Link Building & Website Promotion with Qassia

Qassia is a credit-driven intelligence engine coupled to a cascading
tag-based web directory. What exactly does this mean? It means that
Qassia will change your life.

Good stuff your websites will like...
At Qassia, you can add your websites for free, and without having to
add reciprocal backlinks. You'll get unlimited quality backlinks (as
opposed to "no-follow" backlinks). You can also add intel. Short for
"intelligence", intel is a tidbit of information. Qassia rewards
users
who add intel in three ways.
Backlinks You get one backlink for every piece of intel you add.
Every
intel will carry a direct backlink to one of your sites. So the more
intel you add, the more backlinks you get.

Credit When you add intel, you also get credit, in the form of Qassia
dollars. Your net worth in Qassia dollars determines how well your
websites rank in our directory.

Revenue When your intel is displayed, you get 100% of the advertising
revenue generated by that page. That is not a typo, by the way: we
give you ALL of the gross ad revenue.
This means that website owners have triple incentive to contribute
intel. The contributed intel will allow Qassia to become a vast
repository of intelligence, with unrivaled original content. And a
vast amount of original content draws traffic like honey draws ants.
Inside Intel, rather than Intel Inside
Qassia is sometimes confused with sites like Wikipedia, Squidoo, most
recently, Google knol. Qassia is fundamentally different from these
sites, because Qassia is not about asking people to upload
authoritative articles. You don't need to be an egghead at Qassia.
You
could upload a lengthy academic treatise if you want, by all means,
but you can also get away with contributing a hastily scribbled
tidbit
of information about a person, a company, a place, an event, a thing,
or anything you know about.
What we value is intelligence about the people, companies, and places
around you. The people and places do not have to be famous, and the
intelligence does not have to be earth-shattering.

Qassia isn't a wiki. Your intel will not get edited (it will get
rated, but not edited). You can write your intel in any tone or style
you like. You can write in the first person, and you can write your
entire intel without using the shift key.

By asking for less, we receive more
Not only is Qassia 100 percent free - Qassia do not even ask for
reciprocal links - but, in addition to promoting your websites &
discovering stuff, you can also earn real money - very easily and
without any hassle. Qassia have the best, most generous, and most
reliable ad revenue sharing program on the web. So if you're thusly
inclined - and who wouldn't be? - you'll actually get paid for the
effort you put in promoting your websites. No hitch, no catch. Now,
if
that ain't a sweet deal, we don't know what is.
We believe that, only by completely pampering our users and giving
more than any other website, and in fact giving more than the users
themselves expect, can we attain our goal of becoming the most
incredible website the world has ever seen.

Qassia is a new era
Think of the bits and pieces of intel as the gravel which will fill
the potholes on the information superhighway. While the Wikipedia and
other knowledge repositories are huge, boasting tens of thousands of
articles, less than 1 percent of human knowledge has been uploaded to
the Internet. At Qassia, we are giving users the incentive and the
freedom to add the remaining 99.9 percent.

The vast web of intel created at Qassia will produce more than a
useful intelligence engine. The advent of Qassia is a cataclysmic
event in the history of the Internet. Qassia are redefining the web
experience. Come be part of history and create your free Qassia
account now.

Currently Qassia is in closed Beta stages, Qassia is only accessible
by an invite of a beta member, as it happens i managed to grab my
self
with an account so know im able to invite any one who wishes to try
out this system, which sounds excellent if it works as well as it
says.

How to Promote your website on Qassia

So you've heard the hype and you've signed up at Qassia. Now what?
Promoting your website on Qassia is easy but a little more
complicated
than most new users expect. You can add your site, but that's usually
not enough.

So after adding your site, what do you do?

You add intel. Intel is intelligence, i.e. a snippet of information,
sort of like an article or a blog post. The more intel you add, the
better. Adding intel is what Qassia is all about. The more intel you
add, the more credit you will get, in the form of Qassia dollars.
This
will make your sites rank better in our directory. And for every
intel
you add, you get a backlink - this will be picked up by search
engines
and seen by people who read your intel. Lastly, if your intel gets a
lot of pageviews, it may generate advertising revenue, all of which
goes to you.

So we're agreed that adding lots of intel is good. But what kind of
intel should you add? There are almost no restrictions on the kind of
intel you may add, but if you want to promote your site effectively,
here are some do's and don't's you might want to heed.

