A Free SEO tool

Holla everyone! I have a surprise for you! A free SEO tool for you guys! Its for Wordpress and it is a set it and forget it plugin! All you have to do is download a plugin called CBping Optimizer and install it on your self hosted Wordpress blog! You can enter all the websites you want to ping in the box and then forget about it. What it does is that whenever you post something it will ping the list of websites you have provided. Generally, Wordpress has a self integrated pinger in the settings but it has a major fault. It pings the website even when you update a post or make some changes in the template. This rises the chances of your website being blocked from the websites you were pinging, thus effectively taking away your juice. So all you have to is to get the plugin and install it. You can find a list of working ping websites in my post on how to index websites. I have already posted the list over there, so and grab it! This way with controlled number of pings you save yourself from becoming a spam pinger and thus ultimately help the ranking of your blog. Enjoy this free tool and do tell me what you think about the post!

Use of Image

how to add alt image tags for search engine optimization
Free SEO Tips
Images are very important from the point of view of search engines. Many people do not like using images in their posts and think it will look, I don't know, maybe "baby-ish" or"girl-ish". Well to the contrary people are always attracted by images and the better the images, the more attention it will grab. Another very important concept of using images are the alt-image tags. Again a majority of people do not use these tags but these are really important. It add keywords to the pages but does not contribute to keyword stuffing. So always use alt-image tags.

A little something about content

This feeling is generally termed as "Writer's Block". So how do you overcome writer's block? Now you will find a huge amount of other sources saying, think on what other people want, or maybe some other Guru mantra.

So what is that secret to really overcome that writer's block? Yes I know that I am trying to sound like a Guru but believe me it's the easiest way to get content! So what is it?

Google SEO

Whenever we think of searching for something online, which search engine do you use? I guess 90% of you people will say, it's Google! So Google is the most important way to attract that free traffic you want. So that is why Google is the search engine that we want to rank for. Google SEO is a little difficult compared to other search engines because Google has the most variable algorithm for their search results. I mean, I don't think even the people working for Google know how exactly their beloved search engine works. But there are a few tried and tested method for ranking in Google results pages. One of them is to build backlinks, and we will cover that in a coming post. Another is proper keyword selection and I have talked a little about that already in my last post about how to choose keywords you want to rank for.
