K, I'm tired of new threads coming up asking the same thing and we're repeating the same answers again and again.

so here is THE thread. talk about it here, discuss it here.

need help on SEO and all other forms of how to move your site? come here.

biggrin.gif

I'll start (in no particular order)

1. Submit to search engine
2. Submit to directory
3. Do SEO (Search Engine Optimization) on your site whenever possible
4. Have good content

well, these are the 4 i have, which I think is good enough. In fact goldfries.com only did #4. tongue.gif #3 here and there.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


biggrin.gif good enough for me!

Anyway, must suggestion to all newbies as usual - MAKE GOOD CONTENT, since most people here are BLOG owners rather than actual company / corporate websites.

Scan the density of a keyword. Choose your keyword wisely smile.gif

Less is More
More is Less
Less doesnt mean NOTHING

The above meaning is choosing a damn popular keyword such as "money" over some not as popular keyword "money earning" doesn't mean you'll get more visitor. The more stuff you'll eventually get is COMPETITION. So choose something which has decent keyword search with less competition biggrin.gif

Call Phase. The Key word have few phase, was mention Phase 1" money", Phase 2 " money earning" phase 3 " money earning program". Only deep study will do well. it can forward or reverse the word.

noooo... you cannot do like that

when you submit to any search engine, you didn't get any chance in getting any traffic unless your website is niche.

Steps from Goldfries is consider the basic steps.

But there are around 6 more advanced steps to increase your traffic ranking.

5. Submit video to youtube, metacafe or break
6. Submit bulletin using Myspace, Facebook, Friendster
7. Submit to 100 more directory which you can do it manually or automactically by breaking the captcha code
8. buy expired domain ( domain which are 1 to 2 years old are consider the best in getting the traffic
9. Go out with Adwords.Advertise your website
10. Open blog with Blog.com , Blogger.com , wordpress.com and start writing your own content and link back to your website

I suggest you read my Internet Marketing Center Portal at http://www.sindiket.com

Download WebCeo and start tuning your website to match the related keywords

My web is no.1 in Google page for keyword "pemasaran internet"

Submit your website URL to other website is a good idea but it's not so perfect.

One of the Internet Marketer, he doesn't care anything about Search Engine but his website get to the top of search engine.

The most important is the meta section. If all your keyword can work very well, you will get to the top but It will take some times.

The Most Faster Ways
1. Spead more money on Advertising.
2. Use Sitemap and RSS.
3. Submit Your URL at Directories Website.
4. Try to spam the text but don't too over. If not, your website will get ban.
5. Use different keywords for each Topic/Title

If you follow everything above, your website will get to the top of search engine.

Advertising Website

Google Adwords
http://adwords.google.com

Hotmail Advertising
http://advertising.microsoft.com/hotmail

Microsoft adCenter

Yahoo! Advertising Solutions

that might get you top of the search engines, but not Google.

Google has ways to prevent these things that are too easy to do.

Another way of doing it, is to increase you pagerank. To do so, you need as many back links as possible. What you can do to get more back link is submit your entry to the following site. (of course you have to register)

http://negaraku.net , Malaysian one!
http://digg.com
http://stumbleupon.com
http://rockyourvote.net
http://fark.com

I'd suggest you go to Malaysian ones first. There's about 1000 visitors daily, at least 4-5 people will read your entry. Who knows, they might put your link on their blogs. hehehe wink.gif

Besides good content + SEO, another method is using the current most popular social networking. forums... facebook... digg... comment on other blogs... etc, be active in blogosphere and social networking, it might help. Participate more, get exposure more.

I am totally a dummy on the SEO, search engine thingy etc.

My 2 cents for a good blog,

1. Good content
2. Post regularly
3. Mingle & join party, gathering, etc.
4. Be yourself

Cheers!

Those are just many ways. smile.gif SEO helps you get visitors, but doesn't exactly make the blog popular.

as for posting frequency - it really depends on the blog. For me, my articles are anywhere from 3 to 7 days apart.

and i like your point #4 - BE YOURSELF, just as long as you don't be an ass, jerk or bitch la unless you want instant fame in a bad way.

Choose something sensitive to write and you'll be popular on the next day either to be arrested or on the newspaper headline. smile.gif

But I believe if you discover something first about someone popular, say Paris Hilton or Siti Nurhaliza.

my 2cents,

easiest way to get an interactive banner, i would say, check out at http://www.feedburner.com , everything is automated just like my signature. As for those fancy with pictures, perhaps if you hav some skill in photoshop do a banner by urself then upload to feedburner as well. simple.

For bloggers maybe you add a few SEO plugins like ALL SEO plugin. Helps a lot and also consider to change your permalink to make it more SEO friendly.smile.gif
However remember to avoid duplicate content.
Use copyspace to check this.
Dupliacte content will automatically labeled by Google as low standard sites and will not help you to rank well in SERP.

The most common and effective way to increase population of your site/blog/forum

1. Articles directories submission
2. Directories submission
3. Link exchange
4. Do follow signature link from forum
5. Do follow comments link from other blog
6. 100% unique content, and include your keywords as anchor text.
7. Video marketing
8. Yahoo Answer ( Answer according to the question which related to your niche)
9. Social bookmarking.

and as for the seo plugin for wordpress, it is pretty simple as you just need to activate it and put your title, description and keyword at each of your post. Do not include keywords which irrelevant to your site cause you might get penalty from google. Moreover, quality content and strong backlink is needed so you won't face google sandbox effect.

Any Pm is welcome if you have any question to ask, thanks brows.gif

Yeap, no doubt bout it , content is king and the soul of the web but think about it, how many people are doing/writing the same niche/topic with you, without a strong and quality backlink, it is impossible to get into top 1000 in google SERP.
So a tips for people who want to get more traffic to their blog.

1. Post at least 2-5 comments on related niche dofollow's blog.
2. Post at least 2-5 reply to dofollow's forum, the best is niche related.

P/s : Do include your keyword as anchor text, for example if you keyword is money, you could try put money/money face/money lover as your name to post comments.

You can see significant result in a week.

Wow!

I love these ideas. smile.gif
I will surely try all these.

