web site promotion internet marketing

SEO in the niche of web hosting and domain name registration


In this article we`ll try to generalize our practices in promotion of companies that provide web hosting and domain registration services.


We will talk about such questions:



  • Analysis of hosting / domain name registration market and finding potentially advantageous promotion directions;

  • Features of keywords selection in the conditions of SEO-pressure

  • Definition of promotion strategy

  • Methods of getting links

  • Features of different queries groups conversion depending on geography

  • Typical problems that interfere sites conversion and ways of their solution


Market analysis and competitive researches. Finding potentially advantageous promotion directions


First of all, it is necessary to note that a large traffic in the niche of web hosting is deceptive. If you look at Google AdWords Keyword Tool data you will find out the following picture:



In fact, there are about 400-500 visits from the 8th– 9th place for a query “hosting” per month. It`s necessary to consider this and other points while planning hosting project promotion, because information about a large amount of queries in the Google AdWords Keyword Tool is “stuffed” with endless positions checks. As the market of hosting projects and domain name registrars is extremely competitive, you have a great chance to invest money, work and time in promotion of such queries that are stuffed and do not bring traffic and sales, and after all you can incur losses and even remain disappointed in the search promotion at all. The same can be said about domain name registration.



In fact, there are about 500-600 visits from the 5th – 6th place for a query “domain” per month.


That`s why, in our opinion, it`s better to begin promotion of hosting project or domain name registrar with finding active competitors in the search marketing niche and define their strategies.  For this purpose we can recommend a wonderful tool – SemRush.


So, we need to find competitor sites in our niche, which are actively engaged in the Internet marketing. We just type highly competitive query corresponding to the topic in SemRush and find sites that are ranked well for it:



Now we need to make cleaning, i.e., remove irrelevant sites from the list. In this case, obviously, Wikipedia must be removed from the list. After checking a few queries important for you in the same way, we will receive a “crossed” list of sites. Sites from this list have good rankings for many queries in this subject, so they should be examined primarily.


Lets take a site hostgator.com as an example:



The example shows that, firstly, the number of search queries for which the site “hostgator” is shown has an explicit trend to growth. It reflects the efforts made by the owners of this project to increase its visibility in search engines.



After selection of queries that bring maximum traffic to the project according to SemRush, we get an approximate keywords list which can be used to start promotion.


Making the list of necessary keywords, let’s see whether it is a good idea for us to «meddle into a fight» for these keywords. You should consider such factor, as SEO-pressure, for this purpose.


Features of keywords selection in the conditions of SEO-pressure


You can use different tools to estimate a competition for the selected query. A plug-in for FireFox called SeoQuake is one of convenient free instruments.


Let’s type a relevant query interesting for us, e.g., business hosting:



You can see that some strong sites are present in SERP, and some of them have got from several hundreds thousand to millions of backlinks and even more. The competition in SERPs is about to be really strong, so I would like to repeat: you should select a semantic core very carefully. Moreover, there are sometimes artifacts in SERPs, and learning them is possible only from experience. Let’s take the query “ecommerce hosting”. This query is high frequency in subtopic «hosting for ecommerce sites», it has about 12 thousand searches per month in exact match worldwide:



We can see that the trends of search don’t show any sudden jumps or drops.



The target audience for these queries is in the U.S. and UK – the most creditworthy regions in general. However, traffic for such query from the American Google Top5 – Top6 is about 1-3 persons a day, with natural drops on weekends; it gives us about 40 people a month. A conversion rate for these queries is extremely low. Of course, promotion for this queries is acceptable only with the purposes of improving positioning and brand awareness, but as for sales it isn`t effective.


Let`s take a query “reseller web hosting” which has next data from Google KeyWord Tool worldwide, for comparison:




The query brings twice more traffic from the 4th-5th places having twice smaller amount of searches in exact match according to Google KeyWord Tool! Conversion rate of this query is also quite high. At that, Google Insights give the following data:



At the same time the great part of traffic and transactions comes from the U.S. and UK users despite of the fact that the site holds comparable positions also in Google.co.in.


All of these patterns are also true for domain name registrars.


It’s impossible to know this information without experience in promoting a site for such queries or without trying PPC advertising in exact match. There are a lot of keywords like these, so you should constantly monitor all queries in the aggregate estimating of the effectiveness of each one.


You can also “pull out” perspective keywords making the analysis of the backlinks text anchor to sites of competitors who are actively engaged in search marketing. You can use special tools, for example, CS Yazzle or SEO SpyGlass by LinkAssistant, either manually using Yahoo! Site Explorer.



