Two Blogging Tips You Can Use Right Now
Monday, May 18th, 2009You hear a lot of professional bloggers talking about ways to increase blog traffic, but the methods they presribe take a lot of time to do.
Many times they’ll tell you to engage other bloggers and make yourself known to them so they’ll comment on your blogs or just become aware of you.They will recommend also that you link to the posts of other bloggers because they know who is linking to them and this raises their awareness of you and your site.
Those are all great tips, but if you want to increase website traffic without having to do a lot of time-consuming work there are some easy things to do that will get you more traffic.
On-page optimization tip-
It has been my experience that it only takes a few quality backlinks to get your domain name highly ranked if you’re using good keywords in your domain name.
You should know that a keyword-rich domain name is one of the most powerful search engine optimization aspects for a site so this should be considered carefully prior to building a new site.
For example, if you own a domain name called bluegreenwidgets dot com, you can rank well for the term bluegreenwidgets with only a few backlinks.
The second most critical on-page optimization factor on your site is the site’s title itself. This is where you should add in a variation of the domain name but use 2 sets of keywords here for the site title.
In the example above, you would give the domain name bluegreenwidgets the site title of Blue Widgets - Green Widgets. In order to achieve maximum benefit from you on page factors, don’t just give your website the same title as the domain name.
That’s a good tip that will get you more traffic and ranking with less effort, just by making a few changes that take 15 seconds to do.
Blog writing tips-
It’s diificullt to write a lot of good content to a lot of sites all the time, especially if you are doing some niche affiliate marketing in some niches you don’t know much about.
The secrets here is to write when you feel compelled to do so and to write with authority and passion.Unless you know something about your niche topic, you obviously can’t write with passion and authority.You can resolve this by getting free website content and learning more about the niche by watching television and reading the newspaper.
If you picked a niche that is related to a very popular and general topic, then you will find plenty of information from newspaper, magazines and telelvision if you become tuned in to this content.Then what you need to do is to write about what’s hot right now and relates to your niche topics.
