So today is my 37th birthday and i am fortunate to have all of the time I want to invest into my internet marketing ventures. But the problem is that I believe I've hit a brick wall with my internet marketing strategies.

I think a lot of us have. And, now we've all got to be so proficient and efficient with our marketing in order to not only compete, but to rank well.

I guess I need some suggestions! It's not New Years or anything, but it's still kind of a new year since it's my birthday, so I want to move forward from today on... And I want to spend my time marketing my sites, services and products that will be beneficial and not a big waste of time.

So what's working for you guys? Seriously? Let's get it all out on the table! And I appreciate the feedback in advance!

    It's your birthday
    We gon' party like it's yo birthday
    We gon' sip Bacardi like it's your birthday
    And you know we don't give a ...

    Happy b-day man! :p

    hmm honestly its really hard to tell since we don't really know what strategies you're using etc.

    Personally, its all work, rinse and repeat. there is no such thing as too many pages, post and articles and its only a matter of time before you become the big boy on the block. The bigger my site gets and the more traffic I send, the more money I make.

    I just try not to lose focus and try to be more consistent in my work.

      I love the reply! And great tune too! I guess I am just trying not to get burned out. Since the Panda update a lot of sites got hurt, and I'd like to know what others are thinking about marketing that will be pro panda. In other words, marketing that will not cause their sites to be effected by updates like the panda update. And I also want to know what works.

      My current marketing is basically just on forums and blogging. That's it! I know there are other things I can do, but I don't know what.

    Happy birthday!

    The answer to surviving after the Panda update is....

    content, content, content!!!

    Create high quality unique content... - web 2.0 pages, blog posts, press releases, guest posting, social media marketing, etc....

    Just keep building lots of high quality content on high-traffic pages linking back to your landing pages with varied anchor-text links. These anchors will drive direct traffic as well and push your search engine rankings through the roof!

    Make sure your keyword research is spot on too

    Cheers,
    Dave
    Make sure

    honestly, you dont really have to worry about the panda update if you keep on putting good quality content. In fact, the panda update can be on your side since all the dup stuff are kinda pushed out.

    A few of my articles got affected even tho they were unique/not spun stuff but non the less, I still put out articles and things still keep getting better for me.

    Just don't let go and work at it. Thats what I did and I dont know where this is going but I like it!

    Very good! Thanks everybody! Yeah! I agree that the Panda update is actually a good thing for quality content creators. And I'm glad to see a lot of the junk sites get squeezed out of the search results. It just leaves more room for more accurate search results from people who have decent content and not just a bunch of pages full of adsense food. I currently blog daily, though I don't get a lot of search traffic. I do however get a WHOLE lot of StumbleUpon traffic. For instance, one of my sites is probably going to get close to 15,000 unique visitors this month from StumbleUpon alone. How do I harness the energy of that traffic I wonder?