Here's what I understand and little confuse right now:

1. SEO plugin related to keywords about my blog.
Whenever I post a blog, I need to activate the
SEO plugin. So if I have about 50 posts, I need
to activate it 50 times like that?
Where can I activate it? Do I need to go to
certain website?

2. The reason we post related content about our blog
and comments at other blogs with the same niche
is to spread our link. Then the spider will detect it
and our rank will go up.
Is it true?

3. What is the meaning of these? :

QUOTE
4. Do follow signature link from forum
    5. Do follow comments link from other blog


4. Social Bookmarking are like Friendster, Myspace etc isn't?

5. About the video marketing, does it mean that I need to
capture the video I am talking about the blog contents
and upload it to YouTube like that?

6. The articles and directories submission is the same as
"pinging" isn't? or is it different?

7. It's the first time I know about using yahoo answer.
Hmm.. I will try to check it. smile.gif

Fuh, that's all for now. There's really a long journey for me
as a super nooby in this area of blogging. I even got called
"blogwhore" at the Health forum for trying to tell people
about my blog. I really don't know about it.

Anyway, thanks guys.
Thanks JoelWyn
Thanks goldfries

Hope to read from you soon..

Hi Bizmind, glad you like them.

For your enquiry,

1. Seo Plugin is a plugin for wordpress blog. Wordpress is good with SEO and search engine love wordpress blog. You have to activate them once and it will available at the bottom of you posting page.

2. Yes posting comments at related blog and other site is known as backlinks. The stronger backlinks you have, the better page rank you got. It also will help you to increase your site traffics. But remember this, do it naturally so google won't give any penalty to your site. naturally mean, around 10-20 comments and forum post per day.

3. Social bookmarking is refer to Techro, Dig, Delicios and etc.
You can use this half auto social bookmarking tools here http://www.socialmarker.com/

4. Video marketing is create a video which is interesting, it can related or not related to your niche , it doesn't matter. You create and interesting video and put watermark at the bottom of the video which contain your site url. So when people will the video, indirectly they will notice your link as well.

5. Articles directories and directories work as giving you backlinks. Articles directories will bring you more traffics, as most of the articles directory have higher pr and position at search engine.

For example: i posted one articles at ezine.com
the articles name : Reduce The Burden of Student Loan Debt
The original site url : http://loan.juststudent.net

You search at google see which appear at the first page.

Besides that, if someone feed your articles, you can gain traffic from their site too right ?

6. Yahoo answer worth to try as the visitor will be targeted because you posting at the section which related to your site but it is only something for short terms. With good ads placement, you probably will get clicks from visitor from yahoo answer because they are desperate for the thing they are looking for. Besides that, it will give you backlinks as well.

It is not a long journey anymore if you do it correctly, i hope it can help you and please do question here if you have any problem.

No problem dude,

And for blogger, it is very limited and they don't have any plugin for this. You have to do them manually. For my personal opinion, blogger is for beginner and once you can handle blogger, switch to wordpress.

Different between blogger and wordpress:

Blogger :
Advantage - They host for you, easy to use.
Disadvantage - very limited tools

Wordpress:
Advantage - Thousand of useful plugin, lots of feature
Disadvantage - self hosting

2. Yes posting comments at related blog and other site is known as backlinks. The stronger backlinks you have, the better page rank you got. It also will help you to increase your site traffics. But remember this, do it naturally so google won't give any penalty to your site. naturally mean, around 10-20 comments and forum post per day.


it's not just comments la. people put your site at blogroll also will add to your backlinks (also as inlink, or inbound link........ and more) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlink

you can use https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/

or just search for Backlink Checker to see how many you have. smile.gif

JoelWyn another thing is page rank, you should put it as pagerank (joined words) or PR. would be better or else people quite often think of it as result pages rank, which is different.

not entirely correct.

wordpress.org allows you to download the wp engine and host it yourself.

wordpress.com host for you, easy to use too. they have generally better features than Blogger and have nicer themes.

for wordpress.com, you can't put ad scripts. it's a disadvantage to people who wish to place ads. smile.gif

blogger is good for beginner but they can always continue it when they are doing well.

wordpress also fine for newbie actually. so either way is fine.

try to avoid the switching part because of the hassle involved. you build PR on blogspot.com and backlinks already, then go new domain. all lost. or at least have to rebuild.

Hi Goldfries, the question he asked is about what commenting for, not what is backlinks.

The making of videos to promote your website or products is also known as Viral Marketing if I'm not mistaken. Or is it Guerilla... Bleh.. tongue.gif Seems like a good source of direct traffic to my website. Good idea for you guys if you have written a good article and want ppl to know about it. Youtube is afterall a PR 9 website smile.gif

directory is different.

directory is like http://www.dmoz.org/

Hi... well, it was by way of mouth, so no way to send you link! tongue.gif Anyway, you are right. I just wanna highlight just in case anyone wanna try both BlogExplosion and Adsense... I am wondering now, Adsense is there but would I, as a visitor to any blog be bother to click on it unless the content of both the blog and Advert is relevant to my search? If that is the case, would it be better to find a niche and put our heads in building up that niche (so far, I haven't found out what is the niche, yet) and backlinks can only help SEO if the links linking each other are relevant enough, am I correct?

By the way, Bizmind, I just thought of something... why not put your link in Wikipedia since I see your blog is about health... and the info looks good enough for Wikipedia level... so maybe people looking for related information might click on yours and increase traffic as well as build up your rep in that community! rclxms.gif

I mean, even if your page is ranked 1st, it won't mean, me, as the researcher of the information, would re-visit that particular page again UNLESS, there is something interesting, unique, NOT just REHASHING of the same stuff found all over the net and lastly, updates! At the end of the day, Page Rank is just a number in this vast sea of information. Do you agree? smile.gif

I think in order to make a blog popular, is to write something that can create a resonance among the readers. Like kennysia, xiaxue, RPK, they are write things that make resonance among us.

I think to make your blog popular, you have to define a theme for your blog and define the readers who are going to read. Who are they, what are their thoughts, what they are expecting from your themed blog and etc. Write something that kick the world into their heart. I think with that, your blog will be promoted by word of mouth and along the time, people will start to link to you recommending others to read.

From there on, your readers, sponsors will come along and congratulations, you've done it!

