04-10-09 Xtream Global Marketing Member News*

From the xtream iChannel: (*aka The Not So Daily News)

Welcome to all our new members! We are rolling along quite nicely in the launch of our new Xtream Membership site and Digital Products Library. We have had a couple of minor hiccups, which seem to be resolved.

Very Important: Affiliates, please check your status and ensure it is correct. Also, please check your paypal subscription and ensure it is still active. We had a couple cancellations lately, and sometimes that is initiated on paypal. If your subscription was cancelled and you wish to restart under the pre-launch special, please contact me so I can send you that link. Otherwise, you will need to restart under the new system.

Download the xtream iChannel. The iChannel is a direct-to-desktop publishing solution that allows you to get news on your computer. It is not a mailing list. Simply download the free software and add xtream to your ichannels. When Xtream publishes news and member updates, you will get them delivered to your computer when you are online. It is an easy and unobtrusive way to stay current with Xtream. Go to xtream iChannel to get the software.

Set it and forget about it.
Xtream Subscribers are set up for ‘Set and Forget’ advertising. Set your ads up onboard, download your auto tools, walk away. Subscribers also get upgrades or extra perks at many off-board venues, plus access to the majority of the digital product downloads.

Onboard Ads:
Xtream has onboard banner, mini-banner, and text advertising available. Go to Manage Ads in your back office to add, delete, or manage ads. These ads are seen on the surf as well as on pages through out the site itself.

Xtream is plugged into the VS-Ten traffic exchange swap network. This means YOUR ads are seen at hundreds of other traffic exchanges beyond the onboard traffic exchange specific to Xtream Members. We also have the onboard traffic exchange for your sites. Again, your sites are shown off site.

For webmasters and bloggers, we also have codes for exchanges – banners and text ads. This means you place our java script on your website or blog that you control. It picks up banners and text ads from our system. You get credits for displaying those ads on YOUR website or blog.

The onboard advertising system is driven by credits. Free members can surf and promote to earn credits to run your ads. You can also purchase advertising as well in our Credit Shop. Affiliate members receive an ample supply of credits to fuel their advertising every month as long as their subscription is maintained.

Network Resources:
In your Members Area, go to Network Resources to find internet advertising specialties such as email, link, seo, and more traffic. You will also find a site which houses some of the sites Affiliate members receive upgrades at, and a site which lists some of the sites all members receive special offers or bonuses.

Under the Network Resources section you will find links to VS-Ten, Link Ring, TrEx, Building Blocks, and the Win Network. Good Sites is a place holder for now. Eventually we will add links to many free resources which either assists you in your marketing efforts, or as recommended resources such as Registry Cleaners, Anti-Viri programs, and etc.

Digital products Library:
Affiliate members have access to digital products in the Library based on membership level. We will periodically release a product to the Free Members. We are working on adding digital products for individual sale. Individual items will be linked to commissions. We anticipate adding individual digital products for sale in May.
I highly encourage everyone to add their Xtream Members referral links, banners, and text ads to your onboard advertising and the traffic exchange. Because your ads are shown on hundreds of other venues, this is a great opportunity to promote your Xtream Business to a wide audience.

Commissions and your Xtream Business:
Free members earn one-time commissions on items purchased by those they directly sponsored. They do not earn commissions on recurring subscriptions. Affiliates earn one-time and recurring commissions 5 levels deep.

Matrix:
Xtream has a Matrix that is unlimited in width, and goes 5 levels deep.

In other news:
… Clown Hits and Auto Surf Clicks (both run by Douglas of Xtream Members) has networked with Xtream. He offers upgrades to Gold account for Xtream Subscribers and extra bonus credits to Free members for those who sign up on the AMCS traffic exchange links listed above. Join, then email Douglas for your incentives.
…Our own Xtream Professional member Lis Rooney has added a TrEx traffic exchange http://wildrose-xtream-traffic.com to the mix as well. Contact Lis for your incentives.

Getting your website Search Engine Friendly:
We are using seo tools found at the Xtream Practical SEO website in class and then the attendees will download and use the webceo desktop seo tool outside of the webinar. In session we use this tool page rank analyzer to see where our websites rank http://www.seocentro.com/tools/search-engines/keyword-position.html in three search engines: Google, Yahoo, and Live.

To see if a webpage is actually search engine friendly we use a free online seo meta tag analyzer, http://www.seocentro.com/tools/search-engi...g-analyzer.html

This free seo tool looks at four main elements: Title, Description, Keywords, and Author and in another section analyzes keyword density and then the number of urls listed on the page itself. It gives you a good, solid, platform in which to use to get your site search engine friendly.

Webceo gives you an even more indepth look at your webpage and gives even more detailed suggestions.

The most common errors on webpages where titles and descriptions being too long and too many keywords in the meta tags. Some pages had too many links on them to be considered Search Engine Friendly.

