Are you ready to increase your sales conversions by 119% this year?
You can achieve this in a year when the country is in a recession and offline advertising spending (newspapers, radio, TV) will be cut back 5-16%. Conversely, Internet advertising will increase by at least 9%, which is less than previous years but still on the plus side of the equation.
Back to that great great sales conversion increase…the new formula is:
Display Ads + Search = Increased Sales Conversions

Link building is tough, unless you have something like a video that has gone viral and brought in a stupendous number of links in a short time.
The rest of us trudge along, building back links slowly and carefully, keeping them natural looking and raising no alarms. You can, of course, get involved in a link farm or a three-way link exchange, or buy a thousand links for $100 from an outsourcing firm, but those typically get found out by Google sooner or later, and then the Google smack-down happens and you have to start all over.

With the advent of the iPhone and now the G-1 Google Android, more people are shopping online via their cell phones.
Don’t think you ever will buy something with your phone? I thought that too until a few days ago. My new G-1 scans barcodes, finds better deals online, and sends me to the site to make a purchase. Couldn’t be easier, and I love the convenience!
Using Andy Moore’s Wordpress Mobile Plugin or a php file to detect mobile devices in your blog will make it come up beautifully on phones - try SEO Diva if you have Internet access with your phone and you’ll see what I mean.
