A backlink is simply a link to your site from another site. Backlinks are also referred to as inbound links, incoming links and inward links. Having a good amount of backlinks leading to your site can do a lot for your search engine ranking. Your goal is to have numerous backlinks from authoritative sites and sites that are relevant to your site.

One way backlinks are much more effective in improving your search engine rankings than the traditional reciprocal links. A reciprocal link is when two websites trade links but this method has been somewhat abused over the years so backlinks are much more impressive. Reciprocal linking will still help your ranking if done properly but you want to work on getting powerful backlinks.

Below are ten ways to help you get more successful backlinks to help improve your search engine ranking.

1. RSS Directories - If you have an RSS feed you will want to consider submitting it to some of the top RSS Directories. Submitting to RSS directories will get your updates indexed and back linked quickly. Some of the top RSS Directories are Feedburner, Blogarama, RSS Network and Golden RSS Feed. Do a search to find many more.

2. Social Media - What list would be complete without social media? Get involved with your social sites and post relevant content. Respond to people. Comment on other posts. The more relevant content you post and the more you get involved, the more chances you have of people reposting your content resulting in a backlink to your site.

3. Forum Marketing - Get involved on message boards, discussion groups and community sites. Become a valued member. Do not just post thank you and I agree with that type posts. Be sure to offer information and resources that are really helpful to people. With every post you will have a backlink to your site included in your signature.

4. Freebies - Write an information filled report or eBook. Offer it free to all your visitors. Add a page to your site highlighting this freebie and offer people permission to post it on their site as well for their visitors. People love good freebies so this strategy could give you a considerable amount of backlinks.

5. Commenting on Blogs - Some blogs will allow you to add your link for posting comments on their content. Make these comments count so the blogger will allow them to be posted. Bloggers want good solid content and comments on their blog to attract more interaction so don't just attempt to post one-liners.

6. Article Marketing - Write information-packed quality articles and start submitting them to authority article directories such as EzineArticles. Watch for article banks loaded with spam articles. You want your backlinks to mean something to the search engines. Write an effective resource box and add your link for a backlink people will click on.

7. Web Directory Submissions - Search for and find some of the top website directories. Be sure to read their guidelines so your submission is accepted. Some examples of quality website directories are: Web World Index, So Much, Search Sight and Direct My Link. There are countless more to which you can submit your site.

8. Link Baiting - Link baiting is a marketing strategy by which a person adds content to their site which is designed to gain attention and to get people to link to the content. A lot of the time, hype and controversy are used for this purpose such as celebrity gossip, news stories, human interest stories, etc. Using innovative or cutting edge content can gain a lot of backlinks as well.

9. Guest Posting on Blogs - Guest posting is similar to article marketing. Write relevant content for numerous different blogs and submit them for acceptance as a guest post. Getting your posts with your link on quality blogs is a great way to add to your backlink arsenal.

10. Blog Carnivals - Blog carnivals are online magazines that accept article submissions from other bloggers. They are basically periodic collections of links to blog posts and articles. You can read more about blog carnivals and how to use them for more backlinks at Blog Carnival or Blogger Carnivals.

Years ago when linking was first implemented in internet marketing, people went for quantity. Get as many links as you can but now the search engines are looking for relevant links to high ranking sites with quality content. Do not just plaster your link anywhere. The search engines believe in the guilty by association rule. If your link is placed on a spam, porn, gambling or other poor quality site, it will definitely affect your rating in a not-so-good way. So, let's be careful out there and link to the best sites we can!

In this constantly changing working environment today, personal career development planning is vitally important if we are to remain employable and to achieve our career goals. A systematic approach to your personal career plan is very essential these days if we are to observe that over the years, skills that were once in great demand have become obsolete due to the progress in new technology and market dynamics.

You may adopt a three step process approach for your personal career plan by assessing your current situation, examine and determine your future goals and finally to draw up a program towards achieving your future goals. These three step approach is elaborated in the next few paragraphs.

Your current situation is basically your resume or curriculum vitae. When assessing your current situation, you are basically drawing up your resume which is a very important document in your job search for the career opportunities that you are seeking. You are basically stating your experiences, skills, knowledge and qualification on paper. The resume has a dual purpose in that you are now fully aware of your current situation.

In personal career development planning, it is vary important to have a clear picture of your future goals, only then can you work towards achieving your objectives. You need to have a vision of your near term, medium term ad long term goals. For example, if you are an engineer and your goal is to be the director of a construction firm, your near term goal would be to be a project engineer, to be promoted to a project manager later and ultimately to achieve your long term goal of becoming a director of a construction firm.

Such program should include working under a more experienced person in your industry for the valuable mentoring assistance and guidance, as well as retraining and attending courses to build up your understanding and required skills relating to your industry. It may also be beneficial to work in different functions within the industry to acquire an overall knowledge of the industry if your ultimate goal is a managerial position such a director of a construction company. If you are already in well organized organization, you should constantly discuss with your immediate superior on your career development plan to obtain the necessary skills in the industry. Otherwise, it would be advisable to check the job market to steer your career path in the right direction.

In addition to the above, it is always important to develop soft skills such developing your personality and learning to work as a team. Building a successful career involves more than an individual's effort, therefore having the ability to work with others is an important trait to acquire.

As mentioned above a personal career plan should be in place if your desire is to achieve your career goal. Otherwise, you may find yourself stuck in your present position with little direction right up to the time for your retirement.

3 Google Adsense Tracking and Reporting System

15:26 Emebu Blessing No comments

Tracking the results of your marketing efforts can help you focus your efforts and make adjustments to win. Google offers a great free tracking feature known as ‘Channels’. You can use these channels to track ads on specific URLs or to categorize ads based on their formats, keywords, location on web page and so on. You can choose from two channel types offered by Google.

1. URL Channels
This will help you track the performance of your web pages without altering your ad code. All you need to do to track your performance is to enter a full or partial URL in the channel and you’re done. A full page URL will track the performance of the specific page having that address. If you want to track all the pages on a specific domain, you need to enter a top-level domain name.

2. Custom Channels
Custom channels are used to track the performance of your webpage based on the criteria that you specify. You can choose what specific factor you would like to track and customize the channel according to your requirements. As the name suggests, custom channels are very flexible, and if you have ever used any kind of data reporting tool, you will find setting them up easy and logical. You can have up to 50 custom channels!

You can compare the performance of different ad formats and the relevancy of ads. You can also compare how ads on one page are performing when compared with ads on other pages. You can do so by assigning each group of pages to a specific channel and eventually comparing results in your customized channel reports. You can also see where your clicks are coming from by assigning a channel to each of your separate pages. Also, it is a good idea to name your channel in such a way that it is easy to identify different channels in reports, especially if you are using a dozen or more.

3. Server Logs
In addition to the ‘channel’ program offered by Google to track your AdSense ads on your web pages, you can also use any of the various high quality external AdSense tracking software packages to track your performance in greater detail (except actual revenues – you need to get that from Google). One major advantage of such software is that it runs locally, which enables you to access specific information that Google doesn’t track. Be aware that none of these thirdparty software solutions are “endorsed” by Google currently, but most of them guarantee to operate within AdSense guidelines. Just make sure they do, because you don’t want to lose your account status over a technical violation by a third party.

Some of the information you can obtain by using tracking software:
• Referring website of all your visitors
• The type of web browser they are using
• Where the actual ad-clickers are coming from
• Search keywords typed in by the visitors to your website that eventually brought them to you.

You should use a combination of Google channels and a reliable AdSense tracking program so as to get comprehensive information about your AdSense account.