To estimate a real traffic on a query you may also try PPC in exact match.


The following method can be used to estimate keywords efficiency. The initial necessary data is:



  • Position for a keyword;

  • Traffic on it;

  • Estimated number of searches from Google Keyword Tool in the exact and phrase match for the world and top regions;

  • Quantity of page views;

  • Time spent on a site;

  • Bounce rate;

  • Conversion rate.


Microsoft Excel counts a parity of all these factors with the help of formulas and allows realizing efficiency/inefficiency of each keyword visually.



Perspective traffic, quantity of searches per month (data of Google AdwordsKeywordTool) and conversion data for each query are marked with green color. Indicators exceeded the average indicators for the site to the worse are marked with red (bounce rate, number of pages reviews).The percent of conversion which vastly differs to better from the average indicator for the site is marked with yellow color in the last column (Conversion rate).


Using this technique allows tracking the most convertible requests and receiving greater outcome from a client’s site.


Selection of promotion strategy


Based on our experience in promotion of projects in the niche of hosting and domain names registration we can say that the most high-frequency, convertible and competitive queries are in these topics exactly.


Shared vs VPS vs Dedicated


If to compare an earning power of dedicated servers sale (VPS) and earning power of shared hosting sale you will come to the conclusion that in general virtual (Shared) hosting sale is more profitable: one dedicated server sale brings around 200$ of income, at the same time sale of the same server “cutted” on virtual (Shared) hosting allows to earn much more (~100×5$), even with the consideration of the increasing load on a support.


However, traffic in Shared hosting subtopic is much less than in dedicated server subtopic. People interested in such things, according to our observations, come by queries like “cheap hosting”, “cheap web hosting”, and the quantity of such searches is very small because Godaddy and Hostgator take away the lion’s share of these customers, mainly due to type-in traffic.


In this case, it seems to be a good decision to perform promotion in the VPS and Dedicated sector.


Many companies, apparently, have come to the same conclusion: promotion for queries of “shared” group is much easier, than for queries related to dedicated servers.


Specialized kinds of hosting


As we have noted above, low-frequency traffic brings rather small part in general traffic and conversion; therefore, in our opinion, it`s better to begin promotion for high-frequency keywords with addition low – and mid-frequency keywords, which give a great bulk of sales and target traffic on a site. However, if your hosting site sells “exotic ” types of hosting, such as hosting with support of Zen Cart or Django, then such low-frequency, long-tail keywords can justify themself at the initial stages of promotion.


A cost of their promotion to the Top-10 is small, and similar “exotic hosting” is usually searched by people who understand the subject well and thus type long queries in search bars.


Eventually, when the site starts to rank well for competitive queries, it makes sense to “collect” low-frequency “long tail” of queries in subjects, not to miss this small piece of the market.


Also I would like to notice that promotion for keywords like “hosting” and “web hosting” is extremely difficult process due to high competition (though these keywords begin to “sell” beginning from top-20!)


Methods of getting links


The basis of search optimization are at the moment:



  • keyword research;

  • texts and meta tags optimization according to the keywords;

  • adding backlinks with correct “anchors” (with right reference texts).


As we have already noted, hosting sites have a large number of backlinks. How do they receive so many backlinks? This is obvious, that reviews and comments at forums will never help to collect tens thousands of links. Four main methods used in this theme should be picked out. Some of them are typical for other niches and some of them have unusual “boom” exactly in hosting and domain subjects.



  • Link exchange (the proper way)


  • Links buying (the smart way)

  • Getting links through its own affiliate program.


Conversion of search traffic


Let’s look at the comparative analysis of search traffic conversion in various regions (sample of more than 90.000 sales for “domain names” and more than 2000 sales for the “hosting” market):

Market analysis and competitive researches. Finding potentially advantageous promotion directions


First of all, it is necessary to note that a large traffic in the niche of web hosting is deceptive. If you look at Google AdWords Keyword Tool data you will find out the following picture:



In fact, there are about 400-500 visits from the 8th– 9th place for a query “hosting” per month. It`s necessary to consider this and other points while planning hosting project promotion, because information about a large amount of queries in the Google AdWords Keyword Tool is “stuffed” with endless positions checks. As the market of hosting projects and domain name registrars is extremely competitive, you have a great chance to invest money, work and time in promotion of such queries that are stuffed and do not bring traffic and sales, and after all you can incur losses and even remain disappointed in the search promotion at all. The same can be said about domain name registration.



In fact, there are about 500-600 visits from the 5th – 6th place for a query “domain” per month.


