The popularity contest of blogging and gaining links and traffic doesn’t happen overnight. It takes time and work.
Content is king? Not in the heavily saturated blogosphere. Whatever you choose to present it, someone, somewhere will do it as well or better.
Even legendary martial artist Bruce Lee understood this. While the Little Dragon’s popularity would have earned him a massive following had he lived long enough to blog, you probably don not have that cushion of love.
Copyblogger said you won’t get that love, or the valuable links that feed a blog. not without working it baby.
“Bloggers link more often to their friends than anyone else. If you write a reasonably good piece of content that interests their audience, they’ll link to you, mainly because they like you,” Copyblogger said.
Copyblogger offered some advice on earning this adoration. Some of it seems more reasonable than others, like volunteering to vote up their posts on social media sites versus writing a guest post on a popular blog. Anyone who can get into a popular blog with a quest post probably has enough high-powered friends to get links from them already.
Networking in person, commenting intelligently on their posts online, and conducting an interesting interview of the desired popular blogger offer chances at longer term relationships that could lead to inbound linking and the followers who click them.
Being ignored is not any fun. Neither is hard work, but without the latter, it’s difficult to resolve the former without some ultra-rate bit of serendipity happening for your blog. we think it’s better to depend on the hard work than a fleeting bit of good fortune.

Six Steps SEO Guide for Beginners
Many site or blog owners or first time webmasters often overlook the most common mistakes when it comes to Search Engine Optimization of their website or blog. By using these six simple steps your site will have the most common area designed to meet ranking standards for the major search engines.
1. Avoid the use of Flash and DHTML navigation menus and buttons. These require additional code that often makes it impossible for the search engine spiders to find all of your pages. This will kill your ranking potential. Use natural text menus. This will insure that all of your pages are crawled, and will allow you to use keywords in your “alt” text.
2. Don’t use frames pages. The search engine spiders will not be able to index all of the pages that are part of the frame and your site’s crawl will not be complete. The use of includes pages will guarantee that all of your pages will be crawled and indexed.
3. Avoid the use of internal scripting, such as java and other languages. This practice requires more time for the search engine spiders to crawl and index your pages. Whenever possible use external scripts that are placed in your cgi-bin or scripts folder in your web root.
4. Always use the “Robots.txt” file to help the search engine spiders crawl and index your pages faster. Every website has pages, and directories that don’t need to be indexed and crawled, and by creating a “robots.txt” file you can save time in the preparation of your site by adding a single robots Meta tag.
5. Use keyword rich page names. This will enhance the relevant content value of each page on your site or blog by telling the search engine spider that this page relates to the keywords used in the Meta tag data for this page. Additionally, use keywords and phases that are related to each page’s actual content. This practice will add focus to your keywords and keywords rich content.
6. Limit your Meta tag data to only Title, Description, Keywords, and Robots. Most of the other commonly used Meta tags are almost useless to the major search engine spiders, and their inclusion will only serve to slow the indexing process and in some cases actually damage your rankings. Keep your title tag under seventeen characters long, and don’t use stop words. Your site’s description tag shouldn’t be longer than 100 characters long. Only use relevant keywords for each page. Lastly, always use relevant keywords in your page names, titles, and descriptions.

Blog Walking the way I regular Use
Title post is just blog walking, if not especially want to talk about blog walking that has become a trend for the old blogger to find out the latest. In addition to search for valuable information, blogs are also walking normally done only to promote a blog that they have, because as Mr. Arif said yesterday in one of many posts that he haves, a blog walking activities can be trusted increase blog traffic.
I agree with their opinion also above, the blog walking can increase blog traffic. Also believe that once the majority of blog traffic is a result of road and street activities, also from the group that I follow in blogcatalog.com, as seen from the age of the blog is still young also probably not familiar with the search engines, both Google, Yahoo, or msn, then I think at this point may not have visited the blog is one of the three search engines are.
Ok, we return to the main topic. Usually when you first blog created and filled with some articles that I own any posts, I known it to all the people how to blog is with walking, of course the first time I visit the blog is owned by my friend’s and leave comments that are relevant to the topic being discussed. Then I search for blogs that have been good, both in terms of SEO and Google Page Rank.
For a second, this is the blog that is also a good many visitors. To find I usually visit Blog Search and typing keywords that are related is meant to appear has similarities with my blog topic. Next I visit the link are listed on top ten on search engines because blogs area both eyes search engine, also of course have a lot of visitor. So, try it :D

Installing the Adsense Search Box Under Post
Most people install the search box of Google Adsense on the blog’s sidebar. But according to my experience, install the search box on the results is less than the maximum, both at the top of the sidebar especially on the bottom. So that maximum results more, try installing on the bottom of the blog posts so that our visitors more easily find the search box from Google’s Adsense. As for how this can be seen below.
1. Login in to our Google Adsense account and install it Adsense code to search. Select the appropriate language with the language used on our blog.
2. Once completed all the copy and paste the script into the pad editor that we have. We can use the notepad default Microsoft Windows XP or use the editor of the other party. For example use PHP Designer that I post here etc…
3. Parse the script. What the parse? Well, it parses the tags. For example tags < replaced with <, > replaced with >, " replaced with " & replaced with & onwards. We can parse it manually, but certainly very busy. So to make it more easy, just use parse tool here. How, copy all script from Google Adsense earlier in the box and paste it into the box available continuously click Parse. Copy all the script after it’s.
4. As usual, login into our blogger account and heading Layout | Edit HTML. Give the check on Expand template widget, and then find the code below.
<p><data:post.body/></p>
5. If you have found, paste the Adsense script that has been be parsed right under the code <p><data:post.body/></p>
Tips! If we have to use the read more script, then the code is two. Right only the Adsense code under the code <p><data:post.body/></p> the first / top.
6. The last click Save and see the results.
Then, if we want to install the Adsense for Content script under the same post, follow the steps above to stay earlier. Goodbye in next article …