Optimizing your page for your targeted key words:
After looking at whether our overall website was considered search engine friendly, we then looked at whether or not our web sites where actually optimized for the key word or key words we where in fact targeting. For this we used http://www.seocentro.com/tools/seo/page-keyword-analyzer.html. This free seo tool reports on 5 main elements: title, description, first H tag, body, domain name.

The importance of H tags:
Over the course of the past two sessions, many of us have found that by simply adding the H tag - whether an H1, H2, or H3 - our ranking in the Search Engines improved almost immediately! Most scripts as well as web design pages do not use H tags, so you oftentimes need to add those manually yourself to your webpages. This is very easy to do by simply going into your cpanel and opening the html editor for whatever page it is you need to add the code to.

Find an H code you need to add on your webpages at the Xtream Global Marketing practical seo website

Replace that which is applicable to your website including targeted keywords in the code and place on your website. You can also center the tag by using the additional center code.

Note, you can change the font size and color in this particular code to better fit your webpage. as well. The H tag serves as a summary of your website and should include your major target keywords. YOu can have more than one H tag, but typically the Search Engine Bot reads the first one it encounters on your site and may not always record the other H tags.

Eliminate Stop Words:
Dave Williams presented on some other handy tips which he discovered by using WebCEO. One tip is to forgo using stop words in your titles and description meta tags. A typical Stop Word is the word and. While it is commonly used in a sentence, in your titles and meta tags it should be avoided as when the Search Engine Bots encounter them they literally stop reading and recording the rest of the information. They are fine in your content of course. Just eliminate stop words from your site title and in your description meta tags.

Place keywords in content at the end of your website:
According to WebCEO, the search engines actually look for your targeted keywords in the last 150 words in the content at the BOTTOM of your website. Many of us have started adding a short summary of our webpages right below the standard Copyright or Powered by Statement. This tactic does seem to work. I am experimenting with placing an H tag at the bottom as well.

The Xtream practical seo live webinar series is open to the public, is completely free, and any webmaster is welcome to join us. Please get the webinar software and other information from our Xtream webinar schedule website http://xtreammembers.com/schedule.html. We will not have session next Thursday 11-27-08 in observance of the U.S. Thanksgiving Holiday and will resume the following week.

We are using seo tools found at http://xtreammembers.com/seo.html in class and then the attendees will download and use the webceo desktop seo tool outside of the webinar.

Thursday we focused on seeing where our websites rank. We used the page rank analyzer http://www.seocentro.com/tools/search-engines/keyword-position.html as a quick look into our placement in three search engines: Google, Yahoo, and Live.

We then asked the question:

Is my webpage search engine friendly?

To find out the answer, we used a free online seo meta tag analyzer, http://www.seocentro.com/tools/search-engines/metatag-analyzer.html

This tool looks at four main elements: Title, Description, Keywords, and Author and in another section analyzes keyword density and then the number of urls listed on the page itself. It gives you a good, solid, platform in which to use to get your site search engine friendly. Webceo gives you an even more indepth look at your webpage and gives even more detailed suggestions.

After looking at whether our overall website was considered search engine friendly, we then looked at whether or not our web sites where actually optimized for the key word or key words we where in fact targeting. For this we used http://www.seocentro.com/tools/seo/page-keyword-analyzer.html.

This free seo tool reports on 5 main elements: title, description, first H tag, body, domain name. Many of us found that we do not have the H tag. Most scripts as well as web design pages do not use H tags, so you have to manually add those yourselves. This is very easy to do by simply going into your cpanel and opening the html editor for whatever page it is you need to add the code to. The H code you need to add below the head tag and the title tag in the html of your webpage is found at http://xtreammembers.com/seo.html as that code interfers with this blog post.

While you are at it, you might as well add in these additional tags also. To get those tags please go to http://xtreammembers.com/seo.html as that code interfers with this blog post.

As Vern pointed out in session, if you are in the practice of updating your website frequently, you can in fact change the Revisit-after to a smaller interval. On the flip side, if you do NOT make frequent changes, you may want to bump that number up.

Note to those using the Amcs traffic exchange scripts, pt-scripts, and possibly other scripts as well. You will find that these scripts do not properly configure the meta tags. I have a support question into Glen at Amcs on this. You can, however, add the H1 tag through Admin by going to your Front Page and adding in the code listed above. On the pt-scripts we will have to figure that out on our own as there is no longer anyone home for support on these.

Next week we continue the webinar series with a look to see the tweaks our webmasters made to their websites and then with Dave Williams presenting some additional tweaks and adjustments webmasters can make to their websites that really do work well.

This live webinar is open to the public and any webmaster is welcome to join us. Please get the webinar software and other information from our Xtream webinar schedule website http://xtreammembers.com/schedule.html. Looking forward to seeing YOU there!