SEO, adsense and other paid marketing are meant for commercial purpose. It need big cost and I bet a blogger who write for leisure (at initial stage) does not want to spend that much of money. For example did you see kennysia buy advertisement before? I am not sure but I didn't see before so far. But is he famous? You bet.

So bottom line:
define what you want(readers, themes), bomb it with contents, creativity in presenting the contents and link exchange with others.

What do you think?

I thought that pagerank is the result that shows when you search at google. The number one website shown is the one with the number one pagerank. So I misunderstood all this time.. Huhu~~ sad.gif

put up contreversial postings that will get media attention. remember to put links to your blog in other people's blog comment section. but remember to keep the content relevant of course so they will keep coming back for more. and NO do not post nude pictures in blogs, it might get your account suspended. someone is just triyng to give stupid advice or get your blog account suspended

This is my experience and just want to share with your all guys.The best way to increase your blog traffic is try create your free domain names from co.cc,co.nr or dot tk.For example,your blog is about racing car.So,you may create a nice free domain names such as www.racingcar.co.cc and then forward URL back to your blog.It can increase your blog traffic.

And also,submit your blog to digg,delicious,stumble upon and others social network bookmark.

Note:Submit to all search engine will not work actually but will be have more email spam for u only.Submit to google,yahoo,dmzrog,blog directory and msn.It will should enough for make your blog traffic increase.

nobody's coming back to your blog the 2nd time if your contents are no good.

try out http://www.alphainventions.com.. a new thing that's quite popular recently i guess. it drives traffic to your blog! ^^

I want to ask for some opinions here.
Should I focus on 1 blog?

Right now I have more than one blog
and it is hard to maintain each of them
everyday.

What are the advantages and disadvantages
either having 1 blog or many blogs?

I think u have to take one at a time, after it is almost stable and become auto-pilot status, u onli start another one..
If u handle several blogs at one time, u can't really make all of them to the best.
Unless u r expert in blogging and blog for quite some time d, otherwise u dun do that.

1. there's no way to auto-pilot it. the only way i can think of a site being auto-pilot (eg, no human intervention at all) is to rely on plugin to extract content from other place and put as post. which is point less.

2. a person can have many blogs, there's no rule or recommended period before or when one can only start a new blog.

3. yes. handling many blogs at once could hurt the quality, even for the experts BUT there are ways of doing it. smile.gif see, i myself have many websites.
http://www.goldfries.com - me
http://www.goldfries.com/inperson - me
http://www.buurps.com - me + 3 other writers
http://www.htmy.org - me + er...... i can't remember how many writers. i think got 4 la. tongue.gif
http://www.mustgolah.com - someone else writes the content. i just do the site / maintenance

biggrin.gif and that's beside running my own business PLUS a few more sites not yet unveiled.

Thanks guys and gals..

Actually the reason I created many blogs is to focus on specific topic. But then, I in order to make it to be active blog, I need to update it once a day. So if I have 10 blogs, I will need to write 10 posts a day not included all the articles, website and forum contents that I need to write. Some more my English writing is not good so I need to re-read the words that I wrote to reduce the errors. T_T

The only solution for this problem that I can think of is to gather all posts in 1 blog and categorized it by labels. Any comments regarding this?

Now I am starting to wonder why did people make more than 1 blog? Is there any good reason for that?
I saw people created many blogs so I think it is important to do so. Now I realized that it hurts my time.

As for Goldfries, I see that you have many blogs. But you have other writers for your blog which is good to reduce the time spent for blogging.
May I ask why do you create many blogs?
Can't you just put it all in one blog?

That's different niche blog..if all topic mix in 1 blog..becomes "chap pa lang" blog or so called "rojak" blog..let say someone looking for food and get into your blog through search engine..if he found your blog only have 2 or 3 posts about food..and other posts are talk about personal rant..do you think people will stay ?
Specific topic is always better than rojak niche...(Unless you're going for personal blog..that's different case)

Correct me if im wrong..=)

The auto-pilot i meant is everything stable and the writer write for you periodically, what u have to do is maintenance the blog.

Actually got one site can automatically submit article to your blog, you don't even have to pay for the writer to write for you, but you cannot remove the link inside the article link back to the author's blog, this is auto-posting.

For new blogger like us, we are not expert, it is really hard to handle several blogs in one time. It can be done after you done with several blogs and familar with it, should be no problem then..

For me, I handle 2 blogs in one time, I really use a lot of time to do the SEM, i think this took me quite some time. Because I'm new to blogging.

Since you are expert in blogging, can give us some advice?

Yeah.. That's what I heard from others the other day.
That's why I started different blog for different niche.

Hmm.. I am thinking of 1 thing..

"Is it possible that readers only subscribe to the specific
blog label only?"

What I mean is, for example if the readers subsrcibe to
my post labeled "health", they will only get notified
whenever I posted about "health"..

Is there any feature or way to do that? biggrin.gif

sad.gif yeah this type of auto-pilot is similar to the one i mentioned lor. it auto post. meaning other people's content on your place. so end up being news repository.

what's SEM? or SEO?

it depends on your blog types actually.

for me, my blogs are difficult to handle alone. that's why there's the casual ones, and then serious ones which i have other people working with me.

QUOTE(giorgene @ Oct 24 2008, 09:46 AM)

oh simple

if you don't have any help - then you have to know your limit. just because the blogger who make 5 digit a month have 12 blogs that doesn't mean you have to. even he has to pay people to help his blogging and works long hours.

i'm certainly not sure whether i could be called expert blogger yet but basically it's a matter of quality vs quantity. if you're having 5 blogs and handle alone and want to post daily! wow, might as well resign.

for me, i really cannot. http://www.goldfries.com articles takes time to write. http://www.buurps.com if rely on me alone, it won't work. it'll sure fail. even though i don't write much there, my work is still more than the rest actually. as for http://www.mustgolah.com , someone else is doing the scouting and posting of details, i manage the technical / marketing / consultation.

phew......... tiring leh? and those are just blogs. let's not mention the 4 forums i moderate + business to run.

so you see, it's there's no clear rule on how many blogs you have. it depends on you, your time, your skill and what you have.

yes better that way, or at least similar topic range.

eg, finance can also have business. probably property or investment as well.

but surely not having fashion or tech.

