Why Concerned About Your Blog Not Doing Well? Just Relax!!

When you start a blog, you feel quite excited about it. You expect people coming to your blog and comment on your good work. But sometimes it does not happen with some blog. If your blog too falls in this category, you will feel concerned, quite obvious. 
Here is a quick list you must take care of about your blog:
1. Unique, original and informative contents.

3. You can also do Article submissions for your blog.

How Does A Article Exchange Program Works

In reference to my earlier article on Article Exchange Program, http://seo-trends-tricks.blogspot.com/2010/04/articles-exchange.html here are some more facts about this program. 

Article EXCHANGE is a very powerful technique/process, yet it is not used commonly due to ignorance or lack of awareness. But the fact is that this program is quite different in nature. It requires some extra effort from the webmaster. To be successful in this Article Exchange Program, one must have a good hand in HTML scriptingand the article must be of good quality i.e. well written on the given topic. The benefit you will get from this is exceptional.

When you write a article on a given topic or a website's business, the other webmaster or site owner will ask for that content from you and he will put the article on his website, and in return you will also put his content/article on your website. You must be wondering about the benefits of this exchange. Quite obvious everyone will wonder. So here is the answer - If a search engine crawler finds the article about your website, increases the value of your website in terms of popularity and other SEO inputs. If it found more of such pages, the value will increase more resulting in increasing the Page Rank of your site.  Google takes it as a self written content about your website onto some other website. Google feels that you have good content on your website and the other website owner finds that good and have praised your website. 

But for this it is also very important that you write original and unique contents. Google/Search Engine loves uniqueness in the content. This will also help you in getting a exchange partner, as every body likes good and original content. So write as many articles with unique content and allow webmaster with similar interest to exchange your article. This will help you getting attention of the Search Engine for sure.

Do this article exchange like you do link exchange with other webmaster. Do not go for any paid programs for this as it will be either a paid service or it will be asking some favour from you in return. So do not enter into more complexities, as this program itself will keep you quite busy. Happy Exchanging !!!!!!!

What Is DMOZ?

Dmoz 
http://www.dmoz.com
Ever heard of DMOZ? If you are in the field of SEO and you are well known with some good sites and Tools of SEO, then DMOZ is unknown thing for you. 
Dmoz is the Internet’s one of the largest directory system (over 4 million web sites) and is maintained by human editors(This is why DMOZ is important and links in DMOZ are counted). A web site listing in Dmoz can also be an important part of having a web site rank well in Google, because Google uses Dmoz results in it’s own directory.

Advantages of Dmoz :
Better relevancy than non-human edited directories and search engines.
Do not rank, promote or optimize sites, simply a data provider.
Disadvantages
Abuse by editors (not often)
Can take a long time to have your site reviewed
Tips for submitting your site to Dmoz
Make sure your site has original content and isn’t a clone of
other sites.
Make sure your site is error free and the design layout is easy
to use.
Check for spelling and general mistakes on your site.

Click the Become an Editor link at the top of the category

You will then have to find 2 or 3 sites to add to that category
and explain your reasons why you wish to edit in that category.
Facts about Dmoz

4,529,282 sites

over 590,000 categories
The one very important thing in using DMOZ services is that it takes long to get a site listed into DMOZ. Usually any directory service takes a maximum of 6 months time for approving your listing. But in DMOZ this time may exceed more. But once a site is listed in DMOZ, it is a great achievement for the site. Please read the dmoz submission guidlines properly before submitting your listing. Check that whether your site is listavle or not. Also check whether it is already listed. And also choose a single best category for your site in dmoz from the strong list of 590,000 categories and sub-categories.
Try not to fall in trap of such people who claim to list your site in bloody two - three days. It is not possible to do this by any green SEO method. And I personally do not trust on black hat techniques for SEO.
