OK, so unless you’ve spent several hours with your nose buried in SEO forums and talking to various SEO gurus (or at least reading their blogs) you probably have no idea what optimizing your website involves. And if you did, there is a good chance that you have the WRONG idea from BAD advice.

I’m going to let you in on a few secrets. First of all, here is what optimizing your site for search engines does NOT involve:

1. Submitting your sites to search engines
2. Slapping meta tags on your pages
3. Measuring the density of your keywords in your content (Say what?!)
4. Filling your pages with tons of keyword phrases whether related to your site’s content or otherwise
5. Creating doorway pages.
6. Hiring someone who does any of the things mentioned above.

So, what exactly DOES optimizing your website for search engines involve?

First, I recommend you do your research to find out what keyword phrases people are actually using to find your product. Then name your pages appropriately.

For example, if you are selling baby slings using a Shop Kit Plus site, you might do your research and discovered that there were 472 searches for “baby slings” in the past 90 days and 426 for the phrase “baby sling.” However, the term “baby carrier” received 583 searches. So, I would recommend using the “baby carrier” phrase as well as the “baby sling” phrase.

Second, you need to name your pages using the keyword phrases you found. So, if you’re using the Shop Kit Plus, you would name your product “Red Widget Baby Carrier.” In the Shop Kit Plus, this will give your single item page the same name as the product.

On your product information pages, you might have a page with care instructions. So you might name the page “Baby Carrier Fabric Care.” This will give the page, at the top of the browser, the same name.

In the Shop Kit Plus, I would also recommend hiding the page title in the content area itself, then writing your own headline, using the keyword phrases, but written with your human readers in mind.

And third, the most important part: Write your content with your human visitors in mind. It must be compelling and either informative or persuasive, depending on the purpose of your page (sales or education).

This is optimizing your site in a nutshell. There are several methods of offsite optimization, but we’ll get into those later…

A group of web sites that display each other’s ad banners in exchange for credits. The more impressions you display, the more credits you receive. The credits are converted into ad spaces for you to display your ad banner on participating websites.

I don’t recommend using banner exchanges, because you end up sending people to other’s websites. If you’re going to do that, go with adsense or join an affiliate program. You’ll at least be compensated for the traffic you send away.

Do you want to know what “bandwidth” really is? Does the term “search engine optimization” mean nothing to you?

Perhaps you hear experienced work at home moms in your circle of friends using these terms and you’re embarrased to ask what they mean. I completely understand.

And that is why I contributed to the Internet Marketing Definitions project created by my friend Alice Seba.

As I’m sure you know, well-written content that meets the needs of your site visitors is the key to increasing your website traffic. If you’re trying to write all of your own content, you’re going to end up chained to your computer. Not exactly the reason you wanted to stay at home with your kids, huh?

You may think that the only way to increase your VRE (internet marketing speak for “virtual real estate”) without a negative impact on your family is to hire writers to create much of your content. If you’re like me, you’ve been told to go to Guru.com or Elance.com and hire someone who is “affordable.” You may have even done this — only to come back with content that isn’t well written or very informative. Perhaps you found someone who does an excellent job of writing — but charges $20 to $40 per hour. Ouch!

So what do you do?

This is where All Mom Content comes into play. All Mom Content is run by my colleagues and mentors Alice Seba and Mila Sidman, both of whom are work at home moms. They saw a need for affordable PLR content, geared towards mom’s searching for information on the Internet.

Here are a few key features of All Mom Content:

• All Mom Content articles are written by people with a command of the English language.
• All articles are mom-approved and come from the perspective of the intended target market.
• Membership is limited in number.
• 30 articles, 10 product reviews and 10 recipes each month.
• 30-day, no questions asked, money-back guarantee
