SEO for Africa
| Toronto SEO Training | ||||||||||||||||||
SEO for Africa is an initiative designed to help Toronto business owners improve the search engine rankings of their websites and gain SEO training while supporting African entrepreneurs in need of micro-financing loans. Every month we will explore a different SEO topic to help your website rank higher in Google. The proceeds from the workshops will be given to African entrepreneurs who are trying to build better lives for themselves by starting and growing their own businesses. Next Topic: Link Building (March 31st, 2011): Link Building: Date, Time: Thursday, March 31, 2011, 7:00PM In this workshop we'll look at 8 basic link building strategies that any website owner can use to quickly build their links. We'll then look at another 8 more advanced strategies that will take extra time and might require a more technical understanding. Coming out of this workshop you'll be armed with a number of ideas that you can immediately start using to build your links and drive your rankings higher. I've personally used these techniques to build over 170,000 recognized links to my website (according to Google). As a result almost 800,000 people visited my site last month. I'll also be doing another SiteClinic where at the end I will look at a website of one of the registrants coming to the event and will give specific SEO advice so that they can learn as well as everyone else in the room. If you're interested in being featured in the SiteClinic section please email me after you register and tell me a little about your site and the challenges you're having. One person will be picked at random to be featured. Website owners will leave with a list of practical suggestions that you can immediately implement to make more money online as well as get answers to their other online marketing questions. And, of course, all the money raised goes to a good cause! Some of the comments from our recent workshops: Hi Evan, I just want to drop a few lines to thank you for your seminars about Search Engine Optimization. With your tips and advice our website passed from not ranking in the top 100 at all, to rank on the first page when searching for the keywords we've chosen. We are even number one on some of them like Accpac Kingston or Sage CRM Barrie. We are starting to receive leads, which is a good start considering that is the first time our website has generated any. We know that we have still have a lot of work to do, but this is a very encouraging begining. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge, Sincerely, Astrid Wadnipar-Machon "Being in the tech industry I figured it was time to figure out search engine optimization for my business. One SEO for Africa session gave me enough insight and knowledge to put my web site on the first page and the first result for some key words. It's definitely worth attending SEO for Africa and will definitely be attending more!" - Mark Arteaga

What is Microfinancing? They are very small loans, as little as $25, made to the rural poor in developing countries who normally do not qualify for traditional banking credit. This is often the only way they can establish a business and lift themselves out of poverty. The goal is help Africa's working poor make great strides towards economic independence. The concept of extending loans to a largely female client base has also been credited with reducing domestic violence by giving women a previously unattainable degree of independence. Entrepreneurs who receive microfinancing loans dramatically improve their family's standard of living and may create up to 3-5 new jobs per loan.