What You Should NOT Do:

Do not add intel about your website or product.
New users will typically start off by adding intel about their own
website, in the following vein: This amazing website/product offers
blablabla and has lots of cool stuff and info and blablabla. It was
launched on whenever and gets lots of visitors, and there is some
stuff you will find useful. Check it out! This is basically an
advertisement. An advertisement is a form of information, and
therefore allowed, but it won't help you much.

Do not add poetry, short stories, jokes, or other creative writing.
We allow poetry and short stories and other creative writing because,
technically, it is information. And we do not want to ban poetry
because there is a thin dividing line between opinion, essay, lyrical
writing, and poetry. However, passing your poetry off as intel is not
a good idea if you want to promote your websites effectively, because
most users do not appreciate poetry, and neither do the search
engines.

What You SHOULD Do:
Do add information about things you know about.
Add intel about things you know more about than most other people.
For
example, if you are a black belt in karate, then you probably know
more about karate than most people. Consequently, your intel about
karate is likely to be good and interesting. Or if you are an
ornithologist, then adding intel about birds is a good way to get
going. And so on.

Do add original and previously unpublished material.
You are allowed to add any material, including recycled material, as
long as you are legally allowed to do so. But if you add material
never before published and first published on Qassia, you get more
credit and far more exposure.

Do write quickly.
To be efficient, it is best not to spend a lot of time on each intel.
That means, write about stuff for which the information is already in
your head. You won't need to spend ages looking things up. Typically,
what's in your head is (a) your past experiences, and (b) the
information about the people, places, and companies around you. The
stores in your neighborhood. The people you know. The companies
you've
worked for. That sort of thing. If you have a hard time putting it in
writing, just pretend that Qassia is your best friend and you're
sitting down at the kitchen table over a cup of coffee, spilling the
beans.

Do add mundane information.
Do add factual or even boring information that won't necessarily make
an exciting read, but which might eventually prove useful just the
same: sooner or later, someone will search for the information and
land on your intel page. Don't worry if your intel will not get a
good
grade. Only very well written, professional-grade articles get A's
and
B's. You can and should aim for those, but the bulk of your intel
will
be comprised of mundane and humdrum info. Ignore the grade and keep
adding information. Remember, each intel is a backlink.

Limited Offer - Directory Submitter Resale-Master Rights package?

Dear Fellow Internet Marketer / Website Owner,

Do you really know what it takes to quickly generate high-quality traffic to your Web Site?

Listen up… I must let you in on a few insider *secrets*: 

We all know that generating traffic to a new website can be frustrating.

I remember the days of checking my user status, only to find 10 or 15 hits per day.  It seemed like such a slow, tedious process that I, frankly, did not have the patience for.

Getting a new website on the map isn't easy!  In order to be successful, you have to understand web development, search engine operations, linking campaigns, and of course, you need a marketing strategy.

My name is Tom Dahne, and I have spent the last 5 years researching web traffic generation.  I've spent thousands of hours experimenting with new software and ideas.  When I first began, the process seemed archaic- I was individually emailing webmasters for links, and eventually, submitting to directory after directory, one at a time…

The manual link directory submission process seemed so wearisome, but I knew it didn't have to be…

I'll be perfectly honest.  I created this website because I have teamed up with Master Programmer Paul Martin to create a revolutionary new piece of software that makes the monotonous first stages of traffic generation a breeze.  It is a piece of software that will drive specific, targeted customers to your site in hoards…

I can predict with strong conviction that with our software, your user status will triple or even quadruple in 60 days or less.  But here is the best part… we can offer you the complete software package for less than the cost of a reasonable website advertisement.

But I am getting way ahead of myself...

Because of my background, I understand how much time, energy, and patience it requires to become a truly successful web developer.  I have spent years studying every nuance of web traffic development technique that has come out and I still don't know everything there is to learn.

But one thing I do know is that by submitting your website to high quality Link Directories your sites Link Popularity, Google PR and Search Engine Ranking will increase, thus will the number of visitors coming to your website and over all your online sales.

By using directory submission as a big part of our online marketing efforts we have managed to get our 3 main websites ranked in the top 10 positions on the 3 major search engines, Google , Yahoo and Msn for our sites main keyword.

Take a Look At Our Sites SE Ranking Below!

Now I come to the other reason I created this website: to share the knowledge I have gained over the years.  Starting your own website shows ingenuity, intelligence, and a sense of entrepreneurship.  I'm happy to lend a hand to such a strong web-based community.

