    Blogging Tips: Tips on Becoming a Successful Blogger

    By: Joseph Onyemakonor

    Tips on Becoming a Successful Blogger: The internet has been one of the widest sources of knowledge and income, and blogging is one of the ways to make some good cash. There are over 10 million blogs and this number increases every day. Blogging is very good and interesting, especially when you are not going into it because of the money you could make. It allows you to share your opinion with the world at large and also reach out to people in need of help and advice. Some people will just rush into blogging without knowing what it involves. You must read this article and know why you shouldn’t start blogging. Here are some facts about blogging you should know and have in mind Tips on becoming a successful blogger

    THE GOOD Tips on Becoming a Successful Blogger

    Blogging has its advantages and is interesting once you get it started fully. Some of the advantages of blogging are

    • You get to share your opinion and ideas and meet people with similar views
    • You can build a steady audience and sell products to them which also serves as a source of income
    • You will make a good amount of money from it through advertising.
    • In some countries, you can win awards of best blog of the year.
    • Blogging is a major investment online.

    Blogging gives you the advantage of extra income to support your earnings and with time it can grow into a steady source of income. I know a blogger who earns $300everyday through advertisement and adsense. Once you have a blog and have successfully build a steady audience you can sell your blog and make over $10,000. Now isn’t that a very good investment?.

    THE BAD

    As good and profitable a blog can be, it has its disadvantages as well. Some of the disadvantages includes;

    • Blogging is highly time demanding and can affect your daily life and routine. Most successful bloggers know the great deal of work they put to get their blog when they first started before they could become freelance bloggers.
    • It requires new and interesting contents constantly: If you want your blog to grow fast, you should never copy and paste content from another site, you have to create new and unique contents. This is very difficult to do and most bloggers hire writers constantly. Now if you do not have the fund or resource to hire a writer then you might find it difficult running a blog
    • Once you start blogging you will spend a long time facing a Screen, this can damage your eye sight and even cause headaches. You have to be ready to face this. I will advice you do not blog if you already have any eye defect.

    THE UGLY

    There is also a very ugly part of blogging. After you must have put much effort into your blog, and also spend time on it, you may not succeed. You may constantly continue to loss money without making any profit. Do not give up on blogging. This should give you an idea on what you are going into if you decide to choose blogging as your way of making money online

  • Why You Must Quit Blogspot Comment System.

    Why You Must Quit Blogspot Comment System.

    Google over the years has brought a lots of amazing  features to improve Blogger platform but they seems to forget about the comment system (is probably one of the worst comment system in existence) or probably they consider it unimportant.

    Like most of you I have always admired the comment system of other blog platforms like wordpress, but has waited (I’m still waiting though!) patiently hoping to see a better comment system one day. (Looks like we are not going to see one in the future either).

    Why You Need To Quit  Your Blogger Comment System??

    One of the most effective ways of retaining readers to your blog is by building a little community in your blog, like I mentioned before; Blogger has one of the most crappy comment system in existence; which is the area I think they still need to improve. On my cause of making my blog convenient for you I went for a journey, With a little research (Google Of-course 🙂 ) I managed to grab some Ideas I think I should share with you. My Discoveries!Ouch: This is a very unusual title to give to reason 🙂 but honestly I can’t think of a better title to give to it (you probably should suggest one for me). While I was still using the blogger comment system, I made a very crucial error while posting a long reply on a user comment, that was when I voiced the word “ouch” what do I do? There was no Edit or Preview Option, I had to delete and re-write the entire comment (so bad I guess?). The worst is coming……   No Threading Comments: In other comment system you might have seen a  REPLY  button or link attached immediately after or below each comments; this is known as threads comment. This all important feature enable you and your readers to reply directly under each comment (Not the ‘@’ trash we normally use), Without having to do some advance xml editing.    Now, this is a very important feature for any blog comment system,  our dear default blogger comments system do not allow you to reply directly to a comment, this can lead to confusion and Ioften see bloggers having to use ‘@’ to specify which person the were replying to for example ‘@quoyo’ ‘@gotmelsh’ I can now post a reply and it will be attached to the bottom of each comment.   Enticing Comment Form: The comment form you probably have seen on wordpress comment system allow users to comment as a guest with their Name and URL, This feature entice your readers to comment on your blog post. ‘Would you want to comment on a blog that doesn’t give user the privilege to share there own blog/site?’ ‘Other people probably won’t like to either’ (that’s the devil’s tempting offer you can’t reject’) or if they have a wordpress account they can comment with that profile.But they can also comment with their social network and online profiles like *Twitter *Facebook *Yahoo *OpenId (Did You Know Your Blogger URL is an open Id?).    When you leave a comment you can also add an image or video to your comment instead of adding an image or video URL that will take users out of your blog. Now that’s is a good example of a good comment system.We have ‘that devil’s tempting offer’ but please do not spam us 🙂   Email Options: This is probably the most important feature that blogger comment system lack. ‘Ask me why?’ This is becourse these option allows your readers to choose if they want to receive new comments or replies posted to the posts they have earlier commented on directly to their email whereby helping the user to know when a reply is posted to his reply… What you probably don’t know is that this feature help you a great deal to maintain a good number of returning visitors. please, remember to choose this option while commenting here becourse I would love to see you again.   Ratings: Many of you know that I’m on bloggers, most time what really takes me to bloggers is to check how many people that voted (Rate) for my talks (comment). If there are so many people who does the same thing out there, then you can imagine how many returning visitors who will often come back to your blog to check if anybody voted for them. Our blogger comment system lacks this feature too… “You are beginning to realize how much features you are missing” Hold on I still need to tell you something and please do not forget to tell me something too 🙂 Your comment is very valuable to me.
    Moderate Options:  Most Comment system other than blogger comment system allows you to reply your post comments directly from your dashboard and email. You receive an email when a new comment or reply is posted on your blog post, the same as with Blogger comments however the options to reply to a comment are much more versatile.

