I am creating a blog. I just want to ask that how to do seo for the blog ? How to promote it ? I have never seen a decent blog while searching (normal search as well as blog search).
Well first install the SEO WP Plugin. Then write amazing content and use social networks to promote it. If the content is good enough then other people will promote it for you.
