SEO in Ten Easy Steps

If you are at all serious about succeeding online we highly recommend reading this guide.

<strong>Based on Google's Webmaster Guidelines, these ten fundamentals of Search Engine Optimization really do work.
And... they are easily within reach of most website owners with little or no technical skill.</strong>

Let's get started!


<strong>1. XML Sitemap Submission

Technical Skill Requirement: None
</strong>
Difficulty: Easy

Submitting an XML Sitemap, also know as a Google Sitemap, is the best way of being sure search engines have information about your entire website.

XML Sitemaps have replaced the older technique of "submitting to search engines" by filling out a form on each search engine's submission page. They are are the best, fastest and only guaranteed method of informing search engines about every page of your site.
Your "Get In Google" tool automates Sitemap creation and submission to each search engine. Updating and resubmitting your sitemap on a weekly basis will increase its effectiveness even more.

<strong>2. Building Links

Technical Skill Requirement: None
</strong>
Difficulty: Ranges from Easy to Difficult

One of the most important elements (of the more than 200) that Google considers when ranking your site is the number and quality of links pointing to it. The general idea is that the more sites indicating that your content is valuable by linking to it, the better. As long as these links come from sites deemed to be of quality or authority (high search rank), the better your own search rank will be.

Be very careful about buying links! You can be penalized for participating in most link buying schemes, or having links from sites that Google has blocked, such as sites involved in link selling, sites with malware, or any other activity in violation of Google's guidelines.

A common legitimate link building activity is directory submission. Submission can range from just your name and homepage URL to an extensive business profile. Always make sure any content you post to directories is unique, readable and human friendly. Never submit strings of comma-separated keywords or duplicate content that will be seen as spam.

It is always best to list your site only in the most important, authoritative and reputable directories. Avoid the "list your site in thousands of directories" offers. Most are a waste of time. Not all directories are equal, and many of the directories that some online services offer to post your site to are completely useless, or could even be on Google's black list.

There are many other ways to quickly develop high quality links that work, including: professionally syndicated press releases, syndicated business listing services, submitting articles to or commenting on blogs and forums, starting your own blog, getting local government (.gov), educational (.edu), or business association links by working with those organizations, submitting product reviews and answers on sites like Yahoo! Answers and writing submissions in related forums and user groups.

Another important link building activities is participating in Social Networking activates such as Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter.

However, by far the best way to get quality links to your site is by writing good content. If it's original, informative and interesting people will want to link to. If you haven't got the skill or time necessary to write great keyword focused content and work to get it posted on important sites, check out our Top Listing Program. It's an effective, low-cost alternative to trying to do it all yourself.

<strong>3. Learn a Little Simple Basic HTML

Technical Skill Requirement: Low
</strong>
Difficulty: Low

HTML is a language used by web browsers to dynamically format web pages. Many important SEO techniques require only very simple edits to your site's HTML code. Knowing what to change and how to adjust your HTML code has a huge effect on your SEO and search listings. Don't worry; learning the basics of simple HTML is not difficult. (However, if you are using a web designer or outside web developer to implement these simple changes to your site, keep in mind that they are just that: simple. They should not take too long to complete once you know how to tell them exactly what to do.)

<strong>4. Choose the Right Keywords or Key-Phrases to Target

Technical Skill Requirement: None
</strong>
Difficulty: Easy

Choose two or three highly targeted keywords or key phrases for each page of your site, including your Home Page. (In the next step you will learn how to produce the content of your site based on them)

Choose very carefully because keywords you think might be perfect may not be what people actually search for. For example, never use general keywords such as "travel" or "vacation." Very large, well-known sites usually rank the highest for general words such as these, and are extremely difficult, if not impossible, to out-rank in search listings for these words. You will enjoy much better results by targeting less competitive, more specific and narrowly targeted keywords or phrases.

<strong>5. Create Fresh and Unique Content Using Your Keywords
</strong>
Technical Skill Requirement: None

Difficulty: Low to Moderate

Publishing keyword-rich original content is absolutely crucial to ranking highly. All you need to do is transform your list of carefully selected keywords into pages of unique web content. Write pages of at least 200 words of unique text, incorporating one, two, or at the most three of your chosen keywords into the copy of each page. Your home page may have less content, but should target your most important two or three keywords.

