Just A Quick SEO Update

Hey Everybody,

I know that it's been a long time since I made a new post here, which is because I originally intended to use this blog mainly for the benefit of my APSense group members (as thoroughly discussed in my first post entitled How to Add a Blogroll (a.k.a. Link List) to Your Blogger / Blogspot Blog).

However, I just read some brand new Search Engine Optimization (SEO) reports and learned that "backlinks" (i.e., incoming links to a blog, website or web page; a.k.a. incoming links, inbound links, inlinks, and inward links) are still a viable source for SEO "points" from all of the major search engines, along with a few new white hat SEO tricks.

Not to mention that Google loves Blogger / Blogspot blogs, because it's the owner. As such, Google spiders them quite frequently and will place more importance on backlinks from them (hint, hint).

This fact alone will help you get indexed by Google much faster than normal and will help to increase your target blog's or website's PageRank (i.e., the level of importance Google places on a site).

The best part is, you can have multiple Blogger / Blogspot blogs on different niches. And I'm sure you've heard the saying, "There's riches in niches," right?

So I decided to incorporate this blog into my SEO backlink structure for all of my personal blogs and websites (e.g., my niche website at Free People Search). And I will probably start some more Blogger / Blogspot blogs to increase the number of backlinks overall.

Of course, this all translates into more "natural" (a.k.a. "algorithmic" or "organic") search engine traffic, as opposed to, say, Pay-Per-Click (PPC) traffic, which is the main purpose behind SEO to begin with.

Moreover, I'm gonna start writing more posts here in order to generate fresh content, which, according to what I've recently learned, increases the importance of this blog for SEO purposes.

Well, I guess that's enough ramblings for now. Thanks for reading and have a great, blessed day.

Regards,

Michael Brock
