepless nights and of course also some real money to share my solutions. However I fully understand our interactions, some people are entangled in their own karma, but all are to some degree depending on other people's contribution to this world. The more we facilitate other people's life, the easier our own spiritual efforts, the more loving our own family life and success in life.

Doing a few hours overtime NOW most likely will help to safe you tremendous efforts, time and money later. Just an example for many among you. More promotion of solutions of love may eventually turn more and more DA and lawyers into lovers and thus may reduce your own bills or punishments or divorce agreements or other legal settlements to your and our all favor ...

To conclude:
When feeling to have NO time now to share what helped you yesterday to enjoy a better life today - think about the possible draw back you may encounter tomorrow or any time later. Think about the possible chain reaction of more and more people turning TODAY into forgiving reconciling lovers. The see if a kick in your own ass to share today what helped you yesterday may offer hidden benefits for your own tomorrow. Else if tomorrow or next year is less loving than today - remember the past days you wanted to share later ... the treasures of love you received from God.

Imagine a world were Millions or ALL could write me "God provides me with exactly the tools I need, when I need them" ... How much easier the life of all others if all others too know your recipe that changed your own life! What a joy in your heart to see more and more happy people around you growing into freedom into a world of love - preparing for their final steps home to God ending with a most loving death - the passage home to God.

Options in life

For any and every situation of life there always are at least two options or choices to chose from:

- the most loving one

Or

- your ego choice

1. The most loving option and most efficient choice and most direct and fastest solution always is a gift of love from God. This is the way all angelmen and angelwomen at home in God's heaven learn forever and ever.
2. Any other choice or solution always needs to be created paid and earned in full by the one rejecting the solution of love given by God.

Wrong choices lead to karma and suffering

Any wrong choice or wrong solution always leads to karma and thus to self created pain and suffering to be solved alone by the one who has made that wrong choice

Become aware of mistakes and correct mistakes

At any given moment in life, when becoming aware of any mistake or wrong choice made, you have the option to correct mistake to avoid karma and thus you always have an opportunity of LOVE to prevent pain and suffering at any given moment in life.

At any given moment or situations in life all people always have the option to chose God and Love as their single favorite choice for life. Thus all mankind always has and always had the option to avoid any kind of damage or pain or suffering or karma. Whatever is in your current life always is the result of your own decisions, your own choices made so far.

Love is the only means to heal anything and everything

• Love is the only means to heal damage done or to dissolve karma created
• Action of love is needed to prove love!
• Words of love require proof by action of love
• Hence healing requires flowing love resulting from actions of love
• With out action NO TRUE LOVE at all!

Work as action of love and proof of love

Good quality honest work is action of love and thus a means to heal pain and suffering or to dissolve karma

Conclusion:
Choices are given to all, to chose the solution of love is the choice of true angel beings. We all have multiple options, more loving choices, less loving decisions and totally wrong choices. We all have a God given heart to FEEL what is right and what is wrong. We all also have a God given common sense to use before making our choices in life and deciding on different options available for a particular situation of life.

The lessons for life help you to improve your actions of love and thus to make your flowing love and actions of love more healing and more powerful. Proper Kriya Yoga gets God's love flowing through your entire soul and body and thus has the power to heal any damage from any cause and ancient or current incarnations. Part of proper Kriya Yoga is the complete teachings of love for all situations in life.

To finalize this series - a few last examples and help to figure out the best possible anchor texts for your links.

You may want to read all relevant previous topics for a comprehensive understanding of this rather complex topic of search engine optimization and link building tutorial:

1. time of love to share your expertise
2. How to achieve top 10 rankings in Google
3. Improve your family business by increasing SEO efficiency
4. The power of RSS feeds to promote your fresh content
5. Learn SEO skills yourself
6. SEO Tools for quality control
7. Search engine optimization
8. Search engine rankings wrong for your own site

Anchor texts irrelevant to a sites near top positions in search engines are of no value at all. You should choose either a keyword combination from the official page title or any keyword combination that brings that particular page into the top 20-30 positions. Then and only then your additional link may make a difference and help the targeted page.

Here are two ways of anchor text selection:

1. One possibility for the site owner
2. Another possibility for site users wishing to create links to the site of their heart

How to find ideal anchor texts by foreign site users

So you like or even love a particular site and wish to refer to that site within your blog or within a content page. First of all, try to integrate a natural piece of text into your phrase that fits your own content as well as offers an opportunity to link to an authority site or friend site without interfering with your editorial style.

You have a topic in mind about which you are writing in your blog or social network blog. You also know which site you would love to refer to. In this case you may chose a few keywords from your own edited text and use Google's site-search feature. I explain the use of a google search within a specific website (site:)

With the "site:" feature you can search your keyword combination or part of an entire keyphrase for a best match on any particular site. I give you a precise example. In the following phrase I want to integrate 2 links to the Cyberspace Ashram www.kriyayoga.com:

If you want to loose your fear of death, you will have to understand that death as door to God obviously must be a door to a world of love. To learn about God requires to learn about death.

We have 2 keyword combination we want to link to a friend or authority site:

1. death as door to God
2. learn about death

This 2 keyword combinations can now be used to find the best matching page on our friend site using the following Google search syntax:

• death as door to God site:kriyayoga.com
• learn about death site:kriyayoga.com

This search restricts Google to only search the web site following the "site:". In this case my own site. YES, I also use this search syntax on my own site to promote individual pages when I know to have several pages about an important topic and want Google to speed up my own editorial work and give me an instant list of known pages relevant to the keywords I want to use inside my new text.

Learn to use the full functionalities and features of Google search - explore Google search to save time and get more accurate results. There is much more than than. Every now and then you may wish to spend a few minutes to study Google and learn about new services and features offered.