What does unique text mean? It means that you produce original content. It means you haven't simply copied verbatim from other websites or blogs. If you don't have enough of your own ideas about content look at what other have written, then re-write it making it better. You can make it shorter and more concise, or longer and more detailed. Just don't copy it.

Search engines must find and "read" keyword rich copy on your pages so they can properly classify or "index" your site. The frequency (or density) of keyword usage is also important. For best results repeat each keyword or phrase, or variations of the phrase, 2 to 4 times within your copy (depending on its length). Be sure to put it at least once in a headline using the <H1> or <H2> HTML code. More is not better. A higher keyword density than this can often cause search engines to penalizing your site. Never use "invisible text" or text on your Web pages that is the same color as the background. It will also result in search engine penalties.

Placing keywords on your website:

Your website content should be written first for real people, and second for search engine crawlers. For your website to be successful you need to keep both in mind. Keywords are important for both audiences. They help real people skim your page, and help the search engines figure out what your page is about.

Writing marketing copy for your website doesn't need to be difficult and it surely doesn't need to be lengthy. In fact, keep three simple things in mind, along with your keywords, and it'll practically write itself: Benefits, Benefits, Benefits!

Don't just tell the customer you have a great widget at a great price. Tell them what that widget will do to make their lives better, easier, safer, more important. If it saves them time, improves results, etc. - tell them that, and briefly tell them how. Show then the Benefits, not the "features."

Always tell the truth. You can say anything ,but if its intentionally misleading, your profits and your business are going to be short-lived. Make your website copy sizzle, and make it sell, but always make it honest.

Make it personal: all about You and Your. It might not seem like much, but if you can drop ?your? into your copy, it?s sure to draw the customer in, whether they realize it or not.

Before you put up new content on your site, read it and then read it again out loud. If you can, have someone else look it over. There?s nothing worse publishing great copy that?s tarnished by typos.

Nine good places to use your keywords:

1. In your page title. This is what appears at the top of the browser window when someone visits your website. (See step 8 below)

2. In your page description. Visitors don't see this, but the search engines do. This is the two lines of text that appear below the main title in search engine results. (See step 9 below)

3. In your page URL. Use keywords, not strings of alphanumeric characters, in the URLs of each page of your site. Search engines will index them much better and display them higher in search results. Creating page URLs with keywords helps those pages rank higher. Simply insert the linked-to page's targeted keyword phrase into the hyperlink whenever possible. Here is a good example from Allrecipes.com: Allrecipes.com/Recipe/Fettuccini-with-Salsa-Cruda-and-Feta/Detail.aspx

4. In the headings and subheadings. Make it easy for your readers to very quickly see what your page is about by using lots of headings and subheadings.

5. In the first sentence and your first paragraph. Make sure your important keywords appear first -- the earlier, the better.

6. In the last paragraph. Also use your keywords at the end of your content.

7. Elsewhere in the page copy. When keywords fall naturally throughout your article, consider bolding them. But don't go overboard with it or it will become a distraction. However, if it makes the article easier to skim, bold your keywords.

8. In your text links. Instead of linking to words like "click here," use your keywords in your link anchor text.

9. In the ALT tags on images. The search engines can't understand images. With every image, include a bit of text called the ALT tag and use your keywords in that text. (See step 10 below)

<strong>6. Title Tag Optimization</strong>

Technical Skill Requirement: Low

Difficulty: Easy to Moderate

This is what the title tag on Dell.com looks like: <META NAME="TITLE" CONTENT="Dell - Official Website - Learn about Dell's laptops, desktops, monitors, printers plus computer electronics & accessories. ">

HTML title tags are critical because search engines use them when deciding what a web page is about. Using descriptive words and phrases in your Title tags helps both people and search engines better understand the focus of the page. Include your most important keywords in this tag. Space is limited (use a maximum of 69 total characters) so don't include your company name unless you really think it needs to be there (as in our example from Dell). Do not use the Title tag to display irrelevant information such as "Home Page." Think of it more as a "Title Keyword Tag" and include words that users would likely search for to find the product or service or other information on that page.

