Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject such as food, politics, or local news; others function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual, although some focus on art (artlog), photographs (photoblog), sketchblog, videos (vlog), music (MP3 blog), audio (podcasting) or sexual topics (Adult blog), and are part of a wider network of social media. Micro-blogging is another type of blogging which consists of blogs with very short posts.
As of September 2007, blog search engine Technorati was tracking more than 106 million blogs.[1] This speaks highly for the blog. You may have been searching on Google for relevant information concerning a particular keyword phrase and have run into a website that looks just a little different from most sites. This was more than likely a blog. People use blogs in all kinds of ways. There can be blogs with titles that run the gambit from anything to teens searching for answers to life, to sex blogs, to informational blogs, but for the purpose that I use blogs, I like to call this blogging for dollars. In fact, blogging is one of the single most powerful ways to obtain top positions on the search engines. When you develop a blog geared towards a particular keyword phrase, add content to that blog daily and are very diligent in your pursuit of that keyword category you can achieve excellent ratings on Google.
Developing a blog is a consistent process. I use a series of different services, such as BlogFather, Blogger, Bloglines and I even use blogs that I host at my domain hosting company. This particular service is available at ButchHamiltonsBestDomains.com The way that I choose to add weblogs to my seo promoting I like to call power blogging. This is the focused effort of adding great content on a daily basis to that blog for my seo clients to obtain top positions on Google, Yahoo, MSN and all the other major search engines. It works every time when you add the best original, and keyword focused information daily.
The whole point is this. You need to be very consistent with your posting to make this an effective online promoting tool. Like anything else, it is almost totally dependent on the content that you add to your blog. While most people are just adding non-sensical and meaningless copy to their blogs, you can create your blog with the intent and purpose of capturing a top position on Google for your website. As content is king, when you begin to arrange your thinking to that goal, your blogs become very powerful. I have noticed that it takes about 100 posts before a particular blog really begins to show presence on Google. You may be thinking that this was going to be a magic button to promoting, but let me assure you, there is no such thing. Search engine rankings on Google are all about consistency, effort and writing. Once you begin to understand that nothing happens quickly on the search engines, the more likely you will be to have success. You will also be automatically producing rss feeds, which you can place on your websites to add constantly changing content for those sites.
