5 BEST SEO TIPS FOR BLOGGERS Let's see some basic SEO tweaks, that are easy to implement and can do wonders in optimizing your blog's content for search engines.

Use Dashes Instead Of Underscores

"It's a matter of personal preference, both do well". o if you have a url like word1_word2, Google will only return that page if the user searches for word1_word2 (which almost never happens). If you have a url like word1-word2, that page can be returned for the searches word1, word2, and even “word1 word2″. That’s why I would always choose dashes instead of underscores.

Optimizing Pics (SEO Friendly Images)

If we are using images in our posts, we must also know how to make them SEO friendly to get extra traffic from search engines. If optimized correctly, we can get very good traffic through 'Google Image Search'.

Smart Anchor Text

Proper anchor text helps in achieving better ranking in SERP's and is one of the most important part of on-page optimization process. Here is an example that shows proper implementation of anchor texts.

Optimized Permalink Structure

An optimized permalink format helps in boosting the rank of your posts in search results. Blogger does not allow manual modification of permalink structure, but it has fairly good automated permalink generation system.

Create XML Sitemap and robots.txt

Create a robot.txt file to prevent robots crawling useless or duplicate content. You can create this file in a simple text editor and saving it as robots.txt.

WRAP UP

Blogger has so many advantages for successful blogging. That’s why millions of people use it throughout the world. A blog receives appreciation from two things, quality content and nice and attractive appearance. Blogging should be done on the topics of your niche, and matching to your niche, the template should be. You can make a template for your blog yourself using a tool, TemplateToaster.