Lengths of Page Title (taken from your Title Tag) Displayed in Search Engines (including spaces):
Google displays up to 69 characters, Yahoo displays up to 72 characters, Bing displays up to 69 characters

The Title tag is the most important tag to optimize on your webpage because:

Search engines place a lot of importance on the words used in the title tag when determining your page ranking and keyword indexing.
They are used as the title for your search engine results listings, giving a critical "first impression" to search engine users.
They are used as the bookmark heading when someone bookmarks a page in your site.
Good Title Tags Made Simple

Here's a simple method for writing title tags that will boost your rankings:

Start the title with the top keyword or phrase for which you are trying to get high rankings. Be sure that the keyword is well used on your webpage so the Title Tag is clearly relevant to the page as a whole.
Insert a hyphen or double-colon to separate the initial keyword from what comes next to help make the title more readable.
Then describe the webpage in five words or less while using all or part of your target keyword or phrase again.
<strong>7. Description Tag Optimization
</strong>
Technical Skill Requirement: Low

Difficulty: Easy to Moderate

The Meta Description Tag is the next most important tag, since search engines frequently use it as the description for your page's listing. The content in your description tags often appears as the "snippets" of text underneath the blue Title tag headline in search results pages. A well written description tag increases the chance that your search listing will be clicked on.

Here is an example: a keyword search for "big mac" produces the following result as the third organic listings:

By visiting the McDonalds.com home page and viewing the page source, you can see that the snippet above simply reuses the first 149 characters of the page's meta description:

<meta name="description" content="McDonald's in the USA: Food and nutrition info, franchise opportunities, job and career info, restaurant locations, promotional information, history, innovation and more." />

Here is what you should do to optimize your description tags:

Create a unique meta description tag for each page that uses its keywords.
Create "meaty" description tags that accurately describe the page and product to search users and respect the character limits noted below.
Include words that users would most likely search for to find the product, service or information on that page.
Meta Description Lengths Displayed in Search Engines (including spaces) Google displays up to 156 characters Yahoo displays up to 161 characters Bing displays up to 185 characters

Good Description Tags Made Simple Begin the description tag with the same keyword phrase you used in the title tag, followed by a dash or double colon. Then use it to start a sentence describing your webpage in 10 to 15 words.

Here are a few guidelines to follow when writing description tags:
The entire tag should be no longer than 22 words (156 characters).
It should briefly describe the webpage and entice users to click on your listing.
The keyword should be used no more than two times in total.
Here's a simple layout for writing description tags that will boost your rankings:

[Your Keyword or Key Phrase] - [A Brief Description of Page]

If you only have a little time to optimize your site for better search engine rankings, at least write good Title and Description tags. They are a fundamental requirement for improved search ranking.

Note: The Keyword meta tag is not given ANY consideration at all by Google or the other major search engines and should not be used.

<strong>8. Take Advantage of Other Simple HTML Opportunities
</strong>
Technical Skill Requirement: Low

Difficulty: Easy

Don't overlook other HTML code elements to extract a little more love from the search engines. You can boost your rankings and nudge visitors along your "buy path" by providing more information in your HTML code. Here are some of the ways you can easily boost your search engine rankings:

Use text headings (using heading tags <H1><H2><H3>) Text placed within a heading tag is used to briefly describe the topic of the section of a page it introduces. The use of text "heading" tags is important to the user as visual clues, but they are also used to indicate the importance of the words or phrases to the search engines. It allows search engines to make better sense of the words and phrases on the page in a way that changes in font size doesn't. Some sites don't use them because they don't like the way they look, but heading tags can easily be made to look any way you like by including them in your style sheets.

Use Inter-site "anchor text" links Creating keyword-rich internal text links within your site will also help. Use this tactic in moderation as too many links between your pages can actually harm you. Testing has shown good results by creating links between the first 10 pages that you will find listed in.

Google's results when you search for site:www.mydomain.com (simple add "site:" to your home page URL, all as one word, and search for that "combined" word in Google)

Use Image Alt Tags Alt tags (Alternative Text Tags) were developed so that if an image is unavailable, you can still see an alternative text description of it.