    When I’m away from the computer for a few hours if I have received for example fifty comments I can go to my Intensedebate dashboard to manage the comments.From here I can read the comments and see which posts the comments were posted on.I can click on each comment and reply or delete the comments from the dashboard, now i can reply to comments on one page without the need to go to the blog.
    I Have Heard Enough! Give Me Alternative? Well I have that too, I will be lying if I said I did it all my own but I can assure that about 60% of them are actually my on Idea and please, before I share mine with you promise me you would share yours with me, ‘Ok Deal!’ Lets ride on…. I will be providing you with my idea source,. With this lets move on to our next topic.       Top Five Alternatives To Your Blogger Comment System If you want to get rid of default blogger commenting system and get a better commenting interface, then you can opt for any of these commenting systems.

    intensedebate-

    Intense Debate – I don’t know why I mentioned this first, maybe becourse I’m currently using it on this blog, but what ever the reason might be I want to assure that this is one the best comment system in existence ‘don’t know if it is the best, you will tell me???’  Though most bloggers complain that it does not have the option to export your old blogger comments to your Intensedebate data base, this is true as you might have noticed that most of our posts still have that ‘archaic’ blogger blogger comment system. This is due to we choose to install intensedebate only on new post. I will be publishing an article soon on how to add intensedebate comment system on your blogger blog so make sure you subscribe to our update via email, twitter or facebook. (I promise I won’t spam you; I hate spam too).  This is now owned by  Automattic, the makers of WordPress and is totally free!Features:

    IntenseDebate In Action

    intensedebate-commenting-system
    disqus

    DISQUS  -While on my re-search journey, I happen to read some user reply and discover that this is really the bloggers choice ‘– It is the same thing that Mashable.com uses for its comments.’ (I’m not saying is the best; you still have to me which is the best) I once used it on my blog ‘not this one’ but had to remove after I learned about the commentluv (yes, there is no option for commentluv). One Interesting feature of disqus is the option to export old blogger comment to your disqus comment system database: By so doing you will not loose any of comments.Features:

    • Social Media Reactions: (Best Feature) Display mentions and comments about post from other services around the web (e.g. Twitter, FriendFeed, Digg, YouTube).

    JS-Kit (Echo) This is also another JavaScript based commenting system.Echo offers both free and paid packages!The free package comes with threaded comments and an interface where the commenter can add videos,images,similes, etc.The commenter can also format his comments using a simple WYSIWYG comment editor. I really don’t know much about this system (and couldn’t quite link to the source page) as I have never tried them before but I do hope that their a some of you out there that do know one or more things it ‘I honestly hope you share your ideas with me; I’m very Interested’ Or you could as well try it and share your experience with us.Features:

    JS-KIT (ECHO) IN ACTION

    js-kit-commenting system

    Important: Please make sure to backup your blogger templates before trying any of this system so as to remain on the safer side.

    These are the three most popular commenting systems.They come with threaded commenting with Gravatar based profile images,which can make you commenting system look more professional.I personally prefer Intense Debate over the others.

    Note: These comment forms come with an option to show the comment form on new posts only(means posts with 0 blogger comments)!That means your old comments will stay intact and will use the old blogger comment form.(This is optional.. you can also revert all posts to use the new commenting system.But in that case, you cant display the existing comments easily..)

