Manual Directory Submission Service

Directory submission is the process of submitting site URL to web site directory. The process is not merely filling the form at directory submission page but also involves more than this. Now the question comes what all is involved in manual directory submission process. So following are the steps involved in Manual Submission of websites.

Selection of Web Directory
The first step is to select website directories which accept submission. There are three kind of directories Free Reciprocal and Paid directories. You have to select directory as per your requirement. Major requirement for selection of directory is that it should be search engine friendly so that vote can pass from directory to website submitted. Quality of Internet directory is also important factor as submission to low quality or spam directory can have negative affect on site submitted. The best selection is niche specific directories.

Search for Website URL
Searching for URL of the website to be submitted in directory to ensure that it has not been already submitted. Directory editors hate multiple submissions and will likely remove your site if it is already in their listings. Directory submission process starts if the website is not already listed in directory

Selection of Proper Category
Browsing to an appropriate category e.g Computer and Internet > Internet > Web Promotion > SEO Services. This involves deep digging of directory structure to find appropriate category. Web site submission to proper category has more chance of approvals. The best way is to see other site listed in category selected by you. If they are similar to your website it means you have reached at right category.

Creation of Valid Email Account
Creation of separate email account for directory submission service. This is done keeping in mind that the email address will likely be spammed though so don’t use a personal email account. Valid Email is also required so that directory editor can notify you of any issues with your submission.

Filling of Directory Submit Form
Next step is filling of form after selecting category. Checking of title and description of other website listed there to access what is editor view regarding title and description length. Filling the proper title and description as specified in the submission form. Other field usually required is Email Name Keywords and URL of the website to be filled. Rechecking of the directory submission form to ensure that all fields have been correctly filled and clicking the submit button. Verifying of the success page message to ensue that form have been correctly submitted.

Adding in List of Directory Submission
Adding the name of directory and particularly the category URL where you have submitted in separate sheet to avoid duplicate submission in future.

Checking of Directory Listing Approval
Last but not least to check the approval of website submitted. Checking back in a few weeks to see if the site has been added to the directory. This is necessary as in many cases directory editor do not inform about the accepting of website submission. If listing is not approved then again you have to repeat the process with selecting different category title and description etc.

Making A YouTube Video: Pieces You Should Try

Do you enjoy watching videos on YouTube? If you do have you ever thought about making your own YouTube videos? While making a YouTube video may seem like a complicated process it actually isnt one. YouTube makes it so easy for you to upload your videos that the hardest part isnt actually uploading them but making them.

When it comes to making a YouTube video one of the biggest problems a person has especially a first time YouTube video maker is deciding what type of video they should make. Of course you have the option to make whichever type of video you want within YouTubes guidelines of course but there are a few video pieces that you may want to closely examine as they are great for beginners.

One of the most popular video types currently found on YouTube are video blogs. Video blogs seem as if they are taking over traditional printed blogs. Instead of venting about their day in print many bloggers are now getting in front of the camera. Video blogs are easy to make as you pretty much just summarize what is going on in your life. Of course you need to keep safety in mind when making a YouTube video blog. If you want to outline your day week or month for other internet users to see you will want to do so without giving up too much information about yourself like your full name address or phone numbers.

Another one of the most popular video types currently found on YouTube are comedy videos. Comedy videos tend to include standup comedy skits as well as comedy sketches. If you have aspirations to be a comedian or even if you and your friends just like being funny you may have the makings of a great YouTube video. Of course if you are making a comedy video that involves other people like your friends you need to make sure that they know that you are planning on uploading the video to YouTube for the entire world to see.

If you would like to create a more serious YouTube video one that may be used for informational purposes only you may want to think about creating a howto video or a do it yourself DIY video. These types of videos are great for first time YouTube video submitters. If you are interested in creating a howto video you will want to make a video on something that you enjoy or one of your hobbies. For instance if you like making your own candles you may want to think about making a YouTube video or multiple video segments on how to do so.

