Today's 12 Days of Christmas post comes from Desiree Garcia, with MADD of Orange County. Desiree is one of the strongest and coolest girls we know, we are blessed to have met her :)

We are not all mothers, and we are not all victims. We are grandparents, fathers, brothers, sisters, children, relatives and friends. We are men and women, young and old. Mothers Against Drunk Driving mission is to stop drunk driving, support the victims of this violent crime, and prevent underage drinking. MADD was founded in California in 1980 and has been serving Orange County since 1981.

MADD is not a crusade against alcohol consumption. The focus of MADD is to look for effective solutions to impaired driving and underage drinking, to provide free support services to individuals, families and friends whose lives have been impacted by impaired drivers. Unlike cancer and other terrible diseases, MADD is not looking for a cure for under the influence driving...we already have one. Its you.

How can you support MADD Orange County?

1. Donate - It is the end of the year and we always encourage donations in lieu of a Holiday gift. Givt the gift that saves lives. Donation questions? Contact Desiree Garcia at desiree.garcia@madd.org

Register today!
   
4. Volunteer - Volunteers are the heart and soul of MADD. Without them, MADD would have no one to stand beside an injured survivor in court; offer a hug to a grieving family member; educate a school child that alcohol is a drug; or answer the question from a concerned citizen, "What can be done to stop the deaths and grievous injuries on our highways?" Every volunteer job at MADD Orange County is important! From supporting the office staff in the day-to-day implementation of programs to the handing out of information at booths to comforting the victims of alcohol related crashes. There are lots of things to choose from. Contact Mary Beth Griffin at marybeth.griffin@madd.org for more info.

Today's 12 days of Christmas post is dedicated to Orangewood Children's Foundation, and all they do for the foster youth of Orange County. Many of you may not this, know but our own CFO was a foster youth and spent time at Orangewood, so this foundation is very close to our hearts :)

Orangewood has great programs designed to help foster kids get educated, obtain scholarships, live independently, and transition into the community successfully. Its not easy when you don't have your family to help, but its nice that this shelter comes to the rescue for so many of our youth.

How can YOU show support for Orange County's foster kids?

Its easy!!!

1. Friend Orangewood on Facebook or follow them on Twitter. Share their stuff!!
2. Volunteer your time. There are various community events throughout the year, or you could even be a mentor!
3. Round up the company troops, and do a matching gift. A matching gift is great because the company matches the contribution of its employees. What a wonderful way for you to all do good together.
   

We'd like to just take a moment to say THANKS to Orangewood Foundation for supporting our local foster kids. With the right support, they will all grow up to be smart, successful, CEO's & mentors too :)

Link Exchange - Trading Links With Relevant Sites for Resources Exchange

If you haven't done so already, please be sure you understand the purpose behind linking by reading our introduction to links at Linking: What You Need To Know before moving forward...

---

To quickly recap, linking is a process by which another website places a link to your website somewhere on one of their pages. More often than not, the website linking to yours will ask that you return the favor by placing a link to that website on one of your pages. This type of link exchange is called "reciprocal linking" and is the most common form of linking seen in search engine optimization.

After you've downloaded the Google Toolbar (its free!), you may move forward with the reciprocal linking process...

This tool bar allows its users to view the page rank a particular website has received from Google. A higher page rank indicates that a website is more popular than another which is what you want to be sure of when asking another site to reciprocate links. Once installed find websites that you're interested in trading links with.

When you arrive at a website that you'd like to exchange links with be sure to look near the top of your browser for the websites page rank (see above). As a rule of thumb, you generally do not want to exchange links with websites that have a lower page rank, as they are not very popular websites. Linking with site that have low page rankings does little for your website. Remember....quality is more important that quantity.

That being said, a relevant link is better than NO link as long as you aren't jeopardizing the integrity of your own site with a link back.

Its as simple as this...

1. Are you willing to send people from your site to theirs as a referral?
2. Is this a valuable site to be on? Have integrity here!
   
