Coffee Break: The Right WORD is Key to Your Success
July 8, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment
The question of driving interested traffic to your website or blog is one that all webmasters share.
Watching some webmasters clean up while your site languishes on the vine is a terrible feeling — like being the last kid picked in a schoolyard game of kickball.
You may as well be the ball!
Admittedly, there is no shortage of “experts” out there who offer all manner of formulas, tips and strategies that will drive hordes of traffic your way — so let me ask you this:
Do you want tire kickers and freebie seekers, or do you want buyers?
I don’t know about you – but I choose the latter.
You see, many of those same “experts” would have you believe that the holy grail of traffic domination lies solely in identifying as many high-traffic keywords as you can.
Frankly, that’s a load of crap. If you want to attract traffic that is actually seeking out what you have to offer — folks who are not phobic about opening up their wallets and making a purchase — then you need to focus your efforts on those keywords that deliver the goods.
After all, as the saying goes — “money talks, and BS walks.”
A couple of colleagues of mine, Kathe Lucas and Denise Hall, have created a no-holds-barred 40-page report that will quickly get you up to speed and dominating the “money talks” keyword segment of your niche. Best of all, you can snap up this little gem for less than the price of a pair of fancy coffee drinks.
And as you well know, I NEVER joke when it comes to caffeine.
My only gripe about this report is the sub-title. In light of all the whoopla surrounding Michael Jackson’s passing, the books’ sub-title of “ABC…Easy as 1-2-3” did make me cringe a little.
But I am willing to overlook that, and you should, too. You can read all about this report by visiting this link.

When you create articles, whether they are for your own site or for directory submission, they should be written with specific keywords and phrases in mind.
A website visitor will most likely arrive at your site after having been directed there by a keyword search on their favorite search engine.
