This is a guest post by Danielle on the effect of Facebook’s Timelines on marketing. You can read the guidelines for guest posting at our guest posting guidelines page.

With Facebook announcing changes to their fan pages in February, brand marketers will have to embrace the new format to ensure success on Facebook. Still, marketers won’t be left entirely without guidance. These six changes encompass the biggest adjustments and how to deal with them.

Updated Look and Feel

Just as Timeline changed the face of personal accounts, the Timeline for brands and fan pages will provide an updated look for companies and products. While this is an adjustment, it offers a great opportunity for marketers to update their products and appeal to more consumers. With the ability to post about internal company activity, product updates and special deals, users are prompted to engage with not only the fan page, but the brand as well.

Reduced Tab Visibility

The same applications exist with Timeline brands that did with the standard fan page, but their display has changed. With the new display, only three apps will appear above the fold, so marketers will need choose their most popular or effective apps to appear first.

No Default Landing Page

Unlike the fan page, the new Timeline format will not allow brands to feature a specific and targeted landing page. This will force marketers to pay frequent and detailed attention to posts being made at the top of their Timelines. Filtering information and even deleting some posts will be necessary to present your brand’s image appropriately.

New Way to Feature Content

The Timeline format will allow marketers to secure posts at the top of their Timeline for specified period of time. This will allow promotions and new content to reach consumers without using a default landing page. Once again, marketers will need to really understand their fan-base to determine what information to pin.

Current Tab Content and Apps Become Outdated

Because application tabs are being removed from the Timeline, marketers will need to develop icons to accompany their apps. Focusing on the icons for the above-the-fold apps will be key for the launch of a brand Timeline. Other icons can come later.

Private Messages between Brands and Users

This new interaction tool will allow managers to address customer concerns and inquiries through private, specific messages. Maximizing this tool will help appeal to more users and add a personal touch to your brand.

While we are not 100 percent sure how Timeline will affect Facebook marketing, embracing these tips and the new features will surely be key in managing a successful brand page. It might take time to adjust to the new format, but with the personal interaction features Facebook has added, the new format has potential to appeal to wider audiences.

It is of no doubt that websites are the need of the day for any business, be it a small one or an established one, as it helps to reach a wider audience globally, which no one would want to compromise on. There are many types of web design which are offered by the web design companies for various requirements, as they would differ from one firm to another.

Let’s look at some of the most popular web design types which are in use for a wide range of distinct requirements.

Static web design

This is probably one of the easiest types of web design as acknowledged, besides also being extremely useful over the rest.  It appears to be an easy way to display your services or information regarding your business to make your online presence felt.

They are mostly straight forward which includes easy downloading of images with simple navigation, which makes reviewing the site and finding information on the site an easy task. This type of web design is quick, along with being search engine friendly, which is why it is mostly preferred.

Dynamic web design

This aspect of web design is extremely beneficial when a site wants to include various functionalities, along with complex features. It is easily adaptable when compared to the other types of web design, which makes them very desirable.

The design of a dynamic site appears to be very different to that of the designing a static site.  This type of designing offers exclusive features, which are interactive, along with the addition of various useful plugins, besides also being successfully indexed by the search engines.

Flash web design

Those looking for creating a creative and interactive looking website would want to go for this type of web design. Due to these features it tends to have an impact on the users and the visitors, which successfully manages to attract them.

This has become one of the most favored and preferred platform all over the globe for animations and videos. However it is a known that these sites might not seem to be very friendly from an SEO point of view.

E-Commerce web design

These are for the ones looking to expand their retail store on the web or would like to start an online store and they are in great demand these days, as it proves to be a great platform. The main aim of these sites is to increase the sales of certain products, which in turn profitably helps in reducing the costs which are related to marketing, making it extremely cost-effective.

By using this design method, users are always open to the wider audience, around the clock, which successfully helps in getting more conversions than would have been otherwise.

The above mentioned ones are some of the types which are in demand. Every design type has its own benefits and drawbacks, hence it is essential to choose the one which best suits your requirements and not something which others follow. A professional web design Company from India can impressively aid with all your various requirements, as they possess the required expertise in order to take a Firm forward in their endeavors.

In Carbon Copy Commissions Review we are looking at a latest launch by Justin Mitchie – Carbon Copy Commissions.

