			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><meta />&#8216;META DESCRIPTION&#8217; tag lost its shine after the emergence of off-page factors (like link popularity) for rankings in SERPS. In fact it lost its purpose to a great extent when Google started using contextual content from within the page as the description of the URL in its SERPS.</p>
<p>However in an interesting turn of events, &#8216;META DESCRIPTION&#8217; is back in business!</p>
<p>Most search engines, including Google are now using the &#8216;META DESCRIPTION&#8217; content as the description of the URL in their SERPS. The page &#8217;TITLE&#8217; is now being shown as the listing title with &#8216;META DESCRIPTION&#8217; as the description of the URL. If you compare it with Google AdWords, you can consider the &#8216;TITLE&#8217; as the <em>Headline</em> and &#8216;META DESCRIPTION&#8217; as the <em>Description</em>. Therefore, you must use it to outline your strength, your unique selling proposition and if possible your offer.</p>
<p>Loren Baker of Search Engine Journal mentioned cited this interesting Meta Description used by NextStudent.com in his <a href="http://www.searchenginejournal.com/skype-importance-of-phone-numbers-in-a-meta-description/6572/">article</a>,</p>
<blockquote dir="ltr" style="margin-right: 0px"><p><em>Looking for federal or private student loans for School? Get up to 40k Fast: Call 877-680-9879. Student loan consolidation? Call 800-299-4639. NextStudent- College Funding Made Simple.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>You can also include your phone number (as cited in the above advertisement - description) for the prospect who is in a hurry! May be you will end up prospecting without having the visitor hit your website! In fact, with the latest version of IE and the FireFox plugins, the phone numbers listed in this description become hot-links, which a visitor can simply click and get connected on a voice call through Skype. And you can close a sale! <img src='http://www.talash.net/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>And yes, many SEO specialists believe that higher CTR on your SERPS listing (due to improved &#8216;TITLE&#8217; and &#8216;META DESCRIPTION&#8217;) can help you further improve your rankings.</p>
<p>BTW, I forgot to mention that some expert copywriters may like to even put in their headlines and teasers to pre-sell the product / services!</p>
<p><a href="http://seobloguk.blogspot.com/2006/11/importance-of-meta-description-tag.html">Lisa Ditlefsen</a> says:</p>
<blockquote dir="ltr" style="margin-right: 0px"><p>Basically if you think about it the <strong>meta description tag is your FREE ad!</strong> If you have experience in running a pay per click campaign I’m sure you have put a lot of thought into what the PPC ad says. The ad is what distinguish you from all the other PPC ads right? So why should it be any different in the organic SERPs? The title tag is your free headline and the meta description tag is your FREE ad, this is where you have a chance to ad hook someone in. How many times have you searched for something, got to the results and been put off by the description, it can’t possibly be what you were looking for!!?</p></blockquote>
<p dir="ltr">May be people do not give so much importance to this FREE ad, because it is FREE! It is never late. Give proper attention to your website &#8216;META DESCRIPTION&#8217; tags and turn your organic traffic to a highly targeted FREE traffic.</p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The bids on AdWords are soaring to new heights everyday. Some advertisers are even shelling out up to $10 per click. So, naturally the question arises - Is this complete madness or is there any logic behind such aggressive advertising?</p>
<p>To me, it does make some sense to bid aggressively if you have the right strategy in place. And if you are bidding for the right keyword. It does not make sense to bid for &#8220;web design&#8221; if you offer web design service in Texas! In that case your keyword should be &#8220;web design texas&#8221;.</p>
<p>Considering, you have done enough research, let us consider two scenarios:</p>
<p>1) Every client you acquire, on an average spends $15000 with you in a year. In this case, you do not mind spending 10% of the revenue as customer acquisition cost. Therefore you can comfortably bid $10 per click (provided you have a site which can convert 1 out of 150 visitors). Thus, looking at a lifetime value of a customer makes it a good investment.</p>
<p>2) If you have mastered the art of persuasion (or have hired a master of persuasion), and have come up with a website with converts well (visitor > customer conversion), every visitor you are driving to your website is equivalent to revenue <img src='http://www.talash.net/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> . So go ahead, rock the boat and bid out all your competitors. You will get more customers and will also have lower customer acquisition cost. What more do you want?</p>
<p>So, expensive keywords bidding do work, if they are backed with high lifetime customer value and/or higher conversion on the website. And yes, those Internet marketing experts are not insane! In fact most of them are very smart.</p>
<p>So bid smartly!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Attractive designs do get attention. It can also get good visitor-customer conversion if some best-practices are followed. But the question is - how can attractive designs get traffic to your website?</p>
<p>They can! or,<br />
They can at least help your site in getting good traffic.</p>
<p>Here is a simple technique posted by Daniel on his <a href="http://www.dailyblogtips.com/website-traffic-series-part-1-web-design-and-css-galleries/" target="_blank">blog</a>.</p>
<ul>
<li>Design an attractive web site. Or get it designed through one of the many <a href="http://www.design2please.com/" target="_blank">web design agencies</a> around. Make sure that the site is coded in XHMTL/CSS2.</li>
<li>Now, submit these websites to several CSS galleries which has sprung all over the Internet. If your design is decent enough, you will surely get accepted. However, if your design is outstanding, you may get featured sending in hundreds of visitors!</li>
<li>Now, design enthusiasts may not be your target audience (BTW, if they are, then you have struck a goldmine). Still, you get multiple listings and they link to your website, which ultimately helps you in getting better link-popularity and therefore higher rankings in search engines. In my opinion, you should not miss any opportunity to improve your link-popularity.</li>
<li>Here are some links to the &#8220;List of CSS galleries&#8221;</li>
</ul>
