Seekyt Article SEO
A webmasters job is never done! There is a constant need to find ways to get new high quality, relevant, links to your website. One of the more effective ways of building links at this time is using the various Web 2.0 sites like Squidoo, Hubpages, Qondio and others. There are a limited number of extremely high PR, High traffic web 2.0 sites out there, and being that it is good to get links from as many sites as you can in time you will need to turn to some of the lower PR, lower traffic sites. One of the better ones I have found is Seekyt.
While Seekyt is a rather low PR site it does get a decent amount of traffic and has some rather unique advantages over the other sites.
Key Features
:
- Signup is easy Click this link
Seekyt and fill in a user name, password and the capcha. Within a couple minutes your ready to post your first article
- Simple and quick to use - Most of the other sites take quite a while to set up the page before your article gets added. With Seekyt you are submitting single articles, using an easy formatter, and can get your article going in just a couple minutes (compared to at least a half hour to do a good job on a Squidoo Lens).
- Revenue Sharing – Seekyt has an interesting revenue sharing plan. You add your adsence code and Seekyt displays the adsence code on your article pages with your ID number 75% of the time and with their ID number 25% of the time. The payments come through your own adsence account and it is easy to track impressions as long as you set up a “URL Channel” for Seekyt.com in your account.
- Referral Program – This is the real kicker for me. With my websites I can send in huge number of referrals. As these referrals start adding their own articles, the Adsence ID percentage changes. On each one of these referrals, when an ad displays, 75% of the time it will use the ID of the guy that wrote the article, 20% of the time it will be me for referring him, and 5% goes to Seekyt. As I start to get 10s or 100s of people that I have referred and these people start writing articles I have the chance of making some pretty good money.
- You can add one or two links in the article and the links are DoFollow links. Don’t get carried away and your articles won’t get deleted.
Like all of these web 2.0 sites you get a profile page which displays your articles. I like to add a few offsite links to my profile pages to encourage the page to rise in PR and also possible start getting its own traffic. It is also a good idea to regularly comment on other’s articles which will give your profile a link from that article page as well as for a short time from the front page of the site.
When you first start adding articles the articles are ran through copyscape to make sure they are original and screened for quality. After that your articles are posted immediately, if you start posting spam it will get deleted by the owner who is on the site daily.
As with all of these sites you have a choice, post the lowest quality you think you can get away with, or post high quality articles that will get picked up by the search engines, possibly linked to naturally, and will actually make you some money. You can pretty much write about anything you want so I highly suggest you put a little effort out and write a fresh new article about something you know off the top of your head with very little research.
It is worth doing some keyword research so that the articles have a chance of gaining some rank in the search engine results. You can count the extra money you might make as a bonus to the backlinks that you get for your main site.
If you find an article gets picked up and start making you some money, it’s a good idea to throw a few links at it from other sites so that you increase the income from the article. Cross linking from other web 2.0 sites works very good for this.
Well, there you go. Another reason to increase your writing skill by writing articles daily. These web 2.0 sites give you a good practice ground to improve your skill so you can write better articles for your own sites while also giving your site relevant links and even sending a little cash your way.
