Google Isn’t the Only Option for Your Online Success
Summary:
Relying solely on Google for your online sales and advertising can be risky. I've experienced the highs of great Google rankings followed by dramatic drops. Diversifying your traffic sources is essential for consistent success.---
If you're depending solely on Google traffic, AdSense, or AdWords for your sales, you might be setting yourself up for a big disappointment. Constant changes in search engine rankings can significantly impact your business. I've experienced those highs, only to see them drop suddenly, like a stone in the Atlantic.
Diversify Your Traffic Sources
Relying on just one platform is poor marketing strategy. Instead, explore different avenues for driving traffic to your site. Options like Yahoo, Yahoo's YPN, and other search engines, along with pay-per-click programs, can increase your traffic and potentially boost sales.
My Experience with Yahoo's YPN vs. Google AdSense
I currently use both Google AdSense and Yahoo’s YPN on my site. Interestingly, Yahoo's YPN is earning me three times what AdSense does, despite both targeting the same keywords. I’ve split pages equally between the two, and Yahoo seems to be the stronger performer.
A Proverb to Remember
“Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.” Spread your advertising efforts across different platforms. Test various approaches and optimize your pages for quality content and keyword density. Remember, don’t optimize solely for Google. Today’s top ranking could plummet to the bottom with the next algorithm change. Google’s constant adjustments feel impersonal, but they affect your revenue nonetheless.
Broadening Your Search Engine Horizons
Recently, while searching for business loans, I noticed UK listings taking up the first few pages on the main search engine, even though I was looking for US options. This highlights the need to look beyond a single platform for accurate results.
Alternative Pay-Per-Click Sites
Here are some additional pay-per-click options to consider:
1. Yahoo! Search Marketing: Offers an organized system for your ads.
2. Miva: Distributes keyword text ads across its partner network.
3. GoClick: Has no monthly or startup fees, with a low 1 cent CPC.
4. 7Search: Results are visible in over 35% of top search engines.
5. Kanoodle: Partners with major sites like CNET and DogPile.
6. Search123: Provides tools to help manage your pay-per-click budget.
Conclusion
There are numerous search engines and advertising opportunities waiting for you. Take the time to explore them. You’ll quickly realize that Google isn’t the only major player in town, even if it sometimes feels like it!
By diversifying your strategy, you can build a more resilient and successful online presence.