Ya.. I spent about 8 hours + a day in front of my computer trying to do online learning. It includes the blog posting process. Quite unlucky for me because I have problem writting in English. Need to spend some more time to revise the "primary school english" basic on the net.
I guess I am still a "Butterfly in Cocoon" that need guidance from all the "Butterflies" in this thread.

Maybe in order to create a lot of blogs, I need to recruit additional writers to the blog (same as Goldfries ^^).
I got questions for Goldfries:

"How do you find the other authors for your blog?"

"Do they blog with their own ideas or is it you who instruct them what to write?"

However, if you wan to know more details, for example google

As for Nuffnang I am no so sure..

it's only a statistic for # of impressions and unique visitors.

it doesn't register page views simply because 1 page view could have more than 1 impression.

yea sure you can. get a host (find one that suits you at malaysianhosts.com)

u can install your own wordpress or for ease of use just use fantastico in your control panel to install wordpress/(or any other blog system)

you can buy as many domains as you like, but there will be costs. alternatively, just buy one domain and create unlimited(usually) subdomains.

Stumble upon will bring instant huge traffic to your site. I got SU few times and it really brings big amount of traffic source. But normally will last for 2 days like that.

Digg is scarier. If got Digg to front page, you will hear the rhyme of the Digg Song - oops, another server down.

Digg is scarier. If got Digg to front page, you will hear the rhyme of the Digg Song - oops, another server down.

What does it mean by "scarier" and "oops, another server down"?
Sorry I don't get it..

I think what he means is the high traffic from digg will quickly eat up your bandwidth if you're on paid hosting

Hi blogmasters, I heard that adding tag with keywords on your blog can make people easier to search your blog. True?

Can enlighten me on how to add tags in blogger ? I've looked through the Blogger Help but very blur blur...

try to get updated with hot topic/news.
then make a post on your blog with rich-keywords related to the hot topic.
make them unique and interesting, if got photo or video are better.
then digg and stumble your post around the net.
that is what I do when I got 2millions hits on topic that I made less than 2 weeks.

not much on digging but at least one digg is enough, just make one story submit to each popular social bookmarking site that is fine.

Used tags and follow some of the advice given above. Content is everything, don't write too much variety of topics or you will confuse the major search engines (SE)algorithym. For eg, if you blog about food, keep your whole blog around that topic. Don't talk a bit food, a bit cars, a bit romance. Rojak is not SE friendly.

I use a simple, effective yet very powerful system to make a popular site. Click on my links below for more info.

No need, just register an account, then login, go to "submit new" tab install the stumble upon tool bar (u gonna use this pretty often), go to your post, press the "thumbs up" button, if this link is not yet submited to StumbleUpon (SU) it will ask u to type ur post link, title, add description and submit.

but then, i have no idea how other ppl able to see the submitted link on stumble upon website. i tried to search and play around for hours and i couldn't see my own link lol.

SU ur own blog? if u installed the tool bar...

1. log in SU
2. press the "thumbs up" button (u only can do it once) and it will be stumbled
3. repeat step 2 for home page and every individual post page u have.
4. check ur traffic after that smile.gif

btw, SU is very focus on US users, so i dont know if this can increase ur sales / NN earnings or not. It depends on ur niche and ur target viewer

This is not the proper way, you must have a good content article with attractive headline to catch SU users attention.
Not much help if you SU your own blog and keep doing that.

Ranking high in search engine for good keyword is definitely helpful to get more traffic.
To get good ranking fast, optimized blog for long-tail keyword with min. competition. Get as many banklinks as possible with anchor text pointing back to your blog. Just make sure the link point back to both main domain and also subpages (deep linking)...

it works for my niche blogs....try it out smile.gif

Does this mean that we need to decide the keyword before start creating blog?
If so, this will mean that there will be no chance for other bloggers to start blogging
for some profit because all the nice and less competition keywords have been taken..

i would suggest go for certain combination of keywords.

i use my blog as example, if i search my blog with "anime mobile wallpaper", the site will end up in 8th page in google ranking (yea this is pretty bad). But if u use combination of common keywords + specific keywords it will easily bring u up to the top. my blog will be listed 3rd in google if i search with "moyashimon mobile wallpaper" or 7th position with "moyashimon wallpaper". (FYI moyashimon is an anime title).

instead of compete with thousands of wallpaper site out there, i rather go for "anime title"+"mobile"+"wallpaper" combination. it provides more possibility for user that looking for specific info, rather than just stuck with "anime wallpaper". I would like to know more about SEO if more guru willing to share the tips biggrin.gif (i'm very new in blogging field).

depend what keyword that you're targeting..you have to check the search volume of the keyword b4 you optimize it..if no one search for the keyword..then you got no traffics at all..

I'm using Google Adword keyword tools to do this research..

It is more like to use the keyword in few position on ur website:

1. page title / website title
2. web url
3. <h1> header
4. first paragraph of you body content
5. for blog, add more tag with keywords.

this is the basic idea. i find this article is quite useful, u can have a look here

Suggest you to put more content on your website....Besides links, there are not much content that I can see. Although the search engine rules doesn't say that you must have a content-rich website to rank high, but it is much more easier to rank with a content rich site as we can easily optimized it with proper tag and keyword density. I have seen many times a single page article (around 400-words) rank #1 in Google for long-tail, low competition keyword and this is very common and doable. by the way, the SE loves content very much.....

Adding more optimized content is the first thing to do, but there are more than that.....

For a new website or blog, there are basically 2 things that we wanted to achieve. firstly, to get our site indexed by Search Engine. By getting indexed means to get our site appear in the Search Engine. When first indexed, it could be appeared in page 100, 200 or 500 but that doesn't really matter for now. Next, we are going to push the site higher in the ranking. So we want to improve the rank say from Page 100 to page 2, this is where you have to do proper SEO optimization to achieve this...In short, few things to take into consideration

a. Proper keyword research (low competition)
b. get more backlinks with anchor text
c. On-site optimization (to include proper tag on your website and may consider appropriate keyword density)


hope that helps...

change the theme. its too common, so it makes your site look generic.

also put a most-viewed list and allow people to vote maybe. it will keep people browsing thru ur site.

