Advice to Bloggers #3

Notice

This post was auto-translated with Google Translate, and I will proofread it in the upcoming weeks.
This post is over 5 years old, and may not reflect the author’s current view.

It’s been a while since the previous bloggers advice post, but finally our article is ready. Like the previous article, again, recommendations are from Google, comments are from me. I hope it will be useful to those in the blog world, we can move on to advice and comments.

Identify Your Audience and Focus

In short, have a harmony of the articles/categories that you publish on your site. Try not to write in too many different categories. Of course, this may change according to the principles of the site. For example, on a site where everything related to iOS is shared, health articles may be useless, but interesting technology news that is not about iOS may not stand out.

Sometimes there are discussions on the forum. So many different topics should not be on one site, etc. I don’t think so, a person who has a personal site can also tell about an event he has seen, if he has WordPress, he can publish articles from this category. I think it should be natural, but as I said, it depends on the principles of the site.

The article got a little messy, to wrap it up, keep track of who reads your articles and who likes them. Analyze them and try to produce content accordingly. In order to analyze this information, you can use the wp-polls plugin, which is a wordpress survey plugin.

Add Signatures to Your Emails

Have you noticed that some e-mails that come to your e-mail inbox have a signature section? Or did you know it has a signature section? Since we are people who at least exchange e-mails several times a day, putting your site, logo or slogan on such a signature will give you a nice prestige and can be a good hit source for you.

Submit Your Site in Blog Search Sites and Directories

Although I did not apply it for myself, I think that I should pass it on to you because I have seen this advice. I invite you to talk about these directories in the comments section. Do you think directory sites still matter?

Discussion: Does registering with DMOZ or other directories have a noticeable effect? Are directory registration processes necessary or unnecessary in SEO packages? Are backlink values ​​significant?

Since I open the subject for discussion, I prefer to write the necessary information in the comments. So that’s all I’m going to write about this item.

Actively Comment

It is mentioned that we should make a habit of commenting after reading a content, especially if we have benefited from that article. I also recommend that you do not remove the site section in the comments section. If I keep the site link when you comment on my site (except for those who put the keyword in my eyes), you need to add the link section to the comment panel and keep the links. If your comments are of high quality after some time has passed from such comments, you will see that there is a stream of hits from the sites you comment on. You will also gain nofollow backlinks, which is also important.

Set Your Blog to Ping

The purpose here is to ensure that the content you wrote originally is not stolen by another site. Even if it is stolen, yours will enter the ranking because you will be indexed first by Google. Of course, if we try to explain Google anyway, this article will not end. Since index speed is an important factor, if you are entering three or five content in a week, try to do it manually or automatically. Theft of content is a really bad situation, I have not observed such a thing for my own site at the moment, but there are those who spin, it seems like 😀 Giving them a link from here will not kill you.

Recommendations from Google to bloggers were close to 1000 words, together with the recommendations in the first post. Thank you to those who read patiently, I look forward to your comments and shares.