However, alt tags are also an additional type of content, in which you can display information to visitors and search engines by using the alt and title attributes, like this: <img src="smilingbaby.gif" alt="Smiling Baby" title="Smiling Baby"/>. Note that search engines will index the both the alt and title content, but usually prefer the title content if available.

<strong>9. Eliminate Broken Links and Error pages
</strong>
Technical Skill Requirement: Low

Difficulty: Easy

Broken links that produce "Page Not Found" error messages are harmful to your site. They reduce search engine crawling efficiency and accuracy, meaning that some of your content may not be listed (or indexed) in search engine databases. They also "dilute" your site's overall search engine rank. Plus, they are one of the easiest ways to lose potential customers. Broken links and error messages create a highly negative and unprofessional impression to visitors, frequently causing them to leave and not return.

We strongly recommend regularly checking your entire site for error pages. Your SEO Tools account includes a broken links report and tool that helps find both the error page URL and all the links to it within your site. Use the tool to remove all internal links to error pages, and then use the solutions below for any possible external links to them.

Create a Custom 404 Error Page A good 404 error page advises visitors that they've hit an invalid URL, and then provides other links to direct help them to their intended destination.

Use 301 Redirects If you move or rename pages, use 301 redirects to automatically transfer them from the old page location to its new permanent home. This redirect is anonymous to your site visitor.

If you can't implement custom 404 pages or 301 redirects, contact your web developer for assistance.

<strong>10. Develop (or Exercise) Patience
</strong>
Technical Skill Requirement: None

Difficulty: Moderate

Don't expect quick results. Using these simple techniques will indeed deliver more traffic from Google and other search engines, but it takes a little time. There's no getting around that fact. Once you start following the steps above, your site's ranking will slowly but surely rise. While you should start seeing results within weeks, big improvements usually requires a little more time and effort. However, these efforts ALWAYS pay off

Take the time to keep implementing the Google Guidelines. Google rewards sites meeting their guidelines with higher placement in search results, and more search traffic.

Softopreneurship in Pakistan – A Lost Opportunity

By Nouman Lodhi
We – Pakistanis – develop software, but we don’t sell it; because we develop these software for Americans and Europeans who ultimately sell them at considerably higher prices.
How wonderful it could get if we develop software and sell them ourselves to earn all the margins and profits to ultimately bring back the entire revenue to our homeland.
Generally Asian countries are considered to be the outsourcing hotspots by IT industry leaders around the world. That is why most companies in Asia are famous for providing IT services to the small, medium and large enterprises mostly located in affluent European countries and in the US.
The companies abroad take huge benefit from the low-cost software made by their outsourcing partners and by selling these software to an unimaginably large internet market.
As a thumbs rule the foreign companies indulge in outsourcing to reduce their costs of doing business and consequently to increase their profits. The IT resource-pool is abundant in India, China, Bangladesh, Pakistan and other countries in the Asian continent. Adept at communicating in English makes things easier for the professionals providing IT and IT-enabled services as English has dominated the world of internet.
However, there is this firm called Sorcim, run by the ‘softopreneurs’ from Pakistan who decided to go on a different route, i.e. product way.
Earlier, known as an IT service provider, today, Sorcim is product-based and explores the dynamics of online market. The software made by the company called RegInOut falls into the system utilities category and helps to boost slow working computers and fix common PC errors such as Windows Registry errors.
The decision to sell product by itself rather than making a product for foreign businesses was a transition in the company’s life. Such transitions are healthy for the businesses and today the IT companies from Pakistan shall try to either penetrate into global online markets or create opportunities in the domestic market.

Sorcim Technologies of Pakistan shares a similar story. However, as business always remains in motion, the company now has successfully become a software vendor. It also plans to launch software products belonging to different categories. RegInOut (reginout.com) has taught great lessons to the company and now they are rapidly learning how to market product with credibility even if you don’t live in the Western part of world.

