SEO Elite Reviews – Demo Videos Of SEO Elite Features

Written by caymanhost on February 22, 2010 – 1:10 pm

SEO Elite – Review & videos

SEO Elite reviews can be found all over the web nowadays and this alone means that you may have considered using it yourself at some point. SEO Elite from Brad Callen has been around for several years now and in its latest incarnation, SEO Elite 4, is still performing well for many webmasters, even though it has had and continues to have its critics. All webmasters know that search engine optimization and keyword research are vitally important aspects of running a website or blog; at least if you want traffic to your sites.

Never an exact science, SEO has spawned a huge industry and not a little controversy over the years. The only thing that most people agree on is that the whole business is an ever changing sea of methodology and that what is a great SEO technique today, may be next to useless tomorrow. With search engines forever tweaking their algorithms and ranking factors, it is almost impossible for anyone other than those working on those factors, to know what exactly needs to be done to get a decent position in the search engine results pages and keep it.

Naturally, developers have come up with numerous software tools and packages to try and crack the business of achieving a top ranking, with varying degrees of success.

SEO Elite has been around for several years and has somehow continued to prove its effectiveness and worth, despite all the changes that are seemingly constantly being brought to the attention of webmasters. Whilst it is not cheap, if you have the budget and want to improve your results in the organic search listings of the major search engines, SEO Elite is one tool you should definitely consider.

Even though there are many alternatives out there, a great deal of them are not worth the purchase price and some are, sad to say, a complete waste of time and money. With SEO Elite you know that you are getting a regularly updated and powerful SEO optimization tool with reliable help and support. The features are comprehensive and we have posted three videos below so that you can see the sort of thing SEO Elite can help you with.

This only really scratches the surface but gives you a good idea of the interface and how quickly the software can help you with the detailed tasks involved in optimizing your website. To achieve manually what SEO Elite can provide in terms of research and suggested improvements would patently take a totally unrealistic amount of time.

You can find out more about SEO Elite or buy the software at the company’s website www.seoelite.com

If you are seriously considering working on your own on site optimization a tool like SEO Elite will do most of the heavy lifting for you and when used correctly will certainly see your sites improve in the SERPS.

The company also produces the excellent Keyword Elite and Affiliate Elite products and have established themselves as a trusted source of reliable and effective tools for webmasters, marketers and affiliates alike.

We hope you found the videos a useful insight into at least some of the the workings of SEO Elite.

Hosting Companies and Spam

Written by caymanhost on January 27, 2010 – 11:52 pm

I normally write about comment spam over on my marketing blog but in recent times I seem to be getting more and more that emanates from web hosting companies on this site so I thought I would make a quick educational post for these SEO lost causes and free ad seekers.

1) This site may well still be listed as a “dofollow” blog, but, alas, the spammers caused that to change some months ago now and our decision was posted here at Goodbye To DoFollow

Now, my reason for restating this is that it is blatantly obvious that some of the comments are being posted by services who advertise their comment spam as SEO  and link building services on the sites they link back to. These are smart people without a doubt.

Most of these comments are flagged by Akismet as spam already, so, they are charging people for something they cannot hope to deliver, having secured themselves a warm seat in the spammer hall of  shame. The point is, if you see someone advertising a service to post links for you, for a fee, on dofollow blogs, don’t be a sucker. You are wasting your money. This is not SEO or legitimate link building and in my experience, the comments are usually so poorly written &/or completely generic or irrelevant that even if the perpetrators haven’t yet been flagged it sure won’t be long until they are.

2) Hosting providers – I think it is fairly obvious what kind of website this is. It is also fairly obvious that an area entitled “Customer Reviews” exists for customers to post their feedback. Somehow, more and more hosting sites seem to interpret this forum as “place your free ads here” or similar.

I’m not going to name any names, but invariably these companies are operating out of the Indian sub-continent or the far east. So, let’s help clear things up for you – the area of the site you are looking for is titled “Advertisers” and can be found easily in the top menu bar of every page. Yes, this site owner has bills to pay too and the rates are extremely fair as some of my existing customers will tell you.

Again, a great deal of these kinds of free ad seeking comments are finding their way into Akismet’s sin bin too and if they haven’t, you can be sure I’ll be one more webmaster/blogger doing my bit to help Akismet’s filters for the future.

