Best online directories

Is well known that above all DMOZ directory is the best online directory. DMOZ, also known as The Open Directory Project (ODP), is a large, categorized directory of websites and  pages, which is staffed by volunteers. Every website and page that is added to the directory has to be manually reviewed before it is included. Being listed in the directory is  free.

But when you try to list your site in DMOZ you are in trouble. After you add your site an editor will approved it ... or not. And this can take months, even years.

So what is the solution ?
A good alternative until your site is listed to DMOZ is to submit your site to online free web directories. Submitting site to online free web directories will fast increase  your PageRank. PageRank is an integral part of Google's ranking algorithm, and higher PageRank helps towards higher rankings. The PageRank within a website is increased by pages  from other sites linking to it, and the higher the PageRank of the pages that link to it, the better it is for the receiving site.

When submitting a site to online free web directories, always take time to find the right category for it. Don't be tempted to submit it to a category that is higher up the tree  than it belongs, because it won't be accepted there and, doing so, could cause unnecessary, self-induced delays.

Running A Profitable Web Site

New web sites are popping up on the internet at an astonishing rate.  Many of these sites are being created by ordinary people looking to earn extra money on the internet.


New web sites are popping up on the internet at an astonishing rate.  Many of these sites are being created by ordinary people looking to earn extra money on the internet.  With the simplicity of web authoring tools that are readily available, it’s become much easier for internet newcomers to develop and maintain professional looking web sites.

Even with the web authoring tools and so many other resources at your disposal, it will still require a lot of work and patience before you see any real profit from your web site.  The actual creation of your site is only one step in a series of steps that must be taken in running a profitable web site.

To help make your web site as successful as possible, I’ve identified seven helpful tips for you to follow:  

1.  Create as much original content as possible.  People enjoy reading original content, which will keep your visitors on your site longer.  People also tend to return to sites more often that frequently update their content.

2.  Make sure all links on your site are active.  Make it a habit to check your links on regular basis to ensure they work and that visitors are being directed to the page or site you intend.  If people can't get to where they want to go, they will leave.

3.  Make sure the content and graphics on your web site are relevant to its theme.  People can be easily confused if they land on a site expecting a particular topic, but the content or graphics don’t match that topic.  Most people will just move on to the next site.

4. Include a contact page or email address for visitors to contact you.  By providing contact information, your business will be given more credibility.  Plus, a potential customer may have a question about a product or service you’re promoting.

5.  Speaking of questions, adding a FAQ’s to your web site would be a great benefit to your visitors.  By listing answers to common questions, your visitor will be able to have a specific issue addressed without any interaction from you.  This saves you time to focus on other matters.

6. Offer your visitors a gift for visiting your web site, and provide other incentives for them to return.  These could include ebooks, software or even a subscription to your newsletter.  Most people are drawn to free gifts which will compel them to return to your site.

7.  Layout your web site in a logical order.  For example, if you’re promoting a product, don’t give away a free gift until your visitor learns about the product.  You want to keep your visitors focused on your product or site for as long as possible.

By applying the techniques above, you should be able to keep visitors on your web site longer and increase your overall traffic.  If you’re promoting a product or service, more visitors equate to more potential sales; resulting in more profit from your web site.

Buying Your Internet Products At A Major Discount

Making an income online has been a goal of mine for years.

My biggest desire is to retire on a sailing ship in the Mediterranean and each week on a Monday when I go out on deck, I would reach for my mobile phone and call my old boss and check on the weather back in Britain.

Or maybe I would wait until the sun was over the yard arm and call him so say “Hey do you recognize this sound?” (holding the phone over the side of the guard rail)… “That’s the sound of the Mediterranean sun kissed sea lapping against my yacht, while this” (popping the top off my chilled bottle of Grolsch), “is the sound of my chilled beer helping to keep me cool…. How’s work by the way?”

That day is getting closer, but it could have been here by now if only I hadn’t been so pig headed.

You see, I thought I knew best. I believed that if I build it they would come. Worse still, I believed I knew what people wanted.

How dumb was I?

As it turns out, not that dumb. You see, I was willing to admit I had been wrong, I was willing to look for a better solution and then I was willing to pay for it.

It’s never too late to start again. With that in mind, I started looking for solutions. These solutions had to meet certain criteria.

1. Be able to get high quality products at a discounted price. 2. Be able to offer services to absolute beginners and experts alike. 3. Be affordable. 4. Have clear instructions and/or training. 5. Offer solutions that people outside of marketing would desire.

That seems like a tall order, but I believed I could find a solution, if I didn’t then I would create one.

What really surprised me when I looked was that the solutions were there right in front of me and what surprised me more was that I had seen these solutions and ignored them because I had seen them so often before!

How dumb is that? If you keep seeing the same product being offered month after month, year after year, then it probably works. Why? Because nobody is going to spend good money advertising a lemon are they? Of course not.

Here’s one of the solutions I found and what it has to offer, remember the list above?

1. High quality products with resale rights and sometimes, master resale rights. New products added monthly and I could request a product as well. 2. This is a zero experience solution (see 4 below). 3. The cost is about the same as a large pizza and coke. 4. Each section of the member’s area has clear instructions that anyone can follow. 5. There are products that are of interest to Internet marketers and non-marketers alike.

Looks like a winner! It is, believe me, it is.

I have seen the website for this site so many times that after reading it years ago, (and dismissing it because I though I knew better), I only read it again this year.

Having read it again and again, I looked at the price and got my payment card out right away. I haven’t looked back since. I now have the new version of the site on a new domain.

One of the first things I did was read a course called “Online Advertising For the Completely Clueless!".

I’ve been running my online business for about four or five years. I didn’t think I was clueless, BUT all I could do was nod my head and scribble notes.

I was so impressed that I now offer this course for free to anyone who wants it. It’s big, really big, so are the results you can get by following the course and acting on the advice.

So by now you are saying tell me where I can get my hands on all this information, right?

OK. Just visit Push Button Solutions and don’t make the mistake I did.

If you are unsure when you visit the site, take a good look at what’s on offer, sign up for the course at the bottom of the page Push Button Solutions then when you are done just 5 days from now, go back to the site and look again.

My yacht is becoming a reality at last.