Before starting to sell RegInOut, Sorcim had made various software and utilities which are still being sold by the American and European web entrepreneurs

Adsense Rules Should Be Follow

• Every one knows that Google Adsense have become the most common technique to earn money online. But getting into an Adsense program and continuing it is a thorny task. As you all know Adsense has a lot of rules that should be followed by we, the publishers but often many bloggers doesn't take care of those rules because like me they too know its a bit hard. But the heartbreak comes when we gets blocked from Adsense, so it's an essential due to of our's to follow some Adsense rules evidently so that we can avoid getting a block. Have a look at some essential rules that every bloggers should follow,

<strong>Artificial Clicks</strong>
Making artificial clicks to generate more income is an illegal way, so those clicks are often caught by the Google team and will be considered as spam. The usual artificial methods that bloggers use to generate clicks are Clicking on ads by themselves, asking friends or relatives to click on the ads and use of illegal processes. Using these methods will pave the way for your account to be banned. So keep away those craps and be faithful blogger and publisher.
<strong>Multiple Adsense Accounts </strong>
According to the Adsense policies you may have a multiple blogs or websites under an Adsense account but having multiple Adsense accounts for same blog is not allowed. Many bloggers thinks about this method because its a good way to earn more from the same blog. For example if a blog has a monthly earning of $100 from an Adsense account, then if he creates one more account he can earn a $100 from that too. So his earnings becomes almost double. But Google doesn't allow this type of crap and hence trying to do this will make you get out of the Adsense community.
<strong>Use of Restricted Content</strong>
Using the restricted contents, will also ban's you from Adsense. The main contents that are forbidden in a website or blog that using Adsense are;
Pornographic Contents
Hacking or Cracking Stuff's
Use of bad and offensive language
Violence, religious intolerance, etc........
 Illegal drugs
Copyright Contents
Use of repetitive and irrelevant keywords


<strong>Overcrowding of Ads</strong>
Do not overcrowd your site or blog with ads, specify some relevant places that has great chance for views and put ads on those places alone. Do not put ads wherever you can. It doesn't earns you much instead makes your readers annoyed because of your ads and also leads to banning of your Adsense account.
<strong>Got Confused ?</strong>
Some tricky and clever bloggers put ads along with their contents hiding the links so the visitors get confused and may click the ads thinking its a part of the post's content, but it's a clear violation of Adsense policies. Some other's gives some promotional words like " Click Here ", "Click to get a surprise gift", "Today's offer", etc.... to get the attention of the visitors to the ads. And both the above ways will only results in the circumstance of getting banned from Adsense.

Increase Facebook Fan Page Likes

<strong>Increase Facebook Fan Page Likes</strong>
Most of the bloggers have a Facebook Fan page, through your fan page you can post some updates of your blog, post links of your articles or may post some videos or images regarding your blog's focus. There is a gadget that Facebook offers to show our status of Fan page in our blog, this gadget will show the number (also image )of people who have liked your page. So if your page has a lot of fans surely your blog will too have a good traffic.So a Fan page status is a great tool in determining your traffic
<strong>Update Your Page Regularly </strong>
Be active in your Fan page as you are in the blog, post your blog's updates regularly in a manner that the fans of your page will be attracted. Like in the blog, interact with your followers nicely, answer their queries, give them essential support and try to be one among them. When i write a new article in my blog, i gives a brief about it and pastes the link to it by entering 'Read More', so the fans who see this may visit the blog too for more details. Posting images and videos related to your article with tagging's may also increase your fan's. Like in Movie industry, a blog's power is, the number of fans or followers it has.
<strong>Advertise through Facebook</strong>
Facebook offers an advertising facility which is likely to get more likes for your fan page. For this you need to pay some bucks but it will be a great tool for you to increase the number of likes in your page. These ads will be shown in the right side bar where usually we see the ads, the viewers will be able to like the page from the ad itself. Now a days there a lot of sites that offers Likes for money, but it is better to use the official facility that Facebook offers us.
<strong>Add Facebook's Like Box to your Site</strong>
Facebook offers a social plugin that can be put on your site which will show your fan page's status that is it will show the number ( also profile pictures, if chosen ) of people who have liked your page. Many of the bloggers achieved their fans through this because whoever comes to your blog will show this status and may Like your page if he or she has a Facebook account. See my Like Box;

<strong>Offer Incentives  </strong>
You may offer some incentives to your visitors like " LIKE our page to get a free e-book on Blogging " etc.... because every one likes offers. You can use some widgets to show these offer ads to your visitors, there are some widgets which makes your site blackout and a box appears asking to LIKE to get a free e-book and when someone likes your page the screen comes back to the original style.
<strong>Ask your Dear One's</strong>
It is the initial step that you should have done, first of all when you create a page ask your friends and relatives to LIKE it and then ask them to share it in their timeline or in some groups.
If all your friends and relatives like's your page then your page would have put a base, then it will automatically starts to generate likes. In my page 60% of the likes i got is from my friends and relatives, they put a base for my page. So don't forget it is the first step that you should have done.


