Dominate your keywords’ search engine results with web 2.0

How would you like your websites to dominate the first three pages of search engine results for your target keywords? I won’t make you pay a large price for this “secret”. Find out how to boost traffic by capturing ranking keyword sites for free.

What is Web 2.0?

Web 2.0 refers to the variety of websites with user generated content that are gaining high Pagerank and search engine results. Examples include Youtube, Myspace, and Squidoo. These sites are authority sites with high Pagerank, so user generated content on them often rank on the first page of search engine results. In fact, these sites are basically 100% user generated, which means you have a free open platform for creating high ranking sites.

People have been taking advantage of Web 2.0 internet properties to promote affiliate offers. Often, this appears in the form of spam or other low quality content. Google has been penalizing some of these sites, but they still remain viable platforms for fast ranking.

Ranking for keyword search engine results with Web 2.0, for free!

Many Web 2.0 platforms use nofollow links, which means you can add your link to the site, but it will not help you main website rank better in the search engine results. However, this is not a problem. What you want to do instead is to get your domain name out there, regardless of whether your actual site ranks well.

Say you are targeting the keyword “newbie affiliate marketer” and have a website called newbieaff.com (unregistered as of this writing). Then, what you would do is create websites on the various Web 2.0 properties. However, always remember to include newbieaff.com in your property names so that you visitor picks up on it.

For example, you can create a Youtube channel with the name newbieaffdotcom targeting your keywords. Post some affiliate tutorials. Next, create a Yahoo Groups call newbieaffdotcom, and post some relevant material. Then, create a Squidoo lens with newbieaffdotcom in the title, and so on.

If you do this, for moderately competitive keywords, you can expect to have your Web 2.0 properties dominating many of the results on the first couple of search engine result pages. And this cost you exactly 0 dollars!

What Web 2.0 properties to use for keyword SEO?

There are many Web 2.0 properties you can use for your keyword campaigns. The more you use, the better. The different kinds of Web 2.0 properties you will want to use are social bookmarks (Digg, Propeller, etc.), social networks (Blogger, Myspace, Squidoo, etc.), and media sites (Youtube, Metacafe, etc.). You can also consider traditional article marketing (ezinearticles, goarticles, etc.) as a limited form of the same idea. However, if you combine all of these different methods, you will get the best results.
