The Mysterious Site Map Project Uncovered

I must appologize to my loyal fans for the long time between my blogs - actually I just found out recently that I do have fans ;) Dane Carlson of business-opportunities.biz sent me an e-mail recently and reminded me that I do have loyal readers - I guess you can thank him that I didn't delay this any further...

A while ago I started noticing something strange and interesting. I don't remember exactly what I was doing but I found out that Stone Evans and his Plug-In Profit Site had over 6,000 pages registered in Google which is VERY good for search engine ranking, PageRank, keywords, etc...

When I researched this a little bit more I found out that the majority of his pages registered in Google came from this some sort of "Site Map Index" - but this was no normal site map. The pages this Site Map Index linked to were all keyword rich and optimized for top search engine rankings - and it looks like it worked.

Being curious how Stone had done this I sent him an e-mail but he only referred me to FreeFind.com. The site map I got at FreeFind was nothing like the one Stone had :( Well, he wouldn't tell me anything more so I kind of forgot about it for a while. But then I started noticing this on other high-traffic websites - similar "Site Maps" with keyword rich pages. I contacted the webmasters but they wouldn't tell me anything either, just said it was some kind of a marketing test or something...

I was not satisfied and decided to research this further and using Google I found a lot more websites using this same technique. I sent an e-mail to all the webmasters and fortunately some of them replied with a decent answer.

It turns out that the secret to this search engine popularity the pro's are using is this amazing tool. OK, I know it's not cheap, but it's definitely worth it. So, if you are struggling with website traffic and want Top 10 Google results for any keyword you should definitely get your hands on this product!

I know I could use a little more targeted traffic so I bought it and from what I've seen I really like it. It's pretty easy to use:

• I just upload a couple of files to my website


• Load it up in my web browser and use the built-in keyword-finding tool to find 10,000+ targeted keywords


• I then modify the template I want to use and let the tool build the webpages
  
• Then I just put a link to my "Site Map Index" on my main site and wait for the search engines to spider me


• ...just sit back and watch the extra targeted traffic bring more sales and referrals :)

They've just recently published a new version of the tool, version 3 - the price is still the same, even though now you'll also get physical marketing CD's to help you + you'll get unlimited lifetime upgrades for free! I'm not sure how long this offer is going to last though...

A really cool new feature that comes with version 3 is the possibility to add RSS blog feeds to your pages - which makes your pages even fresher and you know search engines just love fresh content ;) If you need RSS feeds here is one to get you started: The Home Biz Blog RSS feed

I've been testing this and built a few "site maps" on my websites (you can use it on as many websites as you want), this was my first test: WorkAtHomeMadeEasy.net Resource Collection - maybe I created a bit too many keywords. Here are more samples:
website traffic resource collection
advertising
link popularity
search engine ranking

So far only the first few pages have been indexed by the search engines. I'll report back when more pages have been indexed and let you know how much traffic I'm getting from the search engines.
