I have been looking up all kinds of techniques to try and work on search engine optimization for my sites. I have attempted using article distribution companies, content spinners, profile links, you name it. So I appreciate the posts here on your blog.

In reply to Rohit Langde.

I do not completely agree with Mr.I because at the start ups we use the themes which are already being used by others and later to make the blog more unique and creative we switch to next theme 😉

As we are blogging we could come across some more themes which can be used for increasing loading speed,making money ….etc and then we usually tend to change the theme.

In reply to Mr. I. @Mr. I, Yep, I should I have added it as 10th point :) Actually at initial stages, we often get fascinated by new themes coming up daily and cannot resist to wear it on blog. Sometimes, you are just not satisfied with all the features you have on existing one.

Well, that’s quite a good list. Another thing that shows that someone is still rookie is re-designing the blog every 2-3 months. I find it really irritating when people keep changing designs.

You’ve raised some very interesting points.

Regarding #2 Yahoo’s Smush.it will help people who don’t know how to optimize their images themselves and if you are using WordPress you can install a plugin that will automatically run your images through Smush.it for you (I covered this in a recent post on my site).

I get #5 all the time and often from people that haven’t even taken the time to read a blog entry but have gone straight for my contact form.

Thanks for sharing,

Karl

In reply to vivek bandebuche. @vivek bandebuche, See, you should only keep items which seems to be useful for your readers. Nothing flashy content to increase load on page. I would suggest you to keep Recent article widget, Popular posts and Archives in Blogger Blog.

As a new blogger, outbound links do make some bloggers aware that you exist. But most of the time, I just use them as references.

Nice tips you mentioned. i have tried to keep my sidebar clean as possible and I have better linking now. Optimizing my images has always been high on my list, I hate visiting a site which takes for ever to load. Currently my blog is using my surname which I don’t think is to long.

These are pretty basic “errors” and anyone that has done any significant blogging should really be aware that they are not working correctly. Of course, I can’t slam newbies for jumping in, but after some time they should know better.
