Effective blog traffic generation:The power of backlinks

Let me guess, you are looking for a way to rank high in google.Have you ever checked your page rank in google and found out that its very poor? And you start nurturing the idea to quit blogging.If you've gone through aforementioned experience and you've done all your possible best to get your blog rank high in googe,just sit back and read this post carefully.Getting a high page rank in google requires some easy things from you.These easy things are mostly ignored by most bloggers and that's why they are still where they are today.Stuck at the bottom! So what do you do to get a rank well on google?

Not a whole lot of people know this little trick. Ever see an article, or a
blog post that outranks another one, when this article has less page rank, less
backlinks, and less keyword density than the other?

I bet you did see it… but you probably don’t mind it since you don’t
understand it.
You see… google revolves around relevancy.
That’s why they’re so successful in the first place. They want to give
their users the stuff that they want to find, the stuff that is the most
relevant to their search phrases.

So here the few things you've been ignoring or overlooking that you got to try out and see the results on your blog.

  • Backlinking: lots of backlinkings to a blog shows google that the site is a great one.It gives them the impression that the blog has quality contents that the readers share to get its backlinks pasted everywhere.Lots of backlinking shows them that the blog is probably good since it  has its contents shared everywhere.
  • Keyword density: repeated keywords in an article or blog shows google that the blog is based on that keyword and will help increase the page rank.Whenever these keywords are searched on google,your blog will be a major reference to them as a result of the high density of that keyword on your blog.
  • Use of Keyword in the title, description, and other places: have you ever asked yourself why the blogs that rank high in google are not those that post regularly on their blog?Although posting regularly drives traffic but the king of traffic generation is KEYWORD. One may wonder why i'm over emphasizing this particular point.Keyword in the title, description, and other places, will show
    google even more that the article is related to that keyword. It’ll
    be relevant to return that article in the search results for that keyword.

    Alright, I bet you already knew that stuff, but not a whole lot of people
    know this stuff that I’m going to share right now…
    Google is NOT stupid, and they know that Internet Marketers can game the system
    by adding backlinks, writing the article with good keyword density and
    stuff like that.
    And guess what? Google doesn’t like that! They don’t want to have
    their search results manipulated by Internet Marketers for their own financial gain.
    They want everything to look natural.

    Now how can they do that? How can they stop Internet Marketers from
    manipulating their search results? Well the truth is, they can’t, and
    they know they can’t

     Any kind of system can be manipulated, because in the end, the
    human mind is superior...So google can do nothing about it...

    A naturally written article will usually have related keywords along with
    a keyword.
    But an article written by the average Internet Marketer will usually have good
    keyword density… and little to no related keywords at all.
    See what I mean? Make it look natural… just write a decent article,
    with decent keyword density, with some related keywords in it.
    Trust me when I say that you’ll have a much better chance to
    dominate google if you follow these guidelines.

    I’ve seen PR0 blogs that dominate google for a moderate-competition
    keyword with a PR0 Webpage! Yes… they manage to beat other blogs using these techniques!

    Now that you've known the key thing your blog needs for high page ranking,go on and give it a try because a stitch in time saves nine..... Never mind me with that idiom just my first time.

6 killer ways to drive traffic to your blog

You just created a website and have been posting much contents to it.On the way you discover that you don't have enough readers reading your blog post.Then you start to think of ways of getting through with traffic and make your blog popular in the blogosphere.

