    Yeah, well, that's not how you would do today, when you set up a blog. No need to CHMOD .htaccess, and people with little technical knowledge can just install their blog through cPanel with the help of Fantastico.

    You also left out important details about keywords, and that your theme should have a h1-tag as a header for each blog article.

    @Britt - understood the fantastico, but everything else you said the blog seo plugin takes care of that and yes, you have to 777 the .htaccess unless you just put the rewrite rules directly into the access file.

    Ok, guess I could have said:
    Go buy your domain name
    Go to your hosting and install it via fantastico
    Install your plugins and activate them.
    Install your theme activate it.

    Guess thats' easier, but id bet not as effective.
    Thx.

    But adding affiliate links and ads without even having good content base is not advisable at least now on..
    It looks straight away like "make money online" site...

    @Jaiganeshv - Agreed' kind of.... but what if your blog is in the niche of say "Lawn Care" or some other niche that is NOT about making money and you have banners for lets say a "How to take care of your lawn ebook" - or "How to fertilize your lawn" that is a help product about lawn care to help your visitor, not so much on "How to make money", not every blog is about "How to make Money"

    This sounds about right, although I would say to get ranked highly it will take a long time. Google seems to value the age of a website a lot in its ranking algorithm.
