How to Optimize Your Blog for Search Engines

2011-05-24T03:56:00.000-07:00

Every day Search Engines like Google send many millions of web users to websites in their index. While there are plenty of Web 2.0 web indexing services around that are increasing in popularity – the fact is that search engines like Google, Yahoo and MSN are still the biggest source of traffic to websites on the web.

If you are in wordpress, you don’t even want to worry about SEO. But if in blogger, you have a lot to worry. Anyway, now there are different hacks to optimize SEO for blogger blogs too. You can easily optimize your blogger blog by following these simple steps:-

Add meta tags to blogger:- Adding meta tags is very important if you want to get some good traffic from search engines like Google, yahoo, msn, etc. especially the meta description part is the most important one. Meta tags are the tags which describe your site and tell the search engines what your site is all about. Meta tags allow search engines to index your web pages more accurately. In other words, Meta tags communicate with the search engines and tell more information about your site and make your WebPages index correctly and accurately.

Add a fav-icon to your blogger blog:- The favicon is the little logo in the address bar next to your url where you normally see the Microsoft logo. When people look at their bookmarks (favorites list) they will be drawn to your web page because of the beautiful logo next to your bookmark. When you have a favicon installed, your visitors will see your favicon icon. It's a great way to help your site stand out amongst many bookmarks.

Use Quality Content in your post:- In my opinion “Content is King”. A website's content, even more so than its products, is what attracts visitors. Quality means that the content should be well written and be free from those embarrassing typos that make visitors wonder if your website really knows what it's talking about. On the other hand, Quality means that your website should be updated regularly with new content added. A visitor may return to an informational article once, or even two or three times, but if your website's content never changes, eventually, there will be no reason for him to return.

Notify Relevant Bloggers of your content:- If you write a quality post on a topic that you know will interest another blogger that it might be worth shooting them a short and polite email letting them know of your post. Don’t be offended if they don’t link up, but you might just find that they do and that in addition to the direct traffic that the link generates that it helps build your own page rank in the search engines.

On Page Optimization Tips

2011-05-18T23:32:00.000-07:00

On Page Optimization is the most important and complex part of search engine optimization. If you want the bots to find you more easily then I recommend you follow these on page SEO tips. They are as follows:-

Meta Tag Optimization:

The following is a partial list of metadata elements that may be used in the overall site structuring, organization, and search engine marketing strategy.

META Description Tag-
Some search engines will index the META Description Tag found in the <head></head> section of your web pages.

META Keywords Tag-
The META Keywords Tag is where you list keywords and keyword phrases that you've targeted for that specific page.

META Language Tag-

In HTML elements, the language attribute specifies the natural language. This document is mostly concerned with how to specify the primary language(s) (there could be more than one) and the base language (there is only one) in HTML documents.

META Link Relationship Tag-
It is helpful for search results to reference the beginning of the collection of documents in addition to the page hit by the search. You may help search engines by using the link element with rel="start" along with the title attribute.

rel="nofollow" - Link Relationship Attribute
By adding rel="nofollow" to a hyperlink, a page indicates that the destination of that hyperlink SHOULD NOT be afforded any additional weight or ranking by user agents which perform link analysis upon web pages (e.g. search engines).

Robots META Tag:

The Robots META Tag is meant to provide users who cannot upload or control the /robots.txt file at their websites, with a last chance to keep their content out of search engine indexes and services.

Googlebot Robots META Tag
The Robots META Tag for Googlebot is meant to provide users who cannot upload or control the /robots.txt file at their websites, with a last chance to keep their content out of Google's indexes and services.

MSNBot Robots META Tag
The Robots META Tag for MSNBot is meant to provide users who cannot upload or control the /robots.txt file at their websites, with a last chance to keep their content out of MSN's indexes and services.

Use Relevant Keywords for the Domain Name:

For SEO, the blog’s name and domain name should be the main keyword phrase of your blog, or closely related to it. If you’re starting a new blog, use a little time to come up with good name for the blog, with good keywords or a phrase, and register a domain with those keywords.

Pay Attention to the Anchor Text in Your Links:

Add links to your own posts and pages with relevant keywords and phrases. Alternate the phrases a bit, for example using different variations like singular and plural form. The links are more important to the “receiving” end, whether the link is external or internal, but the links and anchor texts are important for the page they are in as well. Because of this, it is good to link out to other blogs and your other posts from every post you write, using optimized anchor texts.

