First of all what is search engine optimization? Wikipedia defines search engine optimization as “the process of improving the volume or quality of traffic to a site from search engines through ‘natural’ search results.”
Your blog essentially is a website. like all sites if you are wanting to earn money with it you need to increase your traffic. One way you can do this is through search engine optimization.
Before you begin optimizing your blog for the search engines you need to ask yourself what types of visitors do you want to target? If your target audience is parents for example, what are some popular topics that parents search for on Google? The terms that you come up with will be your essential words. write down all these essential words because they will be important.
Next identify which essential word is what we call your primary essential word. This will be the overall theme of your blog. For healthy mothers our primary essential word is “Moms.” Make sure your blog includes that primary keyword phrase in the title. All the other keywords that you came up with can be used in sub domains. To guarantee that those keywords are in your sub domains make sure you place them in your post titles. For example if one of your essential words is “potty training” a title of one of your messages could be, “Potty training suggestions for busy Moms.”
The sub domain of that post would look something like this: If your blog is hosted on blogger long titles will be shortened so be sure to place your keyword phrase at the beginning of your title.

Now you are ready to optimize your blogs post or what I like to refer to as your article. I like to use this useful totally free essential word tool from Word Tracker.
This tool will help you to identify what your secondary essential words will be. first type in your primary keyword, that is the keyword phrase that is in the title of your article, then click hit me. here is a list of keywords that are related to the term potty training. next to that keyword phrase you will find how numerous times a month (on average) that term is searched.
It looks like potty training young boys is second on the list. next we will check out Google and do a search on our own. We want our short article to appear on the front page of Google. When we type in “potty training boys” in Google we come up with 211,000 results. Anything below 300,000 is pretty good. That implies that you don’t have as much competition.
I would include an paragraph in your short article about potty training boys. You could even make the term bold and use it as a headline for the paragraph. Something like this:
Potty training Boys
Potty training young boys can be much much more challenging than potty training girls. They can in some cases take a lot longer to train than their female counterparts…If the other terms that came up in word tracker are relevant to your short article you can go ahead and repeat the process with those words.
Okay so now you optimized your articles for the search engines but when you search for those terms yourself your blog still doesn’t appear on the front page of Google. now what? You need to get high quality back links to your site. What the heck are back links? Back links are simply one way links to your website. This will also improve your Technorati ranking.

One way to obtain these links is to check out as numerous blog directories as possible and submit your blog. numerous of these directories are totally free and only require that you link back to them. another way you can get links is by having blogs with a similar theme to yours link back to you. I like to check out Google blog search and search for blogs using my main keyword. (This is the keyword phrase found in the title of your blog)
Then you need to contact these bloggers and become their friend. One way to do this is sending them a note saying that you delight in reading their blog and your blog is very similar so you were wondering if they could add your blog to their blog roll. You could also request a link exchange or if youare really wanting to increase your traffic offer to write an short article for the other blogger to publish on his or her blog. Make sure when you send the e mail to the other blogger you compliment them on their blog and mention that you are a reader. blogging is all about building relationships.
Make sure you are updating your blog frequently. blogs that are updated a couple times a week or less are typically left behind by the search engines. You ought to make sure you are publishing a new short article at least once a day. If you know that you are going to be busy next Thursday if your blog is hosted by blogger you can schedule an short article to run on that day.