Finding anchor texts by the site owners

Look at your access_log statistics, section keywords. The see what keyword combinations are important to you. Google on a virgin browser, cache and cookies empties, logout from Google if Google toolbar installed!

The search the keyword combinations of interest to you. For anchor texts choose those keywords of interest to you - and - use the keyword combination giving the highest results if you want to stabilize a high ( top 10 ) SERPS. Or - use a keyword combination that is frequently used but leads to a lower SERPS you wish to improve for that keyword combination.

Example:

One of my worst pages on the site topic is Learn Kriya Yoga online. The official title resulting well, but on a keyword variation Kriya Yoga technique being a little behind. Hence instead of repeating too often an anchor text of Learn Kriya Yoga online, it is more beneficial to add now and then an anchor text with the weaker combination if that keyword combination is used by actual search engine users. Note that it makes absolutely no sense at all to rank high in keyword combinations no one ever is using. To guide users toward your page you need to research user trends and focus on precisely those keywords that attract high generic traffic.

Take some time to learn your trade. If you are but an Internet user, then consider the Trillions of dollars invested in the wealth of information, tutorials and online entertainment you enjoy for free. Considering that fact and the Trillions of man hours invested to serve you may show you that a few minutes now then or even an hour of your time on a weekly or monthly basis may be a very modest contribution of you to share the burden of free online services. We all only can get as much as we give. To continue to enjoy free online services that someone else - the site owners - create with hundred thousands of dollars investment or more - may certainly justify our all contribution of a little work now and then to promote the services we love or need in our daily life.

How can anyone guarantee a top 10 ranking in Google ? You may ask. One of the several tools I use for quality control and web site promotion is the IBP business most small site owners however would get amazing results with the IBP standard version. The only difference is the total number of pages or projects you can control, manage and optimize without deleting valuable data.

There are many companies that promise similar rankings. Most without money back guarantee. The key point is:

Whatever in life you do, if you do ALL, do all correctly and do all to utmost perfection and to the very best of most current knowledge and technology, then you always succeed! No matter what business, including web site promotion and SEO ( Search Engine Optimization ).

Why are top 10 rankings important?

Top 10 ranked pages bring generic traffic. Anything between 10-20 brings some left over traffic. Anything worst than a top 20 ranking is just for hobby! Either you mean business and do all necessary steps to become a top 10 site in a high traffic keyword combination or you may review the values in your life and possibly change your business topics to find a market you truly love and can do with all your heart and soul.

Hence if your business really is your family business and loved content of your life, then your top 10 ranked web site might very substantially help your business success. Web site promotion is an efficient and cost effective way to be available to potential customers.

How can you achieve a top SERPS in Google or other major SE?

Anyone can achieve top 10 rankings if he follows all known quality criteria that matter for search engine rankings of sites and / or pages. Hence if you are a perfect site creator, maintain fully validated HTML pages, always have the perfect keyword density on each page, have sufficient number of backlinks to your pages or site, and meet all other quality factors, etc. Then you have all it needs to become a top 10 site or page. To achieve a top ranking on a keyword is no real secret, but it is real work requiring real efforts from you - the site owner, the business owner. never expect others to give their peace of mind for your business or to sacrifice their nights for your business success. Even if you offer a few ten thousand dollars. Why should anyone invest more efforts into your own business success than you the owner and main beneficiary of your business venture. You and if you have a family business, then your entire family alone are responsible to do all the work, to spend hundreds of sleepless nights and thousands of hours studying the market, the search engines, the HTML page design, etc!

Some quality requirements for top 10 positions

Let's see what for example IBP requires or offers for a top 10 ranking. There are a large number of quality control automatism built in. Backlink control, keyword density, keywords in H+, H2, H3, B, anchor, description meta, keywords meta, title meta, alt, ... and many other most important factors.

For true final success to be ranked top 10 or top 3 among Millions, dozens of Millions or more competing pages you need to do ALL 100% perfect - all at the same time. If you are lazy = stingy in your efforts or want to do only as little as necessary to achieve a top result NOW. Then in a few months you may be displaced and dropped out of the top 10 SERPS.

In this most recent SEO series I gave you ONE tool - your own creative mind PLUS a few exercises - to find the most accurate SEO factors to be top over an extended period of time. You just have to follow those steps and invest whatever time and efforts needed. You do all efforts for your own web site or web promotion of your business. Hence any effort necessary should be acceptable and feasible for you.

The reason why IBP developers offer a money back guarantee if you fail to achieve a top 10 ranking is contained within their below quoted statement:

In the last step, you change your web page according to the suggestions of IBP's Top 10 Optimizer until there are no further suggestions (IBP's Top 10 Optimizer gives your site a 100% rating).

There are factors that apparently matter to Google and other major search engines that are known to professionals and other factors may successfully be guessed. The easiest way to figure out what quality criteria matter to a search engine might be if you think yourself into owning and controlling that particular search engine and you would be in charge of providing rue top quality results to your search engine users!

Some of the quality factors that help a search engine to assess the true hidden quality factors of a web site are or might be AMONG OTHERS:

