Could Viral ViralTags increase our PR and Ranking

Posted on June 7, 2007 by Dexter Panganiban

Ok Since this is an SEO month for me and I am increasing my ranking and gathering some new found friends I have received a request from Jimmy to try his Viral Tags, And so I am now riding in this viral tag. You could see different Experiment I am doing for this pas few days in here. So just follow the below Instruction and let us all benefit from this.

==== Copy and Paste below this line ===

Instructions:

1.) Copy and paste the matrix of “ViralTags” below.

2.) Substitute the Host Tag and one of the “Viral Tags” in the matrix with your anchor text of choice with your blog’s URL. Please keep anchor text to a max of 3 words to keep the matrix size manageable.

3.) When you get a ping back from someone that has your link in one of their “Viral Tags”, practice good karma by copying his/her Host Tag’s anchor text (automatically the associated link will also be copied) and paste it over one of your “Viral Tags” below.

4.) Encourage and invite your readers to do the same and soon this can grow virally.

Host Tag: Technology At Hand

Important: Once I get a ping back from you, I will add your anchor text and the associated link you designate as “Host Tag” here, replacing one of the “ViralTags” from the matrix above. As more and more bloggers copy and paste this matrix, the more backlinks you will have with your anchor text. If everybody who copy and paste from your blog does the same, pretty soon this will spread and go viral. So, the sooner you participate, the more links with anchor text you will receive.

=== Copy and Paste from Above this line ===

So what are you waiting for.. Copy and Link.. There are still lots of tags in here..

It is every Bloggers dream to have a very high ranking Site. And that is why my search for anything related to SEO leads me to Darin.cc site.

Darin.CC is a blog about Search Engine Marketing. He is offering to link to your blog if you review his blog and you could win a Free Nintendo Wii in the process!

Yeah you read it right I am joing Darin.cc site contest first to get a chance to win a freen Nintendo Wii and next to have a backlink from his site. It is a double purpose thing. And maybe there will be some participant that will gonna click the link to my site and have a new visitors and perhaps a new RSS reader. I may say that his site is neatly doneand not cluttered with too much Advertising. You could learn a lot from his SEO Category .

The next thing that I like from his blog is for giving lots of Speed linking to other blogs.Hos blogs Objectives which really rocks is.

to help educate the public on Search Engine Marketing techniques. I have seen so many bad Internet Marketing Sites out there and with my current involvement in Search Engine Marketing I feel, if I share my knowledge with the world, I can make a difference in helping others Market their websites effectively!

To darin keep up the good works

Posted on February 26, 2007 by Dexter Panganiban

google_ad_section_start–>

How to make your digg count on your post and giving access to your reader to immidiately digg your post. Well, after seeing other bloggers do this. I have tried some experimentation how to do it and it goes like this.

1) Submit the blog post you have made to Digg so you could have the first count.

2) Then after submission to digg, Digg will give you a URL directing to the digg post that you have made

3) Copy the URL

4) Edit your post ( the one you have submitted to digg ) and incorporate this code

<div class=”entry”>
<div class=”snap_preview”>
<p><iframe style=”padding-right: 0pt; padding-left: 4px; background: rgb(255,255,255) 0% 50%; float: right; margin-bottom: 5px; padding-bottom: 2px; margin-left: 10px; padding-top: 4px; moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial” src=”http://digg.com/api/diggthis.php?u=http://digg.com/design/Digg_s_count_on_your_post“ frameborder=”0″ width=”55″ scrolling=”no” height=”82″></iframe></p>
<p> </p></div></div>

5) Change the URL in red with the URL you have copied in # 3. Then Publish

Then you have it the live count of your digg post. Hope this help. If you any other method let me know.

Posted on February 16, 2007 by Dexter Panganiban

google_ad_section_start–>

There is a new Blog advertising network that I found out via Dosh Dosh post Bloglinkr – A Blog advertising network below is their blog explanation on how it works. Although as of this moment it is not yet started. But still by visiting their site you could input your details so that they may contact you when they release the beta.

What if you had advertising that your readers actually wanted to click on?
That’s exactly what they’ll get when you use bloglinkr…because all of the advertisers on bloglinkr are other blogs. You select the categories that you want your readers to see, and instead of content-less sales pitches and discounted products, your readers will see links to blogs in the categories you’ve selected …and you’ll get paid for each click. You’ll even get paid when people click ads on blogs that you’ve referred to bloglinkr.
You’ll get more click-throughs with bloglinkr because your readers will actually be interested in the content you want them to click on.
What if you could advertise your blog, increase your backlinks, raise your search engine position, and generate more traffic to your site at a price any blogger can afford?
We’re keeping bloglinkr ads cheap. That way you can get started on a minimal budget, and continue to market your blog month after month without having to have venture capital funding to make it happen. You’ll get more click-throughs and backlinks for your money with bloglinkr. Get started with as little as $25 and recieve hundreds of backlinks, clicks and visitors every month.

We will see what will this new application can do for us bloggers and net users.