If you've gone through the above problem and still thinking of what to do,then you got to sit back and raed this post carefully.But before you get a quite number of traffic that can satisfy you,there are some certain things you should stick to.You can call these few things RULES and they the essentials for a blogger to be successful in the blogosphere.The few things are viz;

  1. write well and write often: for a blog to get to a certain height that can make it stand the test of time in the blogosphere,it has to be filled with lots of contents.Study some of those success blogs around today like lindaikeji ,bellanaija ,and you got to discover that they've published not less than 10000 posts on their blogs.That is one the key factor in making your blog popular and keeping the readers you've gotten coming back to your blog.Write shorter posts because get discouraged when they have so much sentences to read in a post.Instead break them up into different posts.Furthermore, post frequently to increase the number of chances you have for your blog's content to be noticed by search engines such as Google or Technorati.
  2. Submit your blog url to search engines: submitting your b log to search engines will get your blog on the directories of those search engines and would make your blog visible to readers searching for your topic.
    Get on the radar screen for the popular search engines such as Google and Yahoo! by submitting your blog url to them. Most search engines provide a 'Submit' link (or something similar) to notify the search engine of your new blog, so those search engines will crawl it and include your pages in their results.
    It's important to understand that simply submitting your blog to search engines doesn't mean your pages will appear at the top of a Google search results screen, but at least your blog will be included and will have the chance of being picked up by a search engine.
    3.Try to make use of blog commenting : commenting is another way of driving traffic to your blog.When readers/visitors visit your blog and drop comments,make sure that you reply to those comments promptly.In that way your future readers will find you trustable and they can even turn into your regular readers.You can also drive traffic to your blog  by commenting on popular blogs and leaving your blog url in the comment so people reading the comments will also try out your site and if they find you reliable ,they become your regular readers.
    4. Syndicate your rss feed: making use of the rss feed will get your blog busy with readers as it reminds them of your new posts and keep them coming back regularly.In that way the readers you've made in the course of time will remain connected to your blog and see it as a source of reliance.
    5. Make use of links and trackbacks: Links and trackbacks: links and trackbacks are also great ways of bringing/driving traffic to your blog.Whenever you publish new posts,ensure you put some internal links to other relevant posts in your blog as it may concern the new post.These way you'll keep your readers busy and increase the average time spent on your blog by the readers.It also makes your blog more visible to search engines.
    Likewise,whenever you post comments on other popular blogs ensure that you leave trackbacks to your blog so that a portion of readers on that blog can visit your blog.If they find it satisfying or compatible in satisfying their needs,they can turn intoyour loyal readers and thats the goal of any blogger-to get loyal readers .
    6. optimise your posts for SEO: SEO stands for Search Engine Optimisation When you write your blog posts and pages, remember to optimize your pages for search engines to find them. Include relevant keywords and links but don't overload your posts with too many relevant keywords or completely irrelevant keywords. Doing so can be considered spamming and could have negative results such as your blog being removed from Google's search entirely.

The meaning of RSS


RSS (Rich Site Summary) is a format for delivering regularly changing web content. Many news-related sites, weblogs and other online publishers syndicate their content as an RSS Feed to whoever wants it. 
Rss is a great way to keep your readers coming back to your site to read your updates. Before people can get your blog updates in their emails they will need to subscribe to your blog rss with their emails.when they do this they will have to go and activate the subscription by activating it on their email inbox. After that they will start receiving all your new posts directly in their emails.This is a major key/factor to consider when creating a blog.It helps you get more readers and keep them coming back to read your posts unlike most blogs where people visit and after reading the post ,they forget the site never to come back to it. Rss ensures that this does'nt happen.
 
To get people subscribe to your rss feed,there are certain factors to consider in order to make it work for you:
 1.Display the rss subscription button at a visible area to your readers.Most rss suscription buttons are not  seen by the readers due to the area where it is located.The best location for rss is at the blog header.Another great location is at the footer.

2.Make the process of subscription easier for the readers.When readers want to subscribe to your blog's rss feed and they find out that the process of subscription is a long and difficult one,they simply forgo it.

If you know of other factors to consider for the effectiveness of rss,include it to the post through the comments... like us on facebook www.facebook.com/techgists and follow us on twitter @ www.twitter.com/techalumniblog .... thank you

Additionally, blog content can be delivered automatically via electronic RSS (Really Simple Syndication) data feeds. Visitors subscribe to a blog's feeds in order to stay up to date with content that's being posted on subjects that interest them.