• Age of a web site. How old is a web site ? - the older or the longer you are in business the more likely you mean it serious with your web site promoted business and the more efforts you have invested into your web site. Web site age is public data and can be verified. If your site is among the oldest or the oldest on a particular keyword = that means you are a true pioneer and leader and most or possibly all others are but followers / copiers of your idea.
• How long in advance is your domain paid. If you have your domain name paid many years inn advance, that means: You are committed and you are financially healthy enough to afford commitment into the far future. Such data are public and can be verified.
• Page load time. How fast are your pages loading. The faster your server = the higher the server quality. A site owner who affords high quality or top end technology shows commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. page load time is available publicly and can be measured individually.
• Does your web site have its own dedicated server with its own dedicated IP. Only top sites run their own server and have one or several dedicated IPs. For example: The Cyberspace Ashram runs on 3 dedicated root servers, own mail servers and own name servers. I give and gave my entire life and temporarily my home in God for the creation of the Cyberspace Ashram. I would be ill minded to save on a few thousand dollars and a few thousand hours extra work running such a life project on cheap servers. Whatever business you do - should be worth your entire life, love and devotion beyond this one tiny lifetime on earth.
• How many backlinks do you have pointing to your site? There are link farms - of course known to Google. backlinks from such link farms may have little or no value at all to major search engines. There are authority sites and quality directories or quality blogs - that add real value when linking to you!
• Your overall site-wide keyword density and site topic. What is the overall topic of your site. How many hundred or thousands or ten thousands of pages do you have on your web site? Is the main topic of your site also contained within the domain name? That would proof that you had a real plan and invested some in depth thoughts when starting your web site or web based business promotion. If you run a web site on free hosting and write about everything expensive on the Google AdSense market, then all world knows that your site is nothing but a hobby MFA (Made For Adsense) site of no real value at all to this or any other world. Hence you may invest whatever and still get no or tiny web traffic compared to professional content sites or businesses living and working in that niche or market.
• Domain name TLD. If you are a little publisher with a .org or .net web site. The the major SE soon find out that you have but a dramatically overblown ego wanting to appear as an organization (.org) or network of experts (.net) rather than as a tiny nobody hobby site. If you want to reach the world, then you never would get a .de or .us or .cn TLD but a .com or similar TLD of global value.
• What is the keyword density within a page. Within each and every page of your entire site. Do you have and maintain a professional editorial style and keyword density or are you attempting to keyword stuffing. With the integration of semantics technology by Google in recent years and possibly also by other major SE, the overall relationship of different words and phrases on your entire site may be more and more analyzed and integrated into the final SERPS and quality factors of your entire site as well as your individual pages.
• Are real authority sites = .gov, .edu and similar linking to you? That would mean you are an authority for authorities ... a leader.
• There certainly are many other quality factors considered by major search engines to compute your SERPS. Above are but an example and I will emphasize on a few points further below.

If you do ALL steps known for successful top 10 rankings, then you most likely get a top 10 ranking. There are people or companies who know most or nearly all important criteria of web site optimization and have integrated such criteria-control mechanism into their software. Such as IPB for example. Some of these criteria never can be met however - for a good and valid reason. For example if in a particular market all top 10 ranking sites are 8-10 years old and you just started your similar site a year ago. You never can meet the quality criteria of web site age! The fact that many OTHER sites with same or similar keywords in domain name and domain title or web page title exist will eternally mark you as a copier or follower. That is poor habit to copy others just because some of them might be rich or successful. To be a copier never can nor should ever be rewarded. If however you have a brand new web site / domain name and find a totally new niche for you, then even with a brand new web site of a few months old you will be a pioneer and leader for all future to come. All you need to do is to attract sufficient generic interest resulting in generic traffic and you will have your success.

Another criteria to be met is backlinks. There are very popular sites with hundred thousands of backlinks from across the planet. If in a particular niche all top 10 sites have thousands or more backlinks, then you too are required to have that or greater number of backlinks to get into top 10 SERPS or you may get lucky and enter the top 10 ranks if ALL or most top ten sites maintain substantial mistakes in on-page SEO. I wrote about on page SEO in a recent article.

In a market of 1'000'000 competing pages to get a top 10 ranking means that you have to be better than 999'990 other pages / site owners. Are you really willing to invest more efforts and acquire more expertise than dozens of Millions of other site owners / page creators? There are many niches with hundreds of Millions of competing pages. To be top 10 site you need also to be quality wise top 10 to acquire a spiritually justified top 10 position! Else you would be pretending and thus fooling your site visitors. Strive for top positions ONLY if you are willing to strive for top quality in your market or industry.

As you see, to be or become a top 10 site in any field requires lots more than a few thousand dollars. To be top ranked you need to be top devoted to your job, work and family. Only true love can provide the power needed to perform top all the way over an extended period of time. Hence time will tell if you truly mean what you currently pretend to be or want to be - top. Keep in mind that every single day there might be more other new sites joining your own ranks of follower or pioneer. If you are a pioneer, then people try to hunt you down by all means - including attempts to buy your web site. To become a top 10 site is one tiny part of web publishing. To remain over any period of time top 10 only shows if you are devoted with all your body, heart and soul.

Backlinks from blogs or social network blogs may be an important key factor in your SERPS - hence time to start building your own by making a Christmas gift of links to others. Remember: The most valuable links are those one way links coming from the bottom of your heart. If you create no backlinks to other valuable sites and resources you have enjoyed in your life, then never expect anyone to show gratitude toward you as well. Read my little how to increase SEO efficiency and backlinks using social network blogs and start right now toward achieving a top 10 ranking in Google by supporting others doing so. Amidst a strong neighborhood it is far more enjoyable to live and far easier to succeed as well in any honest business.

Love and Bliss

Christmas lessons for a better future of all

Web site promotion examples to improve our friends business

The following are examples of how you can use a social network blog to support your family business or help your neighbors' business for a stronger future and happier life. It is Christmas time for all world.

When writing in social network blogs or in your own web site blog, get the habit to integrate links to relevant chapters, pages or web sites into your texts. Learn to show loving gratitude toward all those who provide services or products for your own daily life by recommending their web services or web sites. There are a few rules to make such free but most efficient recommendations and web site promotions valuable and powerful.

Christmas time - example:

Please enjoy the beautiful Christmas wallpapers in standard format or Christmas widescreen wallpapers, or the new series of beautiful 1080p Christmas wallpapers available now from the Cyberspace Ashram for Kriya Yoga, God and Love. Enjoy the beauty of God's love reflected in the beauty of God's entire creation. Enjoy the beautiful nature pictures to remind you of true and true values of life that make our life worthy to live.

