Hello everyone, I want to ask you some advice before starting my business. I`ve already chose CB product that I`m going to promove, I`ve done keyword research and have a plan how get as much as possible backlinks, but one think I still dont know what to do: Should I buy domain, create a landing page and start backlinking to my domain, or I should create squidoo, or hub pages or something like this? Thanks
Depends... If you want to do it the free method then create a squidoo, hubpage, wetpaint, blogger etc profile. When you create it make sure your tittle or username (some use your username in the URL like blogger) with your keyword. That works fine! Or if you want you can spend about $10 a year on a domain name with your keyword however I found it better and faster to rank on Google and other search engines via Squidoo and other pages as they are already well backlinked and trusted by Google. Otherwise you are going to have to build that trust for your own domain name.
thanks for advise, I ve been thinking sake about squidoo hub pages etc... I can spend 10$ for domain, but also then i woud need hosting and get trust from google and good ranking... All I need now is to create content(witch is not easy for me with my writer skills) and what page is the best to use? squidoo, hub pages or what? thanks
You can also use an article directory as your landing page, if you will be doing article marketing. Though some of your visitors will be stolen by their adsense adds, article directories rank like magic if you know how to to it.
If its hubpages VS Squidoo I'd go with Squidoo, hubpages are stricter with how many links you are allowed to commercial websites, and I think the Squidoo system is easier to use and friendlier
If you want to independent buy a domain and use it, But you should't forget that when you use squidoo or hub etc, you can be punished because of your content, if you want to be free you should use a domain
I'd say if you can, definitely purchase your own domain. You can also create both hubpages and squidoo pages (and tons of other web 2.0 properties) that backlink them to your own domain (and directly to the vendor's page with squidoo). But as others have mentioned, you will not control these other websites, and they can pull down your page at any time they feel like it if they decide they don't like the content, so it's better to build your business using your own domain that you own and control the content on... Keep in mind though, it can take a while for your own domain to show up in the search results, so in the meanwhile you might want to do some article marketing (which will also help build backlinks to your site as well) using EzineArticles, ArticleBase or the like. Hubpages and squidoo will also often show high quickly in the search results, which is why you might want to create these as well and use them to also build backlink's to your site.
