Let me explain…

I studied so many books about Internet marketing over the last couple of years that I decided to start a new web site, and share my knowladge and experience with other fellow Internet marketers.

Since I read lots of information about search engine optimization (SEO), I intended to optimize all of my web pages for search engines from the beginning on, expecting Google to be my number one source of traffic in the near future.

I did an extensive keyword research using WordTraker, made a blueprint for my product and article pages, and the time has come to choose a great domain name for my new project.

I went to GoDaddy, the famous domain name registar, tried this and that, and finally came up with a beautiful domain name related to Internet marketing – netmarketingstrategies.com

You probably know that Internet marketing is a very competitive niche, so I was glad that this domain name was still available. I registered it immediately.

My site was up and running in 48 hours. Now I needed some fresh web content, and to get indexed by major search engines as soon as possible.

So, I spent a week or two writing search engine optimized content for my new online business.

I usually don’t submit my new web sites to search engines for indexing. I prefer when my sites are found on other web sites and get spidered automatically.

One of the easiest ways to have a link to a web site from other sites is by writing and distributing high quality articles. So, I wrote an article about two-tier affiliate programs and submited it to major article directories.

Within a couple of days I searched for my article title in Google and noticed that it did great. Publishers liked my article and they were publishing it on their web sites and newsletters.

I expected my home page to get indexed very fast.

Time went.

Each week I searched Google to see if my site has already got indexed. It didn’t.

I decided to see if my domain has been spidered by other major search engines. Yes, both Yahoo and MSN got it. So, what went wrong? Why Google won’t index my home page?

Here’s what I think went wrong: my further investigation showed that the domain name had already been used by another webmaster and had been expired half a year ago when I registered it. It seems that the previous domain name owner was using unfair search engine optimization strategies and his web site was banned by Google.

I sent a request to Google explaining the situation and asking to lift the ban from my web site. I am not sure if they will listen and help me.

I am ready to register a new domain name in a few weeks time if I still cannot get my site indexed by Google.

So, don’t make the same mistake I did… If you intend to optimize your new web site in order to receive traffic from Google and other search engines, make sure to check out if a domain name you’ve selected for your online business is not banned by Google before registering it.

Weather you operate a web site or a physical business, you need visitors to your location and to drive traffic to your business, you need to be active and do some hard piece of work. Sometimes the closest distance from one place to some other, is the difficult way around, so you will need to get involved in some variety of traffic optimization to get the chore done.

A serious offer for your customers is always a great means to get dealings, the offering can be date based so that you make the offer on dead traffic days. Based on your wares you can provide rebates, bropas or some different saving on holidays too. It is a noted fact that rebates force dealings to both on-line stores and material shops.

If you run an online store or a web site you will want SEO to find the dealings you want, traffic from search engines is strong and converts better so that you will get higher gross sales and more clients.

Just like your store in the urban center, your shop on the cyberspace must have a good base and a healthy construction so both your craftsmen and your webhost must be first class. Like they say about pizzas, if the dough is great, the full pizza pie is good.

Don?t go for the cheapest solution unless you are hundred pct certain that it is as well the best answer, you will have to stay to your basic choice for a long time and you will save yourself from a good deal of difficulty later on.