Another way of doing it, is to increase you pagerank. To do so, you need as many back links as possible. What you can do to get more back link is submit your entry to the following site. (of course you have to register)

http://negaraku.net , Malaysian one!
http://digg.com
http://stumbleupon.com
http://rockyourvote.net
http://fark.com

I'd suggest you go to Malaysian ones first. There's about 1000 visitors daily, at least 4-5 people will read your entry. Who knows, they might put your link on their blogs. hehehe wink.gif

Blogging needs persistence.
I've been stopping updating my blog about
2 months due to internet problems and I can
see how my google adsense income has reduce
a lot!
By the time I had internet connection, it feels hard
to continue blogging but it is not something that
we can just give up on just like that.

The keypoint here is "Persistence"
(and internet connection of course happy.gif)

Okay. Here's my few cents in order to get better traffic for your site.

1. Use Wordpress (seo friendly). Install All in one seo plugin
2. Wise use of feedburner
3. Install Alexa widget
4. Blog-walking
5. Forum signature
6. submit directories
7. submit press release
8. submit search engine ( try http://freewebsubmission.com/ )
10. any other?

Repeat all listed here and surely your blog get well result mah. cheers!

yeah.. and in fact.. it's faster for google to index blogspot contents compared to wordpress.. but if u are expert in manipulating SEO.. it's not a problem cool2.gif

btw, the important thing is keep updating your blog and keep in contact with other bloggers. your rank especially in technorati will automatically increased.

I found the site to submit your site / blog to many search engines.

guys, if you do have mandarin-written blog, you can now take advantage of local mandarin social bookmarking site which is dedicated to help propagating malaysia and singapore mandarin-written blogs,

see it now, already got some active bloggers actively posting their latest post there trying luring readers: www.huluhala.com (the site name is a bit funny, it is called chit-chating bottle gourd in mandarin)

what do you want to use as your platform to make money?

if you want to make money through adsense, do a research about high paying keywords

if you want to make money by posting review in your blog, there's a lot of paying portal review out there nod.gif

i'd posted something about making money, in my blog - http://aloneinhome.com/making-money-online/

maybe it'll helps u smile.gif

Write a blog in niche which helps. Most of the blogger are earning through PPC, affiliate or paid to write review.
And high pay niche will give you some advantage on adsense CPC. However, those high pay niche definately need some proffesional knowledge, try law, loan, forex,finance niche which have better pay

High pay keyword is not depend on the search amount but the advertiser. And most the high pay keyword has less ppl search compare to those low pay keyword. Those game or entertainment related keyword mostly is low pay keyword but law, health, finance niche has quite number of high pay keyword

Hi all..just registered with lowyat..haha..so slow of me..but anyway, can't seem to find place to 'introduce yourself', so here I am, trying to answer your question. Ahem..

Adwords =ways to promote websites, you pay google money so that they advertise you website in any other websites ( or blogs). For example, if your website is about computers (selling computers maybe) than your ads will likely be advertised on a computer realted blog, it's all depend on the keyword. Adword is a very good way to increased traffic to your website.

And just for your info,

Adsense = a google programme that allows website(or blog) owner to publish ads on their sites, when someone clicks on the ads, the site owner gain some amount of money, this is because they actually helps the advertiser to increase their traffic thus increasing chances for their product to be sold.

And with that, I ends my messy explanation. God my english is suck!

In Malaysia, those who can read Mandarin also understand English, so there is less demand for Mandarin blogs unlike China, Taiwan and Hong Kong.

noooo... you cannot do like that

when you submit to any search engine, you didn't get any chance in getting any traffic unless your website is niche.

Steps from Goldfries is consider the basic steps.

But there are around 6 more advanced steps to increase your traffic ranking.

5. Submit video to youtube, metacafe or break
6. Submit bulletin using Myspace, Facebook, Friendster
7. Submit to 100 more directory which you can do it manually or automactically by breaking the captcha code
8. buy expired domain ( domain which are 1 to 2 years old are consider the best in getting the traffic
9. Go out with Adwords.Advertise your website
10. Open blog with Blog.com , Blogger.com , wordpress.com and start writing your own content and link back to your website

I suggest you read my Internet Marketing Center Portal at http://www.sindiket.com

Download WebCeo and start tuning your website to match the related keywords

My web is no.1 in Google page for keyword "pemasaran internet"
*
Oh no... I'm a bit outdated... didn't know lowyat has such cool forum. Have been searching around on the way to promote my blog but failed.

Talking about 8. but expired domain, how does it relate to getting your blog popular?

No. 10, I have already had my own blog, then what content I gonna write in other blogs to link back to my original blogs?

For normal blogger, any way to promote my blog besides blog hopping? It's quite tiring to hop just for the sake to attract traffics.

Thanks!

Hi guys, the info here is pretty useful.

Does anyone have an idea what is DoFollow attribute? Does it help with SEO? There's a plugin called NoFollow as the attribute, DoFollow results in more spam rather than reducing it.

In simpler words...

NoFollow
Tells Google to not heavily consider the link or webpage for their search rankings. The reason Wordpress incorporated nofollow into their comment links is so spammers who like to comment with their URL in your comment area don't get a free link exchange. Especially when they're not even contributing to the discussion.

DoFollow
Technically, there is no such term. LOL! If you don't have nofollow or isn't programmed in the system to recognize links as nofollow then default, it's a "dofollow". tongue.gif

I wouldn't say nofollow doesn't affect SEO. It's just not 1 of the main criteria in SEO. The nofollow is more about assisting search engines to recognize which links is credible. smile.gif

hi guys,

to get your blog popular, you may wanna use Facebook as a marketing tool. It is not simply setting up a Fan Page, but you can create Groups in Facebook on your particular blog topic, let's say gardening Group and pump all the Facebook members into that group. Everytime that you update your blog, just Message all members of group to ask them to come and read your blog. These people who visit your site will spread the news about you in Facebook and in online or offline making it even more popular. To learn more about this, you can attend an upcoming seminar with the details at http://www.sales2marketing2.com

I've been blogging for 3 years now. And since 2 weeks ago, I've been looking into all these Adsense and online making tips. I wonder what have I been doing all these years! I missed out so many money making chances and opportunities to drive traffic to my blog.

"Nah... my blog is for friends and family only. No need put up ads to spoil the design la"

Hehe that was stupid.

