Selecting Domain Name

Everyone on the internet is always in search of domain names which are good easy to remember and available for registration because as of today already 96,787,761 domain names are redistered [source - Total domain names count]
Now while registering a domain name many people always look out for keyword stuffed domain names like www.mainkeywords.com but lets assume every 1 word and 2 word domains are all registered. Here are some suggestions while registering a domain name.
1. Always register a .com domain name rather than a .info domain name if you are really serious about your project.
2. Never book a domain name like www.applyforacreditcardonline.info just for targetting a keyword like “Apply credit card online” because keywords stuffing is not always suggested.
3. If you are looking for a credit card related domain name just give a search in google for the keyword – “Apply credit card” and you will find websites having the following title – Credit Card Applications, Compare Credit Card, Online Credit Card, Credit Card Offers, Online Credit Card, capital one credit card, Bank of america credit card, best credit cards, citibank credit card and lots more from which you need to reshuffle the keywords back and front and try to make a good combination using some additional words if necessary like – top, best, zoom, pedia, szoom, hub, shub, city, scity, time, stime, times, depot, sdepot, plus, plus, book, sbook, world, sworld, gears, base, guru, brains, minds, talk, 9, ideas and some more suffix or prefix keywords you would like to add. These keywords gives your domain name a professional look because the 4-6 words domains or hiphen domains dont look professional.
4. Here is a example domain name which we registered when we were looking for a domain name related to Health Tips – www.helpfulhealthtips.com which now Ranks #2 for the highly competitive keyword – “Health Tips” – Results 1 – 10 of about 250,000,000 for Health Tips. This is a clear example of why to add some related keyword in the suffix or prefix of a domain name.
5. Always register a domain name for a longer period if you are looking for a serious project on the website and dont signup with offers like 1$/year domain name registrations which companies like yahoo.com offer since they charge heavily on renewal time.
6. Dont buy expired domain names just by seeing their old page rank, because page rank does not help in long term and the expired domain would have got many previous penalities. Always go for a new fresh domain name registration or a domain name from a good seller which has a good archieve record with no search engines ban due to previous black hat optimization.
7.Go for a local TLD registration of you are targetting local visitors, for example if you are targeting visitors who would come to your website in search of gadgets information go for a domain name like gadgetsinformation.in

ow to Submit Tax Information for Google Adsense Account

Adsense is an ad serving service for web-masters to show related ads in their site and earn from a CPC factor. Most Indian bloggers use adsense to show ads on their blog. There are a lots of guide to adsense basics, adsense setup, etc all information in Adsense Category.
Some of us earn much from adsense and make blogging our primary work, and some of us uses adsense as a extra earnings. But these earnings are tax payable. As a beginner, someone is curious about many factors, as will his earnings pre tax-deducted, or there’s need of PAN card, or how to pay tax to government, etc etc. The best thing here is that we don’t have to pay tax directly. We have to pay tax on our total income as it is some legal income, and the tax amount depends on how much you earn.
For individuals, the tax is free for earnings upto 1.40 lacs p.s, which is a very high limit for casual bloggers who earn through adsense a little pretty-some amount, only huge earners (pro bloggers) have to think about it. But as Google itself is in USA, it confirms from us if there is some US activities belonging to our site, content for which they will deduct and report tax information. We, Indian bloggers sign-up using India address, but Google re-confirms it from us after our unpaid earnings reach an amount of 10$ (actually more than 9$). We can get our payment by cheque once our earnings reach at-least 100$. We need to provide tax information or else our earnings will be on hold, and we cannot encash them, even we reach payment level. For providing correct tax information, follow the below screen-shots.

1. Go to Home–>Payments
2. Click on “Please submit your tax information”
3. Click on “Submit your information now” at next page
4. Give the three selection as “No” (one will come after at same page) and click on continue
5. Here is your confirmation page. There in the box, enter your name and submit the information, it’s your legal signature

Adsense Payments Settings

Submit Tax Information

Tax Info US Citizen

No US Activities

Verify Adsense PIN Number

Now we have to enter adsense PIN, which is mailed to us in our registered address. PIN mailer is sent after balance reaches 10$.

1. After you get our PIN in an envelope, follow following instructions,
2. Go to Home–>Payments
3. Click on “Please enter your PIN”

Then verify your address by giving the pin you got by mail. The page shows your PIN generation status and date. (Note: If you have not received your PIN within 3 weeks, you may request that it be resent.)

45 Link Building Tips To Help You Promote Your Blog

Get­ting Links for Writ­ing Content

1. Write con­tent that is use­ful — Writ­ing resource­ful con­tent will always attract links, hands down. If you write an arti­cle that is over­flow­ing with use­ful and resource­ful infor­ma­tion — peo­ple will link to it.
2. Don’t for­get track­backs — This handy fea­ture for Word­Press can be great way of return­ing the com­pli­ment for a ded­i­cated link.
3. Remind your read­ers to link to you — After each posts, just throw in a quick reminder that your arti­cle can be socially book­marked or linked to.
4. Make a Top “X” List — Alex’s post on “100 Lists To Become A Bet­ter Blog­ger” is the most suc­cess­ful post on Blo­gus­sion, to-date. This just goes to prove how much peo­ple love “lists posts” such as your “Top X [Something]”
5. Debunk a Myth — There’s only one thing bet­ter than com­ing up with an idea, is to prove some­one else one wrong. Peo­ple love oppo­si­tion and to see a debate bub­ble up, so don’t be afraid to chal­lenge other people’s opinions.
6. Write with a touch of con­spir­acy — Just rein­forc­ing tip #5. If you can cre­ate that atmos­phere of retal­i­a­tion, it will always raise a few eyebrows.
7. Spread the Love — Ded­i­cate a post or two per week to link to other blogger’s posts that you found use­ful. More often than not, they will tell their read­ers “Mr.X linked to my post, how cool!”
8. Trade arti­cles with web­mas­ters — Sim­i­lar to guest post­ing, just swap arti­cles with a fel­low webmaster.
9. Release a Press Release — This guide shows you how to write + sub­mit a good Press Release.

