Seo stands for search engine optimization. It means to increase
your blog's traffic manually by search engines. Sea is the main problem for
every blogger. There are many ways to drive fake traffic to your blog or site
such as traffic exchange sites for example link collider, traffup,
follow4follow.com, ptc sites, traffic Swam, hit leap and many others but its
not valid for Google AdSense and is harmful for your blog rank, popularity and
index stats. Because Google hates fake or paid traffic. Social networks is also
a good way to
get visitors but
you can‘t get unique visitors frequently through social networks so you have to
work on seo of your blog. You would have read many posts about seo before, in
many websites or blogs and must be driving traffic to your blog but your blog traffic
must be very low and your aim is to get high traffic right? If yes then you are
now at right place. Forget the posts which you have read before this post in
other blogs because these are either very difficult to follow or are fake and
do not work. After reading this post your blog will be 100% sec friendly
without any doubt. If you will follow the below written steps,
guarantee that you
will see your blog much better than before. In this post I am going to tell you
how to generate valid traffic from search engines. To make your blog or site
100% sec optimized you need to do following things:
- Keywords in title of blog:
Describe your blog's content in your
blog's title for example if you have a blog about blogger tips then give it a
title II'blogger tips, tricks, gadgets, widgets and tutorials“ it will help
search engines to show your blog in results if someone search for any of
keyword which you use in title.
- Tags in posts:
When you write a post take care of having
tags in that post. Because search engine will target your tags to ' show
result. Write tags is (h2) font-size. For example you are writing a post about
a publishing network or what else now you have to write keywords about that
publishing network in tags. So that the search engine find your post and show
in results.
- Keywords in post title:
Try
to describe your posts summery in your post title. Its helpful for seo as
someone search on search engine for your written keywords in post title the
search engine will show your blog in results. It is a good way to increase your
blog views.
- Lengthy posts:
Your
post must be of at least 250-300 words. Above 300 words will be better.
- Unique posts:
Your
blog should have a unique content so that visitors have a reason to visit you
blog. It is very important for sec to have unique content so to gain unique
visitors you have to write unique posts.
Another
thing is your post should contain more text than images. And it must be helpful
and meaningful.Your blog should have a category too that is your blog should
focus only at one thing for example, if you have created a software blog than
it should contain only software, if you have created a gaming blog then
it
must contains games similarly if your blog is about fashion, clothes, online
tools, literature and so on
then
you must have relative content to category of your blog.
- User friendly:
As
a wise man said,“ Simpler is better". Your blog should have a friendly
user interface It means no pop-ups, noon-click ads, pop-up like boxes because
these things from striates most of the users. Keep a clear and
Easy
navigation so that your visitors could reach easily to what they are looking
for.
- Meta tags and description:
Write
a meta description of your blog. Write about your blog in below code between
comas. And paste it
below
<head> in template. Also write the keywords of your blog's content in the
second code and past it
below
<head> in your blog template.
(meta
content='write description hereII name='description'l >
<meta
content='write keywords here' name='keywords'/ >
- Submit your blogs URL to search engines:
Increase
you blog traffic by submitting link to search engines. Three big search engines
'Google,8ing,Yahoo"
will accept your link for free. Submit your blog link to other search engines,
you can
find
more search engines on google like Yandex.
If
you want to submit your site to every Google domain at once then submit it here.
- Submit URL to directories:
You
can find a huge list of directories on Google. Submit your link to directories
for free, it is also helpful
to
gain unique traffic.
- Social sharing:
Create
fan pages of your blog on social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, linkedin,
tumblr,
stumbleupon
etc. Share your posts on fan pages to grow more audience and get high page rank
back links.
- Description of each post:
While
writing a post you must have a brief description of the post, you can find it on
right side of blog
post
which will help to increase your seo as this description show up when someone
share your post.
(RSS Feed:
your
blog so if people subscribe to your feed they will have updates about your new
post in their
inbox.
It is also a good way for traffic.
- Join the blogging communities:
Joining
the blogging communities also helps you to increase your blog traffic. The main
source of
problem
is traffic. It becomes a headache to drive more traffic to blog. Joining blog
communities
helps
you to increase traffic in this way that when you join a blog community and make
or add your
blog
with a brief description and tags other bloggers visit your blog as it appears
in recent news or
latest
article, if they like your blog they will visit again which increase your traffic.
Some of the top
blog
communities are Getblogtraffic, blogengage, bizsugar, blokube etc you can find
many other
blog
communities on Google. But I am using Getblogtraffic as it is easy to use and I
prefer to use
Getblogtraffic
for beginners.
- Make searches:
Ask
your friends on social networks to search the keywords for your blog in Google,
Yahoo, Bing or
any
other search engine. More searches will make Google or any other search engine
to index you
blog
in search results and also in auto-complete. Because your blog's keywords will
be trending.