That`s why, in our opinion, it`s better to begin promotion of hosting project or domain name registrar with finding active competitors in the search marketing niche and define their strategies.  For this purpose we can recommend a wonderful tool – SemRush.

Sites from this list have good rankings for many queries in this subject, so they should be examined primarily.


Lets take a site hostgator.com as an example:



The example shows that, firstly, the number of search queries for which the site “hostgator” is shown has an explicit trend to growth. It reflects the efforts made by the owners of this project to increase its visibility in search engines.



After selection of queries that bring maximum traffic to the project according to SemRush, we get an approximate keywords list which can be used to start promotion.


Making the list of necessary keywords, let’s see whether it is a good idea for us to «meddle into a fight» for these keywords. You should consider such factor, as SEO-pressure, for this purpose.


Features of keywords selection in the conditions of SEO-pressure


You can use different tools to estimate a competition for the selected query. A plug-in for FireFox called SeoQuake is one of convenient free instruments.


Let’s type a relevant query interesting for us, e.g., business hosting:



You can see that some strong sites are present in SERP, and some of them have got from several hundreds thousand to millions of backlinks and even more. The competition in SERPs is about to be really strong, so I would like to repeat: you should select a semantic core very carefully. Moreover, there are sometimes artifacts in SERPs, and learning them is possible only from experience. Let’s take the query “ecommerce hosting”. This query is high frequency in subtopic «hosting for ecommerce sites», it has about 12 thousand searches per month in exact match worldwide:



We can see that the trends of search don’t show any sudden jumps or drops.



The target audience for these queries is in the U.S. and UK – the most creditworthy regions in general.

A conversion rate for these queries is extremely low. Of course, promotion for this queries is acceptable only with the purposes of improving positioning and brand awareness, but as for sales it isn`t effective.


Let`s take a query “reseller web hosting” which has next data from Google KeyWord Tool worldwide, for comparison:




The query brings twice more traffic from the 4th-5th places having twice smaller amount of searches in exact match according to Google KeyWord Tool! Conversion rate of this query is also quite high. At that, Google Insights give the following data:



At the same time the great part of traffic and transactions comes from the U.S. and UK users despite of the fact that the site holds comparable positions also in Google.co.in.


All of these patterns are also true for domain name registrars.


It’s impossible to know this information without experience in promoting a site for such queries or without trying PPC advertising in exact match. There are a lot of keywords like these, so you should constantly monitor all queries in the aggregate estimating of the effectiveness of each one.


You can also “pull out” perspective keywords making the analysis of the backlinks text anchor to sites of competitors who are actively engaged in search marketing. You can use special tools, for example, CS Yazzle or SEO SpyGlass by LinkAssistant, either manually using Yahoo! Site Explorer.



To estimate a real traffic on a query you may also try PPC in exact match.


The following method can be used to estimate keywords efficiency. The initial necessary data is:



  • Position for a keyword;

  • Traffic on it;

  • Estimated number of searches from Google Keyword Tool in the exact and phrase match for the world and top regions;

  • Quantity of page views;

  • Time spent on a site;

  • Bounce rate;

  • Conversion rate.


Microsoft Excel counts a parity of all these factors with the help of formulas and allows realizing efficiency/inefficiency of each keyword visually.



Perspective traffic, quantity of searches per month (data of Google AdwordsKeywordTool) and conversion data for each query are marked with green color. Indicators exceeded the average indicators for the site to the worse are marked with red (bounce rate, number of pages reviews).The percent of conversion which vastly differs to better from the average indicator for the site is marked with yellow color in the last column (Conversion rate).


Using this technique allows tracking the most convertible requests and receiving greater outcome from a client’s site.


Selection of promotion strategy


Based on our experience in promotion of projects in the niche of hosting and domain names registration we can say that the most high-frequency, convertible and competitive queries are in these topics exactly.


Shared vs VPS vs Dedicated


If to compare an earning power of dedicated servers sale (VPS) and earning power of shared hosting sale you will come to the conclusion that in general virtual (Shared) hosting sale is more profitable: one dedicated server sale brings around 200$ of income, at the same time sale of the same server “cutted” on virtual (Shared) hosting allows to earn much more (~100×5$), even with the consideration of the increasing load on a support.


However, traffic in Shared hosting subtopic is much less than in dedicated server subtopic. People interested in such things, according to our observations, come by queries like “cheap hosting”, “cheap web hosting”, and the quantity of such searches is very small because Godaddy and Hostgator take away the lion’s share of these customers, mainly due to type-in traffic.


In this case, it seems to be a good decision to perform promotion in the VPS and Dedicated sector.


Many companies, apparently, have come to the same conclusion: promotion for queries of “shared” group is much easier, than for queries related to dedicated servers.