   Once you've found a website with enough RELEVANCE, you're ready to begin the exchange process. You'll want to locate one of several different types of buttons on this website.
   
   Links or buttons that read "add you're website", "advertise with us", "link exchange", "link affiliates", or even "link partners" can usually be found somewhere on a websites homepage or main navigation bar. Clicking on these links will usually provide you with either a direct means of contact (email), or a form that will ask for several pieces of information.
   
   At this point you have two choices. One, you may choose to fill out this form and begin the linking process, or two, you may send us a link to this website so that we may handle the process for you.
   
   Additionally if you are apprehensive about linking with a particular site for any reason it's best to contact us first. Should you decide to fill out the form you may be unsure of what it's asking for. If that's the case refer to the terms below for more information on how to obtain and provide that site with the information it's asking for. The form may look like this:

---

Thank you for your interest in link exchange! Please fill in the requested information.

Name:


Email:


Phone:


Business Name:


Website Title:


URL:


Reciprocal Link URL:


Keywords:


Description:

Form Fields
When looking over or attempting to fill out a form such as this, there are some individuals who may not understand what the form is asking for or how to go about obtaining such information. The following terms will help you better understand what is being asked for and how to get it.

Name: Forms normally ask for a name so that the person who receives the completed form will be able to identify you. When asking another website to reciprocate links the name field is almost always a mandatory field.

How to Obtain: We all know our names!

Email: Reciprocal linking forms always ask for an email address. Your email address not only allows the site your sending information to, to contact you and let you know that a link to your site has been added but sometimes appears on the website along with your company information as well. This provides a sites visitors with a way to contact you directly. We recommend using a business or site related email address when filling out a form such as this.

How to Obtain: Choose an email address that you check regularly and have at it!

Phone: Reciprocal linking forms ask for phone numbers for the same reason they ask for an email address...to allow for the reciprocating website and their visitors to contact you. Again we recommend that you use a business number.

How to Obtain: Select a phone number that will be answered by your business. Personal numbers not only cost you privacy but its best to keep a professional appearance.

Business Name: When a website places a link to your website on theirs, the name of your business is often turned into that link. Additionally who advertises their business without mentioning the name of their business?

How to Obtain: Use either the name of your business or website.

Website Title: The title of your website is the information that tells both visitors and search engines what your website is all about. Site that reciprocate links with you will often use this information to describe your business and the link back to your website.

How to Obtain: Go to your homepage. Once the page has loaded hold the Ctrl key on your keyboard down. While holding this key down press "U" (in Firefox). This will bring up a notepad that displays the source code that makes up your website. With the notepad open select the Ctrl key on your keyboard. While holding this key down press "F" and search for "title"

You'll need to copy only the information in between the two title tags and then paste that into the form field named "website title." A tag open and closes with and .

URL: When a form asks for a URL it's asking for your web address. This is always mandatory as well when filling out a linking form. The site you're exchanging links with will need this information to link back to your website.

How to Obtain: Your business, your web address, you know it!

Reciprocal Link URL: When a form asks you for this information it's asking you where it can find a link to itself on your website. Always add the other sites information to your site before filling out these forms as most will check your site for a link back before sending your information to the other website.

How to Obtain: Open your website, specifically the page that contains links to those with whom you reciprocate with. Once there right click on the page and select either "properties" or "view page info". Selecting either of these will present you with the web address of that page which you can then copy and paste into the form field.

Keywords: The keywords reciprocal linking forms ask for can be found within your "meta" information. These keywords help the search engines determine what kind of content your website contains. These are of the utmost importance and should be included anytime a form asks for them.

How to Obtain: Go to your homepage. Once the page has loaded hold the Ctrl key on your keyboard down. While holding this key down press "U". This will bring up a notepad that displays the source code that makes up your website. With the notepad open select the Ctrl key on your keyboard. While holding this key down press "F" and search for "keywords."

You'll need to copy only the information in between the two title tags and then paste that into the form field named "website title."

