3dReadyTV.co.uk page layout uploaded
A QUICK UPDATE: I have just spent the last couple of hours preparing the basics of the page layout for 3dReadyTV.co.uk. I have come to the conclusion that I need to have a handful of “featured TVs” and the use the rest of the site to bulk up the content.

Once I have the affiliate links sorted out I can then finish loading the rest of the graphics and content before starting a link building campaign, which will include some directory submissions, articles and blog posts. › Continue reading
3D Ready TV Domain Test
True Story: In December of 2008 I was lying in a hospital bed at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham.

Keyword domains are the back bone of many an online marketing strategy. Some will argue that building a brand is bigger than owning a keyword domain, but with massive UK companies like B&Q (DIY.com), First Choice (holidays.co.uk) and the Times Online (news.co.uk) to name a tiny few, having invested in keyword domains to boost their brand and considering “more than one in six searches are performed by internet users directly typing a domain into their browser, something which accounts for more than 10% of Google’s search revenues.” SOURCE: Marketing Week … it is hard to believe that keyword domains will be affected. › Continue reading
Exact searches, not an exact science
I received an email on my way home in response to my talk about Keyword Domains and Mini-sites in particular using the Google Keyword Tool to accurately “guestimate” how many searches a 1st page ranking minisite would receive so you can work out a rough revenue projection. The email reads as follows: › Continue reading
