Copy is King

Monetising your websites content through syndication

I have carved out a niche for myself in not only providing versatile and growth orientated marketing strategies but also providing clients, post strategy with tools and connections via my network to leverage true value from the content they create via syndication.

The key to content is to make it relevant to a particular subject area (ideally a niche area), make the tone quasi-authoritative while also offering up rhetorical questions that are read by the reader as your effort to be open for comment thus, approachable and most of all unique.

Some of the most commercialised content on the web is not, as many would assume images and rich media (videos, podcasts etc) but rather a hybrid of BLOG style articles with some UGC (user generated content) elements.

After spending the last 12mths listening to a variety of media publishers and also content starved businesses, there is the need and I believe an opportunity for many online businesses to open up additional revenue streams via the introduction and by embracing the syndication of their content onto others.
If you would like to learn more or explore your own ability to syndicate your content onto others, please contact Shifted Pixels today as I would be only too happy to provide some counsel in this area.

Search engine keyphrase domain name relevancy

We have been experimenting with the power of search engine domain name relevancy.

For example, in our business, we want to be top 5 in google for a whole bunch of keyphrases.
This includes some fairly competitive search keyphrases that many other companies want to be in the top 5.

Apparantly, one of the interesting thing about google and other search engines is that they place significant relevancy to keyword matching within domain names.

So we have just purchased

http://www.SydneyWebMarketing.com – Sydney Web Marketing
http://www.SydneyVideoProduction.com – Sydney Video Production
http://www.SydneyAdvertisingAgency.com – Sydney Advertising Agency
http://www.SydneyMarketingAgency.com – Sydney Marketing Agency

In theory, this will help us jump our rankings. We have redirected these domains to our existing website, which most importantly does have lots of relevant content to these keywords.

We will post an update in a week or 2 and let you know how effective domain name relevancy is for Search Engine Rankings

If your interested in Search Engine Optimistation and internet marketing, give us a buzz, we want to talk to you :)