Christmas love should flow all year long because God made us to his image and that means God made us to love and to be loved. Prepare for your eternal life with Christmas love all year long and start here and now on earth. There is no loving later until you create a loving NOW. Christmas gifts of love can be made any time, any place to any person who needs love or a gift of love.

Christmas always starts in our hearts. Without true love no real Christmas feelings. For most among us that means to reconcile, to remember the true romantic love we once had toward our partner and to refresh love between husband and wife.

Did you ever look for Christmas gifts for adopted children? Then dig even deeper in your heart and ask yourself why your child still is considered "adopted" child rather than child!? Children above all need love. Happy children are children who receive your true love all year long, instead of a mountain of plastic toys at Christmas. Give freedom, guide and be a positive example for your children. Remember what you missed as a small kid and give all that and much more. Above all learn to fulfill wishes. Ask and grant wishes and fulfill them all - from the bottom of your heart and soul.

Let's have a look at above Christmas example from the SEO or web site promotion point of view.

If you blog, then there are two ways:

1. Publish original content - hence use your blog as a media to publish, to reach out, to teach, to share, to help, to inform. Most of the Cyberspace Ashram's Blog Secrets of Love - Solutions of Love is of that type.
2. Promote existing articles or pages on own or other web site. Announce new chapters or new web site sections or major changes. Social network blogs or free hosted blogs such as this one here are ideal for such promotion.

A blog on your own web site above all should be used for all the valuable content you have to share. Keep all values under your own direct control. Strictly avoid sharing valuable content on free hosted blog sites or social network blogs. Your account on free blog accounts may be censured, or worst deleted and all your time consuming publishing may get lost any time. Values are there to be shared, hence the valuable content needs to be protected and cared for by you on your own web site or blog.

Above example has a tutorial purpose but at the same time also a practical value. It is Christmas time and I do promote my important pages. Why? Because I gave my life and ten thousands of hours work to create that content. Hence it is made to reach out to the hearts and souls of mankind and open hearts to create or heal marriages and relationships among all beings.

You would want to do the veery same with your own web site or family business. You may have given decades of your life to save the money, to invest and to build up all your business. Once a business is up and running you need to let the world know where you are and what you offer to this world.

Hence NEVER publish just for fun any bla bla or gossip. Web space is real space and needs to be used with utmost care and love. Use every article you write to publish help, useful information or to promote other people's help or quality services.

If you have a family business, then you most likely have family members living from that family business income. If so then have your family members help you promoting your family business by writing blog posts on their own social network blogs about your location, business and services. Learn all together to publish on a regular basis. Write about all your neighborhood or even your entire country. Work as a family team, help each other to learn, to practice and to grow together! The younger family members - teenagers or older - may have more social network experience or computer skills, the older generation of parents may have more business knowledge and life experience to be shared in blogs or on your web site. Together as a family with joint knowledge, joint forces and joint hearts every family always is strong. In addition you may have true friends willing to share and help you to learn and do all the necessary work on your own. Never ask others to do all that for you but ask others to help you to learn to do your job yourself.

Keep in mind: If you ask others to do your job, what are you doing for your own life and who is doing the job others may miss while doing your work? We all have the right to ask others for emergency help or help to teach us become grown up members of God's family. We all have a divine duty to learn to do our own work all on our own. Hence we need to learn to stay well within our own limits of skills, knowledge and work potential when opening and expanding a family business. We strictly should avoid becoming dependent on others.

One such example may be my own promotion of the country I have the pleasure to be a guest since end of 2000 - the beautiful Philippine islands. There are many reasons why I love the Philippines or more precisely to loving and smiling people of the Philippines. Filipino people have a far above average love for God and thus also the longest Christmas season I know on this planet. Christmas season in the Philippines starts soon after Mother's day. Playing Christmas songs in summer time every now and then. Playing Christmas movies even in summertime. And the final Christmas preparation starts late September or latest very early October with true Christmas decor being sold in all major malls and shops and displayed all over the beautiful island paradise.

Back to your own business and web promotion. You only can be successful in your own business if you ...

• love what you do
• can do with all your heart and soul what you do
• love the location you live and work
• love the country and its culture you do business and work
• all your work creates but benefits, relief and incentive for all mankind, all nature, all creation and all potential customers without causing any harm to anyone at all.

How to procede now for your own blogging activities NOW this very moment? Sit down, think about a topic you love, a service or product you needed badly and that helped your own work. Or think about the true values you have to offer to the world. Then write a few short paragraphs about the topic of your choice, integrate links and post it on one of the social network blogs or free blogging accounts you have created after my previous lesson.

Christmas time is a time to make gifts. Gifts of love to show our gratitude for all the wealth of help and valuable resources others provided for our own life and business. Hence the best is you start writing a blog article about any other service you enjoyed in your life. You may have a blog article including several resources and thus linking to several precise resources / pages or you may pick one by one. That is up to you.

Here now the most important part of your blogging as a means of web site promotion. When ever you integrate a link into your text, you need to use the correct anchor text. Anchor text is the text used for the link to click on. The one or few words used as anchor text are vital for the value of the linked to page or web site. The anchor text ideally always contains either:

1. the official page title of the linked page
2. part of the official title of the linked page
3. one or a few selected keywords out of the official title of the page you link to
4. one or a few selected keywords out of the official title of the page you link to PLUS a veery few additional keywords of your choice fitting into a human readable phrase

An anchor text should strictly be limited to any of above 4 options. Totally wrong are anchor text like:

• click here to find more information
• click here
• here
• my father's business
• my mothers restaurant
• my kids hotel
• my father
• my mother
• ... etc
• unless of course the page contains such a precise main title

The anchor text of a link to a web site or web page improves dramatically the SERPS for that particular page. If and only if the anchor text meets any of above criteria 1-4. A few dozen blogs writing about you or a particular page or your main site and using any of criteria 1-4 above as anchor texts may stabilize your current SERPS or bring you closer to page one or even #1 SERPS. Often current top 10 positions are occupied by web sites having hundreds or thousands or more links to that particular page from all across the www and above all from valuable web sites of good reputation.

