How to Define Your Keyword Price on Google?

Recently Hal Varian, Google Chief Economist, explain in Google Blog of how the search engine define the process of keyword pricing, heres the excerpt of  5 (Five) Step of Pricing Process

  1. Each advertiser enters a list of keywords, ads, and bids.
  2. When a user enters a query, Google compiles a list of all the ads whose keywords match that query.
  3. The list of ads is then ordered based on the bids and the Ad Quality Scores, which measure the relevance of the ad to the user.
  4. The highest ranked ad is displayed in the most prominent position, the second highest ranked ad gets the second most prominent position, and so on.
  5. If the user clicks on an ad, the advertiser is charged a price that depends on the bid and Quality Score of the advertiser below it. The price charged is the minimum necessary to retain the advertiser’s position in the list.

This process is really important to learn if you serious on PPC advertising, so make sure you aim for low pricing keyword, or high on price but worth it.

8 (Eight) Simple Way To Build Your Online Professional Image

personal online brand

I found some good tips on U.S. News & World Report’s Web site for the eight best ways to buff your professional image. So, put on your PR hat and take notes. Here’s the synopsis:

1. Google yourself. You should Google your name to see what others will see if they do the same.

2. Choose the right professional name. If you have a common name, like John Smith, you can start differentiating yourself by adding a middle initial every time you refer to yourself online. My name was pretty rare in English World so I still use 2 word name Andika Kusuma.

3. Use credentials consistently. Be sure to add all MCSEs and CCNAs to your résumé, bio, business card, and so on, and do so consistently.

4. Create public profiles. Youcan use the social bookmarking like friendter and facebook for you personal branding

5. Build a Web site. You can make a blog in blogspot or wordpress or with your own domain, This is a good idea if you do a lot of public speaking or technical writing.

6. Create links. Links is important for online networking. Search Engine can list your site higher if you have many links that link to your website.

7. Become an expert. Gunn recommends that you start your own blog or contribute to others. I was feeling kind of ahead of the game until she added this part: “Be insightful and thought provoking (without burning bridges). Be smart, and keep within the bounds of good taste.” (I think that ship may already have sailed for me.)

8. Push the bad stuff out of sight. Yes this is the most important one…. You hirer don’t want to see you in bad shape.

Think of yourself as your own PR staff. If you have a lot of career accomplishments under your belt, now is the time to make sure the word gets out.

Don’t Delete Your Email on Google, Archive it

Do you have Gmail Account? if yes, then you may need to Archive only….. not delete.

WHY? Google explain it why you must archive it here.

Actually I almost never visit gmail at home because I download all my email to my computer, and I use Gmail as my email based (I redirect all my email from yahoo, hotmail and other to gmail) its easier to manage when you have it all in one account and filter it using your email client.

Tracking URLs

Your ads will be approved if the URL of your landing page domain matches that of your Display URL domain.

For example, the following would be acceptable:

However, this example would be unacceptable:

  • Destination URL: www.trackingurl.com/google123
  • Landing page URL: www.trackingurl.com

Sub-Domains

The use of sub-domains and additional text within the display will continue to be acceptable, provided the top-level domain matches the URL of your landing page.

For example, the Display URLs below would be acceptable for the landing page URL of http://sub.google.com/miscellaneous, as the top-level domains match:

  • sub.google.com
  • google.com/extratext