    These are nothing  but my own lame idea and re-search, I know there hundreds others but it’s your turn to tell me about them (Remember the promise you made to me earlier). ‘to share with me’ 

  • Your Recipe For Long-Term And Targeted Traffic: Generating Traffic To Your Website!

    Your Recipe For Long-Term And Targeted Traffic: Generating Traffic To Your Website!

    Generating traffic to your website can be easy if you know the little secrets about how to drive massive volumes of traffic at no cost.
    This article presents some secret ways through which you can easily boost traffic to your website.

    • Have your own website’s discussion board or forum, and invite people to visit and participate on your forum. This generates traffic to your website and all the posts on your website’s forum will help to improve your search engines position, which will boost traffic to your website. People who visit your forum will also visit your website, hence driving massive amounts of volume to your website.
    • Offer an e-zine on your website and invite people to subscribe to your free e-zine. When people subscribe, they will give in their email address. Every time they read your e-zine, it will remind them to return to your site since you will have your website URL in your e-zine.
    • Invite people to bookmark your website. This is particularly effective if you have high quality content on your website which makes people want to spend more time reading all the useful content on your site. Give away free content to other web masters for them to add on their websites. By allowing your visitors and other webmasters to use your articles on their own web site or in their e-zine, including your resource box, you are effectively advertising your website through their web sites. In addition, allow your visitors to give away your online freebies, and these will include your website URL, thus effectively multiplying your traffic.
    • You can also ask your website visitors to refer your web site to their friend(s) who may benefit from visiting your website. This will increase traffic to your website.
    • Invite your visitors to sign your guest book. When people sign your guestbook they may give you valuable feedback that will help you to improve your web site. This in turn will help you increase traffic to your web site by providing a useful website.

  • How To Add Facebook Recommendations Bar To Blogger

    How To Add Facebook Recommendations Bar To Blogger

    Finally, Bloggers can keep readers to their site by using this fantastic recommendation bar.
    It’s designed to display additional recommended articles right after readers have finished reading an article or spent some time on your blog. It will collapse on page load and expand once a reader has reached a specific location on your blog or finished reading the post.

    Only those articles are displayed that are previously liked or shared on Facebook. The number of likes are displayed under each article along with page title and a thumbnail. It also contains a like button and previously contained an Add to Timeline button that has been removed now.

    Unlike Facebook Recommendations box which offered related stories but with lack of user friendly interface and engagement, Facebook bar will force readers to stay longer on your site leading to increased pageviews, page impressions and thus traffic.

    HOW TO INSTALL ON BLOGGER

    This widget works on both blogger blogs and wordpress blogs. Now i’m going to take you true on how to add it on your blogger blog, the amounts of comment i get will determine if i’m going to show the wordpress tutorial. follow this simple steps to add on blogger:  

    Step1: Create a Facebook Application

    For this plugin to work you will need to create a Facebook App in seconds. The below method is the standard and correct method for creating any FB App you like.

    1. Log into Facebook Apps
    2. Click on Create New App button towards Top-rightcreate new app
    3. In the box that pops up, type “My Recommendation Bar” inside the App name field and leave other options as default. Click continue.

    app name
         4.   Enter the captcha security code. Click Submit
         5.  You are app is almost complete. Just click Website with Facebook Login tab and inside the box input your blog URL. See the screenshot below. Do not touch remaining options and click Save Changes.

     6.   You will see two strings of alpha-numerical characters. One is App ID and the other is App secret. Just copy the App ID code and keep it save in a notepad. We will need it later.
    App ID
    Congrats App finally created! Lets proceed to step2.
    Step2: Add “Recommendations Bar” To Your Blog
    Follow these steps to add the bar to Blogger:

    1. Go to Blogger > Template
    2. Backup your template
    3. Click Edit HTML > Proceed
    4. Search For this : <html

    Replace it with this code:
    xmlns:fb=’http://ogp.me/ns/fb#’
    This will make the plugin compatible in older versions of  internet explorer also. Since blogger templates are coded in XML therefore inserting this XML namespace will enhance the plugin performance and compatibility.

         5.   Next search for <body> and just below this tag paste the following code:
    Note: If you are using the new blogger templates like Simple, Awesome Inc., Travel, Watermark or Picture window then please search <body for instead. Make sure to paste the code below the entire body tag.

