I want to try using Blogger Blogs and take a break from Word Press.

Are BB's "seo/search engine friendly" like WP?


Any tips/tricks that you use for ranking your Blogger Blogs?

    Thanks.....I'll be sure to do that.

    Hello,



    hey may be this information will help you. It's no secret that blogs are great for helping to boost your seo rankings. You can use a blog to get a new site ranked quickly and ahead of your main site if you are dedicated to posting on a frequent basis.

    While the main goal of your blog may be to express your thoughts, talk back to your customers or as a vehicle to promote your product or services, there is another critical element to blogging.

    Search Engine Optimization & Marketing.

    Because of the frequency of active blogs (daily - or at least 5 times a week) the search engines have put high weight on blogs that are focused and tend to stay on topic.

    It's the freshness of content (in a perfect world) that a search engine is craving and rewarding to the blogs. The ideal situation is that the blog would provide for tiny snippets of information that over time build up to a greater whole. (Almost like a blook)

    But the most overloooked element of a blog is that once you've established a frequent pattern of posting and you have the Googlebot coming to your site every few days, you can then use that to link to other sites, sub-domains or any deep links that you need to get crawled. While most blog postings may not have direct links to any sites in particular, you could always format your blog with some permanent links on the side.

    Another mistake made by the amatuer blogger is that they don't realize that you can optimize your blog. True, most blogs only have a few areas, namely the "home" page and the "archive" page. But depending on the tool being used to post the blog, there are some places where you can take advantage seo-wise.

    The title of your blog should be thought of as a headline - grab the reader's attention - but also be sure that your blog title is also what gets archived - that way your titles can become search queries as well.

    While the main objective of a blog should be to get your message out, don't forget to take a little time for SEO and you should see your efforts payoff in the search engine results pages.



    thanks!!

        It doesn't tell me all I need to know...

        I have several blogger blogs and they do well. Just because some people have had blogs removed does not mean it is the end of the world.

          If you mean do they get traffic? Sure. Unique content + links = traffic. Regardless of the web 2.0 property your content is on. I wouldn't plan on cracking any high comp keywords though. hehe

    All my 100+ Xfactor sites are Blogger blogs and they rank well. The blogging platform does not matter. What matters is your H1 tag, title tag, inbound links, etc.