I got a couple of mails in the past few days asking me why is it that I have taken to reviewing a lot of products all of a sudden.

Does that question require an answer?

In addition to the fact that I generate income from all my reviews, I also am very particular about the fact that I only review products that I feel actually work and something that is worthy of a purchase.

In the past, I had never attempted of obtaining a review copy or, reviewing products because I myself was not too satisfied with these launches. Moreover, probably my site was not considered that huge a heavyweight to be given a review copy. Hence tho product reviews were only the ones that I had used myself.

The situation has changed now. All of the above is happening, review copies, recommendations to newbies etc. Hence I thought I will get into an official mode of reviewing products.

While I do these reviews, I promise I will not overdo it. So it is time now for my latest review – carbon copy commissions review.

Carbon Copy Commissions review – The base

Justin Mitchie launched his latest product a couple of days back. The title of this post – carbon copy commissions review should tell you the name of the product, doesn’t it? (LOL)

Initially intended to be launched at Clickbank, Justin had to make an alternate launch. This is primarily due to the fact that Clickbank has changed the way sales letters have  written. They have amended their policies and hence most of the latest launches are having to lookout for alternate platforms to launch their products.

Justin’s product is one that is focused on affiliate marketing and promises to give you a simple method of making money online at Clickbank and our carbon copy commissions review will check it out to see if it really delivers on its promise.

In this product, Justin teaches you step-by-step methods of generating income in 5 different ways -

1. Generate a huge amount of Traffic from Youtube without creating a video.
2. Outsource your daily activities without spending anything for this.
3. Selling to a group of compulsive buyers, without a real product (no..that is not affiliate marketing or, PLR).
4. Money making strategy using Micro Work Sites.
5. Promote products using paid ads, but you don’t pay for it.

Let us now get into details in our carbon copy commissions review.

Carbon Copy Commissions Review – The Real Deal

There was a few things that we clearly disliked in the product in our carbon copy commissions review. We will be outright about it and let’s discuss that first.

Part 1 of the product looks at a method which has been covered by a lot of people, though it is refreshing to see a different approach to it. Same is the case with part 5 which too was old wine in a new pack. Nevertheless, these two are absolutely working models.

While we felt that these 2 parts were put in there to fill up the product, the remaining 3 strategies provided and extremely new and a working approach to making money. If I were you, I will concentrate on these 3 methods and keep the other 2 as backup method.

The course was extremely easy to understand, had a simple flow of information and had continuity. The material was well made and from a newbie standpoint we were satisfied from the carbon copy commissions review.

Concluding our Carbon Copy Commissions review

Overall, we were satisfied with the product and the information contained therein and it is a definite recommend, at least for newbies. Justin provides extremely good support and the product also comes with a 60 day money back guarantee.

So if you are dissatisfied with anything, just ask for a refund.

Moreover, at only $37.00 the product is worth it. There are a host of upsell, though which is usual with such launches, which you may or, may not buy – depends entirely on you.

This is a guest post by Jenny on tips to make the most of FB timelines. You can read the guidelines for guest posting at our guest posting guidelines page.

Change is the rule of life, the one who follow this is FB. When the users start feeling comfortable with one the other change is there, and the most recent one which is not liked by all is Facebook Timeline. Currently it is in beta phase but over a few weeks every user will be forcefully shifted to this new profile layout.

I myself being a dedicated Facebook user haven’t applied timeline on my profile. But with no control of me, once FB upgrades everything, the change will be inevitable. So whether you like it or, not you have to learn how the FB Timelines work. If you want to make that change now, you can do that by visiting Facebook.com/timeline.

In previous Facebook profile layout page there is a single long page which reflects all the status updates made. But in FB Timelines, user has been provided by a manageable navigation index of each and every update and posts made by the user.  Added feature of this is that you can track back in time with it. As in this you can make posts dating in your birth, or even before that.

An interactive map is present to depict the locations to which your post is being made. The motive behind this change is to make the FB experience more personal for the users as they are now allowed to upload events, personal stories, pictures and videos.

Making FB Timelines more interesting

To make your encounter with the new FB timelines interesting, there are few tricks which you should learn.

