Update meta tags and blog post url

Having a blog is not important, maintaining and managing your blog, and getting good traffic creates matter. If you use blogger like I do, you should update your Meta tags once in a month. I know sometimes we feel lazy and just let it as it is... I agree that a search engine does not consider Meta keywords tag in ranking calculations and it’s never seen by visitors, but don’t forgot the Meta description tag is visible beneath listings in SERPs.

Your title tags plays a vital role when it comes to Search Engine Results Page (SERPs) so insert some targeted keyword in title tags. It is true that Google does rank dynamic urls as long as you don’t have too many parameters and your parameters don’t look like session variables.

Keyword specific domains and sub domains rank high in search engine algorithm. Search engines look for keywords because of this the keyword in the url suggests that the site contents are related to the keyword. Even visitors like to click the link that contains relevant keywords when they look search results. If suppose you have chosen some other keyword, like I used my name in my blog url so we have other option like BLOG POST URL. Just keep in mind and ensure that keywords should appear in each and every post.


I find some tricks to get good organic search result.

Under Settings -> Archiving, if you have selected “Yes” to “Enable Post Pages”, each of your posts will have a unique web page. Blogger automatically generates the Post URL based on the Title of the Post. The title follows a fixed format:-

http://blogname.blogspot.com/2007/09/post-title.html

There is a limit to the number of characters in the URL. Let's assume you have written a Post about Optimising your website or blog and happily called it “How to optimize your blog and website in easy and seo friendly way.”

Once the Post is published, the Post URL may look like this:-

http://blogname.blogspot.com/2007/09/how-to-optimize-your-blog-and-website-in-easy-and-seo-friendly-way.html

Based on what we said about SEO, you may get hits from people who want to find out about optimising a website. This is vastly different from your intended visitor profile. One way to get around it is to give the Blog Post a Title that contains the necessary keywords. For instance, name it “Seo Friendly Website and Tips.” Publish your Post and the Post URL will be something like:-

http://blogname.blogspot.com/2007/09/seo-friendly-website-and-tips.html

After the Post is published, go back to edit the Post and change the title. You can have a fanciful and yet relevant Post Title. Republish your Post. Even though the Title is changed, the Post URL will remain the same. However, the title that appears in the feed and search engine index will be the new edited title. In a way, you have the best of worlds, a title that you like and a Post URL that contains the keywords for search engine optimization.
That and a good backlink campaign is all you need.

Google's New META tag

It’s great news for all Search Engine Optimizer. Previously I discussed the Webpage removal tool, but that was for dead link/broken link. This is some how same but different with each other.
Got confused..? Will clear..!!!



Google’s a new META tag which allows us to put in the picture, when a page supposed to be removed from the main Google web search results: the aptly named unavailable_after tag.

For example, to specify that an HTML page should be removed from the search results after 3pm Eastern Standard Time on 25th August 2007; simply add the following tag to the first section of the page:

<META NAME="GOOGLEBOT" CONTENT="unavailable_after: 25-Aug-2007 15:00:00 EST">

This META tag is treated as a taking away request: it will take about a day after the removal date passes for the page to disappear from the search results. Google currently only support unavailable_after for Google web search results.

Starting of the post I told you that this update is different from the webpage removal tool because with the help of these tag we can remove the page from the Google web search but cant delete from there system. So for deleting the page we have to go thru Webmaster tool…

I have few doubt about on this update like instead of GoogleBot can we include other search engines name. I hope that option will also presented soon from all Search Engine’s.

Search engine optimizer tips to get high page rank

Focus on high quality back links, that mean back links from a high PR site than yours, site related to your blogs/website category, site with no bad neighborhood, check there age, check whether they having spammy title tags.

Now brush up the Meta tags. Don’t repeat keywords, use target relevant keywords. We can write the Meta tags in the settings I mean blogger users. Search Engine Optimization tools is there to search good relevant keywords.

ALT tags are also important so add ALT tags to each and every image but blogger user no need to worry by default it takes the ALT tags. Yesterday I was finding the way to put our own ALT tag title but couldn’t found any solution, so if anybody knows how to insert our own tags in ALT tags (I mean for blogger user) then please comment me.

I have seen people use to keep Blog Roll Links, In my opinion don’t keep blog roll links although if you want to keep then maintain a small list of blog roll.
Work on keyword, check the keyword density this will help you a lot.
