The Job Search Rules

The Job Search Rules

I just have to share this little project with you. I know it does not relate to the Job Search Process, but nonetheless, I think you will find it interesting.

Today is Thursday February 5, 2009 and just 2 weeks ago I embarked on a case study. A study that could and did prove, that you can rank a website or blog very well on Google in a very short time. And do it at zero cost, through Organic Marketing!

I started a blog called Best Affiliate Marketing Tools. This would be the home of my case study and I would document things as I went along. This past Monday I even did a youtube video about the project.

In just two weeks I was able to take the Best Affiliate Marketing Tools blog from nowhere to the # 2 position on page one of Google for that long tail keyword phrase. I was to say the least, completely over the top. You know, people normally pay huge money to achieve a page 1 ranking on Google, and here I was doing it for zero dollars.

For the record, I did have help using Peter Drews Brute Force SEO software. I learned about keyword research, blogging, RSS feeds, article marketing, social bookmarking and pinging. Done properly, these are all the things needed to move up in the Google rankings.

I must admit I am currently looking for someone to mastermind this project with, as once you fully grasp the achievement here, you will see the huge potential getting any site or blog to page 1 on Google. The possibilities are truly limitless.

So again, sorry for getting off topic here but I just felt compelled to share my new success with everyone. For starters, just type in a Google search window, the phrase Best Affiliate Marketing Tools and you will see the blog ranked on page one, in the # 2 position. It still just blows my mind!

The
Best Affiliate Marketing Tools - A Case Study With Proof! video on youtube is also here. As always, I look forward to your feedback.

The Job Search Rules

The Job Search Rules

I have covered a great deal of material related to getting hired or promoted on this blog. One thing I feel I must share is an article I wrote for ezinearticles about 16 months ago called
Cover Letter - Volunteer Magic.

It talks to the importance of bringing your volunteer work to the forefront in your cover letter and thus your resume. The article has been read almost 2,000 times or about 4 times a day, everyday.

It obviously is resonating with people and when time permits I would encourage you to read it if you haven't already seen it. It would appear to be one of the more important job search rules to keep in mind.