Tip 1 -A More appealing appearance

To get started with it put a cover photo to your profile, or you can make a collage of different pictures of yours and upload as your cover atop your profile.

It is provided with a profile picture of yours located at the lower left corner of the cover. Here most of the users put a close up picture of them, which is of no use, as in front of that large cover photo small close will go in vain. Instead in profile picture upload a picture having a written text on it, which depicts something about you. Or any other interesting picture which reflects your personality.

Tip 2 -Prioritizing to make FB timelines more interesting

Next comes the most time consuming task of arranging your updates according to the time when they happened. One can do this by using the activity log button present at the top of the page. To make it easier you can also use year by year slider present on the upper right side of the layout.

In this you have flexibility with your post to make them highlighted or hide from your friends.

On a mouse-over on a post few buttons appear like: Edit, Delete and Highlight.  As name suggests the first one will allow you to edit your post to make those changes. It will also give an option to hide your post from your friends, without deleting from your own profile. The last option is an interesting one, which will change your post from one column to two column wide, to make it more visually appealing.

Tip 3 -Highlighting to better engage

Highlight your life in events. If there is something memorable which you want to highlight with a date on which that occurred then, Life Events option is your answer.  It is present at upper right side of your profile, which let you create moments like your marriage, birth of your first child, the day you joined Facebook and many more. It also gives you the option of custom event creation.

Tip 4 – Flexible Photo edit

FB Timelines provides you with flexible photo editing features for your previously added photos in your account. Hovering your mouse over an image will display a menu with lot of options present in it. Like changing the date, location, cropping.

Tip 5 – Revisit Your Privacy Settings

Whenever a new change comes on FB we revisit our privacy settings to ensure our privacy. FB Timelines has not much effect on our privacy, as compared to it is easy to manage. Here you can edit aspects like who can see your timeline. You can also change the settings for individual posts from here.

A feature called close friend list can be created here once and can be specified every time you make a new post.

With FB Timelines Facebook wants its users to just relive their past.

This is a guest post by Heather on tips to increase blog readership. You can read the guidelines for guest posting at our guest posting guidelines page.

You spent hours perfecting your design.

You hired a top-notch designer to create a professional logo.

You spent weeks submitting your blog to every directory you could.

You posted your ads and your affiliate links, and you’re ready to start watching the visitors roll in.

But…. you’re still the only one at the party.

No one is commenting on your blog, and the few visitors you have are likely your mom and your friends.

What’s happening? Why isn’t anyone reading your blog?

Here are 5 reasons that might explain it. These are things that you might want to work on to increase blog readership.

It’s All about You

Yes, everything that your kids say is precious, and every twitch of your cat’s tail is adorable – to you. Maybe your lunch was delicious, and yes, it would be fun to go to the beach this summer – but you don’t need to share these thoughts with your readers.

Unless your blog is branded specifically as a personal blog, then sharing these kinds of details should be left to conversations with your friends (the only ones who will be reading your blog anyway, if this is the content).

If, on the other hand, your blog is about finance, talk about finance, not about your own shopping spree (unless it warns them about the dangers of easy credit).

In other words: Stick to the topic at hand and how it will help your readers. This is what will help increase blog readership.

Don’t turn your blog into a diary: Unless you’re Brad Pitt, the only people who want to read your diary are your mom and your girlfriend.

It’s Too Promotional

If you’re reading this site and this article, you’re likely blogging to generate income (or to become an Internet celebrity – the point of which is likely also to make money).

However, crowding your page with banner ads and affiliate links will only turn away readers. Posts shouldn’t focus on promoting products or affiliate sales. Instead, they should offer some value to the reader in the form of useful information or entertainment.

This doesn’t mean that you can’t post ads or write promotional content for your blog. You just have to know how to balance these interests and how to write posts that can be both beneficial for your readers and promotional – such as writing a post about popular SEO plugins that can help them boost traffic (and, if they buy, give you an affiliate commission). This will help you generate some decent income as well increase blog readership.

It’s Boring

There are a number of reasons that your blog can appear dry, academic or just plain weak:

• Overly formal tone
• Lack of a strong voice
• Poor headlines
• Too much text
• Refusal to take a stand on an issue

The most engaging blogs have a strong writer’s voice and take a clear stand on issues, especially if they are controversial.

