What I was wanting some professional opinions on is how to maximise the effectiveness per blog entry/ article you have written in terms of traffic, recognition, followers/likes(social networking) and mainly backlinks. E.g. I have written a unique, well worded article about bananas. The content is quality, their are a couple of links back to a website of my choosing within it. What next? This is what I know at the moment Upload Blog Post to my Blog/Website Share on twitter Add to social bookmarking websites ping the blog post about the blog post and link to from forums point people from other blogs on the same topic to the blog post submit to article submission websites make sure there is a share option on the bottom of the blog post for users email contact list, friends etc to read and comment Please could someone either give me other ideas? or Expand further on ideas I have already have? Thanks
You should some Rss feed submission and try to create good Link whiles among them it can boost up you visibility.
Thanks for reply, Any further points? What I would like to do is build up abit of a checklist of websites, social bookmarking, pinging, twitter etc etc of things I need to do for every blog post I do. Anyone got that kind of idea list?
Well just sticking to that list will be a hard task. Focus on what you are doing at the moment AND try to raise the quality of it even more. Too much is like not enough. Dearly, fdamours
If your competitors are posting on their blog regularly and you don't have one, you do not have a chance to attain that top search engine placement on Page One. Content is king when it comes to algorithmic calculations for page rank and a blog is the way to always add more quality content.
I know this, and I am under no false impression for the search engine ranking. What I was asking is tools, ideas and tips for promoting a blog post.
If you update your blog with the latest news, you can also submit your blog post to some press release websites.
In My point of view create Link wheel with your content that will give you maximum benefit of your quality content
@pavanseo: Do you mean link my blog posts to each other in some relevant way? I think I wil start a "To-Do List on adding a blog post!" on here Anyone got any other ideas? Please copy the list and edit/expand upon it so we can build up a good list. Include individual website addresses too!