Let's have a closer look at choosing anchor texts to assure you create value backlinks to your site as well as to other sites you wish to support.

In my Christmas time - example I chose anchor texts like: In some of the below listed anchor texts used for above example blog post, I use variations of the official title. Many people sometimes search beautiful xyz. Hence if your title xyz and no where beautiful in your text or backlinks, your SERPS may suffer. If however you add several backlinks with the beautiful, your SERPS may improve over time.

If you click the above links and see the exact page title and compare with the anchor texts in use as listed below. Then you may get a pretty good idea how much or how little you can vary and still achieve an improvement in SERPS for a particular keyword combination or keyword variation typically used by surfers. Only use keywords in anchor texts that are actually used by search engine users. Check your access_log data to see what keyword combinations are successful to find your site. Use Google Trends to compare different keyword-popularities!

1. beautiful Christmas wallpapers
2. Christmas widescreen wallpapers
3. beautiful 1080p Christmas wallpapers
4. Cyberspace Ashram for Kriya Yoga, God and Love = here for example I love to get good rankings for multiple keyword combinations. Each one is useful alone: Cyberspace Ashram + Kriya Yoga + God and Love. All rankings for each individual combination needs improvement.
5. God's love
6. beautiful nature pictures
7. true values of life
8. Christmas love
9. Christmas love all year long
10. Christmas gifts of love
11. hearts
12. refresh love between husband and wife
13. Christmas gifts for adopted children
14. Happy children are children who receive your true love

When writing a blog article, you may either prepare your entire text including links on your offline HTML editor of your choice. My HTML editor since many years is Quanta Plus - a default web developper tool included in my openSUSE Linux package. Or - you may use any of the rich text editors (HTML-editors) most social network blogs offer.

If you are short in time and still want to blog about your site, your services or another web site, then you may practice a brief mini blog article 2-3 sentences with 2 links to inner pages of a site and a final link to the web site start page. Since the site owner ( you ) has made some deep thinking before choosing his domain name, it always is a good idea to support the web site index page ( start page ) in addition to one or several chapters or services from inner pages.

I show you a few examples:

1. Related to the Cyberspace Ashram:

Enjoy beautiful nature pictures and exotic lotus flowers from tropical Philippine islands and Cambodia - all free services from the Cyberspace Ashram for Kriya Yoga.

2. Another site - all in life is about ... love and happiness

Read and benefit from experiences in solving marriage problems through miracles of love, the healing power of my husband's love resulting in marriage healing counseling and a bunch of other most loving spiritual experiences on the way to a happy life by a happy husband wife team.

As you see in above 2 short examples. It may take but a few lines to start web site promotion or to add some value to OTHER web sites. A few more lines would be better and once you started typing, you certainly may have a few more phrases and experiences or data to share. You may give color to your blog article by adding pictures. Take a good pocket camera and collect pictures from the neighborhood, your business and region you do business.

A word of caution about the quality of sites you link to

You have no influence about sites linking to you, therefore you can receive no penalty by search engines for getting links from low quality sites. However you alone are responsible for the links to sites you link to. If you link and write about low quality sites, then you are considered to have a bad neighborhood. Bad neighborhood reduces the value of your own site and therefore may have an impact on your site value, SERPS and PR.

As a general recommendation: Avoid linking to young sites that exist only for a few years. My experience has shown that young ones change their site, their topic or domain name as older ones change T-shirts. Many young web sites come and go and your links may disappear or become death links. Like in business, be picky, select partners with integrity and stability. Link to old sites - may be 5 or more years old. Link to sites with real content and fresh content. Avoid linking to sites death since years without maintenance. Link to sites with a minimum traffic amount - for example Alexa rank 100'000 or better. That may be an indicator of a natural popularity of the site.

Link to quality sites - link to quality businesses and be yourself a quality business

Link to quality sites, link to authority sites and strive to become an authority site yourself. Be a leader, a living example for your family and neighborhood as well as for younger future generations. There may be no need to be the veery best, but there definitely and absolutely is a need to be among the front row of your industry and to act as a living example for your culture and country. No matter what your business - pizzeria, garden center or carpenter - acquire qualification and strive for high end quality and reliability in all you do. Then surround yourself with similar attitude neighbors and business partners to build a strong, loving community that serves as a basis for future stability and peace in your own neighborhood and country. Every culture, every country on this planet is but an accumulation of a large number of individuals forming loving families who unite to loving neighborhoods. The basis of every culture and God's entire creation is husband wife. Make sure you act as a family, maintaining a family business - together with possible children of compatible interests. Help each other in a loving way. Give and enjoy freedom to experience and venture - but be there for each other when you need to join forces. Joint forces of entire families are specially needed in our current ongoing global economy crisis. Reduce expense, reduce your lifestyle to a humble and simple but happy level and focus on increased quality and increase the amount of own efforts and love invested into your own career and family business.

Success never is a matter of money invested but of love and efforts invested into the right choice of activity!

Merry Christmas starts today with your own efforts to help each other and refine and increase your skills and efforts.

Love and Bliss

This is the conclusive SEO article of the recently started series. To fully benefit from this article you may first want to read the preceding SEO articles about tools and keyword density considerations for best SERPS in major search engines.

