I have purchased software through JV Zoo before and just started receiving emails about hijacking software so you can take over anyone's website and make it your own. I find t

When I go to JV Zoo it is to find scams. Does this tell you anything?

Thanks Labman. I thought they were considered reputable until I saw this email for software hijacking.

Thanks Carson. It's not something I would ever dream of purchasing, I was just concerned that this type of hijacking is possible. Thanks for such a quick response.

Hi Kathy,

Any software claiming to steal affiliate links etc is a computer virus. And in order for that to work the computer virus would need to be installed on every one of your visitors who visit your site. In other words it's not going to happen. In my 13 years in this industry, I've never seen or heard of this happening. These ridiculous programs and scare tactics have been around since the beginning of the internet. Nothing to worry about at all. Ignore the emails you are getting, they are 100% bogus.

JV zoo is going to do anything for you either. I would suggest getting a refund, total smoke and mirrors product that won't benefit you in any way.

JV's are never worth it, you will give more than you receive every time.

Carson

Do not put any links you get from JVZoo on your website they are all a bunch of hackers that will take your commissions.

Thanks for the warning Tommy.

What is it called.

The email didn't specify a name.

That says it all

Hi Everyone-

I have a question about ranking on page 1 of Google. After creating a website and fine tuning it I still struggle with ranking on page 1. I know this is a

Thanks so much Alexisnilo....I will check out that page and see if your comment has shown up. Thanks for checking out my website.

Hi Kathy, I tryed to leave a comment on your aloe vera post, but it did not let me.

Hi, thanks for this informative post, I will tell my wife, she'll be happy to know about the properties of Aloe Vera, we have lots of this plant on our garden, and she sometimes suffer from colitis.

Thanks so much for your feedback and leaving a positive comment on my site. I believe you mentioned EFT therapy before to me and I find it to be an interesting way to deal with G.I. symptoms. I will be adding a page on that in the near future. Thanks again for your help!

Very informative information that you currently have on your site. I left a comment for you in the diet portion.

Thanks for such a quick response Steve.

From what I can see, so far you have 8 pages. 3 of them you will not rank for: About, privacy and disclaimer.
The url for your Natural Remedies page reads: natural-remedies-for-colitis-what-you-need-to-know
That is the phrase you are more likely to rank for and it gets less than 10 searcher per month.
Your site and content look really good. I think you just need more content.
As far as SEO goes, make sure your keyword is in the title and somewhere within the first paragraph of your article.

Can anyone shed some light on seo and page 1 on google?

I want to write product reviews on items I like and use myself. Since these products are in different niches, do I need to create separate websites/domain names for each review

You could use something like StargazeRecommends.com and then include reviews of anything you like.

Thanks so much for the idea and quick response.

I would probably tend towards doing them on one site but I think you need to think of your readers and potential customers - is that what they would want? Will your site make sense to them? Answer those questions and you will know which way to go. :) Beverley

Hi-
Thanks to everyone for your quick responses and help. The support here is wonderful. I thought about the direction I want to head and I am going to focus on a niche that I can include several product reviews. Thanks again...

Yes of course you can. Many review sites use reviews as their base, but they also jam articles in about other events and products as well. You can separate them into categories. Of course the whole basic concept I believe here is the niche site should only have your one area category that you want to come across as specializing in to build your authority. But once you start getting traffic and repeat customers, I think the larger sites also branch off into other material to keep their readers interested. At least that is what I will be doing.

IThis is my own experience I started my website with the idea to talk about wine, but then I saw that wine and food go hand in hand, but also an adequate diet along with a healthy way of life adetermine a lifestyle. Well finally my niche became very wide and am working on it I don't know if I'am doing right.

Starting out with a very wide niche is exactly a problem for many. We have little traffic and if we cannot capture that traffic with our content about a specific product or service, then we tend to come across as less knowledgeable on what the main thing is we are talking about. And seem to generalize too many other things we know less about.
Hope this helps.
Rick
Yes you need to do wine, not food, or food, not wine, or health only, or lifestyle only. Cannot succeed at grabbing traffic under such a wide field, it just doesn't work that way. Even though most of us start out thinking the broader the better and more traffic. Wrong though. Today advertisements specialize in one thing, and they do that one thing better then anyone else. That is the concept.

I think you could do it as one website. You could make categories of the different products you write about. For instance, marketing, hair care, health etc. Try to come up with a name that will cover all of it.

Good question! I don't know how well my answer will be. A lot of people will probably be able to answer better, but I would try to keep your website about a certain niche.

You could do a book website and review a lot of different books, compare hardback to ebooks, or maybe even a review of a movie based on a book telling how it was different, but I wouldn't do a review of a new car on your book website.

If you don't want to buy too many domains than you could try doing something like "reviews.com" and add subdomains. You could have "books.reviews.com" and "cars.reviews.com".

Just be creative and try to make all your products relate in some way or another :)

I know you can embed Youtube videos on your website, but what about actually having them play on your site? I have seen software that find and post Youtube videos on your site

Thank you I appreciate your help guys

Thanks so much for everyone's help.

the standard embed method allows vids to play where you place them...there is a grey "YouTube" logo on the bottom right of the vid to enable the visitor to click on it and play it on YTube, but most won't....if it is on message to what you have on your page....
Baz's training is good- do pay attention to the size of your content box- and use a custom size if you need the player embed to be a certain size- experimentation and using the preview option should be fine to get it right.

Hi I have just created a bog on this very subject

You can both copy the link to your site or embed the video on it. One is not allowed to edit the video or withdraw the credits.

Thanks so much for such quick responses!

Anything that anyone posts on YouTube, (as long as there's a share link underneath it) is fair game. I never heard of any software. But copying and pasting the video's code is a snap! The only thing I would try to avoid when doing that, is finding video's from someone like me! --- who has their website address plastered all over it!! I want to keep them on my OWN site as long as possible.

When you embed the video from YouTube, it will be playable on your site. You don't have to worry so much about the copyright issues when you do that.

Hi Everyone-

I just joined Pinterest to promote my website http:colitisandnaturalremedies.com and my pins aren't showing up at all except under my profile. I made sure t

I find that they take while to rise and become visible, probably a bit like getting ranked, Isimaus (Janine) loves Pinterest and has blogged on it, so maybe check her stuff out?

Thanks again for coming to my rescue!

Thanks Rick.....I searched all over Pinterest and haven't discovered what I could be doing wrong. Just a small bump on the road to success :-)

Not sure. I am sure someone will be along to help you though, and I can find the answer also.
Pins are important!
Love your look!