I won't try to fool you.  It wasn't easy, and I spent many frustrated nights trying to figure out what I was doing wrong.  But once I learned the key ingredients to promoting a website, all of that hard work paid off.

In a few moments, I'm going to tell you about the best way to generate targeted, consistent traffic every day. 

But before we get to that, it's important to understand the key concepts of search engine operations.  If you know very little about link pop, Google PR, and reciprocal linking strategies, don't stress.

I designed this website just for you.  I've spent a lot of time (probably too much) learning the ins and outs of web traffic development.  Here you will find several articles that will explain, in the simplest terms, what you need to know before beginning your web traffic campaign.  Basically I've done the dirty work so you don't have to…

Below you will find the key information EVERY web developer should know before beginning a strategic link marketing campaign:

* Reciprocal and Non-Reciprocal Links… What's the Difference?

* The Advantages of Using Directories to Build "Link Pop"

* How "Link Pop" Affects Your Website's Page Rank

* Why Link Farm and FFA Submissions Are a Bad Idea

* Seven Things to Avoid When Looking For Link Partners

* Top 10 Ways to Improve Your Site's "Link Pop"

* Everything You Need to Know About Reciprocal Link Exchange

* How to Choose a Domain Name That Attracts the Right Visitors

* How to Check Your Website's "Link Pop" and "Google PR"

Now that you've caught up on the basics, I'd like to tell you how our software can substantially increase your sales and web traffic in a matter of weeks. 

We created Link Directory Submitter because we knew that the directory submission process could be made easier and more efficient. we also knew that by increasing the rate of directory submissions at such a phenomenal rate, our customers would have user numbers blowing through the roof!

In essence, my partner and I took a process that is usually accomplished in MONTHS and whittled it down to something that can be done in a few HOURS. 

Instead of waiting months to generate sales on your site, you can start gaining the hits you want right now. 

So how does this new software work?

Link Directory Submitter is the perfect solution for sending your sites to a multitude of pre-configured online directories. Link Directory Submitter comes with 2700+ link directories to submit to, more than half ranging from PR4 to PR7. 

Our directory submitter does not contain FFA pages or Link farms. Instead you will find specific, highly targeted directory sites just like DMOZ and many many more.

There are only 3 easy steps required:

· Create a profile (That is, the common data you usually have to repeatedly type by hand: your site address, link title, description, keywords, etc). This is a one-time process.

· Select up to 10 directories at a time that you want to submit to from the list of over 2700+ directories along with a category/subcategory for your site. Link Directory Submitter will fill in all the other details.

NEW FEATURE: Link Directory Submitter will now auto select the catagory for your website you are trying to submit if you have included them in your website profile.

· Now Press Submit.

· You're all done. 

And even more power has now been put into your hands with the release of v3.0 of Directory Submitter.

With Link Directory Submitter v3.0 you can now create your own Custom Directory Database by simply adding your own directories into the submitter that you find online, No more waiting for us to update the online database of directories into the submitter... You can now add your own directories...

By now I guess you are wondering: "Is this software really going to work?"  Well we would like to offer you the chance to try it out, risk-free for 30 days.

We could easily sell the software for $197, and it would be worth every penny at that price.  And we may even raise it to that price in the near future.

However we understand that not every webmaster has a huge budget to spend on software to help promote their websites. 

So for now, we have priced The Directory Submitter at a one-time price of only $97 so order now before we change our minds and increase the price to $197

SEO Tutorial 4: Promoting your site

Promoting your site has a lot to do with off page search engine optimization strategies. These strategies will develop backlinks to your website as well as increase traffic and your authority in your topic area.

1. Submit your website to the three major search engines

Submitting your site to a search engine does not mean you will be automatically included in the search engine's index. By doing this you alert the search engine to your website's presence and are added to a list of sites to be crawled.

Here are links to submit your site to Google, Yahoo and MSN:

•Submit your site to Google
•Submit your site to Yahoo
•Submit your site to MSN
 

2. Verify your site with Google Webmaster Tools and submit a sitemap

We have an excellent tutorial that will step you through this process. Please see Google Webmaster Tutorial for instructions on verifying your site and submitting a sitemap.

3. Submit your site to Google Local Business Center

If you have a business you can submit your site to Google's Local Business Center Submitting your site to Google's Local Business Center is FREE! When potential customers search Maps for local information, they'll find your business. Here is a link to learn more about Google Local Business Center.

4. Do link exchanges

Link building is an extremely important part of SEO.
