If however you have been struggling with how to make your blog search engine friendly, the below tips am about to unfold could be what is required of you to make your blog search engine friendly, and make your blog post indexed on time by most search engines such as Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc. 

 

Table of Contents

  • 1. Consider you blog title and URL
  • 2. Write quality content consistently
  • 3. Blog category and keywords
  • 4. Post tag
  • 5. Constant ping
  • 6. Blog backlink
    • Conclusion
    • Wait! Before You Go, Read:

1. Consider you blog title and URL

Many professional bloggers like John Chow, Matt Cutt, etc. don’t consider this is a blogging priority because they are professional but as a beginner, this is very crucial.

Your blog title and URL must contain some of your blog keywords, because it the best way to have a say over what your blog is ranked for.

 

2. Write quality content consistently

Writing quality content often is equal to last long blog traffic (LLBT). All search engine love something fresh, new and innovative.

The more fresh content you write on your blog either for search engine or your blog visitors, the more you get your blog indexed with the right keyword for a start, and this will stand as a chance for you to have constant blog traffic over the time even when you are on holiday, your blog quality content with rich keyword will do the traffic job on your behalf.

 

3. Blog category and keywords

Note that, if your blog is to be optimized for keywords, that will be what people will be search for, it is wise to categorise your blog content under your blog respective keywords.

The more you make your blog post familiar with your blog keywords categories, the better the rank in search engine.

For instance, if your blog is all about blogging, then, you are expected to have categories like, making money blogging, how to start a blog, blogging template, blogging tips, and all the like.

4. Post tag

Don’t just create blog categories without making use of them.

Before hitting the publish button, make sure you tag each post to their respective categories and keywords that you are targeting your blog post to be ranked for, and this will motivate readers to find their ways on time when reading your blog post.

 

5. Constant ping

I love this aspect so much, this helps you to keep search engine inform that your blog has a new update.

Although there are many ping site that you may use and here are the best three I love using whenever I publish an article on my blog and you too can try them.

They are;

– Googleping.com

– Pingler.com

– Pingomatic.com

 

6. Blog backlink

There are ways of getting blog quality backlink like engaging in forum activities, submitting your blog to blog directories, engage in blog comment, guest blogging, and even paid backlink.

But the best of all that are worth placing priority on are forum, comment, and guest blogging if your writing skill is above average you can give guest blogging a trial.

Reason why I suggested those three backlink sources is just because Google search engine doesn’t frown eye on them because they are considered genuine way of building blog backlinks else search engine may consider you blog backlink as spam and you may be a victim of Google penguin either now or future which will have negative effect on your blog most especially on your blog traffic and search engine ranking.

 

Conclusion

Although, all the above steps may be somehow difficult and unattainable on time, but doing them the best way you can do them will definitely increase your blog search engine visibility.

    Useful tips,But Will Google banned sites with paid backlinks especially in Adsense ?

    • Adesanmi Adedotun says

      August 7, 2013 at 10:17 pm

      Hi Cmhamal

      I think that is best known to Google AdSense team and if this doesn’t go againt Google AdSense policy definitely they won’t but if it does, Google will take action against such account and I believe it does.

    Hope you are doing really good Adesanmi Adedotun, I can see your active performance in the blogopshere, it shows that you are a passionate blogger.

    Yes, agree with your views to make the blog search engine friendly.

    I would like to add these

    If you chose low competitive keywords, you could perform well on search engines.

    Try to use a long tail keyword and include naturally in the first and last paragraph of blog post.

    Keywords should be used in limit and it should not be stuffed unnecessarily.

    You are welcome. please i want to ask a question, when is the right time to monetize a blog? i mean to apply for Google adsense. Thanks

    • Adesanmi Adedotun says

      August 9, 2013 at 7:36 am

      Hi Asaolu,

      It all depends; monetizing sometimes depend on region, like bloggers in Indian , Google AdSense policy says their blog must be six month old before they can be monetized why some bloggers in some region can start monetizing thier blog in less than three month. But it all depend on your blog content and traffic which 50% of your blog traffic must be from search engine. I sincerely recommend you read Google AdSense policy before you apply and that will really help you to understand when it’s right to monetize a blog or website but basically, you need to work on your blog traffic and exposure first.

    I appreciate your making a blog search engine friendly. I have to admit, I really don’t take the time to do it.

    I especially hate building backlinks. I guess I need to be more focused on these types of tasks, especially if I want my blog to rank for certain keywords. Thanks for the share.

    Hi.
    Making your blog Search Engine Friendly is the only way to grow as a community online because sooner or later you will have to depend on search engines for majority of your traffic.
    Social media can give you temporary traffic . So awesome tips on the related topic.

    really helpful tips, thanks for sharing.

    I have a doubt regarding pinging websites, One friend of mine suggested me not to use pinging websites, because if your website have a great reputation then you don’t need to ping your website, it will be indexed itself by search Engine,

    i just wanted to ask he is right about ping websites.
