There are lots of ways out there to generate links back to your website. Some of them are spammy or blackhat/grayhat type methods such as blog comment spamming, forum spamming, blasting your links all over Twitter or maybe submitting a few hundred bookmarks to various social bookmarking sites.

read moreDay 5 of 31DBBB: On Second Thought…
It’s been approximately 35 days since I started my series on 31 Days to Build a Better Blog and I’m only up to day 5, lol. I began this series of posts as a way to let people follow along with me as I went through 31DBBB (a great ebook from Darren Rowse of Problogger) and hopefully engage in some discussions along the way about the tasks involved. This series has been problematic though. I mentioned back on day 2 that I didn’t want to cross the line into giving away Darren’s information to everyone for free. It’s a great book and very inexpensive so cost shouldn’t be a barrier for people picking up a copy. However, it’s getting more and more apparent that I just can’t continue this series without giving Darren’s work away for free, so I’m choosing to end it now. I’ll still continue on through the course because I think it’s very worthwhile but I just don’t feel right about putting the details of the course here on my blog. If you’ve been following along, I hope you’ll continue on through the course. If you haven’t yet picked up a copy of 31DBBB, be sure and grab one because it’s packed full of some great information on growing your blog. Oh yeah…and it’s cheap too!

read moreOptimizing Title Tags to Increase Traffic
If your website is ranking well for various keyword phrases but you don’t seem to be getting your expected share of traffic, you might want to take a look at your page title tags. In case you’re wondering, the title tag is not the title of your post. It is the text that appears in the title bar or tab area of your browser window. If you use the All in one SEO plugin, you can set up a default title format or you can insert a specific title when you make your post. The search engines use the title tag as part of their method of deciding what your page is about, but of course it’s not the only part. They also look at other factors like the content of your page and the anchor text of incoming links. More importantly however, the title tag is the first line of the listing that you see in the search results of Google, Yahoo, Bing and others. This is what the user sees before determining whether or not to click on your listing and proceed to your website. Writing an effective page title can mean the difference between the user clicking on your website or going somewhere else. How do you write an effective title tag? Just remember that you have to “sell” the click. Often, as webmasters, we try to cram all the keywords we want to rank for inside the page title. Sometimes people write incredibly long and spammy titles that end up looking more like a novel. Let’s look at two examples of possible page titles for a search for “two piece golf balls”. Golf Balls|Cheap Golf Balls|Discount Golf Balls|Two Piece Golf Balls|Tour Golf Balls Wow, that one looks a little spammy doesn’t it? There really is no reason for the phrase “golf balls” to show up that many times in the title now is there? It’s just an indication of a webmaster who is trying to cover all the bases and make his page rank for multiple keyword phrases. But let’s get back to the user who has just searched for two piece golf balls. What if this next title showed up just below the previous one? Tour Approved Two Piece Golf Balls at Discount Prices Now I don’t know about you, but if I were looking for two piece golf balls and those two results appeared at positions one and two, I would click on the second result first without a doubt. Why? Because it’s easy to read and tells me the website has exactly what I’m looking for. Notice that the second result has the main keyword phrase of golf balls but still includes the secondary keywords of tour, two piece and discount as well. But unlike the first one, it is much easier to read and will be much more likely to result in a clickthrough from someone looking for two piece golf balls. Just remember that the page title tag is actually an advertisement. It’s like a billboard telling searchers what they will find on your site. You want them to click on that title and come to your website so they can see all your wonderful content and hopefully generate some revenue during their visit. So if your traffic isn’t quite...

I’ve now finished day 4 of 31 Days to Build a Better Blog. At the rate I’m going it will likely take me 31 weeks instead of 31 days to complete the course. But that’s ok, I said from the beginning I wasn’t on any strict schedule. My main goal is simply completing it. Day four’s task was to analyze a top blog in your niche. I’m going to briefly point out two blogs that I have in my feedreader and list a few things I like about each one. First on the list is Viper Chill, written by a young blogger who goes by Glenn. Viper Chill covers multiple blogging and marketing topics with the goal of teaching you how to make money online. Most of the posts are geared toward the blogger who has yet to make any significant income online, which probably includes most of the bloggers out there. Viper Chill has a very interactive readership. Just scanning through the posts on the home page at the moment, I see a low comment count of 27 and a high comment count of 95. Obviously, he’s creating content that lots of people like and want to discuss further. Currently, his Feedburner stats show a readership of 3,777. The most interesting thing to me is his posting schedule. In December, he posted only four posts and with today being the last day of January, he has only six for the month. That’s a much lower frequency than most bloggers aim for but if you take a look at his posts, you’ll see what I believe is the main reason for his success. These posts are often massive and always filled with great content. Personally, I just don’t agree with bloggers who put a numerical goal for post frequency. I would rather not read a post unless there is some serious value behind it and Viper Chill fills that need for me....

I’m now through with day 3 of 31 Days to Build a Better Blog. Darren lists 11 different ways to promote a blog post and I used a few different ones on my post from day 2. Specifically I used social messaging, social bookmarking and internal links. Oh, and I also got another blogger to link to it so that makes four I guess. As far as short-term traffic goes from this promotion, I’m seeing minimal results so I guess I’m a poor salesman. However, building links is a long-term process so I’m not concerned. If you had any significant traffic bursts from your blog promotion methods in day 3, let me know. Up next: Day 4 – Watch Somebody Do It Right There are varied remedies for sundry diseases.

I’ve made it through day 2 of 31 Days to Build a Better Blog, but before I talk about today’s task, let me say that I’m trying not to cross a line that I shouldn’t cross as I document myself going through 31DBBB. I don’t want this series of posts to be a free giveaway of Darren’s ebook. However, I do want it to be something people can follow along with after they have already purchased 31DBBB. After re-reading my post from day 1, I feel I went a little too far, so from this point on I will try to speak about the results of my daily tasks without giving away the actual content of Darren’s course.
