Local SEO Vs National SEO
 Andy Cocker is a Search Engine Marketing Consultant, with over 10 years’ experience. He is the founder director of Architekt Web Promotion and has recently set up a dedicated Local SEO website. In this article he explains how to get ahead with your SEO.
In 2006, iProspect, a search engine marketing firm based in Massachusetts, USA, stated in their White Paper Search Engine User Behaviour Study, “The importance of appearing high in the search results has increased over time... more search engine users are clicking on the first page now (62% [2006]) than in 2004 (60%) than in 2002 (48%). Inversely, fewer search engine users are willing to click on results past the third page now (10% [2006]) than in 2004 (13%) than in 2002 (19%).

Interview with smingle.co.uk's Frank Paul
We had a chat with Frank Paul about how to turn your website in to a money making machine...
 Which platforms have you had the best results from e.g. affiliate networks, in-house programs (e.g. Amazon), Google AdSense etc and what have you found to be the benefits and drawbacks of each?
My affiliate network of choice would have to be www.affiliatewindow.com due to their ease of use for newbies and veterans alike, and also the number of well known companies that they manage the affiliate programs for. The Amazon and Ebay in-house affiliate programs are very good and are pretty good for having anything and everything to promote.
Google Adsense has benefits and also drawbacks. The benefits being, if a visitor clicks on one of the adverts which are on your website, then you will receive money just for the click (which is more often than not very minimal) The drawback is you are sending people away from your website to another website, and in effect you are “selling” that customer to another website, with minimal benefit to yourself.