Freebies/Giveaways for Link-Baiting

10. Hold a con­test with an incen­tive. Con­tests are great for link-baiting because when peo­ple talk about it, there will always be “Check it out here” tagged along with it.
11. Release a free design. If you can make/buy a cus­tom WP-Theme then release it for free to your guests, you can really kick off on a viral mar­ket. Just don’t for­get the “Designed by [YOUR LINK]”
12. Release a free plu­gin. This serves a sim­i­lar pur­pose as a design, but not so much with a direct back-link. Instead, if your plu­gin is use­ful, the incom­ing links will just grow exponentially.
13. When run­ning a con­test, reward your ref­er­ees that bring the most refer­rals. This will encour­age them to blog about your contest.

Con­nect­ing With Communities

14. Become active and post on rel­e­vant forums
15. Become active and com­ment on rel­e­vant blogs.
16. Try not to for­get your sig­na­ture on forums, oth­er­wise the whole thing is an epic fail.
17. When com­ment­ing on blogs, try to use post URLs instead of just your Blog URL — This can help reg­u­late your links evenly amongst your blog, and not just solely to your front page.
18. DON’T spam com­mu­ni­ties with your links to your site, offer a rea­son for them to visit and con­tribute with a purpose.
19. Sub­mit your blog to direc­to­ries — These are still help­ful when it comes to get­ting indexed, espe­cially these direc­to­ries listed here.
20. Search up DoFol­low Blogs/Forums — These will carry the most sig­nif­i­cant back-links.
21. Browse Craigslists and they can pro­vide you with a free or cheap link.
22. Build on your Tech­no­rati Profile
23. Become a Spon­sor — Whether it be a theme, whole web­site or a small project; the spon­sors always get mentioned.
24. Run for Char­ity, and request oth­ers to help spread the word.
25. DON’T spam. This tip can­not be rein­forced enough. A deleted com­ment will server no purpose.

Direc­to­ries, Social Book­mark­ing + Dis­cus­sion Groups.

26. Write con­tent for Arti­cle direc­to­ries — Pub­lish con­tent for direc­to­ries such as eZin­eArti­cles, GoAr­ti­cles or iSnare. In the “About Author’s” area, you can leave a link to your website.
27. Build a Squidoo Page  — It’s easy and if you have the time to develop it, it can be very author­i­ta­tive. If you don’t there’s heaps of ser­vices out there to help you out.
28. Join Dis­cus­sions over at Yahoo! Answers — Pro­vid­ing use­ful answers, along with a link is an easy way to earn a back-link.
29. There’s also Google Groups — It’s almost the same as Yahoo! Answers, but owned by Google.
30. Sub­mit your voice on Digg — First build a solid pro­file, where you have a net­work of loyal dig­gers. If you can hit the Digg front page, you are likely to get linked to by a lot of web-masters.
31. Build on your Twit­ter pro­file then link to your site using your “Bio Area.”
32. Tweet about your posts using Twit­ter, then request retweets from your followers.
33. Offer a “Tweet This Post” link on every post your write, this will make Tweet­ers eas­ier to tweet about your article.

Direct Link Build­ing

34. Con­tact your fel­low blog­gers with a per­son­al­ized email — ask­ing for an rec­i­p­ro­cal link exchange. How­ever, keep this to a min­i­mal and be very selec­tive in who you choose to trade with.
35. Post around on forums ask­ing for rec­i­p­ro­cal link exchanges, but yet again be warned on your selection.
36. If you are a part of orga­ni­za­tions, clubs or schools — Ask them if they can link to you, because these types of web­sites are more often than not; authoritative.
37. DON’T ask Dar­ren Rowse, Shoe­Money, Matt Cutts or Yahoo, MSN and Google for back-links. It’s just a waste of time, espe­cially the last three “contacts”

Paid Link Building

38. Buy a Review — Most sites that offer reviews will nat­u­rally link to the reviewed product/site.
39. Many web­mas­ters buy links on pop­u­lar blogs for author­ity, even though it’s against the Google TOS (Use at your own risk)
40. Rent links from oth­ers web­site — Text-Link-Ads is most likely your best option.

Using Blo­gus­sion for Link Building

41 Leave a com­ment — All our com­ments are do-follow, so the link you chose as your URL will get link-love automatically.
42. Top Com­men­ta­tors  — As you can see on the side­bar, we use this awe­some plu­gin. Every month, our most con­tribut­ing mem­bers will be rewarded with a link.
43. We use Com­mentLuv — Every com­ment you post, will carry a link to your lat­est blog posts.
44. Link to our posts — We uti­lize the uses of ‘track­backs.’ Hence any links to our posts, will auto­mat­i­cally be rewarded with a back-link to them! So, Why not share this post with your read­ers and followers?
45. Buy a Paid Review — We link to our reviewed sites/products.