Please read and use the tips and tools from preparatory articles:

• Search engine optimization - improve SEO to achieve better search engine rankings
• SEO Tools for quality control and increased traffic
• Learn SEO skills to improve search engine optimization
• SEO and web publishing - all previous Blog articles

Introduction to the SEO tools and SEO technologies of this article

The best way to explain you what tools to use might be when I introduce you to the tools I use. Doing full time web publishing since 12+ years results in a fortune of skills and experiences accumulated. You may be sure that offering free online services and free content to more than 6 Million people per year does require highest efficiency. Hence I focus ever since I started the Cyberspace Ashram for Kriya Yoga, God and Love web site in 1997 to use the best and most efficient high end, high tech tools available. To offer free content never means to use free tools but to use BEST tools no matter the price !!!

If you want to use strictly free tools or cheap tools, then you are on a road to failure in your business or online business. No matter how large or small a business or online project is, the goal always should be a family supporting revenue. Hence you need to achieve real revenue and thus need to make real investment.

Project your goal, write down your intended or achieved annual gross revenue of your online promoted business. The take a reasonable percentage out of that gross amount and invest that percentage into business promotion and site traffic generation. In early business years or at least the first business year, a 8% amount of your annual gross revenue is reasonable to invest inn overall business promotion. In later years starting second year - a 6% amount of your gross annual revenue is appropriate. Keep your advertising and promotional expenses within those limits or below !

Google and other major search engines and web site traffic sources may become your best business friends. I will emphasis and focus on FREE site traffic achieved by YOUR own sweat and efforts to improve yourself your site rankings to bring more generic site traffic converted by you into a reasonable, honest and healthy revenue to support your family and secure progress of your business.

Site traffic depends on SERPS - search engine ranking positions

To get real traffic you need to be on page 1 of a search engine, else your traffic rarely will allow you to survive or even prosper and grow in business. Only extreme high traffic keywords may result in some substantial traffic for search results on page 2.

Hence we have to get our business on page 1 with as many different web site pages as possible. To achieve that goal we need to optimize our editing skills as mentioned in earlier chapters. We also need to submit all new pages to all major search engines as well as to a number of minor search engines. The minor search engines may bring zero traffic but a sufficient number of additional instant backlinks to get noticed by Google and all other major search engines.

To further improve our SERPS we need to get additional backlinks through properly edited and formated RSS feeds showing backlinks to our own pages.

The final part of web site promotion is done by additional link building. I strictly recommend to stay away from any reciprocal link exchange, from link farming, from link building programs, etc. Create generic one way backlinks using following additional methods NOT yet mentioned in the earlier chapters of this series on SEO:

1. Directory submission
2. Social bookmark sites
3. Blogs on social network sites

Directory submission using automated, semi-automated and manual submission. Later more on automated directory submission.

Social bookmarks

Social bookmarks - look at the AddThis widget I have on most of my pages just below the Google AdSense advertisements top of pages. That AddThis widget is a tool to help speedy submission your own pages to various social bookmark sites, facebook, myspace, etc. Just do the following steps one by one before continuing to read on. Later I refer to practical steps and expect you to instantly do your homework else you waste your valuable time just reading without doing.

Social network blogs and social network profile pages

Social network blogs and social network profile pages: When registering with at least a FEW social networks such as myspace, linkedin.com, facebook, profiles.yahoo.com, spaces.live.com, google.com/profiles, blogspot.com, etc. Create / register your accounts in at least 5-10 major social network sites. Later you may submit bookmarks to those sites as well as updates about your business or use blogs from social network sites to blog about your business web site and business activities. The more blogs write about your business or web site, the more Google and other major SE will visit you. In addition your SERPS for pages directly linked in social bookmarks and social network sites will steadily go UP as your popularity increases among bloggers. Later in another blog post more on bloggers from within your own family!

Get started and prepare your PC for web site promotion work NOW

1. Get and install Firefox browser on your laptop or PC you use to maintain your web site or to surf the web!
2. Get AddThis for Firfox
3. Get Web Developer toolbar for Firefox
4. Have a look at all available Add-ons for Firefox to see what else might suit your needs and interests!

Make a break - take a coffee or tea or go on a short walk!

Then we proceed with the most boring yet most important part of site promotion's next step. You need to be clean in mind and well rested for boring jobs of registering your own profile. make this next step when you have at least several hours peaceful time to start all registration and finish all at once.

Now that you are ready, look at my above listed "Social network blogs and social network profile pages" and either register using the AddThis button or search the site by Google. Register an account. Most such social bookmark sites or social network sites require email verification and ask for a bunch of details. Do it - do it all and do it right or LEAVE it all!

There are many profile pages - such as Google profile, Digg.com profile and many others that allow you to introduce yourself, your life, your business, your work, your hobbies and your WEB SITE, blog or even to add your RSS feeds!! Do it - do it ALL - or leave all and start crying like a baby when your business goes downhill into bankruptcy.

But when you later fail after having done only part of all, then you never can blame me nor anyone else but YOU for having failed to do a complete job from the very beginning!

This profile creation for ALL above listed social network sites and bookmark sites may take a day or even more ... Just do it! NOW!

To do all the profile registration process and profile data inclusion of all your details, I recommend you create a text file on your computer. Have all different data ready for copy and paste. Have introduction texts ready, have links in valid HTML 4.01 AND XHTML 1.0 ready. Both are needed because some web sites have HTML 4.01 others have XHTML code. YOU will be polite enough to provide ALL your code, links and HTML formatted text in the version of the SITE you enter your data. It is your basic duty TO KNOW basic HTML and KNOW how to figure out what HTML / XHTML version your social network or bookmark site uses for your profile. If no other help, use Firefox Ctrl+U - look at the source code 1st line that should tell you the DOCTYPE html version - on line ONE of the source code ! Your self introduction text will be properly formated by YOU to meed those requirements. Make sure you have validated text when you copy and paste code text into your profile pages or blog pages on social network blogs.

If you are a professional web publisher, then you most likely have Linux installed - as only or dual boot. Use Quanta Plus to create your HTML / XHTML code and validate all before copy/pasting into your remote hosted social network blogs and profile pages.