<strong>Buy Likes</strong>
Not a good method from my views since most the sites offering these services are frauds, promotional words of these companies are like this " 500 likes for just $5 ". it is very hard to find the true services from these. Likes given by those people may be of fake accounts, so fake accounts will only make your page inactive in order to grow you need likes from active people so their friends too may see your page. Better don't use these services but if you lack in getting a good number of likes even after hard working you may use them.

Top Web Design Blunders You Should Avoid

Having a web site is not a rare matter now. Almost all the ventures that are being started or has started already, launches a website of their own to spread their presence around the world. So starting a web site nowadays is a simple thing but making it well usable and popular is a tough thing since the number of websites that share almost the same niche is very high. So in order to make your website popular and usable you may have to avoid some usual blunders that beginner web designers or bloggers do. Lets see those silly but serious blunders that we are likely to do.
<strong>Avoid Stylish, Fancy and Tiny Fonts</strong>
If you own a site that has to say a lot means that has a lot of texts then please avoid using stylish, fancy and tiny fonts. Use the fonts that can be well read by an old guy too. Use of stylish or fancy fonts will be more appropriate for a site that share very little text means some sites that share photos, videos, etc.......... So use fonts that can read properly.
<strong>Never Remove the Search Box</strong>
Make your site searchable, if a person is coming to your site for a particular topic he is likely to use the search box to find his need, so never forget to add a search box in your site. Since the websites nowadays contains a lot of info's, it is difficult for one to find a specific topic from it, this problem can be rectified using an internal search box.
<strong>Direct Access</strong>
Time has become the most valuable thing in our life hence no one likes to waste their time on specific things while a lot of same kind are available in the market. Therefore you should avoid using some ads or requests or some intro's before giving access to your site. A lot of sites asks it's users to see a video or to read a book or to download something before they are given the permission to the real content, as a result people gets annoyed and wont like to come  back to you further.

<strong>Avoid Harsh Colors</strong>
Using colors that make terrible feeling is not a good practice, so avoid using harsh colors. We cannot say that this color is terrible or that one is, etc............. it depends on you, but you know that some colors are always hated by everyone, like if the color red or such dark colors are used throughout the site it won't see good. So better use colors that are favorite to all, and always my choice is white body background.

<strong>Avoid Pop Ups</strong>
The most hated item by almost all users, keeps them bored or tired clicking the Skip or Cross button on the pop up screens. In most cases pop ups are generated by the ad providers and most of the bloggers or website owners ( including me ) likes to use it hence it earns much more than an ad which is placed in the site. So a pop up is an item that creates difficulty for our viewers so better avoid it.
<strong>No Horizontal Scroll</strong>
Use a design  that is screen fit, you may scroll down if it contents are much but never make a user scroll horizontal. Scrolling down is more easier as it can be done using our mouse's scroll but scrolling side ways ( horizontal ) is a bot difficult and consumes more time than scrolling down, so usually people doesn't like it hence better avoid horizontal scrolling.
<strong>Open Page in Same Window</strong>
Opening every page in a new window is an irritating practice. It is ok to open a page in the same window itself, as opening a new window always will make the processes slow and boring. So avoid opening pages in new window.