To make things even easier and more convenient, if all you really want is a link, once again, it’s right there at the top of the page. I realize that reciprocal linking has lost a lot of juice in recent times but if you have a related site, I have made exchanging links as painless as possible.

3) On the subject of advertising and spam – unsolicited emails are not the way to do business online, however, I recognize that sometimes, an email to a webmaster with some kind of proposal is not always a bad thing.

Having said that, I would like to make it very clear that you cannot buy a listing at this site, nor can you buy a favorable review or similar shenanigans. I am well aware that this is common practice in the industry and is also why hosting review sites often have little credibility – see the article and video on Honest Hosting Reviews for more.

Again, I am not going to name names, but there have been several occasions where an unsolicited mail has arrived, offering me what I consider pretty substantial consideration in return for a “top listing and review”. To my mind, if you have to buy good feedback for your service, whatever industry you are in, you have some serious problems, both business and ethical.

Whilst it hurts to turn down such offers (at least in the pocket) there is little hope for any kind of  impartial hosting information should every site owner be lured by the promise of easy (dirty) money.

If you want to pay for advertising on these pages there are convenient an easy channels for doing so, but bent reviews are not part of the service provided and, I’ll say it yet again,  there is no such thing as a “Top Ten” or “Top Twenty” list of hosting providers unless the criteria are very strictly defined, and, even then, it’s hardly objective.

4) Affiliate programs – the majority of web hosts here on TCH run affiliate programs (it’s all in the disclaimer) and therefore I am paid a commission should I send customers their way. I hope that if my visitors find the reviews and articles helpful, they consider this fair exchange for the site’s features and any assistance it provides for them.

Such affiliation does not guarantee either party any favors or special treatment. Well, aside from a couple of cases where affiliate status has been withdrawn because of a refusal to remove/edit negative but fair feedback. (yes, sadly it has happened). Reasonable criticism and complaint is part and parcel of a place on our real estate.

5) To those who would genuinely like to be featured on TCH, please feel free to use my contact form and submit your proposals or requests. Whilst I can’t and don’t guarantee anything, I will always consider them. Lack of an affiliate program does not exclude you either.  As I’ve always stated on these pages, I try to offer a site where visitors can give and get some honest information and also to feature hosts who have a proven track record for reliability and fair practices. That’s not to say I never get it wrong, but if  serious problems with a company are becoming the norm,  I try to keep people informed and do remove companies who perform really badly, regardless of my personal affiliate status.

I hope this clears things up for everyone. To those who have been guilty of comment spam I urge you to rethink your tactics because it really does you nothing but harm. To those who have ever considered paying for any kind of “blog commenting” service, please save your money and put it towards some legitimate marketing and advertising. Comments are about interaction and sharing, not a shortcut to high SERPS rankings.

Free Marketing Blog & Article Directory

Written by caymanhost on January 14, 2010 – 6:11 pm

We have just launched a free marketing blog here at the CaymanHost where members can post their best hosting, marketing, SEO, blogging and Wordpress related content.

Register For A Free Author Account Here

If you have a review or an article dealing with any aspect of web hosting or want to promote your websites to the world you can register for free and post away – there are only a couple of rules and provided they are followed this will be a great way for you to earn backlinks and syndicate your content to a wider audience.

As article directories go, there are none of the usual restrictions – you may include video in your posts as well as hyperlinks in the body of your articles as well as the resource box at the foot of your posts.

The site runs on Wordpress, and it has been set up to be search engine friendly using a range of plugins to ensure your content gets spidered and indexed quickly. If you already blog on Wordpress the members area will be very familiar to you.

As it is a brand new site, now is the time to register and start posting your content and links – we are accepting articles on all web hosting and domain name topics as well as internet marketing articles, SEO, Wordpress, general blogging and website design and promotion. If you write about any of these things you can sign up as an author and start spreading your message.

Free Blog - Web Hosting and Internet Marketing As an author you may post as often as you wish. All we ask is that you refrain from using affiliate links (including redirects) and stick to the topics allowed. This is not a general article directory but one aimed at those looking for information on specific subjects.

After registration make sure you fill in your profile details to gain as much advantage as possible as when people click on your profile they will see your website links etc.

When posting be sure to include your relevant targeted keywords and tag your posts so that they can be more easily found.

