Quick Blogging Tutorial on Traffic!

Aside from the everyday questions about creating a blog, like hosting and registration, visitors should be your top priority. To get these visitors, there are many tactics but appearing in the organic results is the best. To appear there you have to follow a few simple steps.

Indexing is easy and important!

In applications designed for beginner users, like WordPress, you simply click a radio button in the back office and all the major search engines will be cleared to access and assess your blog. A suggestion on increasing the attractiveness of your blog to the search engines is to use a ping controlling plug-in. There are many free ones out there so just do some research and choose one. 

These control the number of pings your blog sends to the search engines when you edit or publish a post. This will keep you in good standing with them. Otherwise your blog may be seen as spamming the search engines with excessive pings, which probably is not your intent.

Can Ad-sense be used to attract Google's attention?

Yes, but not in the way you probably think. Putting ad-sense on your blog simply registers it with Google, and hopefully makes you some money. Being on their watch list helps your site get indexed and keeps the crawler coming back periodically to check for compliance if nothing else.

Using other ad services on your site works just as well, but may not get the attention of Google. You can always use a conglomerate of search engine ads so that you do maximize your exposure to them. Since the ad-sense ads are completely under your control you can choose to put ads on that do not compete with your goods or services. You can also decide what ad topic is displayed so that the ads may augment your content in an indirect, but easy to set up way.
