    Hi Guys, I had created this list for personal use/client work and felt to put it online on my site so others can also take it as reference. You can check it at SEO TIps section to get the Full content as It won't be possible for me to manually copy paste 70+ pages here.

    The list is very much complete but I will try to add weekly some content into it. You are also welcome to add your pointers as comments, either in the list or here. I will be more than happy to link back to your site if your point gets included.

    This is a great post, it's a shame a lot doesn't apply to building my Forum. I want to start a blog but I don't have the confidence in it to keep it interesting and alive.

    I am sorry but I couldn't get you. If you are talking about starting a blog and worried that you won't be able to manage it, that's totally true. Most of the blogs get started with lot of promises but dies out in 4 months time. The reason is, the owner starts putting way too much effort in it and when they don't see much result, they feel like, Huh..lets leave it.

    Blogs are like swiss knife and can be used with great effect. You don't have to post in them regularly, 2 decent posts a week will also work. Don't make them too personal though, stick to your niche. :)

    I am adding some more resources to the list in a day's time. Will again updated you guys when it is done.

    Cheers
