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.
