SimpleTags Plugin

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

Technorati is the largest tag search engine right now, when you have had Technorati account and had claimed your blog in it, it means you have done the right way to promote your blog outside. Tecnorati ranked lot of blogs based on number of incoming link in your blog from other blogs. The higher your rank easier people will find your blog when people search something, and your blog credibility is greater in Technorati.

That’s why you have to insert Technorati tags in your posts. There is plugin will help you to easily put Technorati tags into your posts, that is SimpleTags Plugin. I have this idea when I read Paul Stamatiou post in HOW TO: Boost Your Blog Traffic. Once finished read this, I search Technorati tags plugin on Google and I found SimpleTags is suitable plugin for this purpose.

I have used this on my blog, you can see this in the end of my posts. If you are interested, you can use this too, download this plugin and read the usage on SimpleTags - A WordPress Plugin for generating Technorati Tags.

Technorati: Blog Directory, Tags and Bookmarks

Thursday, October 16th, 2008

As I have explained before, blog campaign is needed to get known by others. For this purpose at least you should submit your blog to two popular blog directories: technorati.com and feedburner.com. Technorati blog directory is currently the largest followed by blogsearch.com owned by Google. Technorati not only function as a blog directory, but also as a blogsearch, tags aggregator, a tool to know linkback blog and online bookmarks. What is the tag and online bookmarks and how to maximize the functions of Technorati?

Tag is similar with subject or category. This serves to help search engines find your writing. Currently, there are search engines work to find ’tag’. So, for example in your blog give the tag “server”, then when someone search “server” as search keyword in search engines, your blog will be listed. Technorati allows their members to put 20 tags for each blog.

Social bookmarks: if you open Internet Explorer (IE), then there is the FAVORITE menu. Favorite menu is used to save the various links that you like, including your own blog address so other times you simply open the link page from your favorite menu.

Example above is offline bookmark, this time there are many sites provide online bookmark services such as Technorati. This online bookmark can be used wherever you are get connected with internet. Unlike the offline bookmarks, you can only access your favorite blogs on your own computer.

Below is step by step guidance to maximize Technorati (this guide assume that you have sign-up/register in Technorati. If not please register first).

1. Submit to blog directory and Technorati tag.

The steps are:

  • Sign in, click account menu.

  • Click Begin Claim.
  • Choose quick claim, fill in your id and blog’s password.
  • Click quick claim.

  • Mark “include this blog in Technorati’s Blog Finder” check box.
  • Fill in 20 tags in the provided box.
  • If you do not want to install Technorati feature in your blog, click save changes.
  • But if you want to install Technorati widget in your blog, you have to give mark sign on “Show Technorati embed on my site”, and choose your desired features, then you have to copy the code and paste this code onto your blog template, click save changes.

2. Technorati Bookmarks/Favorites

The steps are:

  • Click Favorites menu.
  • Fill in your favorite blog’s address into “Add a blog to your favorites” box.

Blog Promotion: The Ways and Ethics

Thursday, September 18th, 2008

Many ways could be done to promote a blog to be known by others, but there are half people don’t know and don’t understand the ethics in blog promotion, not rarely they do anything to promote their blog. The most important thing is deliver visitors into our blog, so they could read and absorb the essential information which is contained in it.

This post give useful information for blogger who just start to blog and intend to promote their blog in order to be recognized and visited by lot of readers in good ways. This post is made and designated to newbie, and don’t you ever ask me whether I whom read this am a professional blogger? I am newbie too, but I try to share my knowledge that I got from others to the others.

Below are few things could be useful to promote your blog:

Use Search Engine to Promote Your Blog

The practical way is using auto web submit. There are many free services offer this kind of job, you could find it by yourself using search engine like Google. To make simple registration process, I suggest you to use mypagerank service, Google blog search and blogdigger could be the alternative to search, this two services are best services right now. Almost every blog service provider has search feature which indexing link on their database, and we could get more advantage when they have ping service that will help us to promote our blog.

One of web auto submits is mypagerank, this service will facilitate blog registration process into several outstanding search engines:
www.google.com
www.searchengine.com
www.infortiger.com
www.scrubtheweb.com
www.searchuk.com
www.entireweb.com
www.maxpromo.com
www.aesop.com
www.whatuseek.com
www.splatsearch.com
www.walhello.com
www.acoon.de
www.szukacz.pl
www.daypop.com
www.fybersearch.com
www.biveroo.de
www.infoseek.co.jp
www.yandex.ru
www.amfibi.com
www.bigfinder.com
www.metawebsearch.com
www.jayde.com
www.cipinet.com
www.infotiger.com
www.websquash.com
www.Search-o-rama.com
www.unasked.com
www.uk.abacho.com
www.mixcat.com

To promote your blog into those search engine click here. I just want to say, it is not guaranteed your site will be registered in a few short times, it depends on those search engine method in indexing site/blog page.

Leaving a comment is the best promotion ways:

  • Leave a comment on every blog you’ve visited, this is one effective ways to promote your blog.
  • Make positive comment on other’s blog.
  • Fill in guestbook, online chat or tag board if it is available.
  • Give a simple and suits compliment to blog author, don’t to excessive in giving complimentary, there somebody accept compliment as humiliation.
  • Give a weight comment according to the topic.
  • Don’t do spam word, like “Visit to my blog”, “hey, Come to my brand new blog”. This is not good ways to promote your blog, blog owner which is you leave a comment will be annoyed about it.

Join Mailing List and Forum:

  • This will build strong relationship with other bloggers.
  • Find the suitable and match your blog’s topic with the forum’s topic.
  • Try to answer all questions on forum, and give nice comment on it. Once again, don’t do spam.

Banner Exchange

For new blogger:

  • Find well known blog that has high rank, besides leaving a track, this make your blog will be indexed by search engine.
  • Link exchange among blogger is not only making your blog being known, but this is as media to recognize blog URL address which had you visited.
  • Don’t you ever feel angry, sad, humiliated if there is no link back to your blog. Think positive and always think positive.
  • Give useful comment wisely and in proper way but containing great and look promising, like “This blog give me a lot of great things, I will bookmark it and subscribe to your RSS. I will surely revisit”. This is good way to make blog owner feel warm and happy, and it is big possibility he/she will do the same thing to you.

For old blogger:

  • For famed blogger that has blogging in such a long time, share your link to others especially the new ones, because you are nothing without their support.
  • Link exchange with new blogger will not give you any beneficial from page rank side, in fact this give them page rank support, but you have to remember that your blog will keep visit all time and will kept in new blogger’s mind. This has simple reason; they will feel appreciated and also give positive impression.
  • Don’t you feel irked with new blogger manner, you should tolerate their action because they are new (including me myself) and need more time to learn a lot, try to remember the past when you were still learning how to promote your blog, maybe you did the same thing like new blogger do in this time.

Email Publication

This is an effective way to publicize your blog, for example you send email to your friend, family, and business partner. Leave your blog URL address as further information about your business without any compulsion to visit your blog.

Avoid SPAM Utilization

Spam is an action to promote a blog without considering time and place. Make sure you choose the right place and tools to promote your blog.

Advertise Not Only In Virtual World

Besides promotion in virtual world, you should consider to buy ads in real world.

Register Your Blog to Third Party

Service from third party allows your blog to be known to all over the world. Some of them are good in doing promotion, those are:

Tips to Technorati: you have to ping this service frequently, most of this service’s users are blogger too, so use appropriate keyword and tag which is related to your blog niche.

Above are the effective ways to promote your blog to date, the important thing is always keep away from SPAM, use normal method, proper, and wise as well as guidelines above.
