Blog Posting For SEO

   Simple Blogging SEO Tips 

Today we're posting another article on search engine optimization. Writing more about seo will be a good way of tackling some of the many ways to get a good ranking on search engines.

To get the needed targeted traffic in search engines such as Google, you need your blog, and your post to prominently show in the top ten search engine results. There are also tools to help optimize the keywords used in your post. There's also software to determine the rank. Every keyword in key phrases has to be used effectively. Optimization in the titles and first paragraph of the post help determine how to get a high ranking. If you're on the WordPress platform, check the plugins that are available for SEO optimization. Remember, too many plugins will slow your site down. Pick one plugin to start and learn to use it well.

There are two factors affecting search engine ranking of a blog, on-page and off-page optimization. The former means that you have to make use of high ranking keywords to be used on your post (meaning putting it in the title or the first paragraph of the text) and off-page optimization which is getting quality backlinks pointing to your blog and its pages.

To on-page optimize your blog, as what I stated in my earlier posts:

* Keywords – it is what the search engine look for in your title tag and the content of your post when someone type it in the search engine. When you search on a particular phrase, the title or the content of the web page with the exact phrase you have searched for will be the first to be shown on search engine results.

* On page relevancy – since Google has tweaked its algorithms on title tags, it now requires that your page/posts should have relevance to your title in a particular keyword you choose. It simply means that your title has a particular keyword that is being searched and some of it is also found in your posts.

For off-page optimization:

* Get backlinks – link-exchange and reciprocal links work and it's great to have a lot of them, but you really want the links from experts in the same niche as your blog. The bigger the expert, the better.  

It means that many sites link to your blog with a particular keyword your blog page located on your title post and on the body post itself your blog page will show higher on search engine results.

Let us say your blog post is about niche fishing, and there are links pointing to your page and the anchor text niche fishing. Your page will be put on the top list of the search engine when someone looks for the term. But don't jump on creating links like this yet. You need the content of your article and the keywords in it to match the title you have chosen. That way, your search engine will not be confused when it looks for a reader for you. Everything's right there and the reader will be in the right place and having a good time reading your article or blog. 

A search engine looks at the thousands of links going to blogs. It's better to work on a few really good links than to get a bunch of links that do not relate to your niche or topic.

* Get links with the right anchor text (ex. your article topic). When pointing to your post from other sites, be sure you're referring to ant article that is relevant to your topic. Links should come from a variety of locations. Look for forums with different ip addresses and social networking sites that are not by just one website owner or platform. Add value to the comment section by answering questions.

* Do not overuse the keyword or same anchor text in your link building effort. Just one keyword pointing to your blog post will trigger a search engine.

* Creating links to your blog should be done moderately. At least a few high quality links a day will be enough in order for your blog post to stay in the rankings.

Getting backlinks is easy but requires a lot of effort. You can manually submit your own created articles or rehash content from private label articles to article directories.

Here are some of the article directories that you can submit your articles:

Ezinearticles.com

Isnare.com

Tumblr.com 

Or you can use any of a variety of article submission platforms depending on your niche. You can use them for submitting your articles to directories either manually or automatically. Some platforms and softwares allow your posts or articles to be scheduled. That way you can stay active all the time without feeling like you're attached to a ball and chain.

If you have problems creating content, I suggest you get over to Fiverr or other writer sites.  You can also find great ideas in free article sites, plr content articles. Rewrite it using an Article Content Spinner or other article rewriting softwares to avoid a duplicate content issue.

Join forums. Look for forums that allow you to include a link to your article that supports the topic of discussion. Use the title of your blog and its link as the lead back to your blog or web page. Be active in forums and post or reply to posts. Read the rules however in posting so that you will not get banned. Try not to spam the readers. It's best to offer whatever value that you can.

Minor in method but highly popular is leaving comments on other blogs. It's one of the best free ways to get people back to your site and reading your blog. You can use as your username your blog title in posting comments. When you use one of your main keywords in your comment, you will be sure that you are attracting the right readers. However, you should be posting comments that are fitted on the posts or else your comments will be considered spam by the blog owner.

That's my simple tips in optimizing your blog using search engine optimization. Watch out for more tips on making money blogging.