So I started looking deep into forums, and I start from lowyat forum (has been a member here, but only active in Audiophile). All I wanted to say is, thanks for sharing so many tips and guides, especially Mr Goldfries smile.gif

Give me some time to browse through all the sites.. too many links lah. Don't know which one to focus. I notice some of the links are dead, some SEO tips are pretty outdated too.. any chance to open up a new thread again? It's 2009 already...

i think it's alright la but again it depends.

if you took my articles and rephrase everything and call it yours, that would be unethical.

however if you took NEWS and commented on NEWS, eg Barca beat MU due to midfield control then you share your thoughts on what could've been done like MU should've hold midfield and take advantage of Barca weak defences - then i think that's fine.

Yes unethical...Unless Ronaldo himself told you that. You need to credit the site you got your news from. Something like According to La gazette de la Sport, Ronaldo announced his intentions of moving to Real Madrid. The you can quote what he said from the news report. And then make sure put your commentary on it.

hi,

nice to read all of your comments....... thanks for all the tips goldfries n co  thumbup.gif

I got some F1 videos.....so if I upload it in youtube, how much traffic am i getting? i mean, are people really2 going to see my profile and click to my website link  unsure.gif

well you can repeat view this thread to understand more, i also still learning to blogging and seo.
traffic you gain not absolutelly mean people clicking your link at site, just view your page =count 1.
if some one enter your site and stay or checking,view other stuff you have , that's call unique visitor.
if not they are just step by... no meaning of them,

sure, you can hear they said: content are the king, the most funny, useful, meaning stuff you add you will gain more visitor.

good luck and growth together!

As i know using small part of video / scene for review is ok as long as it doesn't cause any damage to the copyright owner. else most of the fans need to be jailed.

yeah.. and in fact.. it's faster for google to index blogspot contents compared to wordpress.. but if u are expert in manipulating SEO.. it's not a problem  cool2.gif

btw, the important thing is keep updating your blog and keep in contact with other bloggers. your rank especially in technorati will automatically increased.

I found the site to submit your site / blog to many search engines.

Choose a niche topic to blog/write about. Are you a car enthusiast? Then write about cars..

Love pets? Then write about pets.

For newbies, especially in such a saturated internet space, try not to write a blog about everything under the sun, as those are much harder to gain in popularity...

unless of course you are a pretty girl/ have a huge group of friends/ a celebrity etc.

Then it's much easier. For the rest of us, be specific, do some SEO, use Facebook (a MUST) and just keep writing good content.

Good luck!

yes. it is because when user search for info, they dont search multiple niche in the same time. usually they will focus on 1 thing, like car, in order for the user to be happy and come back for more car info, the site is better to be specialize in the thing. other content means nothing but crap to the visitor

yeah right.

if you're not a popular person, or don't possess the physique that make others drool - forget about it.

it just makes you an attention whore and overall gives you a bad name.

You'll still need to manage 3 blogs - content.

One of the reasons some create more blogs is their plan to get more from advertising by the numbers. However, the #1 myth most seminar speakers don't tell you is the quality content you're expected to churn out to generate the money.

yup, making your blog more popular can be a full time job. If you manage 3 different blogs with 3 different niches, you have the best chance of making each one popular.

From Google's point of view, your site will be keyword rich and related to a single niche. You will gain from the Search engines.

I think at the end of the day, you need to socialise more, create an online presence and at the same time provide interesting content to your readers...

I am also still new to this world...still learning =)

Twitter is a very good tool to create an online presence

you twitter put your lenglui pic ok wan. biggrin.gif

but i use twitter but not so much on marketing my site but making friends instead.

for me, so far what i find is that content that makes your site shine. marketing efforts for a contentless site is still useless. people come, then never come back.

Depends, for laptop disassembly articles I spend about 3 hours.

For short posts I would spend about an hour or two ... longer posts might spend the whole afternoon writing.

Then give it to my editor to edit would take about less than an hour.

Added on September 23, 2009, 11:52 pmI want to discuss here.
If I am using blogger, does that means that I don't need to worry about "submitting to search engine"?

And also, about "choosing your keywords", is it about the tag that I decide for each post?

I think that blog will help you in the long run. If your blog is just 1 or 2 years old, don't expect much from it. Just continue posting. Once it have the right resources to grow, it will grow exponentially. Sometimes, it explodes! smile.gif

not only that.by giving your readers the option to read entries from their desktops or email boxes,it will show that you really care about your readers. plus then it keeps in touch with your reader although they are not visiting your blog. =)

If you're concerned about your adsense, feedburner also offered adsense for feeds. you can try that, the ads will also appear on your readers mailbox or desktop.gud luck =)
*
I do have adsense for feeds in my email feeds but the earning is almost RM0 for few months. I treat feedburner email feeds as "email to update" new posts & subscribers have to click the link to my blog to read the full articles, yes, I forced them to visit my blog to read so got chance to click my ads smile.gif

From my observation, regular readers seldom click our ads, only odd visitors come in will click.

Tina, SEO helps the search engines find your site, and that is all.

To get traffic, make pages that contain what people want to read, and through the magic of Google, visitors will start flowing in. The more of these pages you have, the better.

Previously it is important but not now since too many spamming using meta tag as their seo strategy.
Anyway, not sure about other search engine, maybe it still useful for other search engine than google

Another way of doing it, is to increase you pagerank. To do so, you need as many back links as possible. What you can do to get more back link is submit your entry to the following site. (of course you have to register)

http://negaraku.net , Malaysian one!
http://digg.com
http://stumbleupon.com
http://rockyourvote.net
http://fark.com

I'd suggest you go to Malaysian ones first. There's about 1000 visitors daily, at least 4-5 people will read your entry. Who knows, they might put your link on their blogs. hehehe wink.gif

u mean submit your blog once to all social bookmark sites? I think there are a lot of similar services and I also submitted but dun see any improvement on traffic... rclxub.gif

if we have submitted our blog via other "Free Submission sites", I'm afraid if we submit again and keep submitting our blog to social bookmarks via diff channels, they will treat our blog as "spam" coz multiple submission, am i right? hmm.gif

really? i use this free submit site for all my sites and from my observation, i can see the difference between before and after i submit to this site in term of traffic and page per views. btw, i don't record any image of the performance.

i dunno about this "spam" thing but until today i just submit only once for a site. btw, this is a new thing for me. i'll explore more about this. Thanks! smile.gif

u can use statcounter or google analytics to trace where your visitors came from. You can know how many sites backlink to your blog also. Then u can know actually how many visitors drive to your blog via these social bookmarks. It's free service to trace...

