Blogging and SEO

Are you blogging? Do you own a business? Did you know that blogging can help your site become more active with viewers?

How?

Blogging can help you increase the activity of your website by selecting specific keywords and linking them to your site. This is what I do with every one of my posts. I am always creating "tags" and live links to my www.reddingseo.com. I want to make sure that the keywords I'm focused on are in line with getting a first page ranking.

In the beginning my reddingseo.com was listed on the first page for the keyword search term, "Redding SEO". The other two keywords I have been working on are, "Redding search engine optimization" and "Redding search engine services".

If you type in redding seo, redding seo blog, and redding search engine optimization into Google's search box you should find all three of those terms on page 2 for the most part. The first two keywords are on the first page almost all the time, the third is on page 2 most of the time.

My second site, the Pond Ideas website has many first page keyword listings. It receives daily clicks from Adsense. My third site about reverse mortgages has the first page listing for the main keyword I've targeted.

With proper SEO you can gain traffic to your sites. I'll be listing a new site soon...

Until next time,

Okay, today is Dec. 30th, but I'm not actually going to post this until Dec 31st. I've already posted several times today and I don't want the search engines to consider it spamming so it's going to have to wait.

So, I now know where my new site is "listed" in Google's results. Waaaaaaaaay into the results on page 13 I think it is, you'll see it. It's about 125 right now. But, this is only the 2cd actual day so let's give Google a few days to sort things out.

I'll keep checking to see how things move along.

Talk to you soon,

Submitting a Google Sitemap

Tonight I uploaded my new site, www.reversemortgageproscons.com Including adding the URL and site map to Google. In addition to this I've written an article specifically for that site and submitted it to a few article directories. This is one of the faster ways of getting listed in Google.

Today is Dec. 27th, and I uploaded my site at about 5:00 pm. I'll be checking daily to see when it appears in Google. My reddingseo.com site took 6 days. Although I neglected to check on the 5th day, but I'm happy with 6 days. However, I'm going to see if I can get this site in a little quicker using a few other techniques.

I'll keep you posted... You can also check yourself by doing a search for reverse mortgage pros cons in Google. That is if you catch this post before it's actually in Google. You have about 3 days to catch it unlisted. :P

See you soon,