Bloggers Important things not to forget

<strong>Things that Bloggers are Likely to Forget</strong>
Every blogger who wants to have a good life through blogging is always busy, so he or she is likely to forget some essential matters that a blogger should not forget. In this post i'm sharing some essential factors that every bloggers should keep in its mind, also i confess that these points are some times buried by me too. Let me quote a sentence by Albert Einstein " the only source of knowledge is experience ". So most of the bloggers would have or will face these situations even if they take extra care about it
<strong>Backup</strong>
For blogging we need a computer or a laptop ( or anything that enables blogging ) with an internet connection, all these things are electronic devices or are made up of electronic components, so we cannot predict, at what time these things may crash. So backing up your data systematically will help you a lot. Likewise there have been many issues where blogs got crashed and the owners were unfortunate to get back their data. So backing up is a crucial factor that you should not forget. You may backup your data manually or may ask your hosting provider to do so.
<strong>Publish Comments </strong>  
Feel happy to publish the comments you gets, it may be an appreciation or a depreciation. Because comments are a great mean to get a feedback about your posts. Also it makes an opportunity to create contacts with your fellow readers. In the beginning most of the bloggers are so happy to see the comments they gets and will reply to majority of them but when the blog starts growing there is an immense attempt to forget commenting back. So publish the comments and reply to it.
<strong>Never Plagiarize</strong>

I have mentioned this point a lot of times but it is an indispensable matter that should be discussed lot of times. Never,  never copy the contents of a blog to your's without the appropriate permission. You should remember that it is the result of great hard work of a blogger like you. So never support or do plagiarism.
<strong>Don't Forget Older Posts</strong>
If you are a daily blogger or a regular updater your blog will have a lot of posts and you may forget these posts as days passes. But you can generate more traffic if you give a link to these posts in your new articles. Otherwise the stats of the older posts will decrease day by day. Through this method you can increase your internal links and can also attract more visitors who seeks about the topic that you blog. So remember to use your archives nicely.
<strong>Update Plugins </strong>  
As days go on the plugins that you may be using will become old and won't have the old effectiveness. So find the upgraded versions of your plugins and use it. It's better to use more attractive, useful and simple plugins so that it becomes suit for your visitors.
<strong>Be Networked</strong>
In my case, a lot of bloggers have helped me to become a young blogger. In past 6 months i have made contacts with a lot of younger bloggers like me and their experiences were and are a great lessons for me. So if you are networked you can gain a lot of things, and do not forget anyone who may have helped you to put up your best. There are a lot of groups and communities to share your experiences and doubts, try to be a member of those networks and be engaged with other bloggers.

Adsense tips avoid Prevent Invalid Clicks

Even after getting into the Adsense program you have to be more careful in order to prevent your Adsense account being blocked. One of the main reason why many Adsense accounts get blocked is the invalid or fraud clicks that they get. So what is an invalid click ? An invalid click means a click or impression generated by a publisher clicking on his own ads, uses automated clicking tools or traffic sources, robots or such deceptive software. Also if we gets some clicks from other unsafe sources Google will also treat  them as invalid clicks and these clicks may be generated by a person who wants to see you fall from the Adsense program. So we have to be more and more careful when using an Adsense Program. Here are some tips through which we may prevent the invalid clicks.
<strong>Know your Visitors</strong>
You must be well aware of the traffic you gets. Have a clear idea about the sources that generate traffic for you, also check your visitors data, from where they come ( geographical location or web source ), do they look suspicious, what page they looks for, etc......... For these you may use the Google Analytics or such programs  and if you see that a traffic source is unreliable, you may block those sources.
<strong>Do not Click Yourselves</strong>
You are not at all allowed to click on the ads that are published on your blogs or site. Accidental clicks may happen but clicking in a manner that looks dubious will lead to the blocking of your Adsense account since Google wants to protect their Advertiser's. So even if the ad is an interesting one for you, do not click on it.

Don't Tie Up with Untrusted Parties
Some of the bloggers has a tendency to tie up with some sites for getting more traffic. It's a good idea to generate more traffic but the site which you chooses should also be a nice one with a good traffic. Partnering with low quality site, ad networks, search engines and directories are likely to generate invalid clicks for you, so avoid partnering with these kind of sites.
<strong>Check your Ad Code</strong>
Since many of the users use custom implemented Adsense code, you may be liable to programming errors, so you should have a check on your ad code in order to ensure there is no programming errors in it. Also it is better to check the performance of your ads in different browsers and different platforms since variations may be there in different platforms and browsers.
So dear friends if you are fortunate with an Adsense account, its your great responsibility to keep it safe for both you and the advertisers. Keeping your Adsense account safe from blocking is not a difficult task if you are ready to be a faithful publisher.
