Have you noticed a change in the amount of traffic to your website recently? Have you noticed a decline in your search engine rankings? Then maybe you have lost your Google Rankings.
I lost my Google Rankings late last year and I can tell you I was not comfortable(or maybe a little bit comfortable because i have other traffic sources), it became worse to the extent of me not ranking for my website name(this is worse you say!).
It is very discouraging to loose your Google Rankings and this applies both to the new blogger and the established ones.

Setting up a blog is something anyone can do. Using the latest software like WordPress, Joomla or others will allow you to create a blog on the fly. I am the living proof that it is easy. But the trickiest part comes once you have created a blog, then what? I started my blog out of an impulse, when my blog was online I had no content and also no idea what to do next. Maybe my experience can be helpful for all the other newbie bloggers, so they can grasp the idea of what they have to think of and what they can expect.
There you are, admiring your newly created blog… Everything is set, you are ready to write your first article. But Hold On! Are you sure everything is in order? Have you considered your layout, are all the metatags in order, did you submitted your URL to search engines? Ever considered SEO (Search Engine Optimization)… and most importantly, do you have a play area?

Keyword Research is one of the main aspects on which an internet marketer has to focus on. Not only Internet Marketers but also blog/website owners should do little bit keyword research and spy on other competitor’s blog time to time in order to get traffic flowing from search engines.
How would you like to get a list of all keywords for which your competitor’s website is ranking on search engines and receives traffic? How would you like a website tracking changes of your website for a keyword without even registering? Also, how would you like to compare your blog with your competitor’s blog to know for what keyword you rank better and for what your competitors does?

Each and everyone who owns a blog definitely wants to build an audience towards the brand of their own. And of course, we want to spread it and have it exposed to as much people as possible. Since millions of new blogs are created every day, it’s an uphill battle for us, bloggers to spread our own and stand out from the rest.
But we should never get worried. Obviously most of the blogs are just junk blogs, either blogs who are just created for SEO benefits or blogs that are created by inexperienced bloggers. Overall we still have a good chance of getting recognized, acquiring new readers and reaping good benefits for spreading our brand.

Since the beginning of time there has always been an evil to match every good. Hercules had Hades, Mufasa had Scar, and of course ….. Luke Skywalker had Darth Vader. Now I’m sure you’ve heard the quote “History Repeats Itself“, well that’s exactly the case for bloggers.
“For every great blog out there, there is a spammer just waiting to pounce on it.”
Well luckily for bloggers, we can actually use spam as a weapon against itself. The one major flaw to spam is that it is VERY easy to spot. Just like anyone in life who is a fake, your natural human instinct can figure them out really quick. So just by being considerate, engaging, and “real”, we can actually stand out of the crowd and get some serious exposure.
