Is blogger could for building links
-
Hi i would like to know if blogger through google is a good way to build links and traffic. I have started to use blogger and would like to know if i am wasting my time using it for link building and traffic building for my main site
-
To be completely honest, I'd focus on the content on your site before building links to your site. I looked at a page about virtual gastric bands and the content did not appear natural or written for the user.The page I reviewed was quite long with the same phrases repeated over and over.
It doesn't matter how many links you have to a site or how many visitors you get if the visitor gets to your site and leaves right away because the content just doesn't meet their needs.
Focus your time and energy on just one main site for your practice, and make that site the best it can be. I fear you may be losing focus and trying to do too much, and letting some things slide (such as looking at the links page, you link out to sites that are hacked or no longer in existence or are under development; I don't know if they are all your sites, but I know at least some are).

Hi, the articles on there are articles i wrote but put them onto free article sites. i put them on the blog to see how it works and then i will be writing origianl content on there.
What i am looking at is, i have noticed that google picks up blogs in there blog news or when you type in a phrase into google blogs you get a load up so i was hoping that once i can work out how to make the blog look good that i can put original content on there and at the same time have links going to my site and also traffic.
I am not sure if this is worth my time or not, or if i should just put two paragraphs of the content on the blog and then have people read the rest on my site or just leave the blogging alone.
I am trying to explore new ways to get people to my site www.clairehegarty.co.uk

The content on the blogspot site appears to be identical to content on several other sites, so it's really not doing you any good. The search engines don't want to show users the page on five different URLs, so they're going to try to just pick the one best article.
My advice is to not spend your time creating duplicate articles on a blogspot domain, but instead spend that time making sure that your main domain has quality content that is written for the user, not for the search engine.

hi as i am new to blogging i have got myself a blogger account which is here
http://gastrichypnoband.blogspot.com/
To be honest i do not like it that much as there are no nice graphics that i can put anywhere and it seems limited to what i can do
but the idea is to try and promote it, well learn how to promote it and use it for articles that will not be on my site and generate interest to my site.
any advice on the best way to drive traffic to my site using this blogger would be good.
what i want is, for people to read the articles and then go to my site
-
Usually, if you're going to the trouble of creating quality content, you want to do so on your site and on a folder on your site (rather than a subdomain) if possible.
Which has more value to your site:
A page on a brand-new blogpost page that has no initial ranking, sending a link and maybe a visitor or two to your website
or
A page on your own site that already has some ranking, which will attract the visitor to your own site.
You want to build up the ranking on the site that you own and control, not stash little bits of it everywhere with free hosting plans.
-
Yes you could,
I have mine on a subdomain, http://blog.perthseocompany.com.au/
I cant point you to one right now. but there is millions
-
so say if i had a blog on my account and i was writing lots of different blogs, could i add a link each time to my site.
do you please have an example of a blog with a website
-
Well of cause it would. if you get a link to it, you get the link juice. I think your hoster is thinking what is best for him.
This is what I would do, it may not suit you, I would get a PC and instal IIS web server(free with windows 7) on it, and host your own website and blog, the cost of the pc would soon be covered by saving on hosting costs and bother of not having direct access to your site.
Or at least get a new hoster where you have very good control.
I work on windows servers and adding a blog to your web site with IIS takes lessd than 5 minutes. there is some very cheap hosters where you can get all this functionaly for $10 a month, discount asp is one.

i like the sound of this alan, can you explain about joining a blog to my site. i did ask my hosting company about this but they said that i would be wasting my time as it would not bring me any extra juice to my site but then i have heard people say it does. would love to learn more
-
you could always pass a few links to your site, but you would need to promote your blog first so your not really getting anywhere.
What i would do is add a blog to your main site or a subdomain of your main site. you can then shape your jink juice with internal linking and any links you attract will help your main site also.

Link building to ROOT domain OR to WWW.?
Hello, Here I come with one more 'sensitive' question, hoping that you SEO gurus could give some input on. My title explains pretty much what I'm wondering about, but let me give you some short data. I have from .htaccess file set that all traffic goes to WWW.mydomain.com. I know that it is 'better' for search engines not to have duplicate destinations as that can give decreased page rank because of 'double content'. As for search engines http://domain.com and http://www.domain.com is totally different domains. Now wondering one thing: If I build a several thousands of backlinks at various sources, blogs, directories, web sites etc etc. - shall I link to domain ROOT or shall I include WWW prefix? When looking at Moz Keyword Analysis for my domains, I can see a block about 'Linking Root Domains' and 'Page Linking Root Domains'. But no 'www' variable (sub-domain) there. As I have already set canonical part so everything shows with WWW on my website - what logic shall I use when building backlinks? How will search engine translate the link juice in regards I wrote above? Thanks in advance, great forum!

Link juice and max number of links clarification
I understand roughly that "Link Juice" is passed by dividing PR by the number of links on a page. I also understand the juice available is reduced by some portion on each iteration. 50 PR page 10 links on page 5 * .9 = 4.5 PR goes to each link. Correct? If so and knowing Google stops counting links somewhere around 100, how would it impact the flow to have over 100 links? IE 50 PR page 150 links on the page .33 *.9 = .29PR to each link BUT only for 100 of them. After that, the juice is just lost? Also, I assume Google, to the best of its ability, organizes the links in order of importance such that content links are counted before footer links etc.

Number of links you should have on a taxonomy term??
According to SeoMoz, my taxonomy terms contain more than 100 links (links to articles in my case) and it tells me that I should reduce it. I have seen a video by Matt Cutts, the google software engineer, and in that video he said that Google's engine has dramatically improved ever since and 100 is not the limit anymore. What do you guys think is the best practice here? To clarify the subject even more: I want to learn this from link juice perspective, does it effect how link juice is distributed? Let's say I have 5 taxonomy terms and all of them have 200 articles and these 5 terms are listed on the home page of a PR7 website. In this case some of the PR will be passed to these 5 taxonomy terms. However, if I increase taxonomy terms to 10, then i will reduce links to 100, but the PR will be distributed even more. This means each taxonomy term will have even less PR value. Am I wrong? Any ideas?

Do web pages have to be linked to a menu?
I have a situation where people search for terms like, say 1978 one dollar bill. Even though there never was a 1978 one dollar bill. I want to make a page to capture these searches but since there wasn't such a thing as a one dollar bill I don't want it connected to the rest of my content which is reality based. Does that make sense? Anyway, my question is, can I publish pages that aren't linked to my menu structure but that will be searchable or, am I going to have to figure out a way to make these oddball pages accessible through my menu?
