For example, this site is “trying&# to rank for the phrase viral marketing. Leave Blog Comments Most blog comments are nofollowed (this means search engines aren’t supposed to give weight to the link, though I believe Yahoo and Bing still do) so they don’t provide much link juice directly. But why point it out?

I’m not naive enough to think that you would stick around here if I provided absolutely no marketing value, simply because of who I am or the brand that I’ve built. If I stumble across a blog on marketing with the same theme I’ve seen in 100 other places, it’s not going to get my attention.

These days I’m spending my time focusing on much bigger (and more competitive markets) and having a lot of success. You aren’t going to rank for ‘internet marketing’ within a few months from scratch, but you may rank for a variation on the term fairly easily. This is very popular in the UK.

In terms of affiliate marketing, it’s usually much better to own the product at the top of a Clickbank category and having thousands of people promoting it for you, rather than being one of the thousands of people promoting a product for someone else.
