If you are one of them, i advise you to come out of the dreams. If success was so easy on internet, everybody on internet would have been a millionaire. There is no shortcut to success, but yes, i can guarantee you that success on internet is quite satisfying.

Google, Yahoo, Facebook, Twitter, MSN are all successful web companies. Most people think that there is not much cost involved in running a web company. You also might have heard it

“Register a domain name, buy a Hosting server,  Bring Traffic and become a millionaire”.

While its quite true but certainly not as easy as it sounds.  Have you ever wondered how many servers big web companies like  Google, yahoo, godaddy,  facebook etc.  own and how much is the cost involved in maintaining theses servers.  I was just wondering to know about the infrastructure of these companies. What i found was quite surprising.

Google owns around 450,000 servers , Yahoo owns at least 250,000 servers,  Facebook owns around 50,000 servers. While these numbers are quite stunning,  i want to make it clear that these information’s are very old.  Actual numbers of servers may be much more than this. If we just check the dedicated servers India page, and calculate the minimum monthly cost for Google servers it would be around $ 45 million per month with very basic servers.

What i want to say that with huge traffic, huge costs are also involved. So don’t think that you can be successful just with huge traffic.  A proper revenue model and good business plan is required to become successful. So, anything you start you should have a rock solid business plan behind that to become successful on internet.

Diwali is one of the major festivals of India but still it does not enjoy the importance which Christmas or other western festivals enjoys. WHY? May be because it has not been internationalized. I read a great post about the significance of diwali here. You can read it too and hope you like it.

Bye guys, Its time to blast some crackers. HAPPY DIWALI TO YOU.

1. Is SEO a necessary evil.

SEO is the force behind a company’s online success. Internet marketing is now a billion dollar industry and everyone is slowly but surely accepting this. Even top companies in India and the world are now keeping huge budgets for internet marketing. There is so much buzz going about internet marketing. People know that SEO can bring them new prospects for their products and services. But what’s the scope of SEO’s in India in comparison to the rest of the world.

It is very sad to write about it but its quite true. In India SEO’s are treated as data entry personnel. Why i said this will be quite clear if you check the following job requirement for SEO,which i have taken from leading job portals of India. Lets check it out the what skill do big companies need in an seo?

These are the  requirements of a senior level SEO in many big companies in India. But i think even data entry operators will be able to do this if guided appropriately, then why you need a SEO. Companies in India still do not know the power of an SEO and what talent should they possess.  SEO is a marketing professional which markets you brand online. It is necessary to understand what a SEO can do and what skills a SEO should have.

SEO Services is not a snake oil business and it requires a huge lot of strategy and hard work to promote a brand online. Inappropriate understanding of SEO has lowered the glory of SEO. Search Engine Optimization is often considered as a collection of few tactics, which when done boosts rankings . I personally feel that even SEO should understand that SEO is not about forums posting, spamming emails with link requests and just building a link resource page on website. Only then they can get their glory back.

Inappropriate understanding of SEO has increased spamming, lowered the value of quality content on web and also lowered the concept of usuability and adding value to the web.

I see many bloggers and copywriters who are doing a great work by sharing their day to day experiances with the internet users. I wonder how they manage to devote so much time for writing blog posts. Either they only blog or they are experts in managing their time schedule. Managing and Owning blog is not as simple as it sounds. It takes a whole lot of time to write a single unique post.

It may sound funny but in last six months i only did 7 posts to my blogs and that also were lost when i changed my previous host. So, after updating my blog i finally decided that from now onwards i will regularly post to my blog without any interruption. I will try to share the internet secrets and experiances with my users through this blog.

But this is for sure that you will find this blog informative and entertaining.

Thanks
