<p>SEO or search engine optimization is very important for blog sites to increase following and attract new readers. Through SEOs readers can actually know that your blog exists.  Here are some tips that you can utilize to increase readership. Otherwise, it will remain invisible and it will be buried along with the many blog sites out there.</p>
<p>Strategic keyword placement is a common technique, for the reason that search engines such as Google and Yahoo, rank sites based on keywords. Your title must have a primary keyword which you can use in headings or other tags in your content. Ensure that image text descriptions or alternate tags contain keywords that are used in your blog posts.</p>
<p>When you link to other pages or websites use keyword-rich links. Make sure that you have the right keyword count. Use these keywords as often as possible, but avoid overkill. A keyword density of 3% should be safe. Use synonyms for your keywords because search engines give attention to them. It also helps reduce monotony and keep readers interested.</p>
<p>Link your blog to <a href="http://www.blogsearchengine.com/submit-blog/">blog search engines</a> or other websites and even competitors. It is even better if you can get them to link you. It makes search engines think that you have great bearing. Search engine algorithms give websites different ranks and indexes. Google for example has a unique algorithm which detects additional SEO tips and techniques. Sitemaps and robots.txt files are also other common ways to make search engines aware of parts of your site that you want and do not want to be indexed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img id="image157" src="http://www.seoblogging.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/linkbait.thumbnail.jpg" align="left" alt="linkbait.jpg" />I am sure that you have seen this term – or a derivative of it – so many times.  But do you really know what <a href="http://www.blog-tutorials.com/marketing-and-seo/promotion/linkbait-how-much-and-how-often/">link baiting</a> is all about?  To be honest, when I first forayed into the world of blogging, I encountered the term link baiting so many times but I did not really pay that much attention to it.  One reason I had was that term seemed to carry a negative connotation to it.  As such, I didn’t really feel the need to look at it more closely.  After some time, though, I realized that it was too big of a thing (time and again I would encounter it) too ignore.</p>
<p>So what is link baiting, really?  I like how <a href="http://www.problogger.net/archives/2006/09/19/an-introduction-to-linkbaiting/">Darren Rowse explains it:<br />
</a><br />
<em>The term <strong>linkbaiting</strong> is a one that seems to have surfaced over the past 12 or so months and that is used by webmasters to describe a variety of practices &#8211; all of which seek to generate incoming links to a website or blog from other sites. </p>
<p>It is actually a difficult term to be definitive about as it covers a lot of different practices ranging from running awards or competitions, through to writing attacking posts on high profile bloggers in the hope of them biting back and linking to you, through to providing other bloggers or site owners with tools (with embedded links back to your own site) that they can put on their blogs…</em></p>
<p>In short, anything that you do to attract inbound links to your blog (or web site) can actually be considered link baiting, right?  Let us take a closer look at some specific things that you can do to attract those links to your blog.</p>

Getting the correct and unbastardized domain name is such a necessity that companies shell huge amounts of money just to get the correct domain name. Since a domain or even URL is instrumental in getting those needed search results and clicks, the getting the right <a href="http://www.crazydomains.com.au/">domain name</a> has never been so urgent.</p>
<p>But what if you&#8217;re targeting a non-US market? .com domain names wouldn&#8217;t make sense here &#8211; let&#8217;s say you&#8217;re targetting Australian buyers. Of course you&#8217;d want to show up on Google Australia. It won&#8217;t make sense if a site targeted towards an Australian audience shows up on American SERPS and remains invisible to the target market. Of course you can just load the site with keywords related to your target country. Google&#8217;s algorithm is good enough anyway to figure out who your site is targeting and it will show up on the relevant local page. That&#8217;s how great their algorithm is. However, it can be a pain plastering keywords all over your site, right?</p>
<p>Or you can take the easy route: just go for the domain name of the territory you&#8217;re going to target! Google and other search engines take into consideration your site&#8217;s domain name, and in addition to the keywords you&#8217;re optimizing, having a local domain helps a lot. Are you convinced that ccTLDs have a huge impact on SEO or is it just a huge joke? Tell us more about it in the comments!</p>

Maybe you have even registered it and pointed your WordPress or Blogger blog to publish to that domain.  Does this mean that you can sit pretty and expect your search engine ranking to go up?  Does it mean that you can expect your daily visits to shoot up?</p>
<p><strong>Definitely not.</strong></p>
<p>There are so many aspects to SEO for blogs.  Just because you have taken one step does not mean that you do not have to do anything else.  The fact is that <a href="http://blog.smartpagerank.com/2008/08/25/seo-not-working-for-you/">SEO is a continuous process</a>.  You have to check the different aspects and continue to work on them in order to achieve your goal. </p>
<p>One thing that you have to put on the top of your priority list is your blog content.  At the very beginning of your endeavors with your blog, you should have made it clear in your mind what you want to write about, what you want to offer your readers.  Still, it doesn’t stop there.  You have to continue paying attention to the kind of content that you are going to place in your blog.</p>
<p>Think about it.  You have the freedom to write practically anything in your blog.  But if your aim is to attract readers and to keep them coming back, you have to continue to present new content that would be of interest for them.  Otherwise, your best efforts in SEO will not really mean much.  Without great content, people might visit your blog once, even twice, but never come back.</p>

<p>On the other hand if you do not make use of the features of your web hosting service to nicety then you would find it extremely difficult to promote your website.  Choosing web design is one of the important factors involved in the promotion of a website.  If your web design is good then more and more visitors would pour into it.  You will have to take the help of a web design expert to see to it that you get the aspect of designing your website right.  </p>
<p>It is not a bad idea to get into <a href="http://www.designcontest.com/">web design contest</a> to improve the design of your website.  By entering into a web design contest you would be in a position to try various methods of web design with the help of an expert or a freelancer.  A dull website that lacks in attractive web design does not normally attract more visitors.  </p>
<p>It is said that web design and web development are the two eyes of any website for that matter.  While web development will take care of the aspect of subject matter of the website, web design will take care of the aspect of the layout of the website.  It is mandatory that the layout of the website should be attractive if it has to pull visitors towards it.  </p>

This kind of domain name takes advantage of the existing extensions.  Is this a good way to create a domain name?  I think that it could be – if you can come up with a word (or words) that makes sense and that is (are) related to your blog content.  Some of the more popular <a href="http://www.crazydomains.com.au">domain names</a> making use of this technique:</p>
<p><strong>sear.ch<br />
b.uy<br />
tel.ly<br />
beach.es<br />
justcurio.us<br />
designm.ag<br />
podca.st<br />
foot.ie</strong></p>
<p>Why not challenge yourself to see if you can come up with a suitable domain name?</p>
<p>Another way by which you can come up with a creative domain name is <strong>using a slogan</strong>.  Some experts do not suggest using this method unless your slogan is already well known.  Think Adidas – impossibleisnothing.com.  Then there is justdoit.com for Nike.  Obviously, this method works perfectly if your slogan is catchy.</p>
<p>Now how about <strong>making up your own word</strong>?  This is where creativity really comes into play.  Anyone can make up a word or a phrase.  Making that word or phrase stick in the minds of people is another thing.  It works, though.  Think Flickr and Digg.  Even if these words do not mean anything, the sites have become as big as can be.</p>
<p>The bottom line is this: creativity is very powerful in coming up with domain names that people will remember.  That is only one part, though. Even if you have the most creative domain name in the world, it will not mean anything if you do not have <a href="http://www.blog-tutorials.com/blog-tutorial/is-good-writing-relative/">great content</a> to offer and if you do not practice other SEO techniques.  Still, with a great domain name, you are one step ahead!</p>