If you are a publisher looking for content you may use any of the articles in the database for your own sites provided that they remain unchanged in any way, including all live hyperlinks which must be left intact – the content is free so please respect the author’s and their right to exposure if you are using their work.

Other than that, all we ask is that you enjoy the new site and help us make it a success :-)

Free Advertising For Reviewers

Written by caymanhost on March 9, 2009 – 5:03 pm

For the month of March and maybe continuing into April, I am offering a free advertising spot to anyone who takes the time to post a review of their host in our hosting reviews category.

How is it going to work?

All you need to do is find your hosting company (use the search box if you need to) , fill out your ratings for each category by clicking on the stars and give us a reasonably well written review of your experiences, good or bad, but please refrain from bad language ;-) . By a review I mean more than a couple of lines :-)

Once you are done, use the contact form to confirm you have posted your review, tell me the URL of the site you wish to advertise and your ad copy (no more than 100 characters please) and  I will include your message at the very top of the site on our rotating banner for a full calendar month.  So you get some link love from your comment as well as a free ad spot right on the top of the site. Good deal?

There are only a couple of conditions:

1) No affiliate links please

2) No Adult Pharma or Gambling Ads

3) I reserve the right not to publish any ads I deem inappropriate and to end this offer at any time.

So, get posting about your hosting!

TCH

Free PDF Hosting Service

Written by caymanhost on March 7, 2009 – 6:02 pm

web hosting is pretty vital if you want to run an online business, but for some people, even the relatively lowly fees associated with budget shared hosting are not justifiable.

One example of this would be the person who doesn’t want a website, because they are content with a free third party service that fills most of their needs already – for example, blogging services, photo sharing services, social networking sites etc.

However, sometimes, there are things that these services just won’t help you with. Let’s take an example of a fledgling marketer who has seen the potential of viral marketing and found some good viral ebooks that he or she would like to promote. Unfortunately, the ability to give these away is vital if they are to work as intended, and here is where the person without hosting comes unstuck. After rebranding the viral ebook, how are they going to give it away?

Rebrandable reports are great to give away, but if you only have a free blog, posting about it won’t do you much good if you can’t send your readers to a download page. Yes, there are several sites offering a library of old PDF books that you can rebrand on their sites, and some that will host your rebranded items, but what about the thousands of PDF files you don’t or can’t get from such sites?


This has been the one thorn in the side of viral PDF ebooks and reports for a long time and has been tackled by people like Harvey Segal, the owner of the CBGuide and author of several great free viral ebooks by using a clever system that eliminates the need for people to host a viral book in order to distribute it. See his Clickbank For Newbies guide to see it in action.

However, the fact is that most viral and rebrandable reports and ebooks come in PDF format, for example, our recent report entitled Viral Clickbank Footprints.

Thanks to a recent conversation with someone who downloaded this report, there is now an answer for everyone and it’s free to use.  Sign up at FreePDFHosting.com and you will be able to upload your viral reports and ebooks, providing you follow their guidelines and as long as said files are in PDF format. Once done, you will have a URL where you can send your visitors and customers to download their copy. It’s a neat service and will solve a lot of problems for a lot of people.

A Free Web Hosting & Marketing Toolbar

Written by caymanhost on December 16, 2008 – 11:24 pm

Having recently launched a widgetized RSS Feed for webmasters and bloggers wanting to syndicate TheCaymanHost easily on their own pages, I am pleased to announce the launch of a brand new toolbar.

The toolbar focuses primarily on web hosting and domains (news articles, feeds, offers and coupons) and internet/affiliate marketing (free tools and software, ebooks, tips articles and blogs). However, there is a whole lot more to it and we will be constantly updating it with new and interesting features.

Below is a screenshot giving you an idea of what the bar looks like installed on Firefox. It is also available for IE. see the video for more detail.

toolbarcapture 1024x480 A Free Web Hosting & Marketing Toolbar

As you can see the toolbar is pretty unobtrusive sitting just above the tabs in Firefox and is very customizable to suit your needs and tastes. It can be shrunk so as not to cover the entire width of the browser and you are free to add your preferred components and delete or hide the things you do not use or need.

The toolbar will be undergoing continuing development so features will be changing quite frequently. If you are involved in hosting or looking for information on the subject our free toolbar will be a helpful addition to your browser.

