The secret many internet marketers know is that Google LOVES bloggers who blog in the right way. One of the biggest reasons for my online success has been the use of this Wordpress blog. The great thing about Wordpress is that it is FREE to use if you already have a hosting account with the right features. There are a number of reasons why Wordpress gives better Search Engine Rankings. However, instead of going into all of that, I would prefer for you to hear it directly from Google.
Matt Camp is the head of the Web Spam team at Google, and in this video he shares WHY blogs like mine do so well in google and why so many people (like myself) use wordpress to get tons of traffic to their business. It’s 46 minutes long, so make sure to watch it when you have a decent blog of time to sit back, relax and absorb it all, but trust me, it’s 100% worth it because it’s VERY informative. If you are interested in Making Money Online, these are things that you MUST know.
In Summary:
- Wordpress ROCKS!! Use it if you want to boost your Search Engine Rankings
- Write relevant content.
- Write on a regular basis
Many people try to do all kinds of crazy tactics to boost Search Engine Rankings, but the BEST, and longest lasting way of ranking well is to provide high quality content on a regular basis that is relevant to the topic of your blog. Wordpress has MOST of the technology taken care of, the rest is up to you.
If you are interested in starting a blog, you should choose a host that has Fantastico installed on their accounts. You don’t need to know all the details about it, except that Fantastico allows you to install a wordpress blog (and a bunch of other stuff) at the click of a button. It’s really that simple. The hosting company that I use and HIGHLY recommend is Hostgator.
Now, I’m sure you have some comments or even questions. I would LOVE to hear them, so go ahead and leave them below.