Specialized kinds of hosting


As we have noted above, low-frequency traffic brings rather small part in general traffic and conversion; therefore, in our opinion, it`s better to begin promotion for high-frequency keywords with addition low – and mid-frequency keywords, which give a great bulk of sales and target traffic on a site. However, if your hosting site sells “exotic ” types of hosting, such as hosting with support of Zen Cart or Django, then such low-frequency, long-tail keywords can justify themself at the initial stages of promotion.


A cost of their promotion to the Top-10 is small, and similar “exotic hosting” is usually searched by people who understand the subject well and thus type long queries in search bars.


Eventually, when the site starts to rank well for competitive queries, it makes sense to “collect” low-frequency “long tail” of queries in subjects, not to miss this small piece of the market.


Also I would like to notice that promotion for keywords like “hosting” and “web hosting” is extremely difficult process due to high competition (though these keywords begin to “sell” beginning from top-20!)


Methods of getting links


The basis of search optimization are at the moment:



  • keyword research;

  • texts and meta tags optimization according to the keywords;

  • adding backlinks with correct “anchors” (with right reference texts).


As we have already noted, hosting sites have a large number of backlinks. How do they receive so many backlinks? This is obvious, that reviews and comments at forums will never help to collect tens thousands of links. Four main methods used in this theme should be picked out. Some of them are typical for other niches and some of them have unusual “boom” exactly in hosting and domain subjects.



  • Link exchange (the proper way)


  • Links buying (the smart way)

  • Getting links through its own affiliate program.


Conversion of search traffic


Let’s look at the comparative analysis of search traffic conversion in various regions (sample of more than 90.000 sales for “domain names” and more than 2000 sales for the “hosting” market):

SEO in the niche of web hosting and domain name registration


In this article we`ll try to generalize our practices in promotion of companies that provide web hosting and domain registration services.


We will talk about such questions:



  • Analysis of hosting / domain name registration market and finding potentially advantageous promotion directions;

  • Features of keywords selection in the conditions of SEO-pressure

  • Definition of promotion strategy

  • Methods of getting links

  • Features of different queries groups conversion depending on geography

  • Typical problems that interfere sites conversion and ways of their solution


Market analysis and competitive researches. Finding potentially advantageous promotion directions


First of all, it is necessary to note that a large traffic in the niche of web hosting is deceptive. If you look at Google AdWords Keyword Tool data you will find out the following picture:



In fact, there are about 400-500 visits from the 8th– 9th place for a query “hosting” per month. It`s necessary to consider this and other points while planning hosting project promotion, because information about a large amount of queries in the Google AdWords Keyword Tool is “stuffed” with endless positions checks. As the market of hosting projects and domain name registrars is extremely competitive, you have a great chance to invest money, work and time in promotion of such queries that are stuffed and do not bring traffic and sales, and after all you can incur losses and even remain disappointed in the search promotion at all. The same can be said about domain name registration.



In fact, there are about 500-600 visits from the 5th – 6th place for a query “domain” per month.


That`s why, in our opinion, it`s better to begin promotion of hosting project or domain name registrar with finding active competitors in the search marketing niche and define their strategies.  For this purpose we can recommend a wonderful tool – SemRush.


So, we need to find competitor sites in our niche, which are actively engaged in the Internet marketing. We just type highly competitive query corresponding to the topic in SemRush and find sites that are ranked well for it:



Now we need to make cleaning, i.e., remove irrelevant sites from the list. In this case, obviously, Wikipedia must be removed from the list. After checking a few queries important for you in the same way, we will receive a “crossed” list of sites. Sites from this list have good rankings for many queries in this subject, so they should be examined primarily.


Lets take a site hostgator.com as an example:



The example shows that, firstly, the number of search queries for which the site “hostgator” is shown has an explicit trend to growth. It reflects the efforts made by the owners of this project to increase its visibility in search engines.



After selection of queries that bring maximum traffic to the project according to SemRush, we get an approximate keywords list which can be used to start promotion.


Making the list of necessary keywords, let’s see whether it is a good idea for us to «meddle into a fight» for these keywords. You should consider such factor, as SEO-pressure, for this purpose.


Features of keywords selection in the conditions of SEO-pressure


You can use different tools to estimate a competition for the selected query. A plug-in for FireFox called SeoQuake is one of convenient free instruments.