Keyword Density :

8% is excellent and doesn’t seem spammy, if you have a 500 word article, then 40 of those words should have variances of the search term you are targeting, if this seems excessive, lower the keyword density down to 5% and you will only need to add 25 variances/instances of your keyword.

Google has a good article on Google information for webmasters that is very imformative if you are considering Getting a SEO Company to so work on your website.

· Title & Meta Description Tag:
Construction of your title tag is one of the most important things you need to do. Each page should have a different title with 2 or 3 of your keyword phrases at the beginning. When search engine results are displayed the title is the first thing people see.
Below the title is a description which will be either be taken from your meta name description content="Description phrase" or from the first sentence on at page. You description should also have 2 or 3 of your keyword phrases at the beginning as so should your first sentence. You should have a different title, description and first sentence on each page. You many also what to try shorter titles with only one keyword or keyword phrase as this will raise you keyword relevance. Also you can consider putting your domain name at the very end of the title.

· Meta Keywords Tag:
The meta keywords tag is not as relevant as it used to be and some say Google doesn't ever look at it anymore, but put it in anyway. It is as follows, <meta name="keywords" content="keywords,go,here" /> and put in it all your keywords and keyword phrases. This tag should be different for each page.

· Author & Robots Tags:
The Author Tag should contain the name of the company that owns the site. This tag will help you get a #1 position for your company's name.
<meta name="author" content="Solutions with Service" />
Use a generic Robots Tag on all pages that you want indexed. This instructs the robots to crawl the page. The following is the generic robots tag.
<meta name="robots" content="index, follow" />

· Quality Content:
Quality content will bring people back and as people always want to tell others about a good thing it will get you forward links from other sites. Your content should be written with your keyword phrases in mind

· Quantity Content:
The more the better. Just remember your content will need to be both quantity and quality.

· Changing Content:
You can do this by hand or with a script. For example you can have a php script that draws five paragraphs from a pool of twenty paragraphs when the content is different each time the php page is accessed.

· Avoid Dynamic URLs:
Are you pages via php, asp, or cf? Some search engines may have a problem indexing them. Create static pages whenever possible. Avoid symbols in your URLs like the "?" that you will often find in php, asp or cf pages.
Static pages are the best but if you have a db driven site, make sure the menu and site map like go to inventory.cfm not inventory.cfm?vn=0 .

· Frames:
Many search engines can't follow frame links. Make sure you provide an alternative method for the search engines to enter and index your site. For more information read Search Engines and Frames.

· Site Map:
A good menu system is really a site map. A well constructed menu system that is on each page and contains a link to very page on the website is all you need.

· Site Themes:
All of the top 3 search engines look for site themes or a common topic when they crawl a website. If your site is about one specific topic you will rank better than if you have more than one theme or topic on your site. By using similar keyword phrases in each page the search engines will detect a theme this will be to your advantage.

· Site Design:
You may think, what does site design have to with search engine optimization. Well if your website has a bad color scheme that is hard to read, is not organized, is a cheesy looking site, then all your site optimization has been a waste of time. Make your site attractive to the viewer, make things easy to find, have you graphic header and menu bar the same place on each page.
These things will keep your visitors on the site and bring them back. A well optimized site with a high search engine results position that is ugly and is hard find information on, will not keep the visitors your optimization has brought to the site.
Use W3C Link Checker to make sure all your page links are good. If you have broken links on your site this can effect the ranking you are given.
Put a proper doctype on each page. If you don't have a proper doctype on each page Internet Exployer will go into quirks mode and display it different.
Use The W3C Markup Validate Service to verify that your pages are Validate HTML or XHTML code. The W3C validation will verify that your HTML or XHTML is not broken. This validation show you any broken code that could cause your webpages from displaying properly in all the different browsers and browser versions.

· Separate Content & Presentation:
Put all your presentation code into Cascading Styles Sheets (CSS). This separates the presentation from the content and makes your html files up to 50% smaller. It is reported that the search engine bots prefer this and the more content you have compared to presentation in your file, the better you get rated. Read why tables for markup are stupid for an overview.

· Robots.txt File:
While this file is not really required it should be included so that the search engine bots don't get 404 errors when they look for it. Just include the following 2 lines and drop it in the root.
