  • Writing Articles to boost your sites traffic
    If your articles are of similar content to your site then there will be a benefit.

    Consider the following: 10 articles submitted to 10 article sites means 100 links. 100 articles submitted to 100 sites means 10,000 links, and that is before the articles are republished. Each article should include a short biography with a working hyperlink, ideally giving permission to visitors to use the article on their own site, provided the article and link remain intact.
  • UK Domain Name Alternative
    If you've tried to register a domain name recently, you've noticed; all the really good .com names are gone.


    Your Business Name as Your Domain Name

    With the benefits of instant recognition and a bump in the search engines for anyone searching for your business specifically, using your business name as your domain name has a remarkably positive effect. Your business name should be the first .uk.com domain name you look for. Cyber squatting, or taking someone's name or business name to resell back to them at a handsome profit, is an increasing problem.

    If at all possible, buy both your business name and your keyword for domain names, and talk to your host about having both URLs point to the same business website.
  • Choosing a Great UK Domain Name
    The first, and most critical, step for registering your domain name is choosing the right one. The perfect domain name is memorable, unique, easy to spell, and will rank high in searches. Most of the best domain names being registered today are a company name, a person's name, or two-word combinations.

    Try to use a domain name with your keyword in it. If you have a dog-oriented business, the happydogs/happy-dogs domain names are perfect.

    Why? Acceptable alternatives to these extensions are the .uk.com and the .net extensions. If more than one of these extensions is available for your domain name, you should buy them all; domain names are not expensive, and you can point multiple ones at your web site. Buying multiple similar names ensures that you keep the competition away from your name, and that any search for your domain name will bring you up.