Let’s type a relevant query interesting for us, e.g., business hosting:



You can see that some strong sites are present in SERP, and some of them have got from several hundreds thousand to millions of backlinks and even more. The competition in SERPs is about to be really strong, so I would like to repeat: you should select a semantic core very carefully. Moreover, there are sometimes artifacts in SERPs, and learning them is possible only from experience. Let’s take the query “ecommerce hosting”. This query is high frequency in subtopic «hosting for ecommerce sites», it has about 12 thousand searches per month in exact match worldwide:



We can see that the trends of search don’t show any sudden jumps or drops.



The target audience for these queries is in the U.S. and UK – the most creditworthy regions in general. However, traffic for such query from the American Google Top5 – Top6 is about 1-3 persons a day, with natural drops on weekends; it gives us about 40 people a month. A conversion rate for these queries is extremely low. Of course, promotion for this queries is acceptable only with the purposes of improving positioning and brand awareness, but as for sales it isn`t effective.


Let`s take a query “reseller web hosting” which has next data from Google KeyWord Tool worldwide, for comparison:




The query brings twice more traffic from the 4th-5th places having twice smaller amount of searches in exact match according to Google KeyWord Tool! Conversion rate of this query is also quite high. At that, Google Insights give the following data:

The best thing about internet is that money making programs come and go, there is always new under the sun when it comes to promoting your own business. The competition these days is much bigger though, than it used to be in the '90s but, who cares, if we have an effective research tool in hand where we can measure the cost-effectiveness of each tool.

The secret of advertising online is based o the 80:20 Rule. 20 % of the things you do to bring in more revenue are responsible for the 80% of your results. True. Fact.

But obviously not everyone has got enough money to"throw in" in the beginning of their business career for "testing." That's the reason so many people leave PPC advertising, or paid inclusion services, because they cannot afford to lose more money and they are not able to "break even".

There are great tools on the internet though, which are inexpensive and still effective, it is just not always that easy to find them. Today I would like to share some proven methods to get more targeted visitors to your offer page (no one sends visitors to a main page anymore, you send them to the offer right away.)
The following cheap internet marketing tools will help you better your website and promote it thoroughly.

1. Software
Some software are directly written to help you with your internet marketing. They are usually highly effective, automated and cost effective internet marketing tools. They are built to "naturally" generate traffic, submit and include your site in search results, directories, help you choose and trim your keywords, track your site's visitors and manage your potential affiliate links.

Fortunately more and more people create these tools for themselves and either give them away for example for their subscribers, or if you are someone's affiliate, they might give it to you in order to help you bring in more sales.

2. Websites and hosting
You can register a domain name for pennies these days. Although if you don't read the small print, hosting or simply accessing your website can be really costly, so watch out. Always compare prices based on the total cost (domain registration plus hosting fees) to be able to make an informed decision. It is always useful to help a tool choosing a web address, do a keyword research, and buy the domain for more than one year, it will help your website's reputation as well.

The latest trend in hosting websites is simple: find a hosting company, buy the package and install Wordpress.org templates and plug ins. The advantages are: You will be able to create a professional looking site in literally minutes, you have full control on your site, and Wordpress -engine driven websites will crawl much quicker saving you a bundle on Search Engine Optimization.

3. Mailing lists
The best leads you will ever have are the ones you create. Do some research in your chosen niche, use Google to look up the most submitted questions, visit Yahoo Answers, to get an idea of the problems your niche is desperately seeking a solution for. Create a squeeze page which offers a solution to this particular problem and make them opt in to your mailing list in order to get their "fix". Always keep your promise. If you promise someone a 7-day mini-series you have to keep your promise, otherwise later they will never read your ads. This is your chance to build up trust. If you promise them a download, make sure the return URL leads them to the download page, but do even more: send the link again in your first email to them in case they had problems with the download.

4. Private Label Rights
There are some companies that give away or sell (for peanuts) big private label right packages.You can get the whole sales page, graphics and content, to set up your own product website in minutes. If you get Master Resell rights, you will be able to sell the software, e-book or PDF file, in some instances video series as well for the money you choose, or just give it away to your subscribers. You see, you don't have to be a GURU or an expert to position yourself in the market, this is actually the easiest and cheapest way to build your list and for branding yourself.

6. SEO tools
SEO Tools never work miracles, but help your site crawl much quicker than usual. Be aware of the ones that promise you extraordinary results and look too cheap. They never work. Also there are some "too aggressive" SEO companies that will get your website penalized by Google or yahoo, as they will realize that the amount of backlinks and references created in 1 hour could just have been made by a robot. Also make sure that there are always more links pointing to your site than the outgoing links from your site.

Manual SEO can be done, but is time-consuming. You can write and submit articles in article directories, comment on niche blogs or participate in forums. But remember: Rome wasn't built in a day!
