Have you ever done a search and wondered how a business consistently shows up high on several search engines – Google, Bing, Yahoo etc.? 

Search Engine Optimization is the process of improving the volume and quality of traffic to a website from search engines via Search Engine Results Pages (SERP's). Generally, the earlier a website is presented in the search results, or the higher it “ranks,” the more visitors will visit that site.

On-Site SEO efforts are ideally incorporated into the process of website design and development. On-Site SEO primarily involves editing the site textual content and HTML coding to increase its relevance to specific keywords and keyword phrases.  This greatly increases the likelihood of the site showing up high on search engine.  Using various software tools, the SEO expert will develop page titles, keywords, and descriptions and add these to the page code. H1 and H2 headers as well as title tags and image tags also are utilized. 

Off-Site SEO is the process of acquiring links back to your website page(s) from relevant high-ranking websites to improve your ranking amongst search engines. If other sites link to yours and yours links to others a symbiotic relationship and higher ranking is achieved for all involved sites.  A variety of techniques and software tools are frequently used to obtain these high-ranking "back links.”  Off-Site SEO efforts have become an increasingly important component to high search engine rankings.

A CMS or Content Management System is used for the control and editing of content. Content includes electronic files, images and video based media, audio files, electronic documents and web text. The main concept behind a CMS is to make these files available for editing inter-office or over the Internet. A CMS is often used to archive documents as well. Many companies use a CMS to organise and store files in public form. Companies using a CMS can share content with others easily, as most systems are server based. In the case of Joomla it is a CMS based on a web server. A CMS being available on the Internet makes it available to you and your customers constantly and across the whole globe, so, long as there is Internet access. A Joomla CMS is one of the many Content Management Systems (CMS) that includes a "workflow process."

A "Workflow" process is the ability to move documents through a business process of approval. Some Content Management Systems provide the ability to control business flows and processes, like email alerts and automated business document flows. This is ideally a collaborative creation of documents. A CMS or document management system provides the business a way to control and publish to and from group of documents in a logical and organised manner, content, like images and mulitmedia items.

Joomla is a web content management system (CMS) and is primarily used to publish content to a specified website. Typical Joomla modules may be seen here.

The current economic recession has many people thinking about ways to make money on the internet through e-commerce.

What is e-commerce?  Basically e-commerce encompasses any product or service that is sold over the internet.  Amazon is a popular example of a business that epitomizes the definition of e-commerce.  It is important to note that as technology changes, the e-commerce definition changes as well to accommodate the growing trends.  For example, products and services bought or sold on mobile phones would also fall under the umbrella of e-commerce.  One would open up an online e-commerce store to promote their products to millions of hungry consumers shopping online.

While most people think about selling traditional products or services, such as marketing their small business, providing virtual assistance services, or selling books, some people will engage in more creative uses of e-commerce like affiliate marketing or generating ad revenue.

The reason why Social media networking is a huge success is because of its Friend-Of-A-Friend (FOAF) trust model similar to word of mouth (WOM). Studies reveal that, while 14% People Trust Ads, 76% of People trust consumer recommendations for purchase decisions. The FOAF model enables users to interact with network users to whom they are not otherwise directly connected. Users can establish different rules of engagement for different types of connections in their network; the closer the connection to a user in terms of degrees of separation, the more trusted that user is. This is the key difference between Social networking and traditional SEO or PPC strategies. Users maintain direct connections to their friends, but they also have some level of access to the direct connections their friends maintain to other people.

Public social networking services such as Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn, and Friendster can be valuable sales, marketing and support tools if you know how to effectively apply them for your business.