Every profile page or social network blog that allows HTML formatted text thus gives you a free opportunity to self-create backlinks to pages of your choice which anchor texts of your choice to promote your business. Use this free opportunity in full. You will get real generic visitors if properly done in addition to the benefits of having backlinks to your own web site.

Most of the social network blogs have the option of creating your own short URL. Never use your name as your blog name or URL name unless you are selling yourself or unless that blog offers no other options. When ever a social network blog offers you a choice of short URL, then use the main keywords of your web site or business as short URL. That FURTHER HELPS YOUR SEO EFFORTS! Example my profile on Microsoft's spaces.live.com is godlovenature.spaces.live.com. Since my site is about God and love and nature as a reflection of God's love for us, I create profile or social blog URLs accordingly. Links from sites with same keyword and same content as your own site are more valuable than links from totally irrelevant sites.

Most of the social network blogs have an RSS feed to "subscribe" to the blog. use this RSS feed to PING all RSS directories as well as all 3 major SE. Best / most time efficient method to ping is to use RSS Submit tool installed on your PC. Have blog RSS feeds added to the tool and ping all by double clicking a particular RSS feed when ever you add a blog article to that particular blog.

If any of the social network offers "groups" - then search for groups of your own industry or web site topic. Become member of that group. get involved a little in group discussions. Answer questions, share your expertise. Submit / share matching pages with that group if appropriate when ever you submit a new page to a particular social network or social bookmark site with groups.

If you want to have a strong business, then you also need to promote OTHER people's business or site on a regular basis. No one can be strong in business if all his customers go bankruptcy! Makes sense to me and to you as well! Hence we love to earn and have a happy life = we also contribute to other people's revenue and happy life! Bookmark other sites that helped YOU. Blog about other sites that had helpful content for you or provided helpful services or information for you or your business. If you want to have a strong business - then you have to create a strong business community around you. In your region or country.

Example:

If you are in the tourist industry. As a hotel or dive resort. Then you have to promote ALL your village, region, country. All activities, sightseeing tours, fie restaurants, bars, night life, nature, possible excursion destinations, culture, etc of your neighborhood. Keep in mind that all customers may come with friends, family, children or in a group or on business trip. There are different people in one family. All having some similar but also totally different interests. If you provide as much information as possible then you possibly provice sufficient information for a complete and instant booking or reservation at your facility. If information about your neighborhood and social life missing, then potential customers may have to surf else where or Google and eventually end up on another site offering same or similar than your services.

Hence, provide a complete and detailed package of information about your own services and products as well as as much information around your own business, location, maps, etc. Provide online published answers to all possible questions before asked. Provide links to answers or pictures on other sites if you have missing details on your own site.

Registration and profile creation completed - what now?

Directory submission

Above part of social bookmarks and social network blogs create flexible backlinks and even real generic traffic to your web site. The blogs are ideal to create backlinks to inner pages or by using new creative anchor text variations.

Directory submission normally are limited in most cases to the domain start page and often also to the official title of your web site start page.

Directory submission can be split into several parts.

I use automated submission using DigiXMAS Submitter full version, semi automated submission using Directory submitter 3.0 full version, IBP business ( I started with IBP free trial, then moved within days to IBP Standard and noticed that the Cyberspace Ashram is far too large and needs the IBP Business for some 500 US$. So I use since about 2 years IBP Business - for quality control of pages, for detailed keyword density control of my pages, for fully automated submission to a small number of approximately 100 smaller search engines and directories for instant backlinks. In addition I use RSS Submitter and Blog Blaster. These are all tools I currently use. I have tried several other submission and ping tools and all others dropped out. The good ones a.m. remain in use on a regular basis. Each one has its strength and is used exactly for that. Hence I use for example 2 directory submission tools - both commercial fully paid version - both for ONE important part of my total submission needs. DigiXMAS Submitter or automated submission of domain start page. Directory submitter 3.0 for submission to international NON-English directories and deep links. Directory submitter 3.0 is no longer properly maintained and no further development made. The NON English - Latin 1 characters create crashes of the backlink software. Avoid backlinks and avoid French or Spanish special characters. Then Directory submitter 3.0 does an excellent job for semi-automated efficient submissions and submissions to self created directory lists.

There are tools and a limited number of quality directories that are suitable for individual but automated submission. The tool I use very successfully for automated submission is DigiXMAS Submitter. The free trial version has 150 low PR directories for testing. The full version has some 2000 quality directories. This tool offers a decaptcher plugin for some 10 US$ you can automatically decaptcher the captcha code to speed up your directory submission. The decaptcher service works in about 90 or so percent. That is an incredible convenience and time saver wen well worth the price!

Typically a well maintained automated or semi automated directory submission tool offers you the possibility to create alternative titles, descriptions and keywords. That will result in links having randomized combinations of title and descriptions to increase value of your backlinks. Make at least several such site profiles. Then auto-submit and make manual adjustments where needed.

The DigiXMAS Submitter has self learning capability built in. The more directories you submit and the more precise your category-corrections where needed, the sooner DigiXMAS Submitter may make almost all submissions fully automated. Some remaining directory errors, no categories found, code invalid ( captcha invalid ) may require manual correction of removal of that directory for future time savings.

In an ideal situation of a small business such as a restaurant or hotel or similar, you may have some 5-10 totally different pages. That would ideally be optimized by IBP Standard which offers 5 projects. A project actually being ONE individual optimized page. Normally most business tend to optimize and submit only the domain start page. My recommendation however is to use each and every single HTML page as a possible entry page to find your web site and your services / products via quality search engines! Why ? Very simple. Many millions of people and potential customers may have totally different needs and priorities when searching. By using every single page of your business web site as a fully optimized entry page with its own keywords and precise topic you can reach out to more people finding you than if you have only ONE single page. Hence I realized for example that the 5 pages IBP Standard offers was ideal for a business with 5 totally different pages. My site has MANY totally different major sections. Today for example - on a single day access statistic of a low traffic weekend day, I have 2528 Total Entry Pages used by site visitors. ON a monthly average that number of entry pages is many times larger.

