What is the first steps of a good blog?

wow. thats great to have that many already. i dont think i could even get that. i've never done a blog except on myspace where you dont get paid. but i would think you would have to have a lot of good friends that you exchange the favor with just like on here?

Whilst search engines will naturally find your content over time, there is no harm in submitting it to them as one of the first steps when trying to get good traffic. What I would also suggest is to learn all about SEO that is keywords, catchy titles etc etc as then when search engines do find your content you have a better chance of getting it found by people searching the net. But most importantly get out there and get yourself known within your niche. So if you find an interesting article on someone else’s blog within your niche leave a relevant comment and a link back to your site. Do the same with forums within your niche but always make sure your contributions are helpful and not just spam. I would also suggest writing articles for other sites such as eZine and hubpages as you can add a link back to your site on there and as these are already established you will get some decent traffic from them. Plus you could always offer to write a guest post for another more established blog, you will get major traffic doing this. One thing I will say is don’t follow any advice which recommends joining a traffic exchange because all you will end up doing is getting people visiting your site for a few seconds and clearing off, only doing it to earn traffic for themselves.

i usually do is blogwalking

There are so many Things yet can be considered : 1. Keyword optimization. 2. Submit to around 1000 Search engines( I have the list) 3. See if you can do SEO like backlinks on other posts. 4. Submit it to blogcatalogs and directories. 5. interact with other bloggers. Cheers Abhijeet www.mytestpartner.info http://eclecticcolors.blogspot.com http://earningforfamily.blogspot.com