If you enjoy playing video games you may also want to make a YouTube video about them. As it was previously mentioned there are a large number of first time YouTube video submitters who prefer making videos about something that they know or love. If you have an old video game or even just a traditional vintage board game you may want to make a YouTube video on it. Your video could include information on the history of the game or even tips on how to play it and so on.

As you can there are an unlimited number of video pieces that you can create for yourself and a large number of them are perfect for your first YouTube video. If you are looking for more information on popular YouTube videos you are urged to examine the YouTube site. You can easily examine a videos popularity by looking at its ratings or by seeing how much it is being discussed. Examining currently posted YouTube videos is a great way to give you ideas. It is also likely to up your chances of making a YouTube video that will be popular; one that will be watched or one that will be talked about.

The decision as to what YouTube video you want to post as your first one is yours to make but you may want to think about starting out small. After you have tested the waters you can move onto bigger and better YouTube videos should you wish to do so.

Linking Program Basics

A link can be understood as a recommendation from one web site to another but you have to be recommended by pertinent web sites to be sure you will get the expected results after implementing a wise linking program.

As a football player cannot give the best advice recommending an autoparts provider in Singapore a web site that sells discounted plasma TV’s won’t get any advantage by being linked from a lawyers’ firm site.

The first question we need to ask ourselves when thinking about creating a links program is “why do we need to do it?” and the answer is simple as “the more relevant and quality links pointing to your web site the faster it will be ranked on better positions”.

Then there are several questions that pop up in our minds spontaneously like “to whom may I link to” “and who should link to me?” “how many links can I have?” and others. To solve those inquiries I’ve written the following linking basics:

1. We always have to search for themed links. As said at the introduction there’s no chance to succeed with links coming from nonrelated web sites or links farms moreover your site can be banned if it’s related or work as a links farm.
   
   
2. Having more links than our competitors is not an indication of success. Search Engines qualify links by their quality and not by weight.
   
   
3. Reciprocal Links vs. One Way Links.
   A reciprocal link is easier to get as you exchange links with other themed sites to acquire better popularity which is a good deal for both parties… a good but weak deal. Each time Search Engines algorithms give lower importance to swapped links. Quality one way links inbound links are recognized as more valuable by Search Engines and give higher relevancy if you have links pointing to your site instead of exchanged links.
   
   
4. Themed and Authority Links
   Themed links are those from business related sites and are the most suitable to link to you or vice versa. A good example of a themed link is a vacation review site with a link to the web site of a resort in Aruba.
   Authority sites are those with a very high raking Google Page Rank 810 and because of its importance can send a link to a web site even if there is no match helping the linked site as for example a news site linking to an online MP3 players store.
   
   
5. Find the correct web sites
   We want to focus our efforts on relevant incoming links so to do that while earning time you can search for those web sites that are linking to your top positioned competitors for your main keywords then study how relevant they really are to your web site and depending on what kind of site they are informative directory business review newspaper etc you can either submit your information for free or pay a monthly/yearly fee to get a one way link to your web site into their pages depending on their policies.
   
   
6. Being consequent with your optimization process you should create a good copy for each link to be implemented including the desired landing page and the linked text. Directories allow you to add descriptions but if you are buying a link from a themed web site you may not be able to describe your site and simply add the optimized linked text and destiny URL.
   
   
7. While selecting a site to place a link more important if you are buying it you have to take into consideration the quality of the web site their ranking at the Search Engines At Google look the Page Rank parameter as well as their content to be sure it is appropriate for your business.
   Other factor that you have to look at is their own inbound links quantity and quality identically as previously researched on your competitors’ sites.
   
   
8. When acquiring exchanging or buying links a deal known as a “links package” even if they are quality and themed ones make sure their IP’s are different to maximize the results.
   If they have the same IP Search Engines can count them as a single source.
   
   
9. The less outbound links the site that links to you have the most efficiently your site will get improved. When buying you can ask how many links are being sold from that specific web site/page.
   

Search Engines algorithms won’t stop changing their parameters but one thing that is clear is that receiving optimized text links from quality web sites will always help improving our rankings.
