For online businesses, everybody wants to be the first on search engines in order to have more exposure than anyone. So far, no matter how much SEO work you do on your website, it never seems to be enough. Among other things, we all know that search engines rankings are related with numbers of backlinks, which are links pointing back to your website.

There are many seo services that let you increase the number of backlinks of your website, but one of the most commons consist in something called directory submission, which you can submit your site to website directories. The good thing is, that you will get many backlinks pointing to your website, helping to improve your search engine rankings… The bad side of many website directories are the super-slow process, which makes you wait months until get reviewed and approved by the directories, and that’s a terrible problem when you want almost immediate results.

After continuing with this article, let’s explain what’s a website directory:

A website directory is usually defined as an alphabetical list of names and addresses for example Yellow Pages, other types of telephone directories and address books.  The online directories contain the names of websites and their URL’s.

Introducing Fast Approval

Fast Approval is a fast and easy way to get a fast review of your directory submission, within 7 days or less. This service is divided in two: Directory Owners and Directory Submitters.

Directory owners can earn cash for each submission made to their directory! Each submission will need to be reviewed by each owner within 7 days for you, in order to earn the submission fee. It’s really important to remark that if you (as owner) don’t approve a listing after 7 days, any fees will be refunded to the original website submitter.

It also offers to automatically post the new listings for you, by uploading the ResellerGo API file straight to your directory. Afraid of using its API? Don’t worry, you will always have complete control to what is published in each of your directories.

Directory submitters can use the ResellerGO control panel to get their website reviewed within 7 days! They provide reports within your account that displays the status of your submissions and also the link to each listing after it has been approved. Keep in mind there is a minimal one time fee for fast approval that is less than what most directories charge for a fast review. Remember that if you haven’t been reviewed within 7 days, your fee will be refunded automatically in the system.

How much it cost?

That’s a good question. May be you should be thinking that it’s fairly expensive because of its effectiveness but it’s not, you need to pay as low as $0.5 per approved listing!.

How long does it take to get listed on a directory?

Certain directories allow you to get your website listed almost immediately. Other directories take much more time but generally few directories take longer than 4 weeks before your website gets the necessary approval to be listed.

Benefits of using Fast Approval

As you can notice, it’s not a common url submission service. It’s called fast approval because you can submit your website to about a 1000 directories in 30 minutes. Generally the free services are much slower than the paid ones…

As you may know, the higher the PR the higher the ranking. WIth this tool you can easily submit your website to a directory with a specific Page Rank, PR range or alternatively a mix of PR ranges, It all depends on your preferences.

So if you feel an urgency of improving your search engine rankings quickly, you can try this service to achieve that goal – It has different packages and surely you will find something that fit your necessities.

Yesterday, MediaWhiz released a new program which you can use to make money online called InLinks, or also better known as Text Link Ads 2.0. MediaWhiz also runs TLA, so if you want to register to InLinks but you are already part of TLA, you will need another email address, giving you an error of database etc etc…

How It Works?

First, let’s review the Advertiser‘s side. inLinks allows you to purchase links within the content area on web pages. You search for instances of your top keywords and replace those static keywords with a hyperlink back to your website. There simply is not a more natural paid link on the market. Once you bought a link, you will have editorial control over it.

That’s sounds pretty, similar than TLA.

Now let’s review the Blogger’s side.Once the advertiser buy a link in your website, you can either approve it or deny it, giving you full editorial control. And like TLA, they have plugins for wordpress, moveable type and drupal, which you can activate in your blog and they will take care of the rest, being an automatized proccess.

The Bad

By reading the description of the program below, it seems exactly like text links ads, but there are a main and big difference.  There are two things:

• NoFollow Free: The sold links are nofollow free, which means that will be indexed by search engines.
• Not Relevancy: You are able to buy links on websites that are not even related with yours.

As you can see, there are two big problems. If you start accepting links that can be modified by the advertiser, you won’t have control at all over them. Due to these links will be free of nofollow attribute, they will affect your ranking on search engines and guess what? When Google finds that you are linking unrelated websites in yours, you will probably get slapped.

Of course, if you can approve or deny links you won’t be so stupid to accept irrelevant things, but what if the advertiser change their configuration after you accepted them?.

I don’t know, I don’t trust in that but that’s just my personal opinion, may be I’m wrong… What do you think?

Hey everyone! Finally, after a month of hard work I have finished and set up the new version of Mr Javo dot Com. Many interesting changes have been made and I would like to talk about it in order to let you know what I have improved for you.

First of all, let’s review the original version of my blog, Mr Javo 1.0:

The header was a total waste of space. The logo occupied all the header and the navigation was not the best, having in mind that if I created many pages the menu would be over the logo, something which could be seen as anti-aesthetic.

About the body, the articles showed a banner 300×250, which didn’t let me to put any imagine in the top of any post.

The footer had nothing, it just displayed a copyright and nothing else.

In general, that theme was a little slow, everything was made with big images and few CSS. The next theme is much faster, I have optimized it with less images and more CSS codes.

What’s New on Mr Javo 2.0

Basically, I made up a new theme . I have changed several things, starting with the CSS styles with which I five to this new theme a cooler look.

New logo! When I was redesigning the old theme, I wanted to improve the logo because it didn’t look like me (not at all). The thing was when I wanted to do it, I couldn’t find the .psd (photoshop file) of my logo! So I had to create a new one, which in my opinion looks more like me and as I said, it is more fresh!

No more waste of space in the header! I have reordered the header, and now you could see a 468x60px banner besides the logo, which will have the better exposure on my blog because of its position.

Better navigation! I moved the navigation menu below the header, this way it won’t be difficult for you to find it and surf through my blog.

Subheader added! I have created 3 sections below the menu. At the left, you can find the form of sign up for my newsletter, which you could receive exclusive promotions, special reports, secret tips and more! Sign up now and receive a free copy of my eBook The Affiliate’s Start Guide, with which you can learn the basics about how to create a website and start making money online!

At the center, you will find a section with the most popular posts! This way you will always have something interesting for reading.

And finally at the right, you will find the RSS subscription area, which you can subscribe to this blog through a rss reader or by email. If you want to know what should you subscribe to this blog, I invite you to take a look on the page Why Subscribe?.

The sidebar is quite similar than the old one, with some little differences on the widgets.

New sections on the footer! Now you will see 4 sections in the footer. I don’t have decided yet what will I put there, probably the categories, a little info about me, the recommended money makers or something like…

New look on comments! I updated the comments form and now you can reply to other people’s comments, something very useful which help to avoid using @user… in the comments. Also, I have changed the mybloglog avatar plugin for the Gravatar one. This avatars are widely recognized by many services, so I prefered to implement them here. If you don’t have a Gravatar, create one now!

Final Thoughts

I feel very well looking the new theme working well, but probably I missed something. If you find any error, bug or anything else don’t hesitate to contact me and notify me about the issue. By the way, I have changed my contact form too .
