Dear readers, I hope by now you would have setup your very own blog & register for a free blogger account with Blogsvertise. Blogsvertise is a great site for novice blogger to begin with, in my opinion. Though your account might be under "Probation" yet you can start blogging and earning right away.

Starting from today onwards, I would share with you guys ways to increase your Blog popularity. What's the point of writing a good blog yet with no visitor? A successful Blog can easily attract thousands of visitors every day.

Ways To Increase Your Blog Popularity Part (1): Submit Your Blog To Blog Search Engines

Submit your Blog to Popular Search Engines. Eg. Technorati.com, BlogPulse etc. Think of these Search Engines like Google. Google searches for information in Blogs and websites where as they search in Blogs only.

Note: It is also important to include keywords in your title or body of your Blog posts because these will help in bringing visitors to your Blog from Search Engines. Your Blog address will be considered as keyword(s) as well.

Keyword(s) are specific word(s) that are related to your Blog content. This will allow your visitors to find your Blog faster and easier.

Google Blog Search
The Google Blog Search Pinging Service is a way to inform Google Blog Search of weblog updates. These updates are then published and shared with other search engines to allow them to discover the changes to your weblogs. In addition, Google Blog Search will add submitted weblogs to the list of blogs it needs to crawl and index. For a start, I suggest you do a manual submission whenever you update your Blog. Click here.

Technorati
Technorati is one of the best Blog Search Engines to increase your blog visibility. You need to sign up an account with them. Afterwhich, claim your Blog by entering your Blog web address and adding tags to describe your blog. Finally, you need to include some codes in your blog template to show that you are the rightful owner of the blog site.

BlogPulse
BlogPulse is another Blog Search Engine you can consider submitting your Blog. You may submit your Blog here.

By submitting your Blog into these search engines, it will be a good kick-start for your Blog to be visible to the outside world. We will discuss more other ways in my next post.
