SEO or search engine optimization is a great way to build your website traffic, and since traffic leads to sales, which create cash, why wouldn't you want to optimize your site? It is not a hard strategy, hence the title, Search Engine Optimization for Dummy.

Here are the top 5 secrets you need to know to optimize your website.

Secret #1 - Forget about the meta tag

The meta tag is old school. Very few, and none of the major, search engines care about the meta tag anymore. Making this great will get you nowhere. Meta tags are a thing of the past and went out like a fashion fad.

Secret #2 - Pick a keyword or phrase that is not general

You need to pick a keyword or phrase to optimize your site for that is not incredibly general. For example, if your site is about custom golf club, don't try to optimize your site for golf. I would not even optimize it for custom golf clubs. I would focus on a more narrow area like, custom built sand wedges or something to that nature.

Most likely if you have a good site it will already optimize itself for custom golf clubs and golf anyway. Plus there is going to be such heavy competition in these areas that it is going to be hard to achieve a first page ranking anyway.

Secret #3 - Don't overuse your keyword or phrase

You don't need to throw in your target keyword or phrase in every place it will fit. Put it in your title tag, in the header tag, and then use it a few times in your website content. That is all you need and the search engines will eat it up.

Secret #4 - Use free articles from content sites to optimize your site

Search and find well written free articles about a similar topic to your website and offer them on your website for your visitors to read. Most of the authors that post to free content sites have already optimized their articles for a certain keyword or phrase. By adding their article to your site you will be increasing your chances of the search engines picking up your site for that same keyword or phrase.

Secret #5 - Name your domain name correctly

If your trying to optimize your site for custom built sand wedges, then buy a domain name for the page you are trying to optimize and name it custombuiltsandwedges.com. This is what many of the major search engines like, especially Google. This alone can get you on the first page of the results sometimes.

Now you have the secrets you need and I can unleash you on this search engine world. Go earn a ton of traffic and feel free to use any of my articles, as you have probably guess, they are all optimized for a certain keyword or phrase. Good luck and may you have lots of success and web traffic.

OH YEA...I FORGOT TO TELL YOU>>>

I am about to reveal a way to make a great monthly income without much more than 3-5 hours of work a week. You can easily boost your income faster than you could ever imagine by using my adwords Google secret and using SEO or "search engine optimization".

This is what you do. You start using articles that are written by authors of free content sites, like my articles. They are all optimized to get a high ranking for a specific keyword on Google. This will allow the webpage we are going to build to get a high ranking as well. You will get hits this way.

All you do is use the article, without changing it and you must include the author bio box or you are not following the guidelines and you can get in a lot of trouble. Surround the article with Google adsense for content ads. You can use up to 3 blocks of ads per site.

This will give you a webpage that is optimized to get hits every day and when people visit the site they will click on your Google adsense ads and you make money. Some ads will even make you as much as $30 or more per click. You can easily build a nice monthly income with this method.

Now let's throw in Google Adwords and make even more money. You can pick very cheap keywords on Google Adwords that will make you more money when people click on your ads. You need a keyword tool like good keywords and you will need to build large lists of hundreds of keywords that have something to do with the subject of the webpage.

Then, you can plug these keywords into your Google Adwords campaign with a maximum bid of $0.05. If they do not activate for that price they are a waste of time and you can delete them. The idea is to pay $0.05 for a click on your ad that will bring you a visitor that will click on your Google Adsense ads that will make you more that $0.05.

This is a very easy strategy to create a monthly income. Think about this way if each site you build makes you $25 a month then you can easily build a huge amount of money by putting up 20 sites a week. That would be $500 a month that you would be able to build every week. Plus it will continue to come in because your sites will be ranked on search engines.
