Hi Jeremy,

Hi Russel and Charles,

I build my sites using a template I buy and
I use it with FP 2003. It has a spot for adsense
in the upper left css.

I just copy and paste my articles in and do the
internal linking myself.

Will I be able to use fp 2003 with your silo-ed website
creator or will I need to get Rapid Niche Builder.

As much as I love Rapid Niche Websites, I have used FP for about 10 years. Assuming that the diagram in the first post of this thread is an accurate representation of the "silo'ed" structure, not only can FP build this sort of structure, it can do the internal linking for you so that you don't have to do it manually.

You need to read the FP help files, but have a look at the "Navigation" tab at the bottom of the page in FP to get started. You can "drag" pages into the navigation pane and add them to the hierachy diagram under any other page. Then make sure that "shared borders" are turned on in your template.

Hope this helps,

sid

Thank you Sid,

I'll try experimenting on a dummy site.

Does it make any difference that I bought my template.

Jeremy,

It could, but templates can be modified.

If the template was originally designed for FP, it may have shared borders already. If not, you can just include (with the click of the mouse) the navigation links relative to your navigation structure in a table cell, or wherever you are currently putting your manual links.

Add that include into the template into that spot, and then new pages will automatically inherit the navigation as long as you "place" them into the tree structure diagram on the navigation pane.

You can create a dummy site in FP to test/tweak it, and never publish the test site anywhere. You'll still be able to see the results and even test the actual navigation (using ctrl-click).

Hi,

Just in one of the posts above I noticed someone mentioned they use the rel="no follow" instruction for robots to not follow an affilaite link. I noticed that in the VEO report by Colin McDougall (in the original one, before the update) that this was recommended as well in order for the SEs to not see your aff links.

Could I ask: where do you put this instruction?

Is it in the link itself or is it on the page that you have affiliate links on?

Thanks!

Hi,

It's in each link. In the anchor tag (like so)

<a href="http://merchantdomain.com/salespage.htm?affid=xyz" rel="nofollow">Click Here</a>

Hope this helps,

Hi Russel:
Can you post the pros and cons of using Wordpress vs standard html sites?
thanks

Joe Cool,

Yes.

Can you please look into this with me and Charles.

I use semiologic pro and have been tweaking a way to silo using Denis's SP (wordpress) issue.

Will you give me a brief summary of this software and how yoiu have used it to create a Silo structure?

If you have not yet done this- I can get a staff member to take a peek at it.

There are pros and cons about wordpress. But mostly pros.

e-mail me at russell@themezoom.com for more details. I can work with you- or let Charles take a look at the issue. I do not OWN the software- but will back-engineer it for silo-friendly functionality if Charles hs not already.

Funny, I started out using FrontPage, went to using Traffic Equalizer, Search Engine Cloaker, Kloak-It........and now? It has come back full circle!

When I first read the TMP and The Ebook about Silos, Front Page came right to mind! It is so easy to change structures and you are correct, FP automatically updates the link changes and so on.....

Do you have any favorite templates that you prefer for Front Page? In terms of either AdSense or Affiliate Programs?

I am actually leaning towards Affiliate Sites over AdSense sites......

Nice forum and thanks to everyone for sharing!

I strongly suggest going toward affiliate based sites and use AdSense as a secondary income source.

Using "super affiliate" strategies you will make hundreds of times more revenue than an adsense based site could ever dream of.

If you haven't seen my interview of super affiliate Mark Ling then you should definitley check it out:
Super Affiliate Atrategies

If you couple super affiliate strategies with The Master Plan then you have a sure formula for profit.

Hi Charles,

I am a member of affilorama and I confirm that Mark is a real affiliate coach. I have read almost everything on affiliate marketing, and Mark's method are the easiest and the one I prefer.

I've watched the interview in the member area abour LSI and now I am doing Super affiliates sites with LSI and Silo structure.

I am doing the 90 days roadmap plan mixed with your Plan. I build only one site a month since there is more to do (maintenance, emails) with an affiliate marketing website than an affiliate sites (You just optimize and send traffic).
