A Blog Consulting Happening
Posted by: | CommentsI guess you could file this article under “so what” but I felt like sharing something that has been happening here on Blog Consulting. We are showing up on the first page for a Google search of “Blog Consulting” every now and again. Here is some pictorial evidence:
Now, granted, Blog Consulting is showing up at the very bottom of page 1, but it is on the page. Why does it even mater? A page one return is the desired result for SEO efforts. The blogs and bloggers who sites show up on page one are an amazing group of blog consultants. I often read their blogs and I know what kind of work they are producing. Just to show up on the same page is what we consider a “happening”. When you work on a blog or website and finally see some Google recognition, it is a very satisfying feeling.
There is an extremely strong possibility that the slide will slide back to page 2 or 3 and then move forward again. Over time I hope to see this Blog Consulting site stay on Page 1 and hopefully move up somewhere in the top three for the keyword phrase “blog Consulting” and “Blog Consultant”. We will keep working and watching!
Blog Consulting presents – Ten Websites for Ten Dollars a Year – Part 3
Posted by: | CommentsIn this blog consulting series we are talking about setting up ten websites for ten dollars a year. We are going to start a group of websites about alternative energy and then we will put adsense on them and find some good affiliate programs to see if we can begin to make some money from the sites.
We need to get a domain name to get things started. This is what we are going to spend the ten dollars on. We are going to do our domain name research at Good News Domains, and then we will purchase the domain name (with tax the domain name will actually cost 10.19, so I rounded down for the title of the series). Good News Domains will then provide us with free hosting for our ten websites. We will set the main one up with the domain name we purchased, and then we will set up the others as sub-domains with the keywords we researched earlier.
Alternative energy is very competitive and so we had to get creative to get a domain name that would work. We finally decided on and purchased Alternative Energy Information (www.alternativeenergyinformation.net). We will set this site up with the free linux hosting provided by Good News domains. The next step will be to set up the sub-domain sites. This method will work fine as we are going to be expecting the search engines to bring traffic to our sites. Over the next couple of week we will be getting the following sites going.
Renewable Alternative Energy
Future Alternative Energy
etf Alternative Energy
Mutual Fund Alternative Energy
Business Alternative Energy
Alternative Energy Funds
Alternative Energy Investments
Alternative Energy Stocks
Alternative Energy Sources
Getting these sites started will require us to create MYSQL databases and then installing Wordpress for each of the sites. This process is really fairly easy once you get used to it. It requires some knowledge of how to use FTP (file transfer protocol), and how to unzip files. Good News Domains provides an FTP program or you can use Firezilla or any other FTP program you are comfortable with. We will continue this blog consulting series of articles after we get the sites up and running.
How Do I Get Traffic to My Blog – Part 6
Posted by: | CommentsHere on Blog Consulting we are writing this series of articles to help you develop your blog. One of the biggest components of a successful blog is that it gets a lot of visitors. We have been talking about the idea of developing keywords in this series of articles that will draw traffic to your site. We have been using the keywords bog consulting and blog consultant on this site.
Another strategy is to think about other things that people might search for to bring them to your site. For example, if someone needed help with their blog, they may not know to search for a blog consultant. They may however simply type in to a Google search “I need help with my blog”. In order to potentially capitalize on this, I wrote a series of articles called “I Need Help With My Blog”. If you were to do a Google search for that string of words today, this is what comes up:
This site shows up on Page 1 in position 10. Any time you can get your site as a page 1 return on Google it will increase your traffic flow. I am writing these articles called “How Do I Get Traffic to My Blog” with the same idea. A google search with these keywords gives the following result:
This return is currently in the middle of page 3. Over time there is the possibility that the position will improve. Each time we start a new series of articles it will be with the idea of attracting visitors to the site. This is a strategy you might want to consider for your own blog.
