The best thing about a blog must be that they have the power to attract traffic from Search Engines which come Naturally.
Blogs like wordpress already are well structured and every link are setup to link back to the main page.
Now, You should submit your sites to directories, I have discussed about directories before !
Directories are a great source of generating one way links.
These are 5 Blog tips for increasing Search Engine traffic to your blog.
1) Keyword Choices
It is upto you,
a) Target a keyword which gets very very high traffic and ranking low in the SERP’s and getting little traffic.
OR
b) Target a moderate keyword with moderate traffic and rank high on the SERP’s and get nice traffic :)
This traffic might not bring you many many hits but they will bring you huge profits.
I mean to say, this traffic can bring you some buyers of your affiliate products where as the other traffic won’t !
The best thing about your blog is that they can get indexed and show up so well that you can get indexed for even any 4 phrases of the keywords which match your industry.
2) Keyword Placement
You can repeat the keywords which you want to target as many times in your posts.
They can be done by putting them on your Titles of the Posts, The Category Titles, URL Titles (Permalink) or even on the technorati tags which are really helpful.
3) Posting Timely
Instead of posting every 15 minutes or even pining your posts after every 15 minutes, It is better that you post around 3-4 Times in a day.
Check your web stats on Statcounter, Wordpress Wassup plugin or Google Analytics or any other web stat for checking that if you are getting spidered weekly or monthly, You can increase spider visits by blogging on the anniversary time of the spider visit, Keep it doing regularly, In no time it will become predictable that when the next spider comes.
4) Blog Feed
Use your site feed in forums as they will help you promote your blog.
The feed title will get indexed and increase a backlink, all those backlinks will help to get a better rank in the SERP’s which will be observed by the spiders.
The effect would be better when once you are there and skewing your blog to the Search Engine Friendly Side.
5) Frequent Updates
The more you post, the more the spiders food increases, This might result that the spider will crawl less and the content keep building, Which won’t help !
For example, I have a blog and I post frequently and get spidered regularly, and I do not post for one week and the spider doesn’t crawl gives us a better result of getting indexed and our blog will look better in Google and other SE’s SERP’s.
This will help you to get a better rank on your next product/content you post !
So this means that you should do less blog posts and earn great Google and Yahoo etc.