Great tips all, thanks.

But honestly, there is no easy way in getting popular. IMHO, hard and smart work pays off always.

The number one thing that always works well is content, content and content. Submitting to multiple search engines and directories would not give you the results if you just make one post a week. Crawlers love sites with quality content and regular submissions. An average submission would be a minimum of 3-4 postings a week. But dun la go make silly postings like a lot of peeps I know, just to make content.

Grammar is also very important if you want to rank well overall. I mean if 'Yr bl0g iz 4 msian r3aders' then by all means, go Malaysian all the way la.

You can take a look at my blog as I try to target international readers more. Some people spend 10-20 minutes making a blog posting. In my case, I spend up to 3-4 hours doing it because I try to avoid spelling errors, grammar mistakes and so on. By the way, I only started my blog in June of 09. It is now Dec 09.

Blog Aggregators are a great way of promoting your blogs. Here are some of the known ones in no order;

http://www.bloggerunited.com/
http://www.imcurtain.com/
http://www.malaysian-blog.com/
http://negaraku.net/
http://www.blogged.my/
http://www.petalingstreet.org/

Try joining and submitting your postings there to get more exposure. If you see my postings there, support it smile.gif

I hope this helps boost your blogs a little.

But honestly, there is no easy way in getting popular. IMHO, hard and smart work pays off always.

The number one thing that always works well is content, content and content. Submitting to multiple search engines and directories would not give you the results if you just make one post a week. Crawlers love sites with quality content and regular submissions. An average submission would be a minimum of 3-4 postings a week. But dun la go make silly postings like a lot of peeps I know, just to make content.

Grammar is also very important if you want to rank well overall. I mean if 'Yr bl0g iz 4 msian r3aders' then by all means, go Malaysian all the way la.

You can take a look at my blog as I try to target international readers more. Some people spend 10-20 minutes making a blog posting. In my case, I spend up to 3-4 hours doing it because I try to avoid spelling errors, grammar mistakes and so on. By the way, I only started my blog in June of 09. It is now Dec 09.

Blog Aggregators are a great way of promoting your blogs. Here are some of the known ones in no order;

thanks for the links. blogged.my is the best so far coz only need to click ping button for submitting articles. any other suggestions for social bookmarks that auto post up our article whenever we updated our blog? It is too troublesome to submit article by entering url, topic, brief description etc whenever submitting articles. thanks.

I realized something about Google result listing..

Sometimes the web that rank high is just a static web that rarely have new content.

So how they do it?

This is what I think..

1. Frequently Update the same pages
- have you realized, although some of your pages list high in Google, it will not stay there forever. It will be replaced by other fresh story. However that's differ from a pages that constantly updated.

2. Keyword density
- sometimes when a blog just write anything other than its niche, this will make the keyword density for the blog decrease. By limiting pages, keyword density can be assured to be maintain.

That's just my opinion...

might not be able to answer all but i'll try my best:-
1. Wordpress have very nice available themes you can get out there but i don't find it as user friendly as compared to Blogger. Never really get my hands dirty with Wordpress, i believe they used to charge $$ if u want to edit the .css (theme template) of the theme. Somehow with Blogger I can do pretty much alot and there are quite a number of converted Wordpress to Blogger themes too.

2. What do u mean by free hosting? u mean those hosting with 'x' GB HDD space? Do u really need those? Currently Blogger/Wordpress offers free blogging hosting and i kinda like to keep it in the cloud, feels safer....like mine I purchased a domain, e.g. dailyboutique.com and set it to point to Blogger's platform ... so indirectly its still free and running behind Blogger wink.gif

3. Hmmm sorry can't help much since its wordpress...

4. Search Engine Optimization, try googling about it and u'll get alot of info...in a nutshell, its how to optimize ur blog/site for search engine to index it so that it'll appear higher in terms of page rank, better accuracy, etc.

5. Shoutout box? I believe there are few out there, e.g. cbox.ws is one of them...just copy the html code and embed it into ur sidebar...

6. Gotta check with wordpress users...might need to pay additional for changing to other themes or might need to pay to edit the .css

7. Nuffnang is our local ads aggregator, they display localized ads mainly from Malaysia. I believe to quality for Nuffnang, u might need to have at least 10-20 unique visitors per day before they assign ads to ur blog...

8. It's best to always check the HTML code...cuz the HTML code will never lie...at times the editor will convert certain things wrongly for u...for e.g. they might add alot of break spaces...best is to verify the HTML...

Hi

before I begin Most importantly you must understand that a FREE wordpress is very limited as compared to a paid or self hosted wordpress.

1) I have personally use Blogger and Wordpress. If you do not intend to spend any money on getting your own domain name & Hosting, I would highly recommend blogger as the free wordpress is truly limited. You cant do much Css editing and you cant use Javascript.
2) Free hosting is indeed limited for Wordpress, Blogger is IMHO best free blogging platform. If however you do intend to get a self hosted blog, Wordpress is the best with all the great plugins Available
3) Your having problems upgrading? I am not entirely sure what you mean by this but to upgrade free wordpress there will be a charge
4) SEO simply stands for Search Engine Optimization- SEO is used to rank higher on the search engine for a particular keywords. For example if you want to rank high for say " Digital cameras" you will do alot of SEO on your blog to be on the first page of Google. SEO itself is a broad topic but the general idea i sto get ranked as high as you can on the search engines
5) To add a shoutbox, you can simply just google for it and be brought to a site where you can "copy the HTML code" and paste it in your blog "sidebars" for example
6) For a free wordpress blog you have limited themes to choose from, about 70 themes to choose from if im not mistaken. If you make a search for wordpress themes online most of the themes are for Self hosted Wordpress blogs.
7) Nuffnang is simply an ad network, you can earn money when you have nuffnang in your blog whenever someone clicks, however nuffnang like other ad companies take statistics from your blog and analyze your clicks. They will be able to tell if you are commiting click fraud.
8) I am not too sure on this

- hope this helps

Brandon

Only dofollow link is providing PR juice to you.
So, first at all, you need to get a SEO ad-on, suggest to use either seoquake or searchstatus which is good to use for dofollow/nofollow checking
The fastest way to get link is through link trade. However, there are some other ways such as blog commenting, forum posting, article submission, directory submission etc is all useful from link building

Good Content, even just 1 good content in your entire blog is enough to bring in stable traffic for years.

