Basic Blog SEO Tips
Posted on Mar 12, 2009by Lori Dicker
Need some helpful SEO tips for your blog? Check out these four basic tricks:
Categories — when you are adding a post to a category, pick one category. Putting a post in more than one category creates duplicate content and search engines will think you wrote the same thing multiple times.- Tags – use as many possible to describe the content. Always use names, places, events, etc. if they are relevant. When you publish it, it will cross reference with those names/etc.
- Page Title– 60 characters or less. Be descriptive and tight, anything beyond that is dropped.
- Description — 160 characters or less. Make sure your title words are repeated in your description. It ranks better and weighs heavier. Also make sure that the URL reads with words in the title and description.
Aside from these four basic guidelines, there are many more ways to get your voice heard by building awareness and word of mouth around your blog. Stay tuned for more from KML…








Are you a professional journalist? You write very well.
I started twitter a few months ago, since then I’ve begun to love it. When I started I hated Twitter it’s allowed me to network with people in my industry alot easier. News and updates happen in right away which makes for a great user experience.
Thanks!
