From Perry Marshall:

Today’s Pay Per Click landscape is a repeat of high school.
My 1984 marketing story: www.perrymarshall.com/1984

If you sell coffee as a commodity, it’s worth 2
cents a cup. If you sell it as a good, it’s worth
25 cents a cup. If you sell it as a service it’s
worth $1.00 a cup. If you sell it as an
experience, it’s $5.00 a cup. A 250:1 difference
between commodity and experience.

Meaning: Getting ahead by slashing prices is
cutting your own throat. You MUST take a lead from
Starbucks and deliver an entire customer
experience. Move UPSTREAM, not down.

Your marketing plan MUST include Google. Love
‘em, hate ‘em, Mother’s Milk or Big Brother, there
is no avoiding this fact.

If your marketing plan ONLY includes Google,
you’re an accident waiting to happen. You must
invoke the Unlimited Traffic Technique and elevate
your conversions to a level where you can compete
on any level playing field. Once accept this
reality, you liberate yourself from the mosh pit
of misery and mediocrity.

If you have a successful affiliate business and
it’s still standing, congratulations. You still
have time to move to higher ground. Time to move
NOW.

After 3 days in Maui (one of the most intense
learning experiences ever) one conclusion everyone
reached at the end of day 3 was this: *Regardless
of where you buy clicks, if you don’t have an
Autoresponder sequence, you’re leaving 2/3rds of
the money on the table.*

Social Media is a freaking a waste of time

compared to just TEN well-written emails. In my

opinion if you don’t have AR’s in place you’re

lucky to still be alive.

The principle of the Slight Edge says: If
you’re just 5% better than everyone else you get
50% more of the spoils.

There is no such thing as One Single Ideal
marketing message, anymore than there is One
Single Ideal shrub in the jungle. What you need is
a toolbox of effective hooks that work with
different kinds of people. That is the premise of
the Swiss Army Knife.

Market Research is crucial. In 2004 you could
afford to sling mud against the wall. Not in 2010.
Ask your prospects the right 3 questions and sort
the data right and your chances of success in a
startup go from 5% to 50% overnight.

Most people now are on the defensive. They’ve
shuttered their doors and windows and they’re
trying to ride out the recession. That’s just slow
motion suicide. Those who prevail have decided to
be 21st century alchemists and every single day
they’re trying to figure out how to deliver a more
awesome customer experience.

Much has been written and discussed, usually passionately, about search engine optimization or, as it is known, SEO.  For many years, SEO was purported to be some type of magic that you had to pay someone to handle the details.  The general consensus was that the “normal” person could not handle SEO. To add to this stereotype, the search engines tried to keep an aura of magic in SEO.

Recently, the veil of magic has been lifted.

Much of the “magic” of SEO is really not that magical.  It is more common sense than anything else.  Yes, there are rules that you need to abide by to stay in the good graces of the search engines.  The rules are not magic but you need to change, slightly, the manner in which you present your material.  It is not as simple as just locking in a single keyword. It is learning how to lock in the “feeling” that the search engines are seeking.

Fortunately, in the past several years, many people have worked very hard to educate everyone who wants to learn about the trials and tribulations of SEO.  They have printed and spoke about everything that is required to excel in SEO.  The real advantage of learning from these experts is that they have assembled tools and techniques that shorten the learning curve. Because these people spent their effort to help others, everyone benefits.

So, what is this “magic” that the search engines are seeking?

The easiest way to describe SEO in terms that everyone can understand is “relevancy”. The search engines are looking for more than just a single keyword.  They are looking for a pattern of linking words and phrases that add more “structure” to the keyword.  SEO is also about how to structure of how everything is tied together.

For instance, Google has tools on its search page that will show the relevant words and phrases for a given keyword or phrase. Then Google also will allow you, using their own tools, to further dissect these words and phrases. By completing the research before you construct your site or article, you have a significant advantage over the person that doesn’t understand SEO or doesn’t believe it matters.  Trust me, it does.

The way that you know that your SEO work is doing its job is to do the Google search. When your info show up on the first page of Google … and stays there … you have completed your work successfully.  It gives you great, personal satisfaction when everything falls into place and you get your info ranked over people that have been there for a period of time.

The BEST way to “win” in SEO is to change your mindset to match what the search engines are looking for.  It isn’t magic, it is just following a set of rules, much like most other things in life.  The advantage that you have with SEO is that you have feedback very quickly. If your information doesn’t rank, you didn’t do your homework.  The good part is that you can always rework what you did until you DO get it right.

So, how do you learn SEO correctly?  Easy.  Go to:  http://www.MLMIntegrityMarketing.com to learn how my team and I teach others to utilize these same SEO tools to control our spots on the web.
