"What You Did Wrong With Your Domain
Names!" by Mark Kessler
Trying to improve search engine rankings is just like a
rubics cube. A puzzle that can keep you occupied for hours.
How many times have you heard "They keep changing the rules?,"
and the frustrating part is...they don't even tell you what
the rules are in the first place!
It's a proven fact,
in trying to improve search engine rankings, that growing your
site thru link popularity, by slowly acquiring incoming
quality links, adding small amounts of fresh relevant content
on a regular basis, using proper keyword density and
placement, along with making your site "sticky" so your
visitor's stay longer.
But now, there's something else
that you have to know about! (and this is a big
but!)
Google is starting to weigh in heavy on domain
names. Not what your domain is, or how long you've had it.
Google wants to know how long you plan on keeping it, as in,
how long is it registered for!
They've begun NOT giving
as much consideration to domains registered for just a year,
thinking they might be spammers, making a quick hit and then
they're out of here. If they see you're registered for 5
years, then you must be a serious business that has planned on
being around for quite a long time.
I live about a five
iron outside of DC and made my living on the radio. Helen
Thomas, one of the all-time great White House correspondents,
would always be chosen by President Reagan to ask questions at
press conferences. Here's why:..She found out that the
President had a fondness for the color red. So, Helen started
wearing a red blazer to press conferences and he would always
pick her out of a press room packed with other
reporters.
So, in other words... put a red blazer on
your web site, drop 50 bucks registering your domain name for
several years and show Google, along with other search
engines, you are serious about sticking around and wanting to
improve search engine rankings.