The tone is conversational, like that of two friends talking.

They have informative and evocative headlines and large, engaging photos. Graphics and other interactive elements are used throughout the page. Text is broken up into digestible bits, including bolded terms and bulleted lists.

One of the strategies to increase blog readership is to create a more engaging blog that will attract the attention and interest of the readers.

Take a second look at your posts. How do they measure up on these qualities?

Content is Sporadic

If you only post once a week or once a month, of if there’s no pattern at all to when you post and new articles just appear spontaneously, not only will you lose page rank, but you’ll quickly lose reader interest. No one wants to work for your content.

Checking back every day to see if you have new content only to find none will make readers want to stop trying. Readers who are subscribed to your posts will simply forget about your blog – and stop caring.

Stay top of mind – and top of your ranking potential – by writing regular, quality content.

You Don’t Promote It

You may have some of the best content on the Web, but if no one knows about it, no one will be reading it. Make sure you are using effective SEO strategies, including proper keyword usage, link building, guest posting, and building relationships with the readers you do have and other bloggers in your niche.

The more you do to improve your page rank, the higher your page rank and the more visitors you will attract.

What will you do to increase blog readership?

How does your blog stack up? Is no one reading your blog, or do you have visitors flocking to your site? Let us know what strategies are working for you, and where you still need to improve.

If rankings are allotted to many fields and work standard in day to day life, then why not an internet site with the search engines? Getting results on search engines like Google and Yahoo is the most important and foremost criteria for a small or, big site businessman.

Reasons are varied and the workaround for dropping in the search engines rankings are very few, they may be due to an addition of a new link, changes in algorithm or sometimes they just drop due to the change that happens in a respective site.

Having a ranking loss cannot be ruled out but at least required measures can be taken to have attendance in the search results established well.

Below are some of the steps to reduce ranking loss:

Variations in Site

Keep updating your site with time to time by adding new links, introducing attractive products, doing away with old links/referrals, updating posts or even renovating and redesigning the look of the site.

While above mentioned objectives are a must for the sake of your site, if it is not properly carried out they can have adverse effects on search results of your site. The changes you made in your website is proportional to the positive or, negative effect you see. Depending upon what you changed can have a minimal or drastic change on search engine sites.

Sometimes even small detail change can have a chronic effect on your site. Editing the content, re-working on pages, changing of tags, site redesign can make unwanted ranking change if they are not properly executed.

Dealing with it –

Do not change contents of your site about which you’re unsure whether they will affect your ranking or not. Consulting an SEO is the best way to avoid downfall in rankings. He is sure to guide you in a way with easy steps, which will have minor or, no effect on your ranking status.

Be sure to keep in mind about the ranking change when you make changes in your site and avoid changing content about which you have no knowledge on how it will change your ranking.

Server Down

In some cases ranking are dropped when the search results try to catch your content but fails due to its inaccessibility. If it happens for once or few instances, it eventually won’t affect your ranking but if it happens more frequently then you are sure have a rankings down. Slow web hosts not only disinterests a new visitor but also changes the mind of search engines to down the ranking as fast as they would have otherwise done.

Dealing with it –

Make sure to find a good web host provider for your site which not only insures good speed and up-time but also becomes answerable for any mis-happening not just with funds. You also get full and overall control of your website, simultaneously being informed about the changes that will affect your site.

Information can work as a partner with you in helping you make changes, get site links and more. You only get to make all the decisions until and unless you give it out of your hand, and even if you do and have dissatisfaction with the results then you can go back anytime and change the things as you like.

We recommend Hostgator which is found to be a reliable host when it comes to hosting websites. Check out Hostgator.

Competitor’s always sit surrounding you

It’s a WWW (World Wide Web), so you obviously cannot expect your site to be the only one and ranked at the top. A number of factors comes into play when ranking of sites are in discussion. Everyone wants to have a seat next to the king and so does site builders wants a first place in search engine results.

All websites include many pages in their site which eventually hits the search engine which may also be similar to yours and this is where many factors come into place. A page in a website being searched many times can acquire first place and the same can be the other way round too.

Dealing with it –

The best way to get out of this mess to build a better website and stronger pages included. This work should be on daily basis so that you get noticed. Give each topic its exclusive information, more guidelines and the list is endless. The conclusion is to make your site more valuable to the guest.

