According to an eMarketer Report, there are almost 7 million more adult females online than adult males. 93.5 million men and 100.4 million women are online today.

By 2012, women online are predicted to outnumber men online by 8 million or more.

Start learning the differences between how men and women shop, buy and use the Internet. Especially if “think pink” is your idea of marketing to women.

Statistics say that women today make or influence over 80% of all purchases made. And isn’t sales the driving force behind SEO? You didn’t just want to be on page one of Google for the ego boost, did you?

Search engine optimization is very confusing to a lot of website owners, mostly because there’s more bad information floating around the Internet than good information.

When your ability to retain clients and put food on the table is directly tied to your ability to keep rankings up and traffic flowing, you get an entirely different perspective than, oh, say… a marketing guru that can just pump out a different product to stimulate profit. But I digress.

Back to the shoddy info out there. For example; no, you don’t need zillions of incoming links to land a page one spot in Google. And, no, you don’t need high PageRank or the right meta keywords, either.

Do you know why SEO (search engine optimization) is so messed up? Because a lot of people confuse visibility with popularity.

Remember grade school? If you wet your pants in class, you became very visible. Probably not very popular. Visiblity and popularity are not necessarily the same, although they can be when visibility is done right.

Same concept.

With SEO, if you confuse visibility with popularity, you will run into trouble eventually. Yes, you need to be visible. But popularity gets you the Brownie points.
