			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So my focus at work has been &#8220;refocused&#8221; on getting better placement for high traffic keywords in our niche, auto loans. Now this vertical has been a pretty competitive one for some time now. Granted there are ALOT fewer people in the space, but the space is still over crowded. I will be trying to get placement on some of the highest searched words in our space. <span id="more-93"></span></p>
<p>When you think about buying a car one of the first things to  cross your mind is, &#8220;How the heck am I gonna pay for this car?&#8221; Well when people start to think about that exact question we want to be the company that they find when they search for an auto loan on the internet. Right now my company currently is very prominent in the bad credit sector of the auto loans market but pretty unknown in the main stream of automotive financing.</p>
<p>My goal is to take at least one of our sites to the top of page one for auto, auto loans, car loan, or car loans.  I will achieve this by getting around 300 inbound links along with major socialization of these sites.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When it comes to getting business from the internet there just aren&#8217;t very many car dealers in Lansing, MI that understand how it works, let alone how it should be done. I have decided to take on the challenge of dominating the local search engine results pages for  cars in the entire Lansing area. I will be trying to get on the first page of each of the 4 major search engines (Google, Yahoo, MSN, Ask) for number of high volume of local keywords. I believe that I&#8217;ll be able to do this on a single domain and have at least 10 keywords within a couple of weeks.<span id="more-84"></span></p>
<p>So first off the keywords I will be going after are going to be be targeted at local areas and 9 out of 10 times include the actual city name that I am trying to get. I will also be trying to get a page one rank for each Lansing car dealership name, ie. Saywers Chevrolet. Currently this site has been out for just over a year but it really hasn&#8217;t taken on a life of it&#8217;s own. I already have decent ranking for most of the generic terms that I went after in the beginning but now I want to expand the site and get more user involvement.</p>
<p>So the domain name that I will be using for this challenge id LansingUsedCar.com. I like to try and get rankings for the low hanging fruit before we I go in for the more generic terms, not this time. I have a great domain and I think I can get it pushed up in the rankings for  genric terms fairly quick.</p>
<ol>
<li>Lansing Used Car</li>
<li>Lansing Used Cars</li>
<li>Used Cars Lansing</li>
<li>Lansing Mi Used Cars</li>
<li>Lansing MI Used Car</li>
</ol>
<p>The first step in this process is to set up the site so that it&#8217;s user friendly and architecturally sound. We have to create a clear and  concise path for both users and search bots. The site currently is pretty clustered and the users don&#8217;t even know they can sell their cars for free. After we get the site flow right and look half way decent we&#8217;ll get this bad boy out there and get it ranked even higher for these terms and many more.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So working in SEO I have learned quit a bit about how search engines work. I have seen many, many, many changes over the past 10 years and every time I&#8217;ve had to learn what the changes were and how to compensate for them. Bing is no exception, or is it? There are certain rules that Bing (MSN, LIVE) have followed that no other SE follows.<span id="more-65"></span></p>
<p><strong>Rule #1</strong> &#8211; The domain is king! It doesn&#8217;t matter if you have a url like this www.cashforclunkers.com or www.cash&#8211;for&#8211;clunkers.com, as long as the domain has the same words as the search. This used to be the case with Google but it really isn&#8217;t any longer. Sure the domain name does have a lot of weight, but Google will automatically discount any double hyphenated domains and treat them as SERP spam. Bing will allow these domains to appear in the results as long as the content matches the domain.</p>
<p><strong>Rule #2</strong> &#8211; Weigh the site down with your keywords from the top of the page right on down to the bottom. Repeat it in as many places as you can. With the other search engines this tactic will <strong>NOT </strong>work. Bing loves to see an exact match for the search keyword and thinks that if it&#8217;s repeated on the page that the page must be relevant.</p>
<p><strong>Rule #3</strong> &#8211; Just like with any other search engine you need to make sure that there is a sufficient amount of site content. As I am sure you have already looked at Bing and it&#8217;s results you will notice that almost every top listed site, no matter  the topic, has a list of pages that appear when you hover over a result. These extra links do exactly as Bing claims on their newest ad campaign, it gives answers. When you have a topic for your site , even a one paragraph topic, make sure to create a page and title it properly, this way it will show up in the side bar of the rollover. This will give you a much better chance of getting the potential client to convert. If you answer their questions they will take action.</p>
<p><strong>Rule #4</strong> &#8211; Remember to keep you site up to date. Bing is a &#8220;fast&#8221; engine. What I mean by that is, Bing doesn&#8217;t have results in their top 10 for that long if the site is not updated. I have had sites disappear from Bing if the content is not up to date or the site hasn&#8217;t been touched in a month. Usually it takes about 30 days for the site to go away if you haven&#8217;t updated it, so be sure to at least put a constantly updating feed on the home page or a rotating text of some kind<strong>.</strong></p>
<p>By following these couple rules, you should have NO problem making it to the top of Bing and staying there.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We had a fun filled soccer weekend with Christian&#8217;s premier team playing up in Saginaw for their first games together.  Christian did extremely well at all of his games but unfortunately I could only make it to the game on Sunday.  On Saturday he ended up showing his teammates that he could be a leader. From what I what I saw on the field Sunday morning, at 8:00AM, he has  improved his game both physically and mentally  since the spring season. He was the only person on his team that didn&#8217;t have a sub come in for his position.   <span id="more-80"></span></p>
<p>In the first half of the game I got to watch Christian was able to make himself available for the shot almost at will.  Unfourtunatly he is playing with some kids who just aren&#8217;t as aware of the game game that&#8217;s going on around them or else he could have very easily had 5 or 6 shots on goal, instead  he ended the half with only 1 shot on goal.</p>
<p>The second half of the game was where I saw him do what he does best, set up shots from the left.  It&#8217;s amazing to me  that he is able to see and set up both the center forward and center mid fielder almost at will. He has a way that he is able to place the ball almost perfectly every time even if the forwards aren&#8217;t in the right position to take the shot.</p>
<p>In the end Phoenix lost 5-2 but Christian did a great job! I can&#8217;t wait to see the rest of his games this fall!</p>
