SEO Tips For Blogs
It will take a while to get a decent amount of traffic from the search engines. The search engines do not like NEW websites. They like more established sites that have a lot of people linking to them, hence proving that they are reputable. This is why getting links from other bloggers, directories, other web sites that have a good reputation in the search engines’ eyes is very important. As your blog begins to grow by having more pages and more links the search engines will begin to send you more and more traffic. This is a good thing!! But, as I mentioned earlier, they are very wary of new websites – so time will be your ally when it comes to the search engines.>>>>
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is
an science/art (depending on who you ask) that focuses on getting your website
or blog to the top of the search engine listings. Being at the top of Google’s
results for any decent keywords can be a great source of traffic and the
greatest part about it is that it is FREE
TRAFFIC!!!
I am not going to get deep into SEO
much here, there are far more thorough books about it but as your blog
grows you should try to learn more about it, as it will only help you by
knowing more. Just like most of the things you will learn while blogging, you
don’t need to be an expert at it – just having a working knowledge will provide
great results.
The thing to remember about the
search engines (especially Google) is that they are trying to create a perfect
system where any searcher can find exactly what they want. Google wants to
display the most relevant websites to their searchers. They will never have a
perfect system, but they probably won’t stop trying. If you can keep this in
mind, it will be very helpful when you are trying to optimize your blog. Don’t
waste your time trying to trick them, they will figure it out and will punish
you for it. Just focus on making it very clear to them what your site is all
about and writing great content for your reader and the rest will take care of
itself.
So, let’s get to some SEO. These are some of the most important (in my opinion) pieces of SEO
that every beginner should know. If you do these right,
you will be much better off than most people who don’t know anything about SEO.

You must lead sufficient contents or posts on every page and
category. In total, you should have 15-30 blog posts on your whole blog. This
is not an official declaration. But, I recommend everybody to at least have it.
So, you should have at least 3-4 posts in every category, tag and page. Google
Adsense told that we must have sufficient contents in every single web page.
So, we should add contents in all pages and categories. There shouldn’t be any
blank page without any content. And these posts have to pass the minimum length
of 500-600 words as it is the best blog post length. The more you increase the
length, the more you go towards to get Google Adsense approval