That number of 2528 Total Entry Pages means I have "somehow" optimized at least 2525 different pages in the Cyberspace Ashram to be found by potential site visitors. You will do the very same!

Example you have a restaurant

Example you have a restaurant in Montreal with Chinese food. Then you may have several pages. Example your restaurant with location, with prices and online menu. Most likely you offer take out and may be even party service to your customers.

Hence you have pages that could look like:

• your business main page = Chinese gourmet restaurant
• take out Chinese food - home delivery Chinese food - 24/7 - day and night
• party service Chinese, Asian and oriental food
• online menu with prices and pictures
• location = needed when someone for example may search restaurant Montreal south

Example you have a hotel in Siem Reap

YES, you guess right, THIS example is aimed at a particular family and more precisely at all the girls and wife of the owner. I have been asked to do, I agreed to teach them to do! Here we start:

• Hotel Siem Reap - a page focusing on your hotel and your city / location. People will most likely always search hotel plus city or location name or island name.
• Rooms - you have what rooms? Different categories, sizes, prices = cheap, affordable, family, with WIFI, fridge, etc show pictures
• Restaurant - menu online. Describe food and opening hours. Offer additional information about other restaurants within reach. No one - me included - eats always at the place he works or sleeps. Promote your neighborhood and city!
• Recreation, culture, sport, etc. Offer pictures and information. Some visitors may be on a business trip but still want to have a social life after all work or enjoy culture.
• How to arrive - how to find you - how to contact or make reservations
• Prices = some hotel may focus on cheap rooms, back packers, etc. Thus such hotels may cater to a precise group of potential customers / travelers and need optimized pages. There is for example a resort hotel on Boracay island that has luxury rooms, middle class standard rooms and real dormitories for back packers. All on one hotel on a huge property. Hence such a hotel would require 3 room pages. Each page optimized for one of the 3 room / customer categories. It is impossible to efficiently promote one single page for all 3 a.m. room / traveler categories!!!
• Family hotel Siem Reap - what to do if all family arrives. Adventure, golf, swimming pool, spa, crocodile farms, floating village, boating, sailing, trekking, etc. Many different pages possible for all such topics.
• Nature, temples, jungle, elephants, butterflies, lotus flowers, silk farm, your entire country Cambodia including pictures from Cambodia, ... provide quality information on ALL aspects of life in your entire region of may be 50-100 km or a distance of a single full day excursion from your hotel location. For example waterfalls Phnom Kulen and other beautiful remote attractions.

Example SCUBA diving business in Florida

• What certification - PADI or ? On site class room facility = show picture, audio visual / video, etc
• List of all certification classes and specialty courses, SCUBA diving Instructor preparation, etc
• Rental equipment - list and prices, pictures of rental equipment
• Equipment sales - brands, items, may be prices and for part of equipment online orders / delivery ?
• Equipment repair offered, what brands, hydro testing (DOT)
• Air fill station - filling pressure 3000PSI / 5000 PSI / mixed gas, etc
• Dive excursions, half day, full day, specialty diving - wreck, drift, night, cavern, cave, treasure hunting, artifact collecting, boat dives, departure of regular scheduled (daily?) boat dives with destinations, etc
• List of all dive sites visited - maps, photos, wallpapers, greeting cards of sites, ... be creative and innovative!!!
• Accommodation for remote / traveling divers or during multi day excursions
• How to find your store, road map, Google map, etc
• Dive travel - do you own or are affiliated with a tropical dive destination ? Provide online image gallery
• Have a divers forum and online photo gallery - may be an UW photo contest of your customers with online gallery of participating UW pictures.

I am quiet sure, these above examples should wake up your own creative mind set and give you an idea how to create potential entry pages for potential customers. A web site is a very powerful tool to promote your small business. If you have a family business, get all family members involved by having them each and ALL create a.m. social bookmark registration and profile as well as each family members having a personal social network profile with blog to promote independently your business, neighborhood, country, etc. Always linking here and there to your business or family business web site.

Let's all work a little harder and learn to do our job better. Above all let's learn to to our job ourselves rather than outsourcing all work and limiting our life and work on making profits and spending money or driving Mercedes paid by Daddy. Each business should first of all be self dependent, knowing all, doing all in house. In a family business make sure all people living from your family income also contribute their share to your family work. A family business is a team work. each and every one helping, sharing,sweating and working - including night shifts and unpleasant or boring work. Just like in the fairy tale Mother Holle - each one seeing and doing his / her duty in life. In times of global crisis it is vital for each business to safe expenses and to provide best possible quality. The best quality always comes from family members loving each other and helping each other.

The difference between going bankruptcy or prospering in life and business often only is a few percent more or less revenue. That difference can be obtained in your favor by exploiting, testing and using the full scope of online marketing, web site promotion and search engine tools. The most important however is that you learn to do all that promotion on your own rather than outsource such important work. Your life, your family life and your family happiness may depend on success. No one can be as motivated to learn and do all the needed overtime and night work as you - the owner and all owner's family members.

Here is is now 0800 in the morning and I have been working all night with a short coffee break around 4 AM. To help you to do your job better. Now it is your job to prove that your own business is as valuable to YOU as it has been to me working ALL night to provide you all necessary steps and information to succeed in your life and family business. I am a farmer son, having learned ALL in self study myself. Hence you all out there can do the very same. Work harder, longer, better, learn whatever is missing in your knowledge and skills and you too will succeed in your own life.

Love and bliss - Merry Christmas time