Search engine algorithms an issue

At a constant speed, search engine rankings fluctuates. Search engine have to show relevant results to their visitors which in turn will get even more visitors to their sites. Search engine results change in accordance with a change in search engine algorithms. At times algorithm also gets impacted when there is too much irrelevant content. If a particular content in the same topic is present on a site which weighs better than yours then you are sure to see a drop out on search results.

Dealing with it –

Search engines, without giving prior information, changes it view towards aspects like content, body, style etc. and new requirements come into place. The best way is to keep your site up to date and provide content that is equally appealing to visitors and Search Engines alike.

I wanted to do a complete social metrics pro review only after I had installed the plugin and used it for a couple of days. I hence had to wait for about 2-3 days to see the real results.

One of the latest launches at Clickbank is Social Metrics Pro by Daniel Tan. And the reason for it becoming so interesting is the latest Google Panda update. The Big G went on to announce that, henceforth social signals is what it will prefer.

What that meant is, if you site has a considerable social media presence, then the likelihood of your site getting ranked better on Google is higher in comparison to someone whose site is not that well ranked.

Scope of our Social Metrics Pro Review?

In our social metrics pro review, we decided that we will look at aspects that a lot of other reviewers did not touch upon.

Social Metrics pro is a wordpress plugin and so the basic expectation is that it should put as little load as possible on the website loading. This was something that we were kind of satisfied to a 50-50 extent. Though the plugin did not put too much of load on the website loading, we were tired of seeing the “data refresh” notification on our panel. Though Daniel Tan claims that it is very fast, our social metrics pro review proved otherwise.

Having said that social metrics pro negated this negative aspect by many of its positive aspects.

Social Metrics Pro review – The Dashboard

This was one of the best aspects of the plugin. We were impressed with the plugin settings and scorecard dashboard. The settings were extremely simple. It had some extremely simple options like -

1. Selecting the social media sites to check.
2. Some simple options to enable import to CSV or, excel etc.
3. Option to switch on caching and switch it off.

Not to many confusing options and settings. Just some simple ones. Our Social Metrics pro review scored the plugin a five-on-five for this option.

Add to this the simply readable dashboard that shows you how you are doing in a conditional formatting that is similar to that of the one you find in MS-Excel and you have one of the simplest yet most powerful plugins around.

Concluding our Social Metrics Pro review

Before we conclude our social metrics pro review, it becomes imperative for us to discuss some of the results that we saw in the past 4 days.

We blindly followed the alerts and the signals and we were able to increase our traffic by about 98%. The impact of this traffic on our bottomlines were about 41% which was still good for amount looking at the $47 that we spent on the plugin.

This is a guest post by Roberta on the importance of quality links. You can read the guidelines for guest posting at our guest posting guidelines page.

In such a competitive world where billions of websites are there on the net, owning a good business website is not enough. In order to have good sales a website needs much more than a catchy domain name.  Building a site presence is must to succeed online.  To get a better search engine ranking, high quality links play a very important role.

In addition to this, the keywords that you have used throughout your page will also make a huge difference in your positioning. Needless to say there are many other factors that one need to understand in order to add up an excellent placement in the search engine ranking.

Let us suppose that if somebody simply says that “I am good”, it’s hard to believe for everyone, but when the same thing is said by somebody else, it will definitely add value. Links play a vital role in creating the prominence that a particular site has within a topic. Both internal links as well as external links are important.

By building a linking system around the WebPages in your website, internal links permits search engines to crawl each & every single page that exists in your website. While external links will increase the popularity of your website, which again helps you rank better in the search engine’s positioning.

A back link from another website serves as a vote for your website, and always remembers that search engines value each vote. But you need to acquire back links from popular & relevant websites only.

There are various aspects used by Google to actually figure out a website position in search engine results. Who you link to is one of the most important aspects that will make a difference on how well your website ranks and also its page rank. You will have to face a problem if you link a website that Google has already banned.

This will surely hurt both your page rank & your search engine position. When a web user wants to search for some information, he/she just type a relevant phrase or topic name into a search engine and start searching, don’t enters a particular web site.

Relevance as well as quality of link both are very important for better search engine positioning and a better page rank.
