Good extension – If a person is surfing around looking for a site, and they know its name, most people will try .com. So, for the web site owner who wants their site to be found, the rule is: if at all possible, get a .com name.
Short – Less than 7 characters, ideally. A simple name will roll off the tongue more easily in conversation, look more professional, and have less chance of being mis-typed.
Easy to spell – Make sure it passes the phone test: if you were to say the domain name of your website to a friend over the phone, would your friend be able to spell it correctly the first time without your having to spell it for them? If not, you’ve failed the phone test and should likely try a different domain name. Also, be careful about double letters. Take CyberRadio, for example. Their domain uses a double R, as you might expect, but there is an uncertainty there. The two R’s together look a bit strange if written without capitalization, and a good name will not force the user to assume anything about the name. If you must have a double letter, the best solution is to buy both versions of the domain. Avoid using dashes in your domain name.
Descriptive – A good site or business name will describe exactly what the site is about. In most cases it’s important for a person to be able to get some sort of sense what the website is about just by reading the domain name. Of course that logic doesn’t work for sites like ebay, amazon, ivillage, etc, but then again you likely don’t have a multi-million dollar budget to help you brand your name and teach people what it means.
Keywords– Include descriptive keywords that describe your business, product or mission in your domain name. This will play a very small part, in some cases, in increasing your search engine ranking for search phrases that include the keywords used in your domain name.

This is the theory of LINK EXCHANGE, it may be BORING TO READ, but it’s GOOD TO UNDERSTAND! and sorry, in order to make you have a clear picture of link exchange, this post has to be a bit long!
Let’s start here…
You may think you know what a link exchange is, but I’m here to tell you, there is quite a difference in the type I’m talking about here.
A “normal” link exchange is one where you place a bunch of cruddy banners or extra coding on your site. This will detract from the professionalism you’re striving to preserve. There’s nothing worse than having a big old ugly banner plastered across your web site. And if you have several, well, that just makes it that much more unprofessional looking.
A “real” traffic-pulling link exchange is one in which you solicit linking partners on an individual and personal basis to place their link on your web site if they will do the same for you on their own site. Or, simply asking webmasters to post a link to your site on theirs as both sites content will compliment each other.
The wonderful, crazy place we call “The Internet” really was built on the power of the link.
Hello, howdy. I had no update on this blog recently and was struggle with the direction of this blog.
I received feedbacks from my friends saying that this blog is too “informative” (means too long to read) and they don’t like it. What they want is something simple & easy to understand information & tips on Internet Marketing. This feedback keeps running in my mind and I was thinking …… “why should I spend my time to write a long content where it doesn’t need the objective?”
After gathering feedbacks & suggestions from some friends and IM expert, I decided to focus the direction of this blog in the area of “simple & easy internet marketing tips” and I named it as “Internet Marketing Dummies”.
Welcome again to www.AllyChan.com – The Blog for “Internet Marketing Dummies”

Before you really step into the world of Affiliate Marketing, understand the language use in Affiliate Marketing the first step in your affiliate business learning curve.
Here we go……
AFFILIATE : Someone who earns a commission for sending clicks, leads, or sales to a merchant.
AFFILIATE AGREEMENT : A contractual document, usually executed electronically, between an affiliate and a merchant. Includes terms and conditions of the relationship. Legally binding.
AFFILIATE LINK : Code that sends your customer to a merchant’s sales page. The code can either be an HTML link or be part of a graphic (such as a banner). The code identifies you as the affiliate who should be credited for the click or the sale.
AFFILIATE PROGRAM : A business model that pays a commission to someone who sends leads, clicks, or sales to a merchants via a link (text or graphic) on a web site.
One of the most effective ways to generate ‘free’ web site traffic is through participating in what is known as a joint venture (JV).
A joint venture is simply a partnership between two or more people, web sites, or companies that are working towards a common goal. And your main goal is to get some targeted traffic.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
Joint ventures are agreements. The term sounds fancy, but that’s really all it’s about. When two or more businesses form a partnership, and agree to work together for a certain period of time on a project, that’s a joint venture.
The benefits of joint venture marketing are almost too numerous to list. The relationships you build and the resources you gain access to can skyrocket your business from ground zero to wildly profitable in record time.
JVs typically don’t require a lot of up front investment of hard cash. That’s the beauty of the method. If you’re stuck in your business due to lack of capital, a JV can give you the leverage you need to move ahead.
This is because JVs hold shared, future profit as their focus. It is to the benefit of both parties to contribute the resources they have available.
Let’s say you have a great product, but no list and no experience generating traffic. You can find a JV partner who has a list and plenty of traffic-pulling know how that would love to endorse and promote your product for a share of the sales.
Both parties win in that scenario. The list owner generates extra profits for himself without the hassle of creating a product, and you generate profit without paying for traffic or spending month’s building a list.
The scenario I just described to you is one of the most common types of joint ventures among information product marketers. You aren’t limited to endorsement based JV’s, though. Anything of value can be exchanged in a joint venture. WAIT! There is more to read… read on »
Online classified may be used to build one-way link popularity. In some cases, they may net you actual traffic.
You need to be really choosy with classifieds, though. Many of the free sites are junk, and your ad won’t be read.
Instead, I’d recommend placing classifieds in online versions of newsletters/ezines any targeted, content heavy sites that are set up to resemble a magazine. Double check, though, that their classifieds section (if any) appears well-organized and up-to-date.
It’s also better if they charge a fee for placement, as this limits the freebie advertisers from cluttering up the listings.
Remember: any classified you place should a be a “teaser” – in other words, when you write your ad copy, think of it as an extended version of, say, the type of ad you might write for Google Adwords.
You’re not making the pitch here, just compelling people to click on your link.