It is guaranteed virus and spyware free and you can Download Your Free Toolbar Here and get access to some cool free stuff right away. I am giving away software that I normally offer in exchange for an opt-in, but if you give this new toolbar a try, you will get direct download links :-) Once installed the bar will not require any updating on your part as all updates will automatically feed through to your toolbar in real time.

So….if you want to keep up with hosting news, reviews, forums, and tips or you are interested in affiliate marketing, internet marketing, making money online etc. join my toolbar community. Aside from the core subject matter you will also find news, search, chat, games and gadgets, free offers of all kinds, streaming radio, your local weather, an email notifier etc etc. There is a lot of stuff in this bar so give google the boot and lose the spyware most of the big name toolbars infest you with :-) Enjoy.

Free Wordpress Plugin – Rating Dominator

Written by caymanhost on January 31, 2008 – 7:29 pm

Always on the lookout for excellent Wordpress plugins, I would like to recommend a new one called Rating Dominator.

This plugin has a variety of uses, but, in short will add some excellent interactivity to almost any blog, regardless of subject matter. For those operating review based sites it will be even more attractive as a must have add on.

You’ve probably seen many Wordpress blogs with ratings on their individual posts and or comments, and Rating Dominator enables you to add this functionality quickly and easily. People like to offer feedback and feel more involved, particularly with blogs they are fond of reading on a regular basis, and enabling them to give you feedback and ratings on what you write, in addition to the regular comments field is a nice little extra.

Installation of the plugin is as easy as downloading and extracting the zip file, uploading it to your plugins folder, activating it in your admin panel and setting the options you prefer.

Great plugin and highly recommended for the additional visitor satisfaction and interaction it offers. Check it out here:-

FeedGhost RSS Reader Give Away Contest

Written by caymanhost on September 15, 2007 – 12:29 pm

Recently over at the Cayman Host Blog we posted about a new RSS Feed Reader called FeedGhost and a pretty slick reader it is too.

The great news is that Stu Smith over at FeedGhost has given us three free licenses to give away to our lucky readers. If you’ve tried the Lite version already and want to use it for more than 20 feeds, or even if this is the first you’ve heard of it, keep reading. An annual license would normally cost you $20.00 but three of you are going to have a shot at grabbing a year’s use of the unrestricted FeedGhost Pro Version, free gratis and for nothing. Well, not quite nothing ;-)

In order to be eligible for this giveaway, what we are asking you to do is write us a short review of your current web hosting company. (Yes, sorry, if you don’t have your own domain and host you won’t be able to play) It doesn’t have to be a novel, just an honest appraisal of the company who host your blog at present. The three winners will be chosen by me based on these reviews.

So, why should you bother you’re thinking? Well, not only will you have a chance at winning the free license, you will also get a nice DoFollow link for your efforts and another mention of your blog in a separate post should you be one of the winners. A possible $20 for a short post/comment and link love from the Caribbean…pretty good value. Even if you don’t win you’ll still have the option of using the Lite version too!

How To Enter:- Simple, just go to our new web hosting customer reviews page, and use the comments field to leave a concise review of your host – (don’t forget to mention them by name). Basic information regarding positives/negatives, time as a customer etc. The aim of this is to share your experiences and help us kick start our customer reviews with some real user feedback. It doesn’t matter if your hosting company is listed on our pages or not, nor if someone else has already left a review, but no affiliate links for now please.

After a few weeks, depending on the response, I will announce the winners and send them their free license keys:-) Good Luck and thanks for joining in.

Free Keyword Research Tools From SEO Book

Written by caymanhost on September 4, 2007 – 10:13 pm

A short while ago over at the Cayman Host Blog I talked a little about keyword research tools and keyword spy software. This post is just to bring to your attention a couple of tools that were not available at the time of writing.

The beauty of these is that if you are a webmaster you can use them yourself and also display them on your website or blog for the convenience of your readers. The first is the Keyword Research Tool and the second a Link Analysis Tool, and we have shown both of them below so that you can see just how they will look if you decide to add them to your site.

Thanks are due to both Andy Beard for his recent post highlighting these new tools and explaining how to display them on your chosen sites and to the author, Aaron at SEO Book for making them available. They have a lot more free SEO tools for your use, so pay them a visit too and enjoy.
