Blogs are fast becoming the SEO tool of choice by
many webmasters. Why? Content. Search engines love content. The more
content your blog can provide on a steady basis, the better your
ability to increase traffic. Blogs are easy to start and anyone can for
more effective SEO management.
What content do you place in your blog? You can place any useful
information or articles about your product or service. If, for example,
you are a wedding planner, you should write about tips future brides
may not be aware of in relation to planning their wedding. You might
talk about wedding scams, catering faux pas, honeymoon hotspots etc...
Let the readers know you have something more to offer then just a
simple service. People who feel comfortable about a person or
organization are far more likely to buy from them. Let your readers
know who you are and what you are capable of doing for them.
Now that you have your content, you need to get it into the reader’s
hands. The advantage of using a blog is that you can syndicate your
content. Rich Site Summary or RSS is a format used to syndicate your
content instantly. In other words, people can have your content posted
on their web site or sent to their email. Most blog sites will give you
your own special URL to submit to sites that syndicate content. These
sites will then contact your URL for the content. The more you update
your site the more your site will be indexed or PINGED by RSS feeds. To
help ensure your RSS feed is being indexed, enter the RSS tag into the
of your site. Just enter your site title and the URL with your special
URL for RSS. This and other tags can be used in most blogs. Take
advantage of them.
Creating a blog will allow your content to be syndicated which in turn
will increase traffic to your web site as well as build your link
popularity through RSS and blog directories. This will give you and
your products or services recognition. The knowledge and personal
insights that you share will help build your business and your customer
relations. The RSS feeds and blog directories will also help build your
page rank on search engines. Blogs have all the ingredients to be one
of the best free advertising tools the Internet has to offer. Why
aren’t you taking advantage?