If you are not good with adsense, it will only burn you a hole in your pocket. Not worth the money spend on the extra traffic.

The most common and effective way to increase population of your site/blog/forum

1. Articles directories submission
2. Directories submission
3. Link exchange
4. Do follow signature link from forum
5. Do follow comments link from other blog
6. 100% unique content, and include your keywords as anchor text.
7. Video marketing
8. Yahoo Answer ( Answer according to the question which related to your niche)
9. Social bookmarking.

and as for the seo plugin for wordpress, it is pretty simple as you just need to activate it and put your title, description and keyword at each of your post. Do not include keywords which irrelevant to your site cause you might get penalty from google. Moreover, quality content and strong backlink is needed so you won't face google sandbox effect.

Any Pm is welcome if you have any question to ask, thanks brows.gif

- Where can i find directories submission?

Yeap, no doubt bout it , content is king and the soul of the web but think about it, how many people are doing/writing the same niche/topic with you, without a strong and quality backlink, it is impossible to get into top 1000 in google SERP.
So a tips for people who want to get more traffic to their blog.

1. Post at least 2-5 comments on related niche dofollow's blog.
2. Post at least 2-5 reply to dofollow's forum, the best is niche related.

P/s : Do include your keyword as anchor text, for example if you keyword is money, you could try put money/money face/money lover as your name to post comments.

You can see significant result in a week.

even awstats is not as accurate as Google Analytics because AWstats does not differetiate between human and non-human visitors.

I want to share my experiment with Facebook ads. Hope it will give you some idea.

Why I decided to try Facebook ads.
1. Curiosity. I want to see the power of advertising with my own eyes.
2. I have a little money to spare.
3. I want some traffic. laugh.gif

How it turns out.
At first I decided to spend $15 which is equivalent to RM46. I choose CPM ads, which means I have to pay based on impressions, not clicks. The ads was targeted at a very specific group, relevant to my page. But the number of users in that group is very small, only about 50k. Facebook suggest me to bid around $0.20~0.40 for every 1000 impressions. I choose $0.20, the cheapest one. Surprisingly, after the ads is up and running, I only need to pay about $0.06 for every 1000 impressions. I get 120k impressions and need to pay only $7.80. From that 120k impressions, 1000 people click my ads, which gives me 0.83% CTR (click through rate).

I don't know about you, but I think it's really worth it. $7.80 for 1000 clicks is equivalent to $0.0078 per click. Only 2.4 sen for each click! Out of those who click my ads, about 90% of them "like" my pages. I did some experiment with other ads too (broader target group), and in 2 days, I've reached my budget limit (RM46). For that amount, I've got 1200 new followers on my Facebook page. Would've get around 1500~1600 followers if I didn't do the other ads, since broader target group gives me very low CTR (0.15%). doh.gif

It's a worthy experiment. For less than RM50, I have the potential to get 1500 fans. If 10% of them check my blog everyday, that would give me 150 unique visitors. I know it's not much, but for a blog which is less than a month old, that is a decent number. And that 1500 fans might bring their friend as well, giving you a new follower for free. Right now my ads have stopped, but the followers are increasing at the rate of 1~2 follower per hour. Slow, but free. tongue.gif

What I've learned.
1. Facebook ads are cheaper than what is written ($0.06 per 1000 impressions instead of $0.20).
2. Choose your target group carefully. It will save you money and give better result.

If you're somewhat a one month old new blog,
and you're kinda new to blogosphere.

1. Spend more time on contents, you'll need the practice.
2. make sure you have contents 2 days ahead.
3. Regular posting.

then after, you can proceed with internet marketing, SEO and so on.
no point having ppl to come over to your empty shell

Hi my fellow bloggers!

I'm about to tell you a tip that so far as I've searched online, NO ONE has shared it publicly BUT it's fu*king effective!
And it's not a spam and it'll drive thousands of non-bots, HIGH quality readers to your blog!


Read on!

The secret is the power of expectation. Let's say that you're a football blogger and the finals of the World Cup is 3 weeks away. It is VERY safe to say that on the day of the finals itself and the day after, there'll be a HUMUNGOUS surge of people Googling "World Cup 2010 Winner". Now, at this time, there will be very few pages that contain those keywords. Why? Because the winner results are not out yet!!

You can take advantage of this fact and get your blog up on the 1st page of Google Search BEFORE the high pagerank sites start writing about it!

So now, 3 weeks from the finals, start a post and name it "World Cup 2010 Winner". Yes, you can't predict the future BUT you can write a buffer message. Here's an example of one. http://www.fabodylous.com/2000/09/mr-olymp...10-results.html

Then now, what you have to do is to get as many backlinks as possible for THAT SPECIFIC PAGE. Remember, Google ranks each page and subpage by itself. So make the links go directly to that POST PAGE, not your blog's main page. The more backlinks and traffic that page gets, the higher it'll rank in Google Search.

And if you can't figure it out yet, I'm writing a bodybuilding and fitness blog and I'm using this tactic right now for the coming Mr Olympia 2010 (which is like, the FIFA world cup of bodybuilding).

If you think this tip is helpful, please help me too! Click on this link, KEEP THE TAB OPEN FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, then close it. Oh, bumping this thread is helpful too. smile.gif - http://www.fabodylous.com/2000/09/mr-olymp...10-results.html

Here's an insight of my success in optimizing that page so far.

This is a very recent update because I found out that Google just crawled the web yesterday (17th Sep).

Here's for the keyword

Mr Olympia 2010 - I'm in the 2nd page

Mr Olympia 2010 predictions - 1st page

Mr Olympia 2010 results - 2nd page (help me bring it to first page!) smile.gif

Yup! I think I agreed with that. I have not been updating my blog for 2 years since 2008 but am still on and off receiving personal messages complimenting the content. I am starting to write again...after much encouragement from these messages.
