I have setup a schedule for what I do on each day for each of my sites.  Most of the weekdays I create content for my blogs and other sites I am working on.  I decided early on that I was going to take the weekends off from writing and focus on promoting my sites.

This weekend I started off my day reading some marketing articles - not only do they give me inspiration, but they also keep me informed of new marketing avenues.  After my daily read, I continued to submit my sites to web directories.

To speed up the submission of my sites to a web directory, I have been using some form filling software.  This speeds up the process immensely as I don’t have to re-type everything each time.

Well, I should get back to it.  I have quite a few websites to promote and I try to submit each one to about 20 directories - I have a long day ahead of me.

Have you ever purchased text link ads for your website?  If you have, you must realize that it takes a large amount of time to get these types of relationships setup.  Not only do you have to make initial contact, but you have to spend a lot of time finding sites that would be interested in having your ad on their page.  What if I told you there is an easier way to do it.  Would you be interested?

Well if you made it here, I bet you are.  Let me share a little program that just started recently with you called TNX.net.  What they offer is a text link marketplace where you can buy links to promote your site.

How much does it cost?

Not a whole lot.  For as little as $20.00 you can buy links on over 15,000 pages.  So do you think it is reasonable?  You bet.

Speaking about a cash investment you don’t really need one.  If you want to try out the program without spending any money, they have a special offer to try out their text link program.  Click the link in the previous sentence to try it out.

If you want to promote your site for free, you can join their affiliate program and get paid when your affiliates either buy or sell advertising.  This can be a great way to fund your advertising program or even to put some extra money in your pocket.  Try them out, it’s free, and I am sure you won’t be disappointed.

I came across a free webdirectory today that is new. I mean, really new. In fact, the site was just launched yesterday.

They have a dedicated editor, and my site listing was approved in just one day. I would suggest checking the site out:

A Free Directory

My goal for all of my websites is simple: make some money. In order to make money with a website, your site needs some quality, targeted traffic. A search engine is a good provider of the money-making traffic ? but there are many other webmasters out there with the same goal as me ? ranking well in the search results on the search engines.

What sets one webmaster apart from another in terms of search engine ranking is their skills at SEO optimization.

Search engine optimization (SEO) is the art of tweaking your webpages so that your site will be ranked higher in the search results on the search engines. Notice that I called it an art ? there are skills and techniques that you combine together (think of combining paint on a canvas ? you have painting) in order to get your website ranked well in those search results.

In an effort to improve my SEO skills, I came across a great SEO tutorials resource that improved my skillset in terms of search engine optimization. The blog where I found it, DNSeo, teaches you those important skills in getting your site noticed. The tutorials cover a broad range of topics and skill levels, and are written in plain English.

Poking around the site, I was surprised to find Free WordPress themes. What do these have to do with the site? Well, most of the themes were designed with the expectation of showing Adsense ads on the site ? if someone clicks on the ad, you make money. They look very professional done and reduce the time it takes you to lauch a new blog - which gives you time to make even more sites (and more money).

A big thank you to the webmaster of DNSeo.net ? most people are not willing to share their secrets or the tools that they use to succeed online ? but they did.

If you are like many webmasters, you are always actively promoting your websites. You may submit your sites to search engines, post on forums, write a few articles and list your website on free web directories. In my searches today, I found two worth mentioning.

4169.info is a free seo friendly link directory. Established earlier this year, it has been a big success. If you would like some extra exposure, you can also pay for a featured listing for a reasonable price.

Tower Promote Free Link Directory is another free link directory came across. It is a good example of what you can do with an older website by changing the type of site it is. Listings on this site are free as well, with featured listings being very reasonable.

If I find anymore good sites where you can promote your websites, I will be sure to mention it here.