Description: The description within your meta tags much like your keywords helps search engines and readers determine what your website is all about. Descriptions however are not comprised of separated words but rather coherent sentences that describe your business and your site.

How to Obtain: Go to your homepage. Once the page has loaded hold the Ctrl key on your keyboard down. While holding this key down press "U". This will bring up a notepad that displays the source code that makes up your website. This will bring up a notepad that displays the source code that makes up your website. With the notepad open select the Ctrl key on your keyboard. While holding this key down press "F" and search for "description."

You'll need to copy only the information that appears after the "content=" and then paste that into the form field named "description".

• After you've filled out the form or emailed your description, title, and keywords to the site you'd like to reciprocate with, you need to keep an eye out for their response. Any sites that do not respond or respond with a "no thank you" should be removed from your website at the first available opportunity. Leaving such links to other websites in place benefits only those sites that you're linking to which is counterproductive in linking strategies.

• You'll want to be aware that some sites may actually provide interested parties with html coding that needs to be places on your linking page. When this scenario arises simply email us the code and we'll add it to your website. Once we've added it to your links page you can contact the website you're interested in linking with and let them know you've already added them to your site.
  

There will be some rare cases where a website wants to exchange links with you but is unsure of how to make additions to their website. If and when this scenario arises, you may request that they either speak with their site manager, or ask for direct access to their website so that Cal Coast Web Design can make the additions for them. Anytime this scenario occurs you will be charged for the additions however.

---

Should you have any questions regarding reciprocal linking or links in general please contact us so that we can help!

1. Donate an item to the silent auction or bake sale
2. Set up YOUR retail table this Saturday, and donate a percentage of proceeds.

12 Days of Christmas - World AIDS Day

This year we are taking our 12 days of Christmas campaign around the world, to feature and support non-profits and worthy causes. Its been a hard year for many businesses, and those who need our help the most tend to get ignored during a trying economy. We'd like to see that CHANGE! So... we will be the change we want to see in the world by featuring these causes through our 12 Days of Christmas blogs this year ;)

Today is World AIDS day. Although we have made leaps and bounds progress on Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) in the last decade, we still have so far to go. Especially in Africa and other 3rd world countries, where the disease is commonly spread from mother to child. Did you know over 2 million children under the age of 15 have HIV? Its so sad :(

How you can you support the AIDS cause?

Easily, in a few ways:

1. Get tested. Show the world its no big whup. Tell your friends you've been tested in hopes they will follow your example!

2. Promote awareness. You can do that by going to http://www.aids.gov/ and 'friending', 'following', or 'subscribing' to the social network of your preference. Then, share about it to show you care about it.

3. Donate. There are a ton of charities out there to support AIDS awareness and research! One of our favorites is WorldVision, because they focus on helping and teaching the children.

However you choose to support the AIDS cause, we thank you for taking the time to care and share. We are so thankful for all the non-profits and charities out there who tirelessly work on the cause, we have so much knowledge and progress due to your efforts - THANK YOU!

7. Create the html code, which you can see on Chadi Bazzi's excellent video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qkTDSZg8VY
8. Headlines are crucial! Good Craigslist headlines with proven success: 'search for a home just like an agent for free'. (NEVER include the # of beds or a dollar amount or a specific city. You're trying to generate a lead, not give away the cow right now.) Here are some other winners: 'find out why all countyname homebuyers are coming here first'. 'at least one bargain deal can be found here each day'. 'just sold for over asking price'. 'why is everyone using this new homesearch tool? You won't believe its free!'
9. Test & tweek. Craigslistadtracker.com will help you. Insert the code into html as in step 7. Aim for your ads to get 100 clicks a day.
10. Get a stealth website or video with a compelling message. (You know, a courteousy service, nooooo branding. Settle that ego for a sec!)

Rules for Posting

1. Never post more than 3 ads per day from a single account.
2. Every time you go from one acct to another, clear your cookies!!! Or use a different browser. LOL.
3. Know the heavy traffic times! (btw 3-9pm) Post only in the afternoon!!!