    </p> <div id=’fb-root’></div> <p> <b:if cond=’data:blog.pageType == “item”‘></b:if><b:if cond=’data:blog.pageType != “static_page”‘></p> <div style=’z-index:999999; position:absolute;’> <fb:recommendations -bar action=’like’ max_age=’0′ num_recommendations=’3′ read_time=’10’ side=’right’ site=’https://ewtnet.com’ trigger=’40%’></fb:recommendations></div> <p></b:if>
    You are almost done. Make these changes:

         6.   Save your template and you are all done!
    Visit your blog and scroll down about 50% of your page and wait for 10 seconds for the plugin to expand. Enjoy the new way of free pageviews juice! 🙂

    Optional Steps

    Below are optional customization and control options. You can skip them if you want max_age: will decide the age limit of articles. Sometimes you don’t want to display too old articles so you can set it to display up to 1-180 days old posts. But if you don’t want to take age into account then let it be 0 as default.  num_recommendations: You can set how many articles to display. By increasing or decreasing the value 3
    read_time: As soon as the user reaches a specified location, the plugin would expand and before expanding it will take some time. I have kept it equal to 10 seconds, you can increase it to 30 or more as you wish.  side: You can decide the location of plugin. By default it shows up towards the bottom right corner of your page. You set it to float to left  trigger: On page load the plugin collapses and as soon as it reaches a specified location it expands. You can choose that location in three ways i.e. onvisible, X% or manual. I prefer locating the trigger point by percentage for better pageviews. The widget will expand as soon as the user scroll downs 40% of your page. You can increase or decrease this value. If you wish that the plugin must expand as soon as the reader reaches the end of your article then instead of pasting the code between the purple lines paste it just below data:post.body tag and use the value onvisible instead of 40%.  The widget will display only on post pages and not on homepage or static pages. To display it on all pages, then simply delete the purple bolded lines

Second, fresh content with your key words will improve your search engine ranking which brings traffic to your blog and website.
    2. Optimizing your titles for search engines is also an effective way of driving traffic to your website. You will need to optimize your blogs titles and use all the keywords or phrases which people use while looking for information on the internet. This will make your website visible on search engines, and your website will also rank high for all your keywords, driving traffic to your website.
    3. Use email marketing with your blog. This is an effective way of bringing readers back to your blog as well as to create a list. Having your own list is important because you can sell your products and services to your list.

  • Keyword Search Optimization Advice For Bloggers

    Keyword Search Optimization Advice For Bloggers

    If you’re blogging then you will almost certainly have heard about keyword search optimization. There are many ways to get traffic to your blog, but the best free method is to appear in the search engines for relevant keywords. Searchers will then click through to your blog to find what you’re looking for. Although the search engines may include your site in results when you take advantage of keyword search optimization or not, you can give them a helping hand. By doing keyword research, finding highly searched keywords, and then using them appropriately in your content, you can make sure that the search engines rank you higher for these terms. Keyword Density When writing using keywords, the number of times you include a given keyword throughout the content is known as “keyword density”. For example, if your blog post is 400 words long and contains 4 instances of the keyword, this means that you’ve got a 1% keyword density (one instance of the keyword per 100 words). There is debate about how much you should use the keywords, but it’s often recommended you use them at least once per 100 words. Where you use the keywords is also important. You should include them: * At the beginning of the title, * Within the first sentence, * Within the last sentence, * And spread through the article body.  Keep It Natural Although keyword search optimization is an important strategy for many bloggers, it’s also important to sound natural. After all, it’s not just the search engines looking at your content – there are real human readers too! And they’re likely to be turned off if it sounds like you’ve just stuffed in your keyword as many times as possible. This is why it’s important to work on writing a good blog post first, and worry about the keywords you’re including second. No matter how well you’ve incorporated keyword search optimization into your article, your site isn’t going to do well unless you can keep readers interested with well crafted, interesting content that’s written with their needs in mind. Too Many Keywords Can Have The Opposite Effect Although we all know that it’s useful to include keywords in your blog posts, including too many can even turn the search engines off. The giants like Google are well aware that bloggers and internet marketers are trying to improve their rankings with methods like this, so they won’t reward you for taking shortcuts and stuffing your content with too many keywords. If they did, it would be too easy for low quality rankings to get to the top of the rankings. Keywords Aren’t Everything Following on from the point above, it’s important to realize that Google is looking at a lot more than just keywords to rank your site. It takes into account who links back to your site, how you link to your own pages, how well your site is laid out and, importantly, whether your website actually delivers the information your visitors are searching for. Keyword search optimization is definitely something you should be incorporating into your blog posts if you want to take advantage of free search engine traffic. However, it’s also important to work on the quality of your blog. The visitors will follow.

