Hello Everyone!

Back on July 10th I completed a post titled “My Schedule… Tuesday” where I talked about how I spend some time on Tuesdays to promote my sites via Onlywire.  I’ve since had a few people ask me if I could expand further on how I use Onlywire.  So now that I am done with the posts regarding what I do each day during the week, I thought I’d tackle a few questions I get asked quite often

Everytime I create a new website, I also create a new Onlywire account.  To create an Onlywire account (unless you are going to use their paid service) you need be able to place the code they give you on a website.  So this is why, as part of the website creation process, I sign up for a new account.  When I sign up for an account I create a unique username and password for the Onlywire account, then I use that same username and password to create all the accounts that are available within Onlywire. 

One thing I want to point out is that I VERY RARELY sign up for every service within Onlywire.  I typically choose between 7 and 14 of them to sign up for (at random) depending on the mood I’m in that day :)  I do this as a way to prevent myself from looking like a spammer (that is NOT what we are trying to do here).  If you sign up for the exact same services for each Onlywire account you have and bookmark the exact same pages to every one of them, then you definately look like you are just spamming the system.  By choosing 7 to 14 random services for each account (and then randomly bookmarking each site, we’ll get into that in a minute) it is more natural and you will accomplish so much more with your sites than if you signed up for every single service and just bookmarked the same sites over and over and over again… that method makes you look like a spammer and nobody likes that much.  I hope this makes sense

Now that we have a new account created, the first thing I do is bookmark my new site (in the new Onlywire account and a couple of the old ones).  When bookmarking your websites, it is VERY, VERY important that you fill in the “tags” section with one of your keyword phrases. Utilizing this medium to bookmark your keyword phrases will increase the link count back to your website and that is what the search engines love… ALWAYS place your keyword phrases in the “tags” section!!!

Then I randomly choose 4 - 6 of my existing websites to bookmark.  And lastly, I also choose 5 - 15 random sites on the internet to bookmark.  These random sites can be anything on the Internet, any page about anything.  You are adding these in to once again make it look natural by not having all accounts with the exact same sites bookmarked. 

I know to some of you by saying “random” it makes it seem so unorganized, but I am actually very organized and by bookmarking randomly we are staying in the borders of the rules and not spamming the bookmarking sites.  You get to stay organized with all these Onlywire accounts very easily because Onlywire keeps track of every site you have bookmarked within your account.  This is very nice, because you never have to worry about having already bookmarked a page or not :)  The only thing you will need to have available manually is a page that lists all your Username/Password combinations for your Onlywire accounts.  And, even this is automatic if you utilize a password autofill software, such as Roboform or something similar :) 

So, create accounts, bookmark your websites randomly, bookmark various websites randomly, and repeat.  Because you create a new account with every website you create, you will forever be able to promote your old websites without much work :) :) 

Best Wishes,
Shannon
