Web Design: Google Penalties and How to Avoid Them
Posted by: | CommentsWhile studying Tom Antion’s book, Click, The Ultimate Guide to Electronic Marketing for Speakers, and his three-prong approach to Internet marketing, I came across a section on Google penalties and how to avoid them. The book describes five common penalties, the causes and what you can do to make sure your website isn’t penalized. Whether you are having a web designer create a new website for you or you have an existing website, arming yourself with this knowledge can prevent a lot of grief in the long run. It’s definitely a case of what you don’t know can hurt you.
The book cautions against the practices listed below:
- Linking to sites that are banned or penalized.
- Having dozens and dozens of new links coming to the exact same page over again with the same anchor text.
- Adding links to your site too fast.
- Running more than one site off a single IP address, and heavily cross linking those sites.
- Stuffing keywords into your website
- Piling up excessive reciprocal links, directory submissions, backlinks from unrelated or low-quality sites.
- Using too many links from sites that do not match your theme or industry niche.
- Using stagnant linking strategies, obvious over-optimization and just general neglect.
- Buying your way into the search results with paid links or link farm.
- Being heavy on AdSense but light in content.
- Using over optimization, poor or irrelevant link schemes and poor content.
To learn more about these common practices and the how to avoid the penalties Google imposes for using them, see http://www.antion.com/click.htm. If you would like to know more about designing your website using acceptable webmaster principles, visit http://imtcva.org/program/curriculum/.

Internet Marketing Careers: Videos and Production
Posted by: | Comments
I’ll bet by now there isn’t anyone on Earth that hasn’t seen a Youtube video.
People watch over 2 billion videos a day on Youtube and every minute over 24 hours of footage is uploaded. Not only is Youtube a fun place to just hang out and watch your favorite vids, it’s a great place to learn stuff. If I want to learn to run a certain software program or even how to repair my car, I search Youtube for the answers. It’s much easier to watch a video than to try and follow along in some document. The people who submit videos to Youtube come from all walks of life and varied age groups including 10 year old kids submitting skateboarding tricks to serious college students making independent films. But one group of video makers are growing faster than all of the rest…. companies.
From Target to Apple to BlendTec, companies large and small are using videos to market their products and services. Videos can create a brand name, answer customer service issues, advertise specials and just plain entertain the millions of people a day watching on Youtube. Video marketing has become one of the most cutting edge and powerful tools in a company’s strategy to advertise themselves and they pay good money to make and market these videos. This opens up a huge opportunity for you to get in on the ground floor of a new career field.
If this interests you, you have the whole world in front of you. And a distance learning education school such as IMTC can be the ticket to your new career. We cover all of the practical nuts-and-bolts training for things like video marketing, social media, search engine optimization and tons more.
