It’s traffic war!!

And if you are smart you want to fight with the right weapons.

There are millions of webmasters out there interested in getting their websites just in front of yours. Would you like the bad or the good news first?

The bad news is that most of those webmasters are very experienced and have lined up hundreds, if not thousands of links to their websites. They’ve been all over the web,,, twice.

The good news is that one webmaster or even a small team of them can only work very efficiently on a small selection of keywords. The combination of words is (almost) infinite, that’s the good news.

That means that there are unused great keywords or expressions relating to your business that will attract the targeted traffic to your website.

Get on with the job, read http://www.riches.com.au/choosing-keywords.htm this website seems to be a good starting point:

- the keywords nobody uses that will bring no traffic.

Feel free to ask any questions related to the choice of keywords here in the comments section.

Ever been to a market? A fish market or a street market selling such things as vegetables and fruit? It’s a very special world, lively and busy where all market players are pushing each others in order to get the best spot.

Internet is very similar to a street market in many ways. There are a couple of keywords that really would work very well for your business.
Type your favorite keywords in Google and heck the number of results sitting there: MILLIONS!

You are only the new guy. You had no idea you’d have to queue behind millions of already-existing websites standing there, in front of your customers and proud to be in the first pages of Google results.

Are you going to queue? No, it’s Traffic War!!!

This is the best topic ever discussed on internet: Moving your shop from a back alley to the main street.