    5.    Now search for </body> and paste the following code just above </body>

    <div id='lower'>
    <div id='lower-wrapper'>
    <div id='lowerbar-wrapper'>
    <b:section class='lowerbar' id='lowerbar1' preferred='yes'>
    </b:section>
    </div>
    <div id='lowerbar-wrapper'>
    <b:section class='lowerbar' id='lowerbar2' preferred='yes'>
    </b:section>
    </div>
    <div id='lowerbar-wrapper'>
    <b:section class='lowerbar' id='lowerbar3' preferred='yes'>
    </b:section>
    </div>
    <div id='lowerbar-wrapper'>
    <b:section class='lowerbar' id='lowerbar4' preferred='yes'>
    </b:section>
    </div>
    <div style='clear: both;'/>
    </div>
    </div>

    6.   Save your template and you are done!
    Now go to Page Elements and add your widgets to the newly added Footer Widget that will look something like this,
    image You can observe that there a total of four columns by default and you can add as many widgets as you want to each column. If you wish to increase or decrease the number of vertical columns then follow the steps below.

    How to Customize the Widget?

    Well I will keep it simple. I think the colors and overall size and padding and margining are just perfect. The only thing that you will need to adjust according to your template is the width of the widget and the number of vertical columns.

    1.  In order to reduce or increase the overall width of the widget simply change width: 960px;
    2.  If you wish to decrease the number of widgets to three then simply delete this part of the code,
    <div id=’lowerbar-wrapper’>
    <b:section class=’lowerbar’ id=’lowerbar4‘ preferred=’yes’>
    </b:section>
    </div>

    3.  Or if you wish to add an extra column then add the code below just above <div style=’clear: both;’/>
    <div id=’lowerbar-wrapper’>
    <b:section class=’lowerbar’ id=’lowerbar#‘ preferred=’yes’>
    </b:section>
    </div>

    Remember that lowerbar# refers to the column number. So if you want to add a fifth column then simply replace  lowerbar# with lowerbar5.
    After you have added the fifth column then remember to change width: 23%; with width: 17%;
    You will repeat step 3 for as many columns as you wish to create. But three and four and five columns are a standard. Increasing them will make things look ugly.

  • Keyword Search Optimization Advice For Bloggers

    Keyword Search Optimization Advice For Bloggers

    If you’re blogging then you will almost certainly have heard about keyword search optimization. There are many ways to get traffic to your blog, but the best free method is to appear in the search engines for relevant keywords. Searchers will then click through to your blog to find what you’re looking for.


    Although the search engines may include your site in results when you take advantage of keyword search optimization or not, you can give them a helping hand. By doing keyword research, finding highly searched keywords, and then using them appropriately in your content, you can make sure that the search engines rank you higher for these terms.

    Keyword Density

    When writing using keywords, the number of times you include a given keyword throughout the content is known as “keyword density”. For example, if your blog post is 400 words long and contains 4 instances of the keyword, this means that you’ve got a 1% keyword density (one instance of the keyword per 100 words). There is debate about how much you should use the keywords, but it’s often recommended you use them at least once per 100 words.

    Where you use the keywords is also important. You should include them:

    • At the beginning of the title
    • Within the first sentence
    • Within the last sentence
    • And spread through the article body.

     Keep It Natural

    Although keyword search optimization is an important strategy for many bloggers, it’s also important to sound natural. After all, it’s not just the search engines looking at your content – there are real human readers too! And they’re likely to be turned off if it sounds like you’ve just stuffed in your keyword as many times as possible.


    This is why it’s important to work on writing a good blog post first, and worry about the keywords you’re including second. No matter how well you’ve incorporated keyword search optimization into your article, your site isn’t going to do well unless you can keep readers interested with well crafted, interesting content that’s written with their needs in mind.

    Too Many Keywords Can Have The Opposite Effect

    Although we all know that it’s useful to include keywords in your blog posts, including too many can even turn the search engines off. The giants like Google are well aware that bloggers and internet marketers are trying to improve their rankings with methods like this, so they won’t reward you for taking shortcuts and stuffing your content with too many keywords. If they did, it would be too easy for low quality rankings to get to the top of the rankings.

    Keywords Aren’t Everything

    Following on from the point above, it’s important to realize that Google is looking at a lot more than just keywords to rank your site. It takes into account who links back to your site, how you link to your own pages, how well your site is laid out and, importantly, whether your website actually delivers the information your visitors are searching for.

    Keyword search optimization is definitely something you should be incorporating into your blog posts if you want to take advantage of free search engine traffic. However, it’s also important to work on the quality of your blog. The visitors will follow.
